Miette was just about ready to collapse from exhaustion when the principal called off the fight. Too weak to stand, she fell to her knees and looked at her burnt hands, letting out an exasperated sigh. She knew she was never going to hear the end of it when she got home.

She slowly got back up, but was pushed back down by Jonathon. "Some Pride magic you are. Just wait until your parents find out you fought against the rest of your kind, Lady Mignonette." He shoved her again, knocking her to the floor.

Then, something strange happened. Miette's eyes began to glow a dark blue and she shot back up to her feet, grasping Jonathon by the front of his shirt as she hissed, "Back off, pretty boy." She dropped him, and her eyes became their normal color.
