Sailor Osiris // Senshi of Justice
Location: C2 to Exit

While Osiris was ready to do whatever was necessary to protect the people and give them justice. He became blank during all the excitement. He was overwhelmed by the situation and couldn't make a decision. His hesitation cost him dearly, as he was unable to participate much in this final stand at all. He instead couldn't remember anything that had happened and all he remembered was waking up surrounded by fire. "Ooh hot hot hot," he said as he felt the burning fire hit his arms and legs waking him from his blackout. He quickly ran away from the fire, not wanting to get hurt any further. Since the fire had already left burns on her arms and legs. He had no idea what was going on, and why the fire had started. He looked around to find any clues that could point him to the cause of the fire, but he found nothing. He stood there, feeling helpless, regretting his decision to hesitate in the first place. Then his mind kicked in and made him realize he needed to run or he could be putting his life in serious danger.

As he was running, he thought about all the events that had led up to this moment. He wondered how he had ended up in such a situation. He vowed to himself to never stay still in a situation like this again. He knew from now on he needed to practice how to handle the stress these situations could bring. He promised himself he would be more prepared for such dangerous situations in the future. With newfound determination, he ran faster and further away from the flames, thinking about what he could do to make sure he never got into this kind of situation again. The first thing that he needed to do was to take care of the burns on his body. They hurt so badly. He quickly raced towards his house, where he would be able to take care of his wounds. He was determined to never be in this situation again. He would be ready for anything and these burns would not stop him. He vowed to never let his guard down and be prepared for anything. He decided to make it his mission to become stronger and more resilient. From this day forward, he was determined to be stronger.


Sailor Mira, Eternal Sailor of Sugar
Location: D2 to Exit

As she rushed towards the nearest person, she wanted to see if they needed any help. Something in her shut down. It was like her body had reached a point of exhaustion. She stopped and took a deep breath, feeling her heart pounding in her chest. She knew she had reached her limit and needed to take a break and recharge. Not really a very smart thing during a battle she knew, but her body wasn't giving her a choice. She slowly backed away, hoping the person would be okay. She sat down against a wall nearby and her eyes just faded to black. Before she knew it she smelled smoke. She jolted awake and saw the battle still going on around her. She quickly got up, feeling the adrenaline rush through her veins again. Part of her wanted to join the fight or what was left of it. However, the logical side of her realized she needed to move now or she might become ash. The flames around her had grown so large and smoke was all around her.

She began to cough and headed in the direction of her bakery. She needed to get some fresh air and she knew the next battle she would be ready. This battle taught her one thing, that even an eternal needs a break. She had been running her body ramped, between school, the bakery, home, and being a senshi. She never gave her body time to recover and because of that she was useless in this battle. So she vowed to take a week off of everything and just allow her body the time to recover. That way next battle she could be of more use, more use than just a one time nega hit. She also realized that if she wanted to be an effective senshi, she needed to learn how to take care of her body better. She made it her mission to stay on top of her health and make sure she was getting enough rest and taking care of her physical needs. She was determined to be the best senshi she could be.

Chibi Senshi Shedir//Super Senshi of Mummies

Location: E2 to exit

She started to plan out what she wanted to do, breaking down the tasks into smaller, more manageable chunks. She then set herself a timeline to make sure she stayed on track and was able to reach her goals. With renewed energy and focus, she was ready to move forward and take charge of her own destiny. Somehow , she found the courage to take the first step. She was determined to stay focused and committed to her plan no matter what obstacles she encountered. She was ready to take on the challenge and make her dreams come true. But after finally getting her plan set she felt a fire start around her. She didn't know when time had gotten away from her. She quickly realized that she had been procrastinating and putting off starting her plan. With a newfound sense of urgency, she looked around her location.

Everything had gotten so intense for Shedir's first major battle, especially after just becoming a super chibi senshi. She took a deep breath and stepped forward, determined to prove that she could handle this. She closed her eyes and focused all her energy on the task at hand. She opened her eyes and felt a surge of confidence. One that she had needed awhile ago it just took awhile to show up. She was able to draw upon her inner strength and courage to face the challenge, and even though she was scared and unsure of herself, she was able to muster the courage to take the first step. Shedir knew that even though this was a daunting task, her determination and perseverance would get her through it. But as the flames grew she knew that the time to fight had ended. Now was the time she needed to retreat and refocus She gathered her courage and slowly backed away, ready to fight another day. Taking a deep breath, she knew that her inner strength and courage had gotten her this far and would help her through any other challenge she encountered. With renewed energy, she was ready to face the future battles and grow even stronger.

Bellalunae//Chaos Mauvian
Location: A5 to Exit

She decided to jump in and let her presence be known. With a loud roar, she stepped forward to join the fight. But somehow as soon as she did she noticed the fire exploding all around the bank. So instead of joining the fight she decided to sit back and observe. She watched in amazement as the fight unfolded, her heart racing as she took in the scene.

She wanted to help, but wasn't sure how without endangering herself or others. She quietly slipped away, feeling helpless and determined to find a way to make a difference. She knew that she had to be cautious and mindful of her own safety and the safety of others before joining the fight. She also knew that she could still make a difference without directly engaging in the fight. She wanted to find a way to help without putting herself in danger. She started doing research into ways she could help without putting herself at risk. So with that she decided to observe and take notes on the battle happening before her eyes. She documented the events as they unfolded, noting the strategies used by both sides and their effectiveness. With this data, she was able to develop a plan to aid the cause without having to directly participate in the fight. She was able to make a meaningful contribution without putting herself in harm's way. At least she was finding a way to learn, since she knew her cute kitty self definitely had a long way to go. She had been in a few battles, but today's battle was unlike anything she had witnessed before.

As she saw some of the people contributing to the battle begin to rush off. She figured now was a good time for her to head home and compile her notes. Since not only would they be good notes for battle but also for the new horror book she was working on writing. So with that she rushed off towards her family's hotel one little paw at a time. She quickly scribbled down her notes and rushed back to her family's hotel. When she arrived, she planned to type up her notes into an organized report and began writing her horror novel. A great plan she thought as she continued to rush home.

Transcended Eternal Sailor Encke, Senshi of Plasma
Location: D3/E3 -> Exit
Action: Exiting! [ am staying vague re: Muri's post but I may come back and edit once that's filled out! <3 ]

Encke saw how Pendour looked at him, and he managed the ghost of a smile.

It was hard to smile these days, and it often felt like he was grasping at straws. He knew the balance would return once he could fight through the mire; trauma never left, it just ebbed and flowed, and right now, he was definitely in something of a flow. He knew that. The presence of the general-sovereign aura and the knowledge of who it belonged to made that press worse and not better, but in some ways, it made it different. A new general-sovereign was something he was used to seeing in a different way than he was used to seeing ... well.

Not important right now. He needed to tell himself that among everything. He needed to tell himself that they had won, more importantly. The bank was going up in flames along with everything in it, and he could tell by the sirens and the fact it was getting harder to see and the smoke he smelled threatening to fill his lungs if he didn't get a bit further away.

"No problem at all," and Encke meant that sincerely. "It's nice to be able to help where I can." And his comet had the knowledge that allowed him to help long enough to at least help this page stop bleeding out from the stab wounds he had happily gained from that general that had stormed off, but nevertheless...

What was important was that the immediacy of the injury eased off, and Pendour was launching into action--as she was wont to do, really--to address the rest. As she gathered the page and told Encke what she was doing, Encke responded with a quiet, "Be careful, okay?" not of concern that she was going to get injured, necessarily, but--

Well, she was leaving, and he would be concerned for her regardless.

There was a part of him that had gotten quite used to seeing her often. Encke and Pendour were incredibly close, and while he didn't mind seeing her leave innately, his brain thought about that exit a moment too long before he turned his attention back to those remaining. "Encke of Plasma, a pleasure," he offered, happy to make the acquaintance of any potential ally, really. And if Murikabushi trusted him, Encke would do his best to trust them, too. Part of the push of hoping that Murikabushi would one day leave the chaos behind was easy embrace of those he trusted, too.

... Not that that was particularly hard when they continued to be allies--

"And Pen's right. Murikabushi the Kind is more suited. We all make bad life choices sometimes, and that's okay," his smile was perhaps not as winning as usual, but as an actor, it wasn't hard to summon a smile anyway. "Nothing is immutable." Nothing ever was.

Nothing.

Nothing--

His brain snapped out of it before it spiraled, and as Murikabushi left to go talk to Fang--Encke would have to catch up with him later--Encke's attention turned both to the fire and the sirens and then to Amsvartnir nearby. "You wanna get out of here? I'm pretty fast if you need a lift."

By pretty fast he meant both literal and figurative--after all, he could go to his comet, but he did run as a hobby as a civilian and had for years, and being eternal only made him even speedier.

Corporal Vaylin of the Vanguard of Velencya
Action: Fleeing the scene

Vaylin was glad the mission had more or less succeed the bank was destroyed and they had uncovered the Negaverse's purpose, something that was sickening to Vaylin. She didn't fully understand the intricacies of the Youma of the Negaverse but the idea they were making a weapon to turn humans into those monsters was revolting. Admittedly though she would have liked to gotten a chance to take the weapon apart and study it, even a weapon built for evil like that could provide important insight into Starseeds and the nature of magic that might prove useful for her people. But she understood why the forces of Order destroyed it, if it fell back into the hand of Chaos it would be terrible.

The battle that had begun after the mission was far from ideal, it seemed the General that had been killed on the roof was merely a vanguard of the rest of his army. Many powerful Chaos agents began appearing on the scene. She did not have aura sense but a quick check of her ComTech told her everything she needed to know. Some of the Chaos fighters she recognized, one in particular she had seen before in battles, a fiery General before was clearly now more powerful. She believed that officer was now one of the General Kings and if she was right that made things all the more dangerous.

She had to get away from this, the building was burning and there were alot of dangerous people now littering the field. She wanted to help Order fight but she had to survive, she had to keep her promise to Lyndin and she had to try to find a way to save Caedus and her people. So with a silent apology to the members of order she took off running.

She was stopped however by a flash of light. Looking back to see what had happened her eyes found the burning General King and a shinny woman in a beautiful gown. She checked her ComTech to be certain but that was Princess. She let out a silent cheer for the forces of Order, that would certainly even the odds a little. This was now the second Senshi she had seen become a princess, she hoped one day she could speak to one of these illustrious members of Order, maybe they in their glory would have some insight into how to save her people.

The princess unleashed some impressive magic on the battlefield sending arrows raining down upon her enemies. The display was awe inspiring to be sure, it made her wonder what her own King could have been capable of had his starseed not been ruined by the foolishness of their former Elders. She still did not think it was worth killing Caedus for but this display did at least make her understand a little bit more why Lyndin was so desperate to have a reborn Sailor Velenia. It was those thoughts that carried the young Corporal off into the shadows of the night.

Sailor Koeia, Deep Space Senshi of Miracles
Action: Leaving the field

Koeia felt the mission had been a complete success the bank, as the humans called it, was burning to the ground and the terrible weapon the Negaverse had built was destroyed. Generally speaking she did not like to destroy things, in her experience it was better to build up worlds to make them stronger, tearing things down usually only weakened societies as it meant a loss of resources and services. However she was also aware that there were times when something was so dangerous and so rotten to the core that it needed to be cleansed with fire. This 'Bank' was one such thing, as were all products of Chaos.

What especially concerned the ancient Senshi was that weapon, she only heard the details provided over the phones but it was enough to send a cold chill through her ancient bones. She was still learning about the Youma monstrosities that the Negaverse employed but she understood enough to know they were made by performing unspeakable atrocities on a starseed, just the thought made her send a silent prayer to the Cauldron. She couldn't comprehend the though process that would make someone create a weapon to make that blasphemous process even easier to accomplish. She was glad the destruction team had taken care of it. Such a tool has no place in this world or any other.

She was also glad the two young girls had gotten away before battle really got going. They would have certainly been injured or worse had they stayed any longer. She wished she had the same power she did in her youth at times like for as she was in this diminished state there wasn't much she could do. Still she helped where she could fighting Youma, she wasn't powerful enough to help with the stronger officers but as long as her magic remained stable she could at least fight some of the monsters.

She called on her magic right as a Youma tried to slash her chest open with razor like claws, her miracle however bounced the damage right back onto the monster turning it to dust. She gazed over the burning battlefield, it reminded her of the dark days of her past when her world fell. She hated fights like this, too many people got hurt in times like this. Her eyes feel on a eternal in the grasp of a Youma like General King, she squeezed her eyes shut not wanting to see the terrible corruption that was sure to follow. However her aura sense did not feel a new chaos aura flare into existence but instead she felt something wonderful a regal aura spreading like a comforting dawn. She opened her eyes to see a new Princess standing there. She was radiant, it made Koeia's heart soar with joy to see a young Senshi achieve such magnificent heights. The princess unleashed her wrathful magic upon the forces of Chaos, arrows rains downed upon the Agents of the Negaverse. This was as good an opportunity for everyone to get away from the field as ever and Koeia did not waste that chance. She took off into the night.

General Chalcanthite
Location: EXIT
Action: Teleporting Out

It had been a while since he had seen Benitoite in this way and it made him shudder internally a bit. "Of course General, see you then." He had gotten one name so far, from the knight that had the babysitter senshi. So the one who had used magic on him was named Chaldene, he would have to report that and the way the magic seemed to work when he arrived back. He also heard part of a name from that senshi was it Antaris or Antares, something like that before they dropped into whispers.

Scraps of information were better than nothing, he was a bit annoyed he couldn't get the name of the little knight that was now so definitively on Benitoite's hit list. He would have to send Voce out to look later and find what he could. The only thing he could do now is commit both of their appearances to memory so he could sketch them out to offer their likeness as a clue for his youma to look for and steal their voices.

With the next calling out and leaving of the only others on this roof, he teleported out and began mentally writing his report.

Stromboli, Page of Uranus
Location: C2 to exit
Action: Taking Abzu's suggestion and heading out

He was staying too long for his own safety, and he knew this, but the alarm bells in his mind were not enough to urge Stromboli away as he continued to swing at the waves of youma. Some swiped at him in turn, of course, but Stromboli grit his teeth and stood against it. He needed to make sure everyone else could vacate even as the fire licked against his back.

There were two things that helped him realize that it was too late, and perhaps he had done not only everything he could do but everything he needed to do.

The first was the urging from Abzu. He knew Michel's tendencies by now and the yanking on his sleeve didn't quite fit. If he was nervous enough to do that instead of focusing on helping, then it would probably serve Stromboli to pay attention.

The second was the blooming Order aura across the field, leading to a rain of arrows that began to clean up the problem they were facing.

They didn't need to keep clearing a path. There was one, now.

"Okay, okay, I get it," grumbled Stromboli in turn, taking Abzu's hand to make sure they stayed together among the chaos around them. "Let's go. I’m sure the new princess has this handled."
