A low wolf-whistle escaped her lips as she noticed the uncommon number of people who gathered at the portal.

While she waited to go inside, the smallish blonde took notice of the latest person to get in the bar. The cards in Clair's holster felt weirdly agitated as he approached the girl, almost as if they felt something familiar in her. However, that wasn't what made her come closer but rather something much simpler.

[b][color=gold]"The name's Clair by the way,"[/color][/b] she said with a beaming smile in her face.

[b][color=gold]"Oh, wait! I guess we got a group after all. If you wanna come, that is,"[/color][/b] Clair said as she noticed that she had been drafted into one of the parties already.

Even if the sound of steps wasn't enough to denounce a presence in the same direction, the heavy pressure of the aura coming from the shadows would.

[b][color=goldenrod]"Would you mind if I ask who are you and what are you doing in a place like this at this hour?"[/color][/b] a young female voice—which not low enough to be called a full contralto but almost there—asked as its owner came into the more lit are near the group, revealing herself to be a [url=https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/2946219]young-looking, dark-winged girl wearing a school uniform[/url], staring at everyone of them with her ruby-like eyes.
