Mai moved as the gang began to climb aboard their Vehicles. The Cat firmly clutched in her hands, pulled tightly against her chest, its purring vibrating through her Upper body and calming her nerves.
Passer-by looked towards the Mobilizing gang, eyes heavy with suspision, or was it Hostility? Every town was the same, townfolk knee deep in their own Paranoia and Xenophobia, it always worked on her nerves, no matter, the Road was her home, her bed the side seat of a battered Truck.
She griped the cat tighter with one arm as she reached up as high as she could to the hot Truck door handle, the sun's reflection slightly dazzling her as she did so. she opened the door and clambered up, it could almost be called Comical seeing a small girl lift herself into a high Truck seat.
Having made it onto the seat she switched the arm which held the cat close, it meowed in annoyance at being Juggled about, she whispered Sweet apologese as she reached out as far as she could to close the Heavy truck door with a loud bang. Safe at last.
She began to stroke the cat as her attention was grabbed by the strange destortion of the road ahead by the Heatwave.
I thought it was pretty...The Flames she silently Mummured.
