Chapter 2: The Call
While this story does take place in the main area of Tokyo, the specific city is known as Kiyose. It is there that two friends are spending the evening discussing various things, such as their lives and how long it's been since they've seen each other.
The young man present is named Kojiro Musashi. He stands five-feet, eleven inches tall, has silver hair down to his lower back that he keeps in a ponytail, and has electric blue eyes.
The young woman that Kojiro is visiting is named Kasumi Akira. She stands only five-feet, seven inches tall, has sandy blonde hair that she keeps in a short ponytail, and a lovely set of jade green eyes.
Kojiro and Kasumi have been friends since they met in Central Tokyo some years ago on a school field trip. Though they always lived far apart from one another when they were little, they always stayed in touch via phone calls or letters. When she was finally old enough, she moved to the City of Kiyose and got an apartment fairly close to Kojiro's home, about two blocks away.
While Kasumi went to college and had a job as a graphic designer for various businesses in the area, Kojiro owned and operated Musashi Kempo, his family's martial arts dojo. He inherited it when he was twenty-two, and has lived there on the property ever since in the living area behind the dojo itself.
I'm sorry for getting off the subject, but I just thought that you would like to know what they looked like, as well as some history, as they will become very important later on. Anyway, they are currently discussing something that has happened to Kasumi as of late.
Two days ago, the Zodiac Sign for Gemini had appeared on her left hand. Whenever she had tried to wash it off or have it removed, it would always appear in the same place, drawn in royal blue. She was currently enlisting Kojiro in helping her research this occurrence, although he was beginning to get a bit irritated from looking at nothing but rumors and gossip.
"Kasumi, this is getting ridiculous." groaned Kojiro.
"Well, there's got to be a reason why it appeared so suddenly!" shouted Kasumi.
"'Sumi-chan," said Kojiro, using his special nickname for her and continuing, "You have to admit. While it IS weird, you may not find a reason for it happening."
