Chapter 38 – More Flashback


Ginta and Hakkaku saw a figure approach on a strange, two-wheeled contraption. With heightened sight, they caught flying black hair and furious features. Sister. They jumped from their disinterested leans against a set of boulders. Guard duty had suddenly grown lively.

"You think she's found out?" Hakkaku ran a hand through his mohawk, sending the shock of hair whipping. "Lord Kouga's been expecting this day a long time."

"Quiet!" Ginta elbowed him, jostling the chain across Hakkaku's chest. "We say nothing!"

They pulled on smiles as the girl neared, peddling furiously. A cloud of dust followed like a coming storm.
