A shard of pure starlight pierced through the night sky, flying in a straight line between buildings towards the rooftop Nico was fighting on. It struck the eye of the snake that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pierced that too; the image began to disperse, then fell apart completely as a second shard impacted a moment after the first.

Half a block away, Shun lowered her bow and turned around with a bright smile on her face and an expectant glint in her eye. [color=fff200]“Did you see that? Hey! Where did you go?”[/color] The rooftop behind her was empty, so she hopped down from the edge of the building and went in search of her missing audience. [color=fff200]“Here kitty, kitty, kitty.”[/color] A soft meow from the left had her turning again to see a black cat staring at her with an unimpressed expression. Shun smiled again, striking a pose with her bow and flashing a victory sign with her other hand. The cat flicked its tail, but otherwise ignored her.

Shun deflated.

[color=fff200]“That’s it? Come on, you dragged me all the way across these buildings to this fight and we made it just in time. The least you can do is loo-hey!”[/color]

The cat stood and leapt off the building. Hurrying to the edge, Shun looked down onto the see the cat staring up at her from the next roof over. Shun looked back, gazing into oval pupils and feeling herself gradually lose the staring match. She raised an eyebrow. [color=fff200]“You want me to go over there? I fight better from a distance you know.”[/color] The cat turned to leave. [color=fff200]“Alright fine! I’ll follow you. Stupid, bossy cat.”[/color]
