It occurred to Scarlet that this knowledge should terrify her, but she couldn't recall why.
Rather, she felt embarrassed to be listening in. It wasn't her place to be curious.
She tried to ignore the conversation, allowing her mind to muddle and wander.
Inside her head, she recited childhood rhymes that she hadn't thought of in years.

"You are Linh Cinder," she said. "You are a wanted fugitive. I am required to alert authorities."
"Er, sorry, but this is a bad time for me." Stepping back, Cinder raised her prosthetic hand and
fired a tranquilizer dart at the woman's thigh. It clanged, the tip catching briefly in the fabric
of her pants, before it fell to the floor. That was all the confirmation she needed.
Cinder clenched her jaw and swung for the side of the woman's head, but the
woman ducked and whipped a leg up, her foot catching Cinder in the side.
