The sky was pure black with no clouds to catch and hold the moon's light in the reflective ice crystals that would have surely been contained within. It was nights like this that Bellatrix wished for a warmer fuku. She wasn't long into her patrol on that icy winter night when she heard a large crash and saw dirt and dust rise into the air in the ally behind a nearby building.
She swiftly looked in that direction and began roof-hopping her way over there. As she looked down below she saw what seemed to be yet another large slime Youma.
"Why me?" Bellatrix asked the stars above. "Why always the slimy ones?" This would be the third slime monster like this she'd encountered. The first was when she had been awakened and fought with Iris, and the second when she met Regulus.
Little did Bellatrix know that her unfortunate Slime Youma streak would continue to grace her with the appearance of yet another senshi....
(For this youma,...imagine a nine foot tall Muk, minus the eyes, but deffinately with some sort of mouth. XP )

Unfortunately for Sailor Alcyone, she had no experience with the large, slimey and sticky kind of youma. At best, she had strange mutants of already existing things, but this? She couldn't even aim a kick without fear that its body would just absorb and devour her leg right then and there. Simultaneously, it was also unfortunate for the senshi of storms that she had encountered such a monster by herself.
She had tried her best. She had hoped that the chill of the winter night would cause her attack to become frozen needle pricks, and she had been right. After summoning up her storm it rained sheets of thick sleet, and it impaled the youma with tiny chunks of ice. For five minutes the glop endured her storm. She had hoped that the ice would cause the goop to freeze, but she was wrong.
It went after her with more vigor when the last drop fell, though significantly slower. She could tell its body was numb from the cold, if that were even possible for such a literal slime ball. It were times like these that she wished she carried a weapon around, or even a giant stick in preparation to post-attack. She won't ever be lucky to find something lying around to use, and just as her luck had been, tonight was one of them.
She continued to unsuccessfully dodge and tire the youma out. She was stuck.

As Bellatrix was cursing her luck, she noticed another. Ah, of course. Her luck proved true. Seemed like this girl didn't have such brilliant luck though.
"Bellatrix Amazon Chakram!"
A swirling discus of light went flying at the creature, cutting off a frozen section of the goop. It certainly served to get the youma's attention, however the frozen block of goop soon began to thaw and slide back over and rejoin with the creature's body.
"ummm....never seen it do THAT before,.." Bellatrix commented as she jumped down from the building to stand beside the other senshi.

Alcyone's dark nose crinkled upwards in disgust as she watched the severed limb crawl back to its owner. The scene was very reminiscent of that one horror movie with the animated slab of raw meat that inched its bloody carcass across a kitchen counter top. Come to think of it, right now wasn't the best time to remember that sort of trick.
"Ugh," was all she emitted as the arm (or was it a tentacle?) squished itself into the slimy mass and somehow, someway, re-attached itself to its rightful place. "Me neither."
The youma wiggled its appendages as though to mock them, gaping its maw into a drippy and gooey smile.
"I don't suppose you have any more of those whirling glow beams, do you? 'Cause let me tell you, I don't. I'm fresh out."
She gave another wide-eyed surveillance of their surroundings. There had to be something lying around that she could use as a make-shift weapon.

"Uh, yeah. Though last time I saw something like this, Regulus and I ended up blowing it up...." But that one hadn't been able to pull itself together, either.... Come to think of it, maybe if one of her attack hit something flammable they could blow this one up.... probably wouldn't work. Her attack only ever cut through Youma.
With each movement the youma took, it's acidic body kept chewing through whatever it touched.
"Hey! Maybe if we can break in to that building over there we can use the fire extinguisher! Maybe it's...fizzy stuff will have some effect on it!" Bell really wasn't good at this bio-chemical stuff...but it was worth a shot right?
Meanwhile the youma lunged towards Bell, not liking her idea very much. Bell let another of her energy chakrams fly-
"eeeew! ew ew ew!" Bell jumped around like the primpy little girl she was when some of the internal goo of the slime youma hit her.

She wasn't about to ask who Regulus was, regardless how much her curiosity was begging her to. Instead, she focused on the idea of an explosion.
"A...fire extinguisher? Actually, I think that might be able to work. We can throw it in its mouth, and if you could get it to explode from inside..." It would scatter and maybe even pulverize its slimy remains. Hopefully not on top of them.
The building in question looked desolate and run down, as though it hadn't been used in years. This was the one fortunate thing going for Alcyone, as the last thing she wanted to do was break into someone's private property and become the terrorist she so desperately didn't want to be defined as.
"Nevermind the goo, let's knock down that old door before the thing gets closer."
A few solid kicks should do the trick for the teaming duo.

Ewwwww goooooo in her haiiiiiiir againnnnnn~ Bellatrix was still wigging out on the inside but-
"Okay...together on 3? 1...2....3!"
The door's rusty hinges came loose from the concrete wall, and the door fell to the ground. It was dark as night inside the building, but as if by some miricle or loltastic spurr of the moment writing, there was a window from which light from a streetlamp came pouring in. That light just so happened to shine on a very familiar object - an extinguisher.
"!!Over there!"

A cloud of smoked rose to meet the desperate faces of the senshi, causing them to cough, sneeze, or at its worst: puffing up their eyelids with moisture in a deadly allergic reaction. Alcyone rubbed her watering eyes and attempted to see through the dust to no avail, and the darkness certainly didn't help. A few more sneezes were let out before she heard her team-player for the night exclaim in excitement; had she found the object they've been looking for?
Amidst a slew of coughs, Alcyone staggered close to Bellatrix and reached for her arm. "Ungh..where? I can't see it."
Meanwhile, the youma wasn't wasting any time as it slid towards the decrepit building, leaving a trail of goo at its wake. Unfortunately for it (and remarkably lucky for the duo), its raging speed could just barely pass the tortoise in the race. Regardless, it was looming, and it wouldn't take too long for it too realize that despite the dramatic size difference between itself and the broken doorway, it could squeeze right through with the same flexibility as live jell-o.

It wasn't too long after spotting the object of their search that the dust and dirt got to her. Bellatrix's eyes watered, and she sneezed several times. Blinking the worst of the dust out of her eyes, Bellatrix headed for the moonlight, for that's how everything in her bleary vision appeared - murky light and shadow.
"Over there, on the wall! You get it and I'll see what I can do to slow down this slime ball.."
Bell blinked away more of the dust, and even coughed a few times before tossing another chakram at the Youma who was slowly oozing their way.

Alcyone's body shuddered with each heavy cough while her body attempted to defeat the infiltrating dust particles and grime, though she did manage to nod her head in agreement. There was little she could do to stop the youma on her own, so the best option for her would be to locate their potential weapon ala McGyver. There were a few moments for the senshi in which she did not feel lady like in the slightest as she stumbled her way towards the filtered moonlight, fervently hoping that her new ally hadn't seen or heard her coughing up.
Dust allergies be damned.
By that point, most of the dust had settled back to their old homes to grow and fester some more. This was fine by Alcyone, as this meant that she could see a little more clearly and with any luck, she would never enter this building again. A quick scope around the room rewarded her the whereabouts of the fire extinguisher, lying forlornly against the wall. From the look of it, nobody had ever used its services before.
A hand swatted away at abandoned cobwebs and swiftly grabbed ahold of the neck, jerking it towards her petite frame. "I've got it!" She yelled, turning around to see how Bellatrix was holding up.

Bellatrix was doing what she could to keep the slime beast from following Alcyone. Chakram after chakram flew and left the Youma still for but a small while, before it would howl in anger and begin after the other senshi again.
"Hey! Stupid Youma come after me! I'm the one attacking your slimy butt!" Bellatrix shouted in frustration, but finally Alcyone had the extinguisher. "Alright! Now let's hope this works..."

The fire extinguisher swung alongside her legs as Alcyone darted to Bellatrix as quickly as she could muster. She couldn't have come at a more appropriate time, as the youma was just a few feet away and slowly inching its way towards them. Any closer and they would recoil on impact from the explosion, and any farther there was a high risk of missing the youma all together. With only one extinguisher, they couldn't afford to gamble the distance.
Alcyone locked eyes with Bellatrix. "On the count of three, I'll throw this and you'll shoot, okay?"
"One....." The youma seemed to make an effort in moving just a little bit faster than it was before, "Two...." It opened its goopy maw, slime dripping to the asphalt below them. "Three!!"
And with all of her might, Alcyone threw the extinguisher.

The Youma caught the extinguisher like a dog playing fetch. It's acidic slime began to corrode the metal extinguisher, and with what could have been assumed to be a 'gulp' the thing swallowed it,...and then there was a boom.
"Look out!" Bellatrix ducked for cover as flaming slime went flying. Wow, deja-vu. Hadn't this happened when Regulus and she had fought the last slime Youma? Well, with any luck it wouldn't get in her hair this time.

"AUGH!" Alcyone cried out in disgust. Had there been enough time for Alcyone to duck for cover between her hands flinging away the fire extinguisher and Sailor Bellatrix's chakram slicing it while inside the youma, she certainly would have. In fact, that abandoned building only a few feet away appeared tremendously inviting, but as it were, her arms crossed over her face and she looked away from the explosion as bits and pieces of what closely resembled phlegm slathered her.
An oozing puddle began to pool beneath her feet as slime dripped from her battle garments. She could hardly bring herself to move, as every motion allowed her to sense where she'd been hit, and it wasn't pleasant. Not pleasant at all.
"Well..." She began, trying her best to suppress her revulsion. "Thanks, for helping me out. I don't think I would have been able to take it out on my own."
"I'm Sailor Alcyone, by the way. I don't think we've made introductions yet...I'd shake your hand, but even I wouldn't touch me right now." It was a lame attempt at a joke, though at the very least, she tried. With the senshi of storms speaking more freely now, Bellatrix should get a faint memory jog; hadn't she heard that bright accent before?

Bellatrix finally came out of her hiding spot, and felt kind of bad that Alcyone had gotten so oozed. "It's no problem. This one was a bit different then I'm used to. I'm Bellatrix, but I guess that was kind of a given the first time I attacked,..." she gave a little chuckle. Indeed, Bellatrix was wondering about the accent, but didn't want to say anything, lest she embarrass herself.
