Man Blocks Woman At ATM, Her Ex-Cop Dog Does This

A Bad Situation

A sick feeling exploded in her throat, and she felt a rush of adrenaline commanding her to run away.

It felt like she was living in one of her worst nightmares, and this strange, dark figure was the central antagonist. He was way too near, and his brisk pace and direction were similar to hers. This was not good. There was one was only one last thing to try.

Bad Area

Sandra hated her neighborhood, but it was the only place she could afford to live on her meager waitress salary.

There were two things that made her feel even remotely safe at home – the long line of sturdy locks down her reinforced steel door and her German Shepherd, Bear. He was her massive, fluffy savior.

Cop Dog

Bear was a retired cop canine she had managed to adopt through a friend’s connections. Sandra was happy to give the dog a nice and loving home to spend his golden years.

He might have been enjoying the restful years of his later life, but he was still sharp, loyal, and dangerous in the right situations. And tonight was going to be one of those unpleasant situations.

Night Errand

Sandra felt the familiar pangs of cold fear and paranoia as she walked to the only safe ATM in her area. The greasy landlord wasn’t going to let things slide another day.

She had no choice but to take Bear and try to avoid the darker spots that were notorious for crime. The first unsettling hurdle appeared around the corner.

Intimidating Gang

A group of guys perched on a doorstep, drinking and commenting loudly on the even louder music that kept the entire block awake.

They were big, marked, and unabashedly armed. Sandra felt the all too familiar pit of ice form in her stomach and a strong urge to flee. One of them saw her, and that’s when the problems began.
