Cat’s eyes blinked rapidly in surprise. It wasn’t often anyone got the drop on her, and yet it didn’t quite seem like that was the case here. Some kind of stare down seemed to have apparently happened, as she walked by.
"And you scared the draconian," a short creature spoke with anger in its voice. The gun in its hands seemed loaded, and it clearly wielded it with experience. "Give me one reason why I shouldn't shoot you where you stand."
With pause Cat swallowed hard. Removed a lock of hair from her forehead and moisturized her lips.
“I’ll give you 16, Little warrior,” Cat answered and took one step away from the lake in a none-threatening manner. “Because that is the number of painful seconds it will take for a water-lizard like that to skin you, before it eats you. I’ve seen it all before.”
The exact second, her pointing finger made the other shift focus, and take a look at the blank water surface, was the exact second her head made a radical turn to the side followed by the rest of her body. Away from the barrel of the gun, away from certain death.

Her blades were drawn almost as natural as the simple act of breathing, and now the fight was on…
