Blinded by her own laughter, Ninazu ironically failed to notice Caesar’s increasing rage and the tell-tale twitch of an elemental attack. When the lightning’s flash blinded her half-open eyes, Ninazu startled and snapped out of her laughing fit.

The branch cracked, but the thunderous boom covered the sound.
Suddenly dropping in the air, Ninazu instinctively rotated to land on her paws. The palm she’d chosen, however, wasn’t the tallest thing in the world. She landed on the sandy beach shoulder-first, the breath driven out of her lungs by the impact.
Glaring at Caesar—who else, out of those attending, would’ve dared launch lightning at her?—Ninazu stood up, right shoulder aching. “Touche, Lemonhead,” she hissed.
