The brunette's instincts steadily went to a level where she subconsciously prepared for hostile engagements, especially when she saw those collections of lights; as mesmerizing as they might be, the circumstances surrounding them made them ominous instead.

Right, this was a battle, not target practice, their enemy was going to shoot back. [color=e95f1b][b]"Supplice, please assist Selene, over."[/b][/color] Fortunately, they weren't working alone.
