The sharp beep-beep-beep of the alarm tore through the early morning quiet. Sofie groaned, dragging an arm out from under the blanket to fumble for the snooze button. Why does morning always arrive faster than it should?
She sat up slowly, rubbing her eyes. Yawning, she pushed herself out of bed and walked to the bathroom. After splashing water on her face, a beautiful girl with long blonde hair and piercing blue eyes stared back at her from the mirror.
Sofie Anne Parker. At twenty-one, she was already building a successful career as an influencer. She brushed her teeth quickly, then moved to the closet, sliding the door open to pick out her outfit for the day.
A crisp white skirt and a fitted sky-blue top. Perfect combination, Sofie thought, smoothing the fabric over her hips. It highlighted her hair, her eyes… everything. She glanced in the mirror one last time, satisfied, and headed downstairs.
In the kitchen, Sofie prepared a simple breakfast of eggs and toast. As she set her plate down, she grabbed the remote and switched on the TV. The morning news filled the room.
"This just in—billionaire Bruce Wayne has returned to Gotham City after years of traveling the world. He is now ready to take on the role of CEO at Wayne Enterprises."
Sofie shook her head, barely tasting her breakfast as her mind wandered. I can't believe it's been twenty-one years since I was reborn into this world. She sighed, thinking back to her first memories here. I'm a transmigrator—once a teacher in Arizona, until the day I was run over by a truck. How original.
When she had first woken up in this world, her past life was a blank. Not until she turned thirteen did pieces start to return, sparked by the names Wayne Enterprises and Lex Corporation. A little online research revealed the shocking truth: she had been reborn into the DC Universe—a place of superheroes, villains, and unimaginable powers, where Gotham and Metropolis were homes to legends like Batman and Superman.
The world might seem normal now, but Sofie knew the darkness lurking in the shadows. Alien invasions, secret societies, criminals who could level city blocks… And she had nothing. No powers, no combat skills, nothing that could realistically help her survive the chaos she knew was coming.
A soft blue glow suddenly appeared in front of her, forming a holographic interface that hovered in midair.
[System Download Complete]
Sofie froze. Wait… a system? Like in an anime? Like in fanfictions?
[Welcome, Host, to the Sailor Guardian System.]
Sofie blinked at the text. Sailor Guardian… Sailor Moon? One of my favorites… no way…
[The Host will receive unique powers or skills from various Sailor Guardians upon completing missions. Each completed mission grants experience points (EXP), which can be used to enhance the Host's core stats—including Strength, Speed, Agility, Durability, and Charisma.]
The system hovered silently, waiting for her response. Sofie's heart beat faster. Stats? Real stats? This is actually happening…
Then, the stats appeared before her, glowing softly.
Non-Transformed Stats:
• Strength – 5/5000
• Speed – 6/5000
• Agility – 5/5000
• Durability – 7/5000
• Charisma – 8/5000
• Magical Affinity – 10/5000
[System Explanation: Host, these are your non-transformed stats. They represent your abilities while not in your Sailor Guardian form. When you transform, your Strength, Speed, Agility, Durability, Charisma, and Magical Affinity will be significantly amplified according to the powers granted by the System]
Sofie's pulse quickened as she read the message. She didn't have to figure it out herself—the system had explained it. She could actually become stronger. Faster. More agile. Everything she would need to survive this world and protect it.
[To begin the Host's journey toward becoming a true Sailor Guardian, a Starter Pack will be granted. Do you accept?]
"Yes!" Sofie said aloud, unable to hide her excitement. I can't believe I'm actually going to become a Sailor Guardian!
[Host has accepted the Starter Pack. The Host will receive the Sailor Moon Starter Pack, granting Sailor Moon's strength, abilities, magical attacks such as Moon Tiara Action, and flight. When transformed, the Host's stats will be amplified.]
Sofie's heart raced. Sailor Moon… I'm actually going to be Sailor Moon! She laughed softly, almost whispering to herself. I feel like a kid again, playing hero, defeating monsters in the name of the moon.
Her thoughts paused. Wait… system, don't I need Sailor Moon's brooch to transform?
[No. Host, the power comes from the system, not the brooch. It is not necessary.]
"Can it still be included in the costume? Just… to make it more realistic?"
[If the Host wishes, then yes.]
Sofie nodded, grinning. Okay… so all I have to do is say "Moon Prism Power" to transform, right?
[Yes, Host. Say the phrase, and you will transform into Sailor Moon.]
Her hand trembled slightly as she raised it. "Moon Prism Power! Make Up!"
The air shimmered. The room filled with light. A soft wind brushed against her skin, and Sofie could feel the strange, thrilling warmth of magic coursing through her veins. She felt herself lift slightly off the ground—a gentle float that soon gave way to the exhilarating rush of flight. She was no longer just Sofie… she was becoming something more. Something incredible.
