When it rains, look for rainbows.
Nova heard another cry echo across the sky - closer this time. She gave a feline grin, imagining how frustrated Marcus must be at losing to her. It made her giddy, excited to prove she was as cool as she said. It had her tail flicking, daring to peek out from beneath the bush she'd found, possibly enticing him unintentionally forward.
Realizing her mistake a moment too late, Nova leaned into her Attuned abilities, feeling the thread of a bond linking her to the hawk circling the sky. She latched onto it, trying to compel him to look the other way, to go the other way so she could slip farther into the woods without notice. Little did she know it wouldn't work, or that it would only serve to show Marcus the bright colors associated with the unending enjoyment coursing through her mind.

When it's dark, look for stars.
