Rody was so focused on running and planning the escape route in his head that the sudden speaking caused him to trip. He didn't fall but- "Why are you following me?" He spoke up in confusion, glancing over at the taller woman.
"If you must know, I'm in the middle of doing my job! Not much time for chit chat, sorry." At that moment, Pino flew a few feet in front of the woman's face, chirping loudly to distract her or cause her to stop.
Having someone on his trail like this is risky for his type of occupation.

Looked like those two were in a hurry or were running from something, either way it had caught Serena’s interest. When something caught her interest naturally she would want to investigate it to see what was going on there, turning back to see if anyone was following them before seeing if anyone was looking at her. Thankfully nobody was so just to be a little safe the girl flickered her wrist and made a cloud of smoke appear behind her before giving chase to the brunette and his feathered friend. If someone was following then it may take a second to get through the smoke if they were looking but by then they would be long gone so it works out! Maybe she would even make her first friend here so Serena caught up to them with curious eyes. “So what’s got your feathers all ruffled to be in such a hurry?”
