Bit of powerplay, lemme know if it's too much. Also, sorry for the wait, I've been up to my nose in schoolwork. Dx[html]<style type="text/css">.byrequiem b {color:#bbc9df; font:9pt Georgia; font-weight:bold; line-height:1.0em; letter-spacing:-1px;}</style>

She was frightened by all the sounds and the sights of the exchange. Everything about her was visibly jumpy and uncertain, but the girl wouldn't admit what had happened to anyone. She, like Haku, saw the expressions in her family change as if she'd been slapped in the face with the certainty with which they had switched, and panic welled in her throat.

She took an instinctive step back, toward the man who had, despite not noticing anything, kept her safe throughout her capture, but then immediately rushed to the coyotes. She crashed right into her father, the tears already streaming but, somehow, she was still composed enough to say, It wasn't him, daddy, he didn't do anything.
