The Truth</span>
It was a sunny Wednesday morning. The air smelled fresh as though it had just been rejuvenated. The ground moist from the previous rain the night before. A girl pulls into a driveway in her white Jeep. From outside the car you can barely make out Evanescence playing. She honks the horn and looks at the clock. Its reads 7:21.
Hearing the horn from out side, John looks out the window, seeing his friend waiting. He grabs his book bag and runs down the stairs. Walking into the garage he hits the garage door opener. The chains pulling the door rattle as it opens. As John gets in the car, he throws his bag in the back seat. “Sorry about that.” said John as he closed the door. “ I was up last night doing homework and I fell asleep on my books and I forgot to set my alarm.” The lie seems real enough. Enough to make Melissa change the subject to the test that was to be given out it first period. A test John had no time to study for.
As the white Jeep pulled into the school parking lot, Melissa looked around for a spot. John notices a black Mercedes sitting in front of the school. Inside he barley makes out two faces. One of them is an assassin for the KGB. “Oh my Gosh.” John says as he leaned back in his seat. “We need to leave”
“Why?” asked Melissa in amazement of John’s sudden out burst.
“I can’t tell you. You just need to drive. We have to get out of here now.” Melissa, believing John hit the accelerator and rushed through the parking lot. She swerved around the corner barely missing another car. The driver of the Mercedes notices the Jeep and John inside.
“That’s him!.” The driver exclaimed in his deep voice to the passenger. The Mercedes speeds up behind the Jeep.
Melissa can see the stop lights that are 300 feet in front of her.
“It’s red. I can’t go!” Melissa exclaimed wondering what to do.
“Yes you can. Run it!” John yelled as he pushed Melissa foot on to the pedal. The car accelerated. swerving to the left as an oncoming car barley missed it. The other car hit its brakes coming to a stop. The car behind it smashed into it pushing the other car forward. John looks back as the cars pile up. He notices the Mercedes driving through the grass. “felgercarb!” John said as he punched the dash board.
“What?” Melissa asked as she sped down the road.
“They’re still following us. We need to get on the interstate.” John said as he looked in the rearview mirror. “Take a right here!” The car made a sharp right missing another car. “There! The entrance to the left!” Melissa sped into the oncoming lane, and down onto the entrance ramp. John looked back. The Mercedes was still behind them.
As Melissa made it onto the interstate she sped up to 90. “What is going on?” She yelled at John. Not paying any attention to Melissa and noticing the Mercedes catching up to them, John grabbed his back pack. He threw it down in front of him. He unzipped the front pocket exposing a gun. Melissa noticed this and yelled “You have a gun!” John grabbed a grenade out of the pocket and put it into the gun.
“When I say it, hit the brakes and turn right!” John ordered Melissa.
“What?” Melissa asked
“Now!” Listening to John, Melissa slammed on the brakes and turned the steering wheel. The cars wheels slid across the ground as it spun to the right. John pulled the gun out of the window and pointed it at the Mercedes. His finger came down on the trigger and a grenade flew out of the gun heading straight for the Mercedes. As it hit the car, flames flew out as it exploded and flew forward into the air, flipping. The Jeep spun back around and Melissa hit the accelerator again. The car raced through traffic.
“What is going on. Tell me now or I will stop the car!” Melissa exclaimed.
“I know your not going to believe me,” John replied. “but I am a secret agent for MI5.”
