The Big Fall

"Trust me," she whispered in a velvety voice as we ran to under the Big Ben. I knew it wasn't the right thing to do, but what other choice did I have? I’m Thomas Relian and the girl I’m running with is Scarlett Grayer. We’re running from the Drone Bone, a famous criminal whom we have… accidentally stole from.

"Come out, come out wherever you are," said a gruff voice. We just ran up the first flight of stairs and a bombardment of drones hit us! We ran to the top of the tower. Scarlett clearly wasn't much of a talker so I shut the door myself only to the utter horror of finding a back door.

"I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THESE GAMES!!!" Drone Bone shrieked and charged towards us. I quickly ducked out of the way. "AAAARRRGGGHHH!!!!!!" Drone Bone shrieked and fell to the ground. Instead of feeling happy like anyone should feel, I felt crestfallen; the excitement was over.

Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, a drone hit me on the back. I was too astonished to scream; instead, I plummeted towards the ground like a total idiot. That's when it happened. I felt like my organs went into my neck for a while, then a hand hauled me back up.

"Hold on, don't let go!" exclaimed Scarlett. As I relaxed, I blushed because as Scarlett pulled me up, she kissed me on the side of my cheek. I stared lovingly at her eyes and embraced her.

”Thomas Relian Jeffrey, do you accept Ms Grayor as your wife?” asked the priest, ”I do,” I replied.
