First Recruits

"Memories wash over CarlNotNPC. like a tide. Everything felt vague, intangible like a painting splashed with water. You felt flickers, as if CarlNotNPC. were experiencing an infinite number of lifetimes in a single moment. Slowly, the sensation ends, as CarlNotNPC. opens their eyes. The room around user is largely blank, four walls, a computer, a bed, and a small kitchenette." "Small couches and pillows dot the floor. The walls themselves are transparent, allowing CarlNotNPC. to see the swirling maelstrom outside. This is your room. You are sure of that much." “Took you long enough.” "CarlNotNPC.’s head turns around, finding a young woman with long gray hair, wearing a long white shirt that fans out into a knee-length skirt with black leggings standing before you. She looks vaguely familiar." “My name is Kamisaman. It's good to see that you’re awake CarlNotNPC.. Are you ready to begin your duties?”

Kamisaman, taking on the appearance of a young woman with long gray hair and purple eyes, looks up at you. "Your duties, CarlNotNPC., are to protect the city from any threats that may arise." She pauses, her expression growing more serious. "You will need to use the Omnisphere, which is a small drone that can phase through walls. It will aid you in your battles as well as help gather information. Do you have any questions?"

Kamisaman nods at your question. "It's simple. You just need to think about where you want the Omnisphere to go, and it will follow your mental commands. The Omnisphere can also respond to voice commands if you prefer that method."

Kamisaman smiles. "I have it right here." She pulls out a small black cat-shaped drone from her pocket and hands it to you. "Be careful with it, CarlNotNPC.. It's a valuable tool that can help you greatly in your battles."

The Omnisphere materializes before you in the air. It hovers quietly as if waiting for your command. You can feel its presence around you, almost like an extension of yourself. What would you like to do with it?

As you focus your thoughts, the Omnisphere glows brightly and creates a holographic display in front of you. You see a map of the surrounding area with several magical energy signatures popping up all around you. The closest one seems to be just a few blocks away, in the direction of Arihane Institute.

You control the Omnisphere, making it slip through walls and navigate through the city streets with ease. You soon arrive at Arihane Institute, a large building in the heart of the city. The magical energy signature is coming from within the building. Would you like to enter and investigate further?

Omnis phases through the walls of Arihane Institute, allowing you to enter unseen. Following the energy signature, you come upon a classroom where lessons seem to be wrapping up for the day. Two girls are staying behind, chatting with each other as they pack up their bags - one with brown hair in spiral buns, and the other with short blue hair. Could these be the magical girls you've detected? Omnis floats quietly in the corner as you observe, hoping to learn more.

Omnis remains still and silent as it hovers near the ceiling, watching the two girls closely. The brown-haired girl with buns, Iroha, is enthusiastically telling her friend about something that happened in class. "And then he totally spilled juice all over himself! It was so funny Kaori, you should have seen his face." The blue-haired girl, Kaori, giggles politely at the story. As Iroha continues gesturing with her hands, she happens to glance up and notices a strange black shape in the corner of her eye. "Huh? What's that...?" She peers closer at Omnis, trying to make out what it is. It seems these magical girls may have sharper senses than normal - will Omnis be able to remain undetected?

Right, my mistake. As Iroha peers closer at Omnis, hovering innocently in the corner, suddenly her eyes widen in surprise. "Ahh! It's a Kyubei!" She points at Omnis with an excited gasp. Kaori jumps, then focuses her gaze where Iroha is pointing. A look of realization comes over her face as well. "No, Iroha, that's not Kyubei...I've never seen one like that before. Maybe it's...a friend?" Omnis remains perfectly still, allowing the girls to observe it without fear. Iroha tilts her head curiously. "Who are you, little kitty thing? Are you here to help us?" Kaori watches Omnis cautiously yet curiously as well. It seems these magical girl candidates are aware of supernatural phenomena. Will Omnis introduce itself and its purpose here, offering help to these potential protectors of the city?

The girls jump, startled at the voice that suddenly emanates from the small black drone. "It talked!" Iroha says in awe, her eyes lighting up. Kaori just watches with careful curiosity. The drone speaks again in a soft, polite voice. "Hello. What are your names?" Iroha immediately perks up, always eager to meet new people. Or in this case, talking animals. "I'm Iroha!" she replies with a smile. "And this is my friend Kaori." Kaori dips her head in greeting. "We're students here. Who, or what, are you?" Iroha asks curiously.

"Omnis," Iroha repeats, testing out the name. She smiles brightly. "It's nice to meet you, Omnis! Are you here to help us?" Kaori gazes thoughtfully at the drone, taking in every detail. "Why have we not seen you here before?" she asks. Iroha nods eagerly, mirroring Kaori's questioning look.

"I see," Kaori nods, her curiosity piqued. "And what is it that you do, Omnis? Do you have a purpose for being here?" Iroha eagerly waits for the answer, always eager to learn about new things.

"That sounds amazing!" Iroha exclaims, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "How exactly do you empower magical girls, Omnis?" Kaori watches the drone intently, also curious about the answer.

Iroha and Kaori gasp as they feel the transformation magic flowing through them, their plain clothes replaced with their magical girl outfits. "Wow...this is amazing!" Iroha says, twirling around to get a better look at her new attire. "I've never felt so powerful!" Kaori nods in agreement, her eyes wide as she takes in her new appearance. "Thank you, Omnis. This is truly incredible."
