No, don't you dare. Don't you dare sprint away. He thought, before reaching into his back pocket. Living with gang taught him that he cannot stay unprotected. He reached for his dagger, and slowly pull it out, before hiding it against his skin. He walked closer every chance he can get when he notice the girl was not dumb. In fact, he watched as the girl would listen for his footsteps, or even the smallest sound that could scare her. The only thing she does not know is, the fact he prefers a chase.

three..
She stopped walking and inspected the area a little more. It was quiet, and almost too quiet for comfort.
Zenith began ducked down a little more. She started to think of a way to slow whatever was chasing her. Zenith grabbed a nearby rock and turned forward.
two...one..run!
Her legs pushed off the ground, giving her a good headstart. She ran as fast as she could possibly go. Hopefully her training would pay off.
As she was running, she tipped some trash cans over. "Please work..."

[nocтιѕ;]

Cursing under his breath, Aero ran after her. He was not in the mood to try and scavenger for food, no he needed a proper meal. He decided to throw the girl off by making a turn. He took a turn down a ally way and to run behind the building and to head down the other ally slowly, and trying to be quiet once more, waiting for the girl. His breath came out in pants, heavy ones but he calmed himself down to try and relax his breathing. His dagger dug into his skin, but he was not removing it until he has gotten his prey. "Come on, get closer.." He whispered.

[ᴄᴜʀsᴇ]

Zenith's face lit up when she had neared the end of the alley way.
If I could just climb there..leap there... And there... I should make it to my attic window!
She smiled at her plan and instantly stopped running, beginning to climb an old broken ladder.
She was tired, and could barely feel her limbs.
Well I clearly need to do more training-
Once Zenith reached the top of the ladder, she pounced and steadied her grip of a windowsill.
She looked around, deciding that the plan wouldn't work and that she'd have to take a longer route.
In her vue she saw the walkie talkie in her belt.
I'll warn the police.. If I could just..
Zenith took on hand off the windowsill and tried to reach for her walkie talkie.

[nocтιѕ;]

Seeing the girl run past, Aero ran after her, getting little bit more angry. He changed her down an ally way, seeing her climb up the broken ladder and jump. Fall. Fall down so I have a easier way to get your money. He begged in his mind, but she didn't. Seeing her take a hand off the windowsill and reach for the walkie talkie, he growled. "I would not do that sweetheart." He said before throwing his dagger at her sleeve. "Best if you just let me take something from you, and we be set to go."

[ᴄᴜʀsᴇ]

Zenith blinked. She watched as the sharp object pierced her sleeve. And to make things worst, she felt like sneezing.
No!
She held her breath, and shook her hand free from the dagger. The weapon shuddered onto the ground and that distracted her, the grip loosened slightly. She closed her eyes and slowly lifted her other hand to grip the windowsill.
Zenith swung onto a shed roof. She made a quick bow and leaped off the edge, receiving a heavy landing,
Ahh! Crap- my ankle..
Despite this, she still managed to sprint through the other alleyway. "Please don't follow...please don't follow..." She chanted within her mind.

[nocтιѕ;]

So much for making it easy. Aero said, before grabbing his dagger. He growled, before following behind her. Climbing up the ladder, he made a jump, and gotten onto the windowsill. Jumping onto the room, he walking around on the roof looking for her before seeing her run into the allyway. "Tusk tisk, another dead end, sweetheart." He said, jumping off the roof, following her into the ally way. He gripped the dagger and walked down the allyway towards her.

[ᴄᴜʀsᴇ]

Zenith stopped running at the sight of a dead end. By the time she turned around in attempts to go back, the pest was already there. She walked backwards and her back soon made contact with the wall.
At this point, I'm not sure where to go.
The fact that she was out of breath didn't help much either. She stood there, panting and looked around desperately.
The only option was to somehow harm him and buy time. But how?
Zenith looked directly at Aero. Inspecting his looks, she noticed it was identical to one of the files.
"Aero.." She whispered to herself. "..the thief that has near no information in his documents.."

[nocтιѕ;]

"Oh thank you sweetheart for knowing exactly who I am." He said, sarcastically. "Now be a dear and just give me your money. If you do so, you leave with no harm." He said, walking closer. His eyes looked over the girl before taking in the feature of the girl."Zenith?" He asked after a moment. "Don't tell me you became a cop. You did not just become a cop."He said, growling. Cops were never his best friend, which is normal for a crimal, but a criminal becoming a cop? He sees that as a way signing yourself to life of death.Aero took several more steps towards Zenith, close enough where he can see almost every detail of her.

[ᴄᴜʀsᴇ]

"I'm flattered that you know my name, I really am." Zenith forced a smirk. "Because, honestly, I never heard about you until your stupid document I had to sort. Strange. Normally criminals like you are well known throughout the country." She shrugged, giving him a meaningless grin. Then she had thought of a plan. She looked at the dagger, and back at Aero.
"So all I have to do is give you my valuables so I can live another day?" She asked, pretending to look surprised. "Well, in this case, search my pockets and take what you need." She frowned and put her hands behind her back. She ignored the mention of a criminal becoming a cop completely.
