Chapter 13:

Unexpected


"The hell I am!" The toddler spat, cradling the empty bowl to his chest as his honeyed eyes tracked the four men in the firelight.

Oromori expected this.

What he did not expect was for the child to hurl the cookware with enough force to connect against Yojimbo's forehead, toppling the man like a felled tree. Ikkitou gave a shout, lurching forward to tackle the boy to the ground, but the little hellion was nimble, skittering around his man's grasping arms and stomping on the back of his hand when he over reached issuing a crack into the air.

Fascinating.
