Gault was leaping, back flipping, front flipping, and cartwheeling from roof to roof, giggling the entire time. If only he had someone else to try this with…Maybe he could look into finding a buddy or two? That seemed like a good plan for him! He skidded to a halt when he landed in the skate park, feeling some sort of weird thing. He couldn't describe it but it just felt…Off, not right, almost like he should use caution. His gaze caught sight of a girl [or at least he hopped they were a girl] dressed strangely. The feeling that he felt was coming from her? Weird….
Approaching cautiously, the senshi called out, “Hey! Are you a senshi as well? Why are you out here by yourself?” Granted he had no right to judge, if she wanted to be out and alone at night, who was he to question or stop her? He did still wonder what train of thought led to this, especially since Destiny City can be pretty dangerous at night. “I'm Gault, got powers over onions! What do you have?”
-----
Sahara felt the others aura coming toward her, she was in the process of draining someone, but released them and watched them stumble away as the order aura was headed right for her.
She looked when the other called out to her and frowned lightly at all the questions he seemed to have. She didn't answer him preferring to not say anything at all and raising an eyebrow at the introduction at first.
"I'm Taaffeite and I'm a little busy at the moment. I have a quota to fill and I'd like to get some sleep tonight, so I'll be going now."
-----
Wait what?!
Energy draining?
Wasn't that?....
Oh….
Gault huffed and raised an eyebrow, “Look I can't let you go, not if you're draining energy! That is a bad thing, you know?” He readied his stance just in case she was going to try something he didn't like. “Why can't you chaos people get your energy from animals or something? Why does it have to be humans?” That's not to say he didn't care about animals, it would just make things easier and he was sure an animal could recover faster.
-----
Taaffe paused, sighing and looking over her shoulder at the senshi. “Dude I really do not have time for this and who is going to run around trying to catch animals in the middle of the night, plus it's not like there are just tame houses running around.”
She gave him a pointed look, she wasn't even sure it was possible, but what she did know was if it was possible most animals weren’t going to have enough to fill the quota.
“Now as I was saying, I’ll be going.”
She started walking away again, choosing to ignore the senshi’s words.
-----
Well….At least he tried to be nice.
Gault sighed and got as close as he dared, "I can't let you go, I'm sorry." He lifted up his hand and snapped his fingers, "Crying shame…." He was so glad he was immune to the effects of his power, watching as the fumes started to roll in and rise. Hopefully this would keep the negaverse woman from trying to escape.
-----
Taaffe was more than a little annoyed at his insistence that he couldnt let her go. She spun around looking more than a little aggravated, “... if you dont mind,” she started to shout but the idiot in front of her decided to use magic.
She frowned, backing away as quickly as she could from the fumes, the familiar smell of onions filling the area like a crowd full of sweaty people. Tears pooled in her eyes and ran down her cheeks making it look like she was crying while she tried to get out of range of the attack and covered her mouth to keep from inhaling it.
She turned once she was out of reach of his magic, her fist balled up and clearly more than ready to knock his block off.
-----
Gault was mildly entertained given this was the first time he's tried his magic on one of the bad guys in this city. Maybe she would take him more seriously now. He walked through the fumes, fully prepared to subdue the agent. He wasn't one for conflict so maybe she would behave and then he could just let her go, hopefully not wanting to take anymore energy for the night. Hell, if she wanted to stop doing these awful deeds for the rest of her life he would be okay with that too. He spotted the angry look in her eyes and shook his head, “I mean I did ask nicely at first, not my fault you chose not to listen.” He shrugged but kept his guard up.
“Are you going to stop now? Really don't want to fight you.”
-----
“No, I’m not going to stop. What’s wrong with you idiot, mind your own damn business,” she shouted pretty mad at the stupid senshi. She ground her teeth and tried to curb the desire to make the senshi eat his own words. After a moment she grinned at him and pulled out a communicator sending out a signal.
“Villon,” she said in a shaky voice, “I'm in a bit of a tough situation, this senshi is being relentless and he wont let me be.”
She smirked, putting the thing away and marching up to the senshi with a smile, “one two Villon’s coming for you …”
She grinned and headbutted him hard before stumbling back. She raised both her hands and smacked her cheeks hard to redden them and gave him a scared look.
-----
Gault did not like that grin at all, so when she pulled out a communicator, his face lost just a bit of color. This was because he did not have anyone that he would call for backup on his end, which seemed a bit unfair to him. “Hey now look--!” Before he could get a word in, instant pain was all he could manage to think about. “s**t s**t s**t! Owwwww!” There was a nice little red spot on his forehead, he could feel the rhythmic thump thump thump of throbbing and he somehow just KNEW he was going to have such a bad headache to nurse once he made it home.
When he saw the tiny female slap her cheeks together, he started to question…Why the creepy? There was another chaos signature fast approaching, causing the confused senshi to stiffen. That scared look on her face was giving him time to flee vibes so he started to back up. “I did not!----” He bumped into something hard and solid, swallowing. How did that signature get here so fast? He looked up to see A crazed pair of blue eyes staring down at him, some sort of dark thing that was beginning to……Yeahhhhh NOPE! The senshi quickly moved away, and the corrupt simply tilted his head.
-----
Taff was lucky Villon was already out.
He was rather close by when he received her message, making his way as fast as he could. He was bored and always up for a little game with the light. So when he saw the look on Taff’s face, he had to admit that she was good. He already knew that she could hit people with her skateboard so he wasn't too worried about her being hurt. But he supposed he could play along, no one said he couldn't tenderize his food before eating right? When the little light bumped into him, he was reminded of another tiny menace that he fought not too long ago. Before the thing could get too far away, he grabbed the boy by the collar, spitting one of his inky tentacles directly onto his face.
-----
Gault was not prepared.
The moment the black s**t hit his face his pupils began to expand, almost taking over the entire eye. W-Why was he here?! Where did the officer go? What?! A tall lanky thing with long white claws and a brightly colored rainbow afro started wobbling towards him, deflated balloons in hand. “N-Nnnnoooo stay away!” The onion senshi started running then, damned near screaming when the creature started going faster, blood leaking from it's orifices.
-----
Villon watched with amusement as the little light started running for his life. He was tempted to go after him but he was technically Taffys prey so he wanted to see what she would do now that he’s done his part. He looked to her with a raised eyebrow.
-----
When Villon raised a brow at her she realized he saw right through her, she smirked widely and hopped up dusting off her skirt and giving him a smile. “Thanks for the assist, you must have been super close.”
She turned and gave a somewhat feral grin and pulled her skateboard from subspace tossing it on the ground and taking off after the senshi. He was fast, but with her board there was no getting away. She didn't bother trying to hit him with the board, she balled up her fist and let the board’s moment do the jumping and punched him right in the back as her board glided by.
Oh course she tumbled to the ground, but she stood up and went over to the senshi kicking the other as hard as she could before turning away. “Next time, you should leave well enough alone. I'm the type to get even.” She grinned and went to pick up her board.
“Patrol with me Villon, this idiot put me behind.”
-----
Gault did not know what hit him, and he went down hard, he did try to take a more protective stance to make sure none of his vital organs would be hit. The kick hurt but he was glad to be protected from it, eyes fluttering closed. The last thought being how much he really didn't like the opposite side. Perhaps it was time to make friends….
-----
Villon watched with critical eyes, silently praising Taff for the things she did right. However, as far as improvements, she could stand to be a little more in his opinion. For one, he wouldn't have stopped at a singular punch and kick, it would have been multiple AND the skateboard. Two, he would have started to drain the energy so they wouldn't be able to get up for the next couple of hours. He was trying not to take starseeds, so that was out of the question. His look changed from critical to impassive when she asked if he would patrol with him. Not till she drained the stupid light, THEN he would go with her.
-----
Taaffe gave Villon a raised eyebrow before turning to look at the senshi and back to Villon.
“Whats that look for? You dont have to patrol with me you know … I mean I didn't think you were mad at me for using you, but I guess I should apologize for that.” She looked apologetic, more because he looked less than impressed and less because she was actually sorry.
She put her skateboard away and shrugged.
-----
Villon tilted his head, impassive face still apparent. He looked to the senshi, then back to Taff, “Drain him.'' He didn't say anything about not patrolling with her so he wasn't sure how she came to that conclusion. Clearly she would need to have someone with her while she was out and about since she seemed to attract trouble. He looked back to Taff, his last sentence seeming like he almost forgot to say it, “Then we can patrol.” Maybe he should see if his cousin could put in a word to her team that he would like to take her under his wing. Taff had volumes of potential and he was feeling nice. He could be a good mentor when he wanted to be. He wanted to make sure she drained as much energy as she could without killing the ********, so he stood by and waited.
-----
Taaffe almost face palmed at Villon’s word before turning around and heading right back over to the senshi, “duh definitely something I shouldn’t have to be told.” The words were mumbled to herself as she touched the senshi and started to drain him. He was unconscious so she wasn’t really sure when to stop because when they were wobbly was usually when she gave pause.
She realized after a moment that she looked a little paler and pulled away with a sizable amount of energy. “I don’t think he is going to wake up any time soon.” She frowned, looking off to the left, “someone else is coming.”
She tucked the energy away, “alright, shall we go now?”
-----
Villon was about to stop her when Taff managed to stop herself. He could hear the footsteps and someone shouting if help was needed. He was tempted to knock the person out and drain them as well, but maybe another time. “Let's go.” He started running, knowing Taff would catch up to him on her board. This is definitely something he would be talking to Wither about later and maybe her little blue senshi as well. Kid needs training and he was willing to offer it if they would be okay with another little psycho running around.
