[b]Alicia Hayden[/b] Watching the boy transform, he ended up basically as Alicia expected that one of his kind would look like. She had seen stranger monsters in her time as a magical girl, so the horns and the tail weren't particularly unusual. The shield was more problematic, but since he was keeping it at his side for the moment she wasn't worried. Besides, she had a way t deal with that sort of thing when it came down to it. As he walked she followed, stepping to the side to maintain that distance even as she tracked his motion. The term with the Z that he used was strange, but from context it was not hard to guess what he meant. She enjoyed the occasional compliment as the next person, but this was in a direction that she wasn't really a fan of. He did mention some things that she had not seen. It sounded like the fight had attracted more attention than she had thought, though she supposed she should have been worried to hear how many people were at the event, with how things were for Beacon at the moment. If it was to see which side was stronger, then she was not sure that they had mad a good showing of that, and if that had hurt Beacon then she would not forgive herself. "Because I wanted to know," she explained. "And yes, I am. I just don't feel like wasting my time in a fight when it isn't needed." She wasn't like the more radical members of the organization, though that should have been clear by now. If she was going to fight then she would have already been shooting. Of course she was unaware of Penny's imminent attack, and so had no quick response prepared. It seemed fate had chosen to determine her the fool after all. [@Shifter_Master][@BrokenPromise]
