Zen and Mifune --- the meeting
As Lancia patches up some of Zen's wounds, the summoner recalls her first encounter with the dark unit.

---

"For crying out loud, could you be anymore reckless?!" Lanica scolded the brunette as she continued to bandage her wounds, clicking her tongue and shaking her head. Her short red locks flew around her as she continued her fiery rant (lol, unit element pun).

"I do not deem my actions rash. I regret nothing," Zen replied.

Lancia sweat dropped at her summoner's formality. "You're such a stick in the mud."

"My apologies."

The red head huffed. "I give up. I mean, come on! How hard could it be to relax just a little!? You're wierd habits are even rubbing off on Sergio and Mifune--"

"Actually," Zen interrupted, "Mifune was 'a stick in the mud' a long time ago."

Lancia stopped her first aid, eyes widening with curiosity. "....even though that doesn't surprise me, it reminds me of a question I've been wanting to ask; how in the name of Grand Gaia did you meet such a guy?"

Zen looked up at the starry night sky as she recalled the memory. "It was shortly after my mother died..."


 * le flashback*

Zen held the mahogany box in her hands delicately. Her mother had left it to her, along with a letter. The note was nothing more than instructions, and the box contained the essence of her units. Zen had read the note and was now standing in the Samui training grounds as instructed.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Opening them, she called the names of the units and opened the box.

"Selena, Aem, Mifune."

A bright light shone from the box and three shillouettes appeared before materializing into human forms in succesion to their names.

"My lady," Aem immediately dipped to one knee, "You summoned us?"

"My, my," Selena cooed gently, "What an adorble child."

"Hmph," Mifune crossed his arms and glared down at said child, his scarf hiding the lower half of his face while his hat (what do you call it) cast a shadow over his eyes.
