The snow was falling softly around Mystique, each flake glistening like tiny shards of glass in the pale moonlight. She stood amidst the pristine white landscape, her blue stark against the snowy backdrop. The icy air nipped at her, causing a shiver to run down her spine. She breathed deeply, the cold biting into her lungs with every inhale.

Suddenly, Mystique felt a familiar, irritating tickle at the back of her nose. Her breath hitched involuntarily. "Hah... hah..." Each exhale was visible in the frigid air, a plume of white vapor that quickly dissipated. She closed her eyes, the sensation growing stronger. "Hahh... hahhhh..." Her breath quickened, coming in short, sharp gasps. Her nostrils flared, and her body tensed as she tried to fight the inevitable sneeze.

Mystique’s normally calm and composed demeanor was briefly shattered as she succumbed to the sensation. "Hahhh... haaahhh... HAAH-CHOO!" The sneeze erupted from her, powerful and sudden, echoing through the still night. She sniffled slightly, feeling the tickle subside, and opened her eyes.

The snowflakes continued their gentle descent, seemingly unfazed by the interruption. Mystique wiped her nose delicately with the back of her hand, her breath now coming in steady, controlled puffs. She glanced around, ensuring no one had seen her moment of vulnerability before resuming her silent, stealthy march through the snow-covered terrain.
