The Life Of 2 Kids (A Short Story That Went Wrong)



As they both woke up is some cheap hotel in Brooklyn Heights
they both knew they were in for a crazy night
they had to move fast cause they knew the FEDS were listen'n
something about a homicide they were wanted for in Detroit Michigan
Thier first move was to meet up with Gloria
who in which they sold drugs for and lived in Astoria
they got thier loot and took her caravan
now its I-95 south down towards Maryland
to meet up with Samantha
who is from Atlanta
she ripped them off back in like '91
in a transaction for some guns
but couldnt find her so they went for her next of kin
who was some crazy shot out Mexican
who told them about some major drugs they were boost'n
out of some redneck town in Houston
so they went but they knew this would cost'm
they stopped off in Austin
made a couple of calls and their peeps said ' the feds are watchin ya'll'
with no hesitation they shot up north to Wichita
so with all the drugs that they had boosted they found out it was mostly cut with asprin
they did what they had to do and pawned it off to some rich prick from Aspen
but they were still short on money
so they stole a few cars
and robbed a few bars
the one saw a flyer that his favorite band Green Day
was playin up in Green Bay
this was a risk cause the last time they saw them they got involved in this stupid punk battle
with these losers from Seattle
now there is mass confusion
they did the right thing (so they thought)
and headed west to Tuscon
they were so paranoid and the one kept sayin ' the feds are gonna get us'
so where else is better to hide out in the west... good old Las Vegas
but that didnt last long before the one got into a big mess
he tried to rob this guy from Texas
got arrested and narced his boy out
but the other found some promise
if he could only make it to St. Thomas
but in a shoot out with the FEDS he was killed
outside an airport in Brownsville
now one is in jail and one is dead...
what a crazy time in the day in the life of 2 kids
