25 Unicorn Street into the Streets, Thursday Early Morning

[on_her_korhal]

It wasn't that Sarah Kerrigan wasn't used to waking up early, because she was.

It was waking up early to the sound of an alarm ticking away that put a new spin on things. She rushed out of bed, running into the nfb command room, checking sensors and screens.

The opportunity was there.

Within a few moments, she had her suit on and was fully armed, rushing out the door and into the streets.

"Sheriff, I really don't have the time," Kerrigan responded, "Got an urgent call home."

Well, it depended on your definition of call, really. She did not stop.

Those weren't exactly the words to make him turn around. "What's going on? Need a hand?"

"Nothing for you to worry about."

She paused, clapping open a panel on her suit. ETA... crap. Where was it? "Damn Protoss," she muttered under her breath.

He raised an eyebrow at the name, not as familiar as the Zerg. "There's a lot of things I supposedly shouldn't worry about and I still do," he said softly, studying her and trying to figure out the depth of the situation.

"Yeah, yeah," she responded, but she wasn't paying much attention to him anymore. Instead, her senses were going on the fritz; she stared up into the sky. Right place, right time--

He might not know any psionics, but his senses were still tingling as he followed her gaze. "Kerrigan?"

And the sky broke open to brilliant blue. "Protoss alright," Kerrigan replied, alarmed--

Then the energy ripped through them, leaving no trace of either human in its wake.
