Criminal Ch. 4

Adam's POV

After a few hours of walking in the forest, I finally got to my destination. The railway station. I was gonna go to another city for a while so that I wouldn't have to hide so much, since I knew that they weren't looking for me all over the country yet. And I actually wasn't going to buy a ticket to the train. I'm just gonna jump into one of the carriages when the train was about to leave.

I then sneaked to the train that was just about to leave and jumped into one of the carriages and hid behind the big wooden boxes that were there. There luckily was some wheat bags there and so I wouldn't have to sit on the hard floor for hours. Though after a while, I found out that I could've picked a better carriage, because some man started to load sheep into the carriage. I sighed and just stayed hidden behind the boxes until the man closed the doors and left. This is just great. I'm stuck in this carriage with almost twenty sheep for hours. Well, if they fall to sleep, I can go to sleep with them. They'll keep me warm and all. And this is just the positive thinking again. I thought and smiled a bit as I stretched and then got up and went to see how my travelling companions would react to me.

And as soon as the sheep saw me, they moved closer to me and bleated  a bit, but didn't seem angry or scared or anything. And as the sheep got used to me, they laid down to the floor and weren't bothered by me coming to sit down between them and the big sheep I leaned back to didn't do anything to get me to go away. And so, I soon fell to sleep.

Then, after a few hours, I woke up to the feeling and the sound of the train slowing down and eventually stopping. And as I got up and peeked out from the carriage, I saw that we were in the middle of nowhere. I wonder why we stopped. I'm quite sure that here's no train station here. I then thought as I went to get my things from behind the wooden boxes.

And just as I walked back amongst the sheep and sat down, the doors of the carriage opened and the guy who had loaded the sheep there and two cops jumped into the carriage.

"Have you seen this man?" One of the cops then asked from the guy and showed him some picture.

"I don't think I have. Who is he?" The guy asked with a strong Italian accent.

"He's Adam Lambert. A criminal. Robbed the central bank of L.A. If you see him, call us." The other cop then said. The guy then just nodded and then he and the cops started to search the carriage, trying to find me.

Shit! Those cops are looking for me! I need to get out from here before they find me. And how do they even know I'm here? I thought while hiding between the sheep that were all awake now and were gathered close to each other, so they were a perfect hiding place for me. I was just waiting for a perfect moment to escape now.

And I didn't have to wait for long. Because soon, the cops and the guy walked behind the wooden boxes and so they couldn't see me sneak out. And so, I slowly got up, trying to not to startle the sheep. And as they stayed quiet, I carefully and quietly walked to the open doors. And as I got there, the cops were still behind the wooden boxes and so I quietly jumped out from the carriage and looked around, checking if there were any other cops nearby. And as there wasn't, I quietly started to walk towards the beginning of the train.

And as I got to the first carriages, I saw an empty police car in there and so I knew the cops had checked these carriages already. And because of that, it'd be safe for me to hide in one of them. I then started to look at them and soon saw that one carriage had a broken window. This was my lucky day.

I smiled a bit as I then climbed in through the window and landed to the floor of the carriage safely. Though I did get a wound from the broken glass and it was bleeding now. I then took a extra T-shirt from my bag and wiped the blood away, wincing a bit as the fabric touched the cut. I need to go to see a doctor because of this. It's pretty deep. I then thought while wrapping the t-shirt around the wound to stop the bleeding. Then, I just sat down to the darkest corner of the carriage and waited for the train to start moving. And soon, I fell to sleep again. I hadn't slept so well last night, because the other criminals had been partying in the pub on the first floor of the motel, so I was pretty tired now.

Then, after a few hours, I again woke up to the train stopping.
