At the heart of which was the [i]Louvre[/i]. Rue Montorgueil came off the Grand Avenue, running by [i]Saint-Eustache[/i] and filled with cobblestones. Cars tended to avoid the area, allowing pedestrians to mill through the streets. It had become a popular place for daily shopping. The street was lined with bakeries, fishmongers, cafes. The smells that would travel on the breeze could set the mind -- and the stomach -- alight. Provided off course, that one wasn’t walking by the herring barrel outside the fish cart. That didn’t smell nearly as nice. It was, however, a good reminder of what the Seine smelled like. The boy was dirty. He’d slept in these clothes for... well, to be honest, he wasn’t sure. He’d lost track of the days. The tweed jacket was too large, pock-marked with holes. He’d found it in the trash outside a home, and it had fit well enough to help keep warm. His fingers stuck out from the woolen gloves that managed to still cover most of his hands. He moved through the crowd like a shadow. No one seemed to notice him, while he seemed to navigate the confines and cluster of bodies with a preternatural grace that belied a sense of ease. Stepping off the street, the raven-haired waif approached where a trio of urchins huddled together for warmth in an alleyway. Reaching inside his coat, the boy produced two croissants, which he divided in two as he passed the morsels out for the four of them. It wasn’t much. But it was breakfast. And a few moneyclips or wallets that had happened into his possession. Popping the half a pastry in his mouth, the boy put his back to the side of the building and slid down so that he was sitting on the ground as he started to go through what he’d collected. He would need to be moving on soon. That was always how it was. Always how it had been. He didn’t remember why, he’d just found himself on the road. And so he kept traveling. Kept moving. He passed a few of the francs around. These kids had helped him to get his bearings in Paris. It was a busy city. With a lot of police who were either looking to grab them or shoo them away. Neither option was particularly appealing. Gasps rose up from the street. Turning his head, the boy was puzzled for a moment to discover the people standing still, their mouths agape and their heads pointed up at the sky. As he craned his head back, he saw it. It was something moving in the sky. Not a plane. Something... [i]else[/i]. A knot started to form in the pit of his stomach. And, not from hunger this time. He needed to move. [b]Soon[/b].[/color][/indent][/hider]
