Celestia turned on the girl opposite her, "You've been following me," she jerked one of her fingers, and the girl fell to the floor clutching her chest,
"I don't like being followed, generally stalkers are frowned upon anyway of course, but I especially don't like it," she placed a silver ring with black markings back onto her finger.
The girl on the floor doubled over, resisting the urge to throw up her lunch,
"You... You're like me," she choked, "I just moved here, I haven't met any other mages so far, and... I'm gonna be sick," she placed a hand over her own mouth,
"Not over me please, if you don't mind I just bought these shoes, and I'm afraid I can't help you find anything magic related around here, I don't get involved with other people, I'm too dangerous, that's why I wear this," she held up her finger so the other girl could clearly see the ring on her finger,
"It's bound see, means I can't use magic while I wear it," and she waved her hand around for effect, "What were you looking for anyway? The sanctuary or something?"
Celestia watched her stand up, she was paler than she had been when she had first rounded on her, and she was pretty darn pale to start with, she swayed on her feet for a moment, before brushing the dark hair out of her face, "Or something like that... I'm Rilla by the way, Rilla Styx," her breath was becoming short and shallow, she seemed to be finding it difficult to stand.
"Celestia Terror... Are you okay? You look like you're about to pass out," she stepped back, she didn't know what to do with a fainting person, cause if she caught her that would be like violating her personal space and she didn't even know her, but letting her hit the concrete didn't sound like such a good idea either
"I probably am... Don't worry about it, happens all the time," and she fainted, Celestia caught her arm and hauled her upwards so her body weight was against her, "Now what do I do? I can't leave you unconcious in an alleyway... Guess you're coming with me then," and she lifted her, the years of training her mentor had put her through were really paying off now.
