Another unfinished story

Rain puddles were everywhere and, of course, I had to jump in every single one of them. My mom hates it when I do that but i just can't help myself.
I'm about to jump into the biggest puddle I've ever seen when I notice some-
"Mike! Don't you dare jump in that puddle", my mother yells for tehe third time.
"I'm not. I see something shiny" By the look on her face, I know she doesn't believe me. I don't mind though, she hardly ever believes me unless there's proof. I go back to looking at the puddle; there is definitely something shiny, it's something big.
My mom starts to look the other way and I take the opportunity to reach in and grab whatever the item is. Suddenly, I'm sucked into the water. I'm falling towards the shiny object but it's getting bigger and bigger until I realize that I'm falling towards a city. Excitement rushes through me at the chance for an adventure until I notice that I'm about to hit the sidewalk extremely hard. I brace myself and...
Nothing, there's no pain. I open my eyes and realize that I've landed on a mattress which starts to move! Finally I notice that the mattress is in the back of a flat-bed truck. I decided to just take a ride on the truck until I saw more of this new city I had landed in. Four stoplights later, I heard someone yelling at turned to see a couple of officers running towards the very truck I was on. Now seemed about the right time to get off and run.
I ran two blocks before the officers caught up with me. I heard a gunshot and ducked without even thinking. As soon as I hit the ground another shot went off and a huge pain spread through my entire leg and I blacked out.
