[The rat stopped at the end of the alley to look very intently at something to the left of it, before running that way, and some scuffling sounds.
Casey tried very very hard not to let it run up his leg and then, when it did exactly that, he tried very very hard not to scream. It hadn't been as bad since he fought a guy called the freakin' Rat King, but phobias don't go away that easy. Which sucked.
He couldn't help the whine when he managed to kick the thing off, sending it flying past the opening to the alley and leaving him breathing much harder (and louder) than he realized he was.]
