Copy magic. And a way to copy items. Corrupt or not, whatever or whoever the ******** this guy was, he was apologizing, and Eurydike was already desperately trying to think if there was a way to fit the pieces together, clutching the lighter tight in his hand. He was about to interject again, say maybe there was a way they could use it, multiple it, multiple some more, burn this ******** train to bits -
- and that was, ironically, about when the projectile flew in through the hole in the window, and then, fire everywhere. The senshi recoiled violently, the flames curling too damned easily around his sandals, up his legs, everywhere, and he gave a howl of startled pain - then half-tumbled as the train jerked to a stop, and if he hadn't been soaked before, his fuku probably would've been aflame entirely. Not like it did much to protect him, and his cast, damp though the outside was, was still catching and burning, much to his horror.
He didn't even think. Who the ******** had time to think?! He just moved, pulling himself back to his feet and making a grab for the kid closest to him (Perdita), making an attempt to scoop her up into his arms and bolt for what should've been the ******** door. "GRAB THE ********' KIDS!" he bellowed to anyone that would listen, ignoring the sting in his back as the strain and the heat of the flames snapped and ripped at his stitches - they should've been out now, they wanted to take them out today - and flung a desperate kick at the door for all the ******** good it did. Once, twice, a third time, increasingly frantic, then he started shouldering it, desperate to gain some kind of ******** purchase and get the ******** out of there.
Any pain, any burns, anything, he could ******** deal with them later - he just had to ******** get out. Tolliver, he'd --

Amphitrite - 120HP - Car 1
This whole thing was really turning into something of a disappointment. The only reason she hadn't made more of an attempt to teleport out was because she knew she couldn't do it on her own, and there had been two perfectly good corrupts with her.
Who, by the way, were doing a glorious job of doing their own thing without lending her a hand. Her attempts to rouse them weren't doing anyone much good, and Ochre, the son of a b***h, had just gone ahead into the other car to try and placate someone else who wanted to hear his load of s**t.
When the explosion of the molotov cocktail resonated from the other car, she sincerely hoped and pleaded that he'd been killed by the fire. She probably wasn't so lucky. - and in the end, whether he was dead or not, the car broke away. Leaving just her, two unresponsive corrupts, and a lot of various senshi and knights, all order and all sickening to be standing beside.
She raised her communicator again. "This is Amphitrite. Umber. Ochre was in the second car." For his information. "I have not yet teleported - there are two other senshi here that can't, and I can't in good conscience leave them." She wondered, not for the first time, if ingesting a starseed might be what she needed to get them all off this train. "If you have any ideas, please let me know. I'll keep doing what I can here."
Either way. She willed her proper uniform back to her at least, the shirt and skirt giving way to her proper black fuku, and turned her gaze to the cat-turned-human, reminded of Ash, and felt her stomach churn with bitter nausea. "My magic is defensive, " she finally offered curtly, coldly. "It does you no good Mauvian." The proper title, meant to maintain the distance between herself and the cat. "So what do you propose we do then?"
Well, at least they weren't dying - yet. There was an awful, shrieking sound, the train shuddering, and Celsus staggered a little as he tried to stay upright, his ring still held up so that he could speak into it. Mistral's voice ebbed into his ears, and he gave a small laugh.
"I think you might have hit the brake, yes," said Celsus, glancing around as he tried to wade his way through everything to the nearest door, a hand against the wall to brace himself. "A good thing, mayhaps, depending on if we're able to get out."
He clicked off, then clicked right back on to reply to Valhalla's message.
"You can't say not to worry, mate, I always worry," Celsus said cheerfully. " I - "
But the rest of his sentence was cut off abruptly. The train had given a rumble, a dim crash in his ears, and then a screech and a stutter as it finally came to a halt, Celsus staggering unsteadily on his feet. The whole thing gave a violent shiver, but they were stopped, which meant the potential for escape.
"Oh, bloody hell - "
He still had his ring raised, the message probably ebbing through to Valhalla. Celsus hastily lowered his arm before he said anything else. He'd reached the inner doors that led to the next train car, Celsus digging his fingers into them to wedge them open, pressing his shoulder against the side as he forced them open.
"Time to deboard," he said cheerfully to everyone. "Let's get off this train, shall we?"
A blaze of heat and flames met him - the train was a little more on fire than he'd expected, but Celsus was still attempting to see if there was anyone who needed help on the next train, eyes scanning the compartment, and his eyes fell on one certain senshi -
"What the bloody hell are you doing here?"

Palatine / HP: 130 -10 = 120 / Car 3
If there was ever a reason for Palatine to give up on public transportation and finally invest in a vehicle of her own, it would be this.
The train was half alive, and it was disgusting, and there was no immediate way out. They were stuck there with agents of the Negaverse, who'd probably been up to something nefarious before all this even started. If she could, she'd leave them all on the train to suffer and save everyone else the trouble.
She shook her head at the Squire who foolishly jumped in front of the Captain. Palatine didn't know what their relationship was, or why the Squire thought that was a good idea when the Negaverse was most certainly their enemy, but she wasn't there to judge. At least not yet. She'd saved that for later, once they managed to get out of here somehow.
She didn't need prompting from the Negaverse Captain. Indeed, she shot him a look to show how unimpressed by him she was. Palatine summoned her teapot from subspace, walking over to crouch by Varuna as she rubbed snow onto the poor Squire's face.
“This might sting a little,” Palatine warned him, before tipping warm tea onto his wounds. The effect should be immediate.
In any case, the train soon jerked to a stop. Palatine glanced around and caught the scent of something burning, not in their car but... close.
“I think it's time for you officers with the deadly weapons to cut us out of here,” she said.
Quote:
Palatine’s teapot fills with warm tea. The tea can be poured onto mild injuries in order to heal them—swelling and bruises diminish, scrapes and minor cuts heal, etc. The injured areas might still be a bit tender to touch, but the rate of healing is accelerated significantly. Palatine’s magic can last for a total of 30 seconds of continuous pouring, but would more likely be broken up into shorter durations depending on the amount of injuries.

Perdita / HP: 110 – 10 = 100 / Car 2
Perdita was too intrigued by their surroundings to pay attention to the conversation. She assumed they were attempting to concoct some sort of plan to get them all out of there. If that was the case, she'd join in once the plan was made, but for the time begin she wanted to examine their surroundings more.
She was aware enough, however, to notice that another Senshi was asking her to multiply a lighter.
“I don't think that's a good idea,” she said.
No sooner had she done so than the train was on fire.
Only then was Perdita concerned for their safety and wellbeing. They were trapped in a train car that was on fire. If the youma didn't kill them, the smoke and the fire surely would. Perdita brought a part of her capelet up to cover her face, attempting to block out as much as the smoke as possible.
Then the Senshi who'd asked her for a lighter was grabbing her. It took everything Perdita had not to struggle away from him, wary that she might inadvertently be dropped into the flames.
“Hey, watch it!” she said. “I can take care of myself!”
She glanced over the Senshi's shoulder toward Oberon, looking for help.

Snowball | HP: 110(?) (I forgot how to math) | Car 1
Snowball's ears flicked and suddenly flattened in both worry and slight fear when the other train cars detached, "******** Hellhole." He said as he looked around, okay this was not good but it wasn't time to panic right? His tail twitched he knew he was still on the line with Polaris, "The other cars have detached we're still going."
He then finally heard Ampheitrite, "We may actually need that, since this car is still going and the others aren't with it." He shifted and looked around he wasn't sure what to do at this point.
"I can use my forehead Lazer but we may have to attack all at once. But where would be best, at the front or at the back? The front is usually the head of the beast right and maybe controls for this contraption? However if we're going to impact those other cars . . . we're not going to have fun with this. We need a way to stop it." He said working his way that way tugging Eros along with him. "Everyone else needs to get to the back of the train. If we're still going at full speed and impact with those other cars we need everyone to be at the back. . . if there's anyone that has some sort of shield magic, it maybe best to protect the civilians as we brace for impact if we can't make this train stop.
He looked around, "Polaris . . . if those other cars are back to normal is there a way to get them going away and use them to slow this part of the train down? Like get them going again and then slow down that part of the train slowly and see if we can't use force?"
He was grasping at straws. . . "The only other thing I we might be able to do is everyone start punching the youma as hard as we can and hope it blows up."
Oberon stared in disbelief at the apologizing corrupted senshi before shaking his head at him. "Let's worry about apologies and discussing our positions in this war once we're all out of here," he suggested, just as the train was suddenly lit on fire. Somehow he didn't think a lighter would be a good thing to duplicate at this time.
"Hey! Put her down!" he shouted as he heard Perdita's distress. "We've been doing this longer than you, probably! We've got it covered!" But before he went to try and pull his friend from the crazy guy's arms, he pushed his hand against the corrupted senshi. "Adventure beckons! If you are sorry, help get some of these civilians out!" he suggested after using his attack to hopefully boost the corrupted senshi's morale.
"Put her down and grab a civilian!" he yelled at the crazy guy once more. "Hurry before we all die from smoke inhalation or burn to death!"

morale boost! Or just more adventurous/reckless with confidence. Sorry I'm posting from my phone so I don't have the attack description. sad

Varuna continued to glare at the Captain, almost attempted to used her magic on him once more, but her aunt then came over to use her magic on the squire.
Suddenly they came to a stop and Varuna looked up in concern when the knight in their car pulled open the interior door, only to reveal smoke and flames. Standing, she moved over to the opening where the knight was and held up her hands. It wouldn't be too pleasant but at least the snow will help put out some of the fire.
"Snow slip!" she called her attack pushing it as far as she could inside the blazing train car, and the pulling the snow towards herself to hopefully draw them all closer to safety.
Eurydike - 100hp - Car 2 -> Car 3 (and maybe back again?)
What Eurydike was very, very quickly deducing was that these children were literally ******** insane. "I'm sure you can handle yourself just fine girlie, " the salt senshi hissed between gritted teeth, the flames continuing to lick his legs like an overly friendly mutt. His back was trickling red, which was very, very visible through his white and pink fuku - but obscured somewhat beneath his crimson cape as it flapped in the thermals of heat. "But right now, we just - do you not realize, " he snapped back at Oberon, dumbfounded by how calm the kid was in a train car with flames everywhere, "that down is fire?! I'm trying to ********' get you out of here!"
Thankfully, the door - which he realized now still connected the two cars - opened. Less thankfully, of all ******** people in the goddamn world, it was Celsus standing there. Because of course. Of ******** course it was him. "W-what am I doin' here?!" he sputtered, trying not to wince as the flames kept on burning away, resisting the urge just to shove past him and stumble into the other car. Even then, the whole goddamn thing was creaking, dangerously, ominiously - "WHAT THE ******** DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M DOIN'?"
Then, snow began to seep into the car, and even just a little, even if it sizzled and melted in the flames, he was grateful and too happy to push past Celsus and set the girl down, spitting a short, "You're welcome, " before turning back as if to go back into the burning car and maybe save someone that actually wanted to be saved.
"Someone get that ********' door open an' get us the ******** outta here, please."
Not for the first time, he wondered why he even bothered.

Car 1 // Valeria's HP: 120 -10 = 110
Shock and fright hit her at nearly the same time as she noted the changes in the train as it...changed. What was going on, or rather how, she didn't know. This wasn't part of the plans, unless there had been something she hadn't been told. She really hoped this was planned, as much as she'd dislike having not been told, because if this was unplanned...they were all in trouble. Hearing her name being called by Amphitrite the pink haired corrupted headed toward the voice, hoping the sea foam haired girl had a clue because she certainly didn't.
"Amphitrite?" She questioned as she reached the other. "Do you know what's going on?" She questioned as she stood close to her fellow corrupted senshi. Listening to the sounds as the train continued to change. "This wasn't anything I was told about." Listening to the other call out for help, to those outside of the train, she hoped they could help because it seemed their part of this was going bad and in a big way. They might just have to work with the other side in order to get out of this...
Watching as Ocher joined them, rather quickly, Valeria found her heels sinking into the...meaty floor. Oh god how gross. "I think I'll be watching what I eat for a while after this." She spoke while pulling a face to show just how disgusted she was, and to cover up just how nervous she was about this situation.
The train really said something about enjoying their ride...she had wanted to laugh at that but seriously she was just in shock over this. This was not supposed to happen as far as she'd been told. Collect starseeds - that was it! Nothing she'd been told or heard involved the train becoming a youma that was going to try and eat them! She needed to make it out of this...somehow. She couldn't leave her family without them even knowing how or anything else, as she was sure they wouldn't even get a body back and would never know she'd died. She couldn't allow this to happen to herself or anyone else.
A voice filtered into her mind, a voice, calling for them to all attack it if they could. But she couldn't...could she? If she tried to confuse the train what could happen? What would it do in it's confused state? Would her magic even work...did it have enough of a mind to confuse? She didn't try it, she remained where she was - next to Amphitrite. She didn't even notice when Ocher vanished into another train car.
Finally though Valeria seemed to come back to herself and blinking she stepped away from her fellow corrupted senshi and decided to try it - she had to. her middle finger and index finger came up to her forehead and as she called her attack "Mind pause." She flung a small orb of dark purple energy at a wall of train car 1. But it was right after that where she turned to Amphitrite. "I don't know what that'll do...." But she had to try something, right? ]
((Sorry for being so horrid and slow/not really around, I've been brain dead the last...day or so.))
Quote:
Sailor Scout Attack: Mind pause. Here Valeria places her index and middle finger to her right temple and calls her attack. Flicking her fingers toward her enemy a dark pink ball of light is tossed/flicked at the enemy, the person must be within ten feet of her, and upon hitting them inflicts upon them a sort of absent mindedness. They suddenly can't think or form a thought and are left standing, sitting, or laying right where they are until the magic passes. It can, of course, be dodged and a good shake, hit, or anything else inflicted upon the victim of Valeria's attack will shake them from this stupor. The attack, if not broken, will last twenty seconds and can be used three times in battle. She is able to strike someone up to a 10ft range in front of her.

Car 3 Super Chaldene HP: 140 - 10 = 130
He might have been powered up but he hadn't done anything beyond that. He had been too grossed out and too just...worried about what was going on and potentially messing something up. He knew he must seem useless, standing there on this humanish/youmaish train and doing nothing but what could he do? His magic made little wisps and did he really want this youma train seeing those and taking off after them? Nope, it sounded like a very bad idea to the blue and white clad senshi. So he had remained standing around and looking at everything, taking it all in, and really wishing he could do more with his magic.
He knew others were using there magic but he refrained from doing so, even if he did want to use his magic, he was sure it wouldn't help in the way others were. So he had refrained from such and watched what happened as he tried to keep from moving around or doing much of anything. He did every so often lift his feet up out of the meaty, fleshy, floor before setting his foot back down and lifting the other and repeating the process.
What he wasn't expecting was a fire to break out on one of the cars or the smoke and everything which came with it, what had caused it he didn't know; hadn't noticed. But he did notice his car and another one stopping and that was good!
Hearing the shouting for someone to open the door the dark haired senshi finally went over to the door, pulling a face at the thing, but he looked to Eurydike. "I'll try but help." He couldn't do it on his own, he was sure of that.
((God, I feel so useless after ignoring all this for days. ::sobs in a corner:: ))

Ashanite // Car 3 // HP: 110
For a brief moment, Ashanite very seriously considered planting a kiss on Mont Blonc. But no, no that would just make things even more complicated, and so instead when the train cars jerked to a very unexpected halt, the Captain stood up, but pressed the wet piece of his uniform into Monty's hand so he could hopefully get more of that disgusting goop off him.
"Thank you," he told the Venus Squire, but there wasn't too much time to blather - he could smell smoke from the other car, and that meant that there was a good chance it would pass to theirs before too long.
"Miasmite, be useful for once in your pathetic existence and go help the other car get their doors open, preferably before we all choke to death on smoke." He said. The Senshi's snow magic would hopefully help put out some of the flames - good. He drove his blade where he expected the gap between the doors to be, and started dragging it down slowly, gritting his teeth. "Devilline, help me with the doors!"
Harmonia // HP: 130-10(daily)=120 // Train Car 2 > Platform
Harmonia barely registered the flying, burning object before the care erupted in fire and smoke as the small bomb exploded on impact. Without thinking she partially blocked Ochre from the initial explosion as she turned her body away from it and into him. She hissed a bit as heat form the explosion licked at her exposed skin but it was, thankfully short lived. Now they had to contend with rapidly moving fire and lots of smoke.
It seemed though that something had come out of this whole fiasco. The cars jerked and shuddered, causing Harmonia to practically fall into the corrupted senshi. She quickly righted herself and looked around as the youma began fleeing from the car. The bomb had worked! They were stopping! "Sorry about that." She held a hand out to the corrupted to help him up before looking around at the mess surrounding them.
People were already moving to get off. With the fire spreading and people freaking out it was no surprise that there was a mad dash to the exit.
Thankfully it didn't take long to get the door open and Harmonia joined in the effort to get Civilians off of the train. She half pushed adults and even carried a small kid here and there out the doors. It was actually during one of her carrying sessions that she felt the large influx of an already powerful aura and looked up to see a princess using her magic for something. Whatever it was though, she was straining terribly.
Harmonia paused for a moment and looked back at the car. There were still people inside working on getting out; senshi, knights, nega and civilians a like. She bit her lip as she hesitated. I want to help get everyone out but...
Carrying the child with her, Harmonia deposited the kid just far enough away to be safe form the train before rushing towards the princess.

"Phact. Sailor Phact." She responded to the Mau Human who once again turned their attention back to talking to whoever he was. By the sound of it, someone on the outside.
"Sabine." She turned her attention back to the young woman for a moment making sure she was standing. "I think he's talking to someone on the..." Phact winced when the fluffy male screamed out. Looking back at him, she blinked several times trying to stop the ringing in her hears. "I'm sure someone heard you as long as that lining is not as thick as the metal."
Looking back at the new senshi. "That's one way to put it. Welcome to the war. Though this isn't the best time to explain everything. Sadly, you will find many of us aren't 100% surprised though we are disgusted. "
And then came the chaos.
Something around them started to shake and Phact felt herself stumble to keep a balance. No way she was going head first into that slime. Looking back and listening, she reached out for Sabine. Mouthing "Stay close."
"Hey Cat! What about the back doors? If it's been pulled away from the others, is it thinner? Something maybe we can break through? Because if those cars aren't empty, ramming them into us is going to shake more than just us up."

HP: 100// Car 2 -> Platform
Well one thing was for sure. Everyone of them was up in a panic and Stibnite was more trying to fight the upcoming headache that she was getting from all the confusion going on around her than keeping track of who was grabbing who or where they were going.
The fear was in her blood but it drove up a great fight than flight reaction. Holding her hand out, she summoned that sorry excuse for a weapon. A silver cross came to her hand. Horrible in battle but the ends were sharp. Great for slicing through membrane.
Just as she moved towards what had been a door, Stibnite was forced to duck. Fire. Fire flew through and ignited nearly everything around them. She could feel the heat catch the back of her uniform and quickly rolled through the slime to try and put it out. It stopped but now she was covered....
Coming back to her feet, Stibnite covered her nose and mouth with her hand, ignoring the slime over them, and realized she was seeing the tail end of a senshi going through the opening. Moving with the few that could still do so, Stibnite found herself more pushed onto the platform than walking.
Stumbling out of the mad rush, Stibnite tried to breath. "What the heck is going on..." She quickly began scanning.
