Hilary Had A Gun... #amwriting


The Task:
Take the original text and edit it to 2-3 lines.


Original Text Supplied:
'The heavy black and blue winter sky groaned awfully with rain clouds that at any moment were really about to fall crashing heavily down upon the street where, because it was rush hour, so many people, wearing all manner of different clothes, hats, shoes, boots, some of them carrying bags, suitcases, briefcases, scampered and strolled about the place as though oblivious to what was just about to happen over their very heads. One of these people was called Hilary and concealed inside her voluminous coat she carried the loaded, snub-nosed gun, and she also seemed to be the only one looking upwards into the tempestuous thundery heavens.'

Edited To:

Hilary turned her face to the sky, waiting for the heavy black clouds to burst and unleash their load on the busy street below. She gripped the snub-nosed gun concealed inside her billowing coat, as the crowds bustled about their business around her, oblivious of the storm about to explode around them.
