"One to be born from a Dragon, hoisting the Light..."
--Mystian Legand (Final Fantasy 2)
Ryuuko sat an out-of-the-way bar table in a pub near the Tokyo Bay. She seemed to be occupied by something. Too occupied, in fact, to notice a young man, about a sit down beside her. She plays with the rim of her cider mug as she begins to sob.
"Why'd it have to be me? Why'd I have to go look for the other senshi?!?! and why was I torn from the only people that I know to be on some back water planet..." The man rolled his eyes.
"What a cry baby..." He thought. "She's worse then Odango Atama 1 ?
"Hey, Listen...", the man said. "What's your name and where're you from?" A little faery floats towards them and lands on Ryuuko's shoulder.
"Hi, Ryuuk. Who's your boy-friend, huh?" The faery asked cheerfully.
"He's not my boy friend...", She grummbled, her face could be barely seen below her mug. She straightens up. "Anyway...Name's Ryuuko. That's Crys over there. and both of us are from Drecia." Crys waves at the man and giggles. Ryuuko glares at her. She wipes her mouth with the back of her hand.
"Well, we told you who we are..."
"Mamoru...Mamoru Chiba." He holds out his hand. Ryuuko looks at it suspiciously. "Man, you are worse than Odango Brains..." Ryuuko cocks her head.
"You look so familar...", Mamoru looks at her in the same way.
"She's giving off a lot of mixxed energies here. Is she the one?" He thought to himself.
"Why don't you tell me about yourself..." Crystal starts to whissle.
"Yeah, Ryuuko, why don't you tell him more about your self", Ryuuko grapped Crystal.
"Listen, There's no way that a guy like him would want to even consider going out with a fatso like me...!" She said, almost on the verge of hissing.
"Okay! Okay! Sorry...!", Crys wasn't surprized at Ryuuko's actions though. She does this all the time.
"I'm already married...", Mamoru said. Ryuuko shot Crystal a See-I-Told-You-So look. Crys pulls her eye lid down and does a raspberry. Ryuuko graps for the nearest newpaper and starts to roll it up.
"THPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPT!", She floats out of the way of Ryuuko's newspaper.
"Anywhy...Let me tell you a little about Drecia...You've since swamplands, right?" Mamoru nods.
"Hooo-kay...How about Anchient Greecian buildings, and castles found in Arthurian Legands?" He nods at all of them. "Well, put all of those together and you've got Drecia." Crys starts to tear up.
"Or at least Drecia as it was in the past..." She flies away for a while.
"Well, It all starts one thousand and five years ago on Drecia. I was a promising young Dragon Knight..." Crys doubles over in laughter.
"Promising...Yeah right!", Ryuuko ignores the comment.
"At that time, I was known as Kirin, the daughter of Lady Apsu, the court's main Sorceress, and Lord Leviathan, commander of the Drdcian tides. I studied Ryuudo2 for a time. When I was choosen to marry the prince of Drecia, Prince Morpheous. I didn't want to for two reasons: I didn't like him and I didn't feel like settling down when I could be kicking some major butt.", She ticked off the reasons on her hands. "That really got the the Queen going." She chuckles to herself. A radio palys in the background
"Hi, all of you listeners out there! Welcome to Project D-Ko! This is your annoucer, Free Bird!", The DJ said. Ryuuko stopped dead in her tracks.
"That voice...." She whips around to Crys. "Crys, did that voice have a twittering sound to it?" Mamoru looked at both of them as if they were nuts. Crys gasped.
"That sounds just like...", They turn to each other...
"ESUNA!!!!!!!", They said in unison. Ryuuko graps Mamoru's arm
"C'Mon! We're going to the city!"
