{Inside The Projection}
It wasn't long before the two brothers were directly beneath the moonlight, back on public roads.
They had remained quiet till then, and only when Malik stepped out onto a more populated street did Sinbad break the silence once more:
"What is it that you plan to do?"
"...Hm."
Sinbad hooted low.
"You're doing that... thing again."
Malik gestured at the statue of a lion in the distance.
Pink eyes followed and slowly widened.
"Oh... I understand."
They were going to begin their act now.
Malik stepped forward, and then—
Whoosh!
BOOM!
The statue shattered.
Flames erupted around it, scaring the city's people away, screaming.
The two didn't hear any of that, however, as they were already gone.
At the same time, Faraja, guards, and soldiers rushed to the scene, but fortunately for them, there was no one for them to fight.
Malik appeared on a distant street, the ground splitting at his feet as he walked.
