La Guerrera del tiempo by Starsea

la sangre de mis raíces

Theme: Origins

La chica mestiza.

The girl of mixed blood. No matter where she lived, it was written on her face. In Peru, she was la japonesa, la mestiza (technically, it was meant to be applied to those who were half Indian, half Spanish, but they threw it at anyone who couldn't be put into one category or another). It was her eyes. In Japan, she was a gaijin, because of her hair and her skin (she would never be a pale Japanese beauty).

Soy media peruana, media japonesa. Y no voy a disculparme por eso.

She was Meioh Setsuna to her parents and the neighbourhood, she was Susana to her Peruvian friends, and inside her head, she was, she was... la guerrera. But she had never fought anyone or anything. Not in the sense of that word. She was no warrior. She was a scientist. She studied Physics and Biology and she applied to KO University in Tokyo, one of the Big Six, and she got in. She exchanged one country for another.

And then she found out where she really came from.
