Mr. mannequin POV
-~-
I finally cleaned up. My "beard" was shaved off and I was in a suit again. It felt good to not pretend to be homeless.
I have been following Dom and his friends for far too long. I have no idea as to why the lady wanted me to follow and fight him, but I was getting paid so it didn't matter. Today was the day. It was time to make myself known as a spy. I was going to fight them today.
I still have the crystal around my neck now encased in platinum and attached to a chain. It was very hard to ever see myself fighting such a generous man. He had given me a rock worth more than my monthly salary. I was planning on making a new charm out of it, but those take time. I guess after today I will be out of work for quite a while.
After getting all of the charms in their human forms I felt quite exhausted, so I decided to take a nap. It was still very early in the day. The sun wasn't even peaking over the horizon. I laid down on a mat and closed my eyes with no struggle of drifting off.
I was jolted awake by the sound of thunder. I couldn't tell where the sun was, but by the looks of it, the light was coming from the east. Still early morning. I only had enough charms for 30 people, so I decided to go into town and get some help from the normals. I hired 9 men, some bigger than me, some smaller. It was the start of a small army.
The 40 of us gathered our things (those who had things to gather) and we set pace toward the camp Dom and his gang set up. Hopefully, we can be there by nightfall.

Sorry for the late update!!! Also sorry this chapter is so short. I just wanted to give you a little look into Mr. Maniquin's mind. Hopefully, I can have the next chapter out soon.
