The night found Damocles on patrol, and surprisingly he was alone. His usual partner, Tantalus, was off doing something else. Something about having to be forced to spend time with his parents. That was fine, Damocles could handle himself. And while he was still apprehensive about being by himself, he couldn't let the shade incident rule what he did. And he knew that there would be times, much like tonight, where he or Tantalus would have to patrol by themselves. Besides, he had promised Tantalus six ways from Sunday that he would take the up most care. So he was walking the streets, keeping to himself and staying out of sight of any civilian's that happened to show up.

Penthesilea didn't exactly do stealth. The clink of metal for. Her skirt and her heels broadcasted her approach long before she came - and what did she care? Sneak attacks were all well and good, but she was War, not Subterfuge. And so she knew her outfit alerted the blond Senshi in front of her well before she spoke, as she dropped from a rooftop down behind him.
"Well, well, now what are you, boy?" She asked. "You don't feel like the Negaverse, but you do feel like Chaos..."

He turned, hearing the metal clink behind him and his eyes fell on the ginger. "Not the Negaverse, no. I am part of the Dark Mirror Court." He replied. Damocles, on the other hand, knew exactly what this girl was. Order. A white mooner. "My name is Damocles. ...And you are?"

Penthesilea cocked her head to the side, taking a few steps toward him and surveying him as a lion might survey a gazelle. "Dark Mirror Court, huh?" She said. "Ain't never heard of y'all, but you do seem to be on the side of Chaos, which by my reckoning makes us enemies," she said, and she sounded a little too eager. "Sailor Penthesilea."

"If you want to look at it that way, then I suppose that yes, we are indeed enemies. Though I have done nothing to you to earn that label aside from being on a different 'team' " He eyed the girl closely. She looked like she was about ready to jump him. "...Well since we're enemies.. Perhaps I can interest you in a little friendly sparing match? Judging by your outfit, and your scar, I take it you like to shoot first and ask later?"

Penthesilea laughed. "That's plenty enough, boy, and if you think otherwise then you're gonna be in for a world of trouble," she said, and then, as if to prove his second statement true, she slipped in to attack, opening with a sweep at his legs designed to take him off his feet.

His brow twitched. Boy? This girl was probably somewhere around his age and she was talking like he was years younger. The blonde grabbed her leg before twisting and pushing down on her upper leg. "So just because I wear a different color makes me a bad guy? You don't know the first thing about me or who I am, and yet you want to label me as something that could be entirely false."

"I don't got the time to d**k around with your shades of grey," Penthesilea replied, going with his push and taking a controlled fall. She used being on the ground as an opportunity to aim a metal heel directly at his shins - guards or not, that would hurt, and nothing was below her. "This is a war, an' if you're too p***y to fight it, you'd best not come out."

"...Okay I might be a lot of things but I am not some raunchy book." Damocles growled. He hissed when the clang of metal rang out. So it might not have hurt as much, but there'd be atleast some bruising there later. "Vulgar little s**t aren't you? Guess you're not as much of a lady as I thought." The blond jumped back putting distance between them. "All's fair in love and war." He replied flatly.

Penthesilea snorted. "If you were stupid enough to think I was a lady in the first place..." she said, vaulting up off the ground and coming at him again, this time leading with her elbow for a full body slam. She was much smaller than him, but she had the advantage, she suspected, of having absolutely no honor. "Don't tell me you're Love," she laughed, "or this'll be too damn ironic, because unluckily for you, I'm War."

"Well excuse me for being courteous. Next time I'll treat you like some punk a** child." He grunted as she slammed into him. "I suppose you could look at it like that. All depends on what your definition of devotion is." Bringing his arms up and making a fist he slammed them into her back while at the same time trying to bring his knee up into her stomach.

Penthesilea grinned and then she went down, but she grabbed a fistful of his fuku before she did. Yes, she was hurting, but she wasn't hurting enough to stop laughing, though it was a little wheezy. "Devotion? You're the Senshi of Devotion? That's cute, I'll bet you're a great boyfriend," she said, twisting to shove her fist into his gut.

"Better then some war crazed idiot. At least-" He choked on his breathe when she punched him in the stomach. "At least I won't get myself killed and die on the people I care about just because of a pointless fight." He grabbed the girls wrist, the one that had his fuku, and twisted.

Penthesilea laughed. She laughed loud and hard, and then she shook her head. "We ain't all that different, boyo. Ain't Devoation all about bein' willing to lay down your life for your people?" She asked, even as she wrenched forward, trying to use his size against him. "I just don't need no damn cause."

"Again, it depends on what your definition of it is. War destroys people and places." Damocles staggered backwards and threw her to the side. "Then your war is a meaningless and pointless one. If it can even be called a war at all." Wars started because of causes. "Maybe you're just having a tantrum." The blonde sneered. "You are acting like a child after all." He aim a kick for the girl's head.
"If you have no cause, then I feel sorry for you. You have nothing and no one to fight for."
