It's behind me it's getting closer and closer all I can think is run Zyla run with a sudden jolt of the train I felt it was coming I tried to get up but as I did another jolt. I could feel its hot breath upon me, I closed my eyes knowing this would be the end
"Zyla we are about 5 hours away do you want anything to eat" I sat up and took off my sleeping mask. it was just a dream witch would be fine but I have visions of the future
"Sure can I have a bagel, Alora I had another vision"
" Let me get the food then you can tell me about it" Alora is my best friend. We are on a train going across the border. Our country is infested with police. They are hunting for any of us that have superhuman powers. Alora can read minds but only if she is touching the person.
We are escaping to the neighbor country where it's not like this we had to pretend we were just going there for a business meeting the trip is dangerous but we just needed to get out of there before it gets worse if they find out that we are escaping they will kill us. When Alora comes back with our bagels we sit and eat, while we eat I tell her about my horrible vision. “Wow that's harsh we must be very careful, and if you have another vision tell me” I nodded visions are hard to tell if they are going to happen or not. The beast in my vision was one of our home countries guard dogs they are genetically modified to be mean and giant like the size of a 6ft human it's one hour until we have to switch trains the visitors district is closed off so you can't leave unless you have a specialty badge so we will have to find a way to get a badge and leave so we can finally be free and explore a world with not so many rules and restrictions where I can wear whatever I want and go wherever I want. “ what if we just hide on the train and ride through to the city” whispered Alora I looked to see if anyone could hear us
“I think we should get off the train at the stop based on my vision” I responded
“Your right what was I thinking” she stated I fell back asleep this time I did not have a vision. I woke up to a screech and a jolt of the train stopping then we got off we walked into a building that is all white. We walked out and saw hotels, business buildings, and stores. As I look across the path there is a teen girl getting dragged away by the police. That's when I noticed her friends saying she is a witch because she has powers like me. Then we see a tram taking people out of the city to other countries. We must get on and off without getting caught. We went to the line of passengers somehow we got on. We had to wait for a while because of technical difficulties. Then we met a boy on the train.
“Hi I'm Leon,” he said we introduced ourselves, he was there on a “business trip” too even though he looked younger than us and we were pushing it. About an hour into the trip out he asked “are you escaping” Alora and I looked at each other knowing we were caught we denied it “I'm escaping too” he stated I could not tell if he was smart or dumb for telling us. There are only two choices to help him. He may help us or turn him in running the risk of being caught. There is only one choice that makes full sense we told him about everything my visions and her powers. He can shapeshift into anything. So then it was all of us working together to be free. So we can experience life free and not be in hiding. I can't wait. I can feel my nerves bubbling up in my stomach. Alora felt this happening and got me some tea. It had something that helped me fall asleep. I woke up in the middle of the forest. We are halfway there and the train stopped and the doors open. It's the police they are here they know about us.
“ We know about the stowaways on this train” they look around we all sink in our seat. They start to take people out. I tell Alora to lock herself in the restroom she protests at first and sees the look in my eyes and does it. They are almost to us they take Leon first. He walks out of the train and I hide they bring in the dog. It could smell me that's when I started to run. It's behind me it's getting closer and closer all I can think is run Zyla run with a sudden jolt of the train I fell it was coming I tried to get up but another jolt I could feel its hot breath upon me I closed my eyes knowing this would be the end. I opened my eyes again and the dog briefly changed into Leon and back to the dog, it's him! I got up and yelled at Alora. She came out of the bathroom and she screamed when she saw Leon then she recognized him. “Stop” yelled the police, of course, we ignored them.
“Get on my back quick” Leon exclaimed we hoped on then busted through the door and hopped out as we looked back we saw the police running after us Leon started to run the feeling was so good the wind, letting my hair fly, the fresh cool breeze filling my lungs with joy. We get off Leon's back. He shifts back smiling at us. We all fall into the long soft grass and look at the clouds shifting now we are free
