Azzo listened to her, "I suppose..." He paused, "I refuse to go live with my parents over seas at least, there's something here... that just keeps me here."
His mood seemed sour, "Granted me and my father don't see eye to eye. I don't really try to bother them much. It's not like I'd want to move."
He shrugged, "I am out of high school." He muttered, "Getting is probably important but you can't do all three. I think Sovereign Heights has dorms actually." If it'd help her, no point in suggesting it.
He shrugged softly, "Psychologist eventually I suppose, though I enjoy having the puppets and doing puppet shows, I don't think that would bring in too much money. Even though that's not really a problem."
He sighed, "Others do it I'm sure it's not like you're the only one. Plus wars don't last forever, they just seem like they do." He placed his hands behind his head as they walked. "I'd rather have the problem you do, have powers and have to lock everything else in a box of second priority. Maybe then my dad would be proud of me. Even if it's a war he doesn't understand."
Being a military brat was hard to deal with when you didn't want to be one. Azzo sighed as he walked along, pausing. "Do you feel that?" He asked unsure if senshi had that sense too or not.

Psychologist. It made sense. He was good at comforting people, good at letting them unload everything and offering advice or empathy. She imagined him for a moment in the place of Mr. Nyguen.. the consouler that had pushed her in the direction of nursing or teaching. It was a good fit.. and one that needed schooling, so it bought him more time at home with his Grandmother.
"My dad doesn't know" She stated, even though she doubted she needed to. "All he knows that my grades have been dropping... my phonecalls and visits are slowing.. and I somehow ended up in a coma that he probably didn't even think I'd wake up from."
"I don't think proud is what he is..." It hurt her to think of her father suffering. To think of him at all for a moment the way that she used to. The man she adored more then anything.
"Huh?" She looked around mildly as Azzo's attention focused on something else. She didn't hear or see anything.

Azzo paused looking at her, "Well it's dangerous for others to know?" He paused, "You can tell him someday though. He'll understand, the cause is noble, you just have to win the war."
He smiled softly, "He'll be proud when he knows, to know his little girl can fight for herself and save the world."
He shook his head, "My dad always wanted me to sign up when I was old enough. I wasn't interested in the service. Not my idea of war." He paused looking at Aurora, "However, this war is ours. It's in our back yard, and it looks like the senshi need organization."
He added with a pause, feeling out what it was. He was looking around for it, eyes narrowed slowly trying to pin-point it. It was moving fast though. His eyes were looking around, "It's too fast..." He muttered.

"Maybe when the day comes he'll be proud" She agreed thoughtfully. It seemed so far away but eventually they'd be able to do it. Until it was over though she couldn't say anything. After losing his wife the idea of his only daughter locked in a war would give him a heart attack. Either that or she'd be whisked away and back to Alaska, locked away in the middle of nowhere like Rupunzel.
"Somethings coming?" Her phone was in her hands, eyes searching the screen for a clue. It wasn't someone.. whatever Azzo felt and she had no reading on where it could be. The phone disappeared and she stepped further out into the street, trying to find whatever it was. Ughhh.. why couldn't she have tracking magic like he apparently did?

By the time Azzo located it, the monster was on them. It zipped past and ran straight into Polaris. "s**t Polaris!" He yelped as he watched, it was fast, and it was headed straight for the Eternal senshi, again; Azzo ran towards it to try to save the senshi. "Polaris it's coming agian.
"Hey stop that." He aimed a tackle for above the blur and just managed to tackle it. Rolling with it, there was a black body that looked something akin to a human horse, a minotaur, with rainbow hair and something that looked like some sort of weird lightening bolt.
The monster hissed at him, Azzo was aiming a punch at it's head, before getting kicked off and rolling over near Aurora. The breath was knocked out of him, as he got up the monster was standing there watching him. "It's fast." He managed when he picked himself off the ground. From here it looked like a girl, though he wasn't really sure.

It all happened in seconds, in the amount of time it took him to warn her the creature was already there. A stampeding horse was enough to kill a person easily. So a stampeding powerful youma horse that moved quicker then she could even track it.. Not good.. not good at all.
Before she could stop him Azzo had thrust himself in front of the giant creature, tackling it before he too was thrown back. She rushed to his side, her arm raising to try and attack. But that was easier said then done.
She needed to scan the area for weapons.. and then she needed to be able to concentrate on her target long enough to cast her magic. And it certainly didn't seem keen on standing there for that.

Azzo sneered at it, when Aurora tried to protect him he stood in front of her. "You have to cast." He reminded her, "You're the super hero here."
He popped his knuckles, "I'll distract it." It was fast, he could barely keep up with it, but if he could predict where it was going to go he could smack it. It was making fun of them, "It looked like some jacked up my little pony. What's the Negaverse coming to?"
Why was Azzo watching My little Pony to start with? He tried to rush again, hoping his prediction was right as to where it was going, though as the saying goes 'fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice...' well fool's luck wasn't on Azzo's side as the horse slid to a stop before Azzo could tackle it sending him head over heals in a tumble. "You b*****d."
He heard something jingle behind him but he was too focused on that damned horse to notice to take notice of it. "I'll show you who's boss, then we'll see who's laughing when I knock your teeth down you're throat." It was one thing to get teased by a human, another to get teased by a dumb monster, and Azzo felt like the monster was laughing at him.

She bit her tongue to fight the urge to call out at him to be careful.. to not do what he was doing. This was what she wanted wasn't it? She just needed to hurry her butt up and get the thing dusted before it trampled Azzo.
Trash cans were always available, but she was looking for something with a bit more umph. Only now.. Azzo was presenting a shield for herself... and subsequently a shield for the youma.
"Hit the ground" She shouted, opting finally for her most chaotic and least powerful attack. She prayed Azzo would take her advice.. and that the youma wouldn't decide to just trample over him when he did.
Eyes squeezing shut, she fired, all the smaller metal items in the area shivering to life. "Magnetic field!"

 When Polaris called out, something smacked Azzo in the back of the head 'cause he wasn't quick enough. "Whu...." His hand snatched it, it was floating obviously before she called. His brow lofted at it wondering what the hell when he noticed the symbol of Saturn on it. The pull for it didn't seem to be quite as strong, not that it wasn't there but he held on it tight.
Though unbeknownst to him, after he grabbed it there was a shift in uniform. Not to mention he was distracted from the beast that he was distracting. Which made it come after him... however, he was a little busy being lost in thought... Niflhel? It was a little bewildering after all.

Had she not seen it herself she'd never have believed it. And for a moment she was flabbergasted and still blinking a few times, until something smacked her in the calf, reminding her of the urgency.
"Azzo...?" She wasn't sure what had happened. One didn't just change clothing so drasticly... But that wasn't a senshi energy signature and it certainly wasn't a fuku. No time to admire the dangling ruffles.. the strong boots. Polaris reached down and grabbed the offending item that had hit her, fingers lacing around the fancy pen. She slide it between her pointer and middle finger and closed her fist before she began to run.
It couldn't dodge two people coming from different directions at once.

The name Azzo brought him back from his bewilder state, what the hell happened? He'd suddenly noticed the frills from the poet's shirt as well. He shook his head, "No time for introductions now. I'll tell you later."
He held onto the Saturn symbol and threw the chain end at the minotaur youma aiming to stop it. Hoping that it'd hit on the monster's leg and go down, or... one again distract it. Which seemed to actually work as he chain whipped it in the back, totally not what he wanted to happen, because now he had pissed it off. "Ah damnit all."

Good enough for her.
She dove in after the minotaur, Azzo's chain whacking the beast and sending it up in an angry rear. Maybe she could make it angry too.
While it's attention was on him, she attempted to punch it, aiming on digging her pen deep into the youma's flank.

Azzo watched as she managed to stab the youma. "A pen is the best you can do?" He asked looking around, why were there not more metal trashcans?
"Not even a fence?" Well, that was sorta what happens. He trucked full speed at the youma aiming a fist as it's chin, "Watch out." He warned Polaris before he rounded up with a kick to the youma's side. The thing he didn't like about pulling out the kickboxing on youma's was that they tended to play dirty when they were part human.

Success!! Her pen dug into the youma up to where her hand gripped it, and she released the 'weapon' in truimph. Sure it was not ladylike or lovely.. but there was a certain rush when she was able to inflict a blow based on her own body. Be it 'brass knuckles' crafted out of screws and nails or an impelling of some random piece.. it was somehow fulfilling in a way.
The last thing she had expected in her moment of triumph was criticism. He certainly was in a grumpy mood tonight wasn't he? Maybe she wasn't taking things seriously enough though.. sometimes it really did feel like these battles were nothing more than plays she was destinied to win. But she knew better.. she'd been hurt enough to know better.
Falling back as 'magic Azzo' called out, she let him do as he liked, searching the area for something bigger to attack with. A hub cap... a... what was that? Some broken piece of something. It looked sharp atleast.. and big enough to do something. She just needed to focus. And make sure Azzo was out of the way.. AND aim well enough on the fast youma that it didn't just dodge...
Easier said then done.

Azzo wouldn't've been grumpy if the pen had been super-sized, but one that doesn't really take down a large monster. He let his fist connect but when his leg collided, the youma grabbed it. "Ff... damnit."
He was stuck in an awkward position of almost flailing and loosing balance. He grabbed the chain from his belt and flung it around the youma's other arm using that to balance himself with a slight swinging motion he managed just enough momentum to give the youma a kick in the chest with his free leg.
It was enough to make it let go he threw chain at it again while it was stunned and hoped it latched on. "You find something yet?" He called out this was going to be fun... he was going to either end up dragged or riding a bucking bronco if he wasn't careful.
