Scarlet
I continue waiting on the ground for several more seconds as the kid just continues sitting on her heels while hugging her legs and staring at . And right when Im about to finally get up, she reaches down out of nowhere and pokes in the forehead, giving pause.
Youre the Scarlet Wolf, right? she finally speaks, asking a question. And when I hesitantly nod my head, she nods back and says, Thought so.
Then she pokes my ear, making imdiately jump to my feet, barely avoiding hitting her with my head in the process.
Please dont do that, I warn her with a scowl, sohow feeling that I dont have to treat this kid like a kid despite her being one.
She just shrugs and stands up straight, brushing off her dress, Im sorry, but Liz dared to touch the tail or ears of a Guardian if I ever t one that had them. The devil of a girl then raises her head to look at , still without an ounce of fear in her eyes from the fact that were stranded outside in the middle of a Class II Fracture. I wont be doing it again.
What the hell is up with this kid?
She reminds of a mini you, Tar says, making my right eye twitch in irritation. She has that neutral face and occasional scowl down to a T.
Damnit, is she a human or a changeling? Because Im pretty sure most kids would be crying right now. Or at least, thats been my experience so far..
You know I cant answer that, Tar says, only to add, but you can figure it out for yourself. Just sniff her.
I blink in surprise at that.
Sniff her? Like a dog?
Yes. Like a dog. He answers in a very serious tone of voice. But you dont have to get any closer. You wouldve noticed an odd sll already if she were a changeling. One that they cant possibly cover up from a half blood lycan even if they tried and slls a little leathery.
Which is basically his way of saying she isnt. Okay.
Wait a second.
Odd sll? Leathery?
My thoughts go back to every single ti I see that councilwoman and sll that odd leathery sll coming from her.
Is that what you ant by an odd sll?
You know I cant answer that, Tar repeats the phrase every single fae uses when asked if soone else is a human or a demon.
My eyes narrow as I straighten up and pat my back, cleaning off any dust that may have gotten on my jacket from the ground.
Well, putting the possibility that Councilwoman Rose is a changeling aside for the mont, that ans this girl is clean at least. Shes human.
Just a little odd. Thats all.
Youre one to talk, Tar says, but I proceed to ignore him as I ask the kid, So would you mind waiting back there, I pause to point back where I ca at the room down the hall, for to deal with the last demon on this floor?
The kid stares at for several seconds before nodding and proceeding to walk down the hall without a word.
Huh. That turned out to be much easier than I thought.
She probably saw you as a fellow- Tar begins another attack against my pride, but I mutter rather quietly, Shut it, before he can, stopping him cold without the girl being able to hear .
Now then. On to the next fomorian!
It doesnt take long to find the thing thanks to my hearing, and what I find certainly isnt what I was expecting. Because the demon is just standing outside of a bunker door without doing anything besides staring at the door, leaving its back wide open.
Huh. I wonder
With a ntal shrug, I raise my hand and create a massive hamr from the other end of the room, making sure to stay far enough away that the thing doesnt hear . Then I move the hamr slowly over to the demon before spinning it a few tis until it picks up speed, seemingly catching the demons attention in the process as it starts to turn around. But before it can fully turn to face and the hamr, I let the hamr fly, smacking the demon in the back, and sending it straight into the barrier that proceeds to fry the thing alive.
At this point I sprint forwards while raising my hand and creating a few swords that I then throw straight at the thing before slamming the hamr into it again when it tries and fails miserably to get its back off of the barrier shield. And after several loud seconds of the sounds of electricity running through it, the thing finally gives the stack of bloodthirst I was waiting for.
So I let my blood manifestation dissipate before nodding my head in satisfaction.
That worked wonderfully.
I turn around and begin walking back again while letting my System ssages flow through.

Im starting to think this Class II Fracture isnt all that bad after all.
Dont let your pride and ego cloud your thoughts, Tar warns . Rember that youre only dealing with the weakest possible demons in the Fracture one at a ti right now.
I know, I know. I wont leave this floor.
Dont worry so much, my little furry tailed friend.
Tar doesnt respond to that, but I swear I feel a wave of actual fear coming from him at that latest nickna. And that has grinning.
Gotta love getting so new ammunition to use against him!
