Maia frowned at how very late it was, but was infinitely happy that for now, it was youma free and negabaddie free. It had been a lax a patrol and Maia sorely needed one or two of them more often. The bruise from last week battle was only just fading and Maia was just happy that the sting had left her backside!
Maia walked on down the paved street past the closed school and slipped down an alley, making quick work of it twist and turns and heading for the spot where her brother would pick her up. It was quite a ways off and she could not risk powering down for fear she'd be attack before she made it to the meeting spot.
Maia walked so quickly, she hardly noticed the loud rythmic clicking of her boot on the pavement. It had always been something that annoyed her about her senshi outfit, but unfortunately she couldn't trade in her fuku, until she upgraded and she thought it was likely that he shoes would not change much, well not as much as her fuku.
Click, click, click, click, was the main sign that came in quick succession down the alleyway, as she turned and slipped around another corner and into yet another alley. The quickest way, unfortunately had to be the way that made Maia most nervous and distracted. Her mind was focused, but unfortunately it was on one thought.

Unfortunately for Maia, she had walked into the wrong alley. Fortunately, for Euterpe, it was a senshi who walked into that ally. At the end of the alleyway, there seemed to be some sort of scuffle going on. One could ignore it, assuming it was a civilian fight of drunken men except for the young blond guy in white and a massive youma rat.
Honestly, it was a giant rat.
Euterpe was fighting with the rat, himself on the bottom with a pipe in between the rat's gaping mouth, the rat tackling him on top, struggling to close it's mouth on the struggling male's arms but frustratedly finding itself stopped by the metal instead, red eyes glowing fiercely in anger.
Meanwhile, Euterpe hadn't even gotten a good moment to attack, struggling not to get rabies from the sewer-infested youma rat. (This rat was a host of at least a hundred new diseases that Euterpe definitely did not want to catch. This was why he didn't bring home random chicks from the street to sleep with. Although it wasn't as if the idea hasn't occurred to him, really.)

Maia turned the corner and heard more than saw the scuffle around mid-alleyway. She squinted into the darkness, trying to figure out just what was going on. It did not feel right and despite the late hour she could not in good conscience walk off. She sighed and moved further down the long alley until she could see what was really happening.
The sight made her freeze as though she was under the effect of her own attack, as she gazed upon the man eating, rabid looking rat. Maia urge to heave up her dinner was only keep in check by her inability to move. The thing was totally wild, truly disgusting, and obviously mad.
Maia forced her hand down from her mouth wondering when they'd gotten there and frowned. The rat was obviously a youma and she was a senshi, so she had to help, no matter how her mind screamed at the idea. She was going to help and bare the consequence of not feeling clean for the rest of eternity.
Maia came forward a bit more and her frown deepened at the realization that she could not use her attack without hitting the other. She did know hoa her attack would effect him and she did not want to risk him going limp and finding himself face full of immobile rat.
Maia was at a loss, so she did the only thing she could think of. "Try to hold still I am going to get it off," she shouted and took off at a run straight for them. Once she was close she leapt and attempted to kick the rat hard in the side.

The rat squealed in pain, finally it's claws withdrew from the musical scout below, hitting the wall from the force. It wasn't dead nor defeated yet, simply stunned. But that was all Euterpe needed to get away from the disease infested-rat, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
"I used my attack and it went crazy-- You got an ace up your sleeve? Don't disappoint, stranger, you're going to get a hell lot more than rabies if he sinks his fangs into you." Euterpe warned, picking up a metal pipe to (preferably) bash it's head in.
Euterpe loved animals. He crossed the line at rats that mauled one to death. His plans for the day hadn't been to end up on the autopsy table-- it was to sing woo the bar girl by singing "Love Story" by Taylor Swift. He was sure this time it would work.
Unfortunately, due to this incident, he wouldn't make it in time for the end of her shift.

Maia grinned dropped beside the boy, happy to see her legs still had it despite her ballet lessons and ice skating be cut considerably.
The boy was speaking and Maia frowned when he said the boys attack made it go crazy. She wondered if that meant it was less prone to attacks, but she really did not have time to think about it. She had to do something.
"My attack is defensive she said, but I think it should be just what we need. I can make the youma unable to move, but only for a minute," she said in a single breath.
Maia took up her position ready and poised to attack. She nodded to the boy and waited for him to get into position. "Ready," she asked softly.

Euterpe gave the metal pipe a few swings, nodding in confirmation to the other scout. She was a scout-- that much he knew. Sure, her uniform seemed really different from the last ones he met but as long as she wasn't trying to steal his starseed, he was good.
A minute was all he needed.
"Let's get started." Although Euterpe didn't think the power rangers ever had to fight a giant rat, he would settle for a giant rat over a giant mutating monster with lame catchphrases. Somebody had spiked this rat's sewage trash just a little too much.

Maia turned, at the nod, to face the youma. She had only stunned the creature, but she could see its beady eyes and she did not want it getting up to attack her.
"Sweet Harmony," she called out in a sing songy manner. The music filled her quickly and she sang the noted resonating from her mouth with ease.
Beautiful opaque rainbow colored notes formed before her, more with each note she sings. They flew toward the youma, surrounding the rat, bursting as they came into contact with it. It was very pretty to watch, despite the end result basically being immobility.

A music based one? That was interesting--- Euterpe had never met a sphere that closely resembled his before! So senshi sphere could be similar after all. Tucking this information in the back of his head, he was reminded of how he really hated this senshi role.
If it meant that pummeling giant rats was on his schedule, it wasn't a good thing. Several moments afterwards ensued with metal pipe meeting rat brains. This scene might have made some civilians want to barf but Euterpe had long gone past the boundaries of "disgusting," casually throwing the pipe in a trashcan afterwards, stained with blood and other substances that was better off left unidentified.
Euterpe's outfit wasn't stained but the bottom of his shoe was-- with a grimace, Euterpe was trying to wipe some substance from his boots on a sharp corner of a trashcan, nearly forgetting that another senshi was there.

Maia watched the other senshi literally beat the rat youma to death and sighed wishing that being a senshi did not have to be so violent, but feeling relieved that she was becoming slowly less sensitive to it.
She watched as he threw the pipe away after the youma was destroyed and attempted to nugde dirt off his shoe with a trash can. She sighed shaking her head slightly before approaching him.
She pulled a small handkerchief from her top and handed to him. "Use this," she said smiling, though it was dark, she was close enough for the smile to be scene.
"I tend to be attacked by mud youma's so I started to carry these around," she said laughing light, "It helps with the clean up. I do not really care for the mess."

"Oh, thanks." Euterpe took the offered item, assuming that the other knew she probably wasn't getting it back. .. Not a handkerchief with rat intestines and who knows what on there. "I was in a slight pinch but you really know how to help a guy out. Thanks to you, I'm not a human slug." Euterpe referred to the fact that slugs were one of the most disease-infected hosts on earth, parasites attaching to them in the dozens.
".. Who are you, anyways?" The thought occurred to him late, turning towards her, shoe still on trashcan. "Wait.. no. I got it. ....Jigglypuff?" He guessed, his tone strangely absolute, as if he fully expected the other to be named after a pokemon.
In his defense, parents often named their kids after superheroes.

"Your welcome," said Maia grinning when he compliment of knowing how to help someone out. It amused her even though she did not really get the whole slug part, save for maybe them not doing much of anything, which he would be like if he'd lost his star seed.
When asked who she was, Maia was a bit wary and did not want to give out her name nor her sphere, but then she was thrown off by his statement of being Jigglypuff. Confusion was written all over the girl's face, she had no idea what Jigglypuff was or what it had to do with her.
"Er, no not Jigglypuff," she said sounding unsure, "I do not think that is a celestial body, but I guess I would not be surprised if it was."
Maia relaxed a bit and held out her hand, "I am Sailor Maia, Senshi of Song. You would be?"

"I'm Euterpe. Music's my forte! A pleasure to meet you. Song huh?" Euterpe thought the sphere fit just right.. just like jigglypuff! He sincerely thought it was a disappointment that the other was not named Jigglypuff and if it had to be a celestial body for it to be a name then astronomers should certainly add it to the list.
"Sorry if I don't shake your hand. Rat guts aren't something I'd like to share-- At least, not until I take a shower in disinfectant." He sniffed his scarf, face grimacing. Even if he hadn't gotten AIDS or other STD's from the rat, he didn't escape unscathed. "Plus I'm not the guy who goes for handshakes really. More like.. high fives?" Euterpe let his hands fall to his sides, flexing them experimentally, cringing inside.
No, manners weren't on the top of his list at the moment.
(Shall we wrap this up in a post or two? <33 Euterpe will probably go home and take a looooong shower.))

Maia gave a huge smile at her luck. This boy was the senshi of music. Maia was amazed she had not thought she would meet another senshi whose sphere was closely related to her own, but it had now happened twice.
Her smiled faded to a look of displeasure when he spoke of rat guts and she pulled her hand away. "That is quite alright. I understand entirely and would much rather be rat intestine free. I think kicking the creature was quite enough for me. I desire a shower as well."
Maia gave a polite smile, "We should be on our way then. Let's not keep those nice hot showers waiting, but first." Maia summoned her senshi cellphone, opened it, and held it up to the other. "I'm just gonna get you senshi cellphone number," she said pushing scan, "and done."
Maia was the queen of getting senshi cellphone numbers. If she met you, then she scanned you in. One never knew when they might need a bit of help.
She turned away and headed down the alley she had originally intended to take. Looking over her shoulder she called with a grin, "I will be calling you soon Mr. Music. I would really like to see what your attack does. Its only fair." With that she ran off down the alley and around the corner disappearing from sight.
