“Mazu..” The larger, human boy's voice quivered, echoing with the
dripping water in the pipes. “Let's go back!”
“No way!”
The asura child retorted, leading on with her loaded slingshot
prepared to shoot. She turned the corner, to the section where the
strange, clicking, rustling sound was coming from. Something moved in
the shadows and Mazu took her shot.
A metallic ping. A squeak.
The splashing, scampering of little feet running away in the
sewers.
“Aww man. Just a rat in a can! Bor-ing!”
“Can
we go back now?” David asked his friend.
Mazu rolled her
eyes. “Fi—ne!”
