[
A voice was heard in the woods crying under the heavy rain the breeze was almost pulling down the trees with each wind making a dreadful sound fearful enough to scared away even the strongest animal yet the loud voice of a crying child was competing with the roaring thunder maybe out of fear , hunger or maybe because the baby was without a covering but who could have had such a wicked heart to leave a baby not upto a year old to die under such conditions if the mother wasn't ready to care for a child why go through the stress of 9 months and a painful delivery at the labour room just to dump a child in a wood to die horribly
The rain continued for a while until it almost pure down everything it has or maybe they actually heard the pleading tears of the baby and decided to save it's life for that day as the rain went down the thunders also obeyed the whispering of the wind and just gave it's lighting which eventually revealed a younger woman also crying faintly beside the baby ooh the baby wasn't alone after all but what could a living soul be doing in a wood at this hour of the day under the rain without shelter and yet with a baby too tender to be exposed to such weather? If she had wanted to cry together with the heavens why didn't she leave the baby in the room for safety than putting the little lad in such stress
All of a sudden she flew up carried her baby and began to run deeper into the woods as if been chased by a troop of army from the look of things she has already suffering a lot in the woods her dress was dripping with water there were lots of scratches and wounds on her body if she continues to run with this she might definitely faint or even die in the woods they speed at which she ran were ten times compared to a normal human being even with the weight of the child she was able to jump some little rocks, dodge a few branches while others that denials her passage ends up wounding her deeply yet she wasn't ready to stop anytime soon or even give up the race yet protecting her baby very well against their obstacles
From a distance voices of men and dogs were heard with some flash of eye blinding touch lamps running also towards the ladies direction the dogs were barking so loud even the rickets of the night were so quite to their noise they dogs were looking so terrifying, on a normal occasion their look can cause a child to convulse out of fear not to talk of now they're looking so eager to catch their prey. The men too were loaded with ruffles. Whoever these men were running after must have committed a crime worthy of death they were ready to clear off anything that could stand as an obstacle to fulfilling their mission.
Everyman was talking at the same time which made it difficult to understand or hear what they were saying but one could literally tell they were either after the lady or her baby, the men with the ruffles started releasing gunshots toward the direction of the lady since the couldn't met up with the distance of the lady
"Stop shooting!! don't shoot !!! The baby must live!! A man with a very ugly looking face commanded, they men stopped and continue with there hot chase
The lady was seen staggering with little or no strength remaining. She has exceeded her limit yet doesn't want to give up so easily she had prayed for more strength to continue running but where exactly is she running to? How possible is it to escape the swad almost getting to her but a mother have to do anything to save her baby even if it takes her own life yet she have to keep herself alive to save the little lad who has not seized to attract the attention of the ones after them with it's screaming cry if only the baby could stop crying maybe just maybe they can stop running and hide somewhere but that wasn't possible her legs couldn't carry her any longer she slubbed on the ground and clutch to her baby tightly close to her body she was already losing her breath
Within seconds the men had closed up on her and were able to rescue the baby from her. She had actually stolen the baby from a caring home in town this was not her first time but luck was against her today her movement have earlier been reported to the authorities and they were all positioned to capture her in the act but she was able to escape the men with her normal usual trick of pretending to be one of the workers on night shift she had stay up late at night waiting for the appropriate time to steal the baby when it started raining heavily and she thought it as the best opportunity to carry out her mission
She was handcuffed and taken to the station for proper investigation. They believe she wasn't working alone, someone somewhere must have Masterminds that operation and the officers were determined to find out who and why they choose to steal children below the age of one ... But how are they going to achieve that since the woman is her own boss????
