"Because then I'd be pegged down for murder fool. Without someone to see the evidence for themselves I have no witnesses to bring to attention if caught. I was hoping I wouldn't get involved in this whole ordeal at all. I saw a man threatening a little girl and I found such a thing to be disgusting so in curiosity I followed her up until this point in time. So in short I'm not over there gutting them for the simple reason of not wanting to be incriminated or to be thrown in jail as an accomplice of something I haven't done. I would have only done something if the little girl couldn't do anything herself. Besides there's a group of them and I'd prefer to have at least one person at my back as good as I am everyone makes at least one mistake in battle." Zaku said smoothly as if he were simply explaining why had chosen to drink tea over water or had ordered something else at a pub than the rest of the crew. Zaku in all honestly just wanted to get this over with he had better things to do than protecting young children from thieves and murderers...but at the same time he couldn't stand little children being picked on. Something about it just made him remember his past that made his skin crawl. "Those who would scam a child are scum and I despise germs and illness. Therefore I will amputate this festering wound before it rots out this town then I am going back to the inn to get some sleep. I am no hero I'm merely being practical."
