Shin Ghost Note"What is it?" Albretch spoke in a less than assertive tone.
Zana's fingers closed around the grip of The Queen of Hearts as it sprang up to meet her palm. She leapt to close the distance between herself and the stranger she'd challenged. While midair, The Queen of Hearts extended to its full length, clicking slightly as each piece snapped neatly into place.
"Wrong answer. Off with your head!"
A single shot rang out in the airship, the recoil of which propelled Zana into a whirlwind spin. Combining the momentum with her own strength, she brought the singing blade of The Queen of Hearts to bear against the surprised boy. The blade struck true, cleaving cleanly through the boy's neck and severing his head from his body. Both dropped heavily to the floor.
As the remnants of the boy's life seeped out of his head through what remained of his neck, Zana crouched to bring herself into the center of the fallen head's vision. "Inattentiveness is weakness 'round here. I just saved ya the disgrace of falling to a Beowulf. Welcome to Underland!" With a smile she turned and left the bloody mess to find something else to do on the airship.
Hopefully there'd be enough students left to form even a single team when they reached Beacon.
Back in the real world, though, Zana met the response by comically deflating. She slumped forward, arms going limp momentarily to sway gently beneath her torso. This lasted mere seconds before she recomposed herself, drawing The Queen of Diamonds with her left hand while tucking loose hair behind her fake human ears with the right.
"'It' is simple, really. You? Bored. Me? Getting bored-er. Us? Fight." Zana leveled her pistol-length weapon at the boy, her face split in a grin. "Whaddya say, buddy?"
