[ One designed to raze the world, to light battlegrounds in shades of orange and red..

The other made to take in the shadows, siphoning life with well-placed blades and cunning hands..

Both incarnations of human anger. Different sides of a blade, destined to be nothing more than a tool in the hands of their makers.

The other girl advances forward, but Sui Feng does not move. Meets those deadened eyes with fearlessness, equally as reckless as the detachment mirrored back. Her skin begins to vibrate, the thrum of activating machines--

--and then the pain of them, washing against her in a tidal wave. They're not ready to be used yet, these mods, she hasn't fully integrated--

--doesn't matter. When the blonde seems imminently on her, she steps forward, her form flickering in and out of existence, the phase-shift unsteady and unstable. Dark mist loosely aligned into a human form races onward, pushes not at the girl, but means to move through her. ]

[Her eyes go wide, and Hanna begins to move, faster than imagined but not fast enough to phase in and out of this plane of existence.

Her body heat soars, waves of heat rolling off her skin like an oncoming drought. There's no way she can fight something that doesn't exist. She'd seen that with Travis, the master of illusion, forcing people to punch at nothing and fall down at everything.

All she can do is move from the shadow. If there's a place to move, a place to fall, a place to focus on reality, then there's a chance to escape with half a life.

Why Hanna even cares to survive remains a mystery.]
