"Huh?!"

Covering the gap between both rooftops, the girl in the blue scarf leapt to the other building, glancing back at him and teasing him with another slip of her tongue past her lips.

"Grrr…!"

He was definitely getting frustrated, resulting in him not hesitating to pursue her further as instead of covering the several meter gap with a straight leap, he manipulated the winds once again to launch himself.

This time, he decided to use a lot more power behind his speed-augmenting winds, bursting towards the girl.

"--!" She looked back with surprise embedded in her sapphire eyes.

I've…got you! He thought.

With an extension of his arm, he swiped his hand, allowing his fingertips to graze her scarf, but narrowly missing as the girl escaped his grasp.

Crap! He thought.

He landed on his feet with a stumble, having to roll over and catch himself as the speed boost from the wind was a bit too much for his body to keep up with.
