It'd been a fairly successful night so far--for a thief. Yes, all right, he did enjoy being apart of the Negaverse, but it was truly frustrating to realize how little power he had in his grasp: a wooden sword was not very effective nor intimidating, and he wanted to leap through the ranks in order to grow stronger. The lieutenant was still silently sticking to the shadows after his little chat with Khaldun, having dropped off the first soon-to-be corpse and now in search for his next.
Curious enough, he found himself roaming near Crystal Academy for his next victim, bored enough to take a peek as to just who the hell was out and about on the campus at this time of night. Party girls, perhaps? Well, he could certainly appreciate that--but it'd be their downfall, this time. Obsidian roamed about a bit more, careful to stick to the roofs while surveying the grounds below him with a calculating, if thoughtful expression.
It'd be more fun to fully engage whoever he chose, this time... Sneak attacks were amusing until they just grew dull; seeing someone fight for their life always helped to spice things up a bit!

It was dark out when Bell left the city's Art Center that day. She had done some extensive work on the set for The Secret Garden after rehearsal that afternoon, and usual, she was the only one remaining to get the job done. She had grumbled about that for a good part of the journey back to the Crystal Academy campus.
Bell didn't sense anything wrong as she neared her destination. She had been thinking long and hard about this whole 'Sailor Senshi' thing, and what little she had been told. All she knew is that she was supposed to protect the city for this 'Negaforce' thing. She didn't know how exactly, or why she was supposed to fight. She just prayed she wouldn't have to, and leave it at that!
Too bad that wasn't an option.

He'd been just about to give up and see if he couldn't locate a spot that was a little more populated when the girl slipped just into his peripheral vision, letting the man slowly turn his head in order to better watch. Hmm. He'd almost been hoping for more than one, not honestly seeing how a pack of girls could take him down. Well, the glass would stay half full, for now, and the lieutenant silently stepped off the roof to plummet and land only a few feet from Bell's side.
"Hope you've had a nice night." Obsidian offered with a faint grin even as he rose to his feet and began to approach, fingers twitching a little as though debating grabbing for his sword. He wouldn't need it, he didn't think; he could catch her if she started to run... but perhaps it'd be better just to knock her off her feet while the chance was available.
"Now, just sit tight, and I'll make this quick."

Bell jumped when Obsidian seemed to so suddenly appear. Immediately her body language became defensive. At first she thought she was simply going to be dealing with a mugger - in that case, she had some mace in her purse - but something about the way his presence felt - so corrupted - she began to second guess her previous conclusion.
Could this be someone from the Negaforce? Bell had no way to know for sure, She began to take slow steps away for every inch he advanced, eyeballing his wooden sword. Who carried around things like that anyway?
"What do you want!?" She finally snapped back at him, propriety be damned. "If it's money your after, better luck another time; my wallet is at home."
Bell remained guarded - hand subtly reaching towards the cell phone pocket on the side of her purse which contained not a cell phone, but her little can of mace. After all, Nega-baddie or mugger, she was sure it would buy her some time - time to either flee, or time to find a safe spot to transform.

"What do I want? Would you believe me if I said your heart, darling?" Obsidian grinned a little, pausing as she shifted to a more defensive stance. "Aw, come on, don't be like that... I told you I'd make it quick! If you want it rough though, well..." His grip flexed on the hilt of his sword, clearly not going to protest. Slowly, he began to circle around her, eyes locked on while he began to let the blade's tip sway from side to side.
He'd lash out at her without warning, aiming the hunk of wood towards her legs to see if he couldn't just knock her over entirely. There was no guarantee it'd work; worst case scenario, she'd leap out of the way or just wobble a little and bruise wherever she'd been struck.
Best case? She'd be sprawled out and helpless while he ripped her starseed from her chest.

"You're a sick perverted freak!"
The Negaverse bells still weren't going off in her head yet, but he watched as he gripped that large wooden sword. That would hurt,.. she thought to herself, already wincing. From what she had been told, the Negaverse was after 'starseeds' not hearts, so that just made this guy a would-be rapist. No need to transform, right?
Her grip tightened on her mace. Either way, lieutenant or not, he was still going to get a face full of BURN.
When Obsidian began to circle her, Bell kept a close eye on him, not letting her back be exposed. It was just like creeps like this to attack from behind!
Finally, in a split second it seemed, the sword was coming at her, and she lept. Her heel got knocked by the sword, and she found herself on her hind-end on the ground. In her fall, she pressed down on the nozzle of her mace, though, and the stuff went flying~

"Sorry sweets, I've got a girlfriend! If you want things like that, well I mean, sure, but what are you--sixteen?" He laughed, felt the blade connect--and then felt his eyes suddenly burn like she'd set fire to them. The ******** was that--mace?! Swearing loudly to himself, the lieutenant clutched at his eyes for a moment, tears blurring everything even as he fought to steady himself. Last he'd seen her, she was on the ground, and he lashed out blindly in frustration.
There weren't any witty taunts this time, only a few snarled curses. He'd enjoy burying this little b***h, though she wouldn't get the pleasure of only being in a coma when he did it!

Realizing what she'd done, and not really believing that it had worked so easily Bell frantically scuttled to her feet and ran, trying to avoid the frantic slashing of the wooden blade. She rounded the corner of a building and leaned against it as she caught her breath. She didn't dare look around the corner.
Bell placed the mace back in her bag, and her eyes rested upon the pen that Astrea had given her. Taking hold of it, Bell bit her lip and debated. Was this a threat that called for Senshi intervention, or could she just get away and not have to worry about it anymore?
There was an unexplainable compulsion to act on behalf of the reluctant sailor scout. One part of her Viewed "Sailor Bellatrix" as a being completely separate from herself. She tried to explain it as slipping into the skin of yet another character. Only this play was all too real, and there were no 'redo's, or 'better luck next times'. Bell simply didn't want to play this role. But sooner or later she had to come to terms with it - she was Sailor Bellatrix, Amanozian Senshi of Fortitude!
"Bellatrix Power, Make-Up!"

By the time his eyes had stopped streaming badly enough for him to see, the girl was gone. Obsidian was frozen for a moment, not daring to believe it, and then a distant shout suddenly made him jerk with surprise. Power... make-up?
Unfortunately, he'd tangled with enough senshi to decipher their blabbered jargon. "If you're out there, sweetheart, then you outta know it's rude to keep someone waiting." He called out, flexing his grip aggressively on the sword handle. He didn't know where that wench had gone to, but she'd clearly alerted a senshi of the danger with her escape.
That was fine. That was better than fine. He moved quickly, searching for any sign of...hell, anyone. "I heard you, might as well save us both the time and get out here." He called, feeling a grin start to flick to his face.

It was as cheesy and cliche as any super-hero cartoon Bell had ever seen as a child, but there Sailor Bellatrix stood on the edge of a rooftop, overlooking her furious foe.
"I'm Sailor Bellatrix! Fortifying the city from evil and you my dear, are just the kind of evil I've been sent to exterminate."
Woah, where had that come from? Bellatrix wasn't sure, but hell, it worked for her.

His gaze snapped upward to lock onto the roof-bound senshi, a sneer pulling at his face even as he shifted. "That so, princess? Well, the ******** you doing all the way up there if you plan on exterminating me?" The lieutenant laughed.
In the next second, he'd leapt into the air, sword held high above his head before he came down hard, clearly hoping to smash her where he stood. Nifty thing about the Negaverse; the jumping was awesome.

Jump? Erm, yeah, well she would have but that would have required some quick thinking and at that moment all Bell could do was thing 'Oh s**t..' Once again she found herself down on the ground, behind hitting the hard ground as she tried to squeak out of the way.
That had been soooooooooo close.
Scrambling once again to her feet, she knew she wouldn't be making another easy escape like she had with the pepper spray. Why oh why had she chosen to face this foe?

Too close! There was a brief moment of regret as the piece of wood slammed into nothing, quivering a little as though threatening to snap before he'd hauled himself upright to face her. "What, a little bit of mace is all you got? Whatcha gonna do if I start pulling out star seeds in front of you, mm?" It was a clear threat, and the lieutenant paused to exaggeratedly peer over the side of the roof, as though searching for potential victims.
"Must be pretty hard, knowing you failed to stop all those poor people from dying..."

"Star seeds?"
Hey, she was a newbie! Bellatrix hadn't exactly gotten a crash course in how to be a senshi, and Ellie had been less than helpful in that area. She tried to recall whether she'd been told anything about 'star seeds' but,...
Oh snap! She was in a battle here! Errr~
