It was a little later in the evening...not too late that people weren't out still, but not so busy that anyone really noticed a black kitten sitting on a window sill outside a coffee shop. Silk was peering, er, glaring into the establishment of Just Add Coffee, simply because he could. Also because there looked like some pretentious grade A douche canoes in there he needed to judge. Which he did. He was kind of taking a break...finding senshi things wasn't really easy...in fact, he could still count the number he had met on one paw. Yeah. It sucked. So alas, he was on the sill. Judging. Because breaking Lace's things wasn't always fun, so he had to find other things to do.

Chase had opted to work that night, at least for a couple of hours, because one of his employees had begged him to cover part of their shift. Still, the night was a slow one and he was considering bailing out thirty minutes before the other shift was supposed to step in. There was still a barista on duty who was more than capable of handling the slow pace of the night.
Besides, there was apparently a cat on his window sill.
He probably needed to shoo it away.
So, Chase announced that he was leaving, taking a drink in a medium to-go cup, and left the store. He walked over to the cat, ready to nudge it with his foot when he saw the star on it's forehead.
"You better run on the dark side or we're going to have a problem." He stated flatly.

Silk had been staring at the guy who looked to be leaving, especially once it became clear he was coming for him. The kitten didn't budge an inch, looking for all the world like he owned that damn window sill, because he did. Golden eyes narrowed as the man approached, and while he was surprised that the man spoke up about the dark side and that he must be in the know, it didn't show. Without skipping a beat, the kitten replied: "The only problem you're having is that hair." Pink. Seriously!? "Are you a corrupt senshi thing?" He narrowed his eyes even more, and judged, but figured if he touched him, he'd get a feeling for it...but that meant touching him. His tail flicked as he waited.

The insult didn't even make Chase blink because it wasn't the first and it wouldn't be the last time that some smart-a** was going to attempt to make a dig at his choice in hairstyle. He liked it, it didn't matter if other people liked it too.
"The only problem we're gonna have is if you don't shut your mouth," he quipped flatly, bending low so that he could easily reach for the scruff of Silk's neck. "Now is not the time nor place for talking kittens," Chase said quiet and low as his fingers dug into the white fluff around Silk's neck then grasped at the scruff of his neck lifting him into the air, carefully positioned so that the cat faced away in case he tried to lash out.
"Hardly, to answer your question," he huffed, shaking his head as he carried the cat off towards the back of the building where he could at least dip out of sight.

Silk let out a yowl as he was suddenly plucked up by the scruff. He did try making a swipe, but realized it was pretty much futile as the guy was smart, and angled him away. "What's the matter, douche canoe?" He hissed, not bothering to keep quiet in the slightest. " Scared?" Granted, being held like he was kind of made him do that thing kittens do when grabbed by the scruff. Just hang there doing nothing. For the most part. His mouth was still a running though. "Oh yeah? Are you one of those Negaverse things, then?" Nuxaz That image is beautiful, and Silk looks just as grumpy 8D Also, bby, just so you know, you spelled my username wrong : ' D...luckily I obsessively check Gaia so I caught this tag <3

"You aren't terrifying at all," Chase replied in a very, very dry voice. "You're what most people consider to be cute." The tall, two-toned hair man had a feeling that would upset the cat, but he didn't care. Silk was literally all talk and just fluff.
Besides, he was General Labyrinthite and some guardian cat didn't care him. That was a laughable thought in itself.
It was easy for Chase to disappear into the dark of back of the building, stepping into a narrow alley between buildings. It was easy to slip between Chase and General Labyrinthite, magic washing over him and draping his simple clothing with his magical uniform. He lifted Silk towards his face, out of swiping distance, and he frowned.
"What do you think kitten?"

" Better to look cute than fruity." As Chase shifted from his civilian identity to his powered, Silk's eyes narrowed, and he looked the General over, starting from his toes and moving up until he hit his face again. His eyes were still narrowed as he stared the man in the eye. "I think you look even more ridiculous." He hissed, but there was no denying the power he felt coursing from Labyrinthite, and it was the strongest he had felt since being grabbed by the General Queen. That had garnered his interest and curiosity immediately. He could get over how silly the General's attire looked because of that. "You're no small fry either. Are you a high ranking Negaverse thing?"

"Ah, but I can crush you all the same," he threatened and it wasn't clear if he meant it or not, just that it was a possibility. "You're small and fragile."
Easily breakable.
He inhaled sharply and then -
They had left the alley and were atop the tallest building in DC, one of Labyrinthite's favorite, before he dropped Silk to the ground unceremoniously. Amber eyes blinked slowly as he looked down at the small ball of fur before he cocked his head.
"I am. General Labyrinthite," he introduced, a dark brow arching as he waited for the guardian cat to spit out it's name.

"Crush me and you'll be a dumb a**. Seriously crush me, and you'll be a dead dumb a**." Silk didn't doubt in the slightest that someone would hunt the man down if he did. After all, he knew he was important because he was a Guardian Cat, but the fact had just been cemented that he was pretty much a gift to the Negaverse because of the rarity of Corrupt Guardian Cats. He knew it, and he acted like it. He owned it. The kitten landed on his feet when he was dropped, his tail sticking straight up as he made the landing. He stood like that for a moment before he then sat down, turning his narrowed gaze far up to the the General. "General, huh?" He drawled. "Well aren't you just fantastic." He was, actually. The kitten really wanted to know all the things he did, as someone who was obviously in a position of power. "Silk." He introduced in return. "What kind of things do you do, General?"

The ball of fur had confidence, which Labyrinthite appreciated, but the cockiness was not deserved, in his opinion. Guardian cats were harder to come by for the Negaverse that was true, but in his opinion most were left better off unawakened, or corrupted after. No where else in the world had the issue with guardian cats like DC did.
Laurelite had made sure that Europe never saw a guardian cat alive.
Eventually, they would be weed out the general was sure. Even if they had their usefulness.
"Make no mistake cat. Everyone is replaceable." When one fell, two more replaced it. Cats could be rare finds but more would rise if the need came. Corruption was something that could be forced, no one had to be willing.
He smirked at the smug little cat staring up at him in contempt. "Teleporting not fancy enough for you?" It was usually what wowed those that could not do it themselves.
"Why don't you show me what you can do little cat." It'd been a while since he'd been able to personally witness a guardian cat's powers. He knew of the energy dampening abilities, heard of the star laser but -
if Silk was going to try and demand Labyrinthite show off he would do the same.

Silk's tail flicked, and one eye narrowed practically into a slit while the other widened a bit, staring at the General speculatively. "Disagree." He replied bluntly, and then scoffed. "I'm a talking cat---teleporting is just a stupid fancy parlor trick." Both of his eyes went back to being narrowed once more, and he scoffed again. "Pretty sure you know what a Guardian Cat does, so let's skip the pissing contest. I'm not interested in showboating abilities, I'm interested in what you do." He stared up at him expectantly. "Raising armies? Collecting star seeds? Crushing Order? You're a general, so I hope you'd actually done something to get there." The kitten drawled. "Instead of being really good at taking it up the a** or getting promoted by being on your knees." He waited, his tail flicking again.

"Ah but you're hardly one of a kind," Labyrinthite shot back, clearly unimpressed with the attempted sharp tongue of the mouthy kitten. "Zirconia, now she was a cat worth looking up to," he said, thinking fondly of he lavender cat that he hadn't seen since he'd delivered dark-mirror senshi starseeds to her.
It'd been so long ago, but with her ability to mirror-walk well - she could've easily been lost to it. It did not matter because Silk was not Zirconia and she had been a unique case. He knew that.
"I've done plenty." Regaling his legacy would take too long, would be too much of a mouthful and frankly, would make him seem like more talk than anything else. His bite was much worse than his bark. "The army is building," he shrugged.
"Please, only the weak get on their knees to gain rank. They're disgraces," he snarled, almost seeming offended at the allegations thrown his way. "I do not need to whore my way to the top." Though he was certain that there were those that tried do just that. Labyrinthite was not and would never be one of them.
"Why don't we get you a starseed to show you just what I'm capable of, but you'll have to put your magic to use. Make it more fun when we surprise a white mooner."

Silk made a show of looking left, looking right, looking up, down, back behind, and then finally back up to Labyrinthite. "Gee!" He exclaimed in a mock gasp of surprise. "I don't see any cat named Zirconia anywhere, much less to look up to." His tone went flat. "You won't find another like me, and the only reason you're one of a kind, General, is because that uniform trim is ugly." As the general proposed an idea though, the kitten was suddenly on his paws, his golden eyes widening a tad and brimming with anticipation and excitement of the prospect of seeing this agent in action. " Now you're talking! Heh! Of course! You don't need to tell me twice!" He also didn't wait for him to make the first move. Instead, Silk leapt and clung to the fabric of the General's uniform, where he then climbed his way up. At least he was nice about it. He dug in enough to climb the fabric, not enough to claw. He made quick work zipping up to Labyrinthite's shoulder, where he hunkered down. "Let's go!"

"A snotty cat with an attitude? Whatever would I do without you?" Chase asked dryily, looking thoroughly unimpressed by the insults Silk was trying to throw his way. "And yet, I still entice more terror than you'll ever be capable of." Despite his dryness, the general was quietly amused at the "look at how tough I am" attitude of such a tiny cat. He appreciated the spirit the little thing had.
He liked spirit.
He did not, however, expect Silk to respond so eagerly to his suggestion, scaling Labyrinthite's lanky form and perching on his shoulder. He craned his neck slightly, regarding the stability of the cat before he nodded. "Very well, we'll see what we can find wandering the city."
He teleported them from the roof top and into what was supposed to be a highly populated part of town, slipping from the shadows to observe the people as they passed until he felt the pulse of order and he moved to pursue it quickly.
The aura belonged to a young girl, no older than eighteen dressed in the colors of red and gold - obviously a martian just like the one he'd slaughtered in the warehouse - and she didn't even see him coming. His scythe materialized effortlessly, though holding it aloft with one hand took an obvious strain of muscles even if he accomplished wielding it artfully.
The girl barely had time to scream before he was swinging, cutting a nice line into her belly despite the leather armor she wore. It only took a second for Labyrinthite to be in her space with his hand in her chest tugging her starseed free. She'd been young and foolish and woefully unprepared.
But he had what he wanted, reaching up to offer Silk the starseed. "A treat for you."

Of course Silk had to snark back that Laby would entice more terror than the kitten would--- because he was a small kitten. Kittens weren't exactly scary. Duh. That aside, the kitten hung onto the general's shoulder, his eyes wide with anticipation and excitement. He concealed the aura and focused on finding one of Order, and his fur was practically standing on end as they located one and the general made short work of her. It was so fast, so efficient, so ruthless without any effort or strain--- And he had a beautiful front row view. It was over pretty fast, and before he knew it, the signature was gone and the general was offering something to him. The kitten blinked, and focused on the sparkly gem. Oooh...was that a star seed, that everyone seemed to be going on about? Then again, Laurelite had stuck her hand into his and his sister's chests too, when she had found them... After a moment, the kitten opened his mouth, and reached out and took the star seed. He didn't bother so much as trying to chew, as he did comically just swallow it whole. Silk sat there for a moment, seeming to wait for something, before he rolled his eyes towards Labyrinthite, and if he had an eyebrow, it'd be raised.
