Shannon - Outside Penrose City Limits
The bus she was riding on made a stop to pick up and drop off some passengers. Whilst sitting she suddenly noticed an aura move over the area. It was hard to say what it was or where it came from. But she had been told that something big was going on, and this felt like it fit the bill. Getting up she grabbed her things and stepped off the bus. Rushing away from sight she transformed and put her staff to the ground. Something rather large was moving around some ways away. If it were smaller perhaps she wouldn't have noticed.
"Hm..." Moving further away from the road she waited until the bus left the stop.
Left alone Shannon hardened the ground under her feet and made the surface launch upward. Tossing herself high into the air she got a better view around her. Most of it was pretty open space. With less obstruction she could see a few specks in the distance. One seemed brighter than the other. It wasn't exactly in the direction of Penrose, but not that far off from it. Something big was going down there so she started off in that way.
Traveling by surfing the rolling earth beneath her, Shannon closed the distance to what appeared to be angels surrounding a golden dragon. Further up a portal was open to somewhere. She wasn't familiar with these magical girls but they all appeared to be in fear and frozen to some extent. Though she was on the ground she positioned herself a little ways in front of the golden dragon, as in between the girls and the dragon as she could without being in the air. Raising her voice she tried to draw their attention.
"I don't know what's going on here but clearly we have a problem!" She pointed her staff toward Zani.
"I don't really care what your motive is. I will not stand by and watch my fellow magical girls be bullied or frightened. If I am mistaken please correct me. Otherwise consider your next move carefully." Despite usually being friendly this was a different circumstance. She was not addressing another magical girl, and the ones that where here were armed. She had also noticed by this point that the dragon's wing had been damaged by multiple gunfire, indicating that they had been attacking with intent. Still she didn't want to jump to conclusions and would at the very least give one opportunity to ever a monster.
