2. My muse throws a punch at yours.
The moment she arrived on Neo Shousis, she could tell that she wasn’t going to exactly enjoy her stay - and it wasn’t because of the rain (at least not mostly). In a city as populated as this, with such diversity, there shouldn’t be any surprise to know that members of the Exodus were stationed here - perhaps not to conquer but to occupy and gather intel. Who knew what they’d be up to.
As much as she hated it, her arrival didn’t go unnoticed. However, she was in blissful ignorance as she roamed the city for a few days, selling some items she’d found on her travels for enough money to buy a room to stay in.
On the third day, she couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching her - following her. In her young curiosity, she had wondered what the nightlife was like and stayed out late. She watched the daytime bustle turn into a slower trickle of activity as most made way to their homes or nightlife bars, leaving the streets somewhat devoid of life, save for her and a few others scattered about.
It still didn’t shake the feeling that she was being observed.
Vynera did what came first to her mind; Trying to not be too obvious about it, she quickens her pace a bit. Meanwhile her ears swivel around a bit to try and hear her surroundings better - listening for footsteps. Then, she takes a sudden turn, moves and then turns again seemingly at random-
Until she came to a dead end.
“Oh, great...” She stares up at the wall. Too high to climb and no other way through that she could see. She’s left cornered in a small alleyway. Maybe she was just being paranoid, or perhaps the person following her decided to leave. Wishful thinking at best, she shifts back toward the entryway of the area and peeks around the corner.
In the darkness it’s a little difficult to make out, but a flickering light illuminates a figure for a brief moment. Instantly, she ducks back behind the corner. Her hunch was right, it seemed. If she ran now, she’d surely be chased, if she stayed...
It didn’t matter, her ears twitch when she catches the footsteps getting closer. Maybe if she could disorient them long enough...
Without thinking on it too much more, Vynera waits until they’re about to come close before she jumps out of her hiding space, and with a shout, she throws an enclosed fist right at the taller figure.
