"Copy, copy! This is Unit Three! Targets One and Two have appeared! They just left the Blood Vulture Corridor and are entering the city square. Do you want me to take a precision shot? I brought a baseball bat especially for this. I can knock them out without hurting them."
On the bustling city square in Scarlet Castle, little Ashina was disguised as a street performer and hiding at the roadside. She clutched her computing orb as she reported to "headquarters," her eyes darting toward the two tall men across the square.
