She moved up her trouser legs and sleeves, uncovering red street rash on her knees and elbows.

I knew right away, without Momo's mother telling me, that she'd been utilizing a retractable chain. This injury, cleaned knees, and elbows, is a typical risk of retractable chains. Unfit to expect the squirrel, Momo's mother hadn't locked the retractable chain, so Momo had the option to run 20 feet at maximum velocity before the rope ran out. Whenever it did, her energy was solid to such an extent that she recently continued onward, pulling mother to the ground and hauling her along on the chase.
