--- With the whole of senshi and knights fighting left and right, Spacewatch kept feeling more and more uncomfortable as time went on. Why everyone seemed intent of fighting each other just seemed really counterproductive. As far as she knew it, Caedus had point blank asked them to kill the big boss. Like a videogame, they were going in to complete the mission then leaving. Simple, straight forward. Nothing to get in a fight over. Now what was fighting over? Girl scout cookies. Had Caedus any left she'd have asked him to share with her. Ask being code for 'very aggressively persuaded with maybe a lot of demanding and foot stomping and threats that she couldn't really back up. Caedus didn't seem the type to capitulate to hostilities however, and so even if he had any left, and even if she'd have been very forceful in her requests from him to share he'd probably not. Plus she remembered his face from when she'd given him the thin mint in milk. He was just as hooked on them as anyone else. He would fight her for thin mints probably. Actually anyone would. That was just the power of thin mints.
Spending her time thinking of thin mints and their merits and values as well as detractors, Spacewatch had nearly missed the call to go through the portal. Which would have very embarrassing to say the least. Especially given the fact that she had said she'd help and she really hated to go back on her word. That would have just made her a joke.
And of all things, she really disliked being called a joke or being the butt end of one; she was not the type to enjoy being the target of ridicule. As she got ready mentally to step through the portal she did have to question herself. Could she do this? Hurt people? This was all just a bit more intense than she had really thought it would be and while Caedus didn't seem bad- it was unnerving in how he was so intent on the killy kill though. She wasn't all that comfortable with that particular aspect of him.
Still as she passed through the portal, her final thought was how this wasn't going to harm anyone. Just cause a disturbance. They were all super powered, nothing could kill or hurt them all that easily right? She didn't want to think it possible. Death wasn't possible. They were super humans. Nothing could really hurt them, they had nothing to worry about.
As the view of darkness and crystal and wrongness filled her sense, Spacewatch shuddered. It wasn't right. None of this was right and she didn't belong. She didn't want to hurt or fight just maybe find out what the whole deal was about. But it would be okay she told herself. No one would die. No one would get hurt for real. They were just gonna make a rukus and whatnot. Stop the badguys. That was all.

Castor arrived and it was dramatic as ******** per the usual of him being a d**k.
Sailor Altair [exit with team to the broken building]
"Y-yes, I agree," Altair smiled brightly with her reply to Ananke, "I really hope we all accomplish what we set out to do and make it back safely altogether."
And then, when mass travel for the mission to investigate the broken building began, she joined the movement along with everyone involved with a mindset to work hard at keeping her wits about her as part of the team.

Castor Page Aptera [exit with team to the barracks]
"Thank you, and I give my word that with everyone in our shared mission I will strive in my aim to be a good member of the team," In light of her profession, Aptera couldn't help the grin with her voiced reply to Oberon, who had addressed her, that was accompanied by the gladness that came over her when witnessing the admirable blossoming of youth. It was part of why she and her younger cousin got along well. Aptera knew she herself learned lessons along side others regardless of any age differences, and she was certain this held with magic in addition to no magic being involved.
Aptera made sure that when movement to the barracks commenced, she was a part of it.
And upon catching sight of Prince Castor, she sent him a small smile with a prayer in her own mind for his brother and him from what she had overheard, and also praying on for everyone Caedus has transported within the brief prayer as a whole, before her gaze continued to scan and moved again towards the destination.

Venice of Ganymede - Team castle. With Gevaudan's group.
Venice stood at Erebus' side, his dark eyes looking around as he waited for his fellow Ganymede knight to lead the way. He was going to follow the other as he at least had a clue and knew the way, the other had at the meeting been upfront about having been a General. This was his former...base of operations, sort to speak, and so he was likely to know the place best. The other certainly acted like it, said he did, and there was no proof to say otherwise so Venice was willing to follow - more than willing really. He wasn't as strong as the others, and he knew it, he wasn't going to do something stupid and life risking.
He wasn't so sure how he felt about breaking into the Negaverse' castle but it was the best, and smartest, idea as far as he was concerned and it was where Gevaudan was going. Stepping close to Erebus' side he prodded the others shoulder and waiting till he had the others attention he lifted both hands and using his fingers formed a simple and small heart, hoping no one in their group would notice it. Dropping his hands then he waited for them to move out and head for the castle.
The loud rumbling had caught Myrrha's attention. The senshi of scents glanced around at the team she had joined before trying to clue into what had been discussed. Sadly she had been more focused on trying to catch another senshi's eye instead of listening. There was nothing to do about distractions as they came along. Feeling the intensity of the chaos aura had her snapping back to the here and now. It seemed as if the team was getting ready to move out. She would do all that she could to help them out. Surely her magical attack would slow at least some opponents down. The atmosphere of the barracks would definitely contain various smells of various strengths.
Myrrha was hoping that she would not be a burden to her team. Her gaze was speculative as she trudged slowly towards the barracks. What would they find in there? Would they encounter anyone? It was grim determination that kept the senshi moving forward. She would not let her temporary team down. Perhaps after this was over, if things went well, she could patrol with Sabine and Phact back in Destiny City. She had been on her own since her awakening and except for meeting one eternal sailor scout she still had a great deal of questions that she believed required answers.
Another shudder ran through her frame as the distance between herself and the barracks shortened. Myrrha took a steadying, deep breath and pressed forward.

Sailor Cetus - Going for the Barracks.
As it seemed the group his cousin was with would be heading toward the barracks and so that was where he'd be going. He wasn't about to let her wander off on her own, well without him anyway, and get into who knows how much trouble. He knew he could be useful at the castle but this was family and he was keeping her safe.
"Ready?" He asked looking to his cousin with golden eyes questioning her. This was not going to be easy for anyone in their group or any other group - but it was a necessary thing. This had to be done, he did wonder how Venice would hold up though. Glancing back at the other he shook his head, no time to think about him right now. Not waiting for much of a response he headed off toward the barracks.
((Exit, gonna be going to the barracks thread.))

Page Gorner of Castor - Going to the barracks.
Her cousins had not turned up, not that she'd seen anyway, and there were crowds of people with teams seeming to form around certain destinations. She already knew where she was planning to go, she really wanted to just run off toward the barracks, the only thing holding her back from running off was the dark feeling of this place. This place both creeped her out, set her on edge, and fascinated her. It was odd to feel those things all at once, she couldn't remember a time when she'd ever felt all those things at once. Either way she wanted to get to the barracks but she wasn't about to take off running, even though she really wanted to.
Biting her lip she went searching for a group that seemed to be headed that way, she had no abilities of her own right no...aside from smacking things with a tiny little vase! She supposed she could hit something with that...many times if need. She did find a group though and made her approach.
"Barracks, right?" She asked seeming eager to head that way, and she was. She really couldn't do much to hold back, or hide, the energy she was filled with.

Slievenamon, Page of Neptune
The page of Neptune wouldn't certainly stood around forever until her group decided to start moving on. There was a noticeable shake to her leg, as if she were a rabbit ready to hop at the slightly movement, as she was quite eager to head toward the dilapidated building. Against her better judgement, though, Slievenamon found herself walking without any hesitation when she allowed the want to consume her actions.
When she finally caught wind of just what she was doing, she made a face-heel turn and regarded the rest of the members of her group with a look of sheepishness while backpedaling. "I hope it is okay I take the initiative and advance in exploring," she said. "I'll see you guys over there!"
And then she broke out into a chipper little jog. That building over there—whatever it was about it—offered a lot for her to learn and Slievenamon couldn't find out its secrets.

Sailor Cadmus, Chibi Senshi of Cranberries Barracks
It seemed that, after some general passing of time, the group by the portal had dissipated into whatever respective paths they had chosen, so naturally Cadmus decided to do the same. Despite being hand-in-hand with Iduna, he made his way toward the barracks and found both himself and his companion waved over by another senshi.
"Oh, really? Thanks," Cadmus said to Oberon. "Hey, nice ta meet you, Perdita, Chara. Y'know, despite the, uh, sucky circumstances." Being in the realm of the Negaverse was hardly a great place to make acquaintances, after all.
Elpis’s cheerful wave and Gevaudan’s serious words were at odds, but between them, Subamara felt both reassured and welcomed in the path she’d chosen. Even if it was dangerous, it was right. She waved back to Elpis, managing a bit of a smile for the other senshi and her team, before turning back to the knight.
“I understand,” she told Gevaudan, with a pigtail-bobbing nod. “I want to stop Metallia.”
She fell in with the rest as they began to move towards the castle, positioning herself midway between those following Gevaudan and those with Elpis. When the groups formed up together, she’d be near the centre, where she could use her magic effectively without being in direct combat. She only hoped she wouldn’t be too much in the way. The last thing she wanted was to make things harder for these brave senshi and knights.

Thanks Elpis!

Thanks Gevaudan, she will try to not die!

Falias, Squire of Earth
It seemed like others were also heading in the direction of the strange building and whilst Falias couldn't help but wonder if they had felt the strange fleeting something that he had felt when he had initially glanced towards it.
Some of the others heading his way appeared to clustered into smaller groups and whilst Falias didn't make a move to particularly try and join with them, he did his best to note some of the faces.
Because even he knew that this wasn't a place that he could do solo - as he didn't have a suicide wish... Although there were some who would perhaps argue otherwise given that he had stepped through the portal and had done so of his own free will to boot...
The sound of something rumbling pulled him from his thoughts as the deep whisper seemed to almost reverberate around the crystal-studded cavern.
He could feel something in his left hand and with a start Falias realised that at some point he had summoned his weapon - that his fingers were clenched around the ash wand that had replaced the mistletoe sprig that he had started out with.
Falias sighed quietly and picked up his pace, hand reaching to tuck the wand into the pocket of his top as he walked.
The sound reminded him that he didn't have much time... Caedus had said an hour and who knew how much of that hour was left.
The thought had him picking up his pace even further into something that was in between trot and brisk walk.
Everyone was starting to huddle together as they traversed closer to the barracks, and Chara both appreciated it and began to curse inwardly. Yes, great! More people makes for a stronger team! But all huddled together made them easy targets.
"Okay... So once we go in, we should split up some. NEVER go alone, duh, but cover more ground, see more that we can see so we can actually NOT all be in the same place at once. That's what they want, I'm SURE there's traps there... I mean, who wouldn't put traps in a place that supposed to be a military base? Seems kinda common knowledge to me, right?"
Smiles received were smiles returned and soon enough they were right at the door.
"Hells.. Here goes nothing."

Tomlin, Guardian Cat
Tomlin stepped away from the green crystal as a young senshi approached him. A chibi, though not one of the tiny ones. Even so, the cat frowned. He should have been paying more attention, and realised Caedus was encouraging their youngest members to enter this hellhole. The boy didn’t seem scared, though definitely on edge – who wouldn’t be? But he was alone. Tomlin wound gently around his legs.
“Tomlin. Pleased to meet you, Oort.”
He surveyed the distant buildings with narrowed eyes. Nothing moving. Not the main target. Probably a safe bet for wrecking the joint without attracting too large an opposition.
“Yeah, good idea,” he agreed, falling in step with the lone chibi.
As they got closer, it was clear that Oort wasn’t the only younger senshi to come through.
“Oberon? Nice uniform,” he approved upgraded the super senshi. He hadn’t seen Oberon for a long time, but the kid had shot right up. Nice to see someone prospering, especially on a day like this.
He glanced over at the spotted cat. Maybe Mlinzi was new, but it was equally possible they just hadn’t crossed paths before. It wasn’t like Tomlin made much effort to be out and about when there wasn’t something going on.
“Not yet,” he said, tail twitching with a curiosity that he wasn’t going to get to indulge till they were safely back on the grass of the outside world.
When the group began to move towards the barracks, he stuck close to Oort, as the others seemed already to know each other.
Ananke smiled at Altiar to be honest she was putting on a brave face. This place was definitely some where that they shouldn't be. Not only did she have to worry about trying to protect herself and others. Ananke paused that thought as she turned her head slightly to look behind her as she walked side by side Altiar.
The complete uncertainty of how long that portal will stay open. She quickly turned her head forward. While she was unsure at what they where doing exactly, she knew they couldn't dally around long. The possibility they could be trapped here was also a possible outcome.
Continuing her pace to the broken building she knew everyone knew of the danger it would be pointless to point out what everyone already knew right. She'll worry about how much time they have on her own. So for now she'll just keep smiling as they walk towards unknown danger.

Chibi Oort
The cat with the copper star had stepped away from the green crystal as he got closer to it and had padded over in his direction and wound itself round his legs.
And it seemed like his guess about the cat not being a cat-cat had been right.
Because it - well make that he because that was totally a guy's voice - could speak too.
"It's nice to meet you too Tomlin" he said and it was, even if Tomlin was totally the first talking cat that he'd seen since the night that Horatio had given him his magic pen.
He'd been about to ask the ginger tabby if he wanted a carry, but as Tomlin was already falling into step with him, he guessed that the answer would probably be a no and so Oort kept walking, although he tried to make sure to walk slow enough so that Tomlin could keep up.
He was only part of the way over to the buildings when he heard the rumble, the sound like a whisper but one that was deep enough and loud enough to be heard around the cavern in an eerie echo of sound.
Oort shivered despite himself, because the sound had been creepy and picked up his pace a little, walking forward a few steps before remembering that Tomlin was with him and forcing himself to slow again because he didn't want to leave the ginger kitty behind.
It was only as he got closer to the buildings that he realised that quite a few people seemed to have headed this way, although apart from a blue-haired girl (Iduna) who for some reason seemed vaguely familiar, there wasn't anyone amongst them that was particularly recognisable.
Oort hung back, hovering awkwardly amongst the edge, however he did manage to give the brown-haired boy who waved at him and who was apparently called Oberon a small nod, especially as Tomlin appeared to know him and he did move a teensy bit closer to the rest of the group...
And when everybody started moving Oort followed after them, a part of him glad that Tomlin was sticking around him although it wasn't something that he was going to admit to - at least not out loud.
Shangri-la/ Maia - Exit to the Barracks with Babylon Group
They were a small group, but after a few moments it seemed they had a plan. She didn't need a weapon and would take one, but she didn't blame anyone that would. She didn't think it would benefit her whatever she found she would have no idea how to wield it. She looked to her brother and then to the senshi who appeared to be very new, too new in fact for this. She frowned, even though there was strenght in numbers, they were going to need to watch her.
When Harmonia spoke she smiled at the girl, her magic would likely be useful and she piped up noting that, "I pretty good at hand to hand combat. So is my brother when he's not being relunctant."
Shang gave his sister a look which could only be described as displeasure before looking to the other as they moved out and headed to the barracks. He summoned his weapon prepared for a fight, wary, as always, but feeling something hadn't been right with all this and never really having trusted Caedus.
