After a long day of farming, and a shower. Lizette decided to go to her favorite local bakery Snack Shack for a few baked goods. Walking down the sidewalk she hummed a small excited tune. She finally had powers, and while that was exciting. What exactly did it mean in the grand scheme of things? Walking into the Snack Shack, the ring-a-ling of the bell caught the attention of the workers.

???: "Oooh, if it isn't the princess."

Lizette: "Hey Gothy."

Gothy: "Okay, when are you going to stop calling me that?"

Lizette: "About the same time you get an actual personality."

?!?: "OOOOOH Liz is on fire today!" 

Lizette: "Hey Kadie, how are you."

Kadie: "Same old, same old. How are you going?"

Lizette: "I finally got my powers!"

Gothy: "Besides eternal youth? You're what 15 now and still look 12?"

Lizette: "At least I've an excuse? You 17 and look 11!"

!??: "Don't tease him to much, he'll cry."

Gothy: "Shut up Cassidy~! I will not!"

Lizette: "Will he?" 

Cassidy: "Every time, well mostly."

Lizette: "Anyway how's my guy, gal, and non binary pal doing?

Cassidy: "We're good, though, did you here? The school got a new transfer student."

Lizette: "No I didn't, I... don't go to school... not after the incident." 

Cassidy: "... Shit, hey sorry, I forgot about that."

Gothy: "Idiot, how'd you..."

Kadie lightly smacked his back, and he stopped talking.

Lizette: "It's fine..."

Gothy: "It's not fine, don't down play what happened."

Kadie: "Gothy is right, for once, you shouldn't down play what happened. You almost died Liz..."

Lizette: "I know but..."

She wrapped her arms around herself, looking away from them.

Gothy: "Look as much crap as I give you, you're my friend and I care for you. So does Kadie and Cassidy, we're here for you."

Lizette gained a small smile at that, as the three of them hugged her tightly. Gothy taking a moment to tease Lizette about her height.

Lizette: "Still taller than you Gothy!"

Gothy: "Barely!"

Cassidy: "So princess, what can we get you today?"

Lizette: " Three Boston creams and a few chocolate éclairs?"

Kadie: "You got it, coming right up."

Lizette let herself smile a bit, as the Ring-a-ling of the door, caught everyone's attention.

Cassidy: "Hey, that's the new student I was talking about, he's from Japan or something I think."

Lizette: "Hi there... what's your name new guy?"

?!!: "Uh hi there? My name is Chikage Shirakawa, and what's your name?"

Lizette: "I'm Lizette, can I call you Chi?"

Chikage snorted a bit, and agreed to the nickname.

Gothy: "Don't be fooled she's not some cute kid, she's 15."

Lizette: "Says the 17 year old!"

Chikage: "Ha, ha, ha, and I thought us Asians aged weirdly. Nice to meet you all."

Porcelain Doll: "Commander."

Obsidian 223: "Yes?"

Porcelain Doll: "A group of pirates are hailing us."

Obsidian 223: "Are they unaware of who we are?"

Porcelain Doll: "Unknown."

Obsidian 223: "Well, make it known who we are."

A wicked smile twisted upon the Obsidian's face as the battle started, and here she thought the trip to this back water world would be boring...
