Pham Thi Anh Sang (Himiko)

Celestial Guardian Himiko ran towards the scene of a minor mugging, having heard a man cry out moments before a ping went out on her evildoer senses. She rushed towards the sensation, pausing briefly as she felt a different presence nearby. It took her off-guard, a feeling that this person was neither evil nor an abomination. No, they were something else. Perhaps. Another guardian? It so distracted her that she lost focus for a moment too long, losing track of the person she had been trying to track.

Kasper didn't really want to be out here. At all. But he thought he'd better get better with this Guardian form so if he actually did get marked for not purging he might have a fighting chance. And maybe, maybe he could get away with bopping these "bad guys" over the head or getting them to change their ways somehow.

So he'd been wandering the streets, mostly climbing on things or shooting cinnamon then running. Until he felt his Guardian Sense kick in. He hesitated for a moment. He wasn't marked yet - he should be safe, right? But he needed to practice fleeing for when he wasn't.

Kasper turned and ran, trying to find a good place to lose this other guardian.

Himiko pouted. She hadn't even gotten her evildoer and the other guardian was already running away from her! Based off of her senses anyways. Fine, but if she wasn't going to fight evil today, she was at least going to meet another person like herself.

Quickly, she followed the other guardian's trail, trying to find a place to essentially box them in. She hadn't been to this part of the city that much so it was a bit of a struggle to strategically plan her movements. Not that she was really one for strategy at all usually anyways.

Whoever this Guardian was, they seemed to be trying to catch him. Surely if they wanted him out of their territory, they would have let him run. Maybe they wanted to talk to him. Maybe they were as sick as he was about this. Or wanted a glimpse of him. Or... He didn't really know.

Either way, Kasper stopped running. It was probably another kid, and he was kinda used to a bit of bullying. They other Gurdians wouldn't really be killing each other already - they were good kids. Running had been dumb.

He turned and called out, even though they could sense each other, "Hey! I'm over here!"

That was strange. All of a sudden, she heard somebody screaming at her, from the same direction as the other guardian she sensed. They had changed their mind, apparently, and Himiko was delighted. Well, assuming that they didn't want to fight or anything but that couldn't possibly be fair. They hadn't even been guardians for more than a week! There shouldn't have been any purges going on yet.

She ran around the corner until she found the person in question. "Hey! You're the one I'm sensing, right? Let's be friends so that we don't have to kill each other later!" Even now, the idea of death was quite foreign to her. Maybe it was because she had accepted on some level that death was a strange, wondrous thing. That came in the form of your former best friend turning into a rampaging T-rex and maiming one of your cousins for life. Yes, Himiko's grasp of death was a bit... Out there.

"I don't want to kill anyone!" He was a little surprised at first. She looked younger than him - why would she be so cheerful about the prospect of murder? "But yes I guess we can be friends. New friends are nice.... Should I even give you my name if you won't recognize me when I change back?"

Kasper sighed, this was all so confusing. "I don't know what to do. I didn't think Sailor Moon was, y'know, real. Or dangerous."

She gasped with indignity. "No! You can't just give away your regular name like that!" Himiko said, completely horrified by the lack of theatrics. "You have to make one up for yourself while you're like this! Like me! I'm Himiko, nice to meet you!"

"But yeah, I didn't think that the real world actually worked like Sailor Moon," she said excitedly. "I was just doing my homework and then bam! Here I am!" Granted, considering that the existence of powers was a thing, she should have expected something like this to come up eventually. Her very family was super big on magic.

Kasper laughed a bit. "Yeah, I obviously wasn't thinking. I don't know what mine is yet, but it'll be a really good one. Hey, maybe if were intimidating enough the evildoers will be nicer or or... I don't know"

"I guess I'll tell you if I see you again. So it was random for you too? How did you end up here? My mom had a letter cause I guess she's not human, which is weird. My step-mom. I think I'd probably know if my bio mom wasn't human." Now that the initial nervousness was wearing off, Kasper was actually pretty excited to meet another Guardian. Maybe they could all band up together, then it wouldn't matter if they got marked.

She looked around but there didn't seem to be anybody else nearby. They were in a pretty secluded alleyway and all the traffic was passing in front of it. Nobody gave them another look; they were just normal on the island. Strange, but normal nonetheless.

"Oh, my family is super magic," Himiko said matter-of-factly. "It goes back all the way as far as we can tell. I've got some pretty cool powers when I'm normal, too!" She tilted her head curiously. "But so, like. Are you just normal normal when you're not like this, then?"

"Oh wow! That's super cool. So you were already a magical girl when the uh whatever it was, weird stuff happened? Or like a witch or something? Wait - are you one of the people that just grew up here? With all the like dragons and everything?"

He paused for a breath, and to give Himiko a chance to actually answer any of his questions. "Yeah. I'm just a regular human. It's kinda strange at school with everyone having superpowers and stuff. I just tell them I came with my step mom. "
