Creative Writing: Lulissa's Journey

Lulissa had been running all day, sweat was dripping downwards from her normally clean and dry face. She had hid in a dank and dark alleyway for at least ten minutes now. She crouched low behind a nearby dumpster while holding her nose as she saw beams of light beaming out from the entrance to the alleyway.
