Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bellerophon waited impatiently as he looked to see how far his wraith had gone to collect energy. He wasn't sure if it was because he was a Basic, or if this one just appeared to be slow, but it felt as though it were taking forever just to drain energy from the people it was zipping between.

And there wasn't really anything he could do on the rooftop besides sit and wait for his wraith to finish. He had to admit at leas the Negaverse way of collecting energy was easier. All they had to do was be near them or touch them. Dark Mirror on the other hand needed to rely on wraiths to collect it for them, and it was painful if they lost them.

So when he felt the aura of an approaching Senshi he immediately called his wraith back to make sure that the Senshi couldn't destroy it in case they came upon it. He had hoped that they would move away from him, but alas, it appeared that they were coming straight for him. He moved over to the side of the building with the alleyways and jumped down. If he was going to fight, his powers were more useful the closer the opponent was, so the narrow alley space would be perfect in case he had to fight. He had his back up against one of the walls so it couldn't be attacked directly. Now he just needed to see if his opponent was wanting to fight tonight.

Bellerophon couldn't hide his surprise at the Senshi's outfit when she came into view.. All of the tentacles weirded him out. He knew that his outfit was a bit out there, but TENTACLES. He stared at it for a moment before remembering there was a person attached and hesitantly let his eyes wander from them.

He really hoped that they didn't move.

"Uh... yeah." He said, his brain attempting to catch up from the tentacles.

Tentacles.

Finally his brain managed to catch up to the situation and he looked at her with a questioning face. "You here to stop me or something?" At least he had put his wraith back. That way the little amount of energy that it had collected hadn't gone to waste. He was nervous about the situation. Even if the Senshi was friendly, that didn't necessarily mean that he could trust them.

To be honest he really wasn't sure who his wraith had targeted. He just told it to go and it did. But he wouldn't mention that to her. He still gave a look to her skirt. Just because she said that it was fabric, it could still be animated...

"Uh well, thanks for explaining that." He replied. "Usually you're type want to fight everyone who is chaos from what I've seen. I haven't really met someone who was okay with just letting chaos go." He wasn't sure if he should have his guard up against her or not.

But he decide he could at least give his name and sphere, as if his outfit wasn't a clue to the latter. "I'm Bellerophon, Dark Mirror Senshi of Chimera. Who are you?" He wasn't one for too many pleasantries.

Now it started to make sense. She didn't know what a Dark Mirror was, so the cautious approach was the right one to make.

He sighed wishing Itokawa or some other Eternal was here to explain it to her. He was a newbie to the Dark Mirror himself and didn't believe he would be able to give a proper explanation, but he decided to give it a try. "You might want to ask another, more experienced, Dark Mirror later, but basically we're a different kind of Senshi that can go through Mirrors and have our own realm or reality." Was he explaining this correctly?

"We gather energy to fuel our powers. So if our powers go out, we can no longer transrrom. We aren't aligned with the Negaverse from what I can tell, so although we may both have chaos auras, we don't believe in the same things." He shook his head a little, trying to get his thoughts in order. "Is this making sense to you? I'm still new to all of this."

"I think your skirt startled me more than anything else." He wouldn't say anything about his wraith. She might have hit it thinking it was a Youma if she didn't know what Dark Mirror Senshi were. What he didn't understand was the fact she didn't judge Negaverse. Perhaps some of them could be saved after all.

Nothing he could do about it though. Unless they were Senshi, they couldn't join his faction anyway.

"It's not your fault. We just have to be on guard against other auras anyway. Even if you weren't an Order Senshi who was against us, you could have been a Negaverse Agent or even a Knight who didn't like Dark Mirror." He couldn't remember if he had met a Knight, but knew that he had heard about them. "But I think I can defend myself a bit at least just in case you did. Breathing fire has some advantages at least." He said with a chuckle.

He wouldn't say anything about his awakening. He had gone into it willingly. His partner had shown him what a Dark Mirror was and he had gotten mixed up in some of the trouble that wasn't any "faction's" fault. He couldn't continue to be in all of this if he was able to become a Senshi. And so he had become a Dark Mirror willingly when a Corrupted Mauvian had sensed it in him.

He did it mostly for self-defense however. He didn't do it necessarily because he wanted to.

"That's a good way to look at it. You never know why they could be in the place that they are." He said.

He nodded, smiling a little. "Blinding with ink could be good as well. My attack works better with my partners, but if we teamed up for example, I bet we could do a lot of damage if I lit that ink on fire against a Youma or something." Even if his attack was an actual attack instead of a buff or a heal, it wasn't too good unless it was for self-defense. It didn't go that far out, so when he did use it, it was usually in combination with others.

"I'll show you." He said, turning away from her and facing towards a darker part of the alley with less trash. "Breath of Fire!" He said before closing his mouth again. He hadn't quite gotten this part down, so he usually kept it in for longer than needed, but eventually he opened his mouth again and flame shot out three feet in front of him! When it was done he closed his mouth and looked back at the Senshi. "Doesn't hurt my mouth if you're wondering."

He hadn't expected her to actually try to combine their attacks, and the result was... well to be expected. He couldn't help but chuckle. "Well, at least we know it works!" He said.

He looked around, there was a restaurant near here right, which would mean that... Yes! He quickly went to one of the sides of the buildings and broke the glass for the fire extinguisher, grabbed it, and ran back over and attempted to smother the fire with it.

"Hopefully this puts it out!"

"I bet it could be used for all sorts of things. It's interesting, I didn't think of trying a combination attack with someone other than my partner, but this shows that it can work with other attacks as well." There were many possibilities that it could be used for, and the more he got to know his fellow Dark Mirror Senshi, the more he could learn about their powers, and then he could make suggestions to them.

"You should see who you know that you might be able to work with. I bet it wold make battling Negaverse Agents a lot easier if you aren't by yourself and you can change your attack a bit to make it both unexpected and more powerful."

Now he was sounding too much like he was her teacher. Weird. "A-anyway, it was nice to meet you Limosa. I learned something from you today and it was nice not to be attacked on sight."
