Chapter 299: Finding help

ANTHONY’S POV

I slowly stood up as I looked down at my body that was hurting all over. I could see the blood dripping down my arms but I could couldn’t see the colour in.

"Marco are you okay?" I asked him. As I turned to look at him he has dropped to the ground.

"Yeah," he coughed out as he stood up as well. He away the dust from his .

"Come back here!" We heard the man from inside the estate said he sounded like he was climbing up the wall.

"Yeah!" He replied in pain.

"We have to go now," I said.

We immediately started running. There was a field that contained long dry grass that came up to our necks. Almost couldn’t see anything where we were. There were no other house was directly next to Uncle’s estate.

"There’s a road in this direction," Marco said as he guided me whilst we ran.

I squinted my eyes and tried to see the road ahead but couldn’t see much.It was kind of dark, with the moonlight serving as our primary source of light. I was trusting Marco’s word. He lived here for a long time so I knew he knew the area well. It when i saw the lights of a car passing by that I finally comfirmed that there was a road.

We had to get to the open area ahead now.

As we neared the road I hoped another car would pass by that we could signal for help.

I heard the voice of the man behind us in the distance. We had to distance ourselves from him.

We were about to reach a road when I saw two figures round the corner ahead from the wall. they flashed flashlights in our direction.

"They must be here," I heard one of them say. They had come from uncle’s estate. The other man had already told on us.

Marco and turned behind us to the direction we had come from and saw the other man who was chasing after us flashing his own light from behind us and catching up fast.

"They are coming from both sides!" Marco said in a panic.

"This way," I said to him. I pulled his arm and had us run in the opposite direction from the estate. We would run parallel to the road.

We ran as fast as we could knowing there were three people chasing after us. My foot caught on soemthing and i almost trip.

Marco grabbed my arm and oulled me back so i could continue running with no issue. "Careful, the ground isn’t even since the house is kind of on a hill."

I recalled when we first arrived. Throught the tinted windows I saw the house was in a hilly area where there few houses spread out across the mountain. I remember seeing atleats two other houses on the drive to the estate. Perhaps we could ask the neighbors for help if there weren’t any cars that passed by.

We were currently running downhill.

As the minutes passed on as we ran, I heard the foosteps behind us draw closer to us. Where are they?" A man yelled. Their voices sounded close as well.

I looked behind and my eyes widened in fear.

I realized we were in trouble. We weren’t going to get far before we got caught. They were a few metres behind us and their flashlights were soon going to land on us. Not to mention there were even more flashlights flashing further in the distance.

"We have to hide," I told Marco bretahlessly.

"Okay," he replied tired as well.

We were getting tired now as well. We couldn’t keep running forever.

"There is an area not far from here down the hill with large rocks in the grass we can hide behind them.

It was moments later when Marco pulled my arm and directed us where to go.

"Here," Marco said as he slipped down the hill and to an area with large rocks. We immediately let tried.

We hid behind the first rock and immediately began to take haggard breaths as we caught our breaths.
