Welcome to Gaia! ::

Now that Daphne had started running again, with the weather warming up, she was out on the streets constantly. Often she was powered up. It was more what she was used to, from back when she would sneak out of lessons to go running through the savanna. She'd always used her powers for an extra boost of speed and adrenaline, back then.

It might count as dangerous here, with Chaos around every corner and even the people of Earth not used to seeing people from other worlds, but Daphne didn't care anymore.

She wanted to feel the wind rushing through the fur of her tail.

Only, then she felt something else.

Chaos.

She rounded a corner and she saw the person in black, standing over someone who looked like they were sleeping.

A wave of disgust washed over her. "Stop," she said, already rushing forwards and kicking.

This man, like the other one, seemed so surprised that she'd kicked him for taking energy. He seemed so offended.

Daphne stopped attacking as he yelped and crumpled. She stood there, still, even breaking her stance to put her hands on her hips, although she did puff out her cheeks in annoyance when he called her mean.

"You are doing something," she said, doing what she could to keep from sounding too aggressive about it, because it was possible that he truly didn't understand. Unlikely, since his aura was strong enough he probably had some experience, but she would try to give him the benefit of the doubt. "You're taking energy that doesn't belong to you. That's sketchy."

The other human had responded well to the word sketchy, so hopefully this agent would, too. Although, as she blinked down at him, she didn't think it sounded quite strong enough. "On top of that, it's wrong."

A moment passed. "But, if you stop doing it, I will not fight you any more."

Taking someone's energy might not directly hurt them, but it did leave them vulnerable, and even though Daphne had only been here for a few months, she could tell that the streets were dangerous and that being vulnerable was not good.

She wasn't going to have to rub that in with this one, though. She could already see the guilty look in his eyes, and he was already offering to leave.

Maybe once she learned more about the Negaverse, and how Chaos worked on Earth, and where the energy went, she could ask for something more, but as it was, there was not. He said he would be back in the future, and it wasn't like she was going to threaten or hurt him more to see if she could stop that.

That would truly be cruel.

Then there would be reasons for people to cry when they saw her, or to get angry, and while she wanted more than anything else to stop Chaos, she did not think she wanted that.

"Fine. Leave for tonight," she said, and she was already sitting down cross-legged on the pavement, to watch over the sleeping victim for a while.
