((SORRY ZEE AND BETH))
He was out again, desperately searching for even the smallest clue as to where the others had disappeared too. It nagged constantly at the back of his mind, every moment spent trying to rest was filled with constant worry of what was happening to missing family. Scheelite was driving himself past what even -he- knew he was capable of, past the boundaries of sugar highs and energy drink fueled rampages to a new level of desperation and energy. He would find them, god damnit. They would find them and they would be okay and everything would go back to the way it had been.
It had to...
The captain tiredly trudged his way through the streets, too tired to even take his search to the rooftops and also too tired to really even -care- he was down here with the 'normal people'. They couldn't read his aura, couldn't tell his uniform was anything more than some kind of raver outfit. Why exhaust himself further when any clues would probably be down here on the streets anyway?

Many civilians passed the captain by, not seeming to truly notice him. There were much stranger prowling the streets of Destiny City now, and what was a blonde dressed like a raver compared to a monster ?
Scheelite also failed to register on Ashley's radar, the purple-haired girl having turned the corner a few seconds prior and now slowly walking toward him, unaware that one of those so-called 'terrorists' was right in her face. Both hands were into the pockets of her jacket, and she continued on her way.

It was only -after- he had passed by Ashley that Scheelite seemed to notice anything in his wild hunt. The captain stopped dead in his tracks, stared ahead for a moment, then quickly whirled around to watch Ashley's purple head bob off into the distance.
He knew that person.
He could -swear- he knew that person...
And right now it was drilled into his mind to find and protect anyone he knew, so it clicked that he should turn and follow her and be sure she was okay.
Cue one raver boy stalking through the crowd to follow after Ashley.

At first, the short teenager didn't seem to notice. She continued on her way, turning a few corners as she continued to head toward her home before one such a turn caught sight of the blonde.
...
Even then, it was only when she caught glimpse of him again that she turned, brows furrowed. "So, why the hell are you following me for ?"
She had no idea who he was. Schee might figure otherwise, now that he was getting a good look at her.

"I know you."
Head tilted, he trudged forward until he was Right. There.
"I so know you...you shouldn't be out here! It's dangerous! Stuff could happen and if anyone else I know gets hurt I dunno what I'll do. But I -know you-, you're Ashley...and I really don't want to see you hurt!"
He looked worried, and panicked, and more than just a little tired. He slowly put out one spiked glove, willing her to take it so he can whisk her to safety.

It was a pretty funny scene if anyone was bothering to look at it. Ashley didn't step back, but her head was craning up and up and up to keep on looking at Schee's face as he got closer and closer.
What, the last few months didn't suck enough, she had to have a crazy stalker too ? "Who the hell are you." She asked. "And how the hell do you know my name ?"
Gotta love transformation magic. There was a reason she hadn't moved yet, through - somehow, the blonde felt familiar. But she couldn't tell how, or why, or where she might have possibly seen him before. Infaturating.
She stared at the hand for a moment, and then took it before realizing that she had.
This could be a bad idea....

"I told you, I know you! You know me too, but I can't tell you how right now it's dangerous."
He was relieved to see she took his hand. When looking back on this later he'd probably realize just how weird it'd be to have someone run up to you proclaiming you knew them and they were in danger.
Scheelite wasn't thinking much right now.
It was only a moment later they both found themselves teleported to the top of the roof. It was likely jarring for Ashley, but it put a horrible drain on the already exhausted captain and he quickly let go of her hand to drop to the ground below.
"Safer...up here."

It was the weirdest thing Ashley Desmond had experienced in her whole sixteen years of life, hand down.
One second she was on the sidewalk, starting up as the strange blonde continued going on and on without answering her question at all, and then the next, they were gone and on some roof, her stomach was trying to crawl it's way up to swap places with her brain, and the blonde crumbled down like a card castle.
Ashley wasn't too far behind, wobbling and loosing her balance with a high-pitched eep. She was likely to grill him about what the hell did he even just do... as soon as her brain started working again.

For a long while the captain made no attempt to move. He simply laid there, right on the verge of passing out from sheer exhaustion. Somehow he kept his wits about, and pushing himself even further he somehow managed to slowly sit up. He didn't get beyond a seated position on the ground...and really that'd work well enough for now.
"S-sorry...that whole teleporting thing is odd...you'll be fine though! Really!"
At least better than he was looking.

Ashley still hadn't left the ground while Scheelite worked himself into a sitting position, eyes tightly shut and still inwardly fighting her gag reflex. No, she didn't want to puke on top of some random building, thank you very much. This wasn't exactly how she had planned to spend her night.
But then, being teleported by weird men hadn't exactly been on the list either. Wait, teleported ? What the s**t ?
Eventually, it was her turn to sit, wobblingly, eyes opening, and yet immediately softening as she looked at him. One hand went to her messenger bag, that she pulled a water bottle out of to hand to him.
"How... How the hell did you do that ?" Normal people didn't teleport. Did that mean he was one of those terrorist dudes ?

A shaky hand went out to take the water bottle, which he gratefully accepted and immediately opened to drink from. Scheelite took a long damn drink before finally pulling it away from his lips and eying her again.
He probably should stop randomly grabbing people and teleporting them...
"It's...just something I can do. Please don't freak out I swear the news and all that lies about us. We're not so bad! We don't want to kill everyone, we're trying to help please believe me."
How on earth did you explain to people you weren't really a terrorist? Well..he had to practice! After all he was looking into making this sort of thing his speciality.

Ashley felt a headache coming in.
That might or might not have originated from suddenly being teleported god-knew-where.
She hadn't dared to look down to try to figure out where they were yet. She wasn't sure if she wanted too.
"Well... I figure if you had wanted to kill me, you would have done it a long time ago." The realization only truly hit her while she spoke, and suddenly she was scared. She was on a roof with someone who could teleport.
This could potentially be pretty bad.

"I don't want to kill anyone, especially not someone I know..."
He took another long drink before seeming to recover...slightly. It would have been easier if he wasn't already exhausted, unfortunately he was.
"I'm...I'm sorry I can't tell you more, maybe one day...I just wanted you to know...needed you to know that I KNOW you and we're NOT dangerous! It's that other damn group of people in town, the Senshi with the crazy skirts and just...ugh, it's..not safe here. I really don't want to see you hurt..."
He paused a moment, suddenly seeming to realize that maybe she'd like some reassurance on the whole rooftop thing.
"...I can get you back down, promise."

Finally, she did dare to look down at the street below.
And found herself really, really hoping she could get her down. Hopefully without killing himself in the process. Because damn, they were high enough that it was giving her vertigo.
It was then that something he said seemed to catch her attention.
"Senshi ?" So wait, there were two terrorist groups ? God damn it.
If she hadn't been too busy yelling at Kaguya to observe the scene that had unfolded in front of her, she might have noticed that by now.

"Yes...the Senshi. They always go around saying they want to protect everyone and stuff but man they don't even belong here and I've seen them do terrible things and just..."
The boy fidgeted around more, his breath still labored but like hell he was going to let something like exhaustion get him down right now.
"You can do something about it, you know. The Senshi want to take over the planet, claim it for their own and destroy our way of life...but you can do something about it. I did, I fight for people down there who probably don't even know it, and if they do don't appreciate it...but still I fight because it's what's right to do. You can join us Ashley...you can have power, just like me! Power to make a difference in the world..."
