A Peculiar Encounter

(Hydra Star System- Floren Sector)

(Planet Corpeola- Capitol City Underground Sewers)

"Please don't run away!"

"Help me! Help me!"

"I'm begging you…"

The unknown child's heart wrenching sobs grew fainter as Sophie fled into the distance. The hybrid girl channeled her qi into her leg meridians and her speed greatly increased.

Nope. Nope… Hell no.

Her figure became a fast-moving blur as she ran through what seemed to be an endless labyrinth of tunnels.

She only stopped once the sounds of the child could not longer be heard. Sophie took a moment to catch her breath and glanced at her right arm.

Fuck!

She had completely forgotten that part of her bodysuit had gotten torn off when her arm had been ripped off her body by the bone spear.

Now her right arm was covered in foul smelling muck that was slightly brown. 

Sophie gagged and tried her best not to think about what the ooze was made of.
