Chop Chop Chop Chop
I was beginning to be wake up. A sound like a tanker's propeller was all i could think about, then, weightlessness.
My eye's instinctively burst open, i see hazy, flashing lights below me, through a set of... goggles, i must still be dreaming, no this was more then a dream, i felt freezing cold air rushing past me.
I realize my situation, i was just thrown out of a helicopter.
"HOLY ****!"
I gather my senses and have no time to think about how this happened. I feel the parachute attached to my back, I knew the basics of how to operate one, from TV of course. I feel the air ripple around my body. I bring m wrist up to my body, the people who threw me out where kind enough to give me an altimeter, with a little red tick on 600 meters, that was the minimum safe distance. Welp. I was past that. I immediately look for a landing spot, but i'm still in the clouds. i'm coming in fast, to what looks like a concert. I pull the chute cord and the parachute begins to open as I fly thought the low clouds. The ground is rushing near me and i gasp for breath, not breathing on my way down. people are cheering and dancing, but the spot lights for the concert immediately lock onto me like like i'm escaping a prison. I see the figures on the stage run off stage as I bring in my (way to fast) landing. I pull back on both the cord i grabbed onto, launching me forward, the parachute this, thank god, still connected to me. I'm coming in way to hot for this to end well. I bend my knees and wince for impact. Just before I hit the ground, I am yanked back with a sharp rip! my parachute caught on the top of the dome shaped stage. I rocket forward like a pendulum, still attached to the parachute, and put my arms out front to brace myself against the bar rushing toward my face. I slow down and just parley stop before I hit the bar. I sigh with relief. Screams and gasps erupt from the crowd. I slowly start to stop my momentum, and the crowd cheers. Im still roughly 15 meters above the ground. Not thinking I hit the release button on the centre of my chest and I gasp as I do so. Time slows to a crawl as I lash my hand up and grab one of the straps on the harness. A shower of Profanity curls across my lips as I hang there. The crowd gasps, my body twirl towards them and i see black, shadowy figure stare at me as security ushers some of them out of harms ways. Some of them point at me and gasp. They must just think i'm so young, is that it? I see others bolt for the door as the crowd erupts into.... something? I hear noises of all kinds throughout the crowd, gasps, screams, yelling, plenty of yelling. A security pulls out a... gun? What the hell? This is Canada! Concert security does not have guns! The, what I guess to be a man, opens fire on me. My brain kicks into gear at the noise of gun fire. My gamer brain engages and I let go of the harness to get out of they way of gun fire. A shot nearly misses my head. I am to focused to yell at him or anyone else, the crowd is screaming and yelling as i see figures rush towards the different exits. I bend my knees and get ready to role on my impact.
SNAP!
guess not

I am not very social but I can be funny and entertaining when I wish to be, I am a good spirit and i am often told that i can be anything, i am quick to learn and observe, but i can be annoying sometimes. I have pasty white skin, not to pasty though, but i can never hold a tan. I am (obviously) human (male), i never though i would have to state that before today..... Funny

The snap and crunch of my broken (left) leg registered in my mind, but i could not care less about it at the moment.
"DAMN! That was my second favourite leg!" I clutch my leg. I let go as i heard the guard unloading rounds. Luckily a gust of wind loosened the parachute and it lid down over top of me. The parachute was a rainbow colour, for some odd reason. I grabbed the parachute and used it as cover, to prevent the man form knowing my exact position as it flopped in the wind, and nearly opened again.. i immediately started hobbling as fast as i could towards the back of the stage, trying to minimize the damage being done to my leg afterwards. I see a guard pop out of one of the exits concealed by a curtain near the back of the stage. The glare of the lights form back the stage prevent me from seeing his face. i see him reach for his belt, I trow the parachute onto him as the stupid guard near the front of the stage is still unloading his, apparently limitless about of bullets towards me, the guard sprawls out at i coat hanger him as he is tangled in the parachute. he gun slides along the concert floor and i swipe it up. i have no idea where i am. I don't think about it, thinking kills in these situations. I run thought the catacombs of concrete tunnels that run along the whole complex, the walls have a baby blue tint to them, i come to intersection after intersection, picking which ever one does not have yelling and screaming and the sound of boots running against the ground. I look down at my green cargo pants, and holder the gun into one of the packets, I pull a right on the next intersection and see a pair of doors with a sigh the reads emergency exit, alarm will trigger. I run up to the door and bash it open. the cool night air hits me once again. I hear people yelling and a crowd shifting in the distance of an empty parking lot, they are being ushered into the city centre, i'm surrounded by very tall buildings in my front. the streets are recognizable. what on earth? i'm still in my home city! I see a truck rolling up to the exit I just got out of. I duck behind some solid plastic, orange road barriers. the truck door opens and I hear four men pop out. I hear each of them charge their rifles. Rifles?!?!?! They brought assault rifles?!?! I got a glance of the men as they ran into the building lit building, I saw two G36Cs and two M14s. they where packing some serious fire power. I could not see any more then that as the parking lot was completely dark. But then... i see a.... tail? darting behind one of them men and slipping into the building just as the door closes. what the heck? No time to question. The men where dumb enough to not turn the truck off, i get in the drivers seat as the back door opens again, a figure stands in the light but its too dark to see his front. I shut the door and i put the car in drive, just as he start to open fire onto the truck.
"What the heck do these people what with me! Obviously death...." I speed out of the parking lot and I race past the line of people going into the city, I have tunnel vision and i race towards home, no streets blocked, nothing. I am going around 100 k/h inner city. a conga line of police cars round the corner behind me.
"UH! Crikey! leave me alone!" I often use words form other languages then swearing, i get puzzled looks more then anything. For some reason i decide to slow down and i pull over to the side of the empty down ton streets. I wont be going to jail for this, i just need to explain what happened. the cop cars all hit the breaks and the front to cars burst open, into the well lit street. i look into the rear view mirrors and see... a lion, and a bull and a cougar, and a wolf. "Furries? I'm getting hunted by a bunch of officers in uniform?" i chuckle a little, still on my toes. "they can't be real. Their faces.. move.... they... talk.." I see them in formation behind my car and the lion swishes behind him and puts it onto the shoulder of the bull in front of him
"F*ck this shit! I'M OUT!" I stomp on the gas peddle and i hear the sirens blare again as i speed away i look behind me and all but 2 cars are there. "What should i do! WHAT ON EARTH SHOULD I DO! this isn't right!" I hear a helicopter's blades chop through the air as he is in hot pursuit above me, giving my location to every one in the city, i'm sure of it. "I keep speeding down the one way street between the buildings. I immediately take a turn off onto one of the highways that goes out of city. The streets are always this empty 3 Am, as i glance at the clock, thanks got i did not have to put anyone.....Any.... Thing... in danger. I look around the care for thing of use, but.. the car is off, like it was meant for people with.. tails, and an assortment of other traits. Don't think, thinking kills, Act. I looked away to long and my tires fly overtop of a spike trap, i hear the tires pop. "Oh! Zis is not good!"
I know of a park near here, I could just get there.... I look behind me again and i turn around and an armoured swat truck appears in front of me. "you've got to be."
*CRASH! *
Thank god i put on me seatbelt. I hear the cars pull up to me as i am dazed, blood drips down my forehead and I black out.
