To take cover from the rain Edwin walked inside an eerily quiet bookstore. Alice had dashed off somewhere before he had. He took a quick breath, walked up to the closest rack of books and began to skim them. Seconds later, a young woman came out from behind a door and sat behind her desk and began to work. Edwin noticed that she briefly looked up to rest her disgusted gaze upon the young man wearing such grimy clothes. He sighed deeply. Always, he thought to himself. This always happens. He finished skimming the books and silently walked out of the bookstore with the woman's gaze still following him.
As he stepped into the rain, he realized he would catch a cold at the rate it was going. All he had was an old shirt that didn't even provide him with any warmth...or protection from the ferocity of the rain. All in all, he didn't mind it but being sick is one of the worst things Edwin could think of.
A thought suddenly occurred to him. A raven's outside coat of feathers are water resistant....
And with that, while no one watched, he disappeared and a dark object—or perhaps creature—flew off into the rainy sky.
((btw, is it nighttime or daytime? ._.''))
