Welcome to Gaia! ::

Benitoite indeed wasn't a agent of chaos to take lightly, though he doubted he had the same reputation as others, he knew his worth and knew what he himself was capable of. He was not in the mood to play nice or verbally spar - not with this senshi. He disliked her to put it very simply. He had once, seemingly so long ago, thought he could perhaps bring her over to his side. He had failed though, all thanks to the ambush, and now he was enemies with her and he would see to it that before he died she met her demise. Whether that be by his hand or someones elses it almost didn't matter, almost being the keyword, it would be good for her to be dead but he did hope that whenever it happened it would be by his own hand. She was a danger, a strong senshi, and he was sure that one day someone would kill her. He had to have that confident sureness about him, had to hope that all senshi and knights would either change sides or be put down, as the war needed to end one day. He couldn't handle the idea of it lasting forever; or at least as long as he lived.

"Indeed, I plan to work for it. I wouldn't have it any other way - their would be no pleasure in it if you simply allowed me to off you." He spoke as a smirk formed across his features, features which might otherwise be handsome or even perhaps cute, as he settled into a stance as he waited for her opening move.

He was not expecting her to jump over him, why would he think that? It made no sense, you'd expect to be attacked head on. As quickly as he could he turned toward her in a whirl of fabric.



The other one was certainly weak in resolve, although that was up for debate honestly. On one hand he didn't like fighting, couldn't handle it, but on the other hand he was also determined not to let Tsui down and leave her to handle this senshi and the General. He wanted to help the eternal who had helped him, and might help him further when this was over.

Staring down at the senshi at his feet he wanted to help him, offer him a hand up, but he doubted that would be accepted. Actually, he figured it might just land him in a world of pain and hurt if he tried; as it would leave him rather open to such things. It was, at least for him, a relief when the other stood up although he didn't show it. He didn't need to seem weaker than he surely already did; he was well aware of how weak he must seem.

"I see...Chaldene, senshi of will'o' the wisp..." He wished he could say more, something nicer, but he didn't get to and it would be very odd anyway. Ducking the incoming strike from the others fist he took a few steps away from him, unknowingly putting distance between them and the other two fighters.

"Sheena..." Surprise colored his words as he took a moment to turn green eyes onto the guardian cat. "B-but I don't want to fight him." Yes, he knew how bad it sounded and how weak he made himself seem but it was true. He didn't want to. "I - I have to though...don't I? For Tsui." And he turned his attention back onto the long blond haired senshi of wasps and brought both hands up and curled his fingers into fists.

"None of that Chaldene," she said quickly when he said he didn't want to fight. She was a go getter and she believed in getting things done and right now what needed to get done was getting rid of the nega pair that had intruded on them. Not that Sheena hadn't done the same thing.

When he mentioned Tsui, she turned and looked, figuring he meant the senshi fighting the general. She turned back giving a quick nod. "That's right, she counting on you and rather preoccupied, so your own you own. But don't worry I'll help you."

"That's right, fist up, Chaldene," she spouted getting out of Vespa's path lest she be trampled. "Now fight," she spouted darting quickly around the back of Vespa, the tiny cat eager and full of energy.

If Sheena’s goal was to distract Vespa then it was a job well done, because the Wasp senshi had to skip in the middle of his run to avoid hitting her and he spun around on his heel to see what the hell she was doing. Even though she was an enemy, there was something about hitting a cat that seemed exceptionally cruel to him, but if she was aiming an attack at Benitoite, then Vespa would bite the bullet and try and take her out. None would harm the general, not on his watch!

”Chaldene Wisp Lure!”

“Oh no!” Vespa said with a spat, stopping dead in his tracks from his pursuit to the guardian cat and turning right back around to face the other senshi, just in time for the attack to hit him head on. He had raised his hands to defend himself, but what he saw were little blue wisps, forming right before his eyes and his own multi-colored visor only adding to the chill he felt when he looked at them. “What in the…”

He reached for it, but it disappeared, only to reappear a few inches away. Suddenly the fight was gone from his mind, and the Wasp senshi kept his gaze on the little wisps… and not on the fist that seemed to fly out of nowhere from Chaldene.

Had Tsui not been fully engaged in the fight against someone that she knew wanted her head, she would have probably laughed at just how ridiculously effective Chaldene’s attack was against the super senshi, but given just how much this general in particular wanted her dead (for completely justifiable reasons), it was probably best not to look away. She managed to clip his face and that didn't work too well in keeping her ego in check, and the tugging at his capes backfired as he came crashing into her. He wasn't a tall person, but neither was Tsui, causing a breathless gasp out of her as she went falling backwards with him. His threat didn't go unheard, though, and she sneered in response. "Hey, don't knock my outfit- it's versatile and gets the job done! And I'd like to see you TRY!"

Now Benitoite was trying to get up, and Tsui figured that the best advantage would be to keep him on the ground. She continued to dig and claw at his cape, though never once considering the long term strategy nor just how dangerous a position she was in. It wouldn't have taken him much to stand back up, or take advantage of the situation and strike her down, but she thought little of that as she continued her fight. All the while, she found down that feeling of guilt that she had been struggling with for so long... about how she felt responsible for Bazzite's fate. It wasn't really her fault, was it?

And honestly, what good would an apology do for Benitoite? He wouldn't never accept it... and she couldn't blame him.

She turned watching Chaldene and her eyes went absolutely wide. Chaldene was ready, he was ready for more. She felt giddy and almost let herself get distracted. She ran over to him skidding to a halt and sliding past him.

"Your pen," she hissed out, giving him an urging look. This wasn't a calm moment, she needed to do this the fastest way she could. She was poised to catch the instrument and really hoped he was a good toss.

The look he gave her was an extremely curious one as the pens was given up to her. He clearly didn't understand, but she suppose that made sense seeing as this was the first time it had happened to him. She ignored the curious glance and swooped it up and her tail and pressed her paws around and watching it change.

Moment later Chaldene had a new henshin pen and Sheena quickly tossed it back to him, grinning. His expression was a surprised one and she grinned momentarily before he asked what to do and she was back to business.

"Call out Chaldene Moon Power Make-Up! Quickly."

The sock to the jaw sent Vespa sprawling to the floor and the Wasp senshi was surprised that he could even remain conscious after a blow like that. He could feel his teeth rattle within his mouth and the ground came hard, much harder than he was expecting. How could grass feel so rough?! For the brief moment he was able to keep his eyes open, the world was spinning, faster and faster like a merry-go-round, and the little blue wisps continued to mock him, dancing just beyond his reach.

He wasn't sure where Benitoite had gone nor how the rest of the fight was going, but he could tell that he wouldn't be conscious for much longer. He tried to push himself back to his feet, but it was no use... the senshi held quite a punch, and all Vespa had the strength to do was mumble softly, certain that Benitoite wouldn't be able to hear him as he felt the pull to unconscious. "Benitoite... I'm sorry... I couldn't..."

Leave it to Benitoite to be able to hold such an articulate conversation in the middle of a fight, Tsui thought, not so secretly annoyed by this fact. Though they were finally on equal grounds in terms of strength and power, he still managed to not only hold a conversation beyond battle grunts and shouts, but could still control it. While Benitoite may have been able to carry on a conversation and fight, Tsui was simply more hands on, so in retaliation to the General's banter, she let out a sneer and instead tried to focus on shutting that damned mouth of his. But he was making it extremely hard, as gloved fingers tore strands of hair from her scalp and kept his face out of arm's reach. "You talk too much, you know that?!"

She never thought of how painful hair pulling could be and all those years scoffing at classmates that resorted to that tactic were coming back to haunt her. Before she could give in to desperation, though, a flash of light caught her eye, followed by a surge of Order aura, and despite the painful hold she was in, she twisted her head to see the cause of the commotion. The Corrupted senshi was on the ground, Sheena the Guardian cat was unharmed, but most noticeable of all was Chaldene's appearance!

"Nice upgrade!" Tsui shouted from her position, too excited for Chaldene to realize that she had left an opening for the general. "I knew you had it in you, Chaldene!"

By the end of the evening, and with the battle over, Chaldene had found himself somewhere to live. He hadn't planned on it or even thought it would happen but Tsui had gotten out of him what had happened to him earlier in the evening, before this whole mix up. He hated talking about his home life, even his friends didn't know about it, and yet he'd told her; mind you his head had been ducked or eyes averted the whole time. In the end though he'd had to convince the senshi of tigers not to do anything stupid...and she decided he would move in with her, wasn't that a bit rash of her to decide so suddenly?

Though he supposed she was treating him well because he was a fellow senshi and he was in need. So he left with her, after thanking Sheena and parting way with the cat, as he followed the tiger senshi to her home so he could crash for the night. he'd move his things in tomorrow when it was light out and he had time to do so.
