Halley heard the commotion outside and blinked looking up at Cetus, "I'm Halley," She added as she stood up brushing herself off wincing a little bit.
"We might should see what's going on out there, and see if we can help." She pointed her thumb in the direction of all the noise as she walked out into the hallway just in time to catch they couldn't leave?
She paused and looking back where they'd come from and then forward. "You guys realize that all the negaverse agents are in front of us, Right?" She saw more coming up behind the generals.
Then she also smelled chocolate. "We can still go back the way we came. . . " The Senshi of superstition couldn't help but point that out.

Babylon Knight of Mercury
His attempts at feeling out their opposition's numbers hadn't borne fruit, but now that the hallway was filling up with curious onlookers, he realized that he didn't need to. Yes, most of the Negaversers here were injured in some way... but that didn't mean that they couldn't still fight - and with Chara, formerly the most gung-ho among them ready to high-tail it out of here, it seemed high time to do the same.
Preferably before Avalon got herself killed.
Babylon vanished his lantern, hopefully to broadcast his non-violent intentions, and darted forward. He looped his arm through Avalon's, pulling her towards him.
"My apologies," he said, addressing Diancite and Blazikenite. "We are clearly in the wrong place. Thank you for your hospitality - we'll see ourselves out."
The Generals had already given them far more leeway than was required. Order was clearly in the wrong here, invading a hospital with intentions to attack. Babylon had wanted to leave for some time now - and he was grateful for the out.
"There's nothing for us here," he said in an undertone, primarily to Avalon as he tried to lead her away. Forget the pleading - it was likely something far beyond their ability to help. Their target was Metallia, was it not?
Something suddenly struck him as odd. He turned back towards the generals.
"You seem very nonchalant about our being here," said Babylon, directing the question to Blazikenite and Diancite once more. "In the Rift. Where we should have no access. Why?"
Mel couldn't suppress the growl that rumbled in his chest as a resounding crash occurred behind what was left of his group. His hair stood on end and his tail puffed out... if that didn't call out the negas nothing would. His suspicion was right when not one but two generals showed up and warned them all to get lost.
He glanced at Kastra and promptly placed himself between her and the negas. He would go where she went. His growl picked up in volume until the sound was quite loud in the confining hallway as more and more negas showed up.
When Phact suggested their group going the cat nodded, keeping his eye on the enemy. "Go... I'll follow. No one will get past me!" Mel might have been a cat, and not terribly bright, but he took his duty as a guardian quite seriously. He would protect those he was put in charge of protecting.

Ambrosia- Infirmary
Of course something would happen right as she introduced herself.
There was a god-awful crashing noise, and Ambrosia flinched, her nerves jumping like electricity. She ran to the door that everyone came in, and saw that people were in a standoff. She slammed the door, leaning against it with wide eyes.
"They know we're here." she gasped, hands splayed against the wood grain she leaned against. "We've gotta get out of here!"
He had stumbled, when she had, and her loss of balance had resulted in him stumbling back into a counter top and hitting it with his back. "It's ok, are you alright?" He asked offering her a hand up before turning his golden eyes toward the sounds being made. "i think we've been busted..." He said slowly.
Nodding to her comment about the lighter, and not telling anyone about it, he headed out into the hall and paused staring at the scene. This wasn't good...but no one was attacking anyone and that was odd but also very good.
"Are we all going to not fight? That is good, if we're not, this is not a place to fight." Not where people were injured and hurt - unable to fight or defend themselves. As it seemed their group was seeing themselves out he nodded his head once. "Looks like we'll be going." And he was glad for this, it was something good and unexpected by him.
"Halley, you can call me Cetus." And it seemed his own group had already left and he had to now find them...and get out of here. Oh well, he'd manage.

Gorner had been trailing behind everyone, not wanting to get in anyones way. She was new to this all and without either of her cousins here she was unsure what she was doing or what she was expected to do. She did however know a bad situation when she saw one and all these people, with weapons, was a bad thing.
Deciding to take advantage of how she had not been close to anyone, and really had gone unnoticed the page took off after the group she spotted running off. A senshi in white, with hints of red, and someone in some form of uniform. Yes, she took off after them and hoped no one would try and stop her. She was glad she lacked heels, or she might trip, as she headed after the group as fast as her legs could move - which was fairly fast.

Super Oberon
”Whoo!” Oberon raised a fist into the air to cheer about the idea of not dying or having to try and kill anyone, because that was totally not very good and they were the good guys, right??
“Alright, let’s go,” he said to both Chara and Perdita, turning to see where the others went to so they could peace the hell out of there.
And yet, even as he took a step back the way they came, there was still that pull of whatever was pleading to them. What was that? And there were obviously still several senshi and knights who were being drawn towards it. In his heart, he knew he was being drawn towards it as well, and would regret not finding out if whatever it was could have been helped by them.
Oberon, despite being 5’8” at this point in his life, was still just arms and legs and knew he didn’t look at all intimidating, so that wasn’t a skill he was going to even attempt using.
However, seeing as the two Generals seemed more interested in protecting the injured than killing them (yet), he thought rolling to check for diplomacy would be the next best option. Hopefully he’d roll a twenty.
”Listen,” he said, turning back to the Generals with his arms up to show he was not planning on attacking. “We’ve got this weird feeling of something calling to us, and obviously many of us don’t want to leave before we find out what it is. We don’t want to hurt the sick and injured. Look at us; we’re a bunch of kids. You won’t be able to corrupt the youngest kids, so if you want to stop them, will you kill them?” he morbidly wondered out loud. “Let us save whatever is calling to us, and we’ll leave.”
He wasn’t going to leave Oort, Tomlin, or any other senshi of knight to search for the source of pleading on their own.

Diancite paused as she looked towards those who were speaking to them. One saying they couldn’t go back the way they came another asking why they were being spared mercy when they didn’t belong. Another asking about killing, she shook her head looking at Blazikenite for help.
Blazikenite narrowed his eyes at Spacewatch.Mouthy little brat, she was. “Out is the way you came.” He said. He glanced over at the group heading for the stairs, (Sabine, Phact, and Myrrha) and jerked his head, and a pair of Captains - one with a short dagger and the other with a small chakram - moved over to intercept them.
He also glared, firmly, at Babylon. ”Someone must have let you in, so there’s a traitor - or a lot of traitors - somewhere. But right now, that’s not my problem.” He took half a step forward, content to let Diancite handle Avalon - she seemed to have it well in hand. The General pulled out another arrow, but it was obvious he was uninterested in inciting violence, really.
Diancite did address what she could which was Oberon’s question while keeping her eye on Avalon since there was another useless sword near by, the General kicked it to the side for good measure. “Oh sweetie, we don’t kill children unless there’s no other way around it.” It tugged at her heart a little, “Especially those as young as you and your fellow chibi senshi.” She could tell he was young, too young for her tastes in a warrior. “At your ages, you can learn far more than life and death of war. We protect and nurture our young ones, do our best to make sure they get the best education. Even the youngest we can bring in are sometimes far too young for their own good. However, there are some circumstances where the situation calls for dire need.” The woman paused as she looked at him, “Though accidents do happen, but I refuse to allow any deaths to happen here, between us in this building.”
Blazikenite inclined his head, to show his agreement with his partner’s assessment. “We’d prefer not to fight you. We also can’t let you forward.” It was simple as that.
However, there were still plenty of rooms with open and eminently lockable doors…
Quote:
For Order: Most of the agents are hovering near lockable doors, and there are three choices. Go back the way you came and leave, Fight the negaverse agents or attempt to shove all the agents into the lockable rooms there’s a lot of lts here but doesn’t it seem odd no one who could teleport has actually teleported?
Those closest to the stairwell can now tell there is something down stairs. However, to get to them the negaverse agents need to be out of the way.
Sabine wasn't going to sit around and get caught, so she kept going, heading down the stairs with the others. She didn't quite take them two at a time, but she definitely hustled down them as quickly as she could without falling or knocking anyone over.
Turning to Phact she said. "Think we can get a bit more cover?" She was curious if her friend had any more birds. She was also ready to use her magic again if need be, to propel someone further down the path.

Cordoba
This was all so very weird and the page had frozen, watching the Generals and other orders of Order like a deer caught in the headlights. Fleeing wasn't an option, and she didn't seem inclined to fight either, but hey - this was going to end up a fight, wasn't it.
Gods be good she wasn't happy, and the page summoned her weapon, instinctively holding it to protect her starseed from the front, watching the room. OK, right. Words. Words she'd try, even if the others failed, and she ignored the trees her panic was growing to look at General Blaziken.
"We haven't attacked your men - at least not until you came out at us." Cordoba said, tone smooth and calm, trying to focus on her radio voice. "Now look, we've already explained we can't very well go back, so why not order your men off of us and address things like adults? If you intend to fight, surely a powerful soldier duo as yourselves can sety good examples for your soldiers in the manners of the battlefield? This needn't be a slaughter. For either side."
Because she didn't want to be on the business end of some Captain or General, and get herself killed thank you.
Sailor Alsafi
Hmmm. those stairs must have a shiny at their end, much better than some crappy... Was this the book she thought it was? One horrible fanfic turned original novel went flying over Alsafi's shoulder as one more person shunned the trashy romance genre and the senshi decided to let the others bicker with agents and whatnot - she was going to pillage, and the senshi merrily strolled to the stairs, staring at the other order agents and chaos agents with an idle look for all of a few second before suddenly she seemed two times bigger, very loud, and highly hostile.
"HEY! MOVE IT! SOME OF US HAVE s**t TO LOOT YOU LITTLE TWITS! HEAR?! MOVE YOUR SKINNY BUMS AND LEMME GET MY CRAP DONE OR SO HELP ME I WILL BEAT YOU BLACK AND BLUE WITH YOUR OWN GENITELIA."
Sailor Alsafi, the mistress of... Well, not class, but still. She might mean it... Or not. It was hard to tell.
Babylon Knight of Mercury, responding to Blazikenite
Babylon saw an opportunity, and shook his head. There were those here who would call him traitor, he was sure, but the Code had been clear - the balance was a matter of Order and Chaos. An aberration such as Caedus was a threat to both sides - and surely the general would be interested to know how this invasion had come to knock on his doorstep, would he not?
He knew Order would resist his attempt to stop Caedus - perhaps it was necessary to find an unlikely partner? After all, Chaos was not his enemy - merely the overabundance of it. Both light and dark were necessary for balance.
"No traitor of yours," he answered Blazikenite, "But an escaped prisoner of the Negaverse - a man called Caedus. There is a portal back the way we came which leads directly to him. Metallia saw fit to imprison him once before - surely she would see fit to imprison him again."
In case that was not enough convincing, he added, "Caedus's stated goal is to return to his homeworld. If he succeeds, he will return to Earth and drain it dry. If the Negaverse truly stands for the protection of the planet, then is it not your duty to stand against him?"
He glanced towards Avalon, his grip tight on her arm - please don't ******** up this fairly transparent gambit for me.

Kastra, Senshi of Meditation (Still in tow with Sabine and Phact)
The young senshi had done her best to stay close to her mentor and the others. She was beginning to feel more than a bit useless in this, but as she noticed the pair of agents heading in their direction she felt that it would be one of the more useful times for her to use her skill.
The aggression she felt in the air, not only from the two obeying commands, but from Blazekinite, was near stifling for her. Oh how she hated the heat of anger, and she would be hell bent to give these agents a moment of calm.
She placed a hand on Phact's shoulder, noting as Sabine took the stairs at a rapid pace. "I can slow them down, if nothing else they should be confused for a short time and it will give you both more time to get to the bottom."
She looked to Mel, she smiling at her friend for a moment before bending down to place a kiss on his head. "Follow them, I have to do this, because....I am a senshi, and I am not going to be useless here."
She rushed forward, trying to close the distance between her and the two coming toward them. If she got close enough before casting, she should have been able to make her attack affect Blazekinite as well.
As she reached the two foot mark before the others she fell into her attack stance "Kastra Calming Willow!"
Attack Effect
Sailor Scout Attack: Calming Willow
Sailor Kastra takes on the Standing Tree Posture with her hands placed palm to palm in front of her chest and calls out the name of her attack which immediately forms an aura around herself and anyone within a 7' radius. For the next 15 seconds an air of calmness reaches out from her blanketing those in this feeling of spiritual awareness and clarity. Any aggression or hostility an individual is feeling diminishes over time leaving them with a sense of clarity and peace.

Chibi Sailor Iduna of Apples (Empty Infirmiry Room with Cadmus)
Suddenly there were a lot of people talking. Iduna left Cadmus' side for a moment, sticking her head out of the door into the hallway. Several officers stood ready to fight the collected group of White Moon, though they seemed to be more wanting them to just go away than anything. One of the older knights seemed to be... painting Caedus in a poor light? To... get their cooperation? Maybe?
The pull came from beyond the Negaverse agents, though she couldn't see where.
A couple of senshi snapped to attacking really fast, and she ducked her head back into the room, closing the door.
"Staying here... yeah, let's not go out where the adults are fighting and glaring at each other, yeah..." she said, returning to his side and sort of shrinking behind one of the beds.

“s**t, Oberon!” Perdita said when Oberon used his attack on her. It was the first time in her life she'd ever uttered a curse word. “Not a good idea!”
She was usually the cautious sort, though she supposed she'd not proved it well throughout this adventure. As she felt Oberon's magic take effect on her, she was struck by the compulsion to throw caution to the wind and charge forward without a second thought. She resisted as much as she could, at least for now. They had to plan. They had to do this with caution and intelligence.
There were more agents, Lieutenants and Captains, coming into the fray, lessening the odds that had been stacked in Order's favor.
A part of her agreed with Chara's desire to get the hell out of there, but nothing was going to stop the Negaverse agents from coming after them. They had to deal with them somehow. Not kill them. She didn't think she was ready to have a hand in something like that, especially when there was still so much she could learn from them. But they could at least knock the agents out long enough for their group to make it out of there safely.
Even Oberon was deciding to peace out.
Perdita didn't believe the agents when they said they didn't want to fight. What dumbass wouldn't fight against the people who invaded their space? Plus, they were obviously hiding something. Perdita could still feel that strange sensation like she was being pulled forward. Among all the Chaos around them, this feeling didn't repulse her, so it was worth having a look to see exactly what it was.
And then the Knight who'd bitched at Chara went and opened his big mouth.
“Does anyone not think anything through?” she asked Oberon and Chara. “Yeah, let's tell them exactly how we got in here so they can go work on closing the portal to trap us here. Brilliant plan.”
The ranting caused her concentration to slip. Perdita could no longer resist the power of Oberon's magic. Though she wanted to hit the idiotic Knight upside the head, she resisted enough to change direction and swing her broom to offer a nice, solid blow to one of the agents hovering around the doors.
Spacewatch was left to frown. Mostly as she didn't agree with anything or anyone. "Hey-" she went towards Diancite, arms crossed. "Would you mind showing me what's being all weird cally summony before I do? I mean-" She motioned to their party. "Half of them are being dumb but harmless, the other half seem intent to be just dumb. Sure a few choice people seems to be all stab stab punch punch but-" She motioned to their own forces with the weapons out." It was a clear passive indicator. Somepeople just wanted a fight for the sake of a fight.
She was frowning. "There isn't a point anymore to being here. You found us, and you guys say you don't want to fight so why bother fighting.?"
She looked at the woman (Avalon) who seemed stab happy, then the group who had pretty much ruined all sense of sneaking. "I mean, aside from the obvious ordery-chaosy whatever. I just want to know what the heck is going on at this point. Cats don't explain things, Other senshi tell me this is about saving things, you guys say we're the bad guys and I just want answers." Defeated, Spacewatch lifted her arms and had them fall to her sides. "Whats here that's so funky feeling? What is even here at all? Nothing makes sense. I just wanted to help people and do what I was supposed to."
"This was stupid. I just what answers, and so far, nobody has been able to explain diddly squat."
