Hello new reader and perhaps some readers from No More Tears
This new story features Caria Wolf from my other story, but in a more modern time period. Many elements of SNK are included so take a look!
Prologue
"Hey! Watch it little girl!" a voice growled as I stumbled back onto my feet.
"Excuse me sir, but you bumped into me," I retorted to the unbelievably short man in front of me. Sure I wasn't that tall myself, slightly shorter than him in fact, but boy did this guy need a growth spurt.
"Damn brat, pay more attention," the man scoffed.
"Geez what a terrible attitude!" I commented inwardly. I didn't want to cause a scene, so I took a deep breath and decided to be more polite. Maybe he was just having a bad day judging by the impressive creases in his forehead.
"Look. It's the end of the day. People are eager to get home. I understand. I'm sorry," I apologized.
"Hmph. Just because you're in a hurry doesn't mean you have to act like a stumbling buffoon," he said with sharp grey eyes piercing me. I saw a hint of smirk on his face. H-he was... goading me? Me, a complete stranger, yet he's instigating an argument? I smiled at the sheer ridiculousness of the situation.
"Whatever. Have a nice day sir. Oh and by the way. I'm not a brat, as you put it, I'm a grown woman. Thought that'd be easy to see for someone of your height level," I shrugged, turning to walk away.
"Of course you're no child what with those melons being the size of your head and perhaps just as hollow..." I just barely heard him mutter.
"How dare you-ahh!" I spun around, but stumbled forward as metro came to a sudden stop, and the power went out. I collided once more with the asshole wearing some out of fashion undercut hairstyle. We fell over onto the ground. Questions voices rang out in the darkness. I felt myself squashed up against the warm chest of the short man. I could feel he was relatively muscular through his pressed white shirt, and my face flushed in embarrassment upon noticing. My body bolted up, and I looked down in alarm. Somehow, I had ended up straddling him.
