Melody's science class, in the middle of it's biology section, was off to the Destiny City zoo to study different animals. She wasn't sure exactly why, though they were currently studying animals in their newest chapter of their biology class, but this was her caring. Who would want to pass up a chance to go to the zoo and not have to do actual class work?
The lesson was to research animals on a list given to them, find out how ever much they could via information posted around exhibits. They were paired up in two and she had been paired with one Abeline Frost. The only issue? She knew nothing about this girl or how helpful she would be in their assignment.
Brown eyes turned to the blue-haired girl she was paired with, blinking curiously. "So.. where do you think we should start?" she asked softly, voice as gentle as ever.

Abeline hated this thing with the science and the knowledge and the study. But she had to sort of pass the subject or something. Luckily she was with Melody. Who as far as Abeline was concerned, was probably the smarter of the two. Not that it was hard to be smarter than Abe.
"We will start with the petting animals." They were cute and fluffy. and there was a goat. Of course the age of most of the people there was about a third of Abeline and Melody, but that was beside the point, Abe wanted to pet the goat. and have a pony ride.
The zoo excersusion organizers had given them all little pamphlets with all sorts of little details in them and questions about what sort of animal and food did the monkey's eat, and what made the leopard's fur spotted, and why donkey-horses couldn't breed. Abeline didn't get it, but she was hoping to get a good mark on this assignment Besides, melody looked smart. didn't she wear reading glasses or something?

As a musician, Melody wasn't too good at science either, but she did her best. And the two of them combined could- no would pass this class if the blonde Vietnamese girl had anything to say about it. And for the record, no she didn't wear reading glasses. Not yet anyway.
"Petting animals, huh?" she echoed, looking at her list. Did they even have petting animals on their list? Sure enough they did, in the form of a goat at that! Lucky for Abeline. "All right then, we'll hit them up first!" And with that the blonde moved to lead them for the petting animals first.

If Abeline were six years younger and a few degrees shorter, she would have clapped and screamed out 'yayy! I wanna ride the pony' as it was.... wait, no, she wouldn't. Stop fantasizing.
Froust nodded sharply and started out with determination and coolness toward the petting zoo. After all, it wouldn't be like Abe to show much emotion at all. Let alone childish joy. Although goats were cute, right? And she could feed it a carrot or something. Dressed in her crystal gear, with a small day backpack slung over her shoulders, Abeline was looking the very picture of an explorer heading into the wilderness of.... the petting zoo. With her stylish dark blue hair ruffling in a small breeze, and her crisp, smooth elegance, she could have made monkey's look cool. Sophisticated.
And there was the petting zoo! Abeline walked just a tiny, weeny bit faster and bent over the railing. "There are rabbits, and chickens... I don't see the goat...." A look of worry, because there was no pony and no goat. "Where is my goat, Melody?" Like it was Melody's fault that Abeline didn't get to pet the goat...

Melody found working with Abeline was refreshing and definitely something new. And she was completely and totally as excited as the other was to be heading for the petting zoo. Because who didn't want to pet cute baby animals?
Whoever said they didn't was lying.
Blonde pigtails, which had grown out quite a bit since Barren Pines, bounced as she walked and she was constantly readjusting the mini-backpack on her shoulder as it continued to try and fall. Really she was wishing that they could have worn sneakers at least, the school issued school weren't all that comfortable. And this was coming for a girl who preferred ballerina flats.
"I'm sure there is a goat around here," the Vietnamese girl soothed as she stopped beside her partner. "So don't worry, ne?" A bright smile as she pushed away to look around. "Let's go find you a goat."

"I'm not worried. It's just a goat. What kind of subpar establishment is this? Goatless and pony-less zoo. Pathetic." Abeline murmured in a totally disinterested manner. Which in Abe-speak was literally; 'where is my f**ing goat. I want a pony ride.' But Abeline usually didn't say anywhere near what she was thinking. She was the kind of girl who'd tell Pierrette she hated icecream and then eat it anyway; because... well, because wait-- Abeline was not thinking about icecream. Or Pier for that matter. She wanted a goat. Concentrate girl....
Still looking relatively fresh and unmarred by the warm day, nor the slight stench of animals, she stepped into an empty hay-strewn petting paddock.
"I think there's something in the shadows... behind the little wagon."
Something loud crunched, and a plaintive bleating sound issued from said shadowy behind. Abe gave a small self-satisfied grin. Aha! the goat was hiding back there.
This was going to end badly.

Some how or another Melody was sure that what Abeline had said was not at all what she meant. Which was probably why she was smiling in amusement when the other girl crossed into the paddock in search of her goat. No, this probably wouldn't end well but the girl would be happy so it would end well enough?
With a shake of her head, the amused smile still on her lips, the Vietnamese girl followed behind while doing her best to ignore the stench of animals. It wasn't as strong as it could be, but it was still enough to make her nose wrinkle a bit. "Be careful not to spook it, Abeline~" she called.
From the bushes near where the goat was hiding, a low growl burbled up and a stripped tail swished. The goat was hers, she'd been stalking it for some time now and she would have it. However the sudden intrusion of Star Seeds made the form's head tilt before a louder growl left it.
A meal of goat and Star Seeds, a perfect day indeed.

Abeline snorted. Like /she/ would spook the cute little goat. The goat would be all like--- cowering in a corner, making small goaty noises. And what was that swishing tail in the bushes. Abe looked down, a moment before she screamed.
Oh yes, Abeline Froust could make girly screams. The thing in the bushes it was... it was... fluffy! and clawed! and.... big gnashing teeth!
Her head knew what she was looking at, even if she wasn't as sure in her vocals. A youma. A damn youma-- was terrorizing the goat. Had the negaverse no sanctity?
"Tiger!" She stumbled back from the cage and suddenly twisted, pivoting on the spot in a graceful movement that seemed totally natural. Her backpack flying off her shoulder, she took a few steps away from the bush. "We should get out of here."

She never said she'd spook the goat on purpose, goats were naturally one of those skittish types unless you had food. At least from what she remembered. She could be wrong.
Her thought process was derailed when Abeline screamed (not something she ever thought of when Abe came to mind) and Melody found herself moving to quickly try and pull herself into the paddock instinctually. In fact she was almost over it when the other girl came rushing back towards her, leaving the blonde girl in an awkward precariousness. And lots of confusion when she said it was a tiger.
Why was a tiger lose and about in the zoo with no one chasing after it?
Said "tiger" purred loudly at the scream the girl had made, the youma licking it's lips as it rushed foreword. First the goat then the star seeds! It doubted those girls could get away fast enough.
With claws out and very sharp looking, it attacked the goat (which had run towards the girls in an attempt to get away) with such ferocity that it almost seemed the poor animal had exploded in a wide shower of blood and gore. Worse yet (though could it really get worse for the two girls who had been left to watch?) for Melody and Abeline was that the momentum and ferocity from the attack sent the goat blood and gore all over them. The youma gave a growling laugh as it licked it's claws clean and watched them.
"You look even more delicious now~"

It was like that moment in Jurassic park where the bad man got eaten by the frilly dinosaur thing. Only Melody and Abeline were the bad man (or good girls-- being that he was very big and they were very small, there should have probably been a third girl to equate the right amount of body fat--- I digress-- as the case may be,) and this was not a dinosaur but a talking tiger.
However, Abeline was done screaming. She had screamed her last girly scream- especially since screaming wouldn't help as she was in the goddamn paddock with the tiger--- the TALKING tiger. Yeah, that was a youma. And youma scared Abe a lot less than tigers. Go figure.
And so there they were, in their cute little powder blue uniforms, backpacks and maps, all dressed up with a zoo around them like adventurous--
"You lacklusture, fat-assed rabbit's b***h-" (the implication there was that the rabbit was nastier than the youma--) "of a claw-brained weasel's a*****e. My dress is totally ruined!"
It was hard to insult something that was already pretty animalistic as it got. But Abe was the sort of person to try.
"Melody, go get help, please! I am going to go David and Goliath on this thing's a**." And no, that wasn't the right reference, but this was probably not the time to go correcting her metaphors.
Abeline Froust didn't wait to see what Melody was doing- she reached for the deadliest weapon at her disposal. A shiny wand in her backpack. As luck would have it, it was /rightttt/ at the bottom. Precious minutes would tick past as she searched for it...

Melody's eyes had widened as she watched the goat practically explode all over them, a look of horror etching itself into her face. Blood... Blood all over the place and all she could think of was the death of the alien children, their blood cast on the shield that had protected them and stained the grass a horrid color that haunted her dreams every now and again.
She was so absorbed in reliving the scene her cousin would have likely enjoyed watching in a movie that she hadn't heard Abeline utter curses that would have turned her mother cross-eyed. Which was a shame, because the Vietnamese girl would have likely have found amusement in the insult (once she was done being horrified to hear such a thing come from the other girl's mouth. As it was she had barely registered hearing her name, though she had snapped out of her funk. Sort of.
Really what had snapped her out of her funk was the need to go and vomit the contents of her small breakfast some where. Preferably not covered in blood but she doubted she'd get that far.
The youma snarled at the insult, hackles raising as it moved to get into a crouching position. The result would be sort of like a spring and would launch the animal quickly at the girls. However... the animal's composure faltered as it watched the blonde dart off for a hay bin to toss her cookies.
".. You should really get that looked at kid," the youma sweat dropped.
Which of course had Melody away from Abeline and the youma was very much distracted with it's disgust at Melody's inability to handle gore and violence. Which meant that Abeline could search for what she wanted in peace. If you could call the youma teasing Melody for her retching peace.

As Melody went to throw up, Abeline found her wand. Getting bloody fingerprints all over it as she pulled it out, dropped the backpack and did a quick call.
"Cancer Zodiac Power, Make-up!" And then it was all art.
Glowing ribbons, pretty sparkles and a sudden sort of 'clean' and the very scantily clad senshi was left standing with a patch of goat-meat over one toe.
With the grace that only a senshi could hold, she leaped to the fence railing, balancing perfectly on her toes.
"Face me, and know your death!" sailor cancer declared.
She'd really liked that dress.

It's teasing of Melody paused at the transformation words, head snapping around to stare at Abeline in wonder. And then, at the sight of the Zodiac Senshi, Sailor Cancer, it was like a switch was flipped and the youma began to salivate as it's pupils pinpricked.
"Starseed... Senshi Starseeeeed..." it purred out, stretching out before crouching again. "So delicious... I must have it. MINE!" And then, it pounced.
Back behind the hay bin, Melody finally managed to calm her stomach and whimpered a bit. Why did she have to have such a weak stomach? She had missed Abeline's transformation into Sailor Cancer, having been retching too loudly to hear anything but herself. But it didn't stop her from worrying about her friend and what kind of trouble she could be in.
Reaching quickly into her bag, she pulled out her transformation pen and called out words similar to the other's. "Lacrimosa Power, Make-Up!"

Abeline fell off the fence gracefully, her body twisting in a sort of swan-dive as she spun out of the way.
Guaze and gossamer wings, she moved as though she were floating. Her body twisting in mid-air, the perfect twist. she ended up in a bow on the ground, her toes en'pointe. Her timing immpecable. A piece of goat meat still on her shoe.
The youma would have to do better.
With an arrogant smile, her hand rose and she gave it a small curl, beckoning the creature to try for another pounce.

As it missed, how the hell did it miss!?, the youma landed on all fours then barely took a second to turn around so it was facing the senshi with the very, very tasty starseed. Fur on end in it's anger, it launched itself again. This time with claws out and ready to shred the pretty little ballerina's clothes to get to the starseed.
"Hungry, so hungry. Feed me~"
