Grouse Thicket A BOY IS A GUN

his paw couldn’t even reach the ground before something flew towards his face. it was so fast, too fast to dodge. the trespasser swatted his side with a force he’d never felt before and orochi was easily toppled.

how will he defend it? i’ll fight you! the boy leaped towards the very paw that striked him, eager to grasp it between his little jaws.
