Fighting Evil by Moonlight

[lightthedarkness]

Who: Eternal Sailor Moon and whoever she comes to help
What: All the tabloid talks of attacks has made Sailor Moon decide to go on patrol at night
Where: All over the city and outside of Virgo HQ
When: Throughout the Week
Warnings: Minor violence



Option A: Rabid Fans Abound

It wasn't that she didn't understand that they needed to remain low key, but with the missing rescuers, all the tabloids of more and more violence, and the ocean attack on the label? Sailor Moon couldn't keep sitting on her hands. It went against everything she stood for. She had to protect everyone, even those of an alternate Earth.

So at night, with the moon as her guide, she kept watch on the streets. Her boots clicked along the gravel of a roof as she landed, her wings... she took a deep breath. It was good to have them back. She would be lying if she wasn't also doing this to keep her wings strong. She hadn't been able to fly in months and hadn't needed too for years back home.

She heard screams though and started running towards it, coming to a ledge and watching as a concert was being let out of a club. Oh, thank goodness. Just screams of joy.

Or well... it had started out that way. She watched as the fans broke the barriers and started going after the rock star. Her eyes narrowed. What was it with these fans!

She flew down and cut through the screams.

"LET THEM GO THIS INSTANT!" she ordered.


Option B: Breath of Fresh Air

She was flying again. She closed her eyes and while she didn't have any connection to the wind and sky like Uranus did, the moon was full overhead. She basked in the moonlight, feeling it wash over her. Not her moon, no, but so close to it. She closed her eyes as she spun in the air to soak it up.

It was warm and cool at the same time, welcoming soft light while all the other stars were blotted out by the light pollution.

She landed in a park and let out a breath, she glowed. She had soaked up the moonlight and the crescent moon on her brow glowed brightest. She tucked her wings in tight. Her head felt clear and she reached up to remove the transformation, only she stopped suddenly when she heard a twig snapped. She spun around.

"Show yourself!" she demanded.


Option C: The Tower Gates

She was looking at Virgo Tower and the calm ocean with her hands clenched at her side. In there was the one who took Rei from her, who took all those innocent people from their homes. She summoned the Tiare and lifted it... only for her shoulders to slump and her head to fall forward.

She couldn't... the were getting closer, and she couldn't attack because it would be the people she was trying to save who would face the consequences of her actions. She let her scepter fade from her hand and she just continued to look at the tower.

"Please just wait a little longer," she whispered.


Option D: Just an Average Girl

No longer Eternal Sailor Moon, just Usagi Tsukino a.k.a Serena Lapin now, she needed to head back home. She was just outside of the Virgo Tower and knew it was going to be a long way back. But she couldn't risk them following her as Sailor Moon when she flew. She'd have to walk.

"Not my smartest idea," she mumbled to herself as she started walking, her head bowed. So of course, she didn't notice when she ran smack into someone's chest.

She stumbled backwards and rubbed her nose.

"Oh, uh, I'm sorry, should look where I'm going," honestly she should.

Admittedly, J is plenty distracted himself. He hasn't seen Lapis in a while, and he's starting to get worried about her - just because she can handle herself on her own doesn't mean she should have to. But she hasn't been at the beach near Virgo for the past few nights - at least, not when he's been there. He may need to think up a new strategy for this.

He doesn't really register Usagi's tune until she literally runs into him. He stumbles backwards a step or two and reaches out a hand to steady her. "Don't worry about it. You okay?"

[lightthedarkness]

"Oh! J, hi! Sorry," she immediately said once she realized who she ran into. "I'm fine, but what are you doing out?" she asked concerned, which was a bit amusing to any onlooker as Usagi was clearly younger than J.

"Are you headed home?"

[eba02]

He huffs out a laugh. "Hang on, ain't it past your bedtime?" He's joking, yes, but point made.

"Probably, yeah." Hanging out at the beach isn't working out too well, and he's not up for looking for Pride intel via the club tonight. "What about you? Need someone to walk with you?"

[lightthedarkness]

"I'm seventeen!" she huffed, and not even bringing up the amount of battles she did at night. She pouted but then smiled, clearly not upset.

"Ah... just... observing some things. I wouldn't mind the company. But we moved, you know."

[eba02]

He hears the lie in her tune and lets it go. If Usagi wants to skirt around things, he's not going to poke at it; she'll tell him if she wants. For now, he falls into step with her. "Yeah, we probably need to do that too. Too many people who know where we are have gone missin'."

[lightthedarkness]

"We lost so many," she whispered, rubbing her arms not from the cold but more worried about what happened to them. "Do we... do we know what happened to them yet? Did they get to go home like 3 said they might have?"

[eba02]

Honestly, it's something he prefers not to think about, namely because he drives himself up the wall with worry whenever he does. "Can't say I have the answer for that one. Have you tried askin' the guys in charge?"

[lightthedarkness]

She shook her head. "I should, I just saw them, but I completely forgot to ask and who knows when I'll see them again and if I'll remember. I should tie a red ribbon around my finger or something."

[eba02]

"Okay, but how'll you remember to tie the ribbon?" He grins - he's joking, of course. "Actually, have you tried reachin' 'em over our network? They might pick up."

[lightthedarkness]

"Really? Well, don't wait on me though, if you need something from them you should try too." She didn't need something specifically per say, answers, certainly, but they were already pretty on edge about getting people those.
