Unwind
Unwind is a book by Neal Shusterman. The Heartland War…..the war between pro-active and pro-life because of abortion. The war was ended with the Bill of Life. The Bill of Life basically stated that you were to keep your child and raise your child at least to teenage years. If the child is not wanted between the teenage years, parents could legally “abort” them also known as unwinding.
Unwinding is basically, well imagine if your body parts were separated from you, piece by piece, not a single one left out. Imagine a time where this could actually happen to you and all your parents have to do is sign a form and people come to take you off to be unwound. This was legal because technically the child isn’t dead, just in a divided state. Now imagine if you were a runaway unwind, escaping from your unwinding.
All you had to do was survive until age eighteen and they couldn’t unwind you anymore. Sounds simple right……wrong. There are chasers, basically sort of bounty hunters that try to capture you and trade you in to the harvest camp for money. Now meet the runaways…they each have a story….a reason they were to be unwound. Can you stay alive or will you be unwound?

(I was going to wait for other people since I put it up at a time where people might not be on, but sure we can start. It's still open to other people as well.)
My lungs were pounding in pain because I was in pain from using so much air to run. I hadn't taken a break yet and I wasn't planning to until I knew I was safe. I was being chased by a chaser and I was narrowly avoiding tranquilizer shots. I turned into an alleyway and backed myself against the wall.

I continued backing up, then I hit someone. I had to cover my mouth to not scream. "Yuri..." I wispered, relieved.

I accidently screeched because of who I ran into. "Oh Samantha, it's you. Are you being chased as well?" I asked a little worried. I silently hit myself in the forehead because I screeched.

I didn't take crap from anyone. "Your welcome and what the heck is your problem? You never asked my name which is Yuri either."

"My names Sam." I said, chipper. "Now, I think we have more important things to do than argue about this crap. Like the fact that we are most likely surrounded."
