Eyeing her, one foot tapping gently on the pavement, she seemed so utterly casual about this. Did she not believe him? He wanted to laugh, to mock her, but he did neither of those things. She'd find out the truth very soon; perhaps too soon.
Approaching, closing what little distance there was between them, in a few quick strides he reached out with one hand. "This will hurt...I cannot help that, it hurts for everyone." He explained, as if that would somehow make the pain less or more bearable (he knew it wouldn't). His hand then rather than resting against her chest went through her chest. His hand searching, fingers seeking, and finally finding the treasure he sought he grasped it, fingers curled about it. It was a thrill that went down his spine as he held her life in his hand - oh how easily he could kill her. All he had to do was remove it. But no, no tonight wasn't the night for that (plus she was a civilian). His hand curled about the precious object he focused on the task at hand, even while his free arm went about her waist to steady her if she fell from the pain or tried to pull away; it wouldn't be good if she pulled away and his hand came out with her starseed.
Remembering his lessons he let his own eyes drop closed as he focused on what he needed to do. He had to focus his energy, and not all of it, into her starseed. If he pushed too much energy in...well the consequences would be bad; as would the outcome. Holding her tightly, he would not have her move away from him, he let his own energy flow from himself, down his arm and into his hand and right into her starseed.

Oh great, so now this crazy guy is going to make a move, Hannah though as he came at her with his hand outstretched to her chest. It would hurt? What?When his hand pushed right through her chest instead of simply pressing against it, her eyes were suddenly wide and frantic. Her right hand slipped up to his chest as she tried to push him away before the pain suddenly shot through her. The sensation of his fingers wrapped around her very being changed when she felt his energy flowing into her. Now it was time for panic. The heat that she felt inside of her made her feel like her entire body was on fire. She screamed, loud, long and guttural and the sound was of pure agony. Her body thrashed as she tried desperately to get away from him, useless with his arm tightly around her waist. Hannah -- No, Halite now -- let out a choked sob as Chaos filled her. What had she done?

He had warned her, he had told her. And he didn't lie, he was horrible at it really. Those who were close and knew him knew this fact. he could twist things, omit things, and be very literal, or loose, with things but he couldn't and didn't outright lie. It wasn't his fault he wasn't believed, that people thought he was lying, making up stories, or just plain crazy. Now though as he felt himself draining and tiring he took the chance to crack an eye open and see if it had worked.
it was as he saw the change happen that he let up and then stopped. Letting his hold on her starseed go he pulled his hand out from her chest and yet managed to keep a loose hold on her - a very loose hold - he felt utterly drained and tired. His knees wanted to give out and they nearly did as he stood, for once his perfect posture failing him as he slumped forward toward her.
"I did tell you it would hurt. I apologize." Breathing heavier as he kept close as if she could support him and keep him from falling, she likely wasn't holding up much better than he himself was. "As I said though - it cannot be avoided. I went through it as well and more than once, three times." Once when he joined and once with each promotion. The pain he could still picture in his own head.
"Tell me....what's the name you now have?" He asked, something of fondness, and pride, entering his tired voice. He really needed to sleep but he also couldn't leave her and she would have questions, he didn't want to cut and run and thus neglect her, but he really was tired and now them being out like this was dangerous for them both. He couldn't defend them if something happened, he was sure he couldn't teleport or put up much of a fight either. Thinking, as quick as his mind could, about where they could go and how. Did she live close enough? Could they make it? Gonna turn in, kinda getting really tired. I'll tag back tomorrow.

Halite let out a choked gasp as Benitoite's hand slid out of her chest. Her entire body felt as if it was trembling as she did everything in her power to keep herself standing- which became increasingly difficult when Benitoite seemed to put some of his weight on her. With a few sharp breaths, she muttered, "Halite." How did she know that? What exactly happened? What the ******** was a Halite? And most importantly what exactly had she just gotten herself into? Her eyes closed for a moment while she focused on her breathing and not letting her legs buckle beneath her. "What..." she shook her head to attempt to rid it of the cloudiness she felt with the lack of energy, her chest still throbbing. She wanted nothing more than to crumble to the ground and sleep right there were they were.

When he felt his legs could be forced, by sheer force of will, to hold up his weight he moved back just enough she could look down at herself, and he too could see what he'd just done. The uniform looked good, fitting somehow. He'd managed to do it and not mess up, he really didn't want to see what would happen if he'd messed up.
"You should get some rest Halite, you'll need it. But I also need to impart what information I can upon you. Though I don't think it will be something you can focus on right now, or something I'm strong enough to go over right now." They'd have to meet up so he could speak with her more freely, he wouldn't have her some clueless Lieutenant. At least he wouldn't let her be clueless for long.
"We need a time and place to meet up, tomorrow." The sooner the better in his opinion. And he could always bring her down to the rift then.

When Benitoite stepped away from her, Halite looked down at herself and cringed. That was awful lot of skin showing in her middrift... But the shoes were fabulous! "We can meet at the Art Gallery? On the steps? Since that's where you followed me from..." She smirked at him. "How do I.... Stop being Halite? How do I change back? I can't go home like this." Her brows furrowed as she stared down at herself. Suddenly incredibly overwhelmed, she wanted nothing more than to go back to being Hannah so she could crawl into bed and pretend that this was all just a nightmare.

It was a lot of skin, more than he normally liked. It was what he disliked about senshi uniforms among other things. But the outfit still somehow seemed to suit her. And uniforms in the Negaverse he believed somehow fit the personality of the agent, even if the agent didn't believe that it did. "Of course, that would work well." Nodding his head as he looked around. They were still out in the open, he had taken quite the risk corrupting her here in the open. But he didn't think he'd be able to get her into an alley to do it, he had a feeling that pepper spray would have been put to good use had he tried.
"Follow me, it's best we not be out in the open. It was a risk even doing what I've done so far." And he really didn't like putting himself, or others, at risk. As he said this he motioned to a nearby alley way, this city really had a lot of alleyways to offer shelter to the cities terrorists and it's agents of chaos.
"Just focus on the changing of clothing, of being Hanna. The old clothing, what you had been wearing." he said as he stepped into the alley and demonstrated, as much as you could anyway. His uniform shifting back to his normal clothing. Turning to face her and watch was the seventeen year old Alexandre Evans.

When Benitoite lead her into the alley, Halite had to lean against the wall for support. Her eyes closed and her breathing finally slowed and steadied. When she did, she focused on what she was wearing before this all went down - which wasn't difficult because it was a fabulous outfit - and the guise of Halite disappeared. When she opened her eyes to the darkness, she saw the seventeen year old boy standing in front of her. A teenager. She was almost 10 years older than him. Some kid was the one that shoved his hand into her chest and corrupted her very being? What was this world coming to? This was all far too much for her to take in. She closed her eyes for another moment, shaking her head. "Can I go home yet? This... This was exhausting. And I feel like I have a lot to think about."

"Of course. I won't keep you long. Though you will meet me tomorrow evening if that's acceptable to you. I can't bring you where I should, corrupting a person takes too much energy, but I will tomorrow evening. I will tell you what I know about this war as well, it is best you be informed as much as possible before you fight anyone." Not to mention he didn't want her out on her own for a while; till he knew she could handle herself in a fight and wouldn't take on someone too strong.
"Tomorrow evening can you meet me back here? Come as you are now. I wouldn't want you being attacked on your way here." He would do all that he could, even if it still didn't feel like enough, to keep her safe till she was able to hold her own.
"Have a good sleep..Halite." Who knows what tomorrow morning would bring, though more importantly what tomorrow night would bring.

Hannah nodded at him before turning on her heel (the one time she would have difficulty walking in her sky-high shoes). "I'll be here tomorrow night. Goodnight."
Her right hand raised in a half-wave before she moved back into the street and hailed a cab- walking wasn't an option no matter how close she lived.
