Natron had returned to a neighborhood he'd visited once before, earlier in his time as Captain. It was where he'd met that infuriating, cowardly Senshi fo Walls, who had boxed him in. Ever since his family life had begun to fall apart, he'd became even angrier than usual - and he was here intending painful revenge on the fool that had crossed him. Had humiliated him and made him flee from the scene of battle.
He dropped from the rooftop to the ground, swinging his mace. Perhaps he should find a civilian, and let their screams lure out his prey.

Confident and free and feeling oh so wonderful! Yes, that accurately described how Avior was feeling on this particular evening, standing atop his own house. The cool thing about living so high up and away from the town was that there was so much to see! The view was amazing, and he could see for miles on this clear night.
He wasn't as shaking and scared as he used to be, no. And though he still didn't know if he was doing the right thing in 'patrolling', He did understand that his family was what he wanted to protect. Avior was here to do just that. To save HIS known world, not any world that belonged to anyone else.
As he continued his hawk eyed vigil upon his rooftop, he saw something strange.. Something out of place. Someone hopping off a roof just as he did, and it felt angry. That couldn't be good, no, not at all. So much for a peaceful night, he supposed, and with a sigh, he jumped down from the rooftop, heading towards the house where he saw the person.
To his unpleasant surprise, he found someone there, someone who just leaked out irritation. And someone he recognized. Their last meeting had been rather unpleasant, to be honest, but he wasn't the same Avior as before. He was going to put up a hell of a harder fight than before.
"Hey there. Seems like you're back again, huh? Would you like to talk this out as civilized folk, or are you just going to attack me for no reason again? Seriously though, I've met a nega who said you weren't all so bad, but I wonder.. What drives you to needless violence?"
Natron grinned viciously when Avior dropped down in front of him. "Ah, just the man I was looking for." He said. "And look, now we're on equal footing." That bothered him. He'd fled when the kid was a basic Senshi - now that he was a Super, Natron was actually seriously worried. He'd have to make this as quick as possible - smash the kid's smug face in and get out.
That sounded like a plan.
"Does it really count as no reason, though?" He asked, tilting his head to the side. "After all, you boxed me up, and there's not a lot that's more embarrassing than reporting to my superior officer that I had to flee." He said. "And this violence? It's not needless, either. You Senshi are a blight on this planet and every one of you needs to be corrupted or killed."

"Huh, I suppose we are. I guess that means I could make you run away just as quickly as before." Oddly enough, he didn't feel frightened by this man. Not anymore, anyway. He supposed it could be from his increased power. Or from the new light he had shed on him about the negaverse in general.
"You know, I kinda agree with you on that, in a sense. The whole 'blight on this planet, thing. Maybe before I didn't understand completely, and I probably still don't, but I talked with one of the members of your organization who had the PATIENCE to hear me out, and he basically said that yeah, us senshi don't belong here and we don't have a home to return to, because it was destroyed by something or another." Avior took a moment to mourn the planet that was his. He had not yet visited, but knowing that it was already broken down before he even got to see it was painful enough.
"But that's not what I meant. I meant that we are so unorganized, it's kinda sickening. You spoke of a superior officer, right? We don't even have that. I'm sure that's knowledge that the Negaverse already knows. Most 'work on their own' or what not. Same for me, yet I've been thinking, maybe I should switch sides then. I want that organization and purpose. Not to the Negaverse, no, I've met far too many blood-thirsty ones like you, who want to attack without even considering exactly how we feel. I doubt you honestly care though, so, if you're going to attack, I'm ready. You'll be knocked off your feet faster than you can swing your little ball on a string."

XD Sorry if his ranting's too long! If you think that Natron wouldn't actually stop to listen to the boy, let me know!
Natron tilted his head to the side. He was an Information officer - and so sometimes, he did his job, and he just listened. Gathered information. He let the Senshi talk, and he considrred.
This was fascinating. A slight smile played across his face, and he actually desummoned his weapon for a moment. Sometimes he would rather talk, and for now, that was what he wanted to do.
"Your planets were destroyed because of a war between Earth and the Moon." Natron replied. "At least, so I believe, based on what I've learned. See, a thousand years ago, the Princess of the Moon started eyeing the Prince of Earth. She took him to her Moon palace, and she tried to take over this planet. But the people of Earth fought back. And they won." He said. "Hm, and I imagine that if you want to join with Chaos, but the Negaverse is out...your choice is the Dark Mirror? My ex is one of them. Good people." Chaos was Chaos, and he liked the Court, strained alliance officially or not.
"But you want a fight, yes?" He resummoned his weapon. "Come and get me, kiddo."

"You'd be surprised at what goes on with each world that's destroyed. My planet.. I assure you, it was not the white moon that ruined my home. No. What would the white moon or chaos want with something so very far away? It's over 600 Light years away, it feels impossible that the moon had anything to do with my home. I have a feeling that it was something else that brought my planet's end." Just a gut feeling, sure, but more and more recently, glimpses of the past had been flashing in the corners of his eyes.. Soon enough he would find out exactly what happened..
But not right now.
"I've met a Dark Mirror Senshi before. Really kind people.. I do wish to talk to them more, but first. Let's get this over with." Avior wasn't so foolish to simply walk in with nothing but his bare hands, and he had enough fighting experience now, both training, youma fighting, and his own capoeira lessons to know how to strike first.
He charged at the boy, grinning, and sliding down low in the grass, as if to do a leg sweep. Swinging a ball and chain from the ground seemed far harder than doing it standing up!
Natron just grinned and braced himself. The leg sweep did take him off his feet, but he'd bene practicing falls, of all things - so he avoided catching himself with his hands until he was inches from the ground, and kept his head tucked in, rolling back onto his feet. "Not bad, kid, that would've been great against someone who hasn't been doing this for a year!"
A year of hell and beatings and triumphs and failures. And he was going to show this kid what that meant. He spun his mace and swung it down. Fighting, to him, was fun - an adrenaline rush. Who would've thought that the skinny, nerdy kid he'd been would become the man he was now?

Surprised that the man had gotten back up so quickly, Avior stumbled backwards a few feet, grinning. Back when they last met, he would have been scared, pleading for the other to simply leave him be, but not now! He knew his advantage came from being closer to walls, trees, anything vertical. For most people, their back against a wall would be a problem, but not this one!
The mace came down on him, and though he managed to get out of the way for the most part, his foot did get caught by it, and he bit his lip in pain, leaning backwards and using his hands to spring him further away from the man. When he landed, he fell to one knee, trying to wiggle his toes around in boot to make sure it wasn't broken.
"You say that, and I've only been doing this for a few months, but I'm JUST as powerful as you, huh? Lucky shot for you, but I'm not going to let that happen again." He stood up once more, studying for the best way to attack him. It was the whole thing about teleportation that had him unsure of what to do next.
"Come on, charge at me, pop behind me, beside me. I'm not stupid enough to charge in first!"
Natron grinned, and then suddenly he started laughing. "Just as powerful as me? Is that really what you think? Oh, god, you are such a dumb, naiive little kid. I hope for your sake you grow up quick," he said. And then he teleported directly in front of Avior, and with the unnatural speed granted to him by Chaos, snapped his hand out and sunk it into the Senshi's chest, squeezing his starseed.
"There is an incredible gulf in power between us, because I could kill you right now." He said, and he grinned viciously. "I don't know how much you know, so you'll forgive me if I'm repeating information...but right here, in your chest, is something called a starseed. It's your life force. Your soul, if you will. And I, and every Negaverse officer and Senshi, can reach right in and pull it out. And when we do, you die." He chuckled darkly.
"I have quite the collection. Maybe I'll add one more tonight." He didn't intend to, of course, he just intended to put the fear of Chaos into the brat. Hopefully, Avior would remember in the future, and do a lot less taunting of people who could kill him.

In a single second, everything in the world seemed to freeze. He was drowning, he could feel the liquid filling up in his longs, something so unnatural and foreign invading his chest. There was no movement from him, and he became like stone against the man before him. What was even happening anymore?
He couldn't hear the man speak, instead, his eyes were cast down, staring at what seemed to be something sticking straight into his chest. There was no blood, there was no hole there, yet why did it hurt so badly. Instinct told him not to move away. If the hand inside of him really, truly had what he though it did, moving, even just to pull away from them man, could result in his very demise.
And the words that Natron spoke earlier finally hit him. He was weak, in that sense. The biggest difference between them.. One had no problem killing. And that was not him. His mouth opened and closed, and opened once more, gaping like a fish, trying to form words that would just not come out, and there was nothing he could do. Nothing but pray that the man would let him go, would spare him on this night of all nights.
Natron released Avior's starseed and withdrew his hand, still grinning. "Still think we're on even terms?" He asked. He knew the answer. They could never be equals, not as long as this child thought that a few fancy magic tricks would save him from people who could literally end his life with a gesture.
He took a step back and crosed his arms, desummoning his weapon. "I don't need my mace to break you, little Senshi. I only need a little luck, and a little speed. Do you know how many of you I've left lying on the ground? And my civilian toll...well." His grin became, if possible, even more sickening.
Yes, he was proud of the number of lives he'd ended. He had a trail of corpses leading back to the day he'd had to execute a Senshi to protect Toutatis's identity - or maybe, more to the point, to the day that Painite had showed him the healing power of starseeds. "And the best part is, if I eat them, they heal me. I always have a stock on hand."

His gloved hand immediately came up, clutching at where the other's own appendage had invaded him. A small breath of relief was released when he found there was no hole there, and that there was no permanent damage done to him. For a few more moments, Avior could not move, watching the sick, vile man go on about his deeds.
Natron's ranting allowed the boy to catch his breath, and in an instant, he was upon the other, grabbing his shoulder and holding him tight as his knee came up as hard as he could manage, where no one should ever aim for. He let the boy fall to the ground, stepping away from him, just incase he did manage to recover quickly from his little, minor attack.
"In the end, you're just as human as I am! And you have the same weaknesses as I do."
Natron made a strangled gasping noise and did indeed go down to his knees, catching himself on open palms. He shifted to reach into the inner pocket of his jacket and pulled out something that still had a small glow to it - a starseed, one stolen from a civilian who-knew-when.
He popped it into his mouth and slowly, very slowly, stood up.
"You little ******** s**t." He growled, the most dangerous he had sounded since this battle had begun. And then he charged at Avior - no finesse, nothing, just a partial turn to lead with his shoulder in an effort to body-slam the Senshi.

At first, Avior thought he had an opportunity to go in, to attack him again, to put him down for the night, but.. That glowing thing in his hands.. That seed, to his horror, was eaten without a second thought. Oddly enough, he wasn't entirely disturbed by it, not with the dreams he had of recent, but to be able to eat such a thing. It was cannibalism; it had been just as much of a person as the man was himself! Then, the man charged, forcing Avior to retreat, dashing backwards, putting enough distance between himself and the attack, before punched the ground below his feet, calling out his attack.
"BUILD THAT CITY!" With his wall coming out from under his feet, he was launched into the air, higher than he could ever jump on his own. Was he running.. Yeah, he was, straight over the next couple of rooftops over, landing on it with a loud THUD on his back. He was stunned, confused.. But maybe he was safe for the moment.. Than man had sounded so very angry.. He didn't want to be there anymore, not if the man REALLY wanted to kill him this time.
Sailor Scout Attack: Build that Wall! Avior calls out his attack while punching the ground before him and from there, a magical, invisible wall springs up before him, enchanted to be impossible to jump over. It is only 10 feet wide, blocking him from any frontal assault. The wall is only up for 10 seconds, from which Avior would have to hit the ground again to build it up.. For an equal level character, it could be nearly impenetrable, and the stronger the enemy, the quicker the wall comes down. A 4th level character could instantly smash the wall to bits, a 3rd level character in a few hits, and a 2nd after a good bashing, though it would probably just be easier to walk around the wall. This can be used three times a battle, though there is a 10 second cool down between each summoned wall.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Build that City! The wall from his first attack has increased in size to 15 feet wide that lasts for 20 seconds. It forms up thicker as well, and those who are 2nd level or lower cannot break through it. With a 3rd level character, they would have a hard time breaking through it, though a 4th will have moderate difficulty breaking through the wall. One can still simply walk around it.

I keep thinking about how stupid his attack sounds. XD
Natron skidded to a stop before crashing into where Avior had been. Running into a wall would've just been the capper on his evening. At least the starseed he'd consumed had repaired whatever damage the dumb brat had done to him - or so he hoped, since he was no longer in pain.
"I'll find you again," he promised, his voice low. It was a promise to himself, more than to Avior - it wasn't worth it to chase him down tonight, but one day he'd make that little s**t of a Senshi regret crossing him.
