It had been some time since she talked to Tony about meeting up with Nate and a lot had happened in that time. A lot for all of them. Life just wasn't as simple as it use to be and truthfully the last encounter she had with Chaos was proving how much she had needed this meeting she was on her way to. Her aches and pains from that fight were mostly healed. a Few yellowing bruises were all that was left. Thankfully, despite everything going on, Tony had arranged for her to meet Nate. Properly meet him that was. They'd cross paths before she had found out about the whole senshi and negaverse thing and despite the fact that she was being chased down by a youma it had been a reasonably nice encounter. The sun had already begun to set by the time she reached the library. It was due to close for the night soon but Chay had made a point to get there early enough so Tony wouldn't need to let her in. So, pulling open the door she stepped into the building and unconciously smiled at the unique scent that only old libraries possessed. Unzipping the light pink windbreaker she worse she draped it over her messenger bag and adjusted her slightly askew t-shirt. She had come from the stables and prayed that she didn't smell too much like horse. With the weather getting warmer though she was spending more and more time with Willow. She made her way to the front desk and glanced around. There didn't seem to be a soul in the building it was so quiet. Tony had mentioned to wait there though so that's what she did. Though she took some time for some girly vanity and attempted to smooth out some of her slightly frizzy curls. Needless to say she was slightly nervous and a bit excited about this meeting.

Nathan did not exactly like being told what to do, but he did what he had to, when he knew it was important. So he told himself he was not here because his dad told him to be, but because he wanted to help. This was still his decision.
No matter how old he got, it was still important to him to be independent. Maybe it was just a stubborn streak he would never out grow, standing against his dad for simple things. Just part of being his son, he supposed.
Nate was late to the meeting, but largely on purpose. He had a reputation to maintain, after all, and being aloof was part of that.
Grinning as he walked into the library, he waved leisurely.
"Well look what we have here. Dad said you were waiting for me, and seems like he was right. I thought he was messing with me, when he asked me to come and help you train. Who would have thought. You're not going to make me carry you this time, are you?"

Time was ticking by and the young girl sighed wondering if maybe Chaonis wasn't going to show up. She turned and looked at the counter where a few odd books were still sitting. Glancing at the spines told her they weren't really anything that would particularly intrigue her. Not unless she suddenly grew fascinated with civil war history. Slightly startled by the break in silence, Chailee spun around at the sound of the voice to see a strange guy walking towards her. He seemed to know her but she wasn't all that sure who he was at first. Until, of course, he mentioned carrying her and that was the trigger for her. "No, I don't." A blush crept across her cheeks and she ducked her head a bit. "It's not like I knew what was going on back then. But uh...thank you again for that night." She smiled despite her slight embarrassment. "I mentioned to Tony that I needed training and he said you would be able to help. I, uh...I've not faired so well thus far." Chailee wasn't really sure she wanted to go into details about her near death experience or her latest defeat. Tony may have mentioned to Nate already about that night he had found her. She knew she needed help but she didn't want Nate to think of her as a helpless cause.

Nate grinned as she remembered him. It always took a little bit, with the glamour, but since he was giving her a direct hint he knew she would be able to figure it out. There were limits to what the magic could do, after all.
He laughed and shook his head, offering her a leisurely shrug.
"Don't worry about it. Clearly in the past now, right? You're apparently capable of taking care of yourself now. Well. Almost."
He powered up at that point, into the Eternal Senshi of Danger, Sailor Chaonis. He looked at her expectantly, folding his arms over his chest as he always did when he was being impatient. He felt the familiar aura of the Royal Knight on the roof, who could not help but be nearby, despite himself. It was unlikely he would make an appearance, though.
At least, Chaonis hoped he wouldn't. It was always embarrassing to have one's father drop in on a job. It was like they thought he couldn't take care of things himself. He would think Tony had a bit more faith in him than that.
Maybe.

Don't worry about it? It's hard to forget that embarrassing night. It wasn't terrible. Hardly. After all it wasn't every day that a young girl as herself got carried by a rather good looking, and older boy. Still, the circumstances of that just made her cringe inwardly in embarrassment every time she thought about it. After all, she hadn't just been saved by Chaonis. Nope. She had to go and get saved by his father, Camelot as well. She felt a bit...hopeless. Chailee stood there for a moment after Nate transformed into Chaonis. It was only after he he gave her a look that she realized he wasn't going to waste any time. "Sorry." She apologized as she scrambled to take her bag off. Throwing it and her coat on the counter she grabbed her pen and transformed in the Senshi of Harmony, Sailor Harmonia. Harmonia also noted the intense presence of the Royal Knight above them. She was still learning to sense others but Camelot was rather hard for anyone to miss. She didn't feel anyone else around at the moment though. Shyly Harmonia looked up at Chaonis white fidgeting a bit in her lack of confidence. "So uh...where do we start?"

Chaonis watched her, tilting his head to the side and giving her a lopsided, terribly cocky grin. He could not help himself, and was terribly amused by her apparent embarrassment over needing to be helped that night. Like he could hold it against her, considering how stacked against her things had been.
But if she wanted to feel bad about it, he would use that to his advantage and egg her on with it a bit more.
But he could see that she really did have a lot of hang ups about her needing to be saved, and Chaonis had heard about her run in with Camelot, as well. They all had been new once, so it was just a learning curve. Of course, Chaonis had learned quickly how to take care of himself. When he thought about it, he could remember helping a Page level Camelot before he ever knew his dad was in the war or who he was helping.
Everyone needed a hand sometimes.
"Well, we should probably go somewhere else, so I don't break my dad's day job. We should go and find something to fight. A youma. I'm good at hunting them down, we'll find something for you to practice on."

Oh no. Another youma. That was another thing Chailee didn't seem to have good luck with. Mind, her last run in did eventually end up with a dusted youma but her partner that night had walked away with injuries because she hadn't be capable. Inwardly she winced at the idea but she put on a front for Chaonis. After all, she needed to get over all of her fears and learn how to overcome these obstacles. If she couldn't be a valuable asset in the war she might as well just lock up her pen and never transform again. "Yea, I doubt Tony would appreciate us if we ruined the library." She knew very well how much Tony loved his books. Not to mention she could quite sympathize. "Um, I should warn you now that my magic isn't uh...really an attack. It's more supportive for others." After her run in with her last Youma and her partner expecting offensive magic, Harmonia felt the need to let Chaonis know so he wasn't expecting the same thing from her.

Chaonis grinned at her and offered her a sneaky wink that probably was not meant as reassuringly as he was pretending it was. He was a very rough and tumble guy and he did not take things easy, even on newbies. Especially on newbies, actually.
"Well, if your magic isn't good as an attack, we'll just have to find something it is good for. Come on."
He took off at that, running them out of the library and into the back streets of the city. It was like looking for a stray cat or something: it was usually easier to find youma around trash cans or behind bars where drunk people were wont to pass out.
Easy food targets, and all that.
It took a little while of hunting, but soon enough they found a youma. It looked like a dog of some kind, except it was much too large, and had two jaws, each one filled with teeth and seeming able to work independent of each other.
"Well, look at this cutie," Chaonis said, a grin still on his face. He looked at her and then nodded his head toward the youma. "Hop to it. Better stop that thing before it hurts someone, right?"
And he would help. Kind of.

Harmonia smiled a bit at his wink but she wasn't all that sure that he could find something that her magic was good for except the exact purpose it existed. Either way she was willing to give all of this a shot so when Chaonis took off out of the Library Harmonia was right behind him. She struggled to keep up at times but managed behind the Eternal senshi. As they moved through the streets glancing up alleyways, and behind places she expected, and mostly only found stray cats they finally came across their youma for the night and Harmonia cringed at the sight of it. It wasn't the worst she had seen, true, but it still caused her to flinch slightly at the damage her imagination pictured those jaws doing. What shocked her the most though was Chaonis's words. She stood there and stared at him for a moment. Is he serious? I thought he was going to train me not throw me into a fight. Sure, it wasn't like he was pitting her against a Nega agent or anything, but still... This was daunting enough for the poor senshi. With her lack of skill and confidence right now this seemed like an incredibly awful thing to do to her. But, she didn't question him outright. Taking a deep breath she cautiously stepped towards the creature but stopped there. Unsure how to even attack it. The dual teeth filled mouths seemed to glare at her as she raised her hands into fists in front of her and attempted to gulp down her fear. I can do this. I can do this. I can do this. She chanted in her head as she waited to see what the youma would do.

Chaonis watched her, expecting to see an interesting display, though he was not quite as sure about her ability to perform as he had been getting there. Most of the time, Senshi, even newbies, rose to the challenge of a real threat.
That was why he did not just spar with others. If he wanted to see how they really worked, he had to find them a real enemy or they would just hold back the whole time.
Or at least use that as an excuse as to why they do poorly.
He watched and sighed, noting she was waiting to be attacked. If that was what she wanted, he could certainly help. He charged forward, but did not move to attack the youma. Instead, he shoved Harmonia from behind in an effort to send her stumbling into the youma, which would in turn incite it to attack.
To make things a little more interesting.

Harmonia was so focused on the youma in front of her that she wasn't paying much mind to Chaonis and when the shove came she took two steps forward before falling right down on her face. It would have been comical to anyone watching at the time as she flailed to try and catch herself and failed miserably. Chaonis's strategy got the reaction he wanted from the youma though. The dog-like beast growled threateningly at Harmonia before lunging forward at her. The girl's eyes flew wide at the attack and she did the only thing she could think of and rolled to the side, just barely missing the youma's attack. She could smell it's foul breath as it snapped at her as she rolled away. In fact, she barely had enough time to get to her knees before it was after her again. A small cry escaped her as she pushed herself out of the way again and scrambled the rest of the way to her feet, never taking her eyes off of the creature. How the heck to I fight it. Those mouths will rip me to shreds if I just try and punch it head on. With gaping maws, the youma glared Harmonia down, snarling at her before charging again. Harmonia side stepped it and tried to kick out at the creature but only managed to graze it's back-end as it charged past her. Well...that didn't work...

Chaonis stepped back and let Harmonia take the attack that was launched at her. She was the easier target, after all, so he was not surprised that the youma would focus on her. Animals in the wild picked off the weakest target in a pack, right?
He folded his arms and watched her, shaking his head.
"Better think quicker than that," he called, as she missed her kick, "or that thing is going to have you for dinner. You need to be able to think on your feet, and if you don't have magic that can help you, then use your damn head. Or whatever's around you. Make your body a weapon and you'll never be caught at a disadvantage."
He made no move to help her, though.
"Those legs look pretty spindly, don't they?" he hinted, with a teasing tone in his voice. This was pretty fun for him, which was not surprising considering he was not the one in the middle of the fray right now.

If Harmonia was more prone to anger she would have cursed Chaonis right then and there. However, the girl was a too gentle for that and her gentleness was showing in her complete lack of fighting abilities. As much as she had been excited about being a senshi and helping out in the war she was not the most able soldier. "I am trying." She said as she dodged another attack. Hell, if all she had to do was dodge this thing she'd be alright. It was fast but not so fast that getting out of it's way was impossible. "I just don't know what I am doing!" Despite her words she looked around the alley for something that might help. The whole places was littered with trash bins and the garbage within them. Not seeing anything else Harmonia ran over to one of the small metal cans and grabbed a lid. As the dog thing rushed at her again she swung downwards with her new found weapon and just barely missed the creature as it jumped away from her. Pleased with this reaction she tried again to smack the creature but failed the second time as well. It wasn't until he indicated it's legs that she thought to throw the lid. It skidded across the pavement and managed to hit the creature as it moved towards her again, it's front paws getting knocked out from under it. "Yes!" Harmonia grinned at her successful attack and rushed forward to try and land another blow with a swift kick to its' side. The youma wwasn't done though and snapped at her as she neared. Her little attack had managed to bruise the youma but not do anything serious to it. I can't just keep throwing trash cans at it!And she looked around again for another weapon when her eyes landed on Chaonis who looked quite content to just sit by and watch the battle. That was when the idea came to her. Well...he told me to use my head... So as the youma began to charge her again, instead of dodging out of it's way she ran towards Chaonis using her magic on him in the process. "Energy Link!" If I can get this thing to leap at me maybe Chaonis can give it a good punch or kick on the side and avoid it's teeth! Harmonia was putting her trust in Chaonis for this one. As she neared the Eternal senshi Harmonia moved tot he side, enticing the creature to attack her by remaining completely opening and praying Chaonis would get the hint of what she was doing. Lithiasaur Harmonia links up with another person and helps increase their strength/power by 15% and will work better as a team (ie: predict each others movements). Duration -- 20 seconds for 4x in a battle Avoided -- Link can be broken by physically attacking Harmonia Cons -- Cannot power herself up.

"That is NOT what I meant!"
Chaonis felt her magic in a strange way. He was used to getting magic boosts, as his own magic provided him with a boost of strength and speed, but it was usually not because of someone else linking with him. He was not sure how he felt about that, the lone wolf that he was.
At least in battle. These days, he was more like a puppy in his personal life.
"Ugh I guess that was pretty clever," he said, noticing her as she moved to the side and understanding what she wanted him to do. If he was not linked to her, he might have had an easier time being stubborn and pretending he did not know what she was doing.
And he didn't know the method of breaking the link, so he just moved to help her. After all, she had technically listened to him, so he had to give her some props for that. Mentally, at least. Maybe not out loud.
He pulled his fist back and leaped at the youma without an ounce of fear in him, swinging hard with all his strength and smashing a devastating blow to the youma's face. At least one of its jaws made a cracking sound from the contact.

As Choanis's fist collided witht he Youma's jaw a very dog-like whimper escaped the creature as the sound of cracking bone echoed in the small alley. It backed off from the two senshi as it moved to nurse its wound. "Ha! Yay! That worked!" Harmonia grinned and hopped a bit in delight as her magic faded away from the two of them. "See, helping me wasn't all that bad." She gave Chaonis a look before rushing back over to the youma that looked far from pleased and actually a bit intimidated despite the growls coming from its uninjured jaw. Witha bit more confidence now, Harmonia approached the creature cautiously and as it tried to snap at her again. Carefully she moved to so that she was to it's side, ts eyes never leaving her. Taking a deep breath she ran in and kicked out at it. She made contact and sent the creature to the ground on its side. OK, maybe I -can- do this!
