"Come on Jan! Just a little faster!" Galloping, the horse increased her speed until it was above the legal limit. We dashed past a few Military Police Officers, but thankfully they were too occupied with their diluted alcoholic beverages.

The entrance to the Underground City had just appeared up ahead, though it was fully blocked by a wagon that was lodged inside of it.

"Slow, slow" The speed immediately fell and turned into a controllable trot, I manoeuvred Jan around a few stalls and stopped a few metres away from the blocked up entrance, though the street was too narrow to stop the horse any further away.

"YOU OLD CANKERBLOSSOM! MOVE IT BEFORE I CALL THE MILITARY POLICE!" A old merchant roared, violently kicking the wagon cart.

Stupid merchants, she's only a old woman, for god sakes.

"Um hello?" I lightly waved at the frustrated woman, her hands were shaking as she tried to make the wagon cart budge.

She looked up before smiling feebly at me, though it turned into a frown as I stood in front of the wagon cart, pushing the obese merchant out of the way.

"HEY GET LOST! IM TRYING TO WORK HERE!" He boomed, smacking his own cart to get my attention.

"Same here, I need to get down there" I said, gesturing the blocked entrance with my normal calm tone.

"YOU'RE A GIRL! YOU CANT PULL THAT ENORMOUS-" 

"Look, if you remove the wheel here, you have enough space to pull it out" kneeling down next to one of the cart wheels, carefully pulling the wheel hinge out, resulting in the wheel to immediately fall off.

I looked up and saw the woman timidly standing there and smiling down warmly at me.

I turned back to the cart and roughly yanked the wheel out by grooving it against the wall.

I threw the wheel behind me and whistled for Jan, the horse neighed in response and came to me without delay, I took the wagon straps and tied only half of them to the horse's body.

I skipped back to where the missing wheel was and pulled the cart up, supporting the area where the wheel would be.

"Go" I yapped, my back already hurting from how heavy the cart was...

How is she even able drag the cart without a horse?... 

As Jan moved slowly, I did too. Eventually the cart pulled out of the entrance and the Merchant stood there with his jaw dropped.

"JAN STOP, I NEED THE W-W-WHEEL" I exclaimed, my spine feeling like it was about to snap. 

Jan stopped pulling and just waited there while the old woman trailed the cart wheel to me, I quickly grabbed it and placed it a few centimetres away from where the wheel was supposed to slip onto.
