Anywhere You Run Novels & Stories

EUDORA. “Run. Keep running. Don’t you dare look back. Run far away from here. I will guide you. I know you do not want me but I will lead you to where you are meant to be. Where you don’t have to feel threatened by anyone, a place where you don’t have to be ashamed of me. Run, Eudora. Run.” And I did.

Run. I’m barefoot running through the forest. I can’t remember how I got here, but I know I gotta get the fuck out. My legs are moving faster than my feet. I can’t keep up. Shit. I fall to the ground and quickly bounce back up into my sprint. The rocks and roots under my feet don’t even hurt. I reach the highway.

It is better to run individually to wherever your heart leads than to run in a group The night erupted into chaos. Our bodies moved in different directions, each of us darting through the underbrush like frightened animals. My lungs burned as I pushed myself forward, my eyes fixed on the maze of trees ahead.

Mindlinking the Beta to see where patrol is now, I hate scaring people 'Hey, I want to go out for a run, where is good now without disturbing anyone? 'Go to the North East, you'll have about 20 minutes of peace then you can head North for another 30, want company?' 'Not tonight, just need a break, want to run without holding back' 'Haha very funny! Be careful my princess' 'I will, promise' As I headed out, I put my clothes next to a tree before shifting.

I didn’t know where I was, but the more I ran, the bigger wherever I was became. “James! Help me!” I screamed as I ran. Where could I be? What could be happening to me? Why was this animal after me? What have I done? I continued to run, as fast as I could. I wasn’t a good runner, but I ran with all my might this time; I was in the face of danger; I couldn’t act weak. I began to pray as I ran; whoever was around should help me, that the heavens sent me help, but it seemed as though the heavens were sleeping at that moment.

"You are not alone." I closed my eyes. "Then tell me why it feels like I should run." Silence then finally. "Because it's in your nature to run."

Amie was in the kitchen, drinking some water. "I thought I heard you moving around, slow poke," she teased. "Five more minutes and you would have run alone." "Good morning to you too, wild thing." "Where's the best place to run?" she asked, stretching. I drank close to a quart of water, before I answered. "The side street outside goes into a closed neighborhood. Nice sidewalks and pretty sparsely populated, with big yards and a small park. I imagine it's a couple of miles around, so it should be a decent run."

She snorts. “And where exactly would you find such a mythical land?” I shrug, trying to sound casual. “Eh … somewhere far. Like … I don’t know … South Africa, for instance.” I take a breath as the thought lands. The idea settles more heavily than I expect. “Just think — my kid could grow up around monkeys and giraffes and … nature and stuff.” Yeah. Running has definitely crossed my mind. A place with no D. No Chloe. No chaos breathing down my neck. Just distance. Just quiet. Just safety.

I would have to make sure to say far away from them, seeing how I did not know what they did. Mr. Griffen stood in front of us as we stood at the starting line. With a cocky smirk on his face. He looked right at me as he spoke to the group of "newbies," as he called us. I smiled right back at him. "All right, as I said before, other students who passed in previous years will try to make you fail. Also, the five with the slowest times will be disqualified as well. So run fast and think fast. The first thing you do is you must army crawl as fast as you can and select two weapons or tools to help you with this then with the selected items you must scale the twenty-foot wall and make it to the o

I'll be a dead meat, when that happens. My legs are already numb from running miles. I even beat the marathon. I looked back to make sure they weren't following me. I was silently praying. I almost cried while running. I pity myself. Running in an unfamiliar place. Being chased by bad people. Don't even know where to go. There's no one to help. I wanted to cry. But I can't. I just can't believe I'm coming to this point in my life. Never in my wildest dreams that it would happen.
