𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 ✦: This chapter has been rewritten, it has changed a lot. The mention of blood will be slightly called out.
𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐑𝐃 𝐏𝐎𝐕:
To fulfil his job, a petite male sprang across each building, studying everything that could put others in danger. He would land immaculately after each jump. In his hand, he wielded his chosen weapon, a spear in this case. Its full name is the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear if you want to get technical. The material was a chartreuse green colour, and it was supposed to be the link between the gold bars that kept the spear together.
Xiao was never easily distracted, but there were occasions when he was. Multiple colours were painted on the shimmering waves by the blazing lights above. Tyrian purple clouds and flecks of stars that could easily be mistaken for dots adorned the night sky perfectly. The adeptus was awestruck by the sight; it was quite mesmerising, and it definitely calmed him down. He was on the roofs of abandoned warehouses, that's where he was. The male had heard many rumours about a terrible man-eating tiger that had recently appeared in this city. No one knows if it ate anyone, but he heard it looted stores, ate farm animals, and generally caused havoc. Tsurmi, where the tiger was last spotted, is roughly four days old. He himself describes the occurrence as odd, particularly in terms of how sudden it occurred. However, it is ultimately his responsibility to recast and terminate it.
"Dazai-San, sorry to interrupt but what are you reading?"
The first individual to speak was a male-sounding voice. He spoke in a calm warm hearted tone, but Xiao knew he couldn't trust him. He also knew that one of those persons was named Dazai, or that it was a nickname for him. He patiently listened.
"A good book."
When the second individual responded, the voice claimed to be that of another male. Because Xiao didn't recognise any of these voices, he couldn't have passed them by. He listened intently once again.
"Ah-I'm surprise you can read when it's this dark."
"I have excellent night time vision. Besides, I read it before. I know everything that happens in this book"
"That's funny, then why are you reading it again."
"A good book is always a good book."
Soon the atmosphere was silent.
"E-eh..ehm...do you think the tiger will track me down and come here?"
