--- Kat ---
The area was not quite as empty as it seemed, though perhaps Appoline's vague poison sense wasn't so far off correct. As they were flying up towards the top of the area, something tried biting Kat. It moved in a flash and shot towards her with a spark of light. In truth, the only reason the 'tried' was in the sentence was not for lack of effort. A tiny snake made out of lightning chomped down on Kat's arm when she placed it between Appoline and whatever the attacker had been.
Alas, poor tiny little snake. It was not Kat's skin that broke but its own teeth when it tried to bite through her skin. Kat was a bit shocked at the sight, but before she could react, Appoline had swiped a bottle over the thing, capturing it. As soon as it was confined the snake freaked the hell out. It started rocketing around the glass like someone had just set it on fire or something.
