It hadn't been that long since Toutatis had been awoken. She had, at first, been a little wary of going out to patrol on her own. But after a few times she had begun to get a handle of it. Luckily for her she hadn't come across any Order aligned people just yet. Well, at least in powered form. She was pretty sure that anyone could possibly be one.
Not that she could tell anyway.
That was the tricky part. You never knew if your best friend was an Order Senshi or one of those Knights they kept around. Which tended to make her curious yet on guard half the time. Though she ever doubted she'd find out if someone she knew was, indeed, part of the 'terrorist' group'.
Toutatis stood in a darkened alley way. Arms crossed over her chest as pale blue eyes stared down at the body of some random dude. Her mirror wraith going to town like a ravenous dog. She hadn't decided yet if she enjoyed watching this. So every time she drained someone of their energy she would watch intently. Never letting her wraith go too far and suck them of all their energy.
Yet.

The idea of running into the enemy, being friends with them, even blood related to or romantically involved with the enemy was a lesson best learned quickly and accepted. Alexandre had learned, or rather realized, it fast and had for the longest time thought to limit himself to dating only someone he knew was on the same side. The problem was how hard it would be to do; he'd finally given up on the idea. He couldn't let the off chance, look at the odds, of him winding up involved with someone on the opposite side of the war.
The other problem though was hiding what he was, from nearly everyone in his life, he couldn't talk to people about it unless they were friends he made on the job. Tonight he'd left Johnathan, Bazzite, behind and gone out on his own to prowl around and rain energy when and where he could. His cell phone sat at home waiting for any possible calls from his mother, father, Michael, Lily - anyone who he'd need to find some excuse for not answering his phone for.
Leaping to another roof top following the weak signal he'd picked up he finally settled himself to sitting on a roof top ledge. "A new solider of chaos?" He asked, looking down at what had to be a Dark Mirror senshi, he knew what those wraiths looked like by now. Maybe this was someone he knew as a civilian? Like Natron was that boy, Gabriel, from school who he'd been looking at bringing into the Negaverse. Perhaps this solider of chaos wasn't someone he knew though.

She had pretty much just been paying attention to what was going on in front of her. But when the Chaos energy, rather large Chaos energy, finally registered. Toutatis' head snapped up, her eyes trailing to the roof top where she had sensed it. The Dark Mirror Senshi got this sneaking suspicion that the Negaversers were serious creepers. Spying on others from a distance seemed like something they did on a regular basis. She heard what sounded like a faint question, but she was unsure as to exactly what was being asked. Turning on her heels, she cocked her hip out to the side. Raising an eyebrow curiously as ruby colored lips pursed just a bit. "Ya know, being a creeper isn't a good quality to have."

"A creeper?" He questioned tilting his head. Loose blond hair curtained his face, and perhaps lent a bit of a mystery to his gender, while slate eyes watched her curiously. "I'll have you know that I'm no such thing. Simply a servant of chaos who's decided to track down the signature of another follower of chaos." He spoke while he swung his booted legs back and forth from where he sat. He was short, that was for certain, and rather primly dressed. But he wasn't so intimidating, was he? He most certainly wasn't a creeper.
"Tell me, which fellow follower of chaos have I come upon this evening?" He asked while one leg crossed over the other, his hands flat against the roof ledge on either side of his seated form. One hand left the roof ledge and his left arm elbow found itself resting upon his crossed leg, his chin found its way to his open left palm and rested there comfortably, if not a bit lazily.

"Yea well, spying on me from the roof tops smells like creeper to me." A playful smirk came to her lips. Tapping her left bracelet, her wraith quickly withdrew from its current energy draining. "Not that I mind. I know it's hard not to stare when you see someone as gorgeous as me." Giving a small flick of her hair back of her shoulder, Toutatis eyeballed his lazy posture. For such a large energy signature he seemed a bit aloof. "Tell me your's and maybe I'll tell you mine." She was never quick to give away any information about herself. At least in her powered form. Even if he was technically considered an ally of the Dark Mirror Court, if he wanted her name it would be best to give his first. Large energy signature or not.

"I was hardly spying, observing would be more like it." He stated while tilting his head, almost cradling his head with his hand. "Gorgeous...hardly." He stated blunt and calm. "I don't find you attractive in the least, I assure you. But don't fret, it's not your appearance. I'm sure some people would consider you attractive and gorgeous. Just not me." His other hand came up to make a dismissive waving gesture before it went back down and pushed him off the roof top.
It was a quick decent to the ground and when he landed, knees bent slightly, he straightened to his...small stature. The hand which had been cradling his cheek still did just that, his right arm now hung at his side limp for the moment.
"Benitoite, General Benitoite, and you?" He asked as he stood there calmly, waiting but not pushing for an answer.

Toutatis rolled her eyes heavily. In all honesty, she didn't really care his opinion one way or not. Deep down inside it might have been a blow to her ego, but it did not show on the surface. At least not tonight. She was in a pretty decent mood and his remarks meant nothing. She didn't flinch or even jump back as he landed. Merely sizing him up. And he indeed was fairly short. Not that she was the tallest either, but she probably had a couple inches on him. Of course, the heels of her boots helped. The way he held himself was weird. Perhaps a bit off putting. "Sailor Toutatis of the Dark Mirror Court."

Finally he let his left hand drop and stood watching her for a moment. "A pleasure." An offered hand. Thankfully height wasn't something which bothered him, considering most of the people he knew were taller than himself. If it bothered him he'd really have issues with almost everyone; might even get a complex.
"Have you just started your evening, or are you toward the end of it?" Though it was still fairly early some people he supposed got started as soon as dusk set in, so this could be the end of the evening for such individuals. She wasn't someone he knew though, not that he was a member of her faction and so should know every member, but being close to two high ranked members and holding training sessions he figured if he didn't know her she was likely new. He'd ask her that soon enough, since he already had a good feeling she was new.

Hesitant at first to take his hand, but if he had wanted to hurt or deceive her he probably wouldn't want to go through any of the pleasantries of learning her name or offering a hand. Reaching her own hand out, she didn't grasp his palm. Instead opting to grasp his wrist before letting it go. "Like wise.""I just started actually." Toutatis generally started a bit early, but rarely did she stay out super late either. She did have school in the morning after all. And the teachers were never easy on anyone who was late.

Interesting, hand shakes usually were just hand shakes not a wrist grasp. But he returned the gesture and nodded his head to her. "I see, would you like company this evening?" He asked. He didn't know a thing about her but he also knew she was a low ranked member of the Dark Mirror court and as such he wished to assure she was safe, who knows what enemies were out tonight wandering the streets and rood tops.
With his own schedule, and need to fulfill duties, he spent more time awake and busy than asleep, he was sure of this. From school, which he was on time for somehow, to work then to home for homework, dinner and other things he than went out to handle these duties. He didn't go out every night but he had no set schedule for when he did go out powered up. If he went every night he'd have had a breakdown by now, again. "I would, if it does not bother you, like to get to know you as our sides are allies."

Toutatis was always wary of those who were stronger than her. Especially in such a magnitude as Benitoite. While the wrist grabbing was probably unnecessary, it was a form of minor trust. Saying 'I trust you enough to not outright stab me in the back but I wouldn't be surprised if you did'. Trust was earned, not to be given freely. Ally or not. Now if he had been a Lieutenant then things would perhaps be different. At least he'd be at the same power level as her. She would be less edgy. When he asked about her wanting company and him wanting to get to know her cause their sides were allies, she quirked an eyebrow. Toutatis supposed that was a reasonable enough of a request. "If you want to accompany me that's fine." She shrugged lightly, her sheer fluttering a bit. "I suppose I should get to know more of the Negas anyhow."

"Indeed, it is a good idea. There is no telling when we will be in battle together and must know and trust each other." Like that ambush not too long ago. It was good to know where others stood ability wise and how calm they could be in a situation. There was no way to recreate a big battle like that but seeing small fights gave some indication, not that he was hoping he and Toutatis had a run in with an enemy tonight.
"I would like to accompany you this evening." A small nod of his head and he motioned for her to lead the way. "Have you had any run in's with senshi of the white moon or the knights that roam the city?" Best to know if she'd had any action involving the enemy yet, see if she had and what had happened. If not it really was only a matter of time, it was inevitable really.

"Knowledge is dangerous. And trust, complete trust, is earned. Not given." It was a cold hard truth honestly. Toutatis had learned that a few times in her civilian life. She gave everyone a certain level of trust to start with, but it was up to them to gain more in her eyes. She preferred to lead the way, even if he had not motioned for her to do so she would have anyway. Toutatis was leader, rarely a follower. Even if she was a low end grunt, the only one she might follow if need be was Leto. But that was only because Leto was her superior in the Court and could kick her a** power wise for the time being. Toutatis didn't plan on staying on the bottom of the totem pole for long. "Not yet, no. I've heard much about them but have yet to actually meet one. I think I saw one from a distance one night but they scurried away before I could get a good look at them." Lacing her fingers behind her back, she walked heel to toe at a casual pace farther through the dark alleyways. "Though I think I would prefer to avoid the ones with the frilly white wings for now."

The blond was no follower either but he also knew enough to let the new members lead the way, let them decide where they were comfortable going. He wanted to back seat it and watch, see where they went and what they'd do. He was there to keep them safe and to get to know them, learn who these new members were. So while this one was lower in rank, by quite a bit, he was letting her decide on the evenings plan.
"Yes, a good idea. I had a run in, a lucky one, a week into my service to the Negaverse. I can only say that I was lucky it was not a senshi who wished to fight me, it would have ended terribly for me." Being that he had no experience, a horribly small and inefficient weapon, and he'd been sick at the time. Yes, he'd gotten off lucky that night and since then he'd gotten away by sheer luck. Chasing down a royals energy signature was not smart but he'd never felt a signature like it before so he'd sought it out, they hadn't been up for fighting just talking.
"Also, the highest rank of the knights would be good to keep away from. Though I've only met one at that high a rank." So he didn't think there were many, though he could of course be wrong. Walking behind her his heels clicked lightly as he walked slowly, his steps measured and light.

She laughed lightly. It was interesting to see his concern with him warning her about the knights, but of course she knew about them. Toutatis may have been a little wet behind the ears but she had enough knowledge and sense to avoid the Knights as well. Although it was probably a bit hard to distinguish a Knight from a Page just by looks. From what she knew they all had fancy outfits anyway. So unless you were paying attention to their power levels it was a little hard to distinguish as first probably. "It seems to me that what most of the Order Senshi and Knights want to do is just talk. Which I find strange I guess. I mean, if they are so high and mighty in their beliefs and back what they are trying to do so strongly, why don't they take affirmative action? Why do they just stand around with their thumbs up their asses?" Crossing her arms over her chest now as she walked, Toutatis closed her eyes momentarily. "You would think they'd track down you Negaverse agents, the Corrupt Senshi, us DMC and fight us instead of trying to talk our ears off. At least that is what I would do if I were an Order Senshi. Thank god I'm not though. I don't think I could live in such ignorance."
