Where Hel saw an opening she lunged again only to find her wrist caught in the other Senshi's grasp. This was bad, sure it coated her fist in a fine powder, but what good would slowing her do now that they were so close and she was being grabbed?
"They would be if all the Senshi would simply leave the Negaverse alone, we wouldn't need that energy if we didn't have to try and stop you." She struggled in the grasp slightly tugging her arm realizing just how much stronger the other girl was compared to her. "Well that isn't my fault so how about we leave this world alone so it doesn't end the same huh?"
Suddenly she was falling back stumbling slightly, it was then she got to the heart of the matter, a wind of feathers shot at her easily blowing her ash away, not only that but she felt the gloves on her arm split as thin lines of bright crimson welled in their place. She was being cut by feathers of all things!
Hissing slightly she stumbled forward regaining her balance after being blown about, all her ash blown away and causing creepy spots of snow like ash to build around them. "If she's no interest then why do you fight along side those who aimlessly follow her? You could join those who have a goal, a plan, a leader. You could have a family that would protect you, you're normal family and so much more!"
She jumped again both hands out wide chopping down at the other girls shoulders, she had to slow her down, keep her talking, and pray she wasn't able to use that feather attack again.

She paused for a moment as the feathers started to float back down to earth, the magic wilting away from them, leaving them nothing but fluffy down. They seemed to have done some work. Lines of blood welled up on her arms.
"I can't just renounce my powers." She said, opening her arms out wide. "I don't fight for people for a queen that isn't mine. I only fight if I have to, and it's because they are hurting someone, breaking the law. I don't seek out the Negaverse." The last part was barely a whisper. She didn't know why she was trying to convince this..traitor that what she did was right.
There was further pause at the last of Hel's words. Those struck home somewhere deep inside her. "I have a family." She said slowly, almost not noticing that Hel was coming back at her. Her arms connected with Grus's shoulders, and she gasped at the pain on both sides of her neck. "What more is there?"

"No you can't renounce them, I couldn't either but you can use them to fight for a better reason. A fight that has order, a plan, a goal. That will end with a world at peace separate from the courts of other planets!"
Even as her hands struck her shoulders Hel did not move to continue her attack, instead she stood right in front of the other Senshi, hands firmly planed on her shoulders ash leaking all over her like the weight of the world. The weight of her family, her friends, the fighting.
"What more? A purpose behind your power, a hope, a chance to do something to make a difference." Slowly the ash stopped raining from her hands, this one seemed to at least question things a little. Maybe she wasn't under the sway of the Cat's or other Senshi. Somewhere in Hel's heart she had, hope? Hope that this Senshi would see thing's her way.
"What more could you want, then the weight of the world off your shoulders?" Tilting her head back red eyes and pale skin where revealed with her two black pigtails and a painfully pitying smile. "I think we all could do with that." Even as she spoke, her magic fading at her will she dusted some of the ash off Grus' shoulders, literally pulling weight away.
"Think about it, you could be part of what finally puts this stupid war to an end."
And with that Hel was gone, vanishing in a cloud of ashes to leave the other Senshi alone to dwell on what she said. If she looked around she might have spotted Hel lingering on the rooftop of a near by school, catching a glimpse of the girls last actions before she vanished on the far side. She could be sure of one thing though; she would see more of Hel someday.

Grus stood, her eyes widening as she ash leaked over her shoulders, numbing them with weight. This was it. This girl would finish her off here and now...
But she didn't. She kept talking. Talking what should have been nonsense to the Sailor Soldier. There was no way she could think like this, it was her duty to keep the Destiny City, her family, safe from people Like Hel who used their magic to take what wasn't their's. Yes, the Corrupt Senshi kept talking.
And Grus kept listening.
She often felt like she couldn't do anything with her power. The inability to fight had tortured her from day one of awakening. But she wanted to make a difference, she wanted to do something for this world besides hope that someone would come along and help every time she faced even the weakest of Negaverse agents.
"What more could you want, then the weight of the world off your shoulders?"
The girl was reversing her own power. Grus blinked in confusion. If she wasn't here to waste her, then what....
Then she disappeared. Grus looked around as the ash settled, but the Dark Little Red Riding Hood was gone into the night. She shook herself, as a horse might when frightened. Rubbing her eyes, she sighed, feeling close to tears. What this girl had insinuated sounded so lovely...but part of her felt it was wrong.
She sat where she had once stood, and covered her face in her hands.
