The faunus slid through snow, kicking up a mini blizzard behind her as she tore through virgin blanket of white. The snowboard she rode worked by no mechanism but still was breaking speed over cars. Screams of enjoyment and pleasure escaped the catgirl’s mouth as she slid past trees and getting air on some bumps of snow. Amber had always wanted to snowboard but of course her family was too poor to afford food, let alone a fancy snowboard.
A beep buzzed in Amber’s ear. Murasaki was calling her again. “Yo, ‘Saki. What’s up?”
“Just wanted to wish you good luck.” He said. “I know life has been rough for you so far, but you're really going to make a difference here in the Omniverse.”
“We'll keep pushing forward no matter what. I'll be the strongest faunus in any universe.” She replied, keeping most of her focus on the path in front of her.
“Right. Well, good luck again. I love you.” The surprise of those words made Amber’s heart skip a beat. It distracted her so much that she lost balance. The snowboard hit a slight slope of ice causing Amber to be flung off. The board flipped, catching the snow upright. She slid for more than a dozen meters before stopping on thin snow. “Uh...too soon.”
The faunus groaned as she tried to respond. “WAY too soon, ‘Saki.” She wiped snow off her face and shook the access out of her helmet and hair.
“Sorry, I'll talk to you later.” With the that, the call ended. After regaining her senses from that fall she looked up and saw a hand in her face. A girl with dog ears- Holy shit is that Dusk? No. Dusk is dead. She looked around noticing she had interrupted a conversation, and look, Dwarveholm.
“Hey, are you alright?!” She asked leaning over to lend Amber a hand.
“Yeah, I'm fine.” She said using Jade to help herself up. “Thanks. So, what’s going on here?” She asked looking around at the whole party of people sitting outside of the city behind locked doors.
