"It is time, my child, it is time to fulfill your destiny!"
They weren't on their beds anymore, nor in the familiarity of their comfy homes. Together, they arrived inside a mysterious cavern; all around them were dozens of crystals, glinting magically and illuminating the room. A light breeze could be felt on their skin, a smell of the mineral aroma from all the crystalline structures filling their noses. Colors seemed to be dancing everywhere around them, almost overwhelming, even as the crystals began to stop glowing.
Quickly, they both realized the clothing that adorns them was no longer their pyjamas, but rather the lightweight fuku meant for fighting against evil forces. Despite not having this uniform for long, it felt like a second skin to both of them.
As they both walked inside this strange room, they quickly discovered they weren't alone.
"Who are you?"
The light-themed Senshi spoke first.
They wore a soft grey, almost white skirt with a matching bow, and lots of light-blue ribbons on their forearms and their boots. Their gems were a soft sky blue as well, and a trained eye would have recognized Pectolite as their crystal. On their face was wary expression, framed delicately by light blond locks of hair.
The other one seemed surprised for a few seconds.
Her own fuku was darker, as her bow, skirt, and boots were in a slightly desaturated deep blue that could remind one of the shell of a scarab. Her secondary color was a more vibrant color, slightly shifting between blue and green depending on the angle. The gems adorning her shared this hue, and one would have identified them as Teal Sapphires.
She finally managed to answer. "Hello, my name is Nubia! What's yours?"
"Seika."
The light-themed Senshi, Seika, seemed to be suspicious, while the other, Nubia, wore a more open and curious expression. "What do you know of this place?"
Nubia paused, seemingly looking for a useful answer, but the fact was she also didn't seem to know what was going on here. "I don't know... I think I was... Sleeping? And then I heard voices, and now here I am? If that makes any sense?" With an apologetic smile, she added, "You're the first Senshi I met, to be honest. Everything is still pretty new to me."
"You too, huh?"
It was then that two of them realized they had both experienced the inviting and warm presence of those mysterious three voices - wherever they had come from - and found themselves transported through a crystalline room as a result of the calling. This wasn't a particularly vivid dream.
They weren't alone. Not anymore.
Seika spoke once more. "Well... I haven't really met another senshi, either." They nervously scratched the back of their neck, averting crystal blue eyes, seemingly desperate for a distraction. Which, thankfully, was achieved by the single door sitting in the room. Nubia was following their gaze while Pectolite inspected their side of the room... Room, cavern? She wasn't even sure. Caverns should not have doors, should they?
But again, a room with all these crystals and shininess...
Her thoughts were cut off by Seika. "Looks like that's our way out of here."
The written part is bits from our rp put together into a smaller chunk. For the drawing part, Trick did the sketch and the lineart, and I did the shading and the rendering. Kudos to them for their perspective and their work, it has been a real pleasure to work on their file!
Hope you'll all enjoy this as much as we did!
