Here's a drabble that popped into my head and seemed to fit today's [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday challenge ("Twist/Plot")

Survival

Once when she was 12, Sam Zabuto lost Kendra in a crowd.

He found her staring at a group of dancers in front of a flatbed truck with an old-fashioned sound system blasting bass-heavy music; Marley, Tosh, Burning Spear. A boy, maybe 14, took her hand with a smile and pulled her into the throng. She danced for a few moments; when she saw Zabuto, she obediently returned to him.

All the way home there was a twist in her step, a backbeat of her own.

It took an extra week of training to get her defensive stance right again.

Heh.

Kendra actually has a number of simple cotton t-shirts, all equally practical and unflattering. Zabuto buys them in bulk.
