Kleo heard the girl's words. Perhaps being short wasn't so bad. Kleo wished she was swifter, lighter, she wished she could tread quietly.
She was never good at hide and seek either. Well...the seeking she was good at. It was the hiding which Kleo struggled with, this was partly due to the fact that Kleo was loud, clumsy even. Like a lumbering beast. She wasn't agile, and she wasn't very fit, Kleo was always the first to be found. However, she was a fast learner, she loved to observe.

"I've been living fine on my own, I've lived here for 4 years and I've managed to survive." she replied briskly.
Kleo drew back hesitantly. Was Kai's proposition simply a joke or had she really meant it. Kleo did not know how to react to this, her surprise clearly showed on her face.
"You want me to come with you." Kleo scoffed as she walked after her. She stepped over one of the Blighted men's bodies, and leaned down to pick up her trusty brick. She had realized that it was foolish to walk out of her living quarters unarmed. It was time for Kleo to find a weapon.
Kleo soon became breathless. She wondered where Kai intended to be, where was she heading?
"You walk fast girl. Slow down. There ain't no one who needs saving anymore." she muttered, wheezing a little. She bent over, the stitch in her side getting worse by the minute. Kleo certainly needed to go out more. Her blighted leg started to ache with each step she took and the pollution that lingered in the air did not help. It heightened the stench of the foul rubbish and made Kleo cough. Kleo hadn't been out of her small room in a long time, she nearly forgot how bad it was.
The air felt clammy against her skin, it clogged her nose and made her clothes smell. Kleo remembered now, why she despised going outside. She heard a stranger emerge from behind them, Kleo looked up at the source of the voice. She stood up with a wince.
This alleyway was started to feel rather crowded to Kleo. Today was certainly a strange day.
