After learning the truth about Sunri, Tae was annoyed by how stubborn the two could be. It was clear that they both cared for each other, but neither one of them wanted to make the first steps to amends their broken relationship. Taeyeon was sure she could figure out a strategy to bring the couple together again, but that would have to wait. It took Tiffany quite a while to explain what had happened and as a result, Taeyeon was starving.

 

Shinju had recently found an office job, so most days he would be gone until 5 pm. Taeyeon knew how to cook for herself, but today she felt like exploring the city. Since she had arrived she’s been bombarded with multiple dilemmas: first love, best friend’s first love, and deadly magical cultists. Because of all that, she hasn’t had a chance to really explore this concrete jungle so what better way to spend the last day of her weekend then to wander the New York streets. Before she left the apartment, she quickly conjured a bow and arrow once more. The bright beams burst from her stone forming a vibrant orange bow. She was about to form a quiver when she realized she wouldn’t need one. Instead, she held the bow up, pulled on the bow string and as she did so, an arrow had formed. “That is so much easier than drawing from a quiver.” She smiled. Taeyeon released the arrow and pierced a hole straight through their wear out couch. “He won’t even notice, that couch already has a ton of holes.”

 

 Even on a Sunday, the streets were crowded with people in suits. Taeyeon also noticed that most people who had these suits also had a coffee in hand. “Coffee seems like a must here. Where should I buy some? Starbucks? Nah, way too expensive right now. I’ll just find a little café and get a black coffee.” She thought. She came across a variety of cafes, but they were still quite out of her price range since she had yet to find a job. “Yah, I can’t afford this stuff. I need to save my money for my date with Fany this Friday.” So there was only one solution, to McDonald’s! A part of Taeyeon hoped to see Tiff in there like usual, but the other part dreaded it. All she had on was a wrinkled, grayed, white hoodie and worn out black track pants. If Tiff were to see her in this state, she wouldn’t even be able to keep eye contact from the embarrassment.

 

Luckily though Tiff was nowhere to be found, it’s not like she lives there. Taeyeon simply bought her coffee and a breakfast bagel from the all-day breakfast menu. She was definitely satisfied with her choices, she fit the crowd now. Well, if they were wearing worn-out clothes that is. She finished up her delicious bagel and was about to make her way home when she heard a loud commotion occurring from a convenience store up ahead. She dashed quickly to investigate what was going on. Taeyeon made her wait to the window of the convenient store but ducked down to make sure no danger from the inside would notice her. “EMPTY THE REGISTER MAN! Give us all you got.” Demanded one of the masked men.

“Okay, okay just give me a second.” Said the employee, trying to stay as calm as possible.

“Don’t try to play anything okay old man? Or I’ll send two shells right into your brain.”

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you…” Taeyeon had entered the store with her hoodie up and a black bandana fashioned from a ripped section of her t-shirt to conceal her face.

“And what’ll you do if I don’t little lady?” the robber turned to her pointing the gun towards her.

“I’ll make this simple for you three, at the count of five, all three of you will leave this store and never come back. If you’re still here by the count of five, then be ready to get wrecked by a little girl.” The robbers simply laughed in return, but Taeyeon was not messing around. “Five.”

“Four.”

“You don’t scare us , just run along before I blast you too.”

“Three.”

“I’m warning you, I’ll blast you straight in the stomach and there’s no surviving that lady!!”

“Two.”

“You’re one crazy .” He held up his shotgun ready to fire.

“One.” And on the count of one he sent a barrage of pellets her way, but Taeyeon’s reflexes were simply too fast. A bright orange shield emerged before her, vaporizing the pellets like flies on a bug zapper.

“WHAT THE !!” The armed man screamed. Another one of the robbers charged at Tae with a wooden baseball bat. She swiftly ducked under his swing and he was left open for a counter strike. She quickly formed a boxing glove around her left arm, to make sure she wouldn’t kill the man with a stab. She jabbed him right in the stomach, sending
