She was lost, there was no doubt about it.
The city was massive, and if she hadn't had felt unsafe, she'd have taken in the sights of it, realizing the intrinsic beauty of it. All she knew was that she was being chased... and whoever the chaser was, they'd chased her from her world... and from Destine.
She ducked into an alley, covering herself with a cloak. She could only hope for something good to happen soon. It wasn't that things were horrible; of course. Granted, the only money she had didn't seem to be accepted here, but her blade was still securely on her back under the cloak. She didn't let anyone see it, lest they feel threatened, but she was glad that she had it.
Since she didn't know where she was, it was a corollary that she also didn't know who was here, and what most of the people were like. Most importantly though she was troubled.
Someone had chased her here, and someone was keeping her here.

"Hello, darling." A voice said that echoed in the alley, "Why do you want to hide from me?" A man in blood red clothes walked into the alley. "I will not hurt you."

Celes whipped to face the speaker, her eyes narrowed under her black cloak. She didn't know who this was, but... she had a hunch. "What do you want from me? Are you the one who brought me here? Where am I?" She asked in rapid fire.
While she waited for a response, she closed her eyes, willing her Runic powers to the surface. No matter what world she entered, what Plane she visited, what Realm she stepped, her Runic had always accompanied her; a kind and gentle force to assist her. Once again, those powers sprang to life... but as she tried to sense his abilities, it was almost as if some shroud blocked her from it. Her eyes opened with a start, but years of practice allowed her quickly smother any alarm that she might have had. But, if this person could block her most basic abilities, ones she'd had since... who knew how long...
Looking down, she noticed a very slight tremble in her hand, and she closed her eyes as she realized what it symbolized. She was absolutely terrified. Celes Chere, the Avatar of Shiva, was absolutely petrified. She who had faced down man and beast alike with indifference was having to control her very emotions not to run away again.
She swallowed with difficulty, before mustering the courage to speak again. "Well?... I'm waiting."

"You are here, on Earth." He said as he walked closer, "and No, I was not the one that brought you here. But I have a hunch who it was. My sister, Profeta, was the one that probably did that. She wanted your help to defeat me. But there is something that I want with you."

Earth... she had no idea what or where that was. But she couldn't allow that to distract her; after all, her fear was already doing that. Right now, she needed to figure out what this man wanted from her, and possibly what this Profeta wanted with her.
"What... do you want from me, then? And why would your sister wish to defeat you?" She questioned.

"Well, I know for a fact that this Universe is screwed up, so I am going to destroy it, and recreate it. My sister thinks that the gods won't kill of the humans and let the humans guide themselves in the right way. Well they will fail and I am tired to see humans always getting killed because of the gods have too much damn pride, to admit that, and let the humans help to guide them. Now, the Humans now are too damaged, so I have picked a hand few and we can bring the universe in the a golden age!" He said as he hands were in the hands like a preacher. He then pulled out his whip.
"I want to prove a point to her. To show her that resisting me will end with pointless deaths."

Wandering by the alley were two figures, both boys around sixteen. They both looked almost identical, except that one wore a blue-and-gold striped bandanna over his long, blue-black hair, which was tied into a ponytail, and the other wore a blue baseball cap, and wore his hair short. They were talking about something...
"So, what's the deal with this Lana character?" asked bandanna. "You two seem pretty close..."
Baseball-hat sighed. "I just don't know why you guys don't trust her. She's saved my life a buncha times. And, well, I know she's hot-tempered and all,b tu so is..." He broke off. "Did you hear that?"
Bandanna shook his head. "Hear what? Your ears are better than mine right now."
Baseball-hat sighed. "Yeah... I hear voices... one of them... I duno, but I sense darkness."
"Damn." Bandanna swore loudly. "Let's go."
They ran into the alleyway... then stopped.
".....Trucido!" growld baseball-hat. "What are you doing here?"

Trucido turned around and saw the twins. "I remember you, Kouichi, the cat man." He said but then he pointed to other boy. "I have no idea who you are. Could you tell me who you are?"

Bandanna grinned. "Kouji Minamoto, at your service. Kouichi Kimura's twin brother."
"Who are you?" asked baseball-hat - the boy named Kouichi - of Celes.

"Great. I get to kill 3 heroes instead of one!" He looked at them, "But who dies first?"

Kouichi growled like an animal, drawing the long, pole-shaped object he carried on his back, wrapped in cloth. "None of us! Just step away from the girl, Trucido! I know we can't kill you, but we can at least do some damage before we go ourselves!

"You want to know why you can't kill me?" He asked them ", but first answer this question. Why do you want to fight against me? Because Profeta told you?"

"Because your vision doesn't include any who aren't like you," answered Kouichi, releasing the cloth that bound the ole in his hands. It fell away to reveal a beautifully crafted naginata. Likewise, Kouji drew a staff from the tube he carried on his back.

"Yes it does, it just not includes gods that do not think like me." He said as he turned, "Excuse me, but I need to kill her." He swung his whip down at Celes.

With practiced ease, Celes' blade was unsheathed and blocking the whip; the cloak having been deposited on the ground. She glared coldly at Trucido. "I don't know what your vision is entirely, but I don't like it." She slid her blade away, putting it into a defensive position. "But, I'll have you know that I can and will defend myself."
She looked at the two who had come to her rescue. "Celestia Angelina Chère. Please, call me Celes."
