Roof access for the bounty hunters' guild is closed off to all those who lack the proper credentials. As one of the tallest buildings in Lumina, one can watch over nearly the entire city from it - and from the helm of his railgun, this is exactly what Mika was doing.
A shadow creeps up behind him - humanoid, with dark skin and hair. Weapons dangle off her belt beneath quick, strong hands daring a thief to try something. Mika turns as her shadow slips over his shoulder, and he nods quietly.
"Shadows on the horizon," Mika turns his attention back to the city landscape. Sure enough, something large can barely be seen moving beyond the city limits.
"Get out," Thoriane's voice is clear, though her form is different. "Just get out of the city."
"I didn't set this thing up for nothing," Mika tries to smile.
"Shoot straight, take out the first wave," Thoriane concedes. "Then get out."
Mika turns again, and no one is behind him. A deep blue dagger that shimmers like water lies on the roof behind him.
