Reala soared through the city like a shooting star, trailing a thick, dazzling comet's tail of golden sparkles behind him. His body was sound again, his eyes ablaze with fresh purpose, and he was (and always had been) quite efficient in seeking out his brother. The Maren peered out through the gate, feeling the tug in his mind that told him he was close, spotting the figure dancing in the sky, some distance from the domes..... Reala found himself sneering at the guards as they called out to him, tried to persuade him to stay inside. He simply flew on, aiming a kick at the face of the loudest as he passed; the Paixaoan's head snapped back with an exclamation of pain, and he stumbled, holding his nose

NiGHTS had had his eyes closed as he executed some of the more difficult looking moves, though they came easily to him. It had been so boring being stuck inside the city, and neither Jackle nor Reala had provided much in the way of entertainment. The maren's eyes snapped open, however, at the tug within his mind that let him know his twin was near, and he stopped in mid-loop, looking over at his brother.

"Reala, what are you-" NiGHTS never got a chance to finish his sentence, however, as Reala rammed into him and he crashed into the ground. The maren cried out in surprise and pain, vision blurring even as he tried to get back up. "What are you doing?"

The impact was solid and satisfying both as their bodies collided and as he slammed NiGHTS into the ground, the jolt of the landing coursing through him. Reala had landed nicely, unlike his twin, with one knee planted solidly in his stomach, while the other rested on the ground by his side; one clawed hand firmly pinned down an arm, while the other had fisted into NiGHTS' collar. He smirked, grinding his knee into the other Maren's gut. "Why, NiGHTS. Didn't think I'd stay down forever, did you? I hope you've enjoyed your freedom while you could."

NiGHTS gave a choked, pained sound as Reala's knee struck his stomach and he struggled to shove the other off him with his free hand, glaring defiantly up at his brother even as he grinned. "Is this your way of showing thanks for earlier?" Despite the situation, however, NiGHTS was glad Reala had recovered. Not so glad, of course, that he'd just submit to him, but it was still there.

The jester winced at Reala's sadistic actions, gasping for breath. "What are you talking about?" It had to be that Reala had met up with Wizeman; Reala had seemed strangely lost without their creator earlier, and now his eyes were glimmering with their usual malicious purpose.

Reala only smirked, well-pleased at the edge he'd gotten; he did so love it when he came out on top.... It only proved the fact he was the superior twin of the pair of them. The effort to push him off earned only a sneer; NiGHTS wasn't even close to physically strong enough to manage pushing him around when he didn't want to be moved, especially when he was pinned like this. "Oh, of course. What better gift could I give you than a personal escort?" He only laughed at how NiGHTS winced, a rolling chuckle that suggested he was in a far better mood than he had been before. "You're coming with me." And that, more than anything, would confirm NiGHTS' suspicions. Without Wizeman here, where would they go?
