Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Most of them are further off, one is closer than I like but they can't sense us." None of those signatures she felt could pick up on them, and that gave Kafka a level of safety few had. He could learn, and gather energy, under the cover of safety which she provided for him. He was doing better though, slowly as it went, he was ginaing confidence and going out jmore often with her.

It would only be a matter of time before he had a level of comfort that she felt good about, where she wasn't worried about covering his signature, but that wouldn't be for a long while unless something drastic happened. He was still learning the city, something which took time, but at least he was gathering more energy and leaving the people unconsious so there was no chance of them rousing and attacking either of them in retaliation. It was a babystep and one she was proud of.

"If they get closer I'll let you know. We should be fine for now."

The Deep Space Senshi of Haunting was getting more comfortable patrolling on her own. Whether Sinistra was or not, of course, was another question: she was very protective, and she was often stressed when she did not know what Wezen was up to. It was a fair enough concern, as even Wezen could not predict how she might react in any one circumstance, and of course she had no powers that helped her see the future.

This planet was dangerous, but that was sort of the point of her going out on patrol, anyway. She was using the training she was being given to help the people of the planet not get consumed by Chaos. While helping people, or even other aliens, was not expressly her goal, sometimes it was a result of her efforts to stop Chaos from spreading its influence.

She was not human, and had no feelings toward their individual lives one way or another. There were a couple good ones that she would likely have an emotion she did not recognize about them dying or being hurt, but even then, they were all in the same service as she was, and understood the risks. Some even better than she did.

She was surprised when she stepped into an alley and spotted someone dressed in a similar way to many other Chaos operatives that she had seen in this city. Strangely, however, she could not sense the normal aura that radiated off of them, the one that told her where to walk when she wanted to pick a fight.

But their paths crossed, anyway, which meant she was inclined to intercept them. Them, she noted, included what looked to be a small, furry animal. That one was similar in shape to the very round one Camelot kept with him, though she could not recall what he had told her they were called. She had no realized they, too, were capable of being corrupted by Chaos.

She had followed a loud noise, but gave up on that in favor of this new lead.

"What are you doing?" she asked blandly, lacking accusation or interest in her tone. Her thoughts were entirely masked, as per usual, her expression nearly blank.

Kafka was so very glad for the layer of fluff on his uniform as Katya clawed him to stay on his shoulders. It was a good enough buffer that he didn't get pricked much by her and avoided making any extra noise.

Hearing and feeling the senshi, he nodded to Katya and waved a bit toward them while flashing a smile. They didn't look like they were about to attack him right out as that other alien senshi had, so that was nice. It meant that Katya's help could give him just a slight bit of extra time to figure things out if whoever happened upon them wasn't raring to go."Yes, just a night out wandering. Sometimes I'm a bit clumsy and bump into things while roaming. What brings you out this evening."

He was going to try and handle this if he could and avoid calling for backup. There was plenty around to pull down behind him if he needed to run and worst case, if he had to, he could get to the rooftops. It wasn't ideal but he'd have to bite that bullet and take that path if others were blocked off. There were a few places he could go and power down, as long as he got out of sight of them he could just disappear and head home.

"As we are wandering, and learning to lay out of the city, I am keeping his aura hidden so we might remain safe this evening. This city is new to us and we need to learn it's lay out safely, you understand I'm sure." Normally the truth, when it could be seen as a weakness, was not something Katya would offer up. However, in this case it very well might help them both so she was willing to give over the information. If they thought she was new as well it was fine, she was when compared to her General, and she didn't know everywhere in this city as it was rather large. She might have been in this city for years but she even got lost from time to time still, she didn't need to tell the order senshi that, but she knew what she was doing and hoping Kafka would understand. She kept her claws curled into the fluff of his uniform, so she couldn't be thrown from him.

"He is my charge and I am keeping him safe -as is my duty as a mauvian."

Wezen stood and listened, expression completely unreadable as she let them explain themselves. Sinistra always told her to let her foes explain themselves, and Camelot promoted peace over a brawl every single time. Only Carlisle and Painite told her to fight and do so with gusto, but she found it difficult to listen to anything the latter said.

Though she had teamed with Camelot and was under his protection, Wezen did not trust her simply because she had chaos inside her. She stank of it, and it seeped into the world around her, as Chaos always did. Every single agent existed to spread it, regardless of their ideals, thoughts, or manners.

It was why Wezen only went through the motions, but end result was always the same. She eyed the cat, the Mauvian, like Hadaya, but felt not better about it. It was clearly also Chaos, and thus a contributing factor in the destruction of this beautiful planet.

She heard their story, committed it to her memory, then lifted her hands.

"Hologram Ghost."

She had tried talking, tried to explain things, in the hopes it would work with this senshi. They had wanted to know, at least it seemed that way, and than they were using their magic anyway! Jumping from Kafka's shoulders she was already moving to avoid the magic just incase it would hit her as well, she had no idea what this senshi's magic could do.

It was Kafka's magic which responded to the attack, something she almost didn't expect from him, but as she stood there watching what was transpiring the mauvian felt herself finding it hard to breath...to draw in a full breath. She didn't panic, though perhaps she should have, but she was certain it was his magic and it would pass - magic always passed. Focused on keeping herself calm, on not over doing it, Katya tried to slow her breathing and take more breaths to try and counter the fact that each breath was nmot a full breath - she couldn't manage it.

"Merde..."

He'd hoped it would have done more to them but more than that Katya didn't look too good. Pulling his arm up he took the blow as he tried to get over to scoop Katya up. It didn't hurt too much, at least not more than what he'd dealt with during concerts or at the bar but that was probably because his magic had done at least something useful this time.

He felt sluggish but thinking about the path they'd taken he darted down an alley as best as he could. "Are you okay?" Whispering to the mauvian in his arms as he ran, he didn't really dare look back as he kept taking turns here and there to try and lose them. He just hoped that even if Katya was struggling she was still able to keep them both hidden as he ran.
