>"Perhaps we should through the back alleys instead of the open streets" She suggests.
>She looks at Taku, She seems to want to say something reassuring but doesn't seem she really knows what to say.
>Neither do you.

>"I-Im r-ready to g-go" Taku says.
>"Are you sure?" you ask.
>"I just want to go home" She replies.
>That's all you want at this point too.
>The three of you walk out the back door into the alley way.

>Usually whenever you looked down an alley you would see some rats or a stray cat.
>But not any more, they are where everypony else is now.

>Eventually you come to a point you have to cross the street.
>Nothing down either end of the street.
>You dart across.
>wait…
>Something catches your eye.
>On the street corner by a sign is what appears to be a sheet.
>As Moony and Taku scurry into the alley you decide to take a closer look.
>something catches your hoof causing you to trip.
>"Floor!" Taku shouts as she rushes to your side.
>You look for what tripped you.
>String
>just ordinary string pulled taut and tied to sign post and the nearby street light.
>"Are you ok?" Taku asks.
>"Yeah, I just wanted to see what this sheet was and I tripped over this." You say gesturing to the sheet and string respectively.
>Moonie comes over and inspects the string while you look at the sheet.
>As you pick it up you feel it's contents.
>Feels like dust and crumbs.
