A teaser from chapter two...

[itsune9tl]

As Jadeite's face went down, my knee came up, and something that 
didn't belong to me made a nasty crunching sound.  "How's *that* 
for ineffective, asshole?" I snarled as he cried out and fell to 
the gravel surface of the roof.  I dropped into a ready stance as 
he got to his hands and knees, then wiped one of his fancy white 
gloves across his face.  It came back smeared with blood.

"Who... dares...?" he growled around the pain.

I leaned in toward him, careful to stay out of arm's reach and
with my mage senses wide open in case he tried something magical.
"I'm the Loon," I sing-songed at him, "Ready for fun!  I wear a 
smile!"  My voice dropped to a slow rasp.  "Everybody run."

I'd say I was sorry, but I'm not.
