Kai Syaoran appeared directly in the palace of the Shadow Queen. The powerful demonic beast was in her true form. She was majestic and powerful. She looked at him and waited for him to speak his peace. When Kai Syaoran remained silent, the queen had no choice but to speak up.
"I am the Shadow Queen, leader of the Shadow Leopards and all other beasts that roam these lands. Who are you?"
"I am the Continuum Beast, the peak for all beasts, men, gods, devils, and demons alike." The moment he said these words, the Shadow Queen felt as though she was a small cat standing before a merciless beast from a time before order filled the world. She could not breathe, and thinking was a luxury. She could feel his power filling all things and all beings. She understood that the thing before her was even more dreadful than she had anticipated. Just as suddenly as this overwhelming power had appeared, it disappeared, and all that was left in its place was the "ordinary" looking wolf.
