It was time.
She'd successfully managed to piss off a good deal of the population, thanks to not only her brilliant video recording that had managed to make its way on air, but the countless little deeds she'd performed throughout the week. Slashed tires. Broken windows. Leaping her way in and out traffic to cause numerous wrecks and quite a few injuries.
Nealite was having the time of her life being a total b***h in public, and she was disgracing the enemy with every action she took doing so.
Sighing happily, she looked upon the white cheerful doors of the East of Eden Nursing Home. While she was a complete menace to society by this point, she was still simply just Nealite spruced up.
Which meant it was going to be a b***h trying to get star seeds.
Therefore, using her ever so clever mind, she'd decided to make her first attempt at star seed gathering at one of the city's local nursing homes. Old people ran slow. Old people hardly moved. Old people were perfect targets.
Oh, this was going to be a really good day!

What was going on?
Senshi on the run? Dont trust the Senshi? Vandalism at its best? Dial 911 if seen? What the HELL was going on?
Lyre and Chloe just stared at the tv in their home. Her parents not being home- Chloe had full opportunity to talk as she pleased.
"Lyre you need to go out and see what this is about. The reports seem to all be describing a Senshi as the culprit. That just can not be true-"
"I agree it is a little bizarre. Why would a senshi go around and do all this? Even so openly!" She was pulling on a coat while she said this- fall season was turning outside chilly. She was going to go out and do some investigating around in her normal form- in her civilian gear. It was not to be opening out in senshi form these days.
Lyre was going alone on this mission- fully convinced she would not get any action this time around. Afterall- it IS such a large city and she is only but one person! She only knew of one other senshi that roamed the area- she had not met a second yet... at least thats what she thought.
Strolling outside of her house she made her way for the overly crowded area's of town, that seemed to be the epicenter of all the troubles. She was so wrong about not finding anything today.
Standing right their in plain site was a senshi... and this particular senshi didnt have a exactly pleasant look on her face. Why did her hair color seem so familiar? Deciding it would be better to approach her in senshi form- just incase anything happened, Lyre ducked behind a dumpster and whispered. "Lyra star power, Make up!"
A moment later, she was walking towards the other senshi. "Hey.." She called out.

When it came to this "Rogue Sailor," Pegasus did not want at all want to get involved. The news everywhere blasted reports of this terrible senshi, destruction and despair following in her wake, casting the real 'protectors of the innocent' in a bad light. Frankly, she had had enough of people for a while. She had always been wary of people, but after a series of particularly confusing events, she wasn't sure what to believe anymore. She just wanted to stay out of it.
Old people were actually some of the few people Rea could get along with. Relatively harmless, they were lonely and at the end of their lives, something that even the cold Rea could sympathize with. While she had little sympathy for her peers or for most adults, when it came to the elderly, her reserved little heart grew three sizes that day... or at least for the time she was with them. She tried not to think of the psychology behind it -- that she probably sympathized with them best because they were often lonely, especially if they were in nursing homes, and she herself was... well...
Brushing the thought aside, Rea offered a small smile to the old woman laying rather helplessly in the crisp, white sheets, watching the pale, wrinkled hands stroke her pet tabby's soft fur, the cat purring contentedly in her arms. Every so often the Crystal girl came to the nursing home with her cream and orange tabby, offering to sit with the folks who were lonely and whose families didn't visit. While she herself was awkward with communication, when the old people saw the kitty, their faces usually lit up, and for those few moments, everything seemed alright in the world for them. After all the crap she saw, Negaverse or otherwise, it renewed her faith in humanity.
As it was, Rea had no idea that just a few walls away "Sailor Nealite" was on the prowl, eager to use the poor older folk for her own terrible gain, just as blissfully unaware that Sailor Lyra hot on her tail.

At hearing the 'hey', the Negaverse lieutenant turned her head and immediately when wide-eyed when she saw who it was. If it had been any other person, hell, any other senshi, then she could have played it off. But no. Out of all the senshi in Destiny City to run into her, it had to be the one that nearly friggin' choked her to death the last time they met.
Taking a deep breath, she watched as the senshi took another step closer to her. Should she fight off this senshi? Could she take her on with nothing but a worthless mirror?
No. Nealite knew better. Should anyone catch a senshi fighting with another senshi, then her cover might be blown, and that was a risk she was not willing to take.
Giving the girl the best smile she could under the current circumstances, Sailor Nea opened the door to the nursing home and skipped right in, welcoming the screams of all the patients and workers right inside the doorway.
Once inside, she quickly darted to her left, but not before reaching out and yanking away an elderly gentleman's star seed. With him gasping and falling to the ground as everyone around him screamed and stared, Nealite took the opportunity to make her way further into the nursing home, determined to snag at least seven or eight star seeds before that pesky redhead could stop her.

Still walking towards 'sailor Nealite' Lyra could not help but feel the hairs on the back of her neck rise. Something was clearly not right with this senshi- and just the way she looked was causing her to raise an eyebrow- like a distant memory was screaming at her.
Then the fake senshis next action had caused her conviction. Darting into a building with ELDERLY NONE THE LESS, and the screaming. Her next move was simple- lyra was at the door in a flash and was also inside.
The whole scene was a mad house. People were scrambling away as fast as they can- and the receptionist at the front was talking to someone frantically. People screamed also when she entered- and then she saw the corpse laying there right in the middle of the walkway.
STARSEEDS? This 'senshi' was stealing starseeds!? Their was no way she could be senshi! She just wouldn't believe it!
Thats when she turned and made a mad dash the direction that the fake senshi went. Unfortunately- it was not only blatantly obvious which way she was heading due to the screams.... she also left behind corpses. Like leading breadcrumbs to a child. Lyra picked up her speed- she needed to catch her and now. If she could have she would have summoned her power to put her dust all over the area. That would not help her though. If the 'fake' senshi was indeed a senshi just gone wild.. it would aid her in getting the starseeds.
Further ahead she thought she saw the Orange haired senshi dart into another room.

The first screams were the first indicator to Rea that something was wrong. As the screaming continued, the strawberry blonde girl got a worse and worse feeling about the situation, something nudging the back of her mind, urging her to go look, and by the way, change while you're at it. There wasn't any mistaking this for someone just slipped and fell. There was a panic in the screams, the kind that released the carnal need to survive in people, the kind that made people trample other people to get out of a burning building.
Rea stood up suddenly, the chair she had been sitting on sliding a few feet from the force, her blue-green eyes going to the door for a few moments before back to the old woman in the bed. She was sleeping peacefully, blissfully unaware of the screams, aided immensely by being more than half deaf. Silently the Crystal girl thanked her lucky stars and looked around, making a face at the broom closet before stepping inside, closing the door with a click.
Why was she always changing in such strange places?
A few moments later, as well as a cry for 'Pegasus Star Power, Make Up!' and she emerged as Sailor Pegasus, already heading down the hall, her pace slower than it probably should have been. She knew what she would find. Or she thought she knew what she would find. Opening a door to one room, the teal-skirted senshi physically jerked back in surprise, the sight of a redheaded 'senshi' startling her into a stupor. Why did she look so familiar... and why was her heart pounding ten times faster than it should be because of it?

The nursing home was in complete chaos.
The elderly had thought it bad when the first senshi arrived on the scene, but it had only taken minutes for the other two to arrive as well. Three evil murderesses in their peaceful nursing home?
Nealite turned around in surprise as she saw the second senshi standing there. Wait a second... <********>. It was Sailor Pegasus and why the hell were all the senshi she had run into all coming out of the woodworks now!?
She stared stupidly at her for a moment, clearly both speechless and thoughtless at the sudden arrival. The shrieking of the little old ladies and men running around brought her mind back to reality, and she grabbed both of Pegasus's arms and swung her back around into the other room. Closing the door behind her, she let out a forced laugh as she exclaimed, "Tag, you're it!"
Sailor Nea had already managed to swipe a good six star seeds, but six was still a far cry from what she should have been raking in. Hmph.
Making a dash, she attempted to head towards the other side of the building. Perhaps she could snatch a few more there, before fleeing?

Mentally growling- the sweet little Sailor Lyra was actually becoming...irritated? She normally did this feel these kinds of emotions- but the orange haired 'senshi' seemed to just irk her. Still Chasing she barely caught the glimpse of the third senshi being tossed into the room.
Should she forget the other senshi and just continue chasing after the fake? If she stopped now it would only put her further behind. If one thing she learned- and remembered well- it was to never leave a man (or in this case- woman) behind. Making a abrupt stop- Lyra opened the door as fast as she could- and grabbed the wrist of Sailor Pegasus.
"Move your butt!" She said- practically dragging the other senshi behind her for a while until she eventually let go as they darted down yet another corridor.
She hated to do this- but she could not stop and help the elderly which seemed to be so deathly afraid of all three of them. It ached her to see them screaming at the sight of her- when they fell over she wanted to help them up- she wanted to comfort them and tell them it would be alright. Lyra did not have time for such things- she needed to move.
She did something someone could see as stupid next- but her senshi stamina and reflexes screamed for it to happen. She crouched down- and using her hind legs shoved off real hard. Her goal was to try and grab SOME part of the fake Senshi before she could round another corner.

"Wha...?!"
As abruptly as she had stepped out the door, she was turned around again, the unknown black and orange-clat senshi grabbing her by the arms and spinning her around again, shoving her back into the room where the woman still lay sleeping peacefully. What just happened?!
It took Pegasus a few minutes to realize she had been duped, and she scowled, turning around again and throwing open the door. Once again, however, she was grabbed, this time by a senshi she had never seen before. Bright red hair, blue skirt... she was really startled to see yet another redhead in this chase. They now effectively had a lovely palette of red. Grunting a little in surprise, she followed close as the girl pulled her in the direction the rogue senshi had headed, taking note of her new and sudden teammate with interest. Elegant blue ribbons adorned her fuku, wrapping around her ankles and hemming her stockings and gloves, giving her a light, surreal look. Bright green eyes, now narrowed a little in clear irritation at the scenario gave Pegasus the impression she was normally a rather good-natured girl. Pretty heart shaped face, stunning red hair...
Pegasus shook her head, starting to run by herself as soon as the new senshi let her go. The sudden lunge threw her off guard, but she quickly followed suit with a little less gusto, pushing off a nearby shelf to shove herself forward, just in case the blue-skirted girl missed. This was turning into a wild goose chase, a twisted version of Hansel and Gretel with dead bodies instead of breadcrumbs.

The wild and terrified stares of the elderly sent a reminder to Nealite as she dashed away from the two other senshi. What would happen if everyone figured out that she was being chased, that the others had no intentions of causing harm? Up until this point, everything had been fine... but perhaps the situation needed a bit more convincing.
Laughing, she turned her head as she moved down the hallway.
"Catch me if you can, girls!" her voice rang out, a challenge wrapped in playful banter as she stepped to the side, unaware she was now within arm's reach of the redheaded Lyra. She soon found herself flying downwards, and her arms went flailing, taking an elderly woman with her to the ground as the poor woman was attempting to do nothing more than escape the trio of terror.

She connected. She felt herself land rather... un gracefully ontop of the fake sailor- but she still had caught her. Lyra also felt the third senshi hot on her heels- most of her attention was on the sailor under her though.
"WHAT do you think your doing!" She exclaimed at sailor nea- still not letting go. "Starseeds! Do you even know your KILLING people!? Who are you!?" She had a slight growl in her voice- she normally was not this agitated.
That was when she noticed the poor elderly woman that they had landed on. The woman was apparently silent from the shock, staring up at them with fear clearly evident all over her face. Lyra immediately felt a pang of sadness and guilt- this was her fault. Oh no...

Pegasus skidded to a halt, wincing as the sound of bodies crashing into the ground filled the air. Well, at least she had gotten her. Sliding one eye open, she peered at the odd scene before her, the mass of tangled limbs almost comical, although the sight of the elderly woman on the ground beside them dampened the mood. The rogue sailor's sing-song voice still rang in her ears, so familiar, and yet she couldn't put her finger on it. Where had she seen her? Heard her? It was on the tip of her tongue.
'Catch me if you can, girls!'
Brushing away the cold feeling, the teal-skirted sailor took a hesitant step forward, keeping her distance, just in case 'Sailor Nea' managed to escape Lyra's grip. She could hear the other senshi half yelling at the orange and black scout, the word 'starseeds' sending a chill down Pegasus' spine. How could this happen? Behind them, she knew there were six plus elderly people strewn about like ragdolls, already dead, the strain of having their starseeds taken probably not even letting them transition into a coma first. She didn't need to even look behind her to know it. The sound of the elderly crying in fear was enough to make her feel sick to her stomach, and for once she was slightly ashamed to be a senshi, despite how she forced herself to stand tall.
Had she known Lyra's inner termoil, she might have approached, might have awkwardly tried to comfort her, and firmly tell her it was NOT her fault. But as it was she stood awkwardly to the side, reserved. As usual.

Nealite was busy trying to collect herself and her thoughts after the fall that she nearly hadn't caught the senshi addressing her.
Struggling under the senshi's grip, the lieutenant managed to turn herself, falling off from on top of the old woman, yet still under the firm hold of the redhead.
Slightly out of breath from the wiggling, she grinned as she noticed the senshi hesitating at the realization that there had been a third figure to come toppling down. Seizing the opportunity, her hand shot out and snatched Lyra's, her grip painful and tight.
"What am I doing?" She asked innocently, "Don't you mean what are you doing?"
Without giving the girl time to think over her words, the older woman drove the redhead's hand into the elderly woman's chest cavity. The woman emitted a sharp scream, and Nea quickly forced the girl's hand around the star seed within, closing her fingers on top of it. Once closed, she practically ripped the child's hand out of the old woman's body, who slumped unconscious once her star seed departed from within her.
"I believe you are the one that just killed our poor friend," Nealite cooed, slipping her fingers within the girl's grip and snagging the star seed for herself, "So perhaps you should be asking yourself that question?"
Her knee jerked up by this point, coming into contact with the girl's stomach. The lieutenant had enough star seeds to call this mission a success, and it was time to get out and get out fast, before more of these pesky children could show up.

The only reason Lyra was refraining from punching the sailor under her previously was because something just seemed WRONG about attacking another senshi. The look on the 'fake' senshi under her is what caused her view on things to change- and she rounded up ready to try and punch the orange haired woman.
Things did not end up that way though. Before she even registered the words she already found her wrist grabbed and something warm on her palm. She was forced to grab the starseed within the chest of the terrified lady. The warmth of life within it was strong and pure... that was until the other scout forced her hand to rip it out. It all went so fast- within a few seconds. One second the woman was staring at her with fearful eyes, and the next she gave her a souless look. That look will always haunt her- not only what it felt like to grip ones life force within her own hands, but also what it felt like to take away that life force. It really was a whole new was to violate someone, and she was the one whom did that. She violated this poor woman and sent her to her own doom.
If that was not enough- before she even thought of trying to shove the starseed back into the poor womans chest, Sailor nea took the warmth away from her and delivered a hard blow to her stomach. She lurched over and grasped her stomach; she could feel her lunch trying to make its way out of her body. Managing to hold back the gagging reflex- she felt helpess as the orange haired sailor wiggled out from underneath her. Lyra looked up and made sure to make eye contact with her- and gave her a look of pure ice.

The whole scene went in slow motion, Rea's eyes following the motion of the two hands delving into the woman's chest, helpless to move, too stunned to prevent it. Later, she would feel the guilt of not getting their fast enough to prevent it, but for the moment, she felt as if she were moving in slow motion as she dashed forward. The blow to the stomach, and Pegasus had managed to close the distance between her and the two 'senshi', immediately jumped into action, ready to grab Sailor Nea as she jumped up. Yet in the corner of her eye, the strawberry blonde girl saw Lyra doubled over, not only looking winded, but horrified, angry and helpless, the look jarring her, causing her to pause, torn. If she went after the senshi, she would leave Lyra alone, potentially hurt, and helpless if she were caught by the authorities. If she didn't though, the rogue senshi would get away, taking all the starseeds and escaping unscathed.
