"Toutatis power, make up!"
Natron turned, expecting Toutatis to come out of the bushes, except...Vythica was gone and Toutatis was there and holy s**t, the universe suddenly made way more sense.
Vythica...was Toutatis. No wonder they had been so drawn together, twice. Destiny was at work. Or something.
"Now that is good luck," he said. He definitely liked the idea of having Toutatis at his side fighting this Super Senshi. "Toutatis, be careful, please!" He wasn't entirely thrilled that she was now in as much danger as him, but she was a badass Senshi and he was pretty sure they could do this. He ran in, waiting for an opening to land a good hit on her.

His concern for her safety was endearing. But Toutatis wasn't too worried at the moment. She was in full on bitchy mode. Honestly, coming to the park probably wasn't the best idea they were bound to run into someone.
Oh well, too late now.
She rolled around with the Senshi for a minute before Toutatis was able to roll her onto her back. Straddling the other girl and getting a good grasp of her hair before she gave the Order Senshi a few good punches to the face. "Ruining my ******** date why couldn't you of just stayed home!"
Eventually the Order Senshi had gotten enough weight behind her to toss Toutatis off of her and regain some composure. Toutatis merely rolled along the ground a couple of times before she came to rest on her stomach. Her hands planted firmly on the ground as she pushed herself back up, watching intently as Natron moved in.

Damn, okay, Natron took note of the fact that one never interrupted a date. Women were ******** scary. Or maybe it was just Toutatis.
Whatever. Once Toutatis was off, he pitched his dodgeball at the Senshi and followed up by running in and kicking at her stomach. The Senshi let out a loud "oof." He ran over to Toutatis, offering a hand. "You alright?" He asked, concerned.

Taking his hand, she hoisted herself up off the ground fully now. Brushing herself off with her hands before tossing her hair back over her shoulder. "Yea, go get that other dude and take him somewhere fast I got a little unfinished business before we go and you don't want to get caught up in it...."
She stalked towards the Senshi who was still clutching her stomach. The heels of her boots clicking against the pavement, pale blue eyes burning a hole right through her. Lifting her right hand, Toutatis folded in her thumb and two middle fingers leaving her pointer and pinkie finger free. Her head turned sharply to the side. "Go now!"
With her attention fully on the Super in front of her, she lowered her hand to point her fingers at her. Toutatis' body faintly glowed green. "Horror Creeps...." Her voice was barely above a whisper now which didn't matter too much as the Order Senshi's eyes widened in fear. Her mouth opened to let out a blood curdling scream as she fell backwards to the ground, pushing herself back and away from Toutatis with her feet.

Natron nodded. "Don't get hurt," he said firmly, running over to check on his comrade. The poor Nega was barely conscious, and Natron hoisted him up, pulling him back in the direction of the path.
He avoided straying too close to Toutatis, though, because he could see what her attack was doing to the White Mooner...and hell, she was the Senshi of Horror, he didn't really want to find out what she could do. He stopped walking to watch in wonder, amazed at the power of magic that was totally invisible to him.

A small smile tugged at the corner of her mouth. Half from Natron's firm command and half from the terror in the Senshi's eyes. Her attack came and went quickly but the fear exuding from her still lingered.
Toutatis reveled in it as she stood there, looming over her as the Order Senshi quickly scrambled to her feet and back up a few more steps. Keeping a bit of distance between them.
"Not what you expected huh?" Toutatis grinned wide. It was the first time she had ever really used her magical attack. And while it was refreshing to watch the sudden rush of adrenaline leaving her body almost knocked her over. It would take a while to get used to that.
She cast a quick glance over to Natron. At least he had managed to get out of distance

Natron set the other Nega down by the path, receiving a soft "thanks" from his fellow Lieutenant. Then, he walked back over to Toutatis, frowning.
"She saw you transform," he said quietly. She knew that Toutatis was Vythica. He was pretty sure that wasn't okay. And it definitely wasn't okay with him. Some random Order-sider knowing his girlfriend's civilian identity? Nuh-uh. Not happening.
He couldn't believe what he was thinking of doing. She couldn't be allowed to tell anyone else, and they couldn't exactly pinky swear her to secrecy. But Painite had mentioned that even Lieutenants could take starseeds.
"Can you find a way to keep her still?" He asked quietly. His expression had hardened into something strange and cold. It looked wrong on his face. But there was only one way this could end.

She quirked an eyebrow at his request. Not entirely sure about the look on his face or the sound of his voice. But he was right. The Senshi had seen her transform. How stupid of her but Toutatis had been caught up in the moment and if she hadn't powered up things would have gone a lot differently she was sure.
With out a word, Toutatis nodded. The Order Senshi quickly turned to run but was quickly dragged back by her hair. Whirling the girl around to face Natron, she twisted her arm behind her back. Holding on to her as best she could as the other girl wriggled and kicked, fighting to break her grasp.
"Bad day for you."

Bad day, Toutatis described it as. Yeah, this was gonna be a pretty damn bad day. He walked forward and took a deep breath. Damn, he was actually doing this.
He reached out, focusing, and his hand went into her chest. Just like Painite's had when she corrupted him. But he wasn't going to open the girl's eyes to Chaos. He couldn't, not at his level.
So he wrapped his fingers around her starseed. She screamed. He pulled, removing it from her chest. She fell limp.
He staggered back, staring at the small object in his hands. This small thing was her entire life force. Insane.

When the girl went limp Toutatis let her go. Staring down at her crumpled up body, skin blue and cold as ice. At least it was one less Order Senshi to hassle those of Chaos.
Her eyes lifted up to watch Natron from beneath her bangs. The look on his face stirred a frown onto her lips. She picked up that it was probably his first ever kill, most didn't have that opportunity until they were a higher level. But this had been a desperate situation. The girl was too strong and knew too much to just let her walk away. Toutatis had yet to kill anyone yet what Natron had did was no lost on her.
He'd killed someone to protect her.
She stepped closer to him, ignoring the star seed in his hands as she brushed her fingers against his cheek. A frown still on her lips. "Thank you."

Natron was still staring at the starseed in his hand. He had utterly horrified himself. He had just killed someone. But it was for the right reason, right? It was to keep Vythica, and Toutatis, safe. And to remove one alien invader from his planet.
When she touched his cheek, he looked up at her. His fist closed around the starseed...
And he henshin'd down. "You're welcome, Vyth."

It felt as if her eyes were about to bug out of their sockets as she watched him power down. Where Natron had been there stood."Gabe..." She should have put two and two together. Gabe would have been here by now since she had run off and yet he had been no where during the fight. It made sense.
Grasping at her brooch, Toutatis powered down as well after peeking quickly at where he had left the other Lieutenant who was passed out cold. Vyth slipped her henshin pen back into her coat pocket before wrapping her arms around herself. "So....I guess you know now. Are you going to be ok?"

Gabe nodded. He suddenly felt very, very cold. He tucked the Senshi's starseed into the pocket of his pants, his expression a little distant.
"What a way to trade identities, huh," he said, his attempt at humor and the accompanying smile both a little weak. "I-I think I'm gonna be okay, yeah," He looked up at her. "What about you? You're the one that really got in hand to hand. I just...finished the job. She didn't hurt you too badly, did she?"

Vyth didn't like the distant look in his eyes. This had to be hard. No, she knew it was hard for him. Gabe wasn't a cold hearted killer. He did this cause she had been stupid.
Internally she was beating herself up inside.
"Well, I guess it was bound to happen one way or another." She rubbed at the back of her neck a bit roughly. "I'll probably be a little sore for a day or two but that comes with the job."
Stupid Senshi. Why did she have to cross their path tonight?
Grasping Gabe's now free hand, Vyth stepped closer to him. Leaning her head against his chest, eyes half lidded as she wrapped her other arm around his waist.

"Hah, yeah, I guess it was," he admitted. Truth be told, the idea of keeping secrets from Vyth had bothered him, but it was all out in the open now.
"As long as you're okay," he said. That was what was important to him right then. He would deal with what he had just done later.
He wrapped his free arm around her shoulders, holding her close. He took several long, slow breaths. "I'm fine, really." No he wasn't, but damn it here was going to be for a few minutes. He could break down or whatever when he got home.
