*In a clearing somewhere on an island covered in forests.*
~Azula~
Well… this is unexpected but very much welcome. If only that annoying water tribe girl hadn't butted in, I would finally rid of that tumor of a brother of mine and take down that adolescent avatar by then-
"How interesting. To be revived even after my death by that girl that used Masamune. Akame was it? " I glanced to my side as my eyes narrowed after hearing the woman talking in a low tone to herself.
This slightly pretty blue haired woman is strong and her pressure is almost as potent as fathers. At first instinct, I thought her to be related to that water bender but it was clear by the animosity behind her eyes that they weren't related at all.
Though, she felt strong and that was a certainty.
"Yo'!" We both then turned to behind us as a platinum blonde haired girl with bright blue eyes and whiskers on her face stood playfully watching us while in a strange orange outfit. "I'm Naruko Uzumaki! Nice to meet you, dabettayo!!"
"... I'm Azula." Can't exactly go claiming to be a princess after I was defeated. This is humiliating but I will play along and live out this new life as I please. "And you?"
I turned to the blue haired woman as she gave a stoic expression while raising her gaze and speaking in that cold tone of hers.
"Esdeath. '' She said but I felt she was thinking deeply about something. "Do we all know why we are here?"
"Yeah-Yeah! I do!" Naruko spoke but then her playful and innocent demeanor changed as a ruthless and sharp maddening glare replaced her cheerful expression. "We are here to hunt down others like us and afterward, we'll be rewarded with freedom."
"Indeed " I added as I still wasn't sure whether I could trust that… mass of darkness that revived us and wanted to use us as tools to take down others like us. "In the end, all we need to do is kill a few pests and we are done."
"... That sounds foolish." Esdeath dared mock me right at my face. My fingers twitched with blue arcs of lightning flickering as my smile turned more sadistic. "Hoh~ You want to bark, little girl?"
"Hmph~! " I charged an attack that was suddenly stopped by a barrier made of ice. Her figure then came crashing down onto me as I spun and countered with a rapid attack as her and my fists connected with my fist and a sizzling sound started steaming from where our skin connected. "Ice, huh?"
"Same to you, hot-head. "Although Esdeath used ice, I could tell it was not something as simple as bending. She commanded it as if it was alive. "As much as I would like to keep this going, I want to get this done so I can make a request to that 'thing' that summoned us."
I wanted to keep fighting but shrugged as I didn't really have a goal for this second chance in life. Maybe find a handsome lover and settle down. Well, that's just a thought after conquering this world.
"Oh! Are ya' guys done?!" We both turned to the interruption and saw that it was that blonde hair girl, Naruko. "As fun as it is watching two beauties battle it out, we have prey to hunt down, dattebayo!"
I stood firm while maintaining a healthy guard as I wasn't going to relax for a second but gave the illusion that I did.
"Tch! As much as I hate being ordered around, that 'thing' that revived us was strong. I'll do my job so keep up or stay out of my way." Esdeath spoke while walking past us and heading in some random direction.
"You know where we are going, Asula?!" Naruko appeared by my side but her dull blue eyes made me certain she was suffering from something.
"Not the foggiest idea." I then turned and ignored the blonde runt as I walked alongside Esdeath as it was more beneficial to pool our strength than to be apart. I learned my lesson the last time before my death at that disgusting prison.

A full day has passed us by. We managed to arrive at a small settlement and after some… 'persuasion', we got connected to records of this world and it was rather evident that this was another world altogether.
"So, either of you have any idea where to start searching for our targets?" I casually said while sitting on a bloodied chair as the mayor of this village collapsed and was unconscious on the floor beneath my boot.
"We have the coordinates to the only city around this area." Esdeath spoke while her porcelain face was stained with blood from the foolish guards that stood in her way. "We head there and find a person in a high position and take control over the city's military network. We'll then issue an impossibility high bounty based on what we were told and start from there."
"Hoh~! Look, look! I found this fancy sword, guys!" I turned to Naruko and saw her swinging the over-expensive sword in the air before she swung the wall and caused a massive cut to bleed into the framework. "Oh!! Sharp! Mine!"
We soon set out to the backyard where an airship that the city mayor owned was docked at the edge of the cliff overlooking an ocean of clouds.
We were on a floating island. Figures.
As we boarded the airship, I did have to hand it to these people as this airship was vastly improved and held greater management than the ones from the Fire Nation's military.
Though, only slightly.
~
It took us nearly 4 days before we arrived at a much larger floating island as navigating the flood of clouds was a mystery had we not had the onboard navigation system.
We arrived at a port and got off as we weren't even out into the eyes of the bustling people coming and leaving the island's port.
We then began moving towards the city and began to gather information.
It didn't take long with our combined looks to get some fools to tell us what we wanted to know.
As we were in the middle of our observations, I turned almost simultaneously with Esdeath and Naruko as we felt a strong presence that even made Esdeath smile sadistically the same as when we first met.
And it was not only that figure, but several dozens of them as they arrived on horseback.
"Say, Rovvro, who are they?" I let my voice slide smoothly while brushing my finger up the drunk man's chin.
"Ah, em'?! Them, the Royal Knights of Calestas!!" Honestly, if it was not for our blessing that the mass of darkness gave us, I wouldn't understand a word this bumbling fool at all. "Thanks."
I next smiled and with a swift movement, I chopped at the guy's neck and he was out cold onto the wooden table.
Meeting up with the others, we then sat around the same table while watching over the scene a few yards away.
"They feel strong." Naruko was the first to speak as I didn't have to look at her to se Rhee usual childish expression wa shone and a cold and much more calculating expression hangs on her face. "I can probably take 2 or 3 but a dozen…"
"5 or 6 for me." Esdeath said as her eyes landed on the leader. "As for the leader, she's strong."
I didn't bother to admit it but it was clear these people were strong enough to emit such a powerful and commanding presence.
As we watched along, then we spotted a bust of flames engulfing the leader whom had her helmet removed for some odd reason.
"A fire bender?" I mused to myself and the leader dashed inside at an astonishing pace. "Looks like fate is on our side. That was a move from an amateur fire bender. And if that mass of darkness told us, there shouldn't be anyone else from our worlds on this one."
"We follow those knights, we find our target." Naruko spoke as Esdeath was sitting with him again, another pensive look on her face.
We soon left after pinning the tab on the drunkards and soon waited patiently as we followed the knights back to a rather large fortress looking estate.
"The guards are similar in strength… that's what my gut is telling me." Naruko spoke as her eyes changed from normal pupils into two large car-like slots that narrowed onto the distance.
Interesting.
I lifted my gaze to Esdeath as she looked just about ready to charge head-first yet, her eyes especially moved around with caution as she looked at the posted guards in and around the estate walls.
Moving the plan to attack at night and infiltrate through the gaps, we set a plan for nightfall as we went around getting what we needed.
Soon, I will be freed from this burden of working as a tool for the mass of darkness and set forth to rule this world with an iron fist.

~Ichika~
It has been less than a day since I arrived in this strange new world.
I was dropped just outside the main city where my protection target was located according to 'that' woman.
I already forgot her name or if she even gave it our as well as her face or if she was really a 'she' at all.
Regardless, I still knew that Sukina was my little brother turned sister.
It didn't matter what she was, she was a younger sibling all the same.
By the time we arrived, I quickly used a genjutsu on a passerby and instantly realized I didn't understand his language.
'Sharingan'
*Shing*
As I imprinted all his memories into my head, I instantly understood the local language and general layout of this world.
Albeit, briefly as mankind has not explored more than 10% of this world in the past 1 thousand years.
After getting proper information on the more wealthy people in this city, I soon arrived at a rather sadistic fat pudgy man's mansion and easily imprinted new memories of me and Sukina as his long lost daughters whom he took in and treated like royalty.
His other much more sadistic practices also ceased and the man became a devout believer in religion or rather, close to whatever the people of this world have as religion.
After setting Sukina into a guest room, I left behind a shadow close to watch over her as I made my way at to gather more information…
Especially on my protection target while I formulated various ways to get close to her and assess if I need to put her in a genjutsu or not.
Flickering between numerous buildings, I soon passed by an armor and clothes shop while using the gold coins I took from the fat nobleman to buy what I would need.
Afterwards, I donned a fluttering neck-length black cloak and adjusted most of my new outfit while promptly leaving afterwards.
~
Stopping at the roof of a residential building, I looked onto a gilded property fence line as I could see this place was more like a fortress than a standard estate.
There were several guards patrolling the grounds as well.
I will have sent a shadow clone already had I not sensed the massive and familiar presence of a chakra beast nearby.
Although I can't pinpoint where it's coming from, I knew without a doubt that whoever it was, was the reason I was assigned this mission to protect my client.
I didn't have a rough idea about how many assailants there were but them being here only confirms that my protection target was within that fortress.
I decided to wait things out and move only when these people start moving.
In the meantime, my shadow clone I left at the estate reported in after creating another shadow clone and showing me memories of Sukina waking up with no recollection of where or even who she was.
This worked greatly in my favor as it would be much easier to keep track of her and keep her safe.
In the meantime, I'll just wait until nightfall and see if these people will make a move.
~Yina~
When I first met the great Prima-Sama, big sis had reported to her as I was still a relatively young ROB at the time so I didn't know who she was.
Much to my big sis horror when I casually called out to her and told her she looked pretty, I was given a head pat as she smiled and then walked away before dispersing from before my eyes.
It was only after that big sis was on the ground drenched in bright white sweat as she looked at me and held me in her shaking arms.
It didn't make sense to me but to my shock and surprise, on the same day of my graduation from the Celestial Academy, I received a letter from an anonymous sender and with it, the body of a fictional character-turned-real.
It didn't specify why I was given such a thing as I knew well that from what Big sis often says when she came home from work, being able to take a singular item or object from any reality was tantamount to ruling reality itself.
And someone strong enough could only dream of taking only a single thing the size of a pin or button was what it would take and even then, their lives would be exhausted as a result.
Yet, here I got a capsule with a new and beautiful vessel for my first and reincarnator I would come across.
It was only now that I realized that it was most likely Prima-Sama who gave me this gift and along with my first Reincrantor, she arrived.
[["Do I have something on my face, my dear Yina-Chan~?"]] I paled and smiled as I shook my head readily from beside her. [["It's such a pity isn't it~. For my own summons to have their own natural enemy on that foxy girl~."]]
["I-Im sorry, Prima-Sama. But what do you mean?"] Weren't we just watching my Korra? What foxy girl?"]
Prima-Sama only softened her smile while staring ahead as she crossed her long fair…
Sexy and deliciou-No!
Stop that! Get your head in the game Yina!
My eyes then drifted onto the screen before me and I blinked as I stood up and spun as I dropped down onto the transparent floor before the holographic multiversal screen…
Who are these 3 beings? They don't belong there…
Wait, that one has whiskers…
No? She looks awful familiar. Where have I-huh?
I know her… and her too!
What…
What is going on here!? Prima-Sama?
[["They are… intruders of sorts, my dear Yina-Chan. It would seem a cranky and moody being is trying to indirectly attack me it would seem~. But no worries…
Adversity makes for great entertainment does it not?"]]
What? Someone is interfering with my first reincarnator? Why!? I'm not even that famous yet or at all…
No wait, what if they interfered because of Prima-Sama?
Yes… that would make more sense.
[["Come! Sor here on my lap, Yina-Chan~"]] Dangerous! This situation is lethal for my heart!
~Korra~
Alright, so fire doesn't work on these glass doors. Noted.
Magic? Maybe. Can I escape a second time?
"Not even close~!" I sighed and crashed onto my bed while puffing my loose hair from my face. "There's got to be a way to get out of here. But how?"
Sitting back up, I looked around and after finding nothing, I could only calm myself by doing meditation.
It was…
Enlightening in a way. After pushing past all my distracting thoughts, did I finally enter a sort of trance.
What I did there or what was said didn't translate to my memory.
But when I opened my eyes again, it was a dark out and I hadn't realized I had meditated for hours.
Before I could sigh for the hundredth time, I felt the whole room tremble as I got up and went over to the balcony.
"What the heck!?" There, in the distant courtyard, I saw a massive skeletal structure going against a massive nine tailed fox.
The massive, bordering on pitch black-red ethereal rod then widened his jaws and in the emit second, a sonic boom exploded the reinforced windows and the shockwave blew me back onto the wall.
I blacked out while barley holding my consciousness as the two massive constricts were about to charge at each other to and I knew well that things were only going to get much worse when…
An ethereal flowing angel landed before me as she held me on her lap. Her bright flowing golden hair and radiant eyes shone up my world as I felt the creeping exhaustion take hold of me.
I was certain I wouldn't die but, how I knew this, I didn't know yet, the same thing as when Iw a sledotatove happened and this time, I felt myself entering a deeper meditation than I had done before.
When in the pitch darkness…
I heard a voice.
{"You sure took your sweet time, my Master. "} A clear and womanly deep voice echoed in my ears as I then woke up to a magical floating place with bright blue skies overhead and an ever flowing magical garden all around.
As I turned my head while finding I was standing at a hill, the wind blew past my face and my eyes turned to stare at a bright golden haired woman with a massive sword embedded onto the ground.
My brain felt numb as I couldn't help but mutter a single word that sent shivers down my back…
"… Saber?" A passing breeze soon swept past us both.
