I walked slowly and cautiously down the abandoned street, looking behind me every few seconds. This was the hardest part of going scouting…getting back to base without being followed there.
I was a few minutes from the ruined theater we used as base. Suddenly I heard something behind me. I turned around but there was nobody there.
Now for the fun part I thought to myself.
I began walking again but instead of going straight to the base i took a little detour. I turned into and alleyway, looking behind me once more and began to run.
I heard the footsteps behind me pick up into a run as well.
Quickly and quietly I jumped up on to the first fire escape I came to, crouched down pulled out my saber and waited.
The person stopped running as they came into the alleyway and began looking for me. As soon as he was right under the fire escape I was on I quietly got up and jumped down right in front of him.
He didn’t even have time to pull out his weapon before mine stabbed into his body, and he fell.
