Day 19.- ›What the Living Map remembers‹

     Hendry Mildmay walked quietly to the Map Room and locked the door again behind him.
     He switched the light on and ran to the middle of the room. With his gaze he found a little Wunderground station. The bearwun before the culmination was close to it, throwing away the containers and all the stuff that came to his way.
     The two little girls were arguing at the station. The one with long black hair stamped her foot and the table above their heads roared with fire.
     "There you go," the young teacher smiled icily at the map, as the Hollowpoxed fight coach roared and made his way to the station.
     The girls discovered the danger already. They pinned themselfs to the wall and the green-haired one threw something forward. The tiny sound of the metal bin wasn't there to hear because of the other - noisier - parts of Nevermoor, but Henry could imagine.
Girls started to run. They sprinted trought the street, when the green haired one dropped down at the ground and remained there.
     "Smart Heloise," Mildmay whispered.
     But the other girl was still running. She saw Heloise drop down, but she didn't return. Thought her way she scanned the place. Mildmay could hear Morrigan's thoughts tuning trough her head.
     Tricksy Lane... Wait. Tricksy Lane! Red allert. Red allert stands for...
     "C'mon," Mildmay murmured to her.
     Yeah. She took the left turning.
     The young teacher smirked. Mission accomplished. President will be proud.
