Chapter 1

Saphira

‘Thank god!’ she exclaimed, as she parked her stolen Jeep in front of a pharmacy. It was 1:00 am. She broke the window, and opened the door. It leaded to some very polished stairs. She looked at them suspiciously, suspecting maybe it might be a trap. She stared at them for 3 seconds more, and smiled. ‘There is no way they could have known!’ she said ‘that I was going to enter THIS pharmacy, and walk through THIS door and climb through THIS stairs’. She climbed until she found a door. She entered a wide, big room, full of medicines. She hurried and looked for some, knocking down every single one down as she desperately searched. ‘Fuck! Fuck!! FUCK!! Where is it!!’ she said. She was a normal teenager, still, there was something of her that you know is different from everybody else. She was absolutely gorgeous, red headed, just a little short, slim body, she had blue jean shorts, with chains hanging from there is supposed to be a belt. A t-shirt with the phrase: “These hazel eyes will break your heart.” She was more beautiful than any girl… still… she had her eyes tired with deep black marks... normal to a person who hasn’t slept in more than one night.. Those made part of her charm disappear. She finally found a little red box with 20 pills in it. She read it, then took two pills in her hand and examined them ‘this will do’ she said as she hurried and swallowed them. The other pills where putted in her bag. ‘Must stay awake, must stay awake, must stay awake, must…’ she said as she tried her hardest to stay awake. Slowly, her eyes closed, she was falling asleep…she could feel her muscles relax for the first time in a month… ‘NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!’ she opened her eyes widely, or at least as widely as she could… she couldn’t fall asleep. No, never. ‘What have you’ve been thinking?!’ she thought. Suddenly someone hit the door very hard. She instantly stood up, then she approached to the door, looked through a hole that was in the door to look at two officers. One fat, one slim. Her heart and adrenaline went like craaaaazy. And she frightened at the thought of dying of a heart disease when one of the officers, the fat one, said to his companion: ‘ok, bring it down. That little bitch must be stuck there already…’ she ran to the other side of the building. This was definitely not cool. Not cool at all! She searched again desperately for another door, a back door… of course there wasn’t a back door! They were at the fourth floor! She spotted an air conduct, that, for the way it looked, no one had used it in years… nor cleaned it. Still she had no choice. ‘That door isn’t going to stand forever…’ when she was about to get inside of it, she spotted another one just behind her. This looked cleaner, and more useful… ‘Ok saphy, concentrate now… what air conduct should I go? This dirty one leads to the center of the city, where I can easily sneak out to a street without being spotted…these one, whoever, leads to the “lily’s spa” basement... No one ever goes down there!’ she sneaked in triumphaly as the 2 officers knocked down, finally the door. The fat one, covered with sweat, said to the slim one ‘so, mike, this is another escape of hers.’
