Tom’s hair dropped in front of his eyes as he scrambled to climb up the rocks. The dogs snapped at his ankles.
“Just give up now Tom” Phil’s voice could be heard below him. One of the dogs jumped up, tearing off a piece of his pant leg, along with some skin. The dogs began climbing, finally finding traction on the rocks. Tom scrambled up faster throwing down rocks covered in blood from his knuckles. He pulled himself up as the snarling dogs below made their way up. He limped as fast as he could to the abandoned church waiting for him above.Tom dragged his shotgun with him. He sat down in the church and checked his ammunition. None. He threw his gun across the room. He stood up and wiped the blood from his lips.
“Find him...” Tom jumped behind the podium as one of the dogs could be heard. He held his breath. One of the dog’s nose came from around the corner. His pupils shrank as their eyes met. The dog snarled before letting out a howl. Phil came around, he peered down at Tom.
“Can I have those files now?” Tom looked away from him. Phil smirked and grabbed his jaw, turning Tom’s head back to his own.
“Now where are you hiding them huh?” Tom spat in his eye. Phil dropped his jaw and stumbled back wiping his eye. Tom propped himself up and kicked his gut before elbowing him in the nose. He ran out the door, still limping.
“Gahh GET HIM!” Phil pointed to Tom while still holding his nose. One by one the dogs chased out after him barking. Phil took out his pistol and shot out the door aimlessly. Tom hurried as fast as he could across the thin bridge. The dogs caught up fast. There was a stinging pain in his not already broken leg. He wasn't even halfway across when he fell on his stomach and skidded across the stone. One of the dog growled and bit at him, taking out a piece of his leg. Phil strolled up.He turned Tom on his back. He grabbed his collar and hung his head over the cliff.
“You going to tell me now?!” Phil leaned Tom closer to the edge. Tom shook his head in disagreement. Phil lifted him up then let him go. Tom’s weight shifted over his body went over. He caught the edge with his bloody hands. Phil put his foot over Tom’s fingers and smirked.
“D-did y-you want t-these?” Tom pulled a manila envelope out from under his coat. He smirked as he let go, plummeting into the misty water below. Phial screamed. His voice echoed throughout the ravine. Meanwhile below, Tom pulled himself out of the rushing river. He crawled over to a small tree and began digging a hole. He folded the envelope and covered it over. The dogs started up again, catching his scent. Tom got up and ran until he was tackled by the dogs. Phil came up laughing and smirking. He put his pistol to Tom’s head and pulled the trigger. Tom’s limp body laid there on the ground with a smile still on his face.
