"Interesting, the dark mirror are those other ones that aren't quite enemies but aren't exactly the same are they? I was told they are allies of a sort." Witches were witches though and the fact they were another step further from being on the same team didn't help their case in his mind.
The rest sit well enough with him and he'd look for any further communications from them about that in the future. "That kind of folklore runs a little closer to home for various reasons so I keep tabs on things that run adjacent to it." However, he figured it would be a bit bothersome to tell someone outside his family why that was the case.
Moving ahead in the direction they indicated, he kept that rusty ring of keys wrapped around his fist like a set of brass knuckles. It wasn't ideal but it would help in a pinch at disorienting someone before reaching in for their starseed. He really had no qualms about pulling one from a senshi, if anything he quite liked the irony that he was settling back into a family tradition of sorts that stood so very detached from his normal lifestyle and that of what his parents did.
Spotting someone ahead, they both looked and felt like an outsider so he took a moment to move in close and wait for Miyamoto to provide coverage.

"They are, as far as I know they tend to remain neutral. They'll fight if they need to, on a case by case basis, but they are chaos when it comes to their signature. It does varry from my own, you can feel the difference, they can work with us though since they also collect energy." It wasn't a group he'd go picking a fight with, they were similar enough to himself that he accepted them. Senwhi on the other side, on orders side, he would seek the destruction of every time possible. They were the enemy.
As they got closer, as he could see them, he nodded his head once. "Can you feel how they differ from myself?" Because he himself didn't feel like an officer but he still felt like chaos. An order senshi still felt like a senshi but order...it was wrong. There were similarities and differences in feelings. It was worth it to get used to them, so you knew whaty ou were hunting.
"You can also feel how their aura doesn't over power your own aura." Where as his own would over power the lieutenants. It was Mioyamoto actually teaching, something he'd never done, and giving a lesson without him really thinking about it. Teaching someone to hunt and to do it smartly. "If they feel like order and they feel weaker, or the same as you, than you go for them. If you have back up, or can get back up, than you can go for a stronger aura." There was still always the risk of whoever you went for, even if weaker in aura, having physical skills to back themselves up. They could also have really good magic, even if it was weak, such as his own being enough to disorient a person due to the emotional shock it caused.
"Do you want to try and fight them or do you want me to just go in and disable them?"

"Alright, I can keep that in mind." He still didn't like it but if they were mostly non-combative then that would be alright enough for now. Follow-up questions on that topic would have to come later when he reconvened with Alexandre. If anything he was sure Alexandre would be up for talking about it, they'd been more than forthcoming about things since they'd showed up bloodied at his door just as he'd been more lenient on their requests.
A sharp nod, no need to really speak up as he could clearly tell the difference in things. Not quite power so much as just the difference in feel between the senshi that stood next to him and the one that stood before him. As he neared the other senshi though, that power bit did ring true. It was just the same sort of feel, not as oppressive as the eternal's signature or Alexandre's. It still felt odd taking orders from a senshi but everything they were saying made sense and followed the guidelines he'd read in the training guide.
Thinking about it just for another moment, he turned back and eyed Miyamoto carefully. "Both, I'll go in first since I need to test something then you follow up?" With that he moved forward and broke into a sprint. The distance was easy to close and he threw out a punch with his make shift brass knuckles at the senshi. It was a suckers punch but hopefully, with the added boost they'd get disoriented and he could go from there without intervention.

"Sounds good." Nodding his head once the eternal kept himself ready to jump in if, and when, needed. He'd let the lieutenant start and he'd put his magic to good use if and when it was needed. Watching the senshi flinch, head moving with the hit, he smiled as he watched - how nice to see. He'd be happy seeing the senshi dead, as they certainly would wind up dead by the end of the night.
Watching the senshi made to retaliate, swinging back, he kept himself back and remained out of things. He knew they could see him in the background, could feel him, they knew he was here and watching. They had to have some fear for him being here with the frost gathering abotu his feet as he stood there silently.
Watching he too ka step closer, slowly, because he really was on edge and wanting to jump in. He liked a good fight - he liked taking on order. He didn't like to hold back, even though he could, it wasn't the easiest of things for him. But he would respect the other and he'd hold back.

That senshi had hit back, not with magic but with fists. That he could handle but he took the moment to move and step back to avoid as much of it as he could. But when he gave them distance then magic came and he didn't hesitate. "Miyamoto, now!"
Bracing himself as some sort of light came and stunned him, he held his arms in front of his face similarly to how boxers did. He'd picked it up from more than one of his cousins and it seemed to fit with his stature. This would be over soon, as soon as he could see enough to grab what he needed. He just... needed help from this damn corrupt. Now that would mean he was tolerating two of them, god how his ancestors would be rolling in their graves.

Hearing the other call for his help he stepped in, moving quick on his slippered feet, he got in close enough to the two that he could launch his magic. Lucky for the lieutenant his magic wouldn't touch them - just order.
"Frozen blood." He was aiming for the strongest attack he had, at least in his opinion, he found it stronger tha nhis eternal but that was really just a matter of how both magics worked. He prefered this one and wished he could use it more. The other might not see his magic, see what the senshi would, but he'd certainly see the results of it. "It'll make them think they're blood is freezing..." He whispered from the others side. The other was a doctor - surely he could figure what that might feel like for the poor senshi.
"Do what you need, they won't be doing a thing for the next half a minute."

Blinking as his vision cleared he watched both in a bit of shock and wonder at the enemy. Only for a moment thought before he dove his hand in and pulled their starseed out. He barely looked at the thing before he sent it away to subspace and cleansed his hands with more sanitizer. It had all been done before the senshi hit the ground and he had stepped back.
Nodding to the corrupt he really just felt like leaving the senshi there. There was no care with this like he had with the ailing man. This was just a hunt, not a mercy. "One more down, I thank you. Perhaps in the future, we can work together again. If you need any medical care I can do that as well." An olive branch of sorts because he'd have to play nice and at least this one's magic didn't need him wearing headphones to keep his ears from bursting.
