Another attempt

The scream made from the being trying to kill me sounded like a child. I pause. Once the fog clears up I see... Wait... "You're!" The kid laying on the ground was my experiment. He was bleeding out of the gut. "What are you doing here!?" He looks at me. " I was looking for you. I was sent by the twins." He gets up and brushes himself off, ignoring the fact that he was bleeding. I fold my arms. He looks down at my waist. He reached for the rope. I smack his hand. "What are you doing!?" He pulls his hand back. "You look like you're in quite the predicament."

" I did this on purpose. I thought you were a vicious monster, but your just a boy. My boy." He grabbed my arm. "Well, you need to wake up." I knew I was sleeping. "How are you in my dream? Nightmare... What ever this is?" He shakes his head. " No time to tell a tale. We gotta get outta here. Mr. P is after you, and most likely me as well." Before I could open my mouth, he pulls me along. "It's a good thing you've got that thing attached to ya. We can use it to escape through there." He points to the drain plate in the ground. We're running. Why are we running. " just don't look back."

"Why?"

" Because somethings will be revealed to you if you do. As in the answer to why were running. The guy you thought to kill is a tough one. " So he is alive. I wonder if he's in my dream or if he's just an allusion. If he isn't one, if I kill him, he'll die in real life. I keep my eyes on my boy. We pause at the drain plate. He removed the plate to reveal the sewers underneath. "We have no time to unite it from your waist so I'll climb down and catch you."

" wait what?" He pulls me forward and tugs on the rope around my waist. "Remember . Don't look back."

" Wait! I'm to- I'm not strong enough for this. I'll fall down!" He points to a pole attached to the wall. "Then brace yourself. Hold something." He didn't even give me time to talk when he jumps down. My body jerks forward. Forcing me on the ground. My body was still in some form of pain. I knew it would all hit me like a truck driving over the speed limit when I'm not running for my life. I hear a sound at the bottom of the drain. I assume he made it down. I feel something touch my neck, but when I look back, nothing was there. "Hey! Jump down!"

"If you drop me, I'll murder you!" I yell as I look down the drain. I jump down, but when I do...
