Myles



Myles was strolling slowly on his way to school on a normal Friday morning. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a packet of cigarettes and lit one up to pass the time. It was a long walk for Myles to Peter Hill High, He wished that he never had lost his licence and could be at school in half the time. As Myles approached the school he hadn’t seen a sole on his way to school which was weird. Myles was running to try and making it to class in time. Bang! Myles stubbled landing face first on the road. Myles was in excruciating pain from the fall and wondered what he had tripped on. As he got up with a face full of gravel and a blood stain shirt he had wondered how he tripped over and gazed around the area. Myles looked around and saw a glimmer of a shining chrome object. Myles approached closer and could believe what he was seeing.

Myles picked up the gun and read the scribing on the barrel it was a Smith & Wesson. Myles was debating wether he should leave it or take it with him. After playing around with the 9mm he decided to put it in back of his trousers and keep walking. Myles was in so much pain from the fall he couldn’t believe he had found a gun. Myles could see flashing lights in the distance and didn’t know if he should get rid of the Smith & Wesson but instead covered it with his shirt. He saw the light’s were coming from in the petrol station and walked in to the shop the buy a drink.
As he approached the counter a police officer said to Michael “Did you see a man running down Possible Nom Ave this morning?”
Myles replied in a shaky voice “No sir.”
The police officer questioned Myles about the blood on his shirt and persisted that he should get it cleaned.
Myles said “I’ll be ok, I just fell over before”.
The officer took Myles to the ambulance to get him cleaned up, as the paramedic took of his shirt to clean the wound he saw the Handel of the Smith & Wesson. The Office Shouted “We found the Guy.” And was approached by four police officers. Myles was in shock jittering every word that he said he couldn’t get his story out straight of how he found the gun on the way to school and decided to take it.

Might I suggest the word "he" more often? Repeating the name over and over gets annoying.
