Dark, damp, and smelled like days-old garbage. Well, then again, that's what the main smell of an alley normally is, what with people's garbage festering against the stone walls and metal fences. It was definitely time for Helios to use some of that training and put it to good use. Almost in a complete zen state of mind, Helios began to relax his body, slowing his breathing so that he would be able to tolerate the stank of the alleyway that much more, and began to slow down his own heartbeat. From this, Helios couldn't detect the slightest of sounds much easier. Scanning the area with his eyes, shifting around to the trees above, to the nooks and crannies of the alleyway and the intersection, to the various garbage bags that littered the area. But he couldn't see or notice anything slight, as though it was just vacant. It seemed as though the lead wasn't going anywhere.
"Nyah~" Suddnly, from behind to the side of Helios he could hear a rather faint sound. High pitched, almost squeaky. Turning to see slowly, he saw a small black cat with a pink bow on its head nestled in one of the tree branches overhead. It seemed in Helios' dash to the alleyway he completely overlooked the surroundings beforehand. "Nyahhhhh~" It seemed that the cat was quite comfortable amongst the branches too, using a bundle of leaves as a make-shift covering to rest its body. Still, something was odd about this cat.
Helios took out the small pink bow, looking at it carefully before shifting his head up to the cat that laid among the canopies, watching it as it gazed back to him, and then looked back at the bow again, examinining it fully. It was no mistaking it; it was a silk pink ribbon, just like the one in the photo. Using the photo as a cross-reference, he looked at the bow on the cat's head in the picture. The bow on the cat and the picture were identical. "I don't understand. This cat is wearing a bow like in the photo... but I have the bow right here." It was definitely odd for Helios, almost to the point that he just couldn't figure it out. However, suddenly something clicked in his mind. Holding up the bow in front of his eyes, while keeping the cat in his sight, he noticed the bow was much smaller. The cat seemed to following the bow with its head as Helios raised his hand. "Unless... Ayane has a second bow?" It was unfortunate but the picture only showed Ayane's head and half of her body. Perhaps the bow was adorned to her tail.
The cat gave off a little yawn, showing off its pearly white fangs and sharp claws within its paws, stretching out its front legs infront of itself along the branches before hopping down to the other side of a tall chain-linked fence and running off. "Oh god damnit..." Helios curse to himself and hand to give chase. Fortunately he was quick on his feet and ended up taking a running leap a top of the fence; it was sturdy enough to take his own small weight so it had little chance of buckling under the load. Hopping into the tree, and then onto the rooftop of the building several meters in front of him, Helios began to scout the area, quickly keeping a lock onto Ayane as she scampered through the coutyards of the various buildings. Taking off with a quick sprint, Helios began to jump from rooftop to rooftop like... well, like a ninja, keeping his eye of Ayane. However, she was very nimble, so it would be difficult to catch her with conventional methods.
Helios decided to give chase on ground level, jumping off of the last building and nearly cutting up Ayane has she not ducked into another alleyway. As Helios turned the corner, he couldn't see her body, as though she turned to thin air. The sun was beginning to rise to the west, but as that came to fruition the sun began to shien down the alleyway, giving off a series of shadows; some of bags, one of Helios, and then one rather short one that was shaped like a cat began to appear on the wall at the far side. Helios noticed that Ayane was trying to hide amongst some of the bags and decided to play a little trick. using his Hyouton, Helios created a small tile using Tobihaneru. Slowly he began to move it through the air above the cat. Unnoticed, Helios quickly let loose of the chakra within the ice, suddenly turning into a torrent of water and drenching Ayane, causing her to jump so high she ended up jumping over the bags and into Helios' field of vision. Quickly with a single handsign, the water around the joints of the legs began to freeze. Suddenly, Ayane was unable to move her legs, causing her to panic and fall over. Quickly running up to her, Helios grabbed her by her waist and held her close and releasing the ice from her to avoid any harm that could be brought from using the ice.
"yeah you were quick, and you were smart," helios praised, before smirking and taunting the poor soaked feline. "But I'm just simply better. Now, let's return you to your owner.
