Rough and Tumble, Chapter 78: Hearing Things
Chapter 78: Hearing Things
Trumble dropped down to walk with Jomei while Ethan rushed ahead, anxious to confirm that their trespasser was nothing more than an animal. Sense insisted that it must be. Slowing to a standstill, he paused to consider. If angels left no sign of their passing, wouldn’t it be the same for the Fallen?
Suddenly, the hint of a sound reached his ears. A hissing. A creaking. Wait… was that laughter?
Drawing his sword, Ethan slowly turned in a circle, trying to pinpoint its source.
“Spoil the fruit, spoils of war.”
The grating sing-song sent a chill down the Guardian’s spine.
