Chapter 1: New Arrival
"YES! YES! I'M BACK! I'M BACK IN JAPAN!"
People took notice while some looked alarmed when little blond-haired girl in some sort of flight suit started shouting like someone deranged and had the expression to match it. What was more alarming though was that the fact that said girl carried a submachinegun. Whether it's real or not carrying such a thing in public is highly illegal in present day Japan and would get someone in big trouble.
"Huh? Wait a minute." The little girl looked at her hand and then examined herself all over. "I'm still a little girl. Everything that I am, everything that I have…I'm still Tanya Degurechaff." The realization made her want to scream. "Curse you Being X!" After her awkward outburst she then took notice of the people ogling at her, giving her queer stares while some were taking pictures of her with their cellphones. She could discern some of their murmurs.
"Who is this little foreigner?"
"Are they shooting a movie here?"
"Somebody, call the police."
"Isn't that Tanya from Youjo Senki?"
"Idiot it's probably somebody cosplaying her."
Damn it! I'm standing out here. I have to find somewhere to lay low and figure out what's going on.
To the amazement of the crowd the little girl suddenly took flight and flew off high overhead, toward the tallest of buildings. Among the crowd were two individuals who took extreme interest over the incident: a student who wore glasses and tall red-haired girl who accompanied him.
"Souta, call the others, especially Meteora. I'll go on ahead and follow that girl."
"Wait Selesia, that's took risky. Let's just wait for the others, please." The boy with the glasses grabs the arm of the redhead, stopping her.
"I understand your concern. But if I don't get to her first the other group would probably will. You know that."
"But-"
"Also, there's the matter that she might cause trouble out of the confusion she might be feeling. You don't want that do you?"
The boy could not say anything to dissuade the redhead and he knows she's right. But he couldn't stop worrying about her welfare especially with the forces they are facing.
The redhead smiled at him. "Don't worry. We'll keep in touch with our phones." She brought out her device and gave him a reassuring wave with it.
He let go of her. "Please be careful, Selesia."
"I will."
She then left him among the dispersing crowd, heading where she won't be seen and take flight, to pursue the flying little girl. It was then that Souta overhead a couple of passing youths audibly discussing the fiasco early.
"To see that Tanya knockoff flying like the character from the anime. It was so…freaking awesome!"
"Agreed. But it just seems strange they'd do a promotional stunt on Youjo Senki at this point in time when the series is nearing its end."
"Youjo Senki…" Souta brought out his phone. But instead making the call to his friends as Selesia told him to do; he instead searched through the internet for the term: Youjo Senki. His eyes widen a bit after reading through the info he saw. He looked at the general direction where Selesia headed. Souta couldn't shake the bad feeling he was sensing from all of this.
Tanya sat by the rooftop of some high-rise, catching her breath and calming herself. Her mind was going over what happened up to this point. "This is definitely Japan. But I how did I get here…"
She recalled her unit, the 203rd mage battalion which came from a successful mission that would determine the fate of the war between the Empire and the Republic. They were sent flying out to intercept suspected enemy forces on their route back home when they met them, a mage battalion from the Allied Kingdoms. Tanya's group was only eleven in number, a far outcry against a battalion-sized force. They had little choice that time. It was either die fleeing or die fighting. Of course she chose the latter and told this to her men and they followed, but at great cost. One by one her men fell to the enemy's assault but not before they greatly thinned their numbers in response, forcing the Kingdom mages to pull back and regroup. Just when thought they'd get a breather then appeared the enemy's wild card: a mage which Tanya thought to have died by her hand comes back from the dead and decides to settle the score with her once and for all.
"He caught me. It was Being X. The bastard. I remember an explosion. I definitely thought I died…But I came to, and I'm right here, in Japan. How did this all happen?"
"Perhaps I can help you answer that."
Tanya quickly rose up and pointed her submachinegun at the source of the voice. She saw a pretty red-haired girl, floating, coming to land on the rooftop of where she stood. The girl in question wore casual clothing, typical of this era. She did not appear to be wearing anything that would be identified as a flight suit that allowed flight from where she recently came from and yet she was flying, which in Tanya's eyes is mighty suspicious.
"Being…X?" she said with a scowl, her finger already touching the trigger of her weapon.
The redhead shook her head while smiling at her, as well as raising both her arms in a sign that she meant no harm. "No. I'm not who you think I am. I'm Selesia Yupitiria. And like you, I'm a stranger in this world."
"What the hell are you taking about? Me and you, strangers of this world? I used to live here but now I'm back. The only stranger here is you, Being X."
Selesia felt awkward at how she was received but decided to push on. "I told you! I'm not this…Being X you refer me to. I would like you to trust me-"
"Yeah right. Like I would." Tanya cut her off, training her weapon at the redhead still. "Tell me Being X, have you grown tired of my winning streak back in that god awful world you sent me to? Does this mean I win? That I beat you!" She wickedly grinned at this.
Selesia was starting to get flustered. "You don't understand. You are…a creation, a character from a story made by a creator…" How she wished Meteora was here. The girl from Avalken of Reminisce would have been better at explaining these kinds of things.
The gun wielding little blonde girl was becoming annoyed by the nonsense being sputtered by this weird young woman that she snapped at her. "Shut up! I've had it with you. Oh, and while you're at it, change me back to my original self. Otherwise just leave me alone!"
"Perhaps you should listen to the little lady, and leave her to my care?"
Both Tanya and Selesia turned at the direction of the newcomer: a brown bearded middle-aged man, with glasses and dark trench coat, floating high over the two girls.
"Or better yet, why not the both you come along with me and meet our illustrious military uniform princess."
