"A chase is going on"

After chasing her for 3 whole minutes, it suddenly dawned on me that I was ridiculously unfit. I took quick breaths as I took sharp corners along the school building behind her.

How can she run so fast in this stupid uniform and 5 inch heels?

The crowd of students on the compound was not making the chase any easier. Don't these people watch movies? You move out of the way when a chase is going on, not stand in the way.

"Amelia!" I called out once more.

My battered, machine powered lung could not keep up. If I knew I'd have to chase her around the school, I would have brought my pump.

I was losing stamina and I saw a girl with a hefty biology book so I decided to go with the old plan Z. Plan Z worked every time, well except for that time with Mr. Anderson.

I quickly grabbed the book from the girl as I ran.

"Hey, that's mine!"

I looked back at her and shouted, "Sorry but I really need this, I'll return it soon though!"
