For the rest of Ploutonion and Laurelite’s conversation, please see Enter FreelyQuote: Ploutonion nodded, and brought his ring up to his face, activating the little magical upgrade. It was such a brilliant little device - useful for sending polite letters to General-Queens, and for making distress calls to bring his own people into what was, effectively a trap.
He took a breath, and when he spoke into the ring, he sounded genuinely panicked.
"This is Ploutonion Squire of Saturn - I'm by the fountain in Central Park, and...there's a General-Queen -- I don't want to corrupt, and I don't want to die, please, help!"
He turned off the message, and then nodded politely to the General-Queen, all traces of fear gone for the moment. He would need to bring it back when there were others here, but not just yet.
"Call your backup, Majesty. I'm putting on the performance of a lifetime here, I'd hate to do it in front of a small audience." Quote: Laurelite watched as Ploutonion made his call, relatively impressed at his ability to lie on the spot. While a good trait to have, it was a dangerous one; she would need to keep her eye on this one. She withdrew a crystal from a hidden pocket, toyed with it for a second, and then held it up to speak into it. She needed no theatrics. "General Queen Laurelite," she announced into it, "Any and all agents in the immediate vicinity of Central Park should direct themselves to the fountain. I am pursuing Squire Ploutonion and wish to detain him by evening's end. He has backup arriving, but I need him alive. I don't care about the rest." She lowered and pocketed the crystal. "If you want a scene, it would be wise to leave some survivors. Unfortunately, I am not so keen on restraining myself against my enemies. I will give you a few moments to fight for your life." Her eyes flashed. "And then I will claim it." She disappeared from before him, though her aura still lingered in the nearby area.
Your mission is to protect Ploutonion Squire of Saturn, and keep the Negaverse from acquiring a new agent!
CHAOS: You have come in response to General-Queen Laurelite’s call.
Your mission is to capture Ploutonion and ensure that he is corrupted into the Negaverse!
OOC NOTES:
Please, please, PLEASE do not assume your character is aware this is a setup. They are not, they should not be. The only ones who are aware of the plan are PLOUTONION and LAURELITE. If you are not either of them, you do not know! I want to emphasize this because my plot for his Captain stage relies on people believing he was forcibly corrupted.
This RP is set to end in Ploutonion’s corruption! While Order characters are welcome to interfere and divert, I will post a note when his actual, final “capture” is going down - at that point I request that you find a way for your characters to be unable to interfere further! I am willing to help provide diversions so your character isn't doing something OOC! In other words, please don’t corruption-block me.
There is a map, provided in the post below, of the area in which the engagement is taking place! This map comes with handy dandy LABELED GRID SQUARES! Whimsical Blue provided the map, for she is wonderful. Please note your grid square at the top of your post - there is room for more than one person per square (obviously, as they are 20ftx20ft.) I hope this will reduce some of the typical ORP “where is everybody” and “who gets affected by my magic” confusion!
I really, really want everyone to have fun with this so PLEASE HAVE FUN<3 If any problems arise that I can fix, let me know!

Ganymede is in grid D4! Please feel free to engaged her! <333 Ganymede and Valhalla were already out on patrol when the distress call came, hunting down a stubborn youma that managed to skitter away at the last moment. It was with some frustration that Ganymede turned to run in the opposite direction upon hearing the call.
“Come on, let's go,” she said, and grabbed Valhalla by his cape—this turned out to be a needless effort, as he was already turning to respond to the cry of distress.
Ganymede's eyes were wide but her gaze was hard with determination. There was a General Queen. No name had been provided. It could be either of the ones she knew about, or perhaps it was someone else entirely. She didn't know their power structure top to bottom, just that there were two at the top she'd like to take down if she could.
So when she arrived at the park, her mission was less one of rescue and more one of revenge. Let Valhalla handle the rescue attempt. That was more his style.
“Who is it?” she said, catching the lingering trace of a powerful aura as she came to a stop just south of the fountain. “Where is she? Come out and fight, you coward!”************************************************** Aquamarine is in grid C2! Feel free to engage! <33 Lieutenant Aquamarine arrived on the scene with a heavy sigh and a lazy, loping gait. He might not have responded to the call if the order hadn't come from General Queen Laurelite herself. As it was, he thought it important to do as she said if he intended to get promoted.
Which was all he wanted, really. He wanted power. He wanted authority over other Lieutenants. He wanted another weapon other than this useless plastic toy sword, and he could only get that by being promoted to Captain. It had been almost a year since he'd taken his first hasty steps into the Negaverse, and nothing had happened yet, even though he'd done what he was told and fought every battle he could and even tortured people for information that didn't even prove to be worth much, in his opinion.
But he was here, and he would follow orders. Maybe this time he'd succeed in impressing the right person.

Hyperborea is coming in at A1 feel free to engage her biggrin Hyperborea was on patrol, she had just finished dusting a weak youma when she received a call of distress on her ring. It was from someone she remembered.
Ploutonion. she thought. The Saturn page I meet a few months ago, I swear I won't loose this one. She thought as she raced to the scene. coming out from some trees.
She could feel some powerful auras already there. An eternal and knight were already on the scene. However the aura that caught her attention was the overbearing aura of what she presumed was the General-Queen. Under other circumstances she probably would have been frozen in fear but now was not the time for hesitation. She choked down her fear and steeled her nerves.
She saw the Saturn squire. "Ploutonion, are you ok?!" She called out to him as she ran towards him.

Umber is in grid D3 with Ploutonion"You subversive, impudent little deceiver," Umber snarled into the dark. "You would have me on to pull this shitshow."
How many weeks had passed since he and Ploutonion talked in the courtyard and discussed the merits of swapping sides? Umber lost track in the chaos following, but the impression still lingered - that Ploutonion considered the Negaverse as a favorable ally in the war. The dreams he spoke of, the ones of a future dominated by the Negaverse, persuaded heavily. But now, he stood as object to a General-Queen. He stood against the cause that he spoke well of perhaps only a month prior. Granted, that measure of time could house many discouragements and evidences to the contrary, but he doubted that so much could happen to one man that would unravel all of Umber's careful discussions.
And if Laurelite had not called for you alive, I'd wrench your spine from your back and fashion the vertebrae into cuff bracelets. Several deep breaths combined with the steady pressure of nails against his palm fought to calm his raging heart. He still felt the pulse behind his eyes by the time he determined he had enough control to act upon the request.
With neutral countenance affixed, the captain crested buildings and dipped through alleyways until he came upon the broad clearing that formed the Central Park of Destiny City. The great fountain was visible past swaths of yellow flowers, and beyond that stood the frightened squire in question and his arriving entourage. A woman sporting theatrical wear shouted toward the shadows for the Sovereign - undoubtedly she felt Laurelite as keenly as Umber did. Next to her stood someone of her rank, though not quite as saccharine nauseous as her. Already they stood outnumbered, but if his last operation instilled any measure of understanding, he knew that taking down the target was paramount before the attempt blossomed into an overblown ******** the snot-nosed s**t that started this soon-to-be battle stood much too close to the edge of the fountain.
Umber started at a sprint, too new to teleportation to chance a sudden spatial shift and still attack the target. And once he was certain he closed in far enough toward the squire, he leapt with knee poised to embed in the man's stomach. If connected, Umber hoped to wind him and force him into the fountain itself for a well-earned stint of waterboarding before corruption.Sunshine Alouette mention; you are invited to interfere if you like

Sailor Etamin comes in at D1 Free to engage.
Etamin had just transformed for the second time outside the park, when he had recieved the distress call. He knew this time wouldn't be like the last time. Last time was child's play, taking on that weak youma. This time a Squire (who know there were squires in this?) was at risk. He had snuck away in an alley while his parents shopped and transformed. Now he was into the park,,attemptting to find the source of this distress call. He might not be able to do much, but he could do a little and that would stilll help.

Namaka is coming in at Grid 6A!
The park was usually so peaceful. The perfect place to patrol and do her best to avoid any tangles with other magically inclined people. Clearly that was not the case tonight. Namaka felt her senses battered under the onslaught of multiple auras appearing and converging on the park. For a brief moment, she considered turnign tail and running back home, but curiosity made her feet travel closer to the auras.
What on earth was going on tonight?
And somewhere lurking was an aura so very powerful that it nearly took Namaka's breath. Caution be damned, she thought. She wanted to know who was generating an aura like that! And what could be important enough to bring them here.
---------------------------------------------
Haumea is in Grid F3!
The pulsing of his crystal, the crisp, yet calm orders from Laurelite. These things were more than enough to capture and hold Haumea's attention. A trapped Knight, hrmm? Pity that the General Queen had specified that this knight was male. He would have dearly loved it if it had been that uppity b***h who'd done her level best to murder him for no good reason.
Frowning slightly as he raced in the direction of Laurelite's rather... substantial aura, Haumea thought that, at the least, this would be highly educational. He's never seen anyone corrupted. He didn't even have any memory of his own! So this Ploutonian would have to be his moment of vicarious living.
The flickering of other auras caught his attention. Chaos and Order. Well, well. This would be fun.

Scolecite is at Grid E4 Fill free to engage him.
It had been a slow night, one that bored and annoyed him to no end. He enjoyed spending time here, be it as a civilian or when he was patrolling for the Negaverse as he was now. He had paused in the park at this moment in time, his hands in the deep pockets of his long black coat, his black hair pulled back into a tight ponytail as it always was. Everything was peaceful, quiet and boring, until he received a call for backup.
He listening intently to the General-Queen's call, his yellow eyes slowly sharpening as a smirk formed on his lips. It was about time he got to fight with some of those idiotic do-gooders and this would be the perfect chance. Pulling his hands out of his pocket, his eyes moved to look in a diagonal line and towards the fountain that rested in the middle of the park. That was where everything was going to go down, so he wasn't going to go and run towards anyone, no he was going to lie in wait and see who came across his path. He'd strike when someone was near.

Mont Blonc is in D6, en route to D5! Feel free to engage! smile Mont Blonc was acutely aware of his failure to save the senshi from negaverse clutches last time -- so when someone he actually knew sent out an SOS, his heart sank into his stomach. He knew so few knights, even months after his return, and Ploutonion was one of his own. The page had never even been to his own planet, but the pull he felt when it came to others of his planet --
He didn't even know what he could do; he was acutely aware of how he'd been next to useless the last time, more of a burden than an asset. But he had to do more than he'd done before. He had to help him. 'Ploutonion, hold on!'Amphitrite in D4, creeping on Ganymede!When her general-queen's voice came over the communicator, Amphitrite felt a thrill of excitement travel through her body, her eyes glinting with delight as she carelessly dropped the man she'd been draining for energy. The last call to arms had been, for her, a roaring success - any chance to show her queen what she was capable of was not a wasted opportunity. Really, any chance to see a glow of satisfaction from Laurelite's eyes, any chance to see a smile that said 'yes, I made the right choice in you'... could the corrupt senshi help but to feel an sort of infatuation with the woman who'd saved her life?
She glanced back down to the man lying prone on the ground, and thinking better of it, she plunged a hand down into his chest, plucking the starseed from within. The action came so easily to her now; she hadn't gotten to the point of consuming a starseed yet, but there may prove to be a need tonight if the command came directly from Laurelite's mouth.
However, when she came close to the growing gathering of energy signatures... she couldn't help but be given pause when she saw one of the glowing senshi, bellowing and drawing attention to herself. The last of her kind she'd encountered, Penthe, had been powerful... but Amphitrite had been able to leave the encounter unscathed. Perhaps it was cockiness that drew her, or perhaps it was a subconscious sense of nostalgia in her golden glow.
So, she emerged, summoning her shells to her forearms as she slunk from the shadows. "The only cowards here are your kind, senshi, " she spat, feeling the familiar invigorating rush of resentment surge up within her. As much as she hated them, she was finding she loved the feeling.

Ganymede in D4So concerned was she in looking for the General-Queen in question, Ganymede did not notice the poor Squire they were supposed to be saving until a Captain was already well on his way to retrieving him. Ganymede made a move to intervene, but the voice behind her stopped her in her tracks.
The voice was familiar, as was the aura she was feeling. A corrupted Senshi. Ironic that she should stress the word Senshi then when she was one herself, whether or not it was Chaos or purity that flowed through her.
Ganymede turned to look over her shoulder, unwilling to turn her back completely on the Squire and the Captain charging for him, but her breath stuttered in her throat and her knees buckled when she saw the Senshi's face.
“Amphitrite...”
She steeled her resolve quickly. Showing her emotions at a time like this, when a large battle seemed as if it would soon break out, was a weakness she couldn't afford to display.
“Val,” she said, reaching back to give her husband's hand a squeeze. “Help the Squire. I have this one.”
Only then, when she was certain that Valhalla was on his way to help, did she turn her back on the battle centering on the Squire to face Amphitrite. She looked the other Senshi over, struggling not to show any sense of sadness, but the guilt ate away at her as much as it did whenever she saw Cyllene.
What could she have done to prevent this?
“What happened to you?” she asked.
'Why can't I save anyone?' she asked herself.Strickenized Mention; Val will be headed your way!

Ploutonion is in D3!So far, it looked like his plan was a success. There were plenty of people coming in, which meant he had to affect panic, and that wasn't exactly hard. There were plenty of things to be nervous about. Like Order actually gaining some ******** competency for once, or at least having enough people show up to overwhelm things.
But Laurelite was a General-Queen, surely she could manage whatever happened.
He heard a familiar voice, and turned. "Hyperborea!" For a moment, he felt guilty - she was just a child, she didn't deserve to be tied up in this.
He didn't have time to worry too much, because there was an incoming Captain - a very familiar incoming Captain.
He had known Umber as a Lieutenant, but given what he had seen of the man, it was no surprise to see him promoted. It was also probably no surprise that his engagement was aggressive (which was useful in its own way.)
He brought up his wand in front of him, a block at least in front of his face, but the force of impact still sent him stumbling back and into the fountain. He let go of his weapon to push himself out of the water, coughing.
"s**t," he gasped. "Fancy meeting you here."

Amphitrite in D4 with: GanymedeSo the glowing senshi did know her. Amphitrite felt a prickle of self-satisfaction sink in amongst the plethora of embittered, angry feelings that coursed through her veins like blood. She didn't care about the knight, yet - if she was preventing one of the more powerful senshi from aiding the target, then it was enough. (It was a little more personal than that, but Amphitrite tried to mix business with pleasure when she could.)
"What happened to me - that's a question I've been hearing a lot, " she hissed, keeping herself in a defensive position whether or not she would need it or not. It was proven that she'd known this senshi, but now the question was, had she been an acquiantance? A familiar face? Maybe even a friend? What was she to this person who had gone so long without knowing what became of Amphitrite? How far could she take this? "Funny, given it's your fault."
She deliberately wore a pained look like a mask, amplifying the bitterness in her voice as she asked, "Why did you leave me to die?"

Methone is in G3, heading to F3! Free to engage!
Her patrols had been too quiet for too long. After the talk with Monty, she had realized that while she had her excitement feel after the funhouse. And she wasn't interesting in losing more order units to the chaos.
So when the summons came for help, Methone rushed to the park. She had no way of contacting any of her saturn counterparts and that was upsetting in the least. She hated to move in here alone but-
Her gaze was half lidded as she strolled through the park. Just a senshi strolling through the park you know...
Looking for some knight to save.

Harmonia is in C2 with Aquamarine!She had just finish dusting a youma when the cluster of energies grew to a point even she could not miss them. Furrowing her brow she turned as she looked in the direction of the mass of aura's a bit uncertain Her last fray into a large battle hadn't exactly ended well. I've had training though since. Plus, if someone needs help... She hesitated a few more moments before she raced towards the mass of auras in the park. It didn't take her long to arrive and she skidded to a halt. Trees and brush loomed up around her but it was the cluster of bodies near the fountain that caught her attention. Well, until she realized she was standing feet away from a nega agent. She jumped backwards to put more distance between herself and the lieutenant. With arms up ready to protect herself she gave him a wary look but made no move to engage in battle.

Half-youma General Cinnabar has teleported into D4 and is taunting Ganymede and Valhalla!A call rang from her communication crystal and with it came a surge of adrenaline and fierce joy. That was General-Queen Laurelite, calling forces to bear against Order, to capture a knight, no less. Beyond just her duty to respond, there was a pleasure in being able to serve Laurelite after everything the GQ had done for her. Plus, this was a wonderful opportunity to show off her new clothes. Who didn't love that?
Rising from her reclining in one of the comfortable armchairs in her room, General Cinnabar tugged her long coat straight with a rattle of chains and gathered herself. She flickered out of existence in the Dark Kingdom and reappeared in Destiny City, in Central Park. The cool night air brushed her face and the half youma lifted into it, a smile curling over her lip as she breathed it deeply.
Signatures sprang to life around her with her materialization and her eyes swept the area to take a quick assessment of who was where and what was going on.
Umber, now a captain, was taking care of a Squire in the fountain behind her and in front, a familiar basic corrupt senshi was facing off against a very familiar eternal senshi and her knight partner. Cinnabar's grin widened as she stepped forward with a swinging gate, her chains rattling as she drew her hands out of her pockets.
"Ah, look what we have. Two of the pets who escaped our cage! Come on, Pretty, lets play." She laughed at the Jupiter knight as she spread her hands in invitation.
