ooc: I'm actually a veteran wolf roleplayer, and I've really been wanting to rp MKR for a while. I may have a different roleplaying style than everyone else, so please bear with me.

Also, I'm not too sure of the rules here; so if you find an error, please correct me.

(based on an idea for a fanfiction I have ;P)


Tall gray buildings seemed to ascend forever to the heavens in the gray city that was Tokyo. The few trees that were there did little to help from receiving the constant exposure to the strong UV rays; which seemed to come in violent waves of heat, despite the fact that it was morning; slowing everyone down considerably.

Hikaru Shidou walked slowly towards her school; a grim look on her face as she remembered once again her recent test score that she had received the other day.

"59%..."

She had never received such an incredibly low mark, and it wasn't like she got a hundred percent on everything; but she always was a hard-working student. Hikaru didn't get why her mark had dropped so bad. Of course; there was the fact that her second great mission in Cephiro made her forget everything she had studied. This was a problem.

As she walked slowly towards the middle school; her negative thoughts swirling through her mind, a familiar warning chill suddenly raced throughout Hikaru's body. Without thinking, her body jumped high in the air, did a forward flip, then landed gracefully a few meters forward on the pavement; a cloud of dust and pebbles accompanying a sliding sound of Hikaru skidding to a stop. Eyes wide with adrenaline and surprise, she looked at disbelief at what was in front of her.

A great monster, in the flesh, was standing before her; a growl being emitted from deep in it's stomach.

As Hikaru felt herself being transported on to the stretcher, a wave of relief washed over her. It could best be described as being able to get into bed after a long day. Her eyes slowly closed, and her consciousness slipped for the third time that day.

She was walking. Walking ever so slowly. Her bare feet sank into the snow with each painful step. She had nothing but her school uniform and a scarf on. The wind and snow whirled around her in chaos, and her hands were brought to her brow. The howling blizzard stung her eyes as she squinted to look out to her destination.

The great volcano stood in it's grandeur before her; so close, yet somehow so far. Perhaps she would never reach it...

Oh, but she will. Her doubts were erased, and her cold feet started moving once again. Her heart burned with the flames to keep her going. But was the fire big? Sometimes, the heart is not enough...

Then I shall aid thee, O seeker of Fire.

Hikaru closed her eyes as she felt an overwhelming amount of fire around her. The warmth encouraged her, pushed her forward. She started running, her sword finally in her hand.

Hikaru's left hand slowly began to illuminate, though the medical personnel did not acknowledge this. Hikaru's glove appeared in a translucent, almost imaginary form; as the Magic Knight's hand could still be seen through the embroidered fabric. The red orb glowed familiarly, and a light in the form of a weapon was projected. The broad-sword had been recovered; though, unlike Umi's rapier, it could not be seen by anyone other than the ones of Cephiro.

Still in her unconscious state, Hikaru nevertheless grasped the divine weapon of Escudo. As it was felt in her hands, the Magic Knight seemed to regain a little more colour in her skin; her glove disappearing, leaving only the sword in this world. It was then that a snake-like fire seemed to spurt from the handle, spiraling around the weapon till it's tip; where a figure seemed to be created through the fire. It seemed to only be a large bundle of pure fire...until it shaped to become a bright outline, and then the truth was revealed.
For right there, staring directly at Hikaru, was the great Mashin of Fire. Like the previous monsters, he was ignored by the ambulance workers.

Turning his calm, pupil-less red eyes towards Umi; the awe-rendering Guardian spoke in his magnificence and grandeur to the Water Knight, his deep voice tangled with a sense of deep concern.

"Hikaru...is injured."he said, his statement more of an inquiry than anything else. His fiery mane crackled and spurted ember, but if one was to touch it; they would only meet air. For there was also a sense of transparency with Rayearth; he was there, but not there.


ooc: I wonder if Umi has ever seen Rayearth's beast form before?
