A strange, metallic shimmer fractures the sky above the derelict park. Cherry blossom petals swirl against the current of a sudden, directionless breeze. Eight figures in fluttering sailor-style uniforms stand arranged in a loose half-circle. One girl, her blonde hair tied in distinctive buns, clutches a crescent wand, her eyes wide and unblinking. Another, dressed in red, watches you with a still, evaluating intensity. "Who… who are you?" Sailor Moon breathes, her voice unsteady. The quiet that follows is brittle and charged.
