Magnus #16
For Magnu moving unnoticed in the city wasn´t an easy task, especially because of how big he was so it was speaking volumes about his skills as a hunter and tracker that he managed to do so. Finding the right corner, he could hide behind, he waited for Tanako to leave the shipwright guild so he could finally take her down. What he didn´t expect however was to find Samson surrounded by a bunch of bullies, who were hellbent on beating him up because of his appearance.
The white-haired veteran cursed for himself. He instructed the boy to stay on the ship so he could take care of that devil without him witnessing it but now…now he had no other options than to save him and wait for another opportunity.
Magnus was just about to step out of his hiding place when he noticed Tanako rushing to the scene as well and not on feet but propelled by wings.
“So that´s the power you sell your soul for…”
He growled for himself angrily, but that anger faded a bid when she grabbed the overweight bully and slammed him against the wall. The rest of the men looked at her with a mixture of surprise and horror.
“God they are two of them! Monster! Help!”
As the coward they were, they panicked and started running away.
“Oh, I…thank you, nice wings!”
Samson smiled from under his hair, reaching towards Tanako in the hope he could touch them.
Magnus sighed, counting silently to ten to contain his anger and frustration, before stepping out of the shadow.
“And there I thoughta I told you to stay on the ship.”
He scolded Samson, who jumped maybe a whole meter high as he was startled, before quickly hiding behind Tanako.
“Well, guess now I have to take both of you for lunch don´t I?”
The veteran fighter grinned.
