Graceful as a Butterfly, Deadlier than a Hornet
The woman, a former summoner of the League, took time off of her travels to enjoy the night time of Piltover. She got dressed up for it in a suit but she still kept on her summoner's jacket as usual. She ordered herself a cosmopolitan and took it outside on the balcony to enjoy the beautiful nightscape of the city state.
...
That was until a voice interrupted her train of thought.
"Never seen your kind around here before, my dear."
The woman slowly turned around to find a tall man in a white mask, wearing what she knew was the colors of Demacian nobility, but then her eyes went straight towards the gun at his side. She then noticed the metalic limbs of his arm and legs. Her stormy blue eyes moved back up to his red one.
"Whaddya got t'wards me?" she asked.", sipping her drink. The masked man took a few steps forward and replied, "Oh, nothing at all. Just I've never seen such a beautiful woman as you are, my dear." She had no idea whether to be creeped out or take the compliment. "Um... Th- Thank ye...," she replied before turning away from him.
She could then feel him get closer and closer just from hearing his footsteps. "I apologize for such words. Must be difficult to accept a compliment from artist as myself," the masked man said. She shook her head. "Nah, it ain't tha'. I've heard tha' from worse people than you," she replied, sipping more of her drink. The man nodded slowly. "I see."
He paused.
"Call me Khada, dear," he inquired. The woman paused as well before replying, "Zoey."
"Zoey..." He nodded slowly in approval. "How lovely~." She pursed her lips and muttered, "Yeah, thanks."
She then felt his hand on her shoulder and she stiffened a bit. "Not only do I see such beauty in you, I do see something else in you," he suddenly said. "Wh... Wha's tha'...?" she asked.
His hand slowy went for his gun Whisper and took a bullet before releasing a white essence from it. "Do you know the difference between a hornet and a butterfly?" Jhin asked. Zoey hesitantly shook her head. "A hornet is a stubborn, deadly insect that cannot keep itself in-line. A butterfly, however, is one of the most graceful and delicate creatures this world has to offer."
She turned her head slightly to him as he put the white and glowing butterfly easence in front of her. "That is what you are, my dear. Graceful as a butterfly, yet deadlier than a hornet."
The young woman looked down at the butterfly as Jhin let the woman take it in her hands before he released her. "How do ye kno-"
He was already gone by the time she turned around to face him. She looked around the bar to see if he had went back in but, again, didn't see him there. Zoey looked back down at the butterfly before it faded away. She looked up.
Wondering who... Or what that Khada Jhin man is.
