On the other side of the dark woods, anxious police officers moved swiftly through the shrubs and thorns hiding in the darkness.
Officer Curry was in the lead with the pink iPhone raised high above his head followed by Officer Nelson who kept his bloodshot eyes trained on the ever-disappearing light.
No one dared to look away; they were even too afraid to blink out of fear of it suddenly disappearing.
There were some who feared they were only hallucinating and as a result running towards nothing at all, but kept moving forward, using the last bit of energy they had left in the tank.
"The signals getting stronger!" they heard Officer Curry yell and the feet stomped harder against the ground.
As the light touched their faces the men found themselves smiling, it was still some distance away but it was there...their freedom was right there.
