Precious Mortelium

"Help! Help me catch that brat, he got the Mortelium plant." The Head Pharmacist looked at Vaughn and Zenia who just got off the carriage.

"My Mortelium plant?!" Zenia asked and suddenly dashed to the direction of the thief.

The Head Pharmacist suddenly stopped running when he saw Zenia ran past him and left a strong gust of wind. Vaughn only shook his head.

'This little devil…'

Lewis, the Head Pharmacist, gave Vaughn a puzzled look. Vaughn replied by shrugging his shoulders. Lewis looked at the direction that the thief and Zenia disappeared to.

The thief was fast, but Zenia was faster. It was a good thing that the chase happened inside the premises of the Royal Apothecary, and no one else was around. Zenia finally caught the little thief. It was a little lady around eleven or twelve years old.

She lifted the child and said, "You're a girl! Why did you do that?"
