The Meteor Shower (3) : It wouldn't be a star festival without a meteor shower! Right on time, a beautiful array of shooting stars graces the night sky. This time of year is unnaturally clear and it's incredibly easy to see the stars. Most meteor fragments appear to be little white or yellow lights streaming across the sky, but if you watch closely enough you may find that some of them seem to be a whole rainbow of colors. The scientists have reported that it's just different components burning up as they enter the atmosphere, but there's something undeniably magical about it.
Rose didn’t go out on her own often. The city was its own kind of dangerous, after all; she could easily end up in the wrong place at the wrong time and have to deal with a Negaverse officer, or two, or three. Fortunately Rose wasn’t lacking in friends. If she wanted to go out, no matter the reason, there was usually someone available.
Tonight was one of the rare occasions she found herself with a few brief moments of solitude. She’d been with one of her Meadowview friends, split up to walk home in different directions, then got a little nervous in the quiet. What if there was a youma around? What if she came across a Negaverse officer when it was too late to defend herself? Was it safer to walk the city as a civilian or as a Page? Rose could never decide. Both seemed equally dangerous in their own ways.
So she’d powered up in the heavy shadows beneath a grove of trees at the nearest park. At least as a Page she could sense when she was alone. It was easier to figure out which areas to avoid, and if she ran into trouble of the civilian variety she was better able to defend herself.
Since she was in the park already, Rose decided to linger for a little while. There was a clearing nearby with a good view of the sky. She’d always enjoyed looking at the stars, but since becoming a Page she found herself more drawn to them. A few meteors flew across, trailing thin streaks of fleeting color.
