Thursday, June 14 – The Square 1:45 pm
The white haired hedgehog kicked a rock from in front of her feet. "Note: Never ask Arella to be on time…" She trailed off, plopping back down on the bench and crossing her legs.
It wasn't very long before another hedgehog came dashing around the corner, she was almost a blur. "XADX! Sorry I'm late!" She had a bright smile, but her azure blue eyes had a blank stare.
XADX turned to the gray hedgehog, "What in the hell took you THAT long?"
Arella waved a hand, mocking her question, "Bish please. You don't expect me to be on time when I am what I am right?"
XADX sighed, "Alright. Now let's go. I'm not missing an amusement park for anything." She started to walk on, staring straight ahead at the coaster that was just able to be seen from behind the skyscraper. Arella hummed a certain song to herself, skipping to the beat.
What they didn't realize was a certain black and red hedgehog was watching Arella. He had never seen such a strange girl before. Long, beautiful brown hair, but gray fur and rainbow stripes all on her arms. Of course the one next to her was also strange. But he focused more on the one skipping along, like she was in her own little world. He noticed she stopped, her ears twitched a little and she turned in his exact direction. He hid behind the tree, and she turned back, skipping again. He looked towards them once again, trying to advert his gaze as much as possible so as to not to provoke her.
But, she whirred around, a sudden death glare right at the tree. Her ears twitched again and she pulled out a small zebra-striped gun with a blue spiral charm on its handle. A robot flew down right behind the red and black hedgehog, he barely had enough time to think before two shots were fired, the robot's knees buckled. Then another last shot, which rang through the silence and decimated the robot's head, turning it into a pile of shrapnel.
*Target neutralized. No further hostiles in area, you may proceed as normal to destination.* The small ring piercing in her ear said in her mind. She lowered her gun, turning to XADX who wasn't shocked or frightened by the sudden outburst.
"More of those blasted robots?" XADX checked her watch.
"They just don't give up…I've killed more than I'd bother to this past hour." Arella put the gun back in its imaginary holster, and it disappeared behind her trench coat's flap.
"We've only been here for an hour…"
"My point exactly."
XADX face palmed. "Let's…just….Just move your ass."
"Ma'am yes ma'am." Arella saluted, continuing to skip onwards.
"Why oh WHY did I get involved?" She walked next to Arella, checking her phone.
The red and black hedgehog was heavily breathing; he muttered something under his breath, holding a green emerald, and disappeared.
