Absolutely clueless was Kris' current outward appearance. She was mostly like that but when outside, things could always be dangerous. Life on the streets made that an obvious fact and despite her outside appearance, she was paying attention to her surroundings. The ominous feeling in the air was obvious but she made no move for the weapons at her waist. Kris didn't even know if she was even the target of such a feeling.

She decided to stop her little walk and wait to see if that feeling would go away or get stronger. Either option was fine with her but it would be best to discover what the intentions were, of course.

At first Akiha didn't realize it was Kris she'd zeroed in on. The magician just happened to be the first sign of non-animal movement she'd seen. When she got close enough to identify her, she paused. This was someone who knew her

...this was also a fairly easy target from her perspective. Kris wasn't paying attention and was lazy. Her reaction time might just be slow enough to make this far less trouble than before.

And then Kris stopped.

Akiha stopped and shifted even deeper into the shadows. Her muscles tensed as she fought her instincts to just grab Kris, bite into her neck and drain her dry. Do not kill. Do not kill.

She didn't move a muscle. She could be patient...

And that feeling stopped with her. To her street honed instincts, it screamed at her that someone was definitely watching her. Kris could think of a million things to do but didn't quite feel like going that far. Just leaving would be the best option since she could get out fast.

Instead, she fired off a fireball in the middle of a clearing to light up the place. A small goblet of fire left her hand and exploded violently in fire and, naturally, lit up all the area around it.

"Hmmm?"

Was this going to come down to more of a fight then Akiha wanted?

The moment that fireball exploded, her eyes flickered to it and she absorbed the heat of it. Te light produced died but not before Kris got a glimpse of long red hair trailing behind her as she moved through the thicket.

She needed to move fast and quietly to circle about behind Kris.
