Voidwalker.
That was only what he called himself, really. He forgot his name a while back, but the Company called him 13-AE.
The company was why he was here, on Langara. Simple collection of information in a hazardous environment, relating to a target demographic in the Aschen Government they were trying to reach. They needed someone disposable, somebody they could simply remake. He had been sure to go through all of the proper channels, to be as legal as possible. The Company provided most of the things he needed, but they ultimately left it up to him to actually do the work. Maybe they were afraid of getting into his way, but he had no way of discerning that.

He wasn't a human being, despite how much he looked like one, how much he was one, biologically, at least. His mind was there, it had just been reduced to nothing but mass a long, long time ago, at the time leaving his body inert. Now, he was more reliant on his soul to pilot his physical matter, something he did from a distance. Maybe it was possession, he had no way of knowing, and nobody else had any way of discovering it. A miracle, maybe. It definitely helped with the biometric monitoring the Aschen had, as he was seen as simply functioning, and his mind was simply sparking with regular thought, something he was able to control almost perfectly.

In any case, maybe that disconnect from a mind, the eradication of anything but consciousness, contributed to his ability to notice Koishi. For a moment, he just sees her as a girl, dressed quite dissimilarly from the average Aschen citizen, something he had done his best to emulate. They didn't usually take kindly to outsiders, evidenced by the "Two Minutes Hate" that occurred not far from here. Then he noticed... the influence the girl gave out, the subtle command to ignore, ignore. It washed over his body, and for a moment it almost worked, before he forced himself to deny it.

It was curious, for sure. He pauses for a moment, appearing to check his watch, staring up through a mirror under the watch hands at the security camera observing the crowd. Yes, it was following her. Interesting.
He weighs his options for a moment, considering whether or not to involve himself, all the while staring at his watch. On the one hand, this didn't involve him, and it would likely have some impact on his mission. On the other hand, time was not an issue, and it probably wouldn't impact much to simply assist, however mildly.
He decides to help, however mildly.
He begins walking after Koishi, walking towards the girl before turning to walk alongside her. He stays quiet for a moment, weighing his options of what to say, before choosing the simplest option and speaking.
"Greetings. What brings you here?"

"Two individuals in sector seven, Retinal scans and facial recognition are negative, please investigate possible breach in security..."

The dispatcher's voice, and EVE's shimmering visage filled the interior of the CPF Patrol vehicle in a soft blue sheen while the pair of officers enjoyed their coffee and fried pastries.

"So they're dispatching us and not the local blues, Joe?" One of the officers asked, while the driver shrugged. "Dunno, but we should check it out, we're not far."

"Right right..." The driver said putting his car into gear, pulling out from the parking lot where they had been sitting.

Moments later, through the traffic, the stretch of sidewalk where Koishi and the Voidwalker were present would be lit up with flashing blue lights, a single black and white patrol car rolling up and coming to a stop. The pair of officers wearing dark blue uniforms, trimmed with white sleeves, and dark sunglasses emerged from within, each holding their hands on unusual looking batons holstered at their belts.

"Excuse me!" The officers called out. "You two! Come here!" They demanded.

"Tango-Alpha I am on station..." One of them called into his radio. "Request Crisis response for possible unidentified entities."

At first she was a bit surprised by someone approaching her, especially since most people had such trouble just noticing her presence, let alone noticing her. Still, stranger things have happened! After all, maybe he knows her sister? People who knew Satori usually had a better chance of recognizing Koishi - though even her sister struggled in that respect.

"Hey there!" She replied to Voidwalker, casually and without a care in the world, swaying her arms to and fro as she walked. "I'm just wandering, you know! I end up places, I usually just come by, explore, then leave!" As she said this, she tilted her head in Voidwalker's direction with a quizzical look on her face. "Are you a child? Normally, children and the elderly can see me normally...but oootherwise, people have trouble..."

As she thought to herself what could've made him more likely to spot her, she stopped as Koishi saw the flashing blue lights and some people step out of their cars.

"Oh look!" She motioned to Voidwalker to look in the officer's direction. "We have friends! I bet they were looking for us."

As she said this, she waved to them and began to walk over - not a care in the world, and smiling throughout the whole way.

"Hello friends! Are you here to greet us?"

The Voidwalker grimaces, exhaling slightly. "Ah."

He walks to the officers alongside Koishi, holding his hands half-raised as he does so, clutching the briefcase in one arm. Almost as a side thought, he responds to the girl's question. "I'm hardly a child, I fear. My soul is older than my body, if you can understand."

He raises his voice to address the policemen, silently noting their actions. "Greetings, officers. I hope there's no issue?"

Lowering his voice to address Koishi again, he pauses momentarily before speaking, his face darkening slightly as he stares forward at the officers. "Kid, listen. These people probably aren't here to be friends, so I would be careful. I don't even know if they notice you, either. Just play it safe."

Once he's a safe distance from the policemen, he lowers an arm to set the briefcase down on the sidewalk, then raises it back up again to put both of his hands behind his head. "I apologize, did I do something wrong?"

Normally it was unlikely the officers would notice through the fog the girl was generating, but with the AI assisting, and cameras triangulating what was going on, the officers knew they were there.

Their radios chattered and both officers took up positions while the lead approached even closer. "We seem to be having trouble getting positive identifications on the two of you, are you tourists?" A small triangular drone with flashing blue lights zipped past them, and began to hover immediately above them.

"Your identification papers, please."

The officer's white gloved hand was outstretched.

Koishi seemed completely unfazed with what was going on, waving a hand to Voidwalker - almost dismissively, as she smiled.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll be fine!"

As the officers spoke, she tilted her head, curious as to how they could spot her...she was unaware of what AI was, or any advanced technology really. Oh well! Either way, she was happy to be able to speak to people again, it was almost like things were back to normal for a moment!

When asked if she was a tourist, she nodded slowly. "Yep! I just sort of wander around places, I end up in the strangest places too...! I think this is my...second time here? This city is really pretty."

Afterwards when asked for identification she blinked and held her finger up for them to wait a moment as she produced a folded piece of paper she would hold out for them to take. It was...crudely drawn on with crayon, listed her name, her "status" as a tourist, and a small stick figure representation of herself. On the back it looked to be a more official albeit foreign ID...of some sort.

Name: Koishi Komeiji
Species: Satori
Nationality: Gensokyan
Address: Chireiden, Old Hell, Gensokyo
"In the event of my sister causing trouble, please come to Chireiden and let me know." - Satori Komeiji

The identification was likely only meant to be displayed where she originally lived, and wasn't too helpful here. Still she smiled along and waited for their reaction.

That's bad.
He didn't get a good look at the ID that Koishi had given, but it was drawn on what looked to be some kind of printer paper.
That's not going to fly at all.
He lowers his hands to reach into his chest pocket, withdrawing a small canvas wallet, the green color of it faded slightly with age. He rifles through it for a moment before withdrawing three cards, all a glossy plastic. One was his personal ID, showing him as a registered corporate citizen. It listed his real name, one he didn't attach much of himself to.
"Business, actually. Here for a job."

The other two were equally as important, one being a work visa that he was beginning to doubt the veracity of, glancing at it a second time. It looked legit, but he really had no way of telling. The company had failed to get him real things before. The final card was a mission statement, stating that "Marcus Walker - SEC Representative, Present in the Aschen Empire for 6 days to contact several individuals in hope of opening Security Specialization to Aschen Gov."
He holds them out steadily, and glances over at Koishi again before straightening his gaze back to the cops.
