Her name is Jinmay

“So you’re Ella – Chiro’s told me about you!” Jinmay said with a smile, clasping her hands in front of her. Chiro had mentioned Ella on an occasion or two, Jinmay had almost forgotten how tall he said Ellanora was though!

“It’s really nice to meet you, I’m Jinmay.”

“That….no longer exists?” The sentence doesn’t quite make sense. All of her systems were coming up blank on trying to make heads or tails of it. She looks down at her feet, how could that be? She’s supposed to be a highly advanced–

The woman speaking up brings her back to the conversation at hand and Jinmay lifts her head. She supposed anyone would be scared, or at least suspicious of this woman, especially with how close she was right now. Jinmay couldn’t explain it in any sort of logical way - but she felt a little more calm with more time that passed.

“I-um–” Courage? Her? Could she even feel such an emotion? “Alright. And um-” She trips over her words, attempting to piece them together quickly. “I…I don’t remember your name.”

⚡ L’ANGE NOIR— a ghost of a laugh, a faint smile answered her statement, though she wasn’t surprised by the knowledge. even if someone had once mentioned her name in front of jinmay, it was in a time now lost to the duplicate. ❝ don’t worry, jinmay. i’m lightning.❞

a brief glance was offered to their surroundings, then the champion’s gaze returned to the girl before her.

       Meanwhile, the young leader lay, his body twitching as he        struggled to force himself back onto his feet. As tempted as he        was to let himself slip into an unconscious mind, he had a duty to        fulfill and he certainly wasn’t going to let Jinmay face this thing        on her own.        The lasers strike the maw of the beast and it flinches, slowly but        surely backing out of its initial position. A hand rests near Chiro,        and the other shield’s the monster’s massive fangs. As the smoke        clears from the struck area, it holds its hand over its face. Then,        suddenly, its jaws lash out–trying to snap around the robot like a        bear trap.        What keeps it from insistently attempting is a sharp pain to the wrist.        As hoped, the distraction Jinmay had provided was enough for Chiro       to drag himself over and stab an electric bolt into the side of the       beast’s hand. The giant yowls, comically grabbing its injured hand       and waving it about. It’s cries of anguish would be cut short by a punch       to the face, delivered by Jinmay.       At least, that goblin-like beast would be sent flying back into the end       of the street, colliding with a luckily abandoned structure that began       to collapse in and around it. The monster would be buried in brick       and sediment before it had the opportunity to blink.

“Hang on Chiro!” She calls down, completely disregarding the monster (probably a mistake on her part. Was that thing still conscious? Was it going to get back up and attack them again? Would they be able to defeat it on their own? On her own?) and flew down to the young leader. 

 "I want more.“

“I’m not meant to play this part.”

“If I were to truly be myself I would break my family’s heart.”

“Why is my reflection someone that I don’t know.”

“No man is worth the aggravation.”

“Who do you think you’re kidding?”

“Girl, you can’t conceal it.”

“No chance, no way, I won’t say it.”

“It’s too cliche, I won’t say i’m in love.”

“Come on and whisper what you want.”

“I’ve got a powerful urge to help you out.”

“You think i’m an ignorant savage.”

“How can there be so much that you don’t know.”

“You think you own whatever land you land on.”

“I wonder why I didn’t see it there before.”

“Who’d have ever thought this could be?”

“I admit in the past i’ve been a nasty.”

“I’ve mended all my ways.”

“It’s a talent I always have possessed.”

“Someone couldn’t pay the price.”

“A girl who gossips is a bore.”

“It’s she who holds her tongue that gets the man.”

“Make your choice!”

“I’m a very busy woman.”

“I haven’t got all day.”

“It won’t cost much.”

“Now’s your moment.”

“We all must pay the price.”

“I can show you the world.”

“When did you last let your heart decide?”

“I can open your eyes.”

“I can’t go back to where I use to be.”

“Let me share this whole new world with you.”

“I can see what’s happening.”

“Disaster’s in the air.”

“Time is racing towards us.”

“I only steal what I can’t affort.”

“One jump ahead of the hitman.”

“I’ve got that wanderlust.”

“The world is my backyard.”

“I’ve only got myself.”

“You’re alone and you’re scared.”

“Come on and lift your glass.”

“Every day is like the one before it.”

“Every guy here love’d to be you.”

“I never see you anymore.”

“It’s like you’ve gone away.”

“I wish you would tell me why.”

“People have been asking where you'be been.”

“Please let me in.”

“We only have each other.”

“Put on a show.”

“Make one wrong move and everyone will know.”

“It’s only for today.”

“It’s agony to wait.”

“I’m getting what i’m dreaming of.”

“But with you I’ve found my place.”

“it’s nothing like i’ve ever known before.”

“Couldn’t keep it in, heaven knows I’ve tried.”

“Don’t let them know.”

“I don’t care what they’re going to say.”

“It’s time to see what I can do.”

“You’ll never see me cry.”

“I’m never going back.”

“The past is in the past.”

“That perfect girl is gone.”

“You don’t have to keep your distance anymore.”

“I finally understand.”

“You don’t have to live in fear.”

“I will be right here.”

“Your life awaits.”

“Just stay away and you’ll be safe from me.”

“I get the feeling you don’t know.”

“You don’t have to be afraid.”

“We can work this out together.”

“I can’t control the curse.”

“You’re not safe here.”

“This is where i’m meant to be.”

“I am on my way.”

“I’ve been around the block before.”

“I’ve given up hope that someone would come along.”

“I’m down to one last hope.”

“My words are a matter of pride.”

“It’s clear from your vacant expressions that the lights are not all on upstairs.”

“So prepare for the chance of a lifetime.”

“You will be rewarded when I am at last given my dues.”

“You’re expected to take certain duties on board.”

“As you thgouth life you’ll see, there is so much we don’t understand.”

“Things don’t always go the way we planned.”

“Can I still just be me the way I am?”

“Can I trust in my own heart?”

“Am I just one part of some big plan?”

“One day when you’re strong and big, you will be a king.”

“I’ve been exiled.”

“I get a little tense.”

“I hate to let them live.”

“The battle may be bloody, but that kinda works for me.”

“They can have the world, we’ll create our own.”

“I am home if you are right there beside me.”

“I know love will find a way.”

“This is what you give me to work with?”

“Well honey, i’ve seen worse.”

“You’ll bring honor to us all.”

“Sometimes it’s too much for even me.”

“I have your hearts and you have my pity.”

“I can improvise.”

“Why should I worry?”

“Why should I care?”

“You can own this town.”

“You can wear the crown.”

“You’ve got alot to learn.”

“You’ll feel right at home on the street.”

“We make an art out of staying alive.”

“Get what you want then get away.”

“Ain’t got time for messin’ around.”

“It’s not my style.”

“This town can slow you down.”

“I know exactly where i’m going.”

“People down here think i’m crazy.”

“There ain’t nothing that’s gonna stop me.”

“Things for sure are gonna go my way.”

“I’m almost there!”

“I’ve worked hard for everything i’ve got.”

“You’re my queen of the night.”

“Love is everything, don’t you agree?”

“Don’t matter where you came from.”

“When you find out who you are you’ll find out what you need.”

“That ain’t gonna make you happy.”

“All you need is some self control.”

“Maybe love will grant you peace of mind.”

“You’re something i never chose.”

“You’re the best I never knew I needed.”

“i need you here always.”

“Who knew i’d be here.”

“When will my life begin?”

“Stuck in the same place i’ve always been.”

“For the first time in forever i’m completely free.”

“Guess I always knew this day was coming.”

“It’s a scary world out there.”

“One way or another, something will go wrong I swear.”

“You’ll just upset me.”

“Go ahead and leave me, I deserve it.”

“On your own you won’t survive.”

“They’ll eat you up alive.”

“Don’t let him device you.”

“I won’t say i’ve told you so.”

“I’m where i’m meant to be.”

“At least I see the light.”
