Zhu-li noted the sounds of steel chains clinking and underbrush being violently swept aside, marking Asper's passage behind her. But after a while, complete silence fell over the trees. ''Dang. Where is he?! ''

Relying on her training, she froze midstep, catlike, to negate her own sounds and perked her senses to locate him, before realizing how ridiculous she looked. She remembered his semblance, which rendered her tactic useless when she couldn't hear, whereas he could easily track her: bright blue wasn't exactly camouflage.

With stealth and tracking out the window, she gave up all pretense of hiding and burst from the bushes, producing a large shield and holding it behind her back to protect against being shot at. Her destination was just ahead, the lake.

She didn't dare stop to look back as she made a beeline for the water. Hopefully Asper was still following?
