On hearing the door slam his mind became more alert and he realized he had to make an immediate exit. Security could be here at any minute. He grabbed his
Attaché case and headed for the emergency exit staircase. As he hurriedly ran
Down he heard the sirens of police cars in the streets below. For the first time in his life he panicked. He ran downtown into the streets. He seemed very suspicious as he was wearing a long black cape and running away from something in a hurry. This meant he had to be sneaky incase of the police stopping him. As he was heading for the subway a police car spotted him. He didn’t know what to do so he panicked and ran into the subways underground. The policeman caught him from behind and asked him several questions. Luckily the policeman did not know raven or had the slightest idea of what he had done, so he let him move on slowly through the subway. His cunning plan was to get the express train that ran through this subway and get out of the country.
The police went in to investigate what had happened. They looked vigorously around the apartment as one of the head policemen saw the minister’s body lying, slowly dying on the ground. As the policemen cordoned off the body to investigate they saw an elderly woman hiding under a desk. The policeman went to talk to her but couldn’t make out a word she was saying. The policeman went back to tell the other officers she was too shocked to talk when all of a sudden, she exclaimed A HAIR LIP, HE HAS A HAIR LIP! They managed to get more out of her. She said that he wore a long black coat and that she had been in this room all this time. The policeman said that his only way to escape was through the emergency exit.
The chief police man informed all the police men on duty about this man he was heading down through the subway. The policeman who had stopped raven in the past rang up the chief as soon as he heard and told them that
By now Raven was well through the subway. He heard the sirens above. Two policemen came running down the stairs leading into the subway. Raven ran on down through the subway hoping he would get out the other end. He heard footsteps coming in the opposite direction. They had trapped him. He started to panic. He made a swift decision and jumped on the tracks. He started sprinting through the dark tunnels of the track. He was making sure to stay in the middle of the track as he would be electrocuted if he touched the sides. He had made it to the next station across he quickly jumped off the tracks praying that the police hadn’t gotten there first. He was blessed the police were nowhere to be seen. He made a dash out on to the streets. His heart sunk to the bottom of his stomach. The police were outside patrolling the entrance of the subway. The only thing he could do was hiding.
He ran to the tracks but a train was blocking rails. Beads of sweat crawled down his face. He didn’t know what to do. For the first time in his career he didn’t have a plan. He made a dash out bumping into two policemen. He used his strength to bust through them and steal one of the officer’s guns. But what raven didn’t realize was that there were ten more policemen behind the two patrollers. He shot two police men and dashed into the subway knowing that he was not going to escape anymore. He was out numbered.
The policemen caught up with him and shouted FREEZE! Raven in the next few seconds had to make his decision whether to spend the rest of his life in prison or to end it - with that he jumped. The 10.40 express to Venice came hurtling in and took his body down the track. He had ended his murdering career and would finally be at peace with his tortured mind. Or would he? Some say they still see him dressed in his black overcoat wandering the subway his collar covering his disfigured face!!
