"Shit shit shit shit!"
Jacob ran up the stairs and through the following corridor, his tongue spouting curses the entire time. He failed to slow down and ran into a wall, quickly pushed himself off it, and continued to run. Bursting out of the Red Fist bar, he whipped his head left and right, then went running.
A man opening his car caught his sight. Jacob ran up to him and, without hesitation, planted a punch into his guts. As the man fell to the ground, Jacob picked up the keys that had been dropped and then climbed into the rusty vehicle, cursing as the engine refused to ignite.
Hearing the rough hum of an engine nearing its final days, Jacob slammed the gas pedal and took off. As he sped through Hollowgrid's empty roads, he gritted his teeth so hard it felt like they were going to crack. His eyes were on the road, but his mind kept playing the same scenes again and again.
