Awww! Poor Kuna. Despite being a fellow meerkat (or possibly because of it), I hadn't really liked him. But now with Jessica abusing him like that (and possibly because he's a child as well), I feel really bad for him. Because of that, this was probably my favorite part.
>The creature saw him running after him >and tried to dart down the nearby alleys, but >Hugo's legs were much longer and after two turns >he'd snagged the lithe fellow by the arm. If only he could have run on all fours. Meerkats can run at over 20 miles per hour. >The boy complained, tugging on his arm, and then >opening wide his jaws to reveal lots of little >teeth. He tried to bite down on Hugo's hand, but >the mage bopped him on the forehead with his >other hand. With its four relativity long canines, a normal sized meerkat can bite nearly all the way through a human hand (not through the bone of course). I'd be quite afraid to find out what one almost three times as large could do. >He wasn't sure how he knew it, but he was >absolutely certain that something deeper than the >schooling of an urchin child had just taken >place. If only you knew Hugo, if only you really knew. __________________________________________________ Great story as usual, and now I'm looking forward to Hallan's stories even more. I hope his writing is going well. -AlexSurikat
