IT WAS GUNSHOTS!!!
I opened my door and watched as some person in dark clothes was firing towards the front of my building. The walls of the 3rd floor walkway offering enough cover to hide me from whoever was there. Just down the hall I could hear someone coming up the stairwell and I barely managed to get back to my door before a second person ran out into the hall. Through the small opening I was able to see a smaller person bolt from the opening, gasping for air. It was obvious they had been running for a while, and they looked terrified.
I don't know what came over me, if it was the fear in their eyes or the twinge of what could be recognition when I saw their face, I just don't know.
I called to them, opened my door and got them inside. We sat in silence as this mystery assailant passed my floor, unaware our presence. Barely got to turn around before they fainted on my floor. What now?
