The Great Wall of China

A 55 fiction... a short story challenge my teacher gave me to create a story with a beginning middle and end in 55 words.

The Sun rising on the horizon, my heart pounding, praying a new shift of guards was not yet

patrolling. Scurrying across the crumbling stones I heard the sound of metal scraping metal too late. I turned my head exposing the vulnerable flesh as the blade slashed my throat. By dying, I escape my peasant life.
