Welcome to Gaia! ::

As Kallichore went about trying to reach into the subspace pocket on purpose this time, she nodded when someone else knew who the cat named Derp was. "Yes, yes it was her. And the senshi was Albali, I believe. She could echo things. Very... inconvenient." She grasped at thin air again, but this time, tried concentrating harder. There had to be a trick to it, and as Europa had explained it got easier with time, which made Kallichore less self-conscious. But what was she looking for, though? Shaking her head, she pulled back her hand.

Easier to try it when they weren't so high? The newbie senshi turned to her superior and tilted her head in question. "You'd like to continue this on the ground? Makes sense. I'd rather not make a mistake and hit someone in the head with a flying henshin pen..."

Looking down to the ground, Kallichore gingerly hopped onto the side of the building's fire escape. Many of these buildings were older and equipped with these metal railings, making it easy for the senshi to ascend and descend as needed. It was a blessing in disguise, she supposed. Maybe this was the reason Europa decided to patrol this place with such regularity?

As soon as boot hit the pavement, Kallichore was watching Europa again, taking mental notes as to the movement and thought process behind the whole mechanism. Once she became a senshi, most human logic went out the window. Things like magic explained everything as much as it needed to be explained, no matter how little sense it all made. The sudden-disappearance-of-personal-magical-items being the first of many things Kallichore found she couldn't wrap her mind around.

Holding the henshin pen in her right hand, she watched as Europa demonstrated a second time.Tilting her head, she mimicked the motion to make sure she got it right before willing her henshin pen to disappear with a flick not unlike someone twirling a pencil. She blinked, and the pen had indeed disappeared! Where it had gone to was anyone's guess, but imagining it again in her hand, she repeated the motion and the pen reappeared as if by magic.

Kallichore shook her head. "That's... incredible and very convenient. But we can't send anything else there? I'm sure 'subspace ate my homework' wouldn't be a valid excuse at school." A small chuckle escaped her, and while it was short and soft, it was still something Kallichore rarely permitted herself to do.

Shifting her weight onto her other leg, Kallichore listened to Europa's explanation. "The cat didn't mention a phone, but I guess that's understandable in the heat of the moment. Plus, it was Derp." That would explain everything. The fact that Derp knew she was a senshi and what she was the senshi of should be considered a blessing in and of itself. Anything more than that was simply extra frosting to the cake, so to speak. "So, we have a phone as well, like the one you have? And it's in this subspace storage... thing? We can just pull it out like we do the henshin pen?"

Seemed simple enough, and having Europa's phone there as an example helped her imagine what hers may look like. Likely it was red like her fuku, and probably had the same shape as the Eternal Senshi's. Closing her eyes, she imagined a phone just like Europa's in her hand, and she mimicked the motion that brought her henshin pen into existence. The first few tries yielded no results, but Kallichore kept trying the motion over and over.

Suddenly, a phone much like she had imagined had materialized into her palm, and Kallichore stared at it in shock. "Oh!"

With Europa explaining everything the phone did, Kallichore listened with rapt attention. Flicking the phone's faceplate up and down as the explanation continued, Kallichore noted that it looked much like her old cellphone, but with obvious magical enhancements. How she could have this replace her old phone without any suspicion was something she'd have to work out on her own, if such a thing needed to be done.

Once the center button's function was explained, Kallichore couldn't help but look skeptical. "The center button makes you go into space? How does it do that?" she asked, turning the phone over and over in her hands, as if looking for the mechanism that resembled a cannon or a giant trampoline. How on earth could you get into space with a cellphone? It took humanity long enough to get airborne, and even longer than that to get into space. That required rockets, fuel, years of training and several boatloads of cash. Plus you had to be friendly with NASA if you wanted to avoid problems. How did senshi do this without being detected by radar? Was that magic too?

It was all very confusing. "Have you... been to Europa? What was it like? Was it destroyed like Zinkenite had said?"

Teleportation? Well, if things like transforming into a strangely-suited soldier in charge of making people insane was normal enough, then teleporting into space with a cellphone made about as much sense. But she didn't know who or what Kurma was. She asked about that before shaking her head at the commentary towards Zinkenite. "I take his information and opinion with a grain of salt." explained the newbie, idly tossing the cellphone from one hand to another. "I figured, take the information the enemy is giving you and bring it to someone on your side - figure out if it's propaganda or not. Who knows, we might end up learning something beneficial to us."

She shrugged again and listened to the experience about 'going back'. What would Kallichore be like? From what she read, it's an incredibly small moon and like she said earlier, the equivalent of Rhode Island to the rest of the United States. How could a civilization fit on such a tiny place? Then again, Crete was fairly small and lots of people lived on Rhode Island...

"Abandoned? That certainly sounds much better than 'destroyed'. I wonder how space probes from earth haven't found these places on the moons yet? I guess I shouldn't complain... what was Europa like?" She was eager to find out if there was some sort of hidden place on Europa. She didn't know what the surface was like (one was rocky, one was icy, one was gassy, or so she thought, but Christa could never keep the moons straight). Was there a grand palace? Underground cavernous homesteads?

Looking down at the cellphone, many images of what Kallichore could look like swam through the senshi's head. Would it be like Europa had described it, or would it be something else entirely? The only way to find out was to go there herself. But what was this mention of a Kurma? He taught senshi how to go into space? "Do we need to meet this Kurma person in order to go to our home world? Is Kurma a senshi?"

It would make sense if Kurma was a senshi. Maybe the senshi of space or travel or something like that. If Kurma wasn't a senshi, then... if other senshi trusted them, they must be decent. Obviously a Negaverse officer would not have the ability to go to space like Europa had described. She had a lot of questions and was very glad Europa didn't seem to mind.

She turned the phone over in her hands before asking another question. "Does it take a long time to go? I mean... could you go and come back in one night, or do you have to tell your parents that you're going to a sleep over and you're gone for like, two days?" She wondered how senshi got away from family and other obligations without anyone seeing it as odd.

"So," started the less experienced senshi, looking up at the sky high above them. They could travel there, to the homeworld one Negaverse agent says was utterly destroyed by the senshi themselves? Somehow, Kallichore doubted the truth to that claim. "What does it mean? We're both from moons of Jupiter in the past. Does that mean we knew of each other or something? Did we serve the same people? You mentioned a Jovian court. What does that mean, exactly?"

Tilting her head, everything Europa explained brought forth more and more questions from the younger senshi. She wanted to know everything Europa knew, if such a thing were possible. Were they all part of a court that served the same ruler or something? Or was all of that a moot point now that so much time had passed? She idly flicked her cellphone's upper lid up and down, wondering how she could access the database with it. Perhaps she knew something that could be useful to the rest of the senshi as a whole.

She's also need to track down this Kurma person.
