Ko suddenly arched her back and hissed like a cat, facing to the right of Shion as they slowly began their way back to base. Shion looked over towards the commotion to see several owls sitting there, staring at her. [color=00aeef][i]Creepy.[/i][/color] she thought. She kept walking until suddenly one of them flew at her, not seemingly with malicious intent, but rather as if the action where completely normal and within its control. She was just about to use her magic when suddenly Ko jumped off her shoulder, her brown body moving at incredible speed as she flew through the air, smacking the owl down with her prehensile right ear, hard enough for the owl to bounce off the ground. 

[color=00aeef]"Uh... you got something to tell me, Ko?"[/color]

"Don't like owls. Was bullied by a puchuu who looked like one a lot. Bad memories, not really in the mood to talk about them. Too many owls around."

[color=00aeef]"I didn't know you had that kind of strength, either."[/color]

"No offense, and I know it's mostly my own fault, but there's a [i]lot[/i] that you don't know about puchuu."
