Welcome to Gaia! ::

The moon was just rising above the edge of the horizon as the sun set behind her. A small sliver of a moon but enough to cast its warm glow. She was alone, out earlier than she normally would be but today was a day she just needed to be out. Oh the cool winter air felt wonderful. Phact was smiling.

Walking towards the fountain she claimed as her 'own', the senshi took up her normal seat for a moment to let darkness take over. That was. When she would begin her training.
---
He had taken the last few nights off if his regular patrol, so this night he had taken to the park. It seemed like as good a place as any and as he sat there in the branches he noticed a familiar face. "Phact..." His voice was a whisper, but he was certain that she could sense him. He could feel another signature not far off, this one was new. He waited, watched, hopeful that this new person was friend and not foe.
---
He had taken the first few steps into the world of chaos. Since awakening to this life, Raspite had questioned why it was he was born to serve darkness. Though in the truth, the darkness was not the dreaded thing it appeared. "To defend the earth and protect it from those that would attempt to claim her as their own..." He looked to a group of lovers, rolling his eyes as he held out his hand, drawing on their lifeforce. "Love is such a sweet energy..." He grinned, eyes alight. "It will go to good use, our world will be safe, and the white moon will fall. "
---
Phacts head jerked up to the tree as she heard her name called out. It took a moment, wide eyed, before she found the source and smiled. "Hello Nirvana. It is good to see you again. How is the arm?"

But she was only able to smile shortly before she felt something pulling on her senses. Chaos. They weren't alone. "Someone else is around"
---
Nirvana smiled, he giving her a nod before leaping down from the tree, he bowing before he perked at the power. "I can feel them. It is weak, but not youma. It is different..." He looked up her, eyes wary. "Do we go together or attack from different angles?" He knew if it was chaos they would not be friendly
---
Phact shook her head and reached out a hand to stop him. "We do neither." She said stepping in front of him and visually sensing out the third aura. "An agent. Low rank from what i can tell."
---
He closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath and focusing on that aura. He could feel the agent, sense the power he was using. He turned his head in the direction of that power. "The far corner of the park...near the gates." He opened his eyes, the pale hues starting at phact. "He is drawing energy, i can feel it."
---
"So you think. There is no way to know that part for sure." Phact corrected with a soft smile before starting to walk towards the direction he had pointed. "Come, we need to be there to make sure this one isn't a killer..." Frankly Phact didn't want to face an agent. She hated doing it. They were human as much as anyone else. But she also would not ignore anyone else in need of help. "Do not jump into battle. If we can talk, always better than action first..."
--
Nirvana gave a gentle nod, he slowly walking in the direction of the power he felt. The idea that something that gave off so much power could infact be reasoned with, confused him. Though, truth be told, he had not faced an agent up until now. "The agents, they are not like the youma we fight?" He glanced over his shoulder at her. "Have you faced an agent before?"
---
As the couple fell before him, he knelt at their side, he touching each of their shoulders, closing his eyes and smiling softly. "Rest, your energy will replenish and all will be well. I thank you for this, and in the name of earth we will reclaim what was ours."
--
"I have. Some wish to speak with us. Others will not listen and will attack without warning. Always be on your guard when dealing with an agent...do not go after one on your own." she said with a kind, but firm warning. "I was lucky to get away once..."

"They are also human. So you cut them, they bleed. There is no dusting an agent."
---
"Human, they are human?" He took a deep breath. It was easier to battle those that were monsters, but to know that these agents were just like them, that made the battle harder. "How do you fight them? A life is a life, to harm one that sees differently than us, it just seems like bad karma."

He tried to think of what it would be like. Confronting this person that, like him, believed in something so strongly they were willing to fight for it. Did that make them wrong? Did that make him right? He blinked and tried hard not to overthink it, but in the end it simply hurt his mind to try and grasp it.

“If this person is willing to talk, what then? And more so, what if they did not wish it and they would sooner attack us? Do we take the higher ground and not attack back? Or shall we merely defend and hope this agent will give in?”
--
“You fight them to make sure you aren’t killed.” Phact stated quickly. “It’s why I warned you not to jump into battle before attempting to be...civil. More and more agents out there are willing to kill us without question solely because of the aura we give off.”

Phact seemed set in stone as they approached. This was not her first agent and would not be her last. She only could hope maybe this one was not as far gone as the others.

“Should they attack, we defend. Many will make a run for it if need be. Others…” The thought made her shiver. “Nirvana, I will be frank, at all times you must be willing to face bloodshed. Avoid if possible. Sometimes...it isn’t. I learned that the hard way…”

Her mind had gone back to the first agent she ever fought. For zero reason he had appeared, attacked her, and left her for dead. She still bore a scar on her ankle from it.
---

The young knight gave a nod to the senshi. He giving her a rather sad smile as he walked along behind her. There was so much she had been through. So many things that he had not even begun to imagine.

This would be his first time encountering an agent face to face. His first time looking into the eyes of the intelligence behind the Negaverse. It was disconcerting to him. If the Negaverse could bring others into the fold as they could, there was a chance they could be vastly outnumbered.

He stayed close behind Phact. Normally he would have taken the lead, allowed her to be protected, but she seemed to know what she was doing in this case, and he was just a child compared to her. “I will do what is needed to protect myself and you. I will also do what I can to learn about these agents and what it is we can do to stop them.”

They were growing closed now to the signature. He could feel the other stronger now, he looking to Phact as she moved on. “Instruct me, tell me what is needed and I am your man.”

---

The Lt. rose from the ground, his eyes suddenly very alert. He could feel them, two energy signatures and they were coming his way. These were not mortals like those he had just been with, oh no, this was something more.

He darted into the shadows near the couple. He hiding in the bushes and behind a large oak tree. He would see who these signatures were, and from there he would decide if it was worth the fight, or if it was simply moot. Two order sigs were never a good sign, and even if he could pull off being just another person in the park, he knew they would be able to sense him.

---
The senshi of doves said nothing as she came around the corner and laid eyes on the fallen couple. There was no mistaking the hard lines that came across Phact’s eyes. She had seen this too many times. “Go check their pulse.” She commented to Nirvana as her own eyes began to shift around towards the shadows. Though they moved quickly, her body was not until she pinged the aura.

“There is no point in hiding.” Phact called out, eyes locking on the general area she felt the aura. She could not pin 100% but she could get the general location. “We know you are there just as you knew we were coming.”

Her hands extended out to the sides in a more open gester. “So why don’t you come on out and we can talk?”
---

“Talk? Are you certain that those of your persuasion even know the meaning of the word? You assume the worst of me even in your actions and that alone makes you a hostile enemy.” He spoke from the shadows, his accent thick and anything but native to the area. He did not make to move, his eyes following the actions of Nirvana as the man did as he was told by the woman in white.

---

Nirvana moved swiftly to the couple. He falling to his knees before them, checking their pulses one after the other, relieved when he felt that they were strong. “They are alive. He did not drain them fully.”

He glanced up in the direction of the voice once he was certain that the couple was safe. Why had he not drained them fully? Did not those of the negaverse take all they could when they could? Perhaps Phact was right and this one would be different.

---

Raspite was uncertain of what to make of this senshi before him. He had been told upon his corruption that the White Moon was the enemy. That they were the invaders that they were attempting to save the humans from. Yet this woman, she did not seem to want to fight, and that fact left him baffled.

He kept his eyes on Nirvana, the dark green hues narrowing a bit as the other insinuated that he would have killed the couple. "Why would I do them harm? They gave what they could to me and in so doing they have done what they can for the cause. For that they are to be thanked, not killed."

He rolled his eyes, moving just the smallest bit from the shadows. The light falling on the auburn hair and making it shine slightly. Half of him was still hidden, but Phact would be able to see his face. The cold, blank face that he kept in place when on patrol

---

Nirvana did what he could to make the couple comfortable. He was not certain if leaving them there in the center of the park was the best. After all, they would wake and be more than confused as to why they were in the park, let alone why they were face down in the grass.

He glanced to Phact just as the other stepped from the shadows. he had a moment where he wanted to rush to her side and protect her, but in the end he stayed where he was. It was best not to startle the enemy. He was not certain what this one was capable of.
