Qi, an incredible thing that didn't exist in the world of Alterian, was exactly what Beatrix could use to her advantage. Outside the mental institution, cameras swept from side to side, their mechanical eyes tracking every inch of the outer walls.
In Pagna, there was nothing quite like them. But during their time in Alterian, the Pagna warriors had learned fast. They had asked Raze countless questions about this world's strange devices, and he'd pointed out that cameras weren't only inside buildings, they were all over the streets as well. Constant eyes, always watching.
That was why Beatrix moved when she did, at the perfect rhythm. Pouring Qi into her foot, she dashed forward and pressed her body against the cold wall. The wind barely shifted as she moved again, her timing precise. She slipped between the camera's turning arcs like a whisper of air, hiding in the blind spots.
