Spring 20th, 512AV “Fool.” It was muttered for the seventh time in the last ten seconds. The city was large and strangely empty in this area. Or perhaps people were simply so absorbed in making sure the city was beginning to run smoothly again that they did not have to time to wander as she did. So not only was she lost but Apple couldn’t seem to find anyone to ask where precisely she was or how she was going to get back. It was beginning to grate on her last bit of none existent patience and she was close to screaming, her teeth digging into her lip painfully and she sorely wished she had brought more than a crudely drawn map. Actually it was the maps fault anyhow. It was completely wrong! Nothing looked familiar either not that she focused on much save for her feet. Constantly only watching her steps in almost a form of resignation, tired from walking and getting tired of being angry. Letting out a cry of frustration finally she ran a hand over her face tiredly. It was warmer than what she was used too and her pants clung uncomfortably with a dampness she would rather not name. Of course none of this matter when she opened her eyes again for in front of her was a very angry animal. She forgot how to breathe for a moment; the dog seemed to be nearly as big as she was! Her legs felt strangely like a jelly dessert and her brain could not seem to make heads or tails of how to react. Her movement only seemed to come back as she heard the beast growl. Turning without so much as a sound she made to flee but it jumped on her back. Unsure of what else to do she finally released her scream. Her etiquette flying out the windows a stream of words spewed from her lips that would make anyone cringe. |
