She ran her fingertips lightly over the surface of the wheels, feeling the areas where the rubber had cracked and come apart. It wasn't the best chair, but it was the only one that they had been able to find for her. And it was better than nothing, better than sitting in her room all day like she had before Saul had provided the wheelchair for her. She was lucky to have it. The homely female repositioned herself in her chair as she sat, reaching down to scratch a bit at the cast that encased her leg. It had been re-broken and was healing once more, the bones held in place by the tight pieces of fabric that her father had wrapped carefully around it. The break was high in her leg and she kept the leg completely immobilized, for the most part.
Wretch pulled back on one wheel, turning the chair around and beginning to exit the room. She'd been keeping to the ground floor while her leg healed, so it wasn't long before she was able to leave the building completely. A few clouds rolled in the sky overhead, but it didn't look like anything too serious. The girl rolled herself down the street that Cerne Rise sat upon, then down another side street. This area was mainly residential, but she knew that there were areas in Trenton that were different. She started toward the shops, hoping to find more jewelry to add to the collection of bracelets that already sat upon her wrists.
As she rolled herself along, the young adult felt a small prick of coldness hit her nose. Was something dripping on her? She paid it no heed as she went until another came, then another. No! It couldn't be raining - it had looked like a nice, temperate day. If there was one thing Wretch didn't like more than the ocean, it was rain. She hated being wet in general and having to dry off from it. She tried to hurry, a frown creasing her features as her aqua eyes went to the heavens once more. Dark clouds were rolling in more quickly than before, lightning streaking across the sky. She had to find somewhere to seek shelter!
