Re: Bootstrap (1-31-2019)
Warpath had been close, closer than the Apache wanted to admit to himself. The first scream, the cry of a mother's worst nightmare had been within earshot of the newly dubbed God of the Hunt... If only. Warpath arrived first, followed by the city guard, then after Jimmy had quickly surveyed the area, Thor appeared in the doorway.
"Trail's gone cold," Jimmy informed the Allfather. Thor's expression was grim beyond belief and the king's eyes remained fixated on the child's door, inside the home his presence seemed to dwarf. "I'll check again," he quietly reassured the king then exited the home.
Outside, the night's chill ran through Warpath's body... except it lingered - then strengthened. He stepped away from the door, then stumbled, his palms burned with the friction against the paved ground. His hair dangled on either side of his face, which blocked his view of anything but the ground. "Zap..." he breathed out in a huff and finally raised his gaze toward the palace. "What... is... happening?" Light pulsed from within the walls and Jimmy's arms gave out, he collapsed - compelled by his connection to Eva into a street nap.
