Authors:
Genres: Fiction
I was out in the middle of a desert. I checked the rearview every once in a while but there were never any police cars or headlights behind me. Then the road began to incline and the engine lugged. I tried to shift down but it wouldn’t. It was stuck in third gear. I pushed the clutch in over and over and used all the strength I had to try and get the gear shift out of third but it wouldn’t go. The hill kept getting steeper. The engine lugged more and the truck slowed until the engine finally quit.I made it to the side of the road and stopped. I tried again and again to take the truck out of third but it wouldn’t go. I sat there for nearly a half-hour trying. I found a flashlight in the glove box and opened the hood but I didn’t know what to look for. I waited until the truck cooled down and I then tried again but it still wouldn’t leave third. I started the engine and revved it and tried to go forward but it just lugged and stalled. I looked around but there was nothing but darkness.
