Oceanlight Storm and Andi Newleaf becoming a team...

Ocean sighs as a mint-furred cat wearing a dark green cloak sidles up to her.
"Why, hello there. I don't suppose you're Oceanlight?" the other cat asks, a smirk forming.
"Yeah, what's it to you?" Ocean's eyes narrow.
"Oh, I'm amazed to meet you! I've never heard of someone whose feats are equal to my own!" he responds, a grin lighting up his face. Ocean is not amused.
"Who are you?" she demands.
The other cat swipes his inky hair behind his ears. "Oh, just a person interested in helping you."
"Oh?" Ocean watches the stranger closely. She's heard of a similar looking cat only in Legends that tell of his defiance against the Lost Foxes and of his cunning. Andi Newleaf.
"Now see, I have some powerful magics-being the one and only Andi the con artist- even magics some from my ally who has abilities never seen before." He smirks when Ocean lets out a quiet gasp.
"Heard of me, huh? I guess I am quite famous..."
Ocean gets control of herself, still a little amazed, and VERY afraid. That is one dangerous cat... she thinks.
"There's just one piece missing, the Water Storm abilities. Figured you'd be interested since word on the street is that you have a powerful passion for defeating the Lost Foxes. Easy deal. I help you, you help me." Andi swishes his tail as Ocean considers it.
"Done and done," she says decisively. "Now let's see what two of the greatest con artists on this planet can do..."
................... Three years later
......................After Ocean's supposed death...
Ocean spots the familiar mint-furred form sitting at the edge of a cliff. She gracefully bounds to him, making no sound at all.
"Hey, Andi," she whispers. Andi jumps up to his paws quickly into a defensive position before gasping and letting down his guard.
"Ocean... Is it you? I heard that you died..." he murmurs with disbelief in his voice.
"Nah, that was just a rumor I started to cover my tracks."
"So.. your sister?"
Ocean sighs. "She believes I'm gone. It's for the best."
"Wow, you impress me some days. Convincing everyone that you are dead, even your sister, that's a difficult task!"
"Well, not everyone can be good at doing the magic con stuff. Even other Foxes..."
"Hey! Rude! I do perfectly fine, thanks very much."
"Just kidding, you do fine. So. Have you heard from our contacts?"
Andi sighs. "No, I haven't heard from anyone but Akita for months, and even her I haven't heard from for weeks."
"Welp. Now we have our next quest:Find our allies. You ready, my friend?" Ocean flicks her tail.
"Ready to go on another quest with you? When am I not??" Andi smirks mischievously, and Ocean grins back. "Let's go!"
