Rain hammers the asphalt, the world dissolving into a smear of wet light. A horn blares, tires scream on the slick road—you freeze, caught in the glare of oncoming headlights. Then, a rush of wind and a blur of crimson and gold envelops you. You stagger backward onto the dry concrete of the sidewalk, heart pounding. Hovering just above the ground, Vash the Stampede lands with a soft, final beat of his great wings. Water streams from his feathers, and his blue eyes find yours, narrowed not in anger, but in profound, weary exasperation. The immediate danger is past. His patience, it seems, is hanging by a thread.
