She was unsure exactly what to do at first. Aurora had picked herself up now yes, but she was attacking an Eternal. One of their own. The rage rippling off her small friend was palpable. Was this an after effect of the other night? But then, Requiem wanted them to fight each other. While she could understand the applications she could have just requested them outright to merely spar. She didn't have to add insult to injury by smacking Aurora around. It seemed almost as if time had slowed down. Everything crept along inch by inch as she tried to decide what to do. There was really only one thing she could do. Leaping forward, she aimed to tackle Aurora back to the ground. She'd let off an attack on the more powerful senshi which would probably piss her off and then was trying to get physical. It could only end in bad things for her friend.

Requiem staggered backward as the effect of Aurora's ability sunk in. Love - it was a familiar but distant feeling, but one she had grown to resent. One that she had tried so hard to not let herself feel. And now it was being used as a weapon against her. In combat. By a... an underling. No. This was unacceptable. As the euphoria began to fade away, it was replaced with a red hot rage against Aurora. "You stupid little b***h," Requiem growled as she clapped her hands together, fingertips aimed at the Dark Mirror Senshi of Romance. "REQUIEM COFFIN MUMMY!" Quote: Attack #1b: Requiem Coffin Mummy! With this shout, Sailor Requiem mummifies her foe and has them trapped inside a coffin. The coffin is locked shut and the foe is mummified, making it difficult to break free. The binds from the mummification can be torn easily, but with little room inside the coffin, this may prove to be a challenge. The coffin remains locked for two posts or thirty seconds, and then the coffin can be easily opened. While trapped inside the coffin, Sailor Requiem and her allies can escape, concentrate on other enemies, or attack the coffin. If a powerful attack is delivered to the coffin, it will shatter and the foe inside will face the impact of the blow and may face damage from the shattering fragments of the coffin. Sailor Requiem can only use this power once every five of her own posts. As soon as her target was trapped inside her coffin, she charged forward to kick the coffin down. If her foot didn't smash through the coffin, it would at least knock the coffin backwards, and hopefully crack on a tombstone on its way down. For that moment, Requiem truly didn't care what happened to one her newest recruits and whatever consequences she may face. Nobody makes Requiem think about love and lives to tell about it. Unacceptable.

So this was what it felt like to be dead. Touta's intervention had jolted her back to semi-reality, but she had no time to react to what happened next. It felt all so familiar being locked up in an enclosed space, though this time not quite as sticky and smelling of fruit. And this time, instead of being horrified, she felt strangely comfortable. Aurora didn't bother struggling. She was about to meet her mother in the afterlife. What a relief that would be. Except that relief wouldn't come. Only blinding seering pain. She felt the coffin falling backwards as her tomb smacked against something hard, her mother's tombstone, violently jerking her head in a way a head shouldn't be jerked. Her darkness was replaced first with stars, then with.. nothing as she briefly lost consciousness. Then the flashing lights as she came to. .. wait, where was she...?

And then there was a coffin. In the place where her friend's body should be. Racing towards it, she tried to protect what held her friend. It was so big and heavy. And now Requiem was kicking it. No. No no no no no. She banged a fist against it. "Aurora!" Dammit. She was proud that Aurora had fought back, but now she was stuck in this ******** coffin for forever how long. A wave of guilt washed over her. She had failed to protect her friend. Her anger turned quickly to Requiem. Pale blue eyes narrowed as her head whipped around to face the Eternal. She didn't care if she ended up in a coffin herself. All she wanted was for Aurora to be out and safe. Who knew what she was going through in there. If she was even alive. Still clinging to the coffin, Toutatis folded in the middle fingers of her right hand and thumb. Pointing her index finger and pinkie at Requiem. "She showed you love now I'll show you horror! Toutatis Horror Creeps!" As Toutatis' form sloughed away, it was replaced with whatever Requiem might fear. A sense of horror and dread would fill the other senshi. For the moment it was enough to hopefully distract her so that Toutatis could figure out how to get Aurora out of this dumb thing. Quote: * How it Works - Sailor Toutatis casts an illusion on herself that fills the viewer with dread and horrifies them. * Radius - 5 feet around Toutatis * Duration - 10 seconds * Damage Summary - Stun or disorientation attack. Everyone, except Toutatis, within the radius of Creeps will watch as Toutatis disappears and is replaced with something that they have a known fear of. Only things they known themselves to fear will appear. The illusion is different for everyone even if they are in the same vicinity as others viewing the illusion * Avoidable through - Direct attack. Any direct attack will cause the illusion to dissipate. * Frequency of usage - Once per battle.

Before Requiem was able to react and try to snap Toutatis's neck, the scout had already cast her ability on the Eternal Senshi. At once, Toutatis disappeared and was replaced with none other than... General-Queen Tanzanite. Requiem took a step back in a mixture of fright, anger and disbelief. Tanzanite. The woman who had mercilessly tortured her parents before her very eyes as she begged for them to be let go. The woman who transformed into that awful monster, the giant black phoenix. Her greatest enemy who she was forced to ally beside. After a few seconds, the illusion had faded and Toutatis had returned in her place. It was all an illusion, a trick cast by an underling. "Do you have any idea who you are messing with, you dumb cunts!?" she shouted as she charged at Toutatis aiming to punch the silver-haired b***h square in the nose. "I'm Sailor mother ******** Requiem, bitches!"

As Tanzanite haunted Requiem, Aurora's own addled thoughts shifted to more bloodthirsty (yet still addled) ones. Kill kill kill~... DIE DIE DIE~....It lasted only ten seconds, but it was one of the most horrible ten seconds of her life, writhing in that tomb of hers. ..Wait, she could move. The bandages were coming loose. She wiggled just enough to grab that mirror of hers and open it up. "If you ever, ever, ever need anything, use your compact mirror and call me. No matter when or where or what is happening, call. Especially if you're in trouble. Okay?" Leto's words were never more than comforting than they were now. Though her head felt ready to split open, she had to do this. Touta's and her life depended on it. Now if only Leto would answer and make it in time...

There was this horrible thing when it came to her attacks. Either it sent people off into a horrible rage against the illusion or once they figured out it was just that they went after Toutatis. It was good for stunning in short periods of time but sticking around generally wasn't the plan she often used after wards. She still couldn't figure out how to get Aurora out of the coffin. Hearing muffled movement from in side, Toutatis looked up soon enough to receive a punch to the face. Which ultimately sent her flopping back flat on her back as the wind was knocked out of her. Eyes fluttering as blood from her nose began to dribble back into her eyes and blind her. Toutatis managed to somehow push herself up onto one elbow. Blood trickling down her upper lip as she wiped away what had run into her eyes with the back of her hand. "If you....didn't want us to attack you then you should've kept your hands to yourself. I don't take orders from you and I sure as hell won't fight my friend for your enjoyment. Not after you flat out slap her. More like mother ******** queen b***h Requiem."

Leto felt that familiar but really annoying ~*tingle*~ of the compact mirror calling her. Luckily enough, Leto happened to be doing a whole lot of nothing at that point, having just slipped out of a mirror about to start her patrol. She pulled her compact out and flipped it open. "Helloooooo?~" Leto called into her mirror, "What's up buttercup? Why is so dark? Where are you?"
Yeah. Leto was really ******** confused.

What the ******** just happened?
Requiem was doing what to who now? That was not the call that Leto was expecting.
She quickly turned and slipped back into the mirror she came out of just moments before. When she moved through the surface of her exit mirror, she was already mid-run. She hopped over the gate to the cemetery and moved towards the surge of DMC power signatures.
Her eyes widened as she came to a skidding halt to one hell of a sight. She stared for a moment- the smashed coffin, with someone moving inside. Toutatis on the ground bleeding. Requiem screaming about killing someone. What was even the ********?
"What the <********> are you three doing?!" Her voice was loud, booming, and really ******** angry.

Requiem snapped around and turned to Eternal Sailor Leto with a smile. Thank god, a friend who would understand. Right? "I was trying to train these two recruits by having them spar each other and instead of doing as instructed they attacked me," Requiem explained angrily. "I only reacted the way I felt was appropriate. Hell, I was showing them restraint in dealing with their idiocy."

Another power signature blipped into the area. It felt like Chaos but Toutatis couldn't be sure. Her head was still reeling a bit from the punch to the face. Her head turned sharply to the sound of Leto's voice. It's volume causing her head to pound. She grasped at her right eye, smearing a bit more blood across her face. Not even attempting to get up at this point. Eyes narrowed lightly at Requiem. "You're wrong. You smacked Aurora across the face. How the ******** do you think she would have reacted? Then you shove her in that coffin and try to hurt her more. I wasn't going to stand around and let you hurt my friend."

Leto rolled her eyes and grumbled under her breath as she made her way towards the coffin. When she reached it, she kicked the lid of it open and bent to pull Aurora out of it. She dragged the unconscious girl back to the other two and plopped her on the ground between them. Every once in a while Leto would poke at Aurora with the toe of her boot.
With a long, heavy sigh, Leto rubbed at her temples with her eyes closed. After mentally counting to 10, she opened her eyes, facing Requiem first.
"Req... You gotta remember we're not the Blood Moon Court- not all of 'em are soldiers like we were. Play nice with the newbies or I'll kick your a**." She turned on her heel slightly to face Toutatis, giving Aurora a harder jab with her boot. "And you two! First of all, never treat one of your own with such disrespect. Secondly, Requiem and I do things a little differently than the rest of the older members of this Court. If you're willing to be trained by either of us, expect to get beat up."
Her hands rubbed her face a few times. "This is ******** ridiculous."

Leto's second or third jab woke her back up to a nice, drowsy state, but she didn't bother to open her eyes. Oh no. She listened quietly as the captain reprimanded the three of them. Something in her said that she should feel ashamed for what happened, guilty, but something else made her ever the more frustrated.
So with this shame and hurt and frustration and confusion, she stirred and sat up, and gazed over at the tombstone of her mother's. Requiem's coffin had chipped the stone when it fell. Not only had her supposed sister in arms humiliated her on her mother's grave, but she DEFILED it too.
Only one thing was certain in Aurora's concussed mind: she had to get out of here.
She stood, wobbling, and turned tired eyes over to her two superiors. "Please get off my mother's grave. Thank you." And then she just started walking.

At least Aurora seemed physically ok. Mentally and emotionally Toutatis was unsure. That did little to ease the anger that came from Leto's words. "Disrespect? She's the one that smacked Aurora without any provocation because Aurora screamed when she popped out of the ground and grabbed her ankle. How is that showing any respect towards Aurora? You don't expect respect from people you ******** earn it." She had to laugh at the ridiculousness of the situation. "So we're just suppose to stand here and let you higher ups smack us around because you do things 'differently' than the others. That is some ******** bullshit right there Leto and you know it. You might as well kick me to the ground and tell me to lick your boot at this point." She pointed an accusatory finger at the Captain. "If that's the way its gonna be then you can shove it up your asses and I'll make my own way. I expect to get beat up sure but this is utter ******** s**t."Lifting herself up off the ground now, Toutatis closed her right eye. It stung from the blood that had run into it and was watering heavily. She took a few steps in the direction that Aurora was heading before stopping to glare at Leto. "A good leader doesn't let her fellows beat on their people because they disappoint them over stupid s**t. That was not training. Way to fail on that one."They could both go spin for all she cared right now as she staggered off after Aurora, trying to catch up with her pink haired friend. Any faith she had in the higher ups shattered at this point. What a way to be let down.
