It was easy enough to shake off, if only because someone was happy to yank it off herself, whipping it first down and then off as soon as Ruby hit the ground. Hush spun in Neo's hands, and she brought it up, pressing the button to make its blade extend. Reaching back, she had a look of immense satisfaction in her eyes as it came back for the strike she'd dreamed of for two years.
And that was when it happened.
There was a hiss, and one of the cats seemed to teleport like smoke down to the ground, landing right on top of Ruby and hissing up. Smoke swirled around Neo's hand and she staggered back, feeling her fingers go numb. Her other hand grabbed the umbrella, retracting the blade and she saw that the cats stopped approaching, just seeming to watch the two of them, to stand between them.
She brought the tip of her weapon down to the ground and stared with a narrowed gaze. Of course her life couldn't be that easy. Could it? The feeling was returning to her hand but she could see it in those things' eyes. They were dangerous. More dangerous than Grimm. Faster too.
