The Thief :D
((In all honesty, I think Tumblr has been hiding things from me. I didn't see this until recently, so urghhh D: So in the wee hours I'm awake, I will be coughing and writing these things out.
So because I am cold-high right now, I think I'll write this in an AU in Kyra's younger days 8'D))
A mundane afternoon dragged on lazily. Business was drier than Hunter's lips as he tried to wet them with his tongue. Mustering a yawn, his eyes squeezed shut, eyes tearing up slightly.
At that moment a small hand went out, grabbing a miscellaneous item. Perking up, the young salesman could have sworn he'd heard a dull clunk of some sort, but thought nothing of it. He couldn't shake the feeling, as the day had been fairly quiet and slow.
Looking away, letting his mind drift from thought to thought, the little shadow saw her chance again. A swift hand snatched another stone.
By the end of the afternoon, Hunter began to notice things were not right. He could have sworn there were more items to sell...or maybe it was just his head.
"Or maybe it's the little brat hiding right here." he grumbled down at the small girl clutching her loot. A rough hand reached down on the collar of her shirt and picked her up as if she were a meowth being picked up by the scruff of its neck.
Nervous giggling. The little white-haired shadow slammed a forehead against his. As he let go, she ran off as fast as she could, dropping whatever hindered her agility.
