Swarlie

She was getting coffee when she saw them. men in suits talking to her friends. she texted one of them,asking who they were.he didnt know,no names,but they were looking for a ‘Swarlie’ That confirmed it.they were looking for her.

She didn’t know why, but guys in suit asking for her by alias was never good news
she left quickly.climbing a fence,she found herself in the school next to hers.she left with a group of people.A bus passed by and she got on.didn’t matter where she was going.

As they drove away,she got her phone out and tweeted.’MIB at school,asking about me. Got away for now. If I vanish,you know’ she knew it was dangerous,but she figured it was better if someone knew.

She couldn’t go home. better to get out of town before it was too late. she went to the train station. she bought a ticket for whatever train was leaving soon.

She got on.it was fairly empty. when she felt it move,she felt herself relax,if only just a bit.she needed to regroup.
