Her volleyball had long sense been lost, after hitting and ricocheting it off the large youma a handful of times it had finally flown off and down some nearby alley. The senshi of the canopy was already panting and borderline exhausted, her chest heaved and her body was screaming in discontent. But that did not mean the girl wasn't perched up on top of the bucking and flailing beast, trying hard to kick and dig her knees into it as her arms tried their damndest to keep her from being knocked off.
The youma was huge, easily the size of a fullgrown bull on super steroids. And without an actually offensive attack her fists weren't doing much to get past the creature's thick hide. Her only saving grace was that it seemed pretty stupid. Had it been any more strategic or clever Juno would have most certainly been a stain on the pavement by now.
Grunting and grumbling in choppy Porteguese, she pounded at the youma until finally her grip slipped and she was bucked off. She crashed into a car before her butt hit the ground, the plastic and metal denting from the force as she yelped in frusteration and pain.
Where was the rest of the quartet? Vesta.. Pallas.. Ceres... Where was the princess? Anyone that was more equipped in killing these things. Anyone that was supposed to be her friend and her partner. Why was it she was forced so often to go alone if she decided to do her duty of patrolling at all?
She was trying her best to get up when the creature finally noticed where she'd landed, and it scratched it's rock like hooves against the pavement before barrelling forward. After over a year of getting herself into varying amounts of trouble it seemed Juno had once again bit off more than she could chew.

Mid-stampede, something was thrown at the youma's head. It was a bit of a white blur and bounced away upon impact with relatively little damage. It would seem as if someone had found the green haired senshi's volleyball.
Sadly, the volleyball did not serve as a good enough distraction. So from the sidelines, a voice grunted out a simple "F*ck it!" followed by "Iris Rainbow RIBBON!" From where the voice had shouted, a pale ribbon of colored light rushed out towards the youma's forelegs, easily wrapping itself around the two legs. With a yank from the owner of that rainbow, it tightened up around the youma's legs.
Hopefully that would trip it up.
"Goodness, you need to be more careful!" a voice criticized from approximately the same area.

Up up up up! She attempted to will her body up from the ground her hand planting and trying to shove herself up. It was just like a fall off the uneven bars. Or a particularly bad smash into the floor. She just had to shake it off.
The white ball and the sudden rainbow were a blessing, the youma tumbling forward onto the ground as it's legs were restrained with a loud crash and roar.
It gave the senshi of the canopy long enough to right herself and reassume a defensive position, albeit with her gaze cast away from the momentarily grounded youma and towards the two voices that had saved her.
It wasn't that she wasn't grateful.. or so much that she cared about feedback or criticism. But the youma wasn't dead yet and what else could she say other than thanks?
"Yeah yeah."
"But thanks" She called out, before sprinting towards the bull-like youma, fists laced together as she brought her hands down in one swoop, attempting to get in a few good blows to the head before it could get up again.

The senshi made her way towards the youma, hand still wrapped about her rainbow. There was a half grin upon her face as she managed to catch sight of what the other senshi was doing. She was trying to pummel the youma while it was down.
If there was any senshi who could appreciate such a thing, it was Sailor Iris.
As she drew closer, she noticed the girl's green hair. This was one of the senshi that had got stuck in that youma fight from the same day as that stupid city-wide prom. Stupid stupid prom she ditched completely, then got in trouble by her mom for ditching.
Despite appreciating how quick the girl was to get back to her feet, the blonde called this whole thing as she saw it. "...Ya look like sh*t..."
The owner of the other voice seemed to remain quiet. From the sidelines, a slight jingling sound could be heard. It didn't seem as if another person had joined them, but a small tailless cat was standing, padding back and forth as the eternal senshi continued to restrain the youma and the green haired senshi worked on defeating the youma in a slightly more old-fashioned way.
...there's something about this one... something... something... something...
Green eyes were fixed upon the green haired girl.

She could feel the power level of the other girl, obviously a bit stronger than she was, perhaps a bit older too? The magic of their outfits often did a good job to disguise that kind of thing. But really she'd not paid too much attention to the vaguely familar senshi UNTIL she called out her insight.
Like s**t? It was enough to lift her head and eyes back up towards the senshi of rainbows, green eyes narrowing quizically. "Better like s**t then fruit tart!" She called back in retort, the sort of playful banter that she'd become used to from playing volleyball and other sports. You talked s**t back and forth right? That was bonding? Her right fist popped down once more on top of the struggling creature's head.
She hopped back a little as the creature flailed, trying to avoid a hoof that scrapped against the concrete trying to pull free of it's rainbow lasso.
Ugh.. she was more tired then she wanted to admit, shifting back lightly to one foot, her chest rising and falling wearily. Why was this stupid thing so strong!?

Comparing Sailor Iris to a fruit tart was ridiculously close to calling her a fruit cake, which was yet another way to call her gay. Those sorts of insults were not acceptable on any day. In a gruff snort, the blonde pointed out a potential result of the insult. "Don't go f*ckin' runnin' at th'mouth like that, or I'm gonna let yer lil' pet go!"
The yellow suited senshi had to jerk harshly at the youma's limbs as if to try to signal that she really did have a good hold of it.
"Iris, please... stop acting like the child out of this situation..." Last thing she needed was her girl being the cause of the demise of another senshi.
Carefully, the manx padded towards the green haired girl. "Sailor Juno, yes?" It was the first time ********* was meeting this girl, but she was able to pick up names with a little bit of concentration on the particular senshi. "Third Asteroid of the main belt cluster..." That part wasn't something that most people would associate with the name of Juno. ********* knew that this one wasn't her responsibility. However, there was still something about this one that seemed different.
"...what'cha goin' on 'bout, Cat?" The blonde partially heard some sort of mention of asteroids, but she didn't hear everything.
"...nothing of your concern, Sailor Iris," the manx casually dismissed before returning her full attention to Juno.
"...I might be able to help you... but only if you'd like me to, Juno. Question is, would you like my assistance?"

The words ran together. Small tidbits of words slurred one into the next, only made even more indechperable by the irritated tone. Juno had just been expecting another taunt thrown back. The little threat though, she snickered a little softly, ever so proud. "I can handle myself! ... maybe." Atleast she was honest. The monster was kind of big.
Juno had heard about cats before.. her princess after all was supposed to have one of her own, the young Diana. And perhaps she'd even seen some from a far, but she'd never actually met one.. not in this lifetime. So when the manx made her way up talking nonchalantly.. there was a bit of a double take. Where was her tail by the way?
Asteroids? Assistance? Very little of it made much sense at all. But a little help never hurt.. right? What a little cat like that could do though? That was a different question completely.
"I am a little busy yes. But help is good I guess?" The eternal senshi's help had certainly been a life saver. Really she was deadly curious what the little cat could possibly do to the big bull youma, enough so that she quit hitting it, turning her full attention momentarily towards the manx.

It had not been ********* intent to actually help in such an active manner. So when Juno stepped to the side, the feline giggled a bit.
"Oh, no no no... not like that. Give me your henshin pen for a moment... then I will tell you what to do from there!"

Her pen...? A hand lifted letting the pen pop from the magical subspace and into her open hand. She didn't really remember her awakening.. it had been awhile ago and so foggy. So what in the world the cat wanted with the pen was beyond her. But help was help.
The pen was offered quickly, her eyes turning momentarily back towards the youma. It was still down right, still stuck? She didn't really need to be blindsided with a horn through the side right now.
Juno had learned well from the past. Sharp things did not feel good lodged through your torso.

The feline only managed to get the pen up on her teeth before something behind them seemed to stir things up.
The Rainbow Ribbon was Sailor Iris' weakest attack. And with all of the struggles that the youma had put up, it had finally managed to break through the colorful light lasso. It managed to get up to its feet.
"Awwww sh*t..." Opening up the hand which had the attack in the first place, the full ribbon vanished. The blonde was not going to stick to the sidelines, and rather quickly zipped in to essentially tackle the youma along the side of its body. If anything, that would hopefully distract it.
The cat had been prepared to run with the pen in her mouth, but seeing the eternal senshi jump into the fight, she managed to relax slightly. The pen was set to the ground again, and soon enough her paws were upon the pen. Green eyes closed themselves to the world as she began to concentrate upon what was at her paws. At first, it seemed as if nothing special was happening. However, the pen began to glow beneath her paws.

She was torn.
Despite never having been told or warned of the dangers of losing her pen there was a soft tug at the idea of losing sight of the thing. Granted the other senshi and cat seemed helpful enough, definately on her side.
That was perhaps what allowed her the strength to turn away from what was going on between the paws of the cat and back towards the beast that Iris had tackled. A foot drew back and was quickly kicked forward again crashing into the large bovine muzzle.
Her next kick was a little off balance, a little weaker as a soft glow caught her attention and turned her eyes back over her shoulder. What the? What was the cat doing to her pen!?

Somewhere, one could hear Sailor Iris groan. It wasn't a groan of pain. It probably had to do with that green haired girl still insisting on fighting the youma, even when it seemed like the cat was trying to do something important.
The youma's eyes had for a moment been set on the yellow fuku, but the moment the green fuku wearing girl kicked into its snout, tis sights were back on her again. It was something that Iris had honestly been trying to avoid from the start. "Leave this sh*t t'me fer now an' deal with th'cat!" Somewhere amidst the mess, Iris gave a rather solid punch to the bull's stomach.
The manx continued to concentrate, the pen under her paws glowing and almost seeming to change shape as she continued. Eventually, the glowing began to fade, revealing that this pen had indeed changed shape.
********* eyes opened and immediately searched for Juno's eyes.
"Juno, take this and shout out 'Juno Asteroid Power, Make-Up!'"

There were words. They... might have been english? Some of them were atleast. The rainbow senshi received a quizzical look momentarily before the amazon's attention turned back to the cat. That word she'd gotten!
Her pen had changed.. not drastically enough to be unrecognizable, but there was a difference, and her eyes scrutinized it as she reached for it, before lifting it above her head.
"Juno Asteroid Power, Make-up!" She was already henshined soo.. who knew what...
For the second time of the night there was a flurry of color and heat, strange leaves and vines grasping her for a moment before everything poofed into nothingness.
Only this time... no wait.. that wasn't.. how it was supposed to be.. Her outfit had changed. Colors shifting.. things added and grown out of.. apparently nowhere. She would have been more flabbergasted if she hadn't felt it... the new energy and power coursing through her veins.. and suddenly she knew.
She was a super senshi! Like her princess! The cat had made her super!? She might have scooped up the manx in a joyous little dance if there weren't a big old bull behind her.
Instead ********* got an appreciative thumbs up for the time being, shifting on her heels back into the battle.
"Round two, big guy!" She proclaimed in a loud battle cry. She didn't have far to run, just two or three steps before she leapt into the air, pointing her heels down as gravity brought her back down onto the awaiting youma. Hopefully the other senshi didn't do something like.. get in the way!

Henshin. ********* could watch it a million times and still be amazed every time. When this girl had finished her transformation into a Super senshi, the manx merely nodded at the girl. She didn't know why, but it felt like this girl could have been one of her responsibilities, but at the same time, she knew it wasn't her place. So rather than bark out orders to Juno, her orders went to Iris instead.
"Keep out of Juno's way, Iris!"
Mid-punch, Iris was able to sense something. She definitely had been a bit preoccupied thanks to the youma, so she hadn't heard the cry of a new henshin phrase for this senshi. Instead, she only felt the aftermath of such a thing: more power.
"Ooooohhhhhhhh...." That senshi got a power boost, which meant she was now a Super Senshi.
Of course, ********* call had been heard, but did Iris really listen? Not so much. She got out her final punch before the other girl's kick made contact with the youma. It probably had to do with the punch-kick combo, but upon impact of both, the creature seemed to explode into dust.

After the tough fight it'd put up before, Juno was really very surprised to see the thing poof so quickly. Perhaps there really WAS a thing to team ups and working together. It'd worked like magic back in the day with Birhan.. and now again..
Staring at the pile of dust for only a few more seconds, the amazon didn't delay long before pivoting, lifting her hand up to her forehead in a mock salute. "Hey, thanks for that kitty!"
"That was totally awesome." Like WAY cool. Juno was half inclined to just run off and start spazzing about. See how fast she could run, how high she could jump, and otherwise abuse her magical agility.
