A small girl with short brown hair and aquamarine eyes wearing a Japanese School Girl Uniform floated in the middle of a space where there was only whiteness.
Her eyes shone brightly with a light that seemed to transcend all humanly possible.
Her light seemed to pierce space and time, looking into a distant planet from within the Plane where her true self inhabited.
In there, she noticed this world… this beautiful planet.
Earth.
And she noticed another world at its side.
It seemed surreal, but it seemed as if there was an enormous world, several times bigger than Earth, floating in the middle of space.
It was a disk-shaped world, with a gigantic tree as its pillar, and a dark abyss where its roots rested as the floor, holding an ocean surrounded by enormous walls of ice, which held several continents above it.
But although they seemed very close, this closeness was of millions of light years.
However, to her, they seemed very close together.
This was because a connection had been made- no, several ones.
The awakening might soon begin, and the connections are already made.
"A connection…"
The girl muttered these words, as she saw countless rivers of transcendental energy connecting both worlds across space and time.
Meanwhile, the place where she currently was infused its endless spiritual energy all across the two worlds.
"It is really happening now… All he requirements… have been met… After… so long…"
FLASH!
A distortion in space and time happened, as the flashing light pierced through everything within her vicinity.
And then, she emerged at the side of another woman.
The woman was currently sitting in her couch while looking at the strange tattoo that had showed up in her hand a week ago.
She had bright aquamarine eyes, and long brown hair made into a ponytail.
Before this tattoo showed up in her hand, it had been the birthday of his lost uncle, the one that had died almost two decades ago in an avalanche.
Back then she was but a little girl. But she loved her uncle a lot, he was a humble and silent man, but he held a gentle demeanor, and always gifted her the things she asked him for Christmas and her birthday.
That uncle also introduced her to the world of manga and anime, something that's still her passion, to the point she even became an artist.
"What is this tattoo all about? Is this some sort of paranormal things? I've seen them in TV lately… Espers or something… are they real or not? There are so many conspiracies- AH!"
She didn't realized there was a girl with Japanese uniform staring at her intensively without even blinking all this time…
"W-Who the heck are you?!" she asked, almost falling off the couch she was.
"You, the one that has made the connection to the Great Dragon of Ice, must quickly met the requirements. Go meet the Fire Herald before it is too late. There are only 24 hours before the future change, you must quickly move…" said the mysterious girl.
"What? What are you even talking about?" asked the woman.
FLASH!
Suddenly, several images emerged inside of her mind, giving her a slight headache!
"What…?!" she asked in disbelief.
The girl in front of her had used some sort of strange and mysterious power over her…
Could it be?
Was she… an Esper?
"What do you want from me?" she asked.
"I have already provided enough information… Meet a woman known as Lucia, you'll know what to do afterwards…" said the girl.
"Wait! Why are you doing this? what's… the purpose?" asked the woman.
"…Purpose? The purpose… Right… The purpose is… I am somewhat of a guider. I simply… Don't want things to end. I am hopelessly trying to do the impossible. Will you help me achieve it? Well… it is up to you." Said the girl, as she disappeared.
The woman was left looking at the scene in silence.
That girl… was really something else.
"Purpose… so her purpose is… saving the world or something? What…? And she's a guider? Ugh… This is so confusing… And mom is taking so long to get back home… But I cannot really tell her about the tattoo, or she'll make a big fuss over it…" sighed the girl.
The girl sighed as she sat over the couch in a fetal position and began to think. Despite all the fantastical things going on, she had kept her composure fairly well, perhaps because she was a fantasy story artist, and it was quite hard to surprise her due to her mind always filled with fantasy and fiction.
But even then… this felt way too much for her, it was overwhelming to say the least, but there wasn't much she could do, other than think what to do…
She thought about what the girl said, in 24 hours fate would change, meaning that she won't be able to do this anymore…
To go to this hospital inside of her head and do… what the girl asked her to do.
To meet a red-haired woman named Lucia, the Flame Herald.
"This is way too much for me…" she sighed.
However, at the end, she decided to take a shower.
When she entered into the bathroom and the warm water began to fall over her, and she touched it, her emotions were still concerned and unstable, provoking… something within her to awaken and… well…
Freeze the water.
"Huh!?"
Crack… crack…!
The sound of water freezing right in front of her eyes showed, as the entire shower was frozen in an instant!
"What the hell?!" she asked in surprise.
She almost stripped over by the slippery ice below her feet, but somehow managed to keep herself standing.
What happened before her eyes… was it enough proof that everything supernatural that was happening right now wasn't just a fabrication of her insane mind as a fantasy writer and artist?
"I-I am… I am an Esper? Since when…?"
And then she noticed something… her tattoo was glowing with a bright azure light, emanating an icy aura from within…
