So now that Saleeite was starting to get the hang of this energy gathering thing, she was able to go alone without her other half to gather energy at a more convenient time for her. Right now, she was traveling at the reservoir, admiring the new surroundings when she found herself in. Granted, water was water, but she could still appreciate everything all the same. The lieutenant hummed to herself while wandering, stopping mid step when she felt an order signature nearby. Now she could leave it alone but she was always curious about the other side.

She figured as long as she didn't try to kill them off the bat she should be fine and there would be no need to call Polar. With her mind settled, she made her way towards the signature, halting slightly when it seemed like the silhouette of a rather big guy was coming into view. Instead of running like her instincts were telling her, she pressed on, hands behind her back to summon her rope just incase she had to climb a tree and cut off it's air supply.

Even though he had since moved out of the reservoir, Haik still found himself coming back fairly often when he went out at night. It was the closest large body of water he knew of, though he planned on asking Monika if there are others in the future, in case there were other options. Not that it meant he would stop coming to the reservoir, but at least it would add a bit of variety to his routine.

Tonight was no different for Haik, as he had taken a fascination to the sand of the place. He always thought it was a curious sound to make for sand. The shore back home certainly didn’t make such a sound, and the man found it…amusing, on top of curious, and strange of an interesting sort. He might have dwelled on the thought a bit longer if he hadn’t sensed the Chaos aura just nearby, and he frowned.

He wasn’t a fan of the aura, but he reserved judgement on the one it belonged to since he hadn’t really met them yet. Maybe they were just a misguided soul that got attracted by Chaos or something along those lines…he wasn’t one to hate such people. He noticed it was coming toward him, so he kept on walking until he spotted a silhouette in the distance. Now, on lifting his hand he didn’t intend to use his powers…but.

He felt a surge of energy suddenly flow through him, and before he could stop himself the words came to mind and suddenly he was casting his magic on whoever it was.


Quote:
Basic — Current of Will!
Haik speaks the name of his attack and makes a sharp gesture with his hand, mimicking the direction of the current he wants his attack to follow (toward/away from him or to the left/right of him). Those standing within 15 feet directly ahead of him will feel themselves being suddenly pulled in the direction his hand mimicked for 15 seconds. It will feel as though they’ve been taken up into a strong current, and they will feel the sensation of being cold and having some difficulty in breathing for the duration of the attack. They are free to move and attack from within the current, though it might be difficult. It’s possible to be lifted out of the current, and one could actually move out of it if they happen to be near the edge. He can use this 3 times per battle

Okay so she knew white moon could sense them just as well as she could sense them. But that was no excuse to use powers when she hadn't even done anything. Saleeite squeaked in distress when it felt like there was a force pushing her to the left, she struggled, falling over onto her left side. She tried getting up, but apparently that was next to impossible. Everytime she tried, the ... .Wind? Magic? Whatever the ******** kept pushing her down. Next thing she knew, she was shivering from a sudden chill, opting to just curl up into a ball to retain some form of warmth.

God where was Idri when you needed him? Oh, right…She forgot to message him so he would be on standby whenever she needed him. Good job Salee ... .The lieutenant was suddenly finding it a bit hard to breathe, like she was taking in water, but clearly there was nothing there. “W-What the ********?!” She managed to stutter out, growing more and more annoyed by the minute. At first she wanted to see if the white moon was amicable to talk with since it would do good to relay some information to her general in terms of approach. BUT, she was quickly finding that approach less and less appealing the more this stupid storm thing went on.

Honestly, she wasn't sure how her general did this kind of s**t.

Considering whoever it was aligned with Chaos, he didn’t feel as bad about it as he might have if it had been someone of Order. He did still feel bad, though, so he called out, “Sorry!” and tried to stop channeling his magic. Rather than stop, though, the magic seemed to surge in power before abruptly cutting off, and he felt his energy suddenly and all at once hemorrhage from his body.

Through gritted teeth he fell to one knee, eyes still up but the struggle was there. He could move, maybe even run, he just needed a few seconds to recover…

----------

As soon as the wave or whatever that was stopped, the tiny body cured in on itself slowly started to uncurl. Of course Salee heard the apology and it was strangely appreciated. Once she was on her feet, she walked up to the apparent giant with some caution. That was weird magic that she did not want to experience again thank you. As she got closer, her head tilted. Did using all that….Wind him? How? That stupid redhead senshi shes encountered seemed to be able to use his powers without any form of exhaustion so maybe it was different depending on the senshi?

Something to note for Chal later.

Once she was close enough and felt like she wasn't going to be swept out into the reservoir, Saleeite kept her hands behind her back but didn't make a move to try and wrap her rope around his neck. “So…….Sorry huh? Where are you from that your so giant?” He seemed taller than Polar which okay his height is an anomaly but this guy seemed like he was 6’8 or something.

----------------

Conversation was the best outcome given he wasn’t in a state where he could effectively defend himself, so he felt a bit of relief when whoever it was–and apparently they were a small human girl–simply walked over to him instead of lunging or something more aggressive. Not that that was anything to really go by, but given his current situation it was better to dwell on the positive.

He nodded slowly at her question. “Yes,” he started, taking slow breaths while he gathered his strength. “I meant to wave in greeting, not accost you with my magic without reason. My magic has been…strange…since I arrived here. I’ve been trying to understand why, but so far the answer has been elusive.” With a little shake of his head he proceeded to try standing, and while he was a little shaky he managed just fine.

“I am from a planet called Haik, which is my namesake as a senshi. It’s…vastly different from Earth,” he gestured at his scales and claws, and even his gills. “Far more water, for one, and far less pleasant weather.”

He offered the agent a smile and extended a hand. “And you are?”

-----------------

So he was an….Alien?!

Salee blinked then felt her eyes widen with fascination, smiling back and shaking his hand in return. “I'm Saleeite~” She beamed then sighed, and reached back, hitting his chest with her rope. “For making me think I was going to drown in a current or something. It's only fair.” She hoped that meant he would not try to actually use his powers on her…She would have to call in Polar or Chal if that was the case. “What is your planet like? Is it a vast ocean or maybe a chain of islands? Can you take people?” She would love to see one of these worlds one day.

---------------------

He understood fairness, so when she smacked him across the chest with her rope and explained, he only considered it for a moment before conceding with a little nod of his head and an expression that could only have meant, “When you’re right, you’re right.”

“Haik is…” he started to answer, then sort of scrunched his face together as he tried to find the right words to describe it right now. He’d long since only associated negative things with this world; it was completely devoid of life now that he wasn’t there, and imagining to try and describe it…

“I wish I could say good things, but my memory of it has only ever been silver linings up to a certain point.” Not that he would share much of that. Far too personal, he wasn’t even sure he wanted to share the depths of his despair with the one person he now considered a close friend, nevermind a total stranger.

“I can share a bit about what it was like when I was just a small boy,” he started to say, then gestured toward a bench nearby. “If you don’t mind lengthy stories at all.”
