Madotsuki paid no heed to the crowd as she plowed through them, knocking several people aside and getting cussed out for her efforts. The Stormtroopers, on the other hand, commanded such a presence that the passersby willingly parted for them, although the dreamer could tell from the look on their faces that few of them were happy with the arrangement. The longer she stayed here, the more she found this city to be a very hostile place.
Even though she wanted to return to that pseudo-Nexus and try another portal, there just wasn't any way she could make it back there with guards on her tail, even if she knew where she was relative to it. Maybe angering the guards had been a bad idea. She just needed to hide and lay low for a while until this blew over.
Except there was nowhere to hide! Cameras were everywhere! She had ducked into the crowd expecting them to help her blend in, not part for the Stormtroopers. What if she claimed that they were harassing her? ...No, if this group of people seemed so spineless that they'd part for them, no questions asked, then they'd probably believe anything the Troopers said. Pathetic, but what did she expect? A riot rallying at her side?
The only solution was to not get caught. She didn't have any ideas at the moment, but she could improvise.
Coming up was a busy intersection, with chrome hovercars beeping at each other to get going. People always had some place to be, it seemed. Refusing to slow down, she vaulted over a car and landed on the roof of another, grasping on for dear life with her knife clenched in her mouth by her teeth. Mass honking ensued as her little stunt distracted another driver to the point that they rammed into another vehicle, billowing smoke everywhere.
Wind whipped the dreamer's pigtails as she and the unaware driver she was currently hitchhiking rocketed down the street and turned a corner. Only when the cacophony of horns ceased did she dare to look back. Thankfully, there were no Stormtroopers, although the people that were there were giving her odd looks. A teenage girl hitching a ride on the top of a car was quite the strange sight, after all.
