the witnesses book 1

I was waking to school when a guy in his car. hey cutie he would shout from the inside of his car so I kept walking as he drove a bit faster

scared for my life. I started running to the school. i was so close I could almost feel it but the car stopped in front of me so I stopped running I was too tired to fight or yell and too scared to run home. so I stood my ground WHAT! I yelled at him. trying to be intimidating too no avail he pulled out a knife then said I was calling you why didn't you stop and answer he said. at this point my momma tought me a lot of things on dealing with scum like this. she would always tell me their is a time to get yourself up and fight and a time to be smart this was a time to be smart. so I told him we're a mile away from school grounds I could just yell for help he started to laugh at the idea then responded ok how long will it take me to put this knife in ya skull compared to who hears ya do you really think they make it on time. knowing that he was right I'd have to think of something smarter but then a woman out of the woods she smelled at us. as she said that time isn't on either of our sides. but then the man interrupted her what are you some type of Time keeper. yes she replied moving out of the shadows. I was stunned by her beauty but what really caught my attention was her eye. instead replaced with a clock ticking. then the man screamed and tried but she threw a hatchet in his head. no witnesses are allowed to live. then she turned to me walking close smiling then she replied now what to do with you...
