>You are Byakuren Hijiri, 18 years old, resident of the city of Mayoiga, caretaker (owner) of Rin Kaenbyou, resident of the Moonside apartments, and third year student of Mayoiga High. A few days ago, you were the most popular girl in school, one of the most well-known and liked girls around town. And then you touched a strange doll, and saw a world not your own. That was the day that everything changed, and you became Magical Lotus, the Hero of the Heart.
>It's training day for you and your girls. Having recruited Minoriko Aki into your group of magical girls, the six of you have gathered today at the shrine of the Fire Bird to test your powers and practice working in a group. You expected to be working with the shrine maidens, knowing they have magical powers, but instead have found yourself working with a group of Blood. These individuals are Brightblood, however, rather than the Blackbloods you fought recently. Excatly how that works you're not certain about, but these Blood are certainly less overtly evil. A couple of them are kind of jerks, but you get those in all walks of life. The leader of the group, a local firefighter Oni, proved to be nearly as powerful as one the Champions, but you didn't have the chance to finish you duel with him before a five on five brawl erupted between most of your group and his. As he is an Oni, you're pretty sure you won't be leaving before finishing that duel.
>For now, though, you have a bit of downtime, talking with one of the shrine maidens and watching Reisen and Kiku spar with two of the Blood.
>Nod
