Leon looked at the stairwell that had been crisscrossed with ropes in random and irritating ways. the ropes weren't the trap however but rather the support for it , the actual trap was the vines that grew along and between the ropes that had inch long thorns with an oily exterior. it was clear to leon that percy had modified the vines to have these thorns with his semblance. leon wasn't fooled by the seemingly easy to overcome trap however and didn't move to cut any of it down. 'if i had to guess the vines were modified to shoot their thorns if agitated.' he thought while examining them closely.

It was well hidden but at the base of the thorns there were small orbs that leon assumed launched the thorns. for most people this trap would stop them in their tracks but leon had already figured out the fatal flaw in it. unless percy was willing to exhaust himself by manually controlling these vines he had likely set them to go off at any sign of tampering. this was both a strength and a weakness as if someone went to cut them with a blade serious injuries await them , but on the same hand a single well placed bullet may detonate the whole set up prematurely.

The pidgy had undoubtedly gone to the top of the tower to wait for leon along with percy so when leon simply backtracked out of the doorway he wasn't attacked. a quick pull and twist of his wrist caused leons weapon to change into it's pure rifle state much to the people watching's confusion. unless the person filming the lesson wanted to give themselves up they simply couldn't follow leon into the tower with a camera and as a result no one knew what obstacles leon had encountered.

All the people watching knew was that leon had entered the building for a brief moment before backing out and morphing his weapon into a rifle state. the next thing they saw was leon leaning himself against the outside wall and firing his rifle into the building. those watching were confused about this set of actions until the sound of crackling came from the tower and a burst of nail-like thorns were blasted out the open doorway. at that point leons action were understood as him safely disabling the rather cruel trap in the tower.

Leon ducked into the tower immediately after the thorns passed by and dashed towards the vines that were glowing as percy tried to recover the trap from up above. leon was having none of that however as he hit the ropes and vines at the bottom of the stairs with a burst of hell fire. percy frowned as he felt the plants at the bottom of the stairs vanish along with the wave of hot air that rose to him in the tower. percy knew that the plants at the bottom of the stars were the most important for his trap but now that they were gone leon arriving was only a matter of time.

A few minutes passed and percy had a confused expression at why he hadn't heard or felt the rest of the plants go off for this entire time. this lasted until he suddenly found himself with a scythe blade pressed against his throat from behind. the truth was that leon never intended to take the stairway to reach percy , but rather was going to fly up to the window that the pidgy went to. setting off and destroying the vines at the bottom of the stairs was to serve as a misdirection as he silently rose up and ambushed percy from behind.

"It's funny how easily people seem to forget that i have working wings." leon said with a chuckle from behind percy. the boys eyes widen in understanding "you were giving me a false impression of how you would act from the beginning." he said with a sigh. leon removed his blade from percy's throat "no need to feel down against most people your trap would have been a pain to deal with , it was quite good." leon said with a smile.
