Frost coated the ground as he walked, trailing behind him in a serpentine like path, his hair dragged the ground in a dark silken train. If it weren't for the chaos aura, and perhaps the chill and frost surrounding him, he might seem appealing to many. But Miyamoto didn't aim to attract people - he aimed to instill fear.
He'd already dropped a lowly little knight earlier, ripping their starseed out viciously, and left the body on the ground without much care. That had been blocks away and he was certain they'd be found soon, if they hadn't been already, the fight had ended poorly for the weak little thing. His magic had certainly thrown them for a loop and left them open to having their starseed removed - and crushed. He wouldn't allow them to be reborn.
The walk down the sidewalk was calm and confident, pleased with himself, he still could feel the rush from it all. It was thrilling and filled him with a certain amount of pleasure. Oh, he'd done well tonight.

Sterrennacht strolled through the overgrown forest of the human world, she did appreciate the darkness the shade of the leaves brought her but she detested their vibrant green coloring that demonstrates the flourishing of life on this Cauldron forsaken planet. She noted the feeling of a knight followed by a senshi but the senshi felt strange not dissimilar to the officer she had met before. She assumed the senshi but must also be a servant of Chaos. That already piqued her interest.
Then she felt the two auras meet and presumably clash and as soon as it had begun she felt the knight's aura completely vanish. Now she was fascinated, she didn't feel him dying slowly he was just gone. She wanted to meet this chaos senshi. So she followed the aura to its source finding a human male who was dripping with frost magic. The man looked rather pleased with himself and while normally such smugness would make the ancient woman want to see him suffer until that grin contorted into a face of pure agony, she could not deny him the satisfaction of a good kill.
"Well well" She purred. "You are very efficient! Pray tell young senshi how exactly did you do that?" She hoped he would be amenable to sharing his methods of murder.

He'd felt her coming, though he hadn't known who was coming, it hadn't even been right away that he'd sensed her. He'd been a bit caught up in the kill, and the subsequent rush from it, but when he did hear the voice he turned towards it. Surprise colored his expression as he looked her over. Well, this one looked interesting. She wasn't a normal senshi...one of those space ones?
"I took advantage of my own magic, and the typical reaction to it, I yanked his starseed and crushed it." It was simple and easy, quick and did the job so things didn't need to drag out. He wasn't a fighter, not the sort to fight physically, so he relied on his magic to handle things. His magic and it's impact on a persons emotions tended to leave them rather open to attack, if even for a few seconds, it was long enough for him to grab a starseed and do the deed.
"You seem pleased that I've killed a knight...and you're a senshi." Which made no sense to him but here it was.

"I've heard little of that ability, I have not been on this planet for very long I've only met one other of your order, this Negaverse. Forgive me for my inquisitiveness but I must know what it feels like, to hold another's very soul in the palm of your hand, to defy the blasphemous will of the Cauldon and end it's wretched cycle of existence." Her eyes sparkled with sadistic glee beneath her veil.
"Pleased?" She scoffed. "Pleased would imply I cared enough about that Knight to wish them dead. I knew them not, however it's life like all life is an affront to the truth of the universe and I am simply impressed by your ability to correct that affront." She answered plainly.
"Ah but where are my manners I have not even introduced myself. I am Sailor Sterrennacht the Senshi of Hatred. It is a pleasure to meet you." She said performing a perfectly polite curtsey that belied the cruel murderer that lay beneath the surface of this ancient being.

"I don't mind the questions, I am simply surprised a senshi would want to know about it...would want to hold anothers starseed in their hand. Most would rather kill me for what I've done." Not tell him he'd done well, or express intrest in doing it themselves.
"You are certainly not like any other senshi I've met, not in appearence but more surprising is how different in personality and opinion that you are." If more senshi and knights were like this....well he might not want to kill them all. This one seemed more suited to the Negaverse if he were to be honest; and he liked it.
"Super sailor Miyamoto of tsuara onna. It is a pleasure to meet you." Bowing, he did still posess some manners, and strightening he felt a smirk tugging at his lips. It most certainly was a pleasure to meet her, and he hoped to spend more time in her company. It was pleasent thus far. "Explain what you mean by life, like all life, being an affront and the truth of the universe. I'm young, unlike yourself, and know nothing of space and the ancient past. I would like to know what truth you seem to know, what I have corrected as you say."
Oh, he was going to enjoy spending time with this senshi...and it wasn't going to involve bloodshed...at least not hers or his own.

She scoffed, "Bah even if I wished you dead I'm no fool I can feel the difference in our powers. My power has diminished over the eons while you appear to be in your prime. I'm not one to through my life away especially to avenge some knight too foolish or weak to protect themselves. No I'd much rather learn than engage in some pointless combat." She explained.
She let out an ancient throaty chuckle that did not belong to a face that appeared as young as her's. "You are right I am not like any other senshi I am older than most by far and as the embodiment of hatred I have the strength of will to accepted the reality of the Universe." She was impressed he could tell she was older than her appearance would suggest. The Negaverse's information network must truly be impressive or perhaps he was simply a good guesser.
"If you will indulge me a short story first." She inquired before continuing. "Ages ago, more than a millennia in your Earth time, I was the ruler of the cold star of Sterrennacht, Dread Lord was I, master of a vast dark world. I travelled often in that time to see worlds far and wide the different aspects of the Universe beyond the dark lands I held dominion over. Yet in my absence a sour note of discord had infected the hearts of my morose people. Many rose against me in rebellion once I had returned, for what purpose I know not. It was a bloody conflict between my loyalists and the rebels. Oceans of blood filled our streets and corpses piled high like mountains. They fought me to the last and when all was said and done I was the victor. But even as I carved the heart from the last rebel's chest I realized I was now all alone. A singular being on a dead planet. It was in the long silence that followed I realized the truth. All living creatures are selfish and cruel, those who act otherwise do so only for social gain or to avoid reprisal. Life breeds only discontent and misery for eventually given enough time all creatures seek conflict and suffering. Then what is life but a mistake to be corrected through any means necessary to end this misery and even better to end it for good denying that horrific cycle of reincarnation enforced upon us all in the afterbirth of the Universe." She finished her pontification gesturing towards the stars where somewhere deep in space lay the great Cauldron.

"The embodiment of hatred...interesting. I wasn't aware such a thing could exsist. There are senshi of all mannerr of things." Some seemed rather weak and pathetic really. "But they do not embody what they are the senshi of.
Nodding his head to her request, he wanted to hear what she had to say. She might be weaker than he was, he could feel it as well as she could, she was also far older and wiser. She had answers to things he might want to know, she had information. This was a senshi he felt like he might find common ground with, shocking as that might be. He didn't want to outright kill her.
"Interesting, and I see the truth in those words. The old idea of what human nature is...that we all are greedy. That people can't ever avoid war totally because it's in our nature to want and to take, via whatever means, in order to better ourselves and our lot in life. So you want to break the chains and end everyone so there will be no more greed and conflict caused by it. No more death and war or suffering because there will be no us to cause, or feel, such things. Interesting but I'm human and I don't care much for the idea of dying...though I don't mind killing others." And he was as flawed as every other human was.
"But now I wonder...would you willingly kill yourself after everyone else in the cosmos were to die? if you could kill everyone, somehow, would you end yourself than? To remove the last remaining bits of human nature." He might agree with her but there was no way he'd off himself...but he might help her in offing others, especially senshi and knights.
"And if you could somehow remove everyone - they'd all be reborn, unless you made sure they couldn't be. But than what? Life finds a way, as I've heard before, something else would come to replace us. Something else that might, in time, become like us." Like humans. Perhaps not in human form but it might just come and it might even be worse, whatever it was.

"Oh no? Do you not believe you embody the virtues of the tsuara onna? Perhaps it is a difference of perspective, after I was proclaimed the Sailor Sterrennacht I was raised to embody the virtues of hatred to understand it deep down in the core of my soul." She mused remembering her ancient childhood.
She laughed at his question, it was sort of precocious naivety. "There is an order to all things, some people must die before others. Those who are useless, aggravating, or pretentious should die first. Someone such as yourself would low on the list of priorities for me to kill because you are contributing to the solution." She said dispassionately. "You yourself have answered that question. I would not end my own life because someone must be a warden guarding against any new 'finding a way' as you say. If I manage to snuff out the curse of life then I will serve again as I served on my planet a guardian for the tomb of all ensuring that should any life come along again to intrude on the restful silence I will stomp it out with severe prejudice." A vicious tone in her voice. "Only a power as strong as the Cauldron itself could ever truly destroy it and bring peace so there must be soldiers still to fight its spawn."

"I don't think I do, at least, perhaps it's because we didn't grow up in the same enviornment. Maybe if this were ancient times, and back in space, we would embody it or be raised to do so." Maybe evernone would...though that idea was a bit scary to think about, given the stories of tsuara onna. He was familiar with the legands, for several reasons, and to think of a planet of people like that in anyway was a bit worriesome to be fair.
"Well, I'm glad I rank low on your to kill list." That was very much the truth, he didn't care much for fying any time soon. He'd much rather live longer so he could kill more senshi and knights, he found the idea rather pleasing. Honestly, how quickly and easily he accepted the idea of hurting and killing was shocking. He was certain if his parents, assuming they were even still alive, knew of this likely dramatic change in him they would be ashamed of him no doubt. They might even claim his ancestor to have shame over it as well.
"So you'd remain while everyone else would be dead...and you'd snuff any new life out. Would you have no help in the matter? No one else to stand guard with you and keep more life from returning? Seeing as the Cauldron would keep trying to birth new life, against your wishes. I doubt you're the type to need, or want, friendships and company but help in the matter might still be a need." He wasn't looking to aid her but he was questionging the idea of taking on such a large teck on your own. Plus to be the only remaining life as well. Why not end herself as well and do away with all life? Then even if she were reborn she, the currant she, would not like have the same beliefs as the past one and there would not be a care for new life returning to space.

Sterrennacht gazed at the other Senshi contemplatively for a moment. "I believe I had heard most of the Senshi here were born and raised on this planet correct? I suppose it would only make sense then being raised in such a singular environment that they would be further from what they're meant to be." She said the last part more to herself before shrugging. "I suppose it doesn't really matter."
She laughed. "Yes indeed." She rather liked this young Senshi he had a good head on his shoulders and a knack for murder. Such talents could prove useful if given the right direction, it was a thought she would ponder later.
"Help such as yourself?" She probed. "Yes I suppose were I to find like minded individuals who proved useful to my cause forming such a fellowship against the treachery of life would be advantageous." She thought on matter for a moment. "But one must insure such allyship is built on mutual gain and respect not trust, for trust is the same thing as reliance and is the fault of cowards." It was a mistake she would make sure to never make again, allies in war were one thing but friends were another matter altogether.

"All of us have been born here, knights, senshi, negaverse." Which meant they were all human and subject to similar views on things, within reason of course, but almost everyone involved inthe fighting in Destiny City had grown up in this city as well. So they all were a bit more similar in how they'd been raised, as opposed to looking globally and how people were raised and grew up.
"I'm not adverse to the idea of killing, as I'm sure you can tell. I rather like the idea of killing senshi and knights. I was brought onto their side of things without fully grasping things, and without other options presented. I chose my side and betray them." At the cost of memories...of his family. No, he was ok with killing senshi and knights. He wasn't ok with killing civilians but he also doubted that was something to say here and now with this particular person. They wanted all life dead...magical or not.
"But I do speak wisely. The cosmos, even as humans here understand, is massive with many stars, moons, planets and more. More chances for life, as we would understand, and by the time you could get from one pop up of life to another the next one has time to expand...to take you out and put a stop to you. If there were even more pop ups than just wo at the same time, as odds would be in favor of that happening, it would be even more impossible to contain on your own. Assuming cosmos, who controls such things, is out to go against you actgivity than they would likely spawn life all over the cosmos all at once...to spit you." He might as well, for now, make a case to keep himself alive atg the very least. If she could find use for him than it was good for him. He'd watch her...she was dangerous.
"I'm not much for friends...I find I lack them and I don't mind. I have people I work with - that's it. So you needn't worry. I lost my memories, my family, and anything else I had when I changed sides. I've not replaced any of those connections...aside from co-workers." She was really a senshi...she didn't seem like any other senshi he'd met. She was wildly dark and not at all some light and moral being. How amusing it would be if any senshi, or knight, ran into her and taught she would be like them. She'd certainly show them otherwise...and he wanted to see that. He also wanted to keep himself alive and to do that he'd need to be at her side as an alllie, at least for now. He needed to learn from her...and killing some knights and senshi with her help wouldn't be too terrible.
