at some point, val got the sensation he was being watched. he couldn't say why: it wasn't as if there were eyes anywhere he could see, and he wasn't exactly traveling through a spooky forest or swamp.
still. maybe it was the absence of evening bird chatter, or the missing wind. something was telling him -- in the best way it knew how -- that something or someone besides him was here.
along his back a chill climbed upwards, his guardhairs prickling.
that something came before val knew it -- he was abruptly bludgeoned overhead, a weight across his spine he had never felt before. val screamed in terror, an insurgence of instinct compelling him to drop his shoulder and flee from whatever predator assailed him --
he didn't even catch the you are not food! of his pursuer -- val flew up the hills like they were licked in flames. he did not slow until he realized no footsteps pursued him: only then did he turn back down the foothills, peering at the creature that had put the fear of god in his heart.
a child.
it was a fucking child.
val's eyes narrowed, his heart still hammering in rhythmic gallop. "what -- and i can't stress this enough -- the fuck bro?!"
