"Ahhh, how have you been!? Gosh, I haven't seen you in forever!" Kaori took Mizaki's hands from across the table. The other Savior gave her a smile that mirrored her own, although Kaori could see some stress on her face as well.
"Hi, it's been a while, rookie," Mizaki said with a little giggle. "Though, calling you a rookie feels pretty odd now given how strong you are. You've really been putting in work, huh?"
"Hehe, a little," Kaori replied. "I had to, though. The demons have been getting stronger and stronger, so..."
