Running For Lives...

Running For Lives...

A Story by Surya
"

Three friends started on an adventurous trip ended up with a deadly surprise..

"

Bullets hitting roof of yacht, Windows damaged, Kim, John and I trembling with fear.

We were out on a trip and rented a yacht and was started on waters, kim opened a bottle of Champagne saying ’Kudos friends! finally we started for it, Let’s celebrate the moment, Ohh, wow!’,  kim was terribly happy where as John was balanced as me.

 We now celebrating our party moments on waters and all of a sudden kind of war started here but exceptional case is that we don’t know our enemies and their causes, actually we never seen them.

‘Ted, who are they? , why are they onto us?’,  Kim started to shiver with these questions to me, John on the other hand  confused with fear and anxiety knowing nothing to do.

‘Ted and Kim we gonna stick to each other! and lose these people, if in case that happens so,  we just f**k off from this island to our heavenly homes, Yeah not a joke!, now I feel our homes as heaven’  John exclaimed and demanded us in his dreadful voice.

But I have no brain of mine working to escape from this suspense, I just waited for them to give us a chance to run away, I can see there are three men on the boat coming to us with guns in their hands.one of them started shouting ‘You are done with your lives babies, haha!’ again a round of bullets flyed to us after his terrible compliment to us.

We started searching for any nearby land and we found some nearby, we jumped off from Yacht, started swimming, with their warnings and firings onto us, while swimming towards nearby land there are only two questions running in my brain, 1.There might be some mistake happened around so these guys chasing us instead of others, 2. Might be we people done something terrible last night after our drinks, as we were completely blackout, I can’t remember any s**t happened last night…

I got the point that I cannot solve my stupid yet needed doubts with them as they were in no mood to chat with me, They only needed three of us to be dead, and we on the other hand running for our lives in this unknown forest.

We got onto land and started running in three different directions losing contact of each other, Kim running as a deer struggling for life from cheetah towards north, John headed east and now I can’t see him, he was deep into trees and I headed south, we had no interest in sharing Ideas to save our lives except the fact that we were in a hurry to get far away from these hunters…

I guess am deep into forest now, alone,  walking, headed to nowhere, a bit peace now but it didn’t lasted for long, I heard someone firing weapons, and I realized that I have to start a marathon again..

Your vignette of a chase, of being hunted, is told with rapid breathlessness, it seems, as if the action is unfolding vividly. This pacing is the best part of your storytelling. I find it unusual that you describe FEELINGS as much or more than SURROUNDINGS! Not that this is bad thing, just unusual for action stories. I like knowing what the characters are thinking, but there could be more sensory descriptions -- of smells, sights, textures, colors, etc. All in all, a nicely-told compact story for the short-attention-spans online!

you don't have to miss it, its plenty here as you have done a great job
Positive always one side, and confused the other side. Dont club both, clarity is what you needed and I also.

Just out of my brain and heart. Its true, when somebody has two choclates, who wants to eat both, instead of sharing with friend, who doesnt want to be greedy. I am seeing a thin line, but still breaking that is what somebody is trying, to extend the pain in brain, instead of dreaming something else, being going to be busy soon, maybe trying to take advantage of free time. Sorry then.

Just few thoughts!! It doenst mean to anybody, unless they feel so.

As u say...atleast smiling now..:)
The starting was very abrupt but you managed to carry on a good story line and ended it nicely. You can improve on certain sentence formations, the beginning and give some more clear conversation.
This story at one point reminded me of the movie "HANGOVER". Good writing.

I felt you could give more details about the start.. It sounded too quick to me. But I liked the end. The way the friends ran for their lives sounds real enough. Could you be extending it?
Nicely penned. I enjoyed reading :)

Slowly clapping, what a crazy man, I know idle man's brain is like idiot's workshop. Whose brain is absent minded?
There is no need to start a marathon again, as I am fond of and missing my sixpacks man, eating fish now.

Just kidding! Really amazing, you missed one of four idiots.
