103 103 - The Person (1/2)

11:00 p.m., Red River City B District.

My name is Candace, every night after college class I have to come back by bus and then walk until I get home in the dark.

In the central areas of Red River it is relatively safe, but here around the periphery we have always heard reports of people dying the night before, people dying because they reacted to robberies, all sorts of deaths happen around here.

This year I passed the university entrance exam, the only thing I want is to get a good job when I graduate so that I can move with my mother and get her out of the danger of living here.

Today the bus was delayed a little because of an accident it had on the road and I arrived a little later than I normally do. In my normal schedule, some stores are still open and from time to time some people still walk through the streets, but today... it's all very quiet.

On the street are just me and another woman who got off the bus just before me and is walking with fast steps.

Usually in this kind of situation, I try to make friends with the person who is getting off the bus so that nobody walks alone and in case of danger we can help each other, but this woman got off so fast that I couldn't even talk to her for us to do it.

Suddenly I felt a horrible feeling that something bad would happen and my body would freeze. The next thing I knew, the woman was being dragged into a dark alley by three strong men.

I couldn't move, my legs were frozen in place and scared to death. I always heard about these cases that happened at night, but I never saw it... it seemed that the woman would suffer the worst fate that could happen to her... the three men went....

Just thinking about my eyes began to tear and I wanted to call the police to help her, but my body did not respond.

Suddenly, I saw a figure passing through the roof. I thought it might be a bird, or a cat, but it was too big for that. And the strange thing is that I didn't hear anything, even on this quiet street, the thing that went over the building didn't make any sound.

I forced my vision to try to see what it was and saw a person standing on the edge of the building looking down the alley that the woman had been kidnapped.

My heart had a little hope, I know I can't be irrational and think that a superhero will show up and save the day, but seeing that person standing on the building I couldn't help it.

Without me noticing it, my frozen body moved alone to see what was happening in the alley and what could happen.

When my vision reached that point, I saw one of the most desperate scenes of my life. The woman was crying as the three men took off her clothes to make...

With my irregular breathing, I looked up trying to see if that person was still looking at this scene and saw that yes. I didn't know if the person would help or not, so I took my cell phone and when I was going to call the police, the person jumped from the building.
