         Richard did not take her hand but followed Rosette and listened to her words intently. When she stopped, turned towards him, looked at the brick walls beside them and then looked at him he answered her.

"First off, yes, I live nearby. Secondly, I have powers, but I've not done much with them to anyone nor have I been able to do anything with my powers, except shoot fire out of my hands. Thirdly, I have no idea what we just destroyed. You blasted it with ice so quickly and then I incinerated it so fast that I could not get a good look at what we destroyed really. I did see the paper stuck on its head, so maybe its some kind of zombie or magically summoned creature." Richard rolled his eyes at that thought and felt it was ridiculous before he put his hand to his chin and though more on the issue, "Maybe we were just imagining that thing and it's more logically based than I've just presumed. What do you think Rosette?"

He gazed at her and thought about one of her other comments, "What coincidence for us to meet like this. Maybe we're supposed to meet, you never know." This thought made him blush but he quickly went about trying to hide this by looking down at the muddy concrete at his feet. For a back alley it certainly was not clean. He lifted u his shoe and found he had definitely stepped in the mud below him somehow while they were walking.
