breatheinthefog*Kaoru set her phone aside to record the Shadows while she stood around waiting for one, which is why she's framed in the shot when a girl her age walks up to her. This one is wearing the same grey sweater and black skirt, with a red pendant instead of a blue one, and has the same pale skin and dilated eyes, except her hair and eyes are red. The new girl -- clearly Kaoru's event Shadow -- smirks.*
Kaoru.
Hello.
*Kaoru's been watching the network enough that she isn't surprised when the other girl throws a punch at her; she just ducks out of the way.*
Why are you questioning our purpose? We have only one reason to exist.
*Kaoru stands up.* I'm not. I know what we're here for.
To destroy the world. Every world.
Yes.
Why did you let some of these people know, then?
Because it doesn't matter whether they do or not.
Right. Nothing matters to you... *The red-haired girl draws out a small, cheap, pink stuffed bunny. Kaoru's eyes narrow.* Right?
How did you get into my hotel room?
You know how. *She laughs.* So?
Put that down.
I think not.
*The other girl gathers dark energy in her other hand and shoots it at Kaoru. Kaoru puts up her hand to block instinctively, but she can't shield anymore -- of course, no powers in Prospero --
and she is instead knocked down in a cloud of dust. The other girl jumps out of the shot, leaving Kaoru alone. Kaoru drags herself to her feet, grabs for the camera, and starts running.*
