New Stories! What About This One?

Here is the future mystery one. Oh, you're a girl in the story. Sorry guys. Don't worry. You don't really play a major part. You're just someone the main character, Cosmos, talks to. Whenever he says something without the quotation marks, it means he's talking to you. When he does something to you it'll have the word you in the sentence. Got it? Sorry it's kinda confusing. Do you like this one or the other one?

I sprint down the hall panting like a fluffy, black, dog in 100 degree weather. Who am I? Cosmos. Cosmos Strate. Why am I running? Well, don't ask so many questions! I'm being hunted if you must know. I don't have the energy to spare to explain why!
"There he is! Get him!" shouts Mr. Wilfred. I keep running. A laser whizzes passed my head. Well, I guess i won't be needing that haircut. I round the corner and jump out the wide window. Pressing the start button with foot, I fly off on my hoverboard. The tall skyscrapers loom over me.
"Cosmos Strate, get off the hoverboard with you hands up, or we will blast you out of the sky. Place the innocent girl down too." a police officers yells into his throat mic. I'll explain that later. My goodness, I don't even know why you're following me. Now, you're wanted too. I'll tell you why later!
"No thanks!" I yell back and kick my hoverboard to the fastest setting which is 100 mph. I dodge an old man in his hoverchair watering his flowers.
"Be careful you rascal!" he yells angrily. I groan. Oh, quit giggling. I spy my friend, Arch. He waves me to do escape plan Alpha. Oh, this is going to be fun. Hold on tight whoever you are.
I turn abruptly at the Feed's Mart and fly parallel to its wall. The police with hovercars are forced to stop. They shout something, but the roaring wind drows them out. I spin quickly around the water tower, nose dive towards the park, and quickly land in a secluded part of Manhatten Central Park. What? You're sick? Ha! You'd better get used to it if you're going to follow me around.
"Cosmos!" Arch lands next to me. "What were you thinking? The rescue was risky enough! Why did you pick up some random person on the way back?"
I shrug. "I don't even know you this girl."
"WHAT!" he yells. I wince. What? Oh, yes, we probably should keep our voices down. I suggest that to Arch, and he clamps his mouth shut. He grunts and leads the way the the hideout. So, who are you? Stella Maroles huh. Well, I guess you're part of the team now. What! You haven't heard of us? Where have you been the past three months, under a rock? Oh, you've lost your memory? I'm sorry I didn't realize...
"Hurry up, Cosmos!" Arch says very annoyed. I roll my eyes. He's the supposed "leader" of our group. I walk into the invisible walkway that leads to the HQ.
"Cosmos, I want you to go the make sure no one can tract us back here." I nod and we quickly leave.
As I carefully check to make sure everything is covered, a blast rings through the forest connecting to the park. "Finally found you." says Wilfred from the Global Equality Movment, GEM. I grab your arm and drag you towards base. The base actually is a giant hovership. Yes, oh. Wow, you're slow.
"Arg!" I wince as a laser finds its target, my shoulder. I continue to run as the base begins to liftoff. I blast a cable tied to a torpedo head at the base. Oh, quit screaming! We're hanging in the air while Wilfred is down on the ground yelling his head off. Arch'll slow down the ship in a few mintues so we can get in.
Then, I hear a boom. I turn to look just as a long distance laser cuts the cable half way. The cable shudders, and I begin to panic. It won't be long till the cable snaps. Don't move! What? Wait why are you letting go? Don't be ridiculous! You can't just fall to your death. Well, yes, the cable will hold if there's one person. So what if you don't have your memory? Well, that's true that you won't tell GEM much. Them might not catch you. If they don't... I couldn't finish my sentence before you let go. I watch in horror as your body cartwheels down to earth.
