 -It was a cold night.. the season apparent by the slick blanket of white that covered parts of the city, Polaris' breath hanging in the air, a soft cloud.
She didn't mind it so much, in fact... in a way she felt more at home. Sure sometimes the wind would flutter up her skirt and send a fullbody shiver through her.. but as a native Alaskan.. this scene.. this was much more her forte. The air was crisp, the night more silent then usual, and just as she'd tracked after a lost dog or two in her days, Polaris now tromped through the snow, looking to see if she could find any footprints that appeared well.. less human than the rest.-

 Why was she even doing this? It was freezing outside! Blowing into her cupped hands, Serpentarius shivers as the cold brushed over her bare skin. Stupid cold, stupid winter...She rather be back in her dorm room then on patrol right now. Crossing her arms under her chest, she continue to walk down the sidewalk. Her boots crunching the snow under them. Dark green eyes scan over the snow, looking for any signs of unusual markings. This caused her to scoff alittle, as if she knew what to look for. Rounding the corner, she yelps as the winds blows her skirt upwards. Taking a few steps backwards, the heels of her boot hit a small crack in the cement. Before the poor girl had a chance, she was on the ground with a thud. Wincing, she lays there for a moment. It took alot to get to poor Serpentarius, and at this moment. She was done...ready to go home.

((Sorry for the super delay dear!!))
-Boots, boots, and more boots. A dog or cat track here. But surely nothing that even remotely resembled some grotesque monster of the Negaverse. It seemed the night was going to be as quiet as the last. Disapointing for a girl so ready and rearing to do her duty 'saving the world' and all that.
Following a fairly free set of boot prints, she glanced up only when the soft sounds of a yelp in the distance touched her ears, jogging forward with enthusiasm. And though she didn't find what she was looking for... what she did find was nearly as exciting.
Bare arms and legs, gigantic bow squashed between beneath a fallen body, it didn't take a rocket scientist to guess that "Gee.. only senshi are so lucky to be out in that kind of weather".
Waving her hand a little, though the other girl probably hadn't noticed her yet, she called out pleasantly.- "Hello there!"
-Not 'hey are you okay?' or 'oh no, did a youma knock you down?' just a singsong greeting as she made her way closer, boots crunching on the snow.-

((No worries, sorry for my delay. This infection took alot out of me.))
She just laid there, staring up at the night sky. Why her? Why did she have to do this? It was too cold outside to be doing this. Sitting up slowly, she winces again as she rubs the back of her head. Now she was hearing voice, this was just great.
Turning her torso so she could place her hands on the ground, she blinks as another girl comes into view. Wait was she dressed just like her? White bodice, boots, and a butt bow?
Okay so maybe she wasn't hearing voice, just another senshi?
Standing slowly, she doesn't pay attention to the other girl at first. Instead, she just inspect her uniform. No rips, and no cuts. She was good to go.
Glancing up towards the girl, she narrows her eyes as she nods "Who are you?"

((I hope you feel a little better dear heart No rush at all! ))
-The other girl got up, seemed to inspect herself. Polaris glanced too, noting no grave injuries on her fellow senshi, good. Eyes perked back up towards the other girl's face when the words sounded. Ohh! I meet and greet!-
"Ohhh. Sailor Polaris, the guiding star. Senshi of magnetism." -She chirped pleasantly, outstreching her hand in the offer of a handshake.- "Always a pleasure to meet another guardian of justice."
"You're out on patrol as well, I'd guess? Would you like some company?" -The dark skin girl chattered on, inviting herself naturally. It's not like another senshi would turn her down.. right?-

If only Polaris knew Serpentarius, and knew how Snakes react.
Eying her again, she nods before she turns away "Sailor Serpentarius, Senshi of Snakes. Pleasure to meet another." she pauses after a moment, her head turning to look over her shoulder.
"I am on patrol, but I would not enjoy the company. I work alone." it would seem she didn't get the memo about working together. Or if she did, she didn't care. Turning her head away, she brush the back of her skirt as she takes in a slow deep breath.
"I am to assume that there are no youma the way you came?" hopefully that would mean she could head home early. It wasn't like Chloe would come find her right? She wouldn't have to worry about being yelled at because she didn't do a full patrol.

-Alaska didn't really have snakes, too cold for cold blooded critters. But that didn't mean Aurora hadn't had an experience or two with the creatures while boarding at other schools. And like many girls.. they weren't the most pleasant experiences. Her mind was already grimacing away from the stated power when the girls words struck her like a bite.
Ouch. Cold and clean, one strike.
Polaris wasn't exactly the sort to give up though. Especially when it came to her sailor duties. Though her mind stepped back, the girl herself stepped forward a step.- "Oh haven't you heard?"
"Senshi are being hospitalized. Corrupted to the Negaverse even."
-Gesturing lightly with one hand, she added with a tone that reeked of 'I told you so'.- "It's QUITE dangerous to go alone. Astraea says we're supposed to be working together."
-Fingers brushing against the small inches of skin that remained between her gloves and shoulders, she offered matter of factly. Like she was offering meat to a timid dog.- "Really though, I'm a good partner. I've got a really nice attack."

Serpentarius eyes Polaris for a moment, almost debating if she was telling the truth or not. She hadn't heard anything, yet at the same time, this was all still very new to her. She didn't want to end up in the hospital, are worse corrupted as the other senshi put it.
Beside wasn't it better to have four sets of eyes?
With a rather reluctant sigh, she turns away from Polaris as she continues to walk "Alright, fine we can work together. Only because I want to be done with this. Its cold, and I don't get why I have to do this anyways."

((I can't remember, did we want an actual battle rp, or just a regular meet and greet? heart ))
-Yayyyy! She'd succeeded! Polaris had to try hard not to clap her hands together as she beamed with pride that her words had worked. It was easy enough to see the other girl wasn't nearly as excited, so enthusiasm would have to be qualled. For now atleast.
She had to try as well not to pipe up 'Oh I'm from Alaska, the cold doesn't bother me so much!' either. Secret identities and all. Even if they were teammates. Rubbing her fingers lightly against her gloves she settled instead on the soft words.- "I'm thankful to be so well covered in this. I feel bad for you guys in the shorter outfits. Though I suppose I'll probably be burning up come summer"
-Following after the other senshi, she continued to chatter pleasantly, eyes searching the landscape lightly as they walked. She was trying to make smalltalk. Sadly... her small talk was pretty dry..- "It is kind of a pain to be out so late at night. But I think the whole thing is pretty exciting anyway. Do you not like doing it? I suppose it's not so much a choice of like or dislike with our Princess at stake and all."

((If you want to turn it into a battle, we could.))
Serpentarius didn't say anything for a few minutes, she just let Polaris talk. Just let her do the talking, she would watch for these so called youmas. Turning her head, she arches a brow for a moment "I'm rather new to being a senshi, so I haven't really decided if I like this. Patrolling however, not my cup of tea."
Wrapping her arms around her shoulders, she kept walking. At this point, she would give anything just to call it quits. Though she had a feeling she would have to see this whole thing through now. Polaris seem to know what was going on, so maybe she would be useful.
Glancing back towards Polaris, she gives her a rather weak smile "So do you patrol every night?"

"It can be a drag, especially when you don't find anything." -She nodded, before adding lightly.- "I've actually been surprised by a few youma in the daylight too. It's a little nicer than searching all night for them, but then you have to worry about people around getting hurt and stuff."
"There was this one time in the movie theater... ugh that was such a disaster. The place got so trashed and there was SO many witnesses."
-A smile mirrored Serpentarius' slightly less enthusiastic one as the question sounded, Polaris shaking her head lightly.- "Ahh.. as much as I think I should.. Sometimes I don't. If I'm still too sore from the night before, or if I'm cramming for a huge test. You know." -Polaris was easily out 4 or 5 nights a week though, most of them unsuccessful in finding anything. It was easy enough when someone had no social life.-
"I was thinking though, that it would be awesome if us senshi all had a way of communicating. That way not everyone has to be out all the time, we could switch off patrols and stuff, and maybe have a way of calling for help or just keeping each other in the loop."
-In the near distance the sound of metal clattering in an alleyway echo'd through the night. A person emerged, frantic, stumbling and running followed by something best described as a five foot tall spider monster from hell. It's eight legs contracted before it sprung towards it's victim, the sound of a human scream mixing with youma roar.-

Serpentarius shakes her head at the thought of finding other senshi. With a small shrug, she chews on her bottom lip "Why not just text eachother, or call? Hey what about a twitter page? Something, I don't know." falling quiet, she glance down at the ground as they continue to walk.
The mixture between a roar and scream shocked her, and it showed with the way her head jerked up. Blinking a few times, she looks back towards Polaris "Youma?"quickly picking up her pace, she tries not to take off into a sprint.
If it was a youma, she would wait for Polaris. After all, she would be able to help her out. And just maybe, she would see how this partner thing worked.

"That could work." -She nodded softly to the idea. It was one she'd thought of of course, but it did run into small problems.- "I'm not sure how many senshi would be okay with giving out their identities though for texting. After all, if the negaverse found out they might send spies and disguise." -The was her biggest problem really.. trying to find some idea.. that wouldn't easily fall into the enemies hands and backfire.
Her thoughts were drawn quickly to an end however, eyes following Serpentarius' towards the scream and hulking beast. Definately a baddy. Spiders didn't grow THAT big on their own.-
"Time to kick butt." -She grinned, following after the other girl's lead, bracing the distance between the them and the beast. She'd forgotten to ask her what her power was.. but oh well. First thing first, get the youma's attention off the poor human and onto it's opponets.- "Magnetic field!" -Sweeping her hand as she ran, she yelled out her attack, watching as the mostly harmless bits of metal in the area (an ink pin, some change, a few tin cans, and a small patio chair) went flying towards the spider monster.-

She heard the shout command shout come from Polaris, assuming that was her powers. Stopping dead in her tracks, just a few feet from the youma, she slaps her hands together "Serpent Kiss!" as she pulls them apart, a glowing green snake rears up into an attack position.
As she throws her hands forward, the snake moves rather slow towards the youma. It attempts to sink its fangs into the spider like creature to paralyze it. The look on Serpentarius's face could conclude that something was wrong.
It would seem that the cold was affecting her powers, like it would with a real snake.

-Polaris' first thought upon seeing the glowing snake of doom was similar to her first thoughts of seeing the spider. But then.. it was magical right? And the girl was her friend now soo... What the attack did though.. she wasn't sure.. and the other girl.. seemed alittle confused.. or atleast perturbed as well.
The spider monster reared up in irritation as items struck, leaning back on it's back legs to leave it's front pair free to strike out at the pests that had appeared. Goop dribbled from it's glimmering teeth as it hissed wearily at the serpentine creature drawing near. It lashed out with the swing at the two senshi.-
"Watch out!" -She shouted, as if the other girl wouldn't have figured it out on her own, jumping back to avoid the flailing arm. She caught herself clumsily, barely keeping herself from falling back.
The spider's legs were kind of thin.. she wondered if, even with her lack of upper arm strength, she'd be able to break them. Running forward she grabbed the patio chair from before, heaving it as best she could at the spider youma's back legs. Even if it didn't work.. maybe it'd give some time for the other senshi's attack to do.. whatever it did.-
