章 21: Consequences of war

"Bro, behind you!" Bo shouted as Ku Lo's eyes opened.

Danger!? His head spun to see the person who'd followed him yet vanished when Bo had shown up. This is it? Even if he somehow managed to dodge this punch, his enemy would still crush him. Ku Lo closed his eyes and his cheek shifted away from the punch as a teardrop ran on it.

"Not so fast," a female voice said, but it wasn't Feng Huling.

"What?" the surprisal came from the person throwing the punch.

"Nobody else gets to hit him."

Ku Lo's eyes opened to see that a woman had locked the fist from moving further by grasping its wrist. His focus followed the jade hand till he came across a long, orange ponytail mirroring her hips. Rin… Tin… Tin…

The man behind the fist laughed. "You get to dictate that?"

"Yes," Rin Tin Tin responded.

The hand started to twist in a way it shouldn't. Bones pierced out from under the skin, accompanied by snaps and screams. "AAarghh! My hand!"
