The negaverse, since their little funhouse play, had been awfully quiet in the nights. Castor was worried they were planning something more intricate.
With whatever information they gathered from the order units, which sounded cold but how else could Methone describe them? She didn't know any of them. How many of them had given the Negaverse just what they wanted, after a week of torture?
She would've given them everything. She was too new and too inexperienced. Something she knew Ash and Castor were worried about.
Her foot placed on the edge of the building top, as she jumped to the next one. An aura was close, and like Merlinite, was rich with the aura of someone stronger then her.
Mixed with something else.
She supposed the smart (and Lazy) option was to just let it pass but ever since that night, she had wanted to know. Just what was Chaos after now?

In the darkness of the alley, Cinnabar lifted her head as though scenting something on the wind, her eyes widening to take in the activity outside of this little bit of quiet. The man she held by the throat struggled weakly, drawing her attention back, and the half-youma finished draining him to the stillness of unconsciousness. When he moved no more, she let go and he crumpled at her feet as her attention shifted back to the order signature she had sensed a moment ago. The man was trash... nothing. He was worth less than the energy orb that now glowed in her hand and was tucked securely down the front of her corset.
Hello, pretty... Come to play? Her lips curled in a fanged smile as she took a few steps and jumped, aiming for the rooftops. Red eyes scanned the area as she searched for the source, feeling it coming towards her even as she moved forward. Well well well. It looked like whomever it was was feeling bold tonight, bold enough to take her on. It felt weaker than her... and that mistake would cost them dearly if she had anything to say about it.
Learn your place, senshi. Small fry like you are hardly worth my time now, save that if you're not put down now, you'll come back stronger later. But I'll teach you fear of me and my kind, no doubt about that. Maybe the Negaverse will add one to its ranks tonight... A new senshi would be a lovely gift to my General-Queen.
Methone followed the trail of aura, and moved to the alley that was thick with it.
She was met with a most peculiar and even sort of scary sight. Some kind of monster woman over a man's body. She didn't see his chest moving and assumed that she was too late. A small prayer was sent for the man before she slid into the dim light.
"Hello." She gave a weak half hearted smile.
"You are quite the unusual looking woman aren't you?" She paused, taking in the full of Cinnabar. "No less beautiful, but ten times more deadly."

Stepping through the dark as though swimming in the shadows, Cinnabar paced closer to the senshi that was bold enough to not only come find her... but announce herself with a greeting, even.
"Hello, Starshine." She purred, the sound quite literal as something distinctly feline rolled up from her chest. Her thumbs hooked in her belt as silver heels thumped on the concrete and she gave the senshi girl a long once-over with her eyes. Interest sparked and she grinned, slow and sexy.
"You have a discerning eye, lovely, and they give you folks some wonderful costumes, don't they?" Cinnabar teased as she moved in closer, pushing to see how close she would let her get. "More skin even than I'm showing... you must be cold, out here at night in the middle of winter. Do you have anyone out here with you tonight to keep you from taking a chill?"
It was unlikely... she didn't feel any signatures nearby enough to be partner to this girl. Another bit of luck for her, or stupidity on the senshi's part.
"Starshine? Flatterer." Methone sighed happily, even if her guard was up. "If only I could live to the name." There was that very unusual draw to the woman almost easily but it was honed with some sort of dangerous edge and fear of life. Methone could say she was all about flirtations, but she also knew that playing with a snake could eventually get you bit.
And she had no doubt this woman would bite hard.
"Oh this?" She played with the bared tan skin that was peeking through and laughed again. "I didn't realize the costume would come with so little, but you know, I'm used to wearing that much already..." She slid her arms together, allowing the closeness of Cinnabar, regardless of knowing how dangerous it was.
"The prince is out and about tonight, and doesn't let me wander far from his side." Methone lied easily, keeping the smooth smile, "I'm not sure if you know him? I've heard he's big in the senshi world, but I am unfamiler with who is big in the negaverse world. Uh, Prince Castor?" She bent her knee in what looked like a resting position, but also one that could instantly come up if Cinnabar jumped her.
"You're the first I've seen....decorated as you are? Is that a thing in the negaverse darling?"

Her lips relaxed as her eyes followed brown hands, watching fingers slide over skin. Her pupils dilated and her grin suddenly pulled wider, her motions becoming smoother, emphasizing her assets more.
"A prince?" She echoed, feigning disappointment. "Shame. I don't feel him, though, so he's let you wander farther than he should have, Pretty One. Castor... the name sounds familiar. Is that the big fish who's been killing the little minnows, hmm? Not terribly sporting, laying waste to those who are weaker than you are, rather than taking on people your size."
Reaching out slowly, her hips cocked, Cinnabar brushed the backs of her fingers up along the outside of the senshi's abs, as though she wasn't aware she did it. Just gently felt the skin under hers. Her teeth nibbled her lower lip, dragging the red flesh between the white enamel.
"I know of less than a handful of officers like me." She said, her head tilting playfully to the side. "Each of us is unique though, so you could call me special. I've merged with a youma, Lovely. It shares my body, hides in the back of my mind... its made me stronger than the average officer, and faster. Gave me some pretty little additions. It doesn't happen very often."
"Killing?" Methone was staring at said assets a little more closely, as teal eyes turned to face Cinnabar's. God she was a gorgeously dangerous creature wasn't she. Methone seriously having a hard time wrapping her head around it.
"He's around somewhere, powered down probably and watching the going ons with his brother." Methone hesitated, "I didn't realize him and Pollux had been so busy. I'm not fond of killing." She added, "But this is a war."
She held her breath as she was touched and tried not to purr like a cat, if anything, Methone was very fond of being touched, and touching in return. Physical contact was, sadly, the way to her heart.
"It sounds frightening and fun. How does it feel have the serpent in your garden of eden darling?" She reached over hesitantly, her hand brushing over Cinnabar's arm. "Does it hurt?"

A laugh broke free as Cinnabar shifted her weight, her head tilted to the side. The reach of a hand made her tense, but only in awareness and enjoyment of playing with this pretty little senshi girl. It was... almost too easy. The glow bug had been more wary of her, though that hadn't helped her all that much.
"It hurt when it happened... It doesn't any more." She said. Reaching out, she grasped the wrist of the hand that had touched her and tugged the senshi closer. She turned her head to the side, shaking her hair out of the way, and guided her fingers to the rich, red scales that ran down the back of her neck. "I'm... hungry pretty much always, and I can feel him watching things through my eyes, reading my thoughts. Sometimes he makes his desires known, but for the most part I can keep him on a tight leash. Its a juggling act every day, a struggle. My name is Cinnabar, Sweetness. What's yours?"
Despite what the girl said about this Castor and his brother being around... she rather doubted either of them was. They would have made themselves known by now, surely.
"I see, I can assume it hurts because of the added features but..." Her hands ran down the scaly skin anyways. She was really close to the...half youma woman now, and wondered if she was really pushing her luck. The answer was yes.
"Methone. Senshi of the Aurora Borealis. Northern lights." She breathed out, the sudden nervousness rising again, so she fell into her lazy smirk. "Hungry? For energy I presume, It must be invasive, strong. You are really strong." Methone's eyes dropped to the red lips and she knew then.
She was WAY pressing her bounds there, she attempted to tug away.
"I should get back..."

She could feel the slide of fingers over the scales, but only just... it was a little disappointing. Scales just didn't have the sensitivity of skin.
"Methone. That's a lovely name and a lovely sphere." Cinnabar said as her smile hardened. Something had changed between them and in that moment, Baal stirred to life, taking an interest. Was that fear the girl was putting off? It called to predatory instincts and the partial-youma kept her hold on the wrist, resisting the tug away.
"I'm hungry for many things. Food, primarily. I still eat like a normal person." She chuckled, giving a firm tug in return before she snaked her free arm around Methone's waist, a thick hand at her lower back. "Leaving so soon, Pretty? There is someone I want you to meet, though. Her name is Laurelite. You'd like her and I know she'd have a keen interest in you. See, you're on the wrong side, but its not your fault for awakening there. Just let me introduce you to my General-Queen and we can fix that. The Negaverse would gladly welcome someone like you... I know I would. I could show you the ropes, get you settled in. If you were interested in finding out more about youma or merged officers, or even getting to know me better maybe, you would be welcome to."
She gave her a playful look, her grip firm. "What do you say? Its better than the alternative."
"The compliments always get me." Methone fluttered her eyes, especially as she was brought closer to Cinnabar's body. There was immediate fear, the kind that comes when you expect the worse to happen in a moment. There was a small thrill of excitement, and a little bit of lust because Methone loved a body pressed against hers, and Cinnabar's was well....dangerous. New. Dangerously new.
"Oh? Well you learn something new every day don't you? I know the youma's like..." Methone placed her hands on Cinnabar's shoulders, "Yes I suppose I should leave shouldn't I? I've made enough bad descisions in the past half hour, I don't want to keep building the list up you see." Without Castor or Pollux really here, Methone was practically defenseless against this woman.
"Give me some time to think about it darling won't you? I can't be rushing headfirst into the first date without thinking of all my options." Methone's hand casually rose to her tiara as if she was adjusting it. Really, if she could activate her magic, she could blind Cinnabar and get the ******** out of there.
"You wouldn't want to rush me into anything now would you?" Methone tapped her jewel, prepared to call forth her magic.

"I'm sorry, Sweetness, but its now or never." Cinnabar said. She knew a brush off when she heard one, and it really wasn't surprising... Order girls never seemed willing to take the easy route when it was offered, stubbornly clinging to their faction. The day one actually did would probably be a historic event.
Maybe next time she wouldn't bother... just grab and teleport, deal with the fall out after the fact.
As the senshi's hand moved, Cinnabar shifted, feeling a new tension in the body she had her arm wrapped around. Releasing her, she made a grab for the wrist instead and with a yank, pulled the smaller woman off balance. A firm twist and she had the arm behind her back with a well-practiced motion and Cinnabar's forearm pressed to the slender throat, putting enough pressure on it to warn against further resistance.
"Just relax, Pretty. It'll be quick and it only hurts for a moment. Its either that or you die right here and it would be a shame to waste your bright potential. I can be easy going and friendly, but not on this. You understand... I can't let you go now."
The Captain focused on her room in the citadel, her mind flickering to where her crystal was stashed. Once there, it would be easy to hold the senshi until Laurelite arrived. The gift would be a small step towards repaying the woman for her own rescue.
If there hadn't been any power radiating off of Castor before, there certainly was now. The uptick in chaotic energy and distinct non-human energy at that sent the senshi on the defensive. He had never forgotten Tranz. He never would forget her power, and the pure danger she posed to any senshi. So when another signature took on that edge of youma and human? Castor no longer was blindly rushing in. He was taking his time, powering down to watch his movements, to avoid being sensed as he neared the last location of the energy- and where he'd last left Methone.
Seeing her at the mercy of a youma infused agent however?
Castor knew the outcome of such a confrontation. He'd seen such before, and he would have been a fool to let it play out again in front of him. You gave it time and it would end faster than expected, in ways you never wanted it to. You had to act while reacting, measured risked- or recklessly dive into the unknown. His energy flaring up as he henshined, the senshi of hail ran right at the agent, hand stretched out to grab the creature by the head to toss her off of Methone.
He didn't, wouldn't hold back, letting himself become the target to give the senshi a route to flee, even if it sent him into the line of fire. "Methone run!" Agents were one thing. Youma were another.
A look of hate and loathing, there was nothing handsome in Castor's expression. "Ho voluto strappare uno della tua specie a parte. Indovinate questo sarà il mio caso." The italian came rushed and laced with malice. He wanted to kill. He would put this one out of it's misery.

It was easy to start panicking, as her arm was twisted and moved to a point where she could neither produce magic, nor could she defend herself. Cinnabar was unfortunately for the Northern lights senshi, too strong.
"That's what they all say!" Methone chided, "But why not die by a pretty hand then." She struggled against the hold when the overwelming power of the eternal ....no the prince of hail arrived. Her grip was suddenly free, and she looked in shock as Castor threw Cinnabar at the wall.
His command to run had her jumping up to the ceilings, gripping to the ledge and scrambling at the top. She had never seen Castor furious, but the aura he was putting out? the look on his face...
"Castor?" She called out, hoping to break that spell. It would be better if all parties involved just went on their way right?
She felt the signature with only moments to spare, jerking the senshi in her arms around as whomever it was descended on them.
Faster than she could follow, fingers like steel had closed on her and pulled her away, flinging her bodily to the side. Cinnabar twisted like the cat she had merged with and rolled, coming up in a crouch on hands and feet. Her face twisted in an ugly snarl as she snapped her gaze to her attacker, black claws digging into the concrete.
White hair, white fuku with wings... This must be the Castor she had been talking about. Damn it... She really hadn't been lying about her back up. Calculated mistake on Cinnabar's part. The look on his face, though... it was thrilling. The pure hate and anger... it turned her snarl into a smile, eager and ready.
He felt like an eternal... she was not so far below him. With a little help... maybe she could bring in two to give to Laurelite. Or one and a starseed. She wondered what color this Prince's was. It could only be a boost to her standing to take him down.
"Hello, Handsome..." Cinnabar rumbled as she rocked back and pushed herself to her feet. Her tail lashed behind her as she tugged her coat straight, still smiling. "Its so nice of you to join the party. The sweet little thing over there was just telling me about you and I've heard so many... wonderful things through the grapevine."
Face drawn into lines of effort, the merged officer opened herself and pulled... and some portal opened beside her, a gateway to somewhere else, and something slimy spilled out of it, voicing its protests. She made a face at it, but was quick to grab hold as it tried to escape.
"We'll make this a real party..." She rumbled, her voice going thick with an animal-like growl. Darting her head down, she bit the youma she held and it dissolved in her hands. A black, oily cloud rolled in her grip and she swallowed it down, drinking it in through her mouth. The moment it was full consumed, her eyes flew wide and she growled, the surge of power making her shudder in pure pleasure.
"Come on, Princeling... come play." Cinnabar taunted before she rushed the senshi, her fingers curled to end in sharp claws.

Youma Ability:
Youma Absorption - Cinnabar activates her ability by biting into a full youma. This causes them to dissolve into a black, oily cloud that she then swallows. While absorbed, the youma gives her a physical boost, upping her strength, speed and defense. After ten minutes, her body rejects the youma and its regurgitated; slightly drained, but undamaged. This ability comes with a ten minute cool down. While her body is recovering, any attempt to eat another youma will result in getting violently ill as her body rejects the absorption.
