Quote: The Calling (10) : A beautiful melody drifts on the air from somewhere far away. The vocals are in a language you don't quite recognize, but feel somehow familiar to you. Something about the song calls to you, but no matter where you go, the song seems to sound the same distance away. The longer it goes on, the more emotional the song becomes--and the more emotional you become. Something about the song is possessive and consuming, like it's all you can think of. Something resonates in you as the song crescendos, and the feeling is at its strongest--be they good, bad, anything, but suddenly the song fades, and there's only an emptiness inside of you. The feeling of loss is strong, and can leave someone feeling emotionally numb. Someone out there was calling to you, and you couldn't find them.
Her feet continued in the direction of the melody and the yearning that she felt…the way her heart was absolutely aching...
Obviously she didn’t notice the slimy aura of the corrupted Senshi, she didn’t realize anyone was around, honestly, at least until she ran bodily into him.
“Oh, I apologize–”
One look at the dark fabric, and the horrid holes in the forehead and chest, and Kemi knew that this…wasn’t going to go well.
She could be wrong but…at least the ache in her chest was lessened slightly by the sudden rush of dread. A win was a win?

The song that he was hearing…Sounded a bit familiar but also…Not. Truth be told, he was annoyed at the pull that it had on him and he wanted to be rid of it. He was frustrated, angry that he couldn't find the source of what was currently tormenting his psyche, something that was already fractured to begin with. He could feel the order signature nearby but he wasn't concentrated enough, too focused on the singing, which is why the senshi collided with his chest in the first place.
The corrupt blinked slowly, shaking his head to try and clear it.
But then the senshi spoke, and his crazed blue eyes became razor focused on the tall thing in front of him. Interesting…Another just like his moth and that squishy one he wanted to find again. As soon as she spoke, his hand moved quickly, latching onto her throat and squeezing. There was already black ink slipping through his teeth as he growled. “Shut. Up.” He HATED this! He couldn't think, couldn't focus and this stupid order thing just had the worst timing.
Good, he needed something to punch around for a bit.

Oh. Oh this. Suddenly turned from bad to worse. The Chaos ridden disgusting...terrror had her by the throat and it was hard to breathe.
Kemi knew…it wasn’t her first time being choked before, such was life back in the day but. She tried to keep her body as calm as possible. The biggest sign of her distress were the wings on her head, suddenly beating frantically, as though they could help her get out of this grip.
Focus. Get in a breath. And then the whispered word. “Deception.”
Kemi blew what little air she could right at the twisted, manic face of her attacker, watching as the mist flew.
Only then did she grab hold of the hands around her neck, trying to dig her nails into them.
Viva Viola Saying the name of her attack, Kemi blows outward and a fine mist extends as she does so. The mist can travel up to ten feet away from her and the magic can affect up to three people at this stage. The effects last for thirty seconds and can be used twice. When the mist touches a target, they are enveloped in a deceitful illusion where they feel as though they've been thrust into a moment in the future where they are suddenly in a situation where they are getting something they've always wanted. They will be completely immersed in the illusion, but if they are attacked they will snap out of it. Coming back to the present can be disorienting and leave targets with a sense of loss or failure, like their greatest desire was stolen from them.

As Villon squeezed, he wasn't expecting the senshi to blow something at him. Surprise turned into one of glee as he saw something hes always wanted in his life: His grandparents happy and retired, living back in their home of Samoa. His grandpa wasn't native Samoan but his grandmother was and she always talked about going back to the homeland where she could visit with his cousins, aunts and uncles. The grip he had on the senshi’s neck loosened as he lost himself in the vision, seeming peaceful and happy rather than the crazed maniac he was earlier.
He laughed while watching his grandparents dancing on the balcony of their new home, singing traditional songs while barbecuing. His wife, their children, and even his cousin Ryan with his husband and children were there. It was…Magical. However, as soon as the vision came, it disappeared. Villon was it with a loss so hard that he let out a howl of pain, the feeling of failure came next and it only served to make him angry. Since when would he EVER fail his family?! That was the one thing he vowed he would never do.
He was NEVER going to be like his druggie parents…He was NEVER going to allow his children to starve while he looked for his next high…He was NEVER going to allow his family to suffer as he had when he was growing up.
The corrupted senshi stumbled around, holding his head while black ink started to flow out of his mouth and down his neck. There was no way he was going to allow this grievance to last. Looking around for the little senshi he had in his grasp earlier [ahhh…His hands were bloody]. Villon spit out three inky tentacles in three directions, trying to calm down so he could find their signature.Quote: Super Sailor Scout Attack: Total Nightmare. This attack is the same as the first one except the shadow tendril becomes something more like a long tentacle that will fly out from his mouth. Instead of being able to spew out just one, he is now able to spew out three at three separate targets [ from about 8ft max], causing them to relive nightmares. The tentacles have to make contact and this attack will only last around 35 seconds and can only be used twice.

Oh. Oh this. This was truly not good. Bad, even. Very bad if she wanted to dwell on it. Thankfully, she was released and took that moment to scramble backwards, massaging her sore neck and coughing, staring at the other Senshi in abject horror. Truly, she was worried for him. There was clearly. Something wrong. Something absolutely and utterly unbalanced, maybe even beyond the normal poison that Chaos brought but.
He had some…substance coming from his mouth, and as he spat it, she scrambled backwards again, eyes wide and horrified. “You’re ill.” The words came out as nearly a croak and she shook her head. “You’re so very ill. Why do you allow the Chaos…why…would you want this?”
Kemi had no idea what his magic did, but she was horribly grateful that she didn’t get hit with it, and after realizing that she was being an absolute fool, she turned on her heel and ran, as fast as she could and went so far as to power down so that hopefully he couldn’t follow her by her power signature. It was risky but. At this point, it was all she could think of. If she…would have done more. Could have done more. He clearly needed help. He clearly was some kind of victim to chaos that…oh god.
He was terrifying, and he was someone she didn’t want to think about ever again, if she could help it.
