Character name General BenitoiteLocation: Outside Action: Arriving and heading towards Chalcanthite. Benitoite had been out gathering energy, just enough to fulfill his needs for the week, he wasn't looking for a fight or anything of the sort tonight. It looked like fate had other plans for him when the call came over his communications device. The idea of one of their own, another officer, being kidnapped had him wanting to grind his teeth. The idea of order kidnapping anyone chaos aligned annoyed him, got his blood boiling, never mind the fact their own side had kidnapped senshi and knights in the past. The fact order was making a move, and doing this of all things, was what bothered him. While he wanted this war to move forward, towards some end, he didn't want them making the moves.
Growling softly the blond was glad to have a location so he could teleport himself to the gathering point. When he did arrive he was summoning his spear as he madeh is way towards a familiar general. "Chalcanthite." A simple greeting, looking up at the other, pale eyes cold and stormy. He knew the job they had - deal with order. He was more than ready to get in there and start a blood bath, the grip on his weapons shaft proof of this.
"Ready for this?" He questioned the other, glancing to those around Chalcanthite...a team perhaps? Good. Taking a moment, a single moment, he pulled a burner phone from subspace and sent out a fast message to his own partner to let him know what was going on, that there was a battle going on and he'd be safe. Hitting send he sent the phone back top subspace. Now he was ready.

Page Santa Maria NovellaLocation: Upstairs Action: Questioning life choices. He'd been of the opinion they should kill their captive and make it look like something it wasn't, a robbery gone bad or something similar. It wouldn't have been hard to fake, at least he didn't think it would be, and since dead people couldn't talk it would have worked out. But that had taken too long and something was going on - a lot was going on. Choices were being snatched from them and his head was spinning and pounding as he felt his stomach knot up, the darkness he felt only multipled by lesser signatures that were equally dark, it was enough to have his hands shaking with nerves. He'd have sat on his hands, to hide this fact, were he sitting down but he wasn't. Instead he tried to press himself to a wall, to keep himself from pacing with nerves, they were screwed and he could sense it and no doubt they all sensed it too.
Watching the other knight, the one who had dragged him into the room, head off the pale eyed page took a deep breath before following the other. He didn't know why, it was likely a very bad idea, but he followed anyway. He didn't know what else to do and he wasn't sure he wanted to trust the ones i nthe room...though he wasn't sure he should trust this one either. Maybe he could find an escape somehow? If he could slip out of here, out of this mess, he very well would. He wans't interested in dieing today. This, following the other knight, might help him keep alive till he could get out of here.

Knight Halle of LysitheaLocation: stairs, just about to first floor Action: heading downstairs to blockade as needed Sensing someone behind him, Halle turned to look at the page who decided to follow. Considering what he was planning to do, he wasn't sure if this was the best or worst place for them to be. As they hurried down the stairs, he took a moment to ask, "Hey, have you been to your wonder yet?"

Corrupt Ilmari of ChastityLocation: outside. Action: arriving, taking initiative, offering his assistance. For his own part, Ilmari hadn’t been able to sleep. He’d done a patrol earlier and planned to go to bed, then get up extra early tomorrow……but it hadn’t been in the cards. Good thing he did too, because almost as soon as he’d finished his extra large, “b***h, just power through it and make things work” green tea and powered up, he had to answer his communicator. Ilmari was more than awake enough to understand the words he heard, yes. But the very idea of the situation made no sense to him? Order liked to get up on those useless, grandstanding moral high-horses about being better than everybody else in town. None of them would have kidnapped someone from the Negaverse……right?
Except Faustite never would have lied about a situation as serious as this. By the time the message ended, Ilmari steeled himself in preparation for the summoning to whisk him off.
For a moment after he materialized elsewhere in town, Ilmari blinked at the derelict street where he’d shown up. Other people bustled and shifted around, and the aura of his team’s reigning General-Sovereign attracted Ilmari to it like a pretty little moth that wanted to be a skinny legend when it grew up instead of only being one of those things. Wrinkling his nose at how filthy and broken everything here looked—at how thoroughly it all embodied the exact antithesis of demure—llmari swooped over to join his team. He tried to put on his best “serious and ready to work” face……but that got quite a bit derailed by the presence of the single most Not Demure person Ilmari thought he’d ever seen in his life. Tall. Mouthy. An Order Eternal with too much sleeve, too many skirts, and a truly indecent amount of confidence for somebody who clearly wasn’t wearing the right color for his skin-tone.
To say nothing of how few favors the cut on that fuku is doing for his waistline, Ilmari thought but kept to himself because he knew that it wasn’t relevant right now. Whatever he felt about the slut in the white fuku (or about how anybody would have the audacity to go around in a fuku that made them look bulkier in the midsection), it didn’t matter as much as the mission.
“Faustite, Fafnir,” Ilmari piped up, slipping into a spot among the group that gave him some good distance from Murikabushi. “I’ll go with whoever’s taking point on getting Heliodor back. My magic leaves people dazed and reluctant to attack. Should help minimize the chance of Heliodor getting hurt in the crossfire.”

Character name Page Santa Maria NovellaLocation: Heading downstairs. Action: Following Halle. "This is only the second time I've looked like this..." He wasn't sure how else to word things, what terms he should use, as he stared at the other whom he had been following. "The ones upstairs are too big of a target, grouped together. I also do not trust them, they had no plan for this." And he didn't like that, though he also could have left.

Super Sailor Solaris of CatalystsLocation: Stairs, possibly mid-way down Action: Following Halle and Santa Maria Novella
All of the Order signatures there was a problem, and to be fair, they all knew that, so Solaris didn't even groan or curse when the sudden surge of Chaos left her stomach churning and her senses prickling. Her only thoughts were of where to go, how to be of best use to get people out of there.
As she saw two of the younger participants head to the stairs, she followed, aware she could only do so much to actually help with barricading anything... but with her magic being in flux? Better to be where it was more open, less chance of hitting an ally with the blast--not that the delipidated building offered that even downstairs, but she could probably get outside all the easier when needed.
Her wings flexed slightly as she trotted down a few of the stairs, catching the Page's words (Santa Maria). Her smile was bright as she adjusted the metal, feather-like bracelet around her left wrist. "Smart. Never jump into action that can trigger a hell of a fallout without plotting out all options, if you can avoid it anyways. Sometimes life ain't that friendly," she added with a forlorn sigh, ghosting her partially gloved hand over the railing while she was still on the stairs. She had no interest in getting splinters.
"Name's Solaris. Magic does a big bang, so trying to get to where I'll be less likely to hit friendlies." Introduction and a heads up all in one, how efficient. She glanced to the brightly colored Knight (Halle). "So what's your plan here?"

Knight Halle of LysitheaLocation: stairs, just about to first floor Action: heading downstairs to blockade as needed "There's a phrase, a magic phrase and it'll be easier to remember than you expect, alright? I pledge my life and loyalty to Ganymeade, and to...whatever the name powering up has given you. And then you say, I humbly request your aid, so that in return I may give you mine." He turned to give the other boy a grimly serious look, "If you can't run away, try to say that phrase, outloud or in your heart, and focus. It'll take you somewhere safe." Seeing the winged super follow, Halle felt a brief moment of relief. "I can summon a shield, a big one, enough to block anything within the house but only in one direction. What kind of bang?" He sounded rushed as they reach the lower floor, ready to summon against hostile intruders.

Eternal Corrupt Miyamoto of tsuara onnaLocation: Outside Action: Arriving When the call for help had come in Miyamoto had been wandering the city, gathering energy here and there, with an orb of light floating along beside him. It didn't have a shape but it seemed to have some sort of personality, bouncing and rolling about around him as it kept him company tonight. It was cold tonight and his hands were tucked up into the sleeves of his uniform as he meandered his way down an alleyway towards an open backdoor to some sort of shop, he was planning on finding out what was inside that building, when the call for help came in. Pausing to listen, wondering what was going on, he turned his grey eyes onto the little orb,
"Looks like we have something to do tonight, our help is needed." Giving a fanged smile the eternal was more than ready for this, he wasn't one for turning down a fight or backing down from one. "Care to join me?" As the orb seemed to take a moment to think, it had stilled in it's movements, it seemed to decide as it bounced up and down several times. "You get out of it's dangerous, I want you to vanish." As he was certain it would get dangerous.
Pulling his cell phone from subspace, his personal phone, he tapped out a message to inform Lorcan that he'd be busy and unavalible. There was a fight and he was going. The message was simple and rather to the point, as were most things he said, and then his phone was gone and he was vanishing from where he'd been...and arriving not far from those gathering. All those signatures...it felt comforting and good - so good.
A shiver of pleasure ran up his spine, a smile crossed his face, and the little orb was back and bouncing about and rolling around with energy. "Remember, keep safe and flee if you need to." This would, without any doubt, get out of hand quickly. "Stay back in my office." As if he didn't know that's where it would go anyway, it seemed to like his little tucked away office, as he often found it shimming in an arm chair he'd brought into his office not that long ago.(Open for interactions.)

Captain CarnotiteLocation: Outside Action: Waiting to begin There wasn't much hiding for this particular Captain. Carnotite stretched upwards, her metallic hands glinting in the electric lights that swirled above her head like a crown and danced through her hair. Her third eye was closed, not wanting the double-vision of electrical signals laid over everything.
This was a surprise, though, and plenty of reason for her to leave her home in Negaspace. Order actually did something? Amazing. Stupid, but amazing.
That someone over there had the balls to actually kidnap someone wasn't overly new, though she couldn't recall hearing anything for a while on such endeavors, but for them to take one of Faustite's? Oh honey, didn't even begin to describe her level of disbelief at their... suicidal tendencies? Because this was beyond stupid. But, it was slightly intriguing.
...minus the fact someone was probably seriously hurt, of course. Such a tragedy, that. Lovely that the captive had been found, and how easy it was to bring a proper show of force to get him out. Or whatever comforting, ensuring thing that was suitable to say to someone in such circumstances.
A faint smile played across her lips, two open eyes glowing along with the rest of her as she rested her hands comfortably on her hips. She was very excited to go see which of the pests were part of this hairbrained idea. Though, as she glanced at some of the youma around with a slight pout, she hoped there were at least enough for her to have a little fun... before they all got chewed up. Or turned into charcoal.

Captain SeraphiniteLocation: Outside Action: Arriving The call out had been... more than a bit of a surprise. Not only the what, but the who, and Seraphinite's more casual patrol immediately shifted over to head to the noted location.
The amount of agents, senshi, and youma already on the scene wasn't as surprising. He crossed his arms loosely, waiting for the strike to start. Occupying Order's attention while Faustite and his team got their person. Simple enough. His brows furrowed somewhat, though. Of all the people to antagonize, why would they go for a General Sovereign? There was no logic there to him, unless they'd concocted a hell of a trap.
No Royal Senshi or Knight stood out to him, energy wise, but he knew enough that it hardly meant anything. Cockroaches liked to spring up out of any nook and cranny they could squeeze into until they decide the time was right to pop out en mass.

Aelius (Eternal Corrupt Senshi, Heliodor)Location: Upstairs (Back bedroom) Action: Being held hostage by Grieve Aeliuis was teetering on the edge of being awake and sleep. It was the fuzzy area where one wondering if what they were hearing or thinking was real or not. Sometimes dreams liked to play games, and that was exactly what Aelius thought was happening. Sure, he had heard some noise, but nothing had stood out as anything peculiar. It all melded into the sounds of the night of a run-down part of the city. After all, he couldn’t sense the growing army outside of the house like the rest of the occupants.
It wasn’t until he heard rushed steps coming down the hallway and moving down the stairs that he began to pull his consciousness away from sleep. That was when Grieve came barging into the room.
He rolled himself back to a sitting position a bit awakwardly. Brows furrowed as he stared at her advancing form. “What’s going on?”
Had they made their decision? Was this woman to be his executioner?

Grieve of GrieveLocation: upstairs / back bedroom Action: grabbing a boy " Venit, you've found a new use." She began taking out her senshi phone and paused. "I can ******** over all the people and let you ********' die on my world, alone, and they'll never know what ********> really happened to you." With a sigh she added, a bit of disgust in her tone, "Your people are here. So if you don't want to die right now: are you worth more as a hostage or a shield?" Before putting away her phone she sent two heartfelt messages. super sailor roka burning_eyes emotion_skull emotion_ghost eternal sailor murikabushi evil wahmbulance emotion_jawdrop emotion_bandaid

Super Corrupt PaxLocation: Outside Action: Resting b***h face has arrived Pax had the good fortune to not have been doing anything at this time of night, which meant that when they flickered into existence from Faustite's pull they looked pretty much exactly as they always did: resting b***h face, all abyss black and interspersed hot pink, arms crossed over their chest.
Heliodor was kidnapped, huh? Sucked for him. It'd really driven Fafnir insane, which did not help. In theory Pax was reasonably sure they would've been beside themself if it'd been one of their siblings gone missing, but it wasn't, so it didn't really evoke any strong emotion.
Which was fine. These fights were fun, when they weren't too loud, too bright, too much. Speaking of 'too much' -- they looked over at Murikabushi, didn't make eye contact, stared at a point somewhere between his ear and his neck. Oh. That guy. And then they glanced over to Ilmari, who was usually tolerable, at least.---------------------- Eternal Corrupt ChrysocollaLocation: Outside Action: Arriving When Chrysocolla got the all-call, her stomach dropped, very briefly. And then she was furious: at Faustite, at the incompetence of that Earth Knight, at everything, at -- what did she do now? What did she do here. If Hy-Brasil wanted to sell Chrys out to save her own skin (which wouldn't work anyway, Chrys was pretty sure) --
She had to participate in this. She had to pretend she didn't know anything about it at all. She didn't need to give a single inch of implication that maybe she'd been involved.
When she blinked into existence a few rooftops away from the assembling Negaversers, she looked even more irritated than her usual neutral when out on patrol, but nothing more. When the General-King said <******** get over here, you got over there, no matter if it was Faustite or someone else.
Usually. Not that Chrysocolla usually actually did that. She was discerning, about which calls she responded to.---------------------- Half-Youma General LarimarLocation: Outside Action: Guess what? Also arriving Larimar was around. Larimar wasn't around much, these days, because increasingly ze took twelve-hour depression naps and ******** around in the Rift, because being around people -- normal people, who could power down, who could get out of uniform without making any real deal about it -- hurt.
But ze was in the area, for whatever good it did zem. Not a lot of good, given that Faustite was around, but... ze didn't need to give him any reasons to finish the job. So if it was a crowd already showing up, because General-King's orders, it was a crowd plus one.
Larimar stood at a distance to everyone else, wings folded tightly against zyr back, hands in zyr nearly-invisible pockets, and shoulders drawn so tight ze was liable to pop something out of socket. One feathered ear twitched.---------------------- Grieve got a text back, almost exactly 47 seconds after her own text had sent.
There was a twenty-second pause before the followup.

Super Sailor Mizuki, Corrupt Senshi of Lilacs
Location: Outside
Action: With Faustite, Hestia, Fafnir, and Muri
She popped into existence, a grin edged with a little too much murderous intent on her face. Heliodor and her may have had their differences at one point or another, but he was family at this point. He was part of their team. Mizuki was not about to let the enemy have him, or any of them. Her eyes were hard as she surveyed the group. They found Muri as he spoke and she gave him a little nod. He wore white, he'd left but he also was helping. He was the one who'd gotten Faustite the location. For that, he could live another day. Keep his soul just a little longer.
To be honest, Muri was not on Mizuki's murder list. He and her dad had a 'thing' which kept him safe from her. Safe enough, anyway.
Mizuki settled next to Faustite and Headache. "Just point me where you need to me, General King," she said to the pair, all formal like. She only generally did this when around others outside of the team - especially other Generals. She could be... contained, when necessary.
---
Captain Litharge
Location: Outside
Action: With Faustite, Hestia, Fafnir, and Muri; he can help assist blocking the exits as necessary
Litharge answered the summons and popped into existence with a rush. The pull was weirdly familiar. Not in the way that Faustite just summoned him all the time, but in something... else. He couldn't place it though maybe there had been sand involved? Whatever it had been, it wasn't relevant anymore. The giant of a man in dark red and black made his way through the crowd to his General King and saluted in greeting.
"I'll run the back line and help cut off their escape. They can't teleport, right?" he asked, just to make sure he wasn't going to have to try to catch them mid yeet where ever they went. Litharge was good for many things, but catching vanishing senshi was not one of them sadly.

Aelius (Corrupt Eternal Heliodor)Location: Upstairs (Back Bedroom) Action: Taken hostage by Grieve Yup. ********. This was it. Grieve grew tire of all of the people chatting and was going to off him herself and…
The team was there?! The remaining sleepiness that clung to his brain was wiped away in a flurry.
Grieve’s question though threw him for a loop as exhaustion still clawed at him like an unrelenting mistress. What kind of question was that? He struggled to decipher the difference of the two. “Hostage...” Why did it feel like a literal crap shoot? Hostage an shield could go one in one. Or perhaps he just wasn’t able to think on the matter deep enough.
It didn’t matter. Not as long as he could remain of the living and not on Grieves planet.
"The team is loyal to each other." He doubled down.
But, knowing the magic and capabilities of the team, a hostage situation would be easier for them to circumnavigate.
