Letting Off Steam (And Saving People, Too!)

[kazeninaru]

WHO: Haruka Tenoh and OPEN!
LOCATION: Mainly the outskirts of Agrabah, though other world locales are very likely if wanted!
TIME: Wednesday, all day
WHAT: Violence on random monsters
RATING: PG to PG-13.

Though she hadn't heard back yet on her application to the king's fighters, Haruka didn't imagine she needed permission to go smash Heartless. She'd done a little bit of it, when they wandered into whatever town she'd been exploring at the time and she happened to see them, but she hadn't specifically dedicated a day to hunting.

Today, she was doing just that. She had a hearty breakfast, transformed up, summoned her Space Sword, and headed out to see just what she could find to destroy that needed destroying.



((feel free to find her just leaving her home, out killing Heartless, in transit to another world, whatever! :) ))

Comments

I know the feeling. ^^

At the loving pat Hotaru smiled and proudly held up her purchase. Of course what is actually inside the carefully wrapped package can't be seen but she described it as if the protective wrap wasn't completely obscuring the object.

"I found the cutest lamp. It's very small and made of pink glass! I will have to show you when I unwrap it."

Hotaru was very excited by that idea too, showing her 'Haruka-papa' her great new lamp!
But after describing what could only be the beginnings of a new lamp collection Hotaru becomes a bit more serious.

"I could come to. The heartless can be difficult to deal with alone."

Talking about Uranus's plans to wander off and fight heartless on her own. Uranus could handle it of course but after having faced them several times herself it just felt wiser to Hotaru to make certain no senshi ending up fighting them alone.

might have to actually pay money, gasp XD

[kazeninaru]

Oh right, Hotaru's obsession with lamps. It was kind of cute, really, if a bit funny to see in her reborn state, and in another world entirely. The rest of the comment, though, was the part she replied to, after just a grin at Hotaru's enthusiasm over her hobby.

"I'm not afraid of a few little monsters," she assured the girl, still looking a little amused, but fond at the same time. "They aren't even as bad as a daimon, let alone a phage. But I don't mind company, if you're in the mood to smash some, with me." Usually Uranus liked to fight alone, but there were a few exceptions, obviously.

LOL! Maybe! ^_^

[wieldstheglaive]

She hurried inside to set her package down on the counter top and reappeared a moment later as Sailor Saturn.

"They aren't very strong physically but they can be trouble," she smiled, "So I will go with you."

As much to watch out for the other senshi as to spend some quality time with her. It sounds like it could be fun fighting heartless with Haruka papa.

[kazeninaru]

Waiting semi-patiently outside, Uranus gave a wolfish sort of grin at her foster-daughter's reappearance. Not that Hotaru was very daughterly as Sailor Saturn-- she was stronger than all of them put together, if as dangerous to her own person as to any enemies. Uranus didn't like thinking about it too much, to be honest.

"All right, then, what are we waiting for?" She pointed with her sword towards the desert. "Let's go kick some Heartless tail."

[wieldstheglaive]

"Hai!"

Sailor Saturn waited for Uranus to point the direction and followed along behind as fast as she could. She was no where near matching the running speed of the other senshi but she managed to at least keep her in sight until they made their way out to the desert.
The heartless were far more plentiful out in the wilds. Even as Saturn stopped to catch her breath the heartless began to draw closer, intrigued by the 'hearts' that had just arrived in their territory.

[kazeninaru]

Though her strongest power was obviously off-limits, Uranus expected the glaive to come in handy, and the silent wall. For the moment, she gave her foster-daughter another quick grin as she caught up-- she'd tried not to run too fast, since she had company who couldn't necessarily keep up and she didn't feel like leaving behind-- and she opened the activities with the bejeweled sword held high and slashed through the air.

"Space Sword Blaster!"

The arcs of searing hot energy flew unerringly at the nearest couple Heartless.

[wieldstheglaive]

Saturn twirled her glaive in dramatic fashion as she took up a position next to the other senshi and waited for the heartless who hadn't been hit with Uranus's first attack to draw in closer. They always seemed to attack in packs, a group drawing in from the front followed soon thereafter by a company slithering in from behind. The initial frontal attack group was devastated as Sailor Uranus's powerful attack cut through their ranks and destroyed many of the front line heartless. There would be more to fill in the gaps though. With the heartless there were always more waiting in the shadows.

As soon as the first shadow heartless rose up from the ground near her feet Saturn whacked it with the blunt end of her staff. Oddly enough it turned into a pseudo game of 'whack-a-mole' with each heartless that tried to grab onto her shoes receiving a similar strike to the head. Finally one of the creatures became bold enough to rise up from the sand in front of the younger senshi and attempt a more direct assault. This one met with the sharp end as the glaive cleaved through him causing the creature to disintegrate into those colorful supplies they so often left behind when they disappeared.

"Be careful Uranus! They are trying to grab us from below where it's difficult to fight them!"

[kazeninaru]

"Maybe with something that big," Uranus chuckled darkly. Her sword, though, was light and quick and much easier to wield in close quarters than a glaive. She kicked aside the one clinging to her own foot and charged the darker senshi.

"Space Sword Blaster!"

The arcs of energy hit the sand, rather than Saturn, and it flew up everywhere-- as did small monster-bits.

[wieldstheglaive]

Saturn jumped backward as Sailor Uranus's attack hit. The strike was no where near to hitting the smaller soldier but it did make the sand shift as it impacted the ground. To prevent sliding downhill into the little crater left behind where the heartless had been she had to leap to the safety of the more secure sand further up the dune.

She nodded to the Uranus once her footing was more stable. A 'thanks for the assist' kind of gesture.
