Running down the alley, with a hailstorm of bullets chasing me, destroying everything around me. I turned the corner of the alleyway and ran around the dumpster and took a seat. I had to think fast those goons could have started to follow me. Looking in front of me, I saw a cat drinking from a bowl of milk. Hearing voices coming down the alleyway, quickly I got up and made a mad dash for the door. I must have frightened the cat because it made a noise and leaped away. Opening the door, I went inside and shut the door behind me. The shop was dark and quiet, which was strange for a bakery at this hour. The likely hood of me tripping an alarm was very low because the back door was open but I was only buying so much time, it was only a matter of time before they find me. Looking around the shop, I looked for a place to hide, so I can find a place to collect my thoughts and bid a little more time. Near the big table in the room, there was a closet. Walking in, I sat on the floor and caught my breath.
Sitting down next to a large bag of flour, I took a deep breath. Shit, how did this happen? All I wanted to do was have a nice night and relaxed in my new apartment. After searching all over the city, I finally found the divine pastry, but that plan went to hell.
Suddenly, I heard the back door open. The person walked in and turned on the light. It started to shine at the bottom of the door, revealing their shadow. Darn, I thought I would have had a lot more time; these guys were relentless. But everything would be fine if I just stayed quiet.

Then my phone chimed. In the middle of the chase I didn't silence my phone. I was completely fucked. Reaching into my pocket, it was Syd again. "Hey are you okay? Call me as soon as you can." she texted. I didn't have time to answer her, so I turned off my phone.
I could hear the footsteps move closer to the door. The person knew where I was at, and the possibility of me getting out of here with a friendly chat was very low. My only option was to fight. I looked around frantically for anything that could be a weapon. There was only a rolling pin; beggars can't be choosers, I guess. I grabbed the kitchen tool and readied myself for a fight.
I could see their shadow completely over took the door, the knob turned, and the door opened.

Chromesight
After three centuries, post-industrial civilization threatens to shatter. Megacorporations accrue enormous power by linking together nations turned insular in the aftermath of yesterday's global multilateralism; a reinvigorated United Nations threatens the crumbling sovereignty of state by enforcing human rights independently of member nations, and the UN and others patrol for mass destruction technologies in the ever-accelerating, ever-democratizing arms race. Another environmental collapse looms, visions of the last haunting memories and consciences of the lower and middle classes around the globe. That is the reality that virtual child Colton is rehabilitated into. A system shock, a brave new world and above all a regurgitation. Rescued from being a tool in cyberspace and grown a new body, Colton couldn't care less about the new meatspace world. He wants to go back, back to the electronic glow that was his home. - - - - This is a MyNoWriMo entry. Lesser known than NaNoWriMo, MyNoWriMo takes place in January and is otherwise exactly the same. The goal is to finish this as quickly as possible and then possibly circle back and tidy things up. In the meantime there'll be no editing and helter-skelter story planning since I didn't do it beforehand :/

Digital Immigrant
This is the story of how James Allen Quick and Sarah Lynn Abernathy died. By 'died', I mean that their hearts stopped, their brains ceased sending electrical impulses, and all other physical functions terminated. Immediately after which, their bodies were placed into an industrial furnace, reduced to ash, and the ash was spread about in one of the last forest reserves in North America. As ash-spreading locations go, this ranked third. First and second places were, of course, a person’s favorite athletic team’s playing field and the sea. Or rather, I should say that this is how the story begins. You see, it’s what came after that is so interesting.
