Katie weighed her strategy while managing her emotions so as not to go too far. Lately, she's been training to use a little of her curse without changing the weather. Unfortunately, she did not find a suitable situation to put her skills into practice.
Now she was ambushed by a dozen people causing her to smile enthusiastically. This was the right time to test her ability to control the red queen's power.
"Katalina, can you handle them?" came the worried sound from Estelle.
"Remind me next time never to go on unfamiliar streets."
"This is a shortcut."
"Not worth our lives."
"How do I know that many people have a grudge against you?"
Katie rolled her eyes lazily. "Hide there first."
Estelle nodded and immediately hid behind a nearby trash can.
Without any command, one person advanced first to attack Katie, and then the others joined.
