Chapter 1
The Gun Shot

They were getting closer. They were running as fast as they could and it was still no good. They had no choice in the matter. He had to ask her to do it.
"I am only going to ask you this once. Please just do it Kaitlin." Jonathon called out and the girl with him agreed to his plea.
"O-okay" Kaitlin stopped and faced the men chasing them. She was an average sized girl with long blonde hair and striking green eyes. Her skin was quite pale and looked even brighter in the darkness of the night.
With one sudden thought the people stopped chasing Jonathon and Kaitlin and looked suspicious. Kaitlin hadn't concentrated enough on what she was doing and then suddenly one of them lifted their guns and shot.  He closed his eyes, waiting. Waiting for the searing pain too take over his body. Jonathon didn't know what to expect. He had always wondered what dying would feel like. But the possible pain never came. At first he thought that it had been done so quickly he hadn't even known it had happened. But he was wrong. He opened his eyes, not knowing what he was going to see. He might possibly see the foretold clouds in the sky or maybe even the fiery and endless depths of hell. But he was not expecting to see what he saw at all. He looked down and there she was, lying, dead.
"No…no, no, no, no, why was it you? Why couldn't it have been me?!" Jonathon knelt down beside her lifeless, bloodied body. He knelt there, Kaitlin lying dead in his arms, her blood all over him. "Kaitlin… Kaitlin I love you. I love you more than anything." He couldn't almost bring these words to his lips. He felt as though someone had hold of his throat and was squeezing so hard he could just barely speak. "Why did it have to be you? Why? Oh Kaitlin. I love you" Jonathon pulled her close to him and hugged her tightly, never wanting to let her go. He knew he had to but he just couldn't bring himself to do it. He just sat there. Jonathon kissed her on the forehead and then laid her down. "It's time to sleep baby, you're in a better place now. I'll be with you soon." He knelt there for a moment crying, staring at her body. He had to go. Jonathon was sure that he heard police sirens in the distant. People most probably heard the gun shot and called the police. He got up and slowly walked down the alleyway, hands and chest covered in Kaitlin's blood.
Chapter 1 of the story I am working on at the moment. It is a fantasy 'superhero' story. It will be very long but I am hoping that the quality is good and that you all like it.

Enjoy!

*Edit*
The characters in this story are all of my own twisted imagination and any relevance to any other story is completely by chance.
