With a fugitive glance Lexi looked up into the clouds and breathed out slowly.
The blanket of night was sinking ever deeper into the sky and what had started as a beautiful purple and pink skyline was now black as coal and the moon had decided not to help in any way as it hid behind the rolling clouds. It had been all of twenty minutes since Lexi's life had been so...so messed up. She couldn't even put into words how she felt. Scared? Apprehensive? Happy? She didnt feel any of those things and yet she couldnt stop her hands from shaking and her heart racing. She couldn't comprehend what was going on, and even though she had joked about the circus for a few minutes the initial shock of what happened flowed over her in a tidle wave setting her anxiety levels running.
What the hell had just happened.
Orah was actually this magical girl, this Sailor Senshi of Orchids, Ida. And she had just saved her life from someone who looked like a villain from a Disney movie and to top it all off a talking cat had helped her into becoming a Sailor Senshi as well!? Oh god she felt sick.
"Umm do you mind if we stop for a moment? I dont feel so well." She turned to Orah who was now just a normal girl, no longer the glittering shining hero that had saved the day. Just a regular person, like her. It seemed so unreal. Orah had been leading her to her home stating that they would be able to speak freely and allow questions to be answered yet the thought of talking about it made it seem real and scary and she wasn't sure yet if had been hallucinating the whole thing.
But she knew that wasnt true. It was real, so very real.
"I guess am just a little shaky...I've never been in a fight before, let alone one where I could control magical powers...because am some sort of witch now right...oh god does my mum know? Does my dad? This is so freaky...am a....am a....I dunno what!"
Bluefire Dragonz I know its weird that its a mega back dated rp, sorry about that, but I could always change it if you think it works better being later on! Here is the previous RP talking about going to Orah house but if that doesnt work I know somewhere else they may be able to go!

Hearing the strained, plaintive voice pulled Orah to a halt in surprise and she turned to her companion with a concerned look, brown eyes wide.
"Sure, we can stop. Are you okay? I know this is... a lot to take in... that's why I wanted to get you somewhere safe so we can just talk for a little bit. I'm sure you have a lot of questions..." And they were already pouring out of the girl, though they started out on a far different track than Orah's had, the first time. A witch? Goodness, where had that come from?
"No, no! Its nothing like that! And the only people who know are me, you and Horatio." Orah said soothingly as she lifted her hands up, palm forward. "Just take a deep breath and let it out slowly, ok? I know this is big and scary, but it'll be okay... I promise I'll be there to help." What more could she really say to the poor girl? Getting attacked was scary, and she'd had it worse than Orah had... her first experience had been a youma, not an irate corrupted eternal, and the youma had been easily dusted. She really, truly wanted to lavish Lexi with all the things you said to someone when you wanted them to believe everything was perfect and lovely and safe... but there was so much out there that wasn't. She had to find some sort of a balance between rose-tinted glasses that would get her killed, and the full doom and gloom of the truth that would kill her spirit instead...
"Just... take a deep breath. You're not alone. We're safe right now and I'm going to show you want to do." Orah said softly, reaching out to gently squeeze Lexi's shoulders.

Lexi followed Orah’s advice breathing deeply though her nose and blowing it slowly back out until her heart had stopped racing. She really hadn’t thought any of this though. She was some sort of witch super hero hybrid and she didn’t know how to process that information. It wasn’t like she could just take being attacked and changing into a crime fighter as nothing to be concerned about, she was completely freaking out!
“Uhh am sorry, I know I sound like such a baby but I just, you know, the most exciting thing that happens to me in my life is when I get the TV to work. This is…well, this isn’t me!”
She looked down at her hands, plain and boring, nothing special or magical, just her.
“Are you…are you sure you have the right person?” Lexi took pride in a lot of things but claiming something was hers when it wasn’t, wasn’t one of them. The mere thought of being chosen incorrectly made her feel guilty and ashamed for agreeing to use the power she didn’t deserve. If she could give it back she would but she didn’t know how.
“I can, pretend I never heard the words if that helps? I really don’t think am the best person for this job...well I would be if I worked hard which I would but you know…I don’t want to steal it from anyone else you know?”
Bluefire Dragonz Feel free to move the RP onto Orah house/ make Lexi move where you want her too XD

A gentle smile moved over Orah's face and she reached out to run her hands soothingly down Lexi's arms and take her hands, gently squeezing them to reassure her.
"I know how scary it is." She said softly. "I was in the same place you are now, about a year ago. I know that feeling that you weren't made for this, that its too much to ask of a teenage girl who's never done anything more serious than get her homework done on time... so you aren't alone, trust me. And you're not the first, nor the last."
Turning, one hand still holding the other girl's, she tugged her into moving again towards the flower shop Orah called home.
"My Da is a florist. I grew up helping him in the shop, selling flowers. I'm not even athletic, I'm part of the choir at school. I'd never fought anyone in my life and I didn't know the first thing about how to go about that. All I knew is that there were monsters out there that attacked me and a cat gave me the power to fight them. In the end, that's sort of the core of what a senshi is and does... they are protectors, who fight the bad guys and the monsters to keep people safe. Everyone goes about it in their own way, but our goal is fundamentally the same."
Orah shook her head gently as she squeezed the hand she held, trying to be sure Lexi was actually listening to what she was telling her. "I am absolutely positive that I have the right person. Not because you may be some big, awesome, super-hero fighter type... but you are Bohlinia. There is no one else who could be you. A long time ago, you were Bohlinia and you lived a life on another planet as its protector, just like I did as Ida. When you died, you were eventually reborn as Lexi, like how I was reborn as Orah, but we carried with us that power we used to have, whatever it is in our souls that makes us senshi. I awoke to my power a year ago, you awoke just now. This power is yours and no one elses... and its entirely up to you what you do with it from here. There is no one to make you do anything you don't want to do and no one to answer to if you decide to put away your pen and never transform ever again."
She talked as they walked, trying to formulate something that would be comforting to the other girl, something that would give her some perspective on all of this what where she had to go from here.
"A while ago, I had doubts too and it took a lot of soul searching to decide if I wanted to keep being a senshi. I eventually decided that there was a lot I wanted to do to protect people and I stayed, but this choice is yours to make, really. I certainly wouldn't hold it against you since I had the exact same thoughts once." Orah said softly.

A brief smile flickered across Lexi's face as she was pulled along by Orah, her hand clasped tightly in hers as she walked her towards her home. It was strange looking at the shop and recognizing it as one of the ones her mother used to buy flowers from to decorate the restaurant, a shop she had been in before herself was now the home of the girl who had just saved her. It just reminded her of how weird this whole situation is. Listening to Orah speak calmed her slightly, she obviously knew what she was doing and she took in everyone she said especially the bit about the monsters.
Monsters? There are monsters? Ok that bit she didnt know, and the calming effect quickly disappeared as she followed wide eyed behind the brunette as she spoke of her alternative life. Although her interest flickered so did the sickening feeling. She was reborn? Like as in reincarnation? This was...insane.
"Wow...sorry this is all so...strange to me. I didnt even know, I mean how was I to know? Is this how it is for everyone? I never felt special, i didnt even know reincarnation was real! Am just....me, Lexi, my family is poor and owns a struggling restaurant. Am good at gymnastics, like really good but I've never thought i was...this person or had these powers."
Her mind swirled with a thousand questions and excuses as Orah led them into her home, her thoughts not even filtering over the fact that if they ran into Orah's dad she would have to explain why she was here. She was a stranger after all, she didnt really know this girl other than she had just saved her life and in a way that confirmed what Orah had said was true. She was a protector and took her job seriously, even for someone she had never met before. Maybe...maybe it was a good thing to be a sailor scout. Being led by Orah until they were where she wanted them to be she took a seat her eyes barely glancing over the room she had been lead too her thoughts trying to organize the questions in her head before she spoke them.
"I dont...I dont think I dont want to be a Sailor Scout, I just....cant believe I can help very much with you cause....which, I guess I need to what it is? I guess that is my first question, why are you here? I mean, like why are is this the first I have ever heard before? I know there was that thing on the news with those people fighting all dressed up, and the talk of a terrorist attacks, is this all connected? Were they Sailor scouts too? And who are we fighting? And what are these monsters!!!"
She said the last word with a hint of panic, the realization that actual monsters were about scaring the absolute buttons off her. Bluefire Dragonz [ I assume they are going to her room? I will edit it if you want that changing! and I can image this being a big Q&A rp, so dont worry if your posts back are totally just answering questions and not much else XD! ]
