The Little Girl?!

Sophie's cold words echoed through the vehicle as she stared at the corpse that was still bleeding out on the floor.

The hybrid girl furrowed her brows as she approached the body and cautiously prodded it using her blade-like appendages.

"What happened?" Cleo asked softly as she stepped in Sophie's direction.

"Watch out for the crystals on the ground!" Sophie immediately shouted as her girlfriend froze in place.

Cleo's foot was mere inches away from one of the bright red Kry'en crystals that had spilled from the palm of the shadow guard.

"My danger sense keeps going off whenever I look at those crystals," Sophie explained in a much calmer tone as she walked towards Cleo.

She looked down on the ground and took large steps to avoid the crystals that were in her path. 

It was impossible to know what would happen if her body or clothes made contact with the rare mineral and Sophie was not taking any chances.
