Snippet #1889419

Mao can feel as there is a sudden grasp of force around her waist. She lets out a scream of surprise, struggling with whatever had hold of her as it sprinted across the road. It was then that she had suddenly been snapped out of her thoughts. When the boy finally set her down on the other side, Mao let out an angry huff. "What's your-" but she quickly cuts her sentence off. Staring up at the bright green light and watching as the cars easily drive through the intersection made her realize what had just occurred.

Suddenly, Mao becomes very shy. She stumbles over her words, smoothing out her hair. "S-sorry...I didn't realize...I was just thinking..." She had felt bad for suddenly snapping at the boy when he had just rescued her...Damn, that was sure to have hurt if Mao had actually been hit..."Thank you for that..." She mumbles, giving an appalogetic smile as her eyes gaze at the cement below. The bell on her collar gives off a sweet melodic chime once again as she shifts weight from one foot to the other.

However, Mao becomes eerily silent. There was something strange about this boy; something about him which didn't smell like an average human. What was it?...After a few moments of thinking, Mao quickly brushes it aside. Surely it was just her imagination.
