Todd rolled over just in time to see the big guy jumping on him again, trying to pin him. Somehow, Todd managed to cut him again, this time on his arm. And the big guy jumped up again. At the same instant, Todd felt a kick to the side of his head. And then another one in the back. He swung a blind knife to his rear and hit pay dirt.
   "Aaah!" The tall one yelled and grabbed his leg. As he was reaching for him leg, Todd stabbed him again with all of his might and hit him in the right upper arm. The knife sank all the way in and he fell on the ground as Todd looked toward the big guy. He was running away!
    Todd kicked the tall guy in the face as he laid on the ground. He rolled over to his dead buddy and grabbed the knife, that was laying by his hand. He pointed it in Todds direction, but he didn't have the strength to get up.
   Todd stepped close to try to take a stab and the tall guy threw a kick. Todd pointed his knife at the incoming foot and stuck it. As the guy yanked his foot back, he tried to swing his knife at Todd. Todd leaned back and he missed. Finally, Todd stuck his knife into a chest, ending it. It went all the way in and blood squirted all over Todd.
   Todd relaxed and let out a huge sigh of relief. Then he heard the footsteps coming fast. It was the big guy again and he had a baseball bat! Two more guys followed him. Todd scrambled to his feet and took off running. Every muscle and joint on his body hurt. Somehow, he found the strength to run. His adrenaline was pumping and he kept running as fast as he could. He glanced back to see two of them following him, the big guy with the bat and one other guy.
   Todd turned to cut through somebodies yard and glanced back again. They were still coming, but he was putting some real estate between them and him. He made a right tun out of the front gate and never looked back. He didn't run straight to his car, he took the long way around. When he turned the last corner, near his car, he looked back again and they were gone. He casually walked toward his car and got in.
   He left some evidence behind and had to go back and get it. He drove straight back to the scene, hoping to beat the big guy and his friend back. When he turned the corner, he saw one guy standing next to the two bodies. He parked around the corner and ran back. The guy was just standing there looking down at the bodies and never even saw Todd. Todd ran right up to the guy and hit him in the temple, with the butt of his knife as hard as he could. He passed out and Todd grabbed his cane, helmet, wig and beard. He ran back to his car and took off as quick as he could, without spinning the tires.
   He trembled all the way home. He didn't go to a public rest room to change clothes this time, because he was covered with blood. He drove the Buick home and ran in.
