Snippet #2456418

Shina just stared in shock as the hunter pretended to shoot the blue haired boy. At first she was mad he'd scare the boy like that, but then decided it was better than actually shooting. The hunter exited the area, and she was going to check on the blue haired one but he also ran off before she could utter a word. What was with people? Rushing about so fast.

Shrugging it off, she decided to close shop after storing and locking up all the goods they had. She had forgotten the lock part once and they'd nearly starved after being robbed. Her mom wasn't really angry, Shina thought she was too hungry to be angry. Before leaving the shop however, she took the small dagger like knife she'd had with her basically since moving to this town. She kept it on her always, and no one could really blame her. It was dangerous. Not just from animals either.

Instead of going home like a smart girl, she decided to go on a walk around town before the sun was completely gone. She wandered around a bit, no longer bothered by the harsh cold air or slippery ice that would trip her up as a child. Shina wished she could go somewhere warmer one day, like places she'd heard about only from whispered gossip. Not the extremely hot place either, just warm. But she knew it wasn't going to happen. So she stuck to her first dream. Being a hunter.

Her inner thoughts of dreams was cut off suddenly by what sounded like a struggle near by, but she didn't really see anyone. Since she didn't see anyone, she decided to carry on as if nothing happened. Better to not stick her nose where it didn't belong, or she'd be the one getting really shot. When she saw blood though, she slightly changed her mind. It seemed like it was recent, so she couldn't help but call out.

"Hello? Is anyone around here?"
