Vars

You walked quickly down the dark street, frantically searching your pocket for a weapon. Looking over your shoulder every few seconds, you quickened your pace, running faster and faster. You didn't look to see who was approaching; at that moment, you didn't care. You were trying to get away from Karl. He wanted to kidnap you, and possibly kill you; he was your fear. At first, Karl had won your heart, but after two years of dating, he became completely different, insane. Initially, he would raise his hand to you, but immediately stop, and five minutes later he would have a hysterical fit or panic attack. You tried to calm him, but he pushed you away, every time. It all escalated to the point where he no longer had panic attacks or hysterical fits; with a crazed smile, he could calmly beat you unconscious. ... You were practically running, and looking back once more, you bumped into someone. Turning to face the person, you apologized and quickly walked on. Your fear prevented you from recognizing the all-too-familiar face of the stranger—a pity, because the stranger was your bodyguard, Vars, whom your father had fired when you were 18. Vars was strong enough to protect you, but weak with words; he couldn't argue, but his speech was articulate. Vars recognized you immediately, and after you apologized and walked on, he stopped and looked at you and your surroundings. He understood—you were in danger. Vars ran to you and stopped you, quietly saying "....Stop and stay put, I'll help. But as soon as I say run - Run, turn around, and go wherever you can...." You recognized him – Vars, so you didn't disobey him and stood your ground. Vars approached Karl and started discussing something with him, but you couldn't hear what. A few seconds later, you heard a hoarse, quiet "aa" and Vars shouted to you. "Run!" For a second you turned around, then immediately ran – wherever your eyes could see, wherever your feet could take you. After what felt like an hour of running, you were in a park unfamiliar to you, and you sat down on a bench, your legs aching terribly.
