Alexandre had waited till after school to contact his new Lieutenant and leave him a message. They needed to meet tonight, the other had much to learn, and Alexandre was already going to be out tonight patrolling so it was a good time to get his new Lieutenant out and used to powering up and roof top hopping among other things. The other needed to learn and he wanted him to get started as soon as possible.
He knew he needed to get some training into him, see how well he could fight, but he also needed to teach the other about this war. He wouldn't leave a Lieutenant unaware of things and without answers, it could leave them vulnerable and able to be swayed to the other side. It was in part what he looked for in senshi when he looked for those he wanted to try and sway. Those who were clueless and adrift with nothing helping or guiding them.
The same neighborhood he'd found the Lieutenant in was where he was tonight. Standing at the backdoor to a strip club, figuring he was safe here, and really not caring if some low lifes approached him. As regally dressed as he was he could and would certainly be able to take care of himself. There was no fear in him as he casually leaned against a brick wall, arms loosely crossed over his chest as he waited. He could hear the pounding music from the club even out here. The music certainly wasn't his thing though it made him want to move - to do something.

Eithan would never admit to it, but after their last encounter he'd spent two days sleeping it off. Pain was only a four letter word but it was, as he'd been warned, more than he anticipated and his body took more of a beating than his mind. Since then, he'd been more on the down low, dodging away from other people to try his new found abilities. Unfortunately there hadn't been much time where the young teen had managed to get anywhere with it.
That was why he was rather relieved when he finally got the message from Benitoite to meet again.
Eithan hurried his way along the same area that he'd run across him. It was a place who knew well enough and could navigate with ease. From far off he could hear the music blaring from one of the resident strip clubs. Eithan peered over the crowd but could not catch any glimpse outside the door slamming. Shrugging with a devlish smile he managed his way to the back, stopping short of the other, flashing his smile.
"Well hello again." He blinked, not sure what else to say.

"Evening Lieutenant. It's good to see you again. I hope you've recovered well from your corruption?" He asked, mild concern lacing his voice. He was sure that by now the other had to be better, hence the lack of full on concern. "I think tonight would be a good night to try you new abilities, roof top travel, and for you to ask some of the questions I'm sure you have." It would be a mixed night, he didn't want to focus on any one thing and overwhelm him.
"Some questions I may not have an answer for, or a proper one, but I will do the best I can or hopefully know where to send you for your answers." If he had to he could always send the Lieutenant toward Zinkenite, knowing that man had more information than anyone else he knew.
"So, shall we be off to start the evening." He would keep it a short night, or at least shorter than his usual nights.

"Oh just fine." Eithan said, poking his hands into his pockets. "Roof tops?" He asked, glancing up towards the roof of the strip club and back to the General. "It all sounds good to me, as long as I don't fall I guess." He glanced at him.
"Well I guess the biggest question I have is what exactly are we working towards, but that might be something I have to see rather than hear." He'd been thinking about it a lot, it burned in the back of his head. Also just what he would do on nightly escapades, but that was obviously going to be answered.
"Where do we start?"

"You shouldn't. and it'll take time to get used to." Going slow at first was a good idea, falling would really not be a good idea. "First allow me to handle the location issue and then I'll tell you what we are working towards." That said he took hold of his lieutenant and teleported them right to the strip clubs roof top. Letting him go he stepped back.
"The reason for this war is long in the past, not something taught in school. A Romeo and Juliet story gone bad. Earth's prince fell in love with the Moon's princess and it was this princesses mother who is the villain in this story. She ruled the moon but sought to rule the other, to make the people here subject to her, a second class. The people rose up to fight her, to keep their freedom. These people had no power, unlike us now." Motioning the to the both of them.
"They still reached the palace on Earth and got to the thrown room, hoping to get to the Prince." To do what he did not know, and so did not speak. "But inside was the Queen who attacked. T keep the story short these senshi are souls reincarnated from the past. They were those who fought on the side of the Moon's queen. They seek to bring her back, or some do, others simply believe we are wrong and they are right and wish to remove us." God it sounded lame to his own ears. But it had been more than enough to convince him into joining the Negaverse.
"They would take our freedoms from us, if the Queen ever returns. So we fight to remove the senshi and see to it that she never returns. That is why we fight," And still it sounded lame to him. God he hoped he didn't come off that way to the other, and he hoped the other believed his story. "When she attacked those people...she turned them into youma. You will go down there, with the help of a higher ranked officer, until you reach Captain. It is a safe place for us to go. For your first lesson though we will do roof top travel, since it's common place." As he came to be silent he watched the other, waited, and almost crossed his fingers even.

His entire body jolted at the move and he looked around curiously, nearly losing his footing but shaking his head and regaining his balance quickly. "Daaaang." Eithan murmured. That's pretty cool. The inner thought surfaced.
As Benitoite spoke Eithan found himself drawn into the words, tilting his head back and fourth nodding once or twice. Something inside of him stirred, a flicker of kinship. Furrowing his brows they came to a sharp point as he thought it over. "No freedom." The words were spoken softly and all that came to mind was his own life situation. Gripping his own arms his stance entirely seemed to shift as he continued to speak, a fire growing in his belly.
As soon as he was finished the young boy snorted and gave a frustrated look into the sky and then a focused one back to the General. "Hey you don't gotta tell me twice, that's real messed up." Surely it wasn't hitting him as hard as someone with greater grasp of the entire situation, but he was hooked by the idea of injustice as it had always been something he took into account - and it bothered him greatly.
The burning inside of his belly had moved into his eyes and he punched a curled hand into his other palm with a loud thwack sound. "I'm all in." He said with his voice dropping, a serious and focused tone coming into him...
...and then vanishing a moment later with his usual grin. "Well now that you told me all that I think I'm ready." His bright eyes glinted. "I want to learn everything I can, you just tell me what and where and you got me, alright?" He looked off the roof and to the next and nodded back at him.

While the other found teleporting cool Alexandre was over the newness of it, it had quickly faded actually, and it was just a normal routine thing for him. It wasn't something special but rather something you simple gained the ability to do at some point. It was still against science and such but it was completely possible and accepted by him.
"Indeed, and I assume by your response you agree that the senshi, and the knights, must be stopped." And killed even. Could this red haired Lieutenant kill? Could he become a killer if he couldn't do it now? He liked to think he could become on with time. It was likely he'd be put into a position where he'd have to kill one night; or risk being killed himself.
Laugh welled up inside him and escaped as a chuckle, one gloved hand up and covering his laughter in a most proper of manner, while slate eyes watched the other. "Of course. I shall make you a strong Lieutenant and an even stronger Captain when you are promoted. You will do well with the fire you have inside you - I'm sure of it." Lowering his hand as his laughter subsided he smiled at the other. "Just so you learn some limitations, before I have you jump from this roof to another, I want you to take a few jumps on this roof to. Don't jump in place but rather try and jump a few feet from where we stand. I want you to get a feel for how much strength to put into a jump to get what distance and height." He didn't want him jumping and not making the distance, by over estimating himself, or landing poorly.
"And remember, any questions you have ask - no question is stupid." Even if some might annoy him, or not be any of his business (if he decided to ask personal things).

He felt pumped and looked back down from their high area. "Yeah..." He said, snapping back to attention. "Well of course, can't have them around spreading that kind of... stuff." He held his tongue back from the curse for some unknown reason but shifted, looking back at the General with a raised brow. "Well good then." He knocked his fist into the other again.
He was busy eying the alleyway below them and turned his head. "So just kind of jump around to figure out how much I can do?" He questioned, nodding to answer his own question. "I can do that, yeah.... yeah." Taking a few steps back he glanced at the other and nodded, taking a start and leaping, nearly bowling him over but stopping just short of him with a wide grin. "Well I feel kind of silly but I think that was good, eh?"
Eithan could only wonder what anyone would think if they were watching this, though he shrugged it off. Taking a few more leaps he stopping in front of him again, crossing his arms over his body and making a smug sort of look. "Well alright, I thought of a question, how many of US are there, hm?"

"Yes. I'd rather you not jump to the next roof and accidentally overestimate the power you have and fall." He stated with a tilting of his head. "It would be best to get a quick feel for it before we take off across the roof tops. I don't suggested any slanted roof tops, odd and rare as they are, when it's raining or in the snow either. They both make landings dangerous - more then they need to be." Though slanted roof tops in the city were rare. They were normal and common in the areas outside the city where houses with large yards were normal.
"It was fine." Moving out of the others path. He didn't care to be knocked of byt the eager red haired Lieutenant. "Do you have an idea for the strength you have now?" He questioned. Had the other even powered up between now and his corruption? He doubted it but that was ok.
"I can't give an exact number. I've met a good many of us in this city. But the war, and our numbers, exist in other countries. In other countries the senshi and knights are no longer an issue. But we have members there - I've never met any such members however. I will, if it pleases you, introduce you to members who are local of course. It will give you a network of members to go to for help and to go out with on patrols." To keep him safe at night, and he could learn different things from the various members.
"Now, ready to jump to the next roof top?" He questioned before he took a run at the edge of this roof and lept into the air. Landing on the next roof top with ease.

"Sounds good." He nodded as he explained the tips. There was a lot to consider with jumping roofs aside from the obvious "if you fall you'll probably get hurt or die" thoughts which were somewhat dimmed in the inexperienced Lieutenants mind. Altaite shot a grin towards him. "I'm getting a good feel for it." He said, and as if to show it clenched both of his fists at the same time. There hadn't been a lot of time to practice but the fire that burned in his belly seemed aflame again.
"So we're the only ones left?" He questioned with a lifted eyebrow. "Well yeah I'd like to meet some." There was a sense of belonging which internally had been somewhat of an issue for him growing up, having others with like minds would probably but some of his doubts at ease too - though there was little doubt to be found in the first place.
Watching him jump and land with grace made him grin. "You sure have done this often, eh?" He said, rubbing his hands together. You got this, you got this... He said to himself a few times, staring at the rooftop. "Go." He muttered to himself and took a running start and a strong leap across. Altaite made it to the other roof but far less gracefully - as expected - to which he nearly lost his footing but managed to stop himself by moving into a lower position, slowly standing and dusting off his pants. "Kind of exhilarating, huh?"

"If your asking if we're the only ones fighting the senshi and nights still it seems like it. It seems like the other countries have already handled the issue and removed the problem completely." Something they had yet to do, but were working toward doing.
"Alright, I'll work to introduce you to some of our members. Not tonight but I will do so as soon as I can. There are also some senshi on our side, corrupted senshi or dark mirror senshi. They both side against the senshi and knights. SO you may run into them as well, while on your own." He said with a light smile. He had made a few friends amongst those of the dark mirror court.
"It is and I've had over a years worth of practice. You'll get better in time. It's an easy form of transportation - it keeps us from having to deal with the civilians." Some of whom thought they were the terrorists; and in same cases would seek to hurt them.

He didn't verbalize afterward but the thought of So what are WE doing wrong? came into his head but he shook it off, staring back down off of the roof and over to the next one as if analyzing it. For a first tumble he had done decently, but that was nothing to ease of the General and how he had managed.
Only hard work was going to get him there.
Grounding back to himself slowly he grinned. "Aight." He muttered. Senshi on their side? Altaite was getting hit with information upon information and it was a little overwhelming. There was that wonder though of who he worked with, were they people he already knew who started like he did? Maybe he did already know some - though it was doubtful he'd ever find out for certain.
"Civilians huh?" His lips pursed at the tone and figured that it meant they had been trouble in the past. "Guess you gotta watch your back from all sides?" It was a light question and he moved back, determined to show he had paid attention. Jumping back to the first roof he rolled again and went into a run, making it back next to the General with that familiar glint in his eye. He had a feeling he'd be doing this for several hours.
But in the end it was going to be worth it. Eithan knew that much.

One of the things he wished they would do, and thought was wrong not to do, was kill those cats. They were the ones to power up the senshi and awaken them. If you killed the cats, made sure no more cats turned up, that would help. Then it would keep new senshi from cropping up and leave you with a certain number of them to take out. But he didn't say this, he didn't feel the need to right now.
"That is the case. I've yet to have issues but given we are all labeled as terrorists, us and the other side, and we are hard to tell apart issues can arise. So I'd like to avoid such happening and so I avoid civilians as much as I can. It's only a good thing people aren't of the torch and pitch fork carrying sort any more." Or they could be in trouble like witches in movies, maybe in real life, and vampires in movies were. He didn't care to have civilians chasing him though or trying to fight or restrain him, not like they could mind you, it was not something he cared to deal with.
Watching the Lieutenant he nodded his head in approval. "Very good, come lets us go. I will be keeping you on the roof tops tonight for travel. When we find a nice area, and easy prey, we will go down and I will show you how to gather energy - it is an important thing to know. We each have a quota of energy we must gather so the sooner you learn the better." Tonight would be a lesson in jumping/traveling by roof top and energy gathering. A light lesson in his opinion. He'd get to starseeds and more later on - not tonight
"What else do you want to know? I will, as I said, answer whatever I am able to and to the best of my ability."
