Her breathing was strained and frantic and her eyes were popping out of her head as she keeled over in the dark alleyway. The distressed beating of her heart was just gaining in tempo as the memory of the last thirty minutes played in a loop. A thundering explosion went off down the street. She gritted her teeth and looked back only seeing the billowing cloud of smoke pouring from the building. She pulled herself back into the alleyway, daring herself not to look. Even so she glanced back again before she took off running down the street. London was buzzing as usual but the explosions had stopped the restless population in their tracks.

Yes, time was a man made concept with no bearing in the advanced age of society but that didn't mean she wasn't late.  She jumped out of bed hurriedly and cursed herself as she dragged her clothes on. She was going to be late. Why was she always late? Half-falling, half-running, she rushed down the stairs and flew out of the door as she set off running, towards Bannerman Road.
