Shuriken already adored her uncle Plague, anyone who would give in to her demands like he did would have won her heart. The ivory man seemed special though and Ike could tell that the man would be one of her greatest allies as she grew up here in the Empire. The same went for his young snow leopard, who’s grin seemed just as bright and excited as her own. Kiyohime giggled lightly as the feline rubbed along her side and she returned the affection and ending with a sweet bow as Procella returned her greeting.

Things were getting serious now though as Plague arranged them and the cat and wolf faced each other. Ike’s defenses were set and Plague didn’t offer any corrections or praise but the girl was better off so her focus wasn’t upset. The girl was smart and observant, and as Procella looked to Plague Shuriken readied herself for the first attack. She watched carefully with dual toned eyes as Procella leapt at her.

Ever the clumsy one Shuriken did exactly the opposite as she should have. Instead of dodging the first paw swipe she sidestepped into the swipe. With a groan she was allowed to try again, and just the same her body again collided with the paw. With a defeated groan Shuriken plopped down right in front of the young snow leopard.
