Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sailor Hydor

Oh who the ******** gave up on the mask, letting it sit on the top of his head for now. Close the ******** enough. He needed to see. If he was going to be training, he needed to, at the very least, have his damned eyes. Without them, he might-as-well have just laid down and let them draw his starseed right then and there.

Well. This was a training session, supposedly, so perhaps not quite that level of severity. Perhaps just laying down and dying was close enough.

"No," replied Hydor, flatly, glancing over to the senshi that was wearing... a furry bra piece? He did not understand half of these senshi uniforms. He supposed it made more sense than literally fighting in a suit, as much as he preferred his get up to the get up of anyone else's. "For one, these ******** masks are awful. I am uncertain as to why I am here, honestly." That was at least, in part, the truth. He had no interest in divulging the full truth, his complicated relationships with certain guardian cats and possible potential allies. "Fighting is not my forte."

Nor was it his interest. Did the senshi have any sort of central information hub he could work on bettering?

The shout of his name caught his attention, and his eyes wandered off from furbra to ... a man who seemed rather enthusiastic about seeing him, despite the fact that he could not recognize him in turn. Interesting. Hydor squinted and raised a hand to be polite, but then noticed a certain Neptune squire next to him, a certain Neptune squire that opted to slip his hand into the senshi's and squeeze.

Aha.

That was Hitch.

Of course he was also a goddamn senshi. Why the ******** wouldn't he be?

"I have been spotted," drawled Hydor, letting his eyes roll over to the woman next to him. "You are free to follow if you would like."

He honestly did not care if she did or did not, venturing to get at least closer to senshi-Hitch and Emrys.

Cybele gave Anser a proper smirk as she picked a white mask out of the pile and pulled it onto her forehead. "I'd like to see you try," she said, her tone much more playful than threatening as she looked over to Larissa. She had a black mask, as well. It looked like Cybele was going to be up against all of her senshi friends.

She glanced at her phone again. "Speaking of which, it's about time to get started." With a nod, she walked from the her table setup towards center field and turned to address the growing crowd.

"Hello, everyone, and welcome again to my little masquerade brawl. It's lovely to see all of you. Thanks for coming out. I'm Sailor Cybele and I'm the one running this thing." She gave everyone a few moments to settle down and listen.

She scanned the crowd while she did, and couldn't help but notice a surprisingly large number of one-eyed individuals cursing at the masks, and one with glasses, too. They were strangers, mostly. She hadn't known that they were coming, but it still sent a flush across her cheeks. She should have thought of something, anyway. She didn't want to discriminate against the visually impaired among their ranks.

"If you haven't gotten a mask yet, go ahead and pick one up. Um. They don't have to be on your eyes, just make sure they're somewhere visible and secure." The cats seemed to want in as well, so hopefully that was a solution that would work for them as well. "One of the issues I've noticed is that large battles in public spaces can have us shocked and unprepared, so I've split us into teams so that we can simulate that experience." She pointed at her own mask. "Team Black and Team White."

"So, here's the story. You're at a lovely little masquerade, a holiday charity event, say, when suddenly the Negaverse shows up, uninvited, out of nowhere. They're ruining everything, they're draining people, it's a mess, you need to stop them."

"These masks also represent your vitality, your energy to fight, perhaps a bit more literally, your starseed." Just one snatch and it could all be over. "Try to get the masks however you can. Defend yourself however you can.. Please don't kill anyone. That's all I ask. Other than that, I'd like to see what you all have up your sleeves. If your mask is taken, you're out. Please get off the field. Feel free to stay for some snacks. The team with the most standing at the end wins."

She smiled. "Oh, and one more thing." She fished around in her ribbons for a few seconds before producing a old fashioned egg timer. "You've got twenty minutes before someone inevitably sets the place on fire."

She walked back over to set the egg timer on the table. "Ready. Set."

She twisted the dial back on the timer and slipped her mask down over her nose.

"Go!"

Chibi Super Sailor Ara
Team White - HP: 40

"Hi I'm Ara" she said to the mint haired senshi as she happily took a mask, it was like a super hero mask so she proudly put it on. She didn't get long to chat before another senshi a few years older than her cut in front of her.

She puffed out her cheeks in a bit an annoyed pout. She wandered away to let the older senshi talk. She watched as a whole bunch of other senshi, knights, and cats showed up. There wasn't anyone that Ara knew which was a bit of a disappointment but she supposed this was a chance to get know other fighters.

She listened intently as Cybele explained the rules, so she just had to grab other people's mask and keep from losing her own, that sounded like fun.

She locked eyes with a red haired and red clothed super senshi with a cute guardian kitty wearing a black mask, she figured a super would be a good opponent since they were on the same level. "Hi I'm Ara! Let's fight!" She said in a chipper bright voice. At the call of go Ara wasted no time.

"Infinite Light Parade!" She called out as six motes of shinning light appeared behind her. they shot beams of lights that covered as one on the red super. Ara ran for the older's mask.

Super Sailor Denebola - Team White - HP: 40

Denebola had turned at the sound of her neame, blue and green eyes blinking when she half turned. The source of the call received a warm smile, the woman slowing in her trek through the crowd until the younger woman could catch up. "Hey," she greeted warmly, releasing her grip on Tortuga's hand to welcome Phoebe with a hug.

"You're just in time," she assured her, gently rubbing gloved hands over dark arms before her attention was stolen by the woman who had called them all there.

The masks were interesting and she retrieved enough for her group, since they were all on the same team, thankfully.

She didn't like that they were told they were to be treated like starseeds and that the goal was to...snatch as many as they could, but she couldn't deny that a large group practice could be helpful.

Still...

"We stick together, okay?" Denebola told her companions. "We're stronger together and we protect each other."

Team Black - Super Sailor Sabine - HP: 30

Sabine realized too late that she had let her guard down while dealing with Wendell, the chibi super came up to her, and she'd not thought anything of it until her eyes had caught the color of the girl's mask. The words had barely processed in her mind when the magical attack was already coming her way.

So she did the only logical thing, scooping Wendell into her arms protectively and turning hard to take the brunt of the lights to her back, wincing from the pain and the bright lights. She hadn't brought any of her extra equipment - so it wasn't like she could attack in kind.

She hissed under her breath and looked down at Wendell, still not quite able to see as she could hear the girl running toward them.

"Wendell, after I call my attack you need to do exactly what I tell you to do next okay?!"

"Tactical Shift!" She called her attack, touching Wendell and empowering him. "Run to the fence!" She hissed to him in a low voice, before putting him down and hoping he'd listen - she didn't have time to explain her magic. She rolled then, listening for the sound of the younger girl's footsteps to either slow or stop, lashing out with an arm to keep her at bay once she was sure she was close enough. She wasn't aiming to hurt the chibi - she'd of felt bad if she did. Even if she was sure there were some on the other side that wouldn't have thoguht twice about it.

Team Black - Super Sailor Kastra - HP: 40

At first Kastra only heard the ramblings of the savannah cat in her ear. He had the wonderfully charming habit of talking for the sake of talking and, although she loved the young mauvian dearly, she was not about to cater to his every whim.

"Mel...get off the table. It is hardly polite to put your kitty paws, no matter how clean on something that is not yours." She moved to lift the giant cat only seconds before the other began to speak. So, it was time to begin.

Setting her friend back on the ground, she made motion to the masks. She would grab a black mask and place it upon her face. She wrinkling her nose at the feeling. 'ok Sita...you can do this. no one if here to really harm you. Remember that'

She took a few steps back, making a look around before watching her friend and fellow council member take off and into the fray. "So it begins!"

Team White - Nirvana, Page of Pluto - HP: 30

Upon hearing the rules laid out before him, Nirvana smiled and took the steps needed to obtain his mask, placing the white frame about his eyes and glancing back at the others gathered. He might have been low in the power scale, but at least he was fast.

"come and get me if you can!" he laughed, taking off at full speed into the shadows of the buildings the surrounded the area. It was time to play, and it had been far too long since he had had a good old fashioned fight.

Team Black - Eternal Sailor Eurydike - HP: 50

A sheepish smile crept onto Eurydike's face, easing back the boldness long enough to admit, "Honestly, could use that - real sick of gettin' my a** handed to me, man." Then he kind of grimaced. "Honestly, it's not fair that they gotta be involved in this s**t to begin with." He tried to avoid hitting kids when he could help it... but honestly, not that he was changing his tune or anything, but chibis tended to be ******** brats about it.

Hey kids, maybe don't take part in an ancient galactic ******** you old dude can is old enough to actually be in a damn war, we got ******** kids. He was so relieved he didn't have to worry about that with Rhys. Dogs and goldfish were definitely the way to go.

Eurydike blinked, surprised and a little confused that Gev might actually know Emrys already, but then the whole twin thing came up and - "Oh, yeah, " he had to laugh, because it'd been long enough since he'd met Fritz that it wasn't even really weird for him anymore. It wasn't like he really forgot, but sometimes he kind of did; he was around both of them, especially Rhys, that there was no mixing them up. Even if it wasn't for the different hair and fashion sense, their build, the glint of their eyes, even their heights - "You ask me, I got the cuter one, " he stage-whispered, leaning over and pressing his lips messily to Emrys' cheek in a warm little gesture of affection.

With Hydor headed their way, he waved loudly again, and the game was getting underway. Thank god he had another way to do this. Sort of. He patted himself down real quick and sort of settled for tugging the whole thing down around his neck so the mask was dangling there in front of him. Maybe a little harder to remove? "We should stick together then, yeah, team?" he offered, hoping since they were all on the same team no one would protest. "Who's our first target? - got your eye on anyone, Gev?"

Chibi Super Sailor Ara
Team White - HP: 30

Ara was tossed off onto the grass by the older girl she puffed her cheeks in annoyance before giggling as she pushed herself up. She considered herself something of an expert when it came to rough housing from playing with her daddy. Although she loved "girly" things like tea parties and dress up she equally loved more physically active things like wrestling, she was proud to say she always won against her father. She had an idea of how to deal with this older senshi.

She ran at the girl again but this time she slide between her legs like she was going for home plate in little league. Once behind the senshi she lept onto her back locking her little arms around the girl neck. "You're alot of fun but I really want to win." She said happily to the girl as she tried to reach for the mask while trying to hang onto the older girl.
