After her encounter with the Dark Mirror corrupt Protogenia, Nausikaa was on her toes this time. She leapt from rooftop to rooftop, always keeping her feelers open for Chaos signatures that might indicate another one of those was out there, waiting for her. She knew what her own magic did, serve as a buff for her teammates, but when you haven't got a team, it falls back on physical attacks. Which she had done, only to be trapped in a bubble for what felt like an eternity, frozen in place mid-leap and unable to shout or even scream. Creepiest feeling ever.

So she was on guard tonight. She didn't want what happened to her to happen to anyone else. Besides, weren't these people like stealing starseeds too? That's what she'd been told Chaos did, steal peoples' starseeds. Their very souls. She shuddered at the thought of someone digging their hand into someone else's chest and removing the spark that kept them alive, kept them who they were. They were clearly the cause of the mysterious comae and deaths in Destiny City.

Then she felt it – a Chaos aura, not too far away, that felt like Protogenia's had but much stronger. Nausikaa knew she had to take care of it, before they got someone else with their energy draining and starseed-snatching. Leaping down to the pavement below, she warily approached the source of the aura. She couldn't see who or what they were, but they'd appear soon enough, of that she was certain.
