Should he be wandering onto the training grounds? Maybe not the best of ideas given the current string of weather and storms slamming into the island. But, he was there for no really apparent reason. Sort of random, like compelled in a way. Or maybe just antsy and wanting to get out, no longer wanting to feel like a shut in. And a displaced one at that, with the basement flooded and all. That was dreadful, and after he had finally gotten some awesome toku toys to boot (he had saved them, lost a magazine though and had to let the others dry out. A lot of clothes were still damp.).
Milo liked to think he had been through worse though, or at least through similar circumstances having grown up on an island in the middle of the ocean that often saw such weather patterns. Hell, a lot of times growing up it was favorable to see the wind and rain. Made riding the waves just better, but he wasn't near the beach today. Nope. Training grounds. Maybe he'd have it all to himself today. Maybe he could even practice some posing too. Awesome.
< This is stupid, you're going to kill yourself ... or get yourself sick ... > Koume protested. Nothing new though, always seemed to be able to find a reason to complain.

It was then that the Death lead was seen wandering through the training fields, and by wandering it one-hundred percent meant sauntering. He paused as he reached Milo and just stopped. And stood there. And possibly stared-slash-glowered with some minor arm crossing.

"Naaah, I'll be fine ~" And Milo would have gone into the full swing of things too, if it weren't for that sort of feeling you get when you realize you're not alone. Or you're not sure if you are at least because you could have sworn you also heard the soft sounds of sauntering upon the damp ground. Not that he minded, but he wanted to check. And well, say hello.
So before he actually managed to summon his weapon, Milo turned his head about slowly to see if there was in fact someone there. And there was. Oh, hey. It was that guy. From that place that one time. Or well, those few times; like in the cafeteria, he sent them to the sahara and that time when they woke up in the classroom. No, Milo didn't really have a name. But he knew of the guy's position.
He was like a Doggie Kruegar or a Zordon. High up. But just a little more... intimidating. And kind of reminded him of when Urataros possessed Ryotaro. Still. "Oh hey," he waved once in greeting before deciding to close the distance between them. "Don't think we've formally met. Milo Hale, Sun division." He introduced himself, just like he would anyone else. With a hand out and of course a stupid looking smile.

That guy paused-
- And then appropriately shook Milo's hand. Another pause. "Nice day we're having isn't it."
Just minutes ago it had been flash-rain pouring.
"I have a great idea," continued That Guy, "you should come rescue me."

Sporadic rain was also fairly common where Milo was from, but as he took a moment to respond to the idle bit of small talk that That Guy had opened with and glance skyward did he realize maybe this was a bit unusual. It had been raining for the past few days, terribly so and now... not so much. Kind of the reverse, sporadic sunshine was more like it. Still, "better than it has been the past few days, ya?" He chuckled as he pulled his hand back to loosely cross his arms over his chest.
"Rescue you?" Milo repeated, curious really with a slight narrowing to his eyes, "well, yeah if you ever need it I'd be more than happy to help." That phrasing seemed odd though....

"Yes absolutely." The Guy with extremely amazing well-kept and silky hair said in a spectacularily monotone voice, "You should absolutely come rescue me. You wont abandon me like the others will you?"
As he said this, The Guy Who Everyone Was Avoiding Eye Contact With for some reason began to bodily drag Milo across the field until they hit a rather unique training course. Unique was one way of putting it as the artificial ditch paved had turned into a swamp, for some reason several pairs of unfriendly creature eyes stares from beneath the water, and in the very center of the moat was a beat-down tower made entirely out of plaster bricks.
"Whee!" Shouted the Guy Who suspiciously did not sound like who they looked like, and jumped right into the moat. There was some bubbling and in a strange stroke of luck, the appeared right on the island in the center of the moat, and then sat down on a rocking chair that was also in the center of the island in the center of the moat.
"Now come rescue me! I'm a princess!" This shout was sort of faint due to distance. chirigami SWAMP TEST COURSE NAVIGATION: - the water is full of dangerous creatures! Milo must make it across the water to rescue this figure! They will shout helpful things like "Save me I'm a princess!" And "All you need to do is believe in me!" - As you get into the water, the dark creatures that lurk underneath catch sight! They start chasing you! Roll 1d6. Every roll counts as 10m. You must swim 50m to get to the island (5 rolls!) - Each time you roll a 1 or 6 you take -5 HP. - Each time you roll a 2, something snags your leg and you have to restart again! - Each time you roll a 3, subtract 10 HP - If you roll 4 or 5 you are safe!

"Left you? Dude, that blows." Milo sounded actually appalled, not even trying to fit in an upbeat tone in there. Because abandoning people did not sound cool at all. That just wasn't the Power Ranger way, hell, some teams even tried to save the bad guys from horrible fates. "Course not." Though, he was still a little confused about the tenses being used.
Or not as much when he was physically dragged towards a pit. That just transformed before his eyes into something more as soon as That Guy jumped right on it. "Aa, so right now, ya?" Milo stood there for a moment, his brows up in surprise with a mix of confusion. Could have sworn this guy was more of a hardasss... he thought to himself. The excited shout and princess declarations weren't what he remembered, though he had only encountered That Guy twice before; there was a lot more cursing and anger those times. Complete one-eighty. Should he be suspicious? Or maybe this was all apart of this exercise.
"Aa, dude, this must be a test or something?" Milo then asked, though he sounded actually a little giddy himself. Even began stretching out his arms. "Like when the rangers need to find themselves or gain some awesome new ability." If so, this was sounding pretty awesome. Of course he would do it.
So, Milo jumped in and immediately got like attacked by something.

But Milo kept on going in in quest to rescue The Princess That Was That Guy, because that was the Ranger Way. He wouldn't give up, he would swim his hardest!
And then got attacked once again. Ow.

Summoning his weapon seemed like it would have been an awfully good idea to help him get across and to fend off the creatures that were chasing after him. Actually, this was what Koume was yelling at him about and damned her inability to just manifest herself while her idiot partner swam. Because that's all Milo seemed to be concentrating on. Swimming.
At least he managed to not get struck this time.

Once again, the creatures of the deep pulled and lashed into his leg. Not as badly as the first two attempts to stop him on his quest. But still enough to dig deeply into his field shield, which was suffering enough as it was.
But the brunet still kept going, determined to not fail.

Fifty meters wasn't too bad of a swim under normal circumstances, it was the length of a standard Olympic sized pool. But, obviously this wasn't the case because of creatures. Angry dangerous ones because that's apparently just how this island was. (Ones that could have easily been taken care of if he just summoned his damn weapon, Koume would have liked to add. Angrily).
Milo found himself out of breath and a little shaky by the time he finally got himself across and in the clear (for now), pulling himself from the depths and onto the shore that housed that broken tower and The Princess Who Was That Guy Sitting on a Rocking Chair. But the sensation was able to pass thanks to the now steady ground under him and a deep gulp of air that had no possible consequences of bringing in water. The Sun was able to get to his feet, not without his hands shooting upward in triumph with a whooping, "Yeah!" Spraying bits of water everywhere while he was at it.
"That all to the rescue? Or do I gotta do more?" Milo turned to the figure.

"You did it!" Shouted That Guy, who had finished manicuring his nails and had somehow in that time span changed into much more fitting gear. They did their best attempt to jump into Milo's outstretched arms, which didn't work out so great, so the result was something like their arms interlocked hanging tightly around Milo's neck while the rest of them tried to drape against his chest with varied results. "Oh, fair knight, I, princess Caelius, have been rescued! Free me from these shackles and let us find a castle!"
They put a hand to their forehead for emphasis, hair billowing in the wind under their cone-shaped hat.

Okay, maybe now Milo was a little more suspicious about That Guy. Mostly because of the sudden change of clothing. Logic would have concluded that maybe it was on this small island and That Guy had simply put it over what he was previously wearing in the span it took the Sun to reach it. But no. Milo was thinking about henshin devices and how they didn't seem to exist here except in the case of transforming weapons so where did the clothes come from?
The question didn't get asked, they usually didn't. Something usually happened and this time it was That Guy draping himself, making Milo's knees wobble and nearly buckle from the sudden latching. He wasn't prepared for a catch and tried really hard to play it smooth and recover in a heroic fashion. "Of course, hime ~" Luckily he didn't try like a seductive voice or anything, just his usual dorky excited one. And promptly dipped them a little further to the ground, gaining a little leverage to hoist the 'Princess' all bridal style. 'Cause it was totally heroic and all.
Wait, were there really shackles? "Aa, so to that tower, ya? Saw one kinda when we got here." So, Milo turned to the direction (Princess and all, swishy dress) where he had seen it.

"Lead the way Fair Knight for I will follow!" Encouraged, the princess, pointed a random direction that just happened to be the Deus dormitories. Its legs very obviously dangled very close to the ground despite Milo's best efforts, long sparkling tresses of dress flowing in the wind. The probably looked dramatic. Probably.
chirigami Milo now has a follower which he can bring to dorm prps all IC day. Princess Caelius will follow Milo all day, the only thing it is capable of saying is "I am a princess!" And "save me fair knight for I am a princess!" - also it looks like that guy so have fun.
