Characters: "Sailor Venus", aka Galactica!Sailor Venus, and OPEN.
Content: Minako's doppelganger is herself from the rather recent past, during a moment she'd rather forget happened. Unfortunately, "Sailor Venus" isn't exactly going away anytime soon. And armed with Minako's memories of the Satellite, she's going to have some fun with her light selves' new friends now that she's out and about ~~in the name of Galaxia of course~~...
Location: Everywhere
Time of day: All throughout the week.
Warnings: While Venus cannot access her powers, violence is going to be inevitable with her.

The advent of evil selves had brought on a flurry of shock, fights and many many Cambot postings about the creatures. It was quite clear that, in a sense, she wasn't alone. Others like her roamed around, causing chaos and confusion.

But, in another sense, she was alone. She was unlike all the others. She sprung fully formed, born from blood and violence once before. Existence was nothing new for her. Nor was her loathing for everyone who was not like her. She sensed only one person like her, her so-called good self, a sailor crystal whose power was muted.

Everyone else was trash. All piled together, all huddled and hoping their lives meant something. In the end, they didn't. Her first rebirth under Galaxia had taught her that. Even her other self, in a way, was now part of that trash. Venus could justify it. Minako had a choice to become something greater, to create a glorious new history, just as Galaxia had tried. Instead she rejected that chance. She, too, was expendable, like all these other mortal bags of slowly-rotting flesh.

She wouldn't destroy them just yet, though. She could, but she wouldn't. She was Venus, after all. The unattainable goddess who played with the hearts of men and women, destroying those who got to close in the end. The fun-loving one. And playing with these people? Promised so much fun...

Clearly, the doppelganger was amused. Roxas was not. He could only assume the doppelganger was amused because she thought she had an advantage. And frankly, he wasn't so sure she didn't.

Who's doppelganger was he dealing with anyway? The gray tones made it a little harder to tell, but it clicked eventually.

'Oh fun.' He would have preferred to run into a doppelganger whose abilities he could guess just by who they were a copy of, like Sora's or Riku's doppelganger. All he knew about Minako was that she could be a bit ditzy. That said nothing of possible fighting ability. He wasn't concerned with magic since no one on the satellite had access to their magic.

"You know, just for reference, I'm not so good at reading lips." He's also not so good at being patient with hostile entities. Realizing the doppelganger wasn't going to make the first move, Roxas did, charging in quickly with a horizontal slash aimed at the doppelganger's middle. He didn't expect to connect on the first attack and was prepared to dodge her retaliation... depending on what that retaliation was.

Not good at reading lips, hmm? Perhaps, then, he'd understand action.

She was out of the way of Roxas' attack in almost no time, bringing to him a ground sweep towards his legs.

Oh, he understood action, all right. And he understood that this action may have been a little hasty on his part as that sweep knocked his legs out from under him. Magic would have been a very nice thing to have right about now. The next best thing was quick reflexes. Roxas may have ended up flat out, but he was able to roll to the side and get some distance between himself and the doppelganger to get some room to get to his feet before she followed up the assault.

"Tch." This time he was going to stick to his earlier decision of waiting to see what his opponent was going to do.

At this, Venus simply looked at Roxas, putting her hands on her hips.

What's the matter, Roxas? Afraid of little old me~?

Oh, hands on the hips, huh? That was a gesture that could either be condescending or patronizing. Given the context and just who it was coming from, Roxas assumed the former. It was obvious the shades held little to no respect for the originals.

He wasn't sure how or why, but he did pick up what she said this time and it amused him slightly, "Afraid? Hmm... maybe this place didn't rob everyone of their powers, I would be." Okay, maybe 'afraid' was the only word he made out, but his point stood.

Meanwhile in the shadows, watching this exchange with mild interest, was another shade. And it was debating whether it wanted to jump in on this fight or go find Minako...

I wasn't talking about me. The creature laughs. My other self is quite infatuated with you, isn't she?

Well that was a little unexpected, if he was reading right. Or not. After the Christmas party...

But he really didn't want to rise to the bait. Yes, he did find out Minako had a crush on him. He wasn't sure yet what to do about it, since anyone having a crush on him was a new thing for him, but he was reasonably certain that the only reason the doppelganger was bringing it up was to cause trouble.

"What has that got to do with anything beside you trying to mess with my head?"

Meanwhile, the watcher in the shadows decided he might find better entertainment elsewhere and headed off. Maybe the ditz with the crush, if he could find her?

Oh...you'll understand soon enough. the teeth in Venus' grin glisten as she disappears back into the shadows. It is dangerous to have the love of a cursed woman, after all...

"What? Hey!" Roxas would have very much liked to make sure that this doppelganger didn't get to anyone else, but she was gone before he could really do anything about it...

In the mean time, Roxas's shade was off searching for a certain love struck young woman...
