I didn’t see it coming. He snuck up behind me, slowly, silently, with deadly intent. When he was within reach he lifted the lead pipe over his shoulders, and after hesitating for just a moment, he swung the rusty pipe full speed through the air directly at my head. CRACK! My skull split open as my body whent tumbling face first to the floor. I felt the blood gushing down my hair as he continued his assault down my spine, legs, ams and feet. When he was done he threw the pipe behind me and turned to walk away. I struggeled to turn my head to catch a glipse of my attacker. I peeled my eyelids apart just enough to recognize him. “Hello Morning,” I said, “I wasn’t expecting you so early.”
