She didn't need to respond with words, a purr of absolute delight rattling through her entire body as the boy spoke. A supply of catnip grown just for her and pillows. He really was an absolute darling!! She didn't even pay attention to the fact that he was seemingly studying her in a way. Who cared if anyone thought she was like some regular cat, as long as she was getting what she wanted after all.
Her check brushed softly against his jacket until he spotted his target.
She hopped as he leaned to set her down, small feet landing daintily and comfortably on the soft grass once more, peering softly around the tree.
It wasn't like the girl would think something was off if she saw some cat, but Dahlia was being cautious nonetheless, her white body hidden the best it could be within the shadows. He was luring her in with a lie, trying to make her comfortable.. Good strategy.
Her tail twitched softly, waiting for him to pounce!

Well the woman wasn't exactly young, thirties, older than he was. But as he got close enough to talk, without the need for raised voices, he finally grabbed her. Hands shooting out to grab at her. One going for the mouth and another going for about the neck. Using his heels to leaned back as he sought to throw her off balance and drag her off the side walk.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you or do some ungentlemanly thing to you." Saying this was he brought her near to where he let Dahlia down so she could watch. His hand about her neck moved, further down and away from the body so he could collect her energy.
He kept his hold on her completely by the mouth hold he had on her,

She was a little surprised by his strength at first, he seemed far stronger then his actual build might have given off. But then.. it probably had something to do with the power boost one got when transformed.. just like senshi. Of course he was stronger and faster, the woman's struggle wasn't anything compared to what he was capable of.
Her eyes fell down to the hand that she assumed would be drawing the energy, wondering softly if it would be something she could tangibly see. Hadn't Fukalite said it formed a ball?

Not to mention he was using his boot heels to help him in grabbing and dragging. If he could use them to lean back on and throw her balance off he'd use it. Not to mention he'd picked her knowing she'd likely be weaker with just coming home from work and the jogging. It was a planned out attack with a picked target, for reasons which would help him.
His hand above her chest he started his energy collection. All it was, was a matter of concentrating on what he wanted. It really wasn't hard, well it was and it wasn't. It was hard to think on just that.

With the woman obviously busy and well.. aware that something was wrong now Dahlia didn't feel the need to stay hidden now, stepping out into the dim light of the streetlamps, pulling closer.
She remained silent just in case, uncertain of how their victims acted once they were released. How long would it take, she wondered? How hard was it to hold on to? Would he have to run straight back to turn it in once he was done or could they collect and build and hold onto it for later?
The creamy white cat sat on the ground a few feet away from the couple, just watching. It was probably a funny scene if someone else would see it.. but then just the scene between Benitoite and the woman was enough to get the cops called if someone happened by.

That he was aware of, hence drawing them back into the shadows. He didn't care for someone to look out their window and see this. As the energy collected he found himself having a hard time blocking his thoughts for the moment, as fascinating as energy collecting was to watch. He had let the drunks go after draining them, they weren't a danger to him being that they were drunk. Normal people, people who were sober, he preferred leaving unconscious so he could get away without being attacked. This would be no different. His focus was slowly starting to slide toward catnip plants, where he might find them, and the cat on the ground watching him.
Forcing his attention back on the task at hand he finished as he pocketed the orb of energy and set the woman on the ground gently. "I still find keeping my focus, on draining, a bit hard especially when something particularly distracting enters my mind. But, this went well." He said, giving the small cream cat a smile.
"I'll call for Painite or Fluorite later to collect this from me, and anything else I manage to gather." Answering her unspoken questions unknowingly. "We should continue, I know this won't garner much for energy but Fluorite told me to keep from having a set location." Hence taking advantage of his neighborhood and the jogger he knew of. "I'll change it up in a few days and move to collecting somewhere else. I'm thinking I may take the time I remain here to plan something out for when I change locations."

The energy was visible to her eyes, growing softly as it collected until he finally tucked it away, explaining things to her lightly.
It was difficult to focus and gather the energy? That was certainly important to know, perhaps there was a way she could in the future help new recruits with the difficulty.
"You sound like a real strategiest" Dahlia complimented as she stood up, moving to follow after him. "It seems the negaverse did itself a favor recruiting you. Excellent job."
Military groups were often a little lax on the offering of praise, it seemed as though intimidation and punishment were better motivators. Dahlia disagreed however. It might only be her but she planned very much to praise and reward the agents and senshi. More flies with honey and all that.

"Perhaps, though I recieved help from Fluorite. She is the one who suggest bars and grabbing drunks, they don't put up a lot of a fight and tend to not remember things. I have to remember even as I am I can't take on people taller and stronger than myself, which is a lot of people. Her...I chose knowing she runs right after work, she's bound to be tired and weaker. The hells no the boots help to lean back and throw someone elses balance off, whilst maintaining my own." He spoke slowly as he leaned down to offer her a lift back up.
"It seems Captain Fluorite shares your opinion, that I'll do well. I hope I can, that I don't let anyone down especially the General who brought me in to this. He's given me the ability to be a part of this war, for that I want to do my best." Not to mention Painite, he didn't wish to upset her in some fashion.
"Come on, the nights still young and I have more to gather. By the way...are you able to bring others with you to where everyone gathers? I've only been there once and am unable to go there on my own. If perhaps you are able to maybe you can take me from time to time." So that he could meet others and turn in his own gathered energy.

Fluorite. The name was incredibly familiar and yet... "I believe I have met her before. The night of my enlightenment in fact" Things were fuzzy.. and she hadn't seen the girl again since that night, but Dahlia was quite certain that was the name of the subordinate that had been with Laurelite and her that rainy night. She sounded pretty clever and Benitoite seemed fond of her, so the cat made a note to try and hunt down the captain sometime herself.
His enthusiasm and sense of responsibility drew forth a pleased nod from Dahlia. It was strange to feel proud for someone she hardly knew.. but she felt it nonetheless.
"Let's go" She agreed, happy and excited to participate in the hunt, even as a bystander. To his question though she offered a soft shake of the head, her ears dipping back apologetically. "If" And that was a big if. Because she really wasn't sure.. and somehow doubted she had the power. "I am capable of it then I don't know how. So we are in the same boat I'm afraid."
"I'll have to ask sometime though and if I can I'd be happy to oblidge"

"Fluorite is, was, helpful in so many ways. I owe quite a bit to her, if it were not for her I wouldn't know how to collect energy or to pull out the crystal used for communicating." He spoke, while walking down the side walk at a slow pace. She was no normal cat so what enlightenment? Had she been a cat for those senshi? He'd heard about them, had Dahlia gone through similar to himself? It seemed like everyone went through the same, at least they all had that in common.
"If you can it would be helpful, I'd appreciate it if you could get me there if you are able to." Much appreciated it would be, if Dahlia could get him down there, it would be much easier for him. "I could turn in energy that way if I can't get in touch with Fluorite or Painite then." As both had lives, he knew Fluorite had one, and there was no telling if when he called for energy pick up that either would be around to hear his call.
It seemed he was making friends, more and more recently. Or was working toward friendships with many people, and not all of them were within the negaverse but enough were. It seemed joining in on this war had another up side, he was gaining friendships he'd other wise have never gained. He still would have those none negaverse friendships he was making, but add the two together and it was a surprise for the blond. And this seemed to be another friendship he was making.

She listened with soft interest as he spoke, nodding when need be, her eyes otherwise watching the streets for another target. The streets were unsurprisingly quiet. Even for the city it seemed the nighttime terrorists kept most intelligent people tucked away in their beds.
Dahlia was in no hurry to find anyone though, and was in far less of a hurry to 'go home' or leave her new companion. The conversation might be simple but she was enjoying his company quite a bit. Friends.. it was an interesting thought.
A boy.. a magical solider in a secret war for their planet. And a talking cat. Walking down the street in the middle of the night. It was funny really, but it wasn't the bad kind of funny. Friendship it seemed came in many different shapes and sizes.
