The Open Door

My footsteps echoed through the halls as I ran in a full sprint. An alarm rang. The Enforcers barked orders at each other and small groups began to search, most marching towards the origin of the wailing siren. I heard a squad of Enforcers coming and ran to the nearest door. I dove through it as soon as it opened. I held my breath until they passed. The clamor of Enforcers waned, the pounding of my heart slowed, but still, I waited.
