Chapter Seven
Into Town
Amari's Point of View:
Hm, a fresh morning into town to track down a jerk who's about to get their pants knocked off. It's going to be nice not to be held back by anybody.
Bark! Bark! Bark! In a short distance and speed, Lexis is seen running across the pathway that leads under the tall red, wooden Shinto leading into the village; kicking dust clouds along the way. "Hey buddy!" My hand runs through her thick fur while she swishes her tail across the dirt surface. "What're you doing here? Did you follow me?"
Lexis pants happily and sits on the ground, begging for more scratches and pets. "Say," I start. "You wanna help me with something?" She lets out a few more barks and excitedly jumps up and circles me. I can't help but laugh along, "Alright! Alright!"
Kneeling back towards the ground, I slip the rock out of my front pocket and draw it near her muzzle; letting her run her snout over every inch of it. "See if you can sniff this kid out."
She pulls away from the rock and sneezes once before she shook off the dirt that was covering her coat and started sniffing the ground for anything that might have matched the scent. In little to no time, she pointed her snout in the direction of the market that lead straight into the larger and more well-known area of the village. "Nice job! Let's go!"
About a half hour later
"Are you sure we're going the right way?" She lets out a grunt and continues sniffing the ground, leading me even deeper into the market place. I let out a long groan of boredom, "Why am I bothering?"
Lexis then stops dead in her tracks. She stares at the empty road ahead that leads to a bridge hovering over the raging rapid river; most likely the one that forms from Blaire's waterfall.
Lexis lets out an alerting grunt which grabs my attention. "What is it?" I ask as I get closer. Her snout is still pointed towards the bridge, and I can see someone standing at the outer edge of the wood planks that make up the base of the bridge. Lexis takes off.
Cole's Point of View:
"So how exactly are we going to find this guy?" I ask.
"The best way to find him…or her, is to find whomever matches the DNA analysis we took earlier. Do you think you can read that back again, Zane?" Rachel says.
A blue holographic screen rolls up from Zane's arm and multiple charts and picture graphs show up, "The only evidence I managed to pick up was a piece of green hair-like string. It's made of 100% nylon and only 80% saran. It doesn't seem like thread, but it doesn't seem like any type of human hair. My best guess would be that it is some type of doll hair."
"Doll hair?" I questioned.
"Okay, so all we need to do is find a giant possessed doll with green hair and a crazy obsession with rocks," Jay remarked. "Another day in paradise for us!"
So yeah, that's the end of this chapter! This was really all I could get so I'm sorry that it wasn't what you expected and yes, I am a HUGE promise breaker but remember, I am only human XD *see what I did there?* My computer is still acting up and I'm typing incredibly fast as I speak before it shuts down again. SOOO, yep! God have mercy on my crappy technology.
