With the sun bright in the sky and a pleasant breeze washing over West City, today was a great day for outdoor activities! As such, many inhabitants of the technologically advanced capitol brought along their friends and loved ones to Sparking World. Indeed, on this pleasant autumnal day, the amusement park was overbrimming with the comings and goings of guests of all ages.
It is during such peak periods that the chattering maelstrom of the everchanging crowd managed to rival the delighted screams coming from the umpteenth roller-coasters. From the souvenir shops to the fast food joints, no corners of the theme park were spared from the tidal wave of customers - lineups sprawling as far as the eyes could see acted as a testimony of the staff's struggle.
If this wasn't enough for the employees of Sparking World already, one particularly recalcitrant goober proved to be a lot on their plate; zooming around with the adorable pitty-patter of digitigrade paw pads, an uninvited white fox with a distinctive red-tipped tail and ears was given chase by a portly employee who worked at the cotton candy stand. The poor Earthling teenager had been toiling hard all morning until he made the fatal mistake of leaving his stand unattended for a bathroom break. When he came back, he saw with horror how a feral fox was literally neck-deep into the floss machine. After getting screamed at by the diligent employee, the interloper ran away with a utterly massive cloud of pink sweetness tucked between his fangies.
"NYEHEHEHEHEHE!" With the unintelligible gekkering-speech of his non-anthropomorphic form, Xiaolan wove his escape between the legs of a mosh pit of attendees who were casually making their way about. Thanks to his itty-bitty size, the vulpine was putting some distance between himself and the Earthling employee trying his best to tumble through the crowd.
"SOMEONE, APPREHEND THIS CRIMINAL!" The chubby Earthling yelled with a fist clenched high above his head, getting the attention of a few customers and staff members. Children tugged with excitement at their parent's sleeves, pointing at the silly white fox with a comically large piece of cotton candy while adults who noticed were either giggling or gasping at the scene. Some pulled their cellphones out, recording the epic chase whose proportions were only amplified by reinforcement staff members who left their stands vacant to assist their coworker.
Alas, despite the best efforts of the part-time employees of Sparking World, there was no stopping this ostensibly innocuous-looking fox. Each time someone was about to catch the goober, the fox somehow found a way to go even faster to veer unpredictably out of the way like a blur or perform acrobatic feats beyond the realm of his species' biological limitations.
Now jumping from one bamboozled customer's head to another, Xiaolan was starting to chart out an escape route in his head: With his prize in mouth, he would outwit his pursuers on the ferris wheel where he could shapeshift away from prying eyes into something else before flying away! It was still a long way to go seeing how the ride was at the other end of the park, but the fox didn't mind taking his time with a few twists and turns if it meant no one ended up getting hurt by his little prank~
Would anyone amongst the crowd rise to apprehend this scurrying master of tomfoolery or would Xiaolan get to have it his way?

PL: 52,000 (Xiaolan is in his Base form and under the Anti Sense trait; his Ki signature is null and void!)
Xiaolan uses his Foxy Changeling UT to maintain the guise of a small feral fox counterpart of himself! The implications of this are exceptionally grim
UT used: Foxy Changeling Xiaolan perfected the ancient kitsune art of morphing his body. Provided he has absorbed their soul via his "Monstrous Kitsune Nature" Utility technique, Xiaolan can assume someone else’s appearance. This doesn’t give him any of their mechanical effects, such as but not limited to techniques and traits. While unable to replicate their Ki signature, Xiaolan can perfectly mimic their voice due to reconfiguring his vocal cords in the metamorphosis process. Xiaolan also has a pool of "past hit NPCs" he can turn into - mostly petty Earthling criminals of no renown.
Assuming the appearance of a PC/NPC belonging to someone else requires OOC consent.
KP: 6/6 - MP: 0/6 - HP: 000/250
Traits: Antisense's Free Escape Attempt [1/1], Crane School Secrets [1/1], Vampiric [1/1]
