Welcome to Gaia! ::

Witherite - Outside a bit away from the tower

It was hard not to notice when other's popped up around him. Some closer some further away. Most of them were magic slingers and so he was very confused as to why he was currently here. Obviously he could feel the creepy wrongness of the place, but this wasn't earth so what did he care. He hadnt signed up for explorations of foreign land and he had work in the morning got dammit. He summoned his weapon and headed for the person closest to him, who honestly looked like she may have been pulled straight from a rodeo or maybe a saloon.

"You," he called out to her, before she seemed to disappear into the grasses and he stepped in a puddle of black goo. He reeled back slightly looking down at it. The hell was that, slime? It reminded him of the goop jars one would often see for sale in the dollar toy section of a convenience store, though it didn't exactly insight a desire to play with it or even really to touch it. He wiped it off his shoe as best he could and continued towards the girl.

He walked right up on her, to see her talking to a cat. He cleared his voice, weapon in hand looking at her with a raised eyebrow. "Care to explain what the whole ******** is going on here?"

Eternal Chaldene, with Oort and Tomlin outside.

"I'm aware of what you are. I also know that it would be best if you can see also. You can advice best if you can see what we can." He stated calmly. He also didn't need the cat somehow getting lost from them, and not being able to find them again, due to the high grasses. "We need to figure out where we are. We have a good idea of the why." Something on the planet had happened and it's senshi wasn't enough to help it. It had reached out and called for them - for help. The senshi of this planet needed help...they weren't enough...but he didn't sense something that big...that chaotic.

But to have puddles like this forming on the ground...that wasn't good either. There was some power here and it wasn't good. Under the surface? He didn't know but he knew they'd have to help, it was needed.

When the cat climbed up hi arm and settled on his shoulder he nodded. Turning his face, just enough, to nuzzle the cat. "That's fine. So long as we can all see. I don't want to be taken by surprise and I'd like all of us able to see so we can decide the best course of action." He was used to playing mmo's online and working in groups...he knew how to plan things in that way. Right now he knew they needed to think and see...to work together.

"That's good...a door is good...I think." It might not be..this was an alien planet and something was wrong. So maybe it wasn't good, not now anyway.

Looking up, and over, when she heard someone call out she was surprised by the figure approaching. What a bright outfit they had...very bright and not at all like her blue and silver, metal and cloth, outfit. Watching as he avoided one of the puddles, what they were she sort of really wanted to know, Gorner was happy to have some company. Any hope of him having a clue though was smashed by his own words.

"I know knights can be summoned to Mars...but this isn't Mars.This is somewhere else and it's to help...but I don't know with what." And she sort of really wanted to find out so she could get to the saving part, and maybe a fight or two?

Like a hunted house? Maybe a haunted forest...or both really. But she liked that and the feel and the thrill at the idea of such! It was the adrenaline rush that she loved and even craved and sought out at times.

"Gorner." She replied when he gave his name. "Page of Castor....and I'm a bit new to this all also."

Sailor Asteria -- Outside

Asteria nibbled on the bottom of her lip, she was worried her fellow court members would be mad at her for being late to the party, she was just so busy with other things going on with her life that made her late to party. She stood outside looking around, this was the first time she had been magically teleported somewhere, she was just going on about her regular day and suddenly she was in a place that was new to her.

She continued to look around still worried that she would get on the bad side of her fellow court members, frankly she had yet to meet her fellow court members, I guess this was one way to get that process going. She looked around for any familiar faces, but to no aval. She walked towards the entrance of the tower.

Falias, Knight of Earth
Location: Outside with Venice & Scholomance

"Sounds good to me" Falias said, because Scholomance's suggestion that they try to find this Ida seemed to be a pretty sound one to him.

He carefully skirted the 'puddle', nodding at Venice's comment that black sticky puddle of ooze seemed out of place amongst the grass and flowers that he was currently making his way through.

"We were heading towards that big tree" Falias continued as he pointed briefly towards the large tree. "But if you have an idea of a more likely place to try looking then I'm up for trying there instead?"

He used 'I' instead of 'we' deliberately not wanting to speak for Venice's attention, his green eyes thoughtful as he looked across momentarily at Scholomance before turning his attention back to the landscape as he really wanted to make sure that his feet avoided making contact with any of the puddles.

Tomlin, Guardian Cat – Outside

The slight nuzzle Tomlin receive from the Eternal Senshi went a long way to ease the distress the cat always felt at being grabbed unexpectedly.

“I have other senses than sight. Next time, ask first,” he said, gruff but without acrimony.

Though if he’d asked, Tomlin would have said no, and then he’d have been neck-deep in the second blackened puddle that had started seeping up just where he’d been standing before he’d been picked up. Had it been there the whole time, just under the grassy surface, he wondered, or had it oozed from somewhere else?

He dug his claws into Chaldene’s wide collar – to secure his position, not because the haunted tone of Chibi Oort’s words brought back to mind the last battle they’d fought together. His young friend had seemed happy a moment ago, but the shadow of the dark crystal caverns they’d been in was not so easily shaken off. The walls of youma, the press of chaotic energy swallowing up their lights. He was on the wrong shoulder. But Oort was here, powered up and ready. He’d answered the call. He had an awful lot of strength.

“Yeah, we’ve been in fights. But something called for help, so here we are,” Tomlin said, hoping Oort understood how brave that made him. To Chaldene, he added, “Don’t count us out ‘cause we’re small.”

It looked like they had a consensus for the tree with doors. It was frustrating that he couldn’t pinpoint the chaotic wrongness that he was sensing. He couldn’t advise them of a bearing.

“We don’t know yet if we’re here to fight. There is something here, but it doesn’t feel like youma. What happened on Maia?”

It sounded like the Eternal had some intel he was missing. Cats were supposed to be all-knowing, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t push for more information.

Eternal Chaldene, outside with Tomlin and Oort.

"Yes, but against an enemy we know and understand. We don't know what this enemy will be...or what it will be capable of." The same rules did not apply here, at least he didn't think they would. He could feel chaos, like Negaverse chaos, but he doubted they were the cause of this problem. The problem felt like chaos also but not the same. "We've all been in battles." And no child should be...but to hear those words were no surprise to the eternal.

"This is going to be different I think...and I can feel the Negaverse here...but I for some reason...I uuhhh...don't think they are involved in the problem..." Hesitating, trailing off. His voice wavered and showed that he really wasn't the best with giving orders but was trying, was trying to lead even if only in this small capacity.

"I won't Tomlin." He assured the cat, he wouldn't count them out. "I just want to minimize damages to us if I can." So he wanted Tomlin to have a better vantage point. He wanted to keep the chibi senshi safe, or as safe as he could. He couldn't keep him from seeing whatever would happen here, he was brave coming here. They all were but the children even more so, they were children after all and that came with certain other things.

"Maia...there was some chaos infection...I guess infection would fit...and it started to affect Maia herself - the senshi not the planet...but the planet was suffering also. We had to bring her to her planet and fight...a tree....a very big tree. Several of us were there and Maia transcended in the end. I remember blacking out at some point." He hadn't been the only one to black out and lose consciousness though, something he could be glad for.

He didn't mention that he'd hacked into the hospitals mainframe, and taken over their cameras so he could assure the kidnapping of the sick senshi from her hospital bed. "The senshi was dying...from what was going on with her planet...This could be similar in which case the enemy...we don't know what it is, yet, or what it can do..." The tree had been unexpected as had it's attacks. They had no way of knowing here, it was why he was being cautious and was trying to keep a bit of a leash on the other two...he didn't like jumping into the unknown.
