Immediately:
"Ow!"
A rock, thrown from the alley below, caught Trevor's leg right above where he'd been wounded during his training exercise. Normally, as soon as the exercise was completed, the Azure would use one of their healers to patch him up. Now, though...
"Ow!"
They both looked down.
How many people were down there in the dark?
Now, a bunch of rocks flew up at them.
"Get the fuck out of here!" Trevor heard someone yell.
"Leave us the hell alone!" This from someone else.
"That guy's right," Niki said. "Let's go. Someone down there might have a gun. Those rocks might turn into bullets at any second."
"But why? What are we even doing here? Why did the Azure send us here?"
"WHAT IN THE SWEET FUCK IS GOING ON?"
