"Curse... you... trees..."
Bazz's final words echoed in my ears, fading into the simulated breeze that brushed against my cheek.
The forest was silent now, save for the rustling leaves and the distant sounds of battle.
But I knew I wasn't truly alone.
A prickling sensation at the back of my neck told me I was being watched.
Truth be told, I had been harassed relentlessly by Jae's arrows during our chase.
I had no choice but to keep running towards the central apartment complex, hoping to reach the scene of the fight between Jan and Louise.
But for Bazz to have chased me this far...
Well, his tenacity is surely unrivalled compared to anyone else.
Luckily for me, a stroke of fortune (or perhaps a conveniently placed branch) intervened.
