Mack Rocksteady
Jublife City
Still on the streets
The Weavile was about to complete her Blizzard attack. Suddenly, a sniper sniped from out of nowhere and hit the Weavile. Mack didn't expect the shot. He thought for a few seconds, then he remembered the mysterious man who he chased just a few minutes ago. He then put the pieces together, and concluded that the same man he chased shot at the Weavile.

Mack decided to leave the Weavile on her own for now. He then thought of a really weird thought. He'd go up to one of the buildings and do a somersault. That would definitely cause a minor earthquake. Mack rolled out again, ignoring whether there was anything in his way. At long last, he reached a building.

Mack climbed the building, though it was a hard task. He couldn't roll up the stairs, so he had to walk. Being such a bulky pokemon, Mack had a hard time. Finally, after numerous attempts, Mack successfully climbed the building. However, when he peered at his side, he saw a human. The human was beside a Flareon, no other than the General himself.

Mack knew he had to do something. Acting on impulse, he quickly used Rock Throw on the human, hoping to stun the human long enough for him to rescue the General. If this fails, he knew that the human would be no match for a hulk of rock like him.

Wade
Jubilife City
Roads of Jubilife; battlefield


"Thanks for the info. You should stay clear from the central part of the battle. Try to remain around cover as long as possible before proceeding. Use the rubble around." Hector replied and Wade nodded, saluting at him with one of his front paws before leaving the PR army, but then after a while he returned again. His eyes squinted and he saw rows of Soldiers blocking their way, holding guns and riffles. Wade looked at the nearby Rhydon and had an idea.

"Lift me up to the air, Rhydon. As high as you can." Wade commanded in a powerful tone as he focused his inner energy, his power channeling inside his little Shiny Umbreon body as the Rhydon grabbed him with his hands and flung Wade into the air above him. Wade was flung five meters high and he somersaulted in the air. When his head was facing the soldiers again, he stopped spinning.

Everything was in slow motion for a few seconds as the soldiers aimed at him and fired. But the bullets that were flying to him were soon gone - Wade generated a large black ball of growing energy and suddenly a large black Hyper Beam was shot towards the soldiers. His vision was blocked by his own beam, controlling the direction as he moved his head, the beam changing its direction as well.

Most of the front line soldiers were blasted away, but the Hyper Beam wasn't too deadly - it was afternoon, and the ones at the back fled. But at least they were scared off.

"Now's your chance." Wade smirked as he landed back onto the ground and watched as the army ran towards the HR base, barging into it, taking over. But where were the other Human defenses? Where were they?

Leaving the army he once again walked around town by himself, hiding behind bodies and rubble on the way. Just then there was a large boom, and Wade looked at the roof. Luke was there, and he was freezing people once again. Good little ice cream, Wade nodded, smiling as he took out a couple of Humans on the way. He ran up the stairs and stood beside Luke, "Need any help?" and blasted the nearest human with a swift shadow ball.

Elixa
Jubilife City

The Pichu and the Raichu both dropped dead in front of her. Puzzled, she moved close to see the cause. She leaned down, picking up the Pichu. It had a small hole in it's side. It had been shot. She looked over to find Althalos with a sniper. But... why? Deciding it didn't matter, she dropped the Pichu and got prepared for another ambush.

Just before she went after another Pokemon, something made her turn around. She turned to face the same Charizard that carried Althalos away. She jumped backward immediately, her hands in a fighting position. She still held her dagger in her hand, but since she'd already used the poison off of it to kill that Hondour, she knew she'd have to think on her feet. Something she wasn't good at.

She weighed her options for a second. She could risk getting her vile out and tipping the dagger. No, the Charizard was to fast to let her do that. Or, she could just fight. That seemed like her best shot at the moment.

The human was fast and dodged out of the way of her attack. She roared out in frustration and shifted her wings to where she could face the human again. However, she knew she couldn't keep on flying forever. Lydia had a target now. A neon red light began cracking out of the illusion, and shattered to reveal her true form. She had an evil smile on her face.

"Remember me?" she asked.

But the Zorua didn't dare wait for an answer, because immediately she set up a Protect and ran at the girl, smashing her back. In doing so, the shield immediately was disabled. Lydia forgot that she had lost power with the illusions and the fall. Hopefully it wouldn't slow her down too much, but by now she knew her time was limited, and she couldn't let that dagger get a critical hit.

Althalos Fizen
Jubilife City
Plane Wreck building roof


Althalos shivered as a gust of snow blew around the city. Apparently the ice cream hadn't died. Althalos pulled his knees to his chest and picked up the unconscious flareon, wishing he had his hoodie. When the wind died down, Althalos stood up, sniper in hand and went to the edge. He saw something pretty scary: the temporary HR HQ being overrun. He fired a few napalm rounds into the crowd of pokemon, and hoped he wouldn't be seen.
Althalos looked around and saw both the knife chic and the zorua about to fight it out. Althalos thought about tranquilizing the Zorua just to get on the girls' good side, but decided against it. Despite not knowing the zoruas' name, he had sort of grown attached. Instead, against his better judgement, he put in the tranquilizer clip and aimed at the small girls arm. She was already trying to kill him, and at least him tranquilizing her wouldn't count as total treason, and a tranquilizer was a tranquilizer, so it wouldn't do anything weird to her. With the silencer on, the dart made a quiet "whoosh" as it left the barrel and the dart lodged in the girls fore arm; she quickly collapsed. When the Zorua looked up at him, Althalos just gave her a thumbs up and then went back to the flareon and started stroking his back again.

"Remember me?" the Pokemon asked. Elixa was puzzled, but didn't dare show it on her face. Her puzzlement quickly got her knocked over, though, as the Pokemon ran at her.

As soon as she stood up, regained her balance and got to her dagger, she fell over again. "What the hell?!" She yelled, looking up at Althalos who was grinning at the Zorua. There were a great deal of words that ran through her mind as she attempted to control her tranquilized body, willing it to get up.

Mark Vargas
Jubilife City
Free-falling.


The wind was whizzing past Mark's ears as he fell. Mark blocked out the gunshots and screams while he thought about what both sides were fighting for. What was mark fighting for? Was he fighting for things to go back to the way that it was, That one didn't seem logical, things never went back to the way they were after war. Mark even knew people have been abusive to pokemon, but war was never a good thing, even for soldiers. Was he fighting for his own survival? Was he fighting for the survival of the human race? He was snapped out of his thoughts by napalm rounds hitting the roof of the building, igniting the rooftop with all its occupants. that had to come from no other than althalos. He was the only one other than mark to have napalm rounds. Mark hit a group of dead soldiers, full force. "errrrrghhhh. Mother Fu**ing bi*ch, ahhhahrhrhr". Mark pushed the 'SPEAK' button on his radio and sent out a one word message. "Help!"

Lydia

Her opponent had just struggled back onto her feet, the dagger grasped tightly in her hand. Lydia took a step back when all of a sudden a tranquilizer smacked the girl in the arm, forcing her to loose balance again.

"What the hell?!" the girl cried out.

She looked up to where the dart had came from, and saw Althalos grinning and giving her a thumbs up. Wow. Didn't see that coming. Hopefully the man wouldn't get in trouble for shooting the girl, but Lydia smiled back and watched as the man disappeared from her view. She then faced the human in front of her. The girl was fighting to stay awake, and was obviously weakened by Athalos' shot. Would the Zorua really end up killing her? Served her right for killing that Pikachu from earlier...but suddenly things didn't feel right. The anger from before was lessening. So was the thought of revenge.

They seemed to be having a staring contest, until the pokemon approached the girl, biting the tranquilizer out of the human's arm.

"Whats your name?" she asked, thinking she might as well get some information out of her before she passed out, let alone get stabbed by the dagger she still had in her hands..

Ali Krista
Jubilife City
The streets


Ali sprinted through the alleyway, his shock gun preceding him. The attacks he'd endured so far had barely broke the surface, his worst wound a nasty burn on the back of his right hand.
The damned Camerupt owes me a new pair of gloves. Ali thought angrily, before shaking his head. His priorities were out of order.

Without any warning, a powerful force hit Ali in the small of his back, sending him face first into the wall opposite. That's what I get for not paying attention. He cursed under his breath, turning to face his attacker. Opposite him stood a Wartortle, rearing to attack. The look in its eyes was one of pure hatred.
"Ah, water." Ali smirked. "Just up my street."

The Pokemon said nothing, but held back its head for another Hydro Pump. Ali chuckled darkly, and pulled the trigger on his shock gun. The volts hit the Water type below the neck, and it was sent reeling. That should do it.

Ali turned away, the Wartortle's body smoking slightly from the impact of the electricity. He wasn't certain if it was dead, but Ali knew it wasn't about to get up and fight him, and that was good enough.


Ali stopped walking, the sound of padded footsteps ahead; someone else was coming into the alley. Without hesitation, Ali jumped behind a stack of boxes, drawing his knife. Guerilla tactics were always a favourite of his. He knelt with baited breath, unable to see his potential attacker. For all he knew, they could've walked b-

Suddenly the boxes caved in, a four-legged beast in their place. Ali looked up and recognised the X-Ray eyes of a Luxray. His breath froze in his chest. Ali raised his knife, but hesitated at the sight of his old friend. The Luxray however, had no such qualms as it pounced onto his old master's chest.
Ali was knocked to the ground, his thorax under immense pressure. The creature stared at him with absolute venom, before diving in for a Crunch attack.
Ali was left with no choice as he raised his butterfly knife, thrusting it into the Luxray's chest. The pokemon had already made contact with Ali's neck, but quickly withdrew as it gasped in pain. Ali twisted the knife as he remembered his parents, dragging it through the flesh. The Luxray fell down as he removed the weapon, and Ali rolled from underneath him.

Without so much as looking back at his best friend, Ali walked away, absent-mindedly rubbing the old scar on his arm as he went.

ElectricScyther June 21st, 2011 1:21 PM

Khufu woke to the feel of his back being stroked. He felt a large piece of cloth wrapped around his mouth, and the pain was still strong in his body.

The first thing I'll do once we win this war will be destroying every James Bond movie in existence, he thought bitterly as his tongue felt around the inside of his mouth to feel broken teeth and a few missing ones.

He looked up at Althalos and wasn't sure to trust him. As a test, he asked, "Why did you save me, the enemy general, from near death? You could have just killed me."

Elixa
Jubilife City

Elixa was fighting to stay awake and the urge to call out "Traitor!" to Althalos, but something stopped her. Maybe the fact that he saved her life earlier. But why would he do that and then tranquilizer her now? She couldn't bare a logically thought as she continued to fight unconsciousness, needing to use her energy towards that.

She looked up at the Pokemon, and they starred at each other for what seemed like a while, though Elixa was sure it was maybe a few minutes at most.


The Zorua began walking towards her, and Elixa mustered the rest of her strength to inch away. The Pokemon caught up with ease, and bit the tranquilizer out of her arm. Elixa quickly stopped struggling, but didn't release the hold on her dagger. The Pokemon seemed like it wasn't interested in killing her right now, but she didn't want to risk it. Suddenly, the Zorua asked, "Whats your name?".

Elixa grunted, spitting blood out of her mouth. She'd busted her lip when she fell earlier. "Elixa." She answered, her voice, meant to be a stable monotone, came out soft and strained. It wasn't long after that that everything around her went black.

Hector Arcturus
Jubilife City
Battlefield

Chaos. Utter chaos. That was what was happening on the battlefield at the moment. Hector had been appointed Commander recently, and didn't have enough time to coordinate his plan of attack as much as he'd like. This battle was mostly Khufu's doing. And although he wasn't doing a bad job, he felt it could have been much cleaner. Snipers on the rooftops and advanced positions shouldn't have been cause for a frontal assault. Hector would have to deeply look into their next battle.

Pokemon and Humans were fighting all across. Hector himself had seen his share of the action, but at the moment he was a shadow figure. He was chosen to lead. It was time he do what was asked of him. It was time for Hector to lead. But not with words of glamor or morale. He would let his actions do the talking. But not before a quick word of action.

"Secure the HR base. Surround it. They aren't escaping. No human lives today." He said to the Pokemon by him. They went to spread the word.

Hector lunged forward at his top speed at the entrance to the base, where other were now going through as well. He rammed at human soldiers attempting to fire upon him and his allies. Hector didn't bother finishing each soldier off. He was convinced his allies also coming in would finish them off. He lunged at another group of humans, knocking them off their feet, killing one from the hit itself. Hector didn't bother going after these either. They would be dead before they could recover and stand up, courtesy of his soldiers. Ruthless and not looking back, Hector charged up the stairs, his comrades charging in behind them. Many fell around him, not just inside here, but on the streets as well.

But there plan was a frontal assault, and changing that plan in the middle of the battlefield would be stupid, so Hector would go with it. To the max. They wanted a frontal force attack, they got it, with nothing held back.

On another floor, Hector charged forward. He noticed a lone scientist looking human among the others he had knocked down, still standing in the corner, his hands up.

"P-please, have mercy!" He said. Hector charged right at him, hitting him with a Giga Impact. He heard his next snap as he hit the ground, motionless.

"Sorry, not today." Hector responded to the lifeless body. He continued up to the next level.

Khufu scanned the battlefield as he waited for a response from Althalos, who seemed a bit confused. As he did, he got up and let the question he'd asked, in its stifled tone, echo in his mind. He still felt weak, and was amazed he'd survived, but that wasn't an excuse for a lack of action.

Suspicious of the human who was standing next to him, Khufu ignored the question and answer and instead broke free of his hands, taking a few steps away from him and watching the battle unfold.

Althalos Fizen
Jubilife City
Plane Wreckage


The Flareon stood up, asking Althalos why he had saved him. Althalos couldn't really think of an answer, but used what he had told himself. "Well for one, you're the general. Not only would it be useful to have you captured, but I'm having a human problem of my own. I was hoping your capture would work as a deal so that what ever I did would be forgiven. As for why I personally didn't kill you, I have no reason to kill you. As far as I know, you haven't done anything to me. And just so you know, I just tranquilized one of my own race to save your zorua spy." Althalos was silent for a moment as the PR general stood near the edge of the building. "Be careful, your jaw is in pretty bad condition. If I had any citrus berries or potions I'd give them to you, but I don't. I tried to stop the bleeding with that piece of cloth. Let me know if you need help getting it off." Althalos said and leaned against the wrecked fuselage, subconsciously longing to pet the pokemon again. Right before he dozed off he looked at the general. "If you ever come across a Typhlosion with blue eyes and that responds to the name of Blitz, I'm sincerely begging you, please let me know, find me or get some way of contacting me. I have a score to settle that involves the murder of a newborn. And also, another FYI, I would gladly become friends with any pokemon that isn't that Typhlosion, no matter who or how many they killed." Althalos muttered and closed his eyes, knowing full well that the general could escape.

"Elixa." the girl answered, just before she passed out. She wouldn't be asleep for long but she would be dead if Lydia left her lying around. Then again, she couldn't stay asleep for too long. With a small sigh, the Zorua changed back into her Charizard form. For a war, she wasn't doing much fighting; just carrying around people, which made her wonder what side she was fighting for. Althalos was definitely a friend of hers by now, but this girl...she didn't even know her. Lydia found her stabbing a Pikachu to death. And yet, now she found herself helping that exact same person. More thoughts came to her mind as she wondered what to do with the passed out human. Probably take her back to the base.

Lydia flapped her dragon-like wings and soon gained enough air for her to fly around with. The Charizard body was heavy, and it didn't help that she was carrying 'Elixa' with her. By the time she arrived at the HR Base, she saw many pokemon surrounding it. The city was being taken over, and bodies littered the streets- pokemon and non-pokemon alike. She heard talks about total domination, including the words "no human lives today". Lydia let out a low grumble in frustration and turned the other way, searching for Althalos.

Flying towards the plane, her wings gathered enough strength to push her to the top. Landing, almost falling on the roof, she positioned herself next to Althalos but not in his way. Lydia was still holding onto the girl, but set her down for a moment. She focused her mind, speaking telepathically with him.

"Your going to get killed if you don't leave this city soon," she said, her voice sounding serious and worried in his head, "Also, what should I do with your little girlfriend?"

Lydia looked to see Khufu, also injured but alive. His mouth appeared to be bleeding. "Just great" she thought to herself.

Althalos had been asleep for less than a minute when a loud thump woke him up. A charizard was standing in front of him, and he was scared for a second, but he sat up when he heard the voice of the zorua in his head. "My girlfriend?! Don't offend me." Althalos muttered. "To tell you the truth, I don't think she's smart enough to survive here. She tried to hit me with a knife while I was on the TV station and her on the ground." Althalos laughed. "But you can't really take her back to Sunnyshore. I'll figure out how to get out of this situation at some point. This is somewhat of a role reversal now, I'm in the position that you were at our HQ, so just leave her here for now." Althalos thought for a moment and then asked, "By the way, I never got your name."

"My girlfriend?! Don't offend me," He said aloud, "But you can't really take her back to Sunnyshore. I'll figure out how to get out of this situation at some point. This is somewhat of a role reversal now, I'm in the position that you were at our HQ. Just leave her here for now."

Lydia nodded, glad she wouldn't have to carry the human around anymore. It was chaotic down on the ground, and here it was at least a little more peaceful. She allowed her illusion to break, and her fur appeared to grow back as the scales disappeared. The Zorua was done running around for the day. She laid down, watching all of the pokemon as they swarmed through the streets of Jubilife. Maybe her actions weren't appropriate for her role in the PR, but she didn't care, even if Khufu was watching her.

"By the way, I never got your name," Althalos said to the Zorua. She looked back at him. Weird. They had bumped into each other so many times, and she had already learned his back when they first met.

"Its Lydia," she replied back, watching the clouds roll by as she tried to get her mind off the war.

Heading Southwest towards Eterna


Alex was awaken from his slumber by the leader of his Unit barking orders. " Wake up and get moving," the Lieutenant yelled at the Troops. Alex got up out of his corner and brushed himself off. Great, Alex thought, I am almost at the action. Alex turned on his flashlight and followed the Lieutenant. The cave was cold,rocky and dark, but Alex knew that his time in Mt.Coronet would be short-lived. Alex wasn't focused on where he was walking and stumbled down a small ledge. Alex quickly shot back up and kept walking forward. Alex saw many caverns going in many directions, but saw the one that matters. He saw a light coming from a tunnel which he guessed must be the exit. Alex followed his Unit out into the open grass. Alex breathed in the warm air. Here I am, Alex thought, a warmer place. But Alex knew why he was down south. To fight the PokeRebels. Alex glanced up and saw the buildings of Eterna on the Horizon. Alex felt a burst of energy and ran towards the front of the group. Alex crossed the bridge and within no time at all, alex was in Eterna City. The Lieutenant led the Unit over to the Barracks, where Alex believed he would be spending his time until orders were given to advance into enemy territory.

"Lydia. Hmm." Althalos repeated. He had always had a somewhat hard time remembering names.
He actually felt calm, despite the screams of humans and pokemon alike. He was just glad to be around pokemon who's first priorities weren't to kill him. He reached out and scratched the zoruas ears, then got up and tied up the knife girl around the ankles and wrists with a length of rope from the wreckage when he noticed the other pokemon looking at him. "What? She's my human problem, she tried to kill me." Althalos shrugged. He dragged her limp body into the shelter of the fuselage, made sure she didn't have any more knives on her and then sat down about 10 feet away. He took a drink from his canteen and started singing "Paradise City" quietly to himself and closed his eyes once more, hoping to actually get some sleep. At least if he was killed in his sleep he wouldn't feel it.

Mark Vargas
Jubilife City
Hidden in a pile of bodies


Consciousness was leaving Mark's body as he moved to appear as one of the dead soldiers in the pile. It wasn't long after that mark passed out, a mix of exhaustion and extreme pain.

Mark woke up to a soldier yelling "Get up trooper! The battles not lost yet!" at him while yanking him up by his vest. Mark saw he was a high rank and gave a stiff salute and asked for orders. The officer told him to go back to HQ and get the RPG-7 from the arms locker, he also said " HQ has been overrun by hostile troops." He handed mark a 9mm pistol seeing as all of marks weapons were destroyed now. Mark was escorted to the outside of the base where he entered through a vent. The vents were barley holding his weight and as he got over a hallway, they broke. The vent crushed an alakazam when it broke, Mark continued sliding down the shaft, shooting a pikachu at the other end investigating what happened. Mark was now in the base, but didn't have the element of surprise anymore. He headed straight for the armory, which was shockingly not gaurded and grabbed a new backpack. On a desk across the room sat one of the most deadly weapons ever invented the RPG-7. Walking over and picking it up, he examined the weapon and looked for the ammo. Mark found a box, it said 50 RPG rounds on it, but it was locked up tight, he didn't have the time to pick the lock. Luckily there were ten rockets next to the box. Mark wasted no time packing them in the bag. Now he needed to leave, The front door was a good way. Vargas ran to the door rpg on shoulder and out the building. The trooper squad was gone, "F**K, what am i supposed to do now" he whispered to himself. Again he headed for the rooftops.

The Blizzard froze Jack completely over, from head to toe. Silence was about to go finish the job when she heard a click behind her. She ducked just as a blast of fire shot over her head. She spun around while still on the ground and launched herself into the human standing there holding a flamethrower. He tumbled to the ground and Silence dug her claws into the man's shoulders than pulled them out, only to plunge them back in with ice covering them. The man screamed as the freezing cold ice touched raw flesh. He passed out from the pain and Silence killed him quickly.

She looked around and noticed that the pokemon seemed to have the upper hand in this battle when she spotted someone on a rooftop getting ready to use what looked like rocket launcher, but than again she was no expert. Completely forgetting about the frozen HR commander, she started toward the building, dodging past the main battlefield so as not to get caught up in a fight.

"RPG support available to anyone who ask to a limit of 10 shots." Mark said over his radio on all used channels. The battle wasn't going well, at all, the most they could hope for was a Pyrrhic victory, which was still un-likely. Loading a grenade in the launcher, he took aim at the biggest thing he could find, which was multiple pokemon taking cover behind a dead steelix. Again on his radio he yelled "INCOMING!" and fired. The grenade glided easily towards the garrisoned troop, impacting on the corpse of the steelix. The explosion was nothing less than massive, chunks of pokemon, concrete, rock and dirt flew everywhere. Mark yelled at the body parts. "That will teach you to try to take over OUR city, hahaha!" The door to the roof mark was on suddenly jerked open to reveal the weavile that mark shot. "Really, right now, why do these things always happen when i just start having fun." Pulling out his handgun he took aim at the chest, making it look like he was going for a head shot. "This for my rifle, and ruining my sniper spot on the other roof." Mark pulled the trigger and ran straight at the pokemon tackling it down the stairs.

Within moments of coming out onto the roof, Silence found a gun pointing at her. Without hesitation, the Weavile rolled to the side and sent a Dark Pulse in the humans direction as she got to her feet. She gritted her teeth as a jolt of pain went up her leg and focused on darting toward the man as her claws glowed purple. She whipped her claws out in front of her when she was in range and went for his heart. Just before impact, her leg buckled and the attack him a few inches below where she had been aiming. The force was enough to knock them both over. The human only fell on his back but Silence tumbled a bit further until she was to close to the edge for comfort. She started to get back up but fell with a yelp when her leg wouldn't support her. 'If my leg is broken he is soooo going to pay,' she thought as she glared at the human. How she was going to do it in her condition? She had no clue.

Luke Van Eyla
Jubilife City
Battlefield, war and etc.


After Luke was satisfied by the damage done, he swooped to join near the core of the battling action. Bullets from humans rippled through the air, and he jeered out, "Who shot that? Even a Slowpoke couldn't miss. Hah!" Sizzling his creamy scoop with energy, Luke beamed out radiant azure bolts of crackling frost. Redirecting his Ice Beam down, he swept across the roads and they were covered in a layer of glossy ice.

Just then, Luke saw his old friend the Umbreon, levitating upwards and reaching the same altitude as him. Just as Wade opened his mouth to speak, a barrage of bullets were targeted at the Vanillite. Deftly, the ice-cream cone solidified up metallic panels and casually reflected off the gun bullets. In the midst of the rattling ruckus, Luke made out the words "Need any help?". Chuckling playfully after he deflected the attack, Luke remarked, "You were saying?" Giving a sly wink, Luke bobbed off the roof and gracefully floated several feet above the streets of Jubilife that was brimming with blood, rage and an overall vendetta. Deeply exhaling in, Luke prepared a huge gust of icy wind and blasted a strong sweeping shivering force of air. Troops of human pawns were sent tumbling backwards and their weapons malfunction to the extreme temperatures.

Then a significantly ear-splattering explosion perked the vanilla cone's attention and icily, Luke's gaze swept over where the snipe had originated from and found himself staring at one on a roof.

"That will teach you to try to take over OUR city, hahaha!" Your city? Heheh, I'm afraid that's no longer the case.

Luke then notice the same Weavile barging right alongside the human sniper, baring her attack. The man wielded one of those noisy man-made items called 'guns' and aimed a shot at the Weavile's chest. Luke lunged forward to the roof while trying not to see the fall of a comrade. But he was pleasantly surprised. The Weavile evaded the gunshot and retaliated with her own talents of darkness. However both sides fell over and as the Weavile was getting up, she yelped sharply. The Vanillite urgently flew down and landed onto the roof, checking the leg which seemed to be the problem. There were no visible injuries, perhaps the condition was internal. Then, he quickly remembered the other sniper's presence and spun his cream cone body to face the foe.

Eying the quarry warily, Luke trembled as he pursed his lips, unleashing a draft of cold vapor at the sniper. "I'm afraid the game has changed." The Vanilllite announced, with an added casual taunt in his voice. "Human."

Deep in thought as Althalos spoke, Khufu tried to recall all the Typhlosions in the PokeRebel organisation. Blitz... hmm. Don't remember anyone at all named Blitz, but then I don't know everyone in PokeRebel. His eyes squinted, as they often did when trying hard to remember something, and he gazed off at nothing in particular.

Looking up at Althalos, who now was in a conversation with Lydia, Khufu sensed calm. Maybe it was the relaxed eyes, or the soft voice, or whatever. The human laid down and closed his eyes. Now would be the perfect time for Khufu to make his getaway, but something inside him disagreed. Maybe it was that he had found a human who wasn't talking to him as enemies in a war would.

Khufu shook his head in submission to his thoughts and laid down on the ground, trying to figure out why some humans could be absolute idiots, and yet others were actually okay. He knew he never would know.

The streets


Ali wandered the streets, stepping over the bodies of his men. It seemed disrespectful, but nothing could recover the dignity the HR were very close to losing. He reached for his talkie with unsteady hands.

"Jack? I think it's almost over."
There was no answer from the radio, and dread seeped into Ali's chest.
"Jack. Do you read me? There's too many, I think we need some serious tactical genius here or we're about to lose everyone."

Again, there was no answer.
"Goddamnit, Jack!" Ali shouted, his knuckles whitening on the transceiver. "I can't run a battle on my own!"
The radio remained silent, and so Ali thrust it in his pocket, standing to face a pack of three Mightyena.

Man, this battle is chaos. Why the hell am I in charge here?!
He picked up his radio again, speaking to all troops. "Sincerely, I wish you all the greatest of luck."

The general yelled and ran to the Mightyena, brandishing his bloody knife. "Bring it, dogs! I've nothing to lose!"

Alex stepped inside the large barracks that was once the City's Gym. A trooper there pointed to a section of the building for the Unit to sleep in. Alex followed the Unit over to the room. Alex stepped in the room, found a bunk and sat down in the bed. Alex looked around the room to find it crowded with people. Alex heard the door open. " Lieutenant Burns, your Unit is to head south to Oreburgh City. Humvee transportation is available for your use," the Trooper barked. " Let's head out," Lieutenant shouted as Alex and his fellow soldiers walked out of the barracks. Alex walked over to a Humvee and climbed in the backseat. Other soldiers climbed into the Humvee and the Humvee started moving. Alex clutch his M4 and looked out of the window. At least the drive is short, Alex thought as the Humvee hit a bump on to the Bicycling road. The road was worn out and in bad condition, but it still served its purpose. Alex heard a crumble. The front of the Humvee pointed downwards as his view became cluttered with steel and cement. He heard a smash, and after that, everything went black.

The weavile was now charging mark, claws ready to kill. He walked back firing all the shots in the clip at his attacker, but missed each one. "F**k my life, my aim sucks today." The pokemon seemed to trip right in front of him and missed her target, slicing through his armor. Both of them fell but the weavile tumbled quite close to the edge. Mark took off his vest to find 3 slashes across his chest. "God damn, you totaled my vest and my rifle now, give me one good reason not to push you over the edge now." He started to get up when a familiar ice cream cone floated up and checked on the pokemon who fell trying to stand back up. Facing mark he blew a cold vapor at him. Mark dropped back to the ground getting his helmet ''iced''. He took it off throwing it at the cone for it to just smash into pieces. Mark rolled over and grabbed the rpg, but the clips were too far away. Standing up he charged the vanillite holding the weapon like a baseball bat. Vargas swung the weapon with a loud grunt, hitting the ice cream off the building. Mark's bag was a small ways across the roof, so he walked over to grab it trying to ignore the extreme bleeding and pain. The bag seemed heaver now. He reached in the bag and pulled out his only other pistol clip and loaded it in the gun. Walking back over to the weavile, he pointed the gun at its head, but put it back down. "Your not even worth the bullet." With that mark walked across the rooftops. He got to the building across from althalos. He could walk down and up the other building to get over there but it was to dangerous. Instead he rain off the edge and jumped across the gap. He knew he wouldn't make it to the roof, but he had targeted a broken window. He made the jump surprisingly and walked up the stairs with the rpg mounted on his shoulder to make it up to the rooftop. Mark had a feeling someone on the roof knew he was there other than his fellow sniper. He slowly opened the door and walked out.

Sure she was mad before, but now Silence was furious. First a tiny little ice cream cone only in its first evolutionary stage came to her rescue only to be hit by the weapon the human was swinging like a bat. Than the human walks away from her. Well, she'd show him not to turn his back on her.

Looking over her leg she found the problem. The bullet that had been shot at her earlier had lodged itself under her kneecap. She carefully cut a slit where she felt the bullet and slipped two of her claws in. She hissed in pain and bit her lip to keep herself from shouting. A moment later she pulled out the bullet and tossed it away, letting out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding. Silence looked around and spotted the vest the human had discarded. She tore off part of it and wrapped it around the cut as a bandage. The Weavile got up and tried putting weight on her leg and was relieved to find that the pain wasn't so bothersome, more of a slight ache. A gleeful look spread across her face as she walked to the edge of the roof and looked down at the smashed window the human had jumped through.

She was thinking about following him when she noticed something else on the opposite building. There was Lydia staring up at the clouds, Khufu laying down, and a human with his eyes closed humming to himself. "What the heck?" she muttered.

Althalos woke up from his nap to the sound of Ali over his radio. "Sincerely, I wish you all the greatest of luck." the commander said. Althalos looked at his sniper rifle and thought about making a last stand for the human race against the pokemon ground forces, but decided against it. He was with one actual friend, a potential friend, and ironically, a human that was trying to kill him. Althalos looked around to see Khufu laying on the ground. "I'm surprised you didn't leave." Althalos said to him without getting up. He moved around a bit to get in a more comfortable position when Mark ran through the door. The older man was covered in multiple cuts and bruises and was panting. "You look like you've been running from a houndoom through a field of glass and fell down. What happened?" Althalos asked, concerned for his fellow sniper, but still unmoving. He looked over to the other building and saw a weavile on its roof. It looked surprised at what was happening on his roof. He locked eyes with it for a moment, giving it a clear message, "leave us alone." He then grabbed a container of neosporin from his small medical kit and tossed it to Mark, saying "Don't worry, it's not the stinging kind." Althalos then moved a little closer to Lydia and picked her up, just wanting something or someone to hold, then moved back t. The fuselage, slowly stroking her back.

Under the Rubble

Alex regained his conscience by the horrible pain that he is in. He looked up to see a large steel beam on his abdomen. He attempted to struggle out but his attempt failed. Alex saw a man stumbling away, a hand clutching his chest. Alex yelled at him, " Hey, over here,"
the man responded and stumbled over. The man picked up the beam and threw it aside. Alex struggled to get up but he did. He saw his M4 on the ground and picked it up. He loaded the gun, looked down its sights and rested the gun. A Sandslash ran at the man and started to claw at him. Alex aimed at the Sandslash and shot it. It fell off the man's back and layed on the ground, crumpled and dead. It had been awhile since Alex shot an enemy Pokemon. Alex helped the man up. " We would be best to get out of here,"
Alex preached. The man nodded and the two struggled out of the wreck and set out towards the cliffs. Those cliffs Alex was sure was the way to Oreburgh. Soon enough, the two reached the cliffs. Alex grabbed on to a ledge and attempted to pull himself up. However, the pain was just too much.

Silence Quickslash
Jubilife City
Rooftop


Silence blinked away her surprise and her expression returned to being cold and hard. The human that had been resting locked eyes with her and seemed to be trying to tell her to keep away. She crossed her arms and thought about it. If she went over there, he might kill the other two pokemon. Not that she cared about them but that was her general there. Though she didn't like it, she had to believe the Flareon knew what he was doing. The dark pokemon let out an exasperated breath and left the building by the stairs, but not before sending a glare in their direction.

There weren't many humans left and she picked off any that she came by. Hearing a gasp, Silence whirled around only to freeze at what she saw. A girl who looked to be 16 with waist length black hair pulled back in a ponytail and green eyes... the same eyes that used to look at her with such care... Silence stared at the girl, her eyes widened in shock and a half-formed Focus Blast in her hands. Than anger replaced shock. "Why did you leave?!" she yelled at the human as a single hot tear trickled down her face. "Why couldn't you trust me, Lilac?!"

"Silence I...," the girl started before getting a determined look. "There's no way I could have trusted another pokemon after I saw what was happening around me. You're all monsters who don't care for your friends!"

That was the last straw. Silence's enraged screech echoed down the street as she finished charging the Focus Blast and launched it at her former friend who dived out of the way just in time. Silence slumped against a building as she listened to Lilac's fleeing steps. 'She really doesn't trust me,' she thought as she calmed down. Actually hearing it from the girl made it worse. There was no way around it. Lilac truly did not trust Silence, after all they'd been through together.

Alex fell down from the ledge he grabbed on and hit the ground hard. Alex shrivelled in the enormous amount of pain. " There is a way around," the man said. The man helped Alex up and the two walked slowly towards the incline,stumbling frequently. The two traversed up the incline all the way to the top of the cliff. " There, the easy way out," the man remarked. Alex started walking towards Oreburgh City, which was in sight. The man followed him. Within minutes of there crippled walking, they reached Oreburgh City. Alex sighed and stumbled over towards the Military Hospital, which was once the Pokemon Center. " Good bye for now," the man stated. Although Alex did not know the man, he was glad to have met him. " See ya," Alex responded. Alex turned away and staggered into the Hospital. " Hello, how may I help you," the Nurse at the front questioned. Alex looked at the Nurse. Alex thought she looked quite pretty. Alex on the other hand, was in rough shape. " I need some medical attention," Alex replied. " Just got out of the Convoy wreck,"

Ali's growl was far louder than that of the Mightyenas as he pounced into combat. In his ludicrous state, the intimidation from the three had no effect on the HR General. Without so much as wincing from the pain, Ali brandished his knife in one hand and held his gun up with his other. He danced through the dogs who bit through his flesh, leaving gaping and bloody wounds. However, his knife was doing just as much damage, and his shock gun took down the nearest in one hit.
"Come at me! You call yourself fighters?" Ali laughed maniacally, slashing the snout of an approaching Mightyena. He kicked the other under the chin before knocking the two out with his gun.

Ali knelt on the floor, panting heavily. His blood formed little pools on the floor, and so he tore the fabric of his t-shirt and attempted to stem the flow.
Finally, he made to his feet, accompanied by a dizzying headrush. As his eyes were brought into focus, he let out an involuntary yell.
Ahead of him, in the distance, he could see a horde of Pokerebels, charging towards them. There must've been twice as many there as there were HR survivors, at the least. Ali closed his eyes, picking up his radio. Jack hadn't been contactable for a while, and so it was up to Ali to make the call.

"Men, this is your general. Retreat. There are too many, I order you to make your way to Oreburgh immediately." His voice was hollow, defeated. It was all he could do not to tremble with weakness from battle.
"Do not attempt to be a hero, this is the end. Over and out."

The Pokerebel horde were too far away for Ali to attack, and waiting would be foolish in his current state. He staggered out of the main street and made for the outskirts. He'd barely felt the grass beneath his boots when he lost consciousness.

"Althalos, do we have an evac plan in place? And thanks for the neosporin". The rooftop was alot more calm than the rest of the city, even though it was crowded. "make some new friends?" mark asked as he zipped up his not ripped hoodie from his backpack. He picked up his still loaded rpg and started playing with it when he heard the retreat order from the general. "Ahhh! God damn! Now what? Were stuck right in the middle of everything." Mark stood up looking for an exit frantically. "Got any ideas, anyone, and i honestly don't care who answers." Mark sat back down and pulled out his last 50. cal bullet and began fiddling with that instead of the rpg, now laying beside him. He started thinking about the last order they got, go to Oreburgh City, go home.

Hector Arcturus
Jubilife City
HR Base, Stairs to the tops.

Hector and the Pokemon with him had done a number on the human base. Humans lay dead everywhere. Pokemon were dead as well, but not quite as much as the humans were. It was their advantage as closer range. They were usually physically more capable than humans, and only through their guns and knives could they do any real damage. But Pokemon had their paws, their teeth, their claws, and their abilities. With them, they could do so much more. That's, at least, how Hector saw it.

The building had a large portion of the humans inside it, but Hector managed to continue piercing his way to the very top. He had hoped to run into Jack here, so that he could finish off him, and put a huge dent in the human morale, but he didn't find that likely to happen. Jack had come on plane, and he was likely somewhere in the city. Or dead, but he would have heard of it if he was dead. He knew he survived the crash.

Hector then noticed something. Some humans began to run. Hector at first assumed those were cowards, and understood they would die. But then he noticed some others had begun to run as well. It was obvious. A retreat was sounded. Hector sighed, and made his way to the top of the HR building.

He observed the charred remains of the battle. It was indeed true: the humans had retreated. Today was the PokeRebel's victory. His victory. He felt proud to stand on the top of it all. But this was the beginning, and it didn't come without a cost. Many Pokemon died this day, and they won't be forgotten.

Nevertheless, he let out a roar, a roar that could be heard across the battlefield, a roar of victory. The first of many.

Urghhh.
Ali began to stir, his head exploding with pain. He was aching all over, and his limbs felt too heavy to move. Ali's eyes opened, his vision blurred. He had no idea where he was, but felt grass tickling his cheek. Suddenly he felt a light pressure on his arm. His eyes focused and above his head, silhouetted against the bright sky, was a large, pink head.
"Chansey?" The head said, and Ali let out a yelp, sitting up with a jolt. The Chansey's eyes widened, and a fearful look flashed across its face. Ali looked down to see his wounds wrapped in bandages.

"Thank you." Ali said to the pokemon. "Sorry for frightening you..."
The Chansey nodded, its eyes darting around as if it was likely to get into trouble. Well, of course it was, helping the general of the opposition.

"Is there anything I can..?"
Ali's hesitant question was interrupted by a distant roar, reverberating through the nearby city. It was the PR Commander; they had won the battle.
The Chansey's head tilted towards the noise, before running into the city.

Ali hung his head dejectedly. His first two assignments as General couldn't have gone worse. All these lives lost, under his name. Jack was gonna kick some serious Ali butt later. Well, if he was still alive, anyway.

Althalos Fizen
Jubilife City
Plane Wreckage


Althalos sat there with Lyda in his arms, off in his own world. His parents had always taught him to be kind to pokemon. They had made him take care of a little pokedoll for two months before he received Blitz as a birthday present. Holding Lydia made him feel like he was back at his house, a few years before, holding the quilava. His reminiscent thoughts were shattered by the reality of his situation put into question: "Althalos, do we have an evac plan in place? And thanks for the neosporin." Althalos thought for a moment. "You're a good ten years older than me, you think of something. I can't drive and I'm sure most of the cars here were blown up. The only thing I can think of is running towards the way the PR came, then turning and running through the forest, but the city is occupied, so I have no idea how we would get anywhere. This is the only safe place. Right now, I'm content with sitting here." Althalos looked at the fuselage of the plane. "There is probably some provisions in there too. We might be able to last a few days on that and if you have your own stash of rations," Althalos pulled out a king sized 3 Musketeers bar and broke into fourths. He gave one to Lydia, one to Khufu, one to Mark and ate the last one. He looked around in his bag and found something that looked like food and tossed it over to the knife girl for when she woke up. "Besides," He pointed at the bound up girl, "we can't really go anywhere with her sleeping like a snorlax." Althalos shrugged and leaned back again, still stroking Lydia.
"You know, there is only one thing that I really dislike about your boyfriend." Althalos said to her, with a frown. "It's that he's is obviously no older than I am, and he is a cold blooded killer. Nobody, of any age, should be so accustomed to killing that it doesn't even concern them, but to be that young, and not even care. Every time I pull the trigger, I regret needing to do it, in fact I hate it and wish that I could take it back. Wade, I think it was, he seems to kill almost for the fun of it. He has no feeling towards the target or anything like that." Althalos thought for a moment and stopped stroking Lydia's back, but rested his hand on her mane. "I just wish none of this had ever happened. If only some people weren't so cruel." Althalos sighed. 'Than I would never have had a gun pushed into my hands. I would never have become the killer with a conscience." He finished.
Althalos' calm state of mind was interrupted by an ear shattering roar. It was from an Arcanine, the commander of the PR. A victory cry. He had known they had lost when Ali had given the order to retreat, but this just drilled it into his mind. He started humming to himself again, this time "Survivor Guilt."

"Is there anyone still in the city, please respond" Mark decided to pick up the rpg and walked to the edge of the roof. He thought to himself 'There has to be something i can use to get out of the city.' He scanned the area, spotting wade. "Hey, althalos, cover me, im gonna grab him."

" I will get the Doc to check up on you," the Nurse charmingly assured. Alex laid on the bed in immense pain.
" Hello, I am Dr. Davies. I am going to sedate you so the procedure will be painless," the Doctor said. The Doctor gave Alex a liquid. Alex drank it and slowly fell asleep. Alex woke up with the Doctor in the room.
" Your procedure went well Sir, only a few bruises. You can go now," the Doctor assured. Alex got up, feeling well asked,
" Where is my stuff?"
" Cheryl, give him his belongings," the Doctor replied. Alex waited and the Nurse brought his equipment back.
" Here, you never told me what your name was," the Nurse responded.
" Alex Bryant. And thank you for the help," Alex replied.
" Cheryl Sanderson," the Nurse charmingly informed.
" It was a pleasure meeting you," Alex said.
" Maybe not the last time we do," Cheryl replied. Alex walked out of the Hospital, waving at Cheryl on his way out. A high-ranking officer walked in,
" Corporal Bryant, Staff Sergeant Wilkins, pleasure to meet you," the Officer introduced as he shook Alex's hand.
" Ready for some action," the Officer asked.
" Always," Alex replied.
" Good, we are sending some troops in to rescue Survivors. Follow me," the Staff Sergeant asked. Alex followed the Staff Sergeant to a group of Four Humvees. Alex climbed in one with the Staff Sergeant. The engine started, and Alex watched as the Humvees drove away from Oreburgh and over the Oreburgh Gate. Within minutes, the Convoy was just outside of Jubilife. The City looked horrid. Buildings destroyed, people and Pokemon alike dead, the Humvees rolled in to Jubilife with a thud.

The Zorua was getting comfortable in the human's arms. She had never been in real contact with gentle people before. Lydia's 'owner' from several years ago had abandoned her straight away- and when she was on the streets, people would kick her around. But now, she was just happy she had a friend. A human friend, if the human part really mattered. Althalos handed her some food and she grabbed it with her tiny paw, instantly stuffing it in her mouth. It had a sweet sensation. He was still stroking her when he started talking again.

"You know, there is only one thing that I really dislike about your boyfriend. It's that he's is obviously no older than I am, and he is a cold blooded killer".

Her ears perked up, her eyes also narrowing slightly. She looked up, obviously startled by the subject her friend had decided to bring up. Wade...of course he did some killings, but it was for a good reason, right? Lydia felt like saying something and opened her mouth to do so, but Althalos continued to talk.

"Nobody, of any age, should be so accustomed to killing that it doesn't even concern them, but to be that young, and not even care. Every time I pull the trigger, I regret needing to do it, in fact I hate it and wish that I could take it back. Wade, I think it was, he seems to kill almost for the fun of it. He has no feeling towards the target or anything like that."

Her ears were folded back by now, her expressions showing signs of irritation. Of course Wade didn't like killing. It was true that the umbreon was use to the slaughter, but that was his job. So was hers.

"My partner doesn't kill for fun. He does it because it is his job. If he showed emotion, he wouldn't be the top spy he is now," she replied back, trying her hardest to defend Wade. The man had stopped stroking her back by now and had his hand on her mane. She thought about running away, but Althalos looked upset.

"I just wish none of this had ever happened. If only some people weren't so cruel," he said to the pokemon, "Than I would never have had a gun pushed into my hands. I would never have become the killer with a conscience."

Weird how that last sentence seemed to resemble herself. "A killer with a conscience". All she could do was nod, and while she was, a roar burst through her ears, making her fur prickle on edge. She flattened her fur, realizing that her commander had now claimed the city. Lydia turned her head, her ears twitching and picking up mumbles from Althalos. He seemed disturbed, and she was worried again.

"Carry on, Don't mind me. All I gave was everything, And yet you ask me for more. Fought your fight, Bought your life, And in return I lost my life. What purpose does this serve? A folded flag, A purple heart, A family all but torn apart, I fought with courage to preserve Not my way of life, but yours." Althalos quietly sung to himself, letting the words of the song to sink into his head, and still thinking about what Lydia had said. He stopped his quiet singing. "Showing emotion is natural." he said to the zorua. "There has to be emotion, pain, remorse, regret, sadness. Anything like that. But he doesn't I've seen him kill while I was on the TV station roof. He just walked away like he was burying a bone, just to forget about it, never to worry about it again and went to his next target. Killing shouldn't be a way of life like it seems to be for him. It should be a way of protecting yourself or those you care about. If it's not for defense, it should be for a worthy cause, and in my opinion none of this is worthy. Nobody should be killing anyone. I understand that there has been cruelty between pokemon and people since existence, but I don't know who took it too far. You, the pokemon, with all your sudden killings and betrayals of the people that loved them, and I understand that not all pokemon did that, or the cruel humans who crossed the line." Althalos sighed and stroked the zoruas' back again, but when he moved his hand from her neck, he felt small glass ball. It fell out from her mane and hit the ground with a small "ping" He picked up the small object and just sighed. "I asked you to destroy it, but you had the freedom not too, obviously." He set it down in front of the zorua and continued stroking her back. "Hey, Althalos, cover me, I'm gonna grab him." Mark called.
"What? Who?" Althalos couldn't even say no before the man ran off. "I'm done. I'm not never going to kill again, but for now, I'm done. Maybe this whole week, maybe only a few days, but I'm done." Althalos said to no one in particular, but then focused on the zorua. "That reminds me, I'm still going to keep my promise I made back at our HQ. Once I avenge my family, never again." Althalos said and leaned back. "If he wants to go and grab whoever, he needs to cover himself." Althalos felt like he was breaking some unwritten law of the snipers, but he just couldn't bring himself to do anything at the moment.

All Lydia could do was listen. She couldn't argue anymore, because she felt the same way as the man did. This entire war was agonizing. All of the lives taken from it- why had she joined in the first place? She couldn't run now, but there was always a feeling of regret. Maybe not when Lydia first joined, but ever since her first mission. Her first killings as a spy of the PR. The killing. It was all in vain, and would continue to be.

Suddenly, the flame ball from earlier rolled out of her mane while Althalos was stroking her. She watched it roll in front of her, and she felt hypnotized by the fire in the small sphere. The man picked it up with a sigh, and she lowered her ears.

"I asked you to destroy it, but you had the freedom not too, obviously." he said to her, setting it back down on the roof.

"I'm keeping it," the Zorua said, picking it back up, "it will be a permanent reminder of this war for me." Of course, she could remember the war without the ball, but it was important, at least to her.

"I'm done. I'm not never going to kill again, but for now, I'm done. Maybe this whole week, maybe only a few days, but I'm done." Althalos said, not looking at her but talking to something in the distance. He then looked back at her. "That reminds me, I'm still going to keep my promise I made back at our HQ. Once I avenge my family, never again."

She had forgotten about the promise. However, she still remembered what he was fighting for. The Typhlosion. Lydia gazed into the sphere of fire, and put it back in her mane. She missed her own family, and hadn't seen any of them for years. At first her brother's farewells didn't seem like an actual goodbye, but now that time had passed it was very clear to Lydia that they weren't kidding around; and that she would never see them again. Althalos' family was gone just as hers, but there was no chance his family would come back. That's why he was fighting.

"I'll let you know if I find him, the Typhlosion," she replied back, "and then you can avenge your family," Her voice was getting quieter. "I know you hate this war, and it'll be hard to continue with the killing. We just need to get through it, and keep fighting..."

It was like being Spec ops, with all the hiding and waiting. It was boring, just waiting, since the umbreon could leave at any moment but mark kept waiting until he got a plan. It popped in his head like a light bulb. With that he started to move into the street. He slid the pistol across the ground to distract the pokemon, slowly creeping up behind him. Mark quickly grabbed him. He yelled back up to the rooftop "Got 'em." Headlights were at the other end of the road now, mark wondered who could it be, the tanks that never came? Mark walked up the stairs anyways and put down wade as he went to sit down against the wall. "Althalos, convoy coming up the road, i couldn't tell if it's military or not, Sounds like humvees though. Wanna hitch a ride?" Mark's 'Belongings' were all over the ground at this time, he started to pick everything up, shoving it all in his backpack. The final thing he picked up was his RPG. "Coming?" Mark said to althalos as he headed towards the stairs "Say goodbye to your friends, kid. Unless they want to come for the ride, heh."

Lydia's words were somewhat comforting. He smiled at her. "Thanks." He knew that getting through a war was easier said than done, but unless you died, it was necessary. "After I can avenge my family, unless something comes up, I'm resigning from the HR. If they won't let me, I'll just run away." Althalos said. the idea of leaving with out a discharge scared him but it seemed right. He sighed and looked at the sky. His thoughts to his younger years came back. "My parents always told me to be kind to pokemon. I feel like I'm betraying them by my joining the HR and becoming a sniper and a spy of all things. I still haven't been sent on a mission as an actual spy, but that's my role. I think it's somewhat fitting since I still steal cookies from the kitchen back at HQ." Althalos laughed half--heartedly. "When I was younger and Blitz was still a quilava-" Althalos caught himself when he said his old friends name, but decided he was ok with talking about the happier times. "We would work together to steal sweets. I think we did that the first night I had him. We finished off the last of my birthday cake." Althalos smiled at the memory. By the time we got to my room that night, he had eaten more than me. His face was covered in icing and he was bloated. My parents were angry when they found out. So were our stomachs. My parents forgave us though, when they saw his sad blue eyes when they yelled at us, but our bellies didn't," Althalos' smile was sad, but he enjoyed the memories, a sunny day after months of rain. "I just called him quilava for about a month until I watched an old war movie. After that I decided to call him Blitzkrieg, or Blitz for short." Althalos sighed and watched as a patrolling flock of bird pokemon, he couldn't tell what at the distance, flew over head. He was startled by the sound of engines as a hummer convoy entered the city. The engines were loud in the sad quiet that had ensued after the battle ended, but he didn't move. "I don't think I'll go with them. I'm going to get out myself, and as an added challenge, unless Mark takes her." Althalos pointed his unoccupied hand at the knife girl, "She'll be coming with me." he didn't even notice Mark as he came upstairs. He was holding Wade pretty tightly. "I'm not one much for riding with jar heads. It's a bit too cramped and sweaty in there for me." Althalos said. He gave Wade a polite nod. "I'm gonna see if I can get out of here on my own, but it would be much appriciated if you took knife chic with you."

"Interesting stuff always happens in humvees so it would be your loss, and i don't think i have a choice of taking the assassin fail over there." Mark put the rpg in his bag and picked up 'Knife chic' and slung here over his shoulder, picking up wade with his free hand and headed down the stairs after using a dart as a shot for wade when no one was looking. "See you when we next meet, sniper." The hummer convoy came to a stop at mark's side. He hopped in the second to last humvee, putting his luggage into a seat next to him. He looked at the man sitting shotgun, mainly his rank. "Staff sergeant." He said with a nod as he pulled out his rpg, he said "Call the turret." Mark climbed up with his rpg "Good luck althalos" The convoy moved with a jerk. Mark slouched down in the turret to see the soldier next to wade and the new tied up HR spy. "So, whats you name?" The man replied "Alex" "I'm Mark, Sniper" It was hard to believe mark was a soldier right now in his casual appearance. "You guys wouldn't happen to have any armor vest spare would you?"

The Convoy came to a stop as two soldiers climbed into the truck, one of them carrying a Pokemon.
" So, what's your name," the soldier in the turret asked.
" Corporal Alex Bryant," Alex replied.
" I'm Mark,Sniper," the Soldier replied. Alex looked to his right to see the Pokemon and the tied up Human. Why was she tied up, Alex wondered. "You guys wouldn't have any Armor vests to spare would you," Mark asked. " No," Alex replied. Alex heard the Humvee stop by a struggling person withering on the ground. Alex jumped out of the Humvee. Alex picked up the Civilian and put hum in his seat.
" Take my seat," Alex offered. Alex closed the door, Saluted, and walked away from the Humvee.
" What are you going to do," Mark questioned.
" If I am lucky, get back some intel," Alex replied.

Silence Quickslash

Silence was startled out of her thoughts by a loud roar. 'Sounds like we won,' she thought but it didn't make her feel glad like it usually would. She used to believe that all she wanted was revenge, but now... she wasn't sure. Seeing Lilac had made her angry, yes, but there was also the hurt and loneliness she had been trying to hide for so long. One thing she puzzled over was why Lilac hadn't attacked when the Weavile's guard was down.

Silence sighed and slowly walked down the streets towards what once was the HR base. She heard the rumbling of vehicles and stopped as some humans drove by in their humvees. Normally she would have attacked but she just wasn't in the mood. Instead she went down an alley and out of view. Due to the rather slow pace she was moving at it took awhile for her to reach the tall building. She looked around blankly than took a seat in a corner where she could watch the victorious pokemon.

Rumble
Oreburgh City
Sewers, Secret Laboratory

The silence of the sewers was broken by a enthusiastic scream, coming from no other than Rumble.
"FINALLY!"
His shadow was hanging on the wall, huge. The light of the lamp he made was only enough to see his desk, where he made all his inventions. Smoke was coming out of the Flamethrower gun he worked so hard to upgrade. The gun itself was connected to his own body - it was actually IN his body, his left hand.
At last, I made this baby work. Let's see what she can do.
He raised his left arm againist the wall he was looking the past 12 years, the wall his shadow spent countless hours on. He pulled the trigger and the Flamethrower licked the wall, turning it even more black than it was.
Rumble then charged againist the wall with his right hand, smashing it to pieces.
Hah, it wasn't as thick as someone would expect. This must be my exit.
He used his telepathic powers to gather all the bullets and flame liquid-fuel he made and put them inside his body, and a remote with a green light, next to his Nanotech armor vest, and then levitated like a ghost inside the small corridor through the entrance he created. A blue light came out of his left hand - he had installed a flashlight in his flamethrower, working with a powerful lithium - ion baterries.
According to the blueprints of the sewers, there is a pipe at the end of this tunnel, which leads outside town... But first, I gotta take care of something.
The Pokemon turned around and planted something on the wall of the corridor.


After a while, Rumble found the side of a pipe. He used his flamethrower to melt the steel and walked through it. The smell did not reach his little nose; his liquid blocked it out. As he was levitating, the filthy, black water did not bother him either. His blue flashlight seemed kind of dull... he would change it later. Some Raticates hid when they saw the dull light coming their way.
Uncivillized Pokemon.. It makes me sad.
Then, another source of light was born in his optical range - the exit!


He got out of the sewers. The picture, the green was exactly how he remembered it. He looked around, while blinking his eyes to get used to the light, and turned of his flashlight. He realized in front of him, about 50 meters away, there were humans, on a humvees.
Rumble instanly activated his camouflage cloak.
That's no true invisibility.. but will be enough for now.
Then he levitated towards the vehicle and heard human voices. His heart rate increased and he was ready to blow up the vehicle with his Flamethrower when he heard a word: Jubilife. These people, human soldiers obviously, were going to aid in Jubilife!
A bright idea came into his mind, as he was getting closer to the humvees.

The green, sticky Pokemon used its liquid to stuck itself beneath the humvees. After a long -or so it seemed-, tiring -even for Rumble- journey, they stopped. He could hear the soldiers talk, but he didn't care what they were talking about. Someone got off the vehicle. It was then when he unstuck himself and fell on the ground. He activated his camouflage once again, and levitated away slowly.. He would blow up the car with the people inside but it he decided againist it; he didn't know where he was and backup could arrive immediately.
So he just started levitating towards the big buildings of Jubilife City...


Rumble realized he hadn't breathed fresh air for the last 12 years, just when he was observing the Pokemon screaming victoriously, and running into the HR building. He was on the roof of another building, very close. He saw an Arcanine from afar - probably their Commander. He remembered it from the paper he read.
The view is amazing from up here - human bodies everywhere, blood... carnage. My thing.
There were dead Pokemon too. But the feeling the dead Pokemon gave him - he couldn't recognize it.
Something compelled him to look around the building, in the ground. He saw a Pokemon with red and black-like fur walking down the streets, among the bodies.
An update on the situation wouldn't hurt.
"You! Yeah you! What's happening over there?"

Route 207


Ali sighed, staggering to his feet. He should go and find any survivors. He rolled his shoulders to prevent his arms stiffening up as footsteps could be heard on the gravel path.
Ali raised his gun as two soldiers emerged, one supporting the other. Upon seeing his own soldiers, Ali lowered his weapon and strode purposefully over to them.
"Sir!" The healthier soldier shouted, attempting to salute. "She's badly injured, sir. There was a Nidoking, and-"
"Alright, alright." Ali said, waving his hand as to stop him talking. "Put her on the floor. Do you think you could make it to Oreburgh?"
The soldier shook his head frantically, gently placing his companion on the grass.
Ali knelt by her side, feeling for a pulse.
"Her pulse is strong, and she's breathing. What's her name?"
"Caitlyn, sir. Caitlyn Black."
"Officer Black, can you hear me? If you can, open your eyes."
After several seconds of no response, Ali pulled out a small torch, looking under her eyelids.
"She's suffered a pretty severe concussion. We'll get some transport to take you both to Oreburgh."

Ali spoke into his radio, and the transport was on its way.
"Are you alright to look after her?"
"Yes sir."
"Okay, I have to get back to Jubilife. The infirmary at HQ will look after you both. Good job."
"Th-thank you sir."

Ali raised a hand in response as he walked away, towards the city. Too many were injured, and troops were needed for recovery missions. He spoke into his talkie:
"Oreburgh HQ. We need troops into Jubilife for recovery. That means Humvees, infirmary staff, soldiers, the lot. There'll still be some PR around no doubt, so take weapons, but do not raise your guns first, understand? The battle is over. We don't need any more casualties."

With that, Ali handed his XM25 to the soldier and hid his shock gun as best he could in his hoodie. The last thing he wanted was to start another battle, and right now he had to find Jack. He picked up his radio and contacted the Commander's radio alone. "Jack, I'm coming to find you. Don't you worry about it."

ElectricScyther June 24th, 2011 6:08 AM

Khufu was silent as the battle drew to a close. The humans were fleeing in a convoy to the east. That, of course, meant victory for the pokemon, but Khufu was too embarrassed to show his face to Hector, the Commander, or any other pokemon. Once he'd stayed with a human in the heat of battle, there was no forgiveness. Instead, when no one was looking, he dashed off in the direction of the convoy.

Although he wasn't sure how he was going to kill the humans, as he had no training in espionage like Wade or Lydia, but Khufu was partly comforted by that. Since he couldn't show his face to PokeRebel again, running off and attempting a suicidal mission would, he hoped, save face.

With a good reason for what he was doing, Khufu only slightly regretted his decision. He never looked back at Jubilife City, even in his mind, but it was still a challenge to suppress the uneasy feeling in his stomach as he ran in the trail of the retreating convoy.

Ali limped towards Jubilife's heart with purpose in his stride. A dull pain was spreading through his leg, but there was no time for it to bother him. The city ahead lay in rubble, and somewhere amongst the wreckage was Ali's Commander.
Ali was deep in thought as he stumbled through the brush surrounding the city, and was barely aware of any rustling around him. His reverie was finally broken by a blood-curdling growl from his left. The general turned, weapons safely in their respective holsters, to face a distinctive Flareon with a blue mane.

"General Khufu," Ali growled, his hand resting on the hilt of his knife. "I'm ah, honoured to finally meet you."

"But, what are you doing out here?" Ali said softly, almost maliciously. "Shouldn't you be celebrating with your Commander? You're not-" Ali gasped mockingly, "-you're not running away, are you?"

"What are you going to do?" Mark asked " If I am lucky, get back some intel," Alex replied. "Your going to need some help then..." Mark spied a non-destroyed car, Mclaren F1 ...and i know just how to help." He hopped back into the turret and in the humvee and picked up everything he brought in. 'Wow, great find mark.' He thought to himself as he put elixa and wade in the passenger seat. "Hey, Alex, want a ride?" Before he could leave though he had to hot-wire the car. The car came to life. Mark revved up the car, it sounded great. The car had silver paint and suicide doors, which added to the look."I'm Having a lucky day now, hehe." Mark whispered to himself. Mark drove over to Alex and through up the door. "Hey, want a ride?"

Lydia
Jubilife City
Plane Wreck

The Zorua listened to the man next to her with curiousity, laughing with him as he also laughed. His distant memories sounded warm and comforting. It made her blood boil to know that her friend had been betrayed by someone of her own kind. Both human's and pokemon's emotions were close to identical. Though their appearances differed, it didn't really matter, since each of them were responsible for the separate issues each had caused. And now, unfortunately, those issues had built into war. A war that was claiming the lives of many, Lydia realized. She got up from her laid down position and walked toward the edge of the building. Looking down revealed horrid images of ripped corpses, little-to-no pokemon following. Her view from atop the large building was enormous. Close to everything was visible, and members of the PR were found everywhere as the humans began to retreat.

"This is horrible," the pokemon said aloud. She didn't have much to say in her reaction to the city, but she knew that this city was the first of many other areas to be claimed. Eventually, the pokemon race would have them all. The thought sent a shiver down her spine. "And I know its going to get worse..."

She turned back at Althalos. How much longer could she stay with him until they were caught? The Zorua didn't know, but didn't feel comfortable in his presence anymore. She needed to join back with the Rebel.

"I have to go," she whined back, "Good luck getting out of the city...". Her eyes were gentle and sad. Looking back down at the ground, she jumped while glowing a vibrant red light. A Pidgeot took her place as she was halfway down the building, its feathers catching the wind beneath her and guiding her into the crowd of pokemon. With one last drain of energy, she lowered her altitude and changed into her Eevee form, her previous illusion breaking into what seemed like glass and re-forming into the golden fur. Her small feet scattered across the ground as she continued to run, almost in a jog.

Pokemon were everywhere, no live human to be found. It was almost depressing, but she knew that wars claimed lives, and therefore she was prepared for this. Yet, her usual wild, happy spirit had been ripped apart just like the humans. Lydia hadn't felt any worse in her entire life. The Zorua was worn down, both physically and emotionally. She walked through the crowds of pokemon like a zombie, her eyes only half open and her head drooping down in despair. Her ruby red eyes seemed darkened as so did her face. It was then she heard a call from behind.

"You!" said a masculine voice. Her eyes snapped into color and she turned around, surprised at what she saw. "You! Yeah you! Whats happening over there?" It was an Reuniclus, though the gel-like substance around its body seemed to contain human-made weapons, including a flamethrower and gun. It was startling at first, but she walked over, still quite cautious about the odd pokemon.

"Whats happening? Its called war, and we just won. Are you a member of the Poke'Rebel? I've never seen you before," she said, trying to look directly at the pokemon but finding herself peering more at the weapons in his body, "I'm Lydia. You are...?"

Lydia got up from Althalos' arms. He had gotten comfortable with her warmth and her leaving made him shiver a little bit, and he wished he had his hoodie again. She wished him luck as she turned into a pidgeot and took off. He reluctantly got up and sighed, stretching. He spied Khufu, who had also left, down on the ground near Ali. Altahlos thought of going over there, but decided against it. The two generals were having a staring contest, it seemed. Althalos wasn't going to talk to them formally, but he decided to break it up. He picked up the AK-47 and fired one shot at the ground between them. "Get a move on!" Althalos called and grabbed his few possessions. He grabbed one napalm clip and a few standard ones, reloaded the magnum and slung his sniper over his shoulder, using th AK as his current means of defense. He left the motion detector and ran to the fire escape. Jumping off it's lower platform, he rolled on the ground. He brushed himself off and sprinted past Ali and Khufu, giving his general a quick salute and Khufu a scratch on the ears as he ran past. He sprinted as fast as he could through the city, not wanting to really see what had happened to everyone. He vaulted over the dead steelix and finally exited the city. He walked for about a kilometer and then started sprinting again and he din't stop until he made it into the forest.

The little Pokemon seemed startled by his appearance.
Clearly Pokemon weren't used to human guns. That's so unfair.

"Whats happening? Its called war, and we just won. Are you a member of the Poke'Rebel? I've never seen you before," she said, trying to look directly at the pokemon but finding herself peering more at the weapons in his body, "I'm Lydia. You are...?"

Rumble let out a laugh for some reason.
"Rumble. My name is Rumble. What are you looking at?" said Rumble while winking slyly and smiled. He imbued his voice with telepathy, making it sound different. He couldn't remember the last time he talked that long.
"Quite the gun, huh? I wonder how humans are losing this war when handling these sweeties here.."
The green Pokemon turned its eyes on the PR building. He looked all those Pokemon getting it, letting out cries.
"You're going there?" and pointed at the building with his right hand.

"Rumble. My name is Rumble. What are you looking at?" It said while smiling. By now his voice had changed dramatically, him using telepathy. The Reuniclus pointed to the now taken over building, "You're going there?"

Her face brightened up a bit, glad to know the pokemon wasn't dangerous though his appearance looked like it. "Sorry, I haven't seen any pokemon handling guns before. I'm guessing you can use it too, huh?" The thought of a pokemon being able to use guns was unusual, but most likely would give the psychic pokemon an edge in battle. Lydia looked at the base and back at Rumble, "Yes, I am. You can come too if you have nowhere else to go".

Other pokemon were gathered at the entrance, going inside and making battle cries as a rejoice of their victory. The fighting was hopefully finished; or at least for now. The eevee smiled back at the Reuniclus and turned, walking to the new base.

The small Pokemon who looked like an eevee now, looked at the PR building.
"Yes, I am. You can come too if you have nowhere else to go".

Rumble nodded and followed her, levitating through the air... above the bodies.
"Yeah, I can use these guns.. In fact I'm the one who made them. Say, how did you change your appearance? I don't know any Pokemon that can do that. At least not from Sinnoh."
The green Pokemon looked around him, at the street. The entire city was devasted and turned into a battlefield, literally. He thought of staying, to carry the Pokemon that survived, for some reason he couldn't explain.
But then he looked back for a moment.
"Also; I do have another place to go. But that's another story" and kept walking.

The Reuniclus was following behind her just as she hoped. She guessed he wanted to become a member. He levitated off the ground through his psychic power.

"Yeah, I can use these guns," he said while following her, "In fact I'm the one who made them." That was impressive.

"Really? That's cool," she replied back sounding surprised.

"Say, how did you change your appearance? I don't know any Pokemon that can do that. At least not from Sinnoh."

"Oh, well, I'm a Zorua. Our kind sort off originated in Unova, but we've moved around easily due to our illusions. I can do lots of other tricks, too," she said back with pride, "This is my favorite form."

Rumble looked back for a second while they were talking. "Also, I do have another place to go, but that's another story". Lydia nodded, wondering what this 'other story' was, but decided it didn't matter. After all, they were already at the base. The Eevee sneaked through the crowd of pokemon, checking back to see how her new friend was also doing. Inside revealed many more PR members, busy setting things up for the new Poke'Rebel base. Many useless human-made items were being removed, and other creatures in the building were either chatting or treating their wounds. Lydia looked back at Rumble.

"I don't know how to officially sign you up for a place at the Poke'Rebel, but I'm sure you can just make yourself at home here. There's not much to do now, but you might be able to talk with our commander once he comes", she said.

Rumble
PR Base
Main Hall

He suddenly felt superior, looking at all these Pokemons who couldn't handle what he could: human guns. The first being he saw after a long time was impressed by what he accomplished, and that just raised his ego. Though he could understand all this wasn't exactly good, he just kept on smiling on every passing Pokemon who looked at him, challenging them. In the Main Hall, there was chaos. Everything was in motion.
I don't like all this mess... all I want is to see the Commander. He looked at his arms. I can't wait to use them...

"I don't know how to officially sign you up for a place at the Poke'Rebel, but I'm sure you can just make yourself at home here. There's not much to do now, but you might be able to talk with our commander once he comes", she said.

"There's not much to do here?! Hah!" Rumble let out another laugh. He thought there was something wrong about this building.

"As an outsider... I can't officially do anything. But I'll start with inspecting this building. Who knows what the humans could be upto - from spying devices to nuclear bombs. See you later" he said and started levitating up the stairs. He saw some Pokemon he couldn't recognise. Man, new species... I totally need an update on what's going on in the world right now.
Rumble saw a ticket in a door right next to him right after he finished climbing the stairs - "Maintenance". Hmm.. Perfect. There should be the blueprints of the building.
He tried opening the door, but it was locked. He concentrated and used his telepathy to destroy the lock. A small 'crack' was heard and he sneaked inside when no one was looking. The room was quite dark, with no windows. A 'click' was heard this time and the lights turned on.
Bunch of papers and folders everywhere - some even thrown in the floor. That small room reminded him of his secret base. He looked around and saw the blueprints of the building. It might take some time to examine those. Let's take a look-see here. I see this corridor on the 4F, the Maintenance room..
The blueprints seemed to be clear of any suspicious corners or rooms. But something didn't seem right , something was bugging him - the thought that the humans wouldn't leave their base just like that. So Rumble decided to search the building by himself. Blueprints wouldn't show anything, besides.
Suddenly, he heard a loud voice from down in the Hall, and Pokemon cheering. It was the commander, without doubt.

When he reached the hall, he saw this Pokemon from earlier: an Arcanine, the Commander of PR, sitting on a desk with a serious-business look on his face. So Rumble thought, and walked towards him.
"...I've been looking forward in meeting you, Commander. My name is Rumble, and I want to help Pokemon... with the war." Rumble looked him in the eyes. He saw the spirit of a leader. He wasn't sure what that feeling was - admiration, maybe? His own clever eyes glowed, as he was trying to consider what was going on in his brain...

"Ah.. also I'd like to bring up a subject that's been bothering me. Have you confirmed the safety of this building for the new PR base? Because I don't think the humans would leave without a twist. And the Pokemon, having no way of tracking spying devices... it could be a great deal."

Hector Arcturus
Jubilife City
Former HR Base, Rooftop

Hector proceeded down towards the lower levels of the former Human base. There were Pokemon all across crying out victory cheers and smiling about. Hector felt like smiling too, after all, this was his first victory as a commander, but he felt it would violate his protocol to show that kind of emotion. He had already garnered the reputation of a hard-ass, and he would like to keep it that way. He'd rather be respected than feared, but he'd also rather be feared than looked down upon. Pokemon stopped and acknowledged the Commander as he passed by them, either with a salute, or if they were incapable because of their special, a short bow of the head, followed by a "Commander" or a "Sir". Hector nodded back in a show of respect to each one who had given him the same. He would always give the same respect he received, he would always treat everyone the same. But that doesn't mean he's nice to everyone. He's the same, stern, hard-ass to everyone.

Hector reached the main hall of the building. Tons of Pokemon had gathered in there, and they cheered and roared once Hector walked in. They began cheering for Pokemon, for the PokeRebels. Hector settled them down and began speaking.

"All right, all right, settle down. Today was a good day for us. We got our first major city taken back from the humans. We have shown them one thing. We are a force to be reckoned with. This means from here on, every battle will be tougher. But we will prevail, nonetheless."

Hector stopped to the sound of cheers. He settle them down again, and spoke, this time in a more serious tone. What he was about to say wasn't something he wanted to say, but he knew he had to make it perfectly clear.

"But I want to make one thing clear. We have a known enemy, and that enemy is the human. Every single one of them. I have heard reports on the battle of Pokemon and humans on some occasions associating with one another. This....is no less than an atrocity, and can be deemed as much as treason, something we PokeRebels don't take lightly to. Therefore, those who do, be warned. You won't get a second warning. If you are seen with a human, the necessary steps will be taken. If I see you with a human myself, though, I will rip you apart where you stand, as if you were a human yourself. You have given up these liberties when you decided to join the PokeRebels. If you don't like it, you can leave, but you're no friend of ours. Humans, ALL humans, are the enemies, and we will give them what they deserve by the end of this war."

There was less so cheering from this part of the speech.

"Dismissed." Hector said, and the Pokemon dispersed in random directions. Many stayed in the mess hall. Hector spoke to his assistant, who he saw in the area, a Sandslash named Procter.

"Procter, good to see you're well. Have a group of Pokemon list all those that are Killed in Action or Missing in Action. Those that we have found bodies for, make sure that all are received a proper burial. Also, locate where General Khufu is. I wish to speak with him."

Procter nodded and saluted as he left Hector to perform the necessary commands. Hector remained in the main hall, observing a few papers on a desk from the humans.

Althalos Fizen
Forest to the south of Jubilife


Althalos slowed to a stop and leaned against a tree. He hadn't really stopped for about 15 minutes of solid sprinting. The guns seemed very heavy now and what was left of his shirt was drenched in sweat. He slid down the tree trunk and took a deep breath. He heard a crooning in the sky and saw noctowl calling out because it saw him. Althalos picked up his sniper, took aim and pulled the trigger. The bullet hit it's wing and it fell to the ground. Althalos, thinking he was lucky to have hit it at all stood up, weakly grabbed his things and walked over to where the noctowl had fallen. The owl pokemon was laying on the ground and it called in alarm as he approached. "I'm sorry." Althalos tried to calm it down. "I just didn't feel like you telling every one where I was." Althalos picked up the pokemon and forced it to stand on it's feet. The bullet had gone clean through it's wing, leaving a somewhat large hole. "I don' think you'll be flying again, but I can at least stop the bleeding. Altahlos reached for another strip from his shirt, but then remembered he had gauze in his small medical kit. He felt stupid for having wasted enough shirt that half of his stomach was showing. He grabbed the gauze from his bag and wrapped some of it around the pokemons wing. He tied it off and ripped it with his teeth. "There you go," he patted the pokemon on the back and stood up, and walked away from it. "Thanks... I think?" the noctowl called after him. With that done, Althalos started heading East through the woods.

ElectricScyther June 24th, 2011 3:01 PM

Khufu leered at the enemy General. No words broke from his mouth, and they didn't need to. His fury was captured quite well with the look on his face.

The silence was pierced by a gunshot, and yanking his head back, Khufu saw Althalos, not far away, lowering his AK-47 and running past the two Generals. Khufu felt a hand scratching his ear, and part of his fury crumbled away. Sensing calm returning to him, Khufu's face softened and he nodded quickly at Ali before turning and sprinting away. His reasoning returned with his calm, but his harsh soul would never go away. As he slowed to a jog, his thoughts remained on his embarrassment. His face was warm, his eyes squeezed shut.

Attempting to hide his feelings by grinning, Khufu walked into what at dawn this morning had been the HR base, heading for the main hall. Unsurprised at the sight of Hector sitting at a desk, studying a stack of papers, Khufu spoke. "Good to see you, Hector, sir. Sorry for... ah... showing up a little late."

As usual, Hector's face was stony and emotionless. Khufu found it slightly unsettling for some reason, and he swallowed hard, maybe for some other reason, as he continued, gesturing at the papers, "Is anything of note in there?"

Former HR Base

The shock of seeing her former friend had worn off and Silence was back to her old self. She noticed Lydia in Eevee form come in followed by a Reuniclus with what looked like guns melded into its hands. The psychic-type was looking around at the other pokemon as if he was way above them and Silence promised herself she would put him in his place some other time. Right now though, she needed to talk to Lydia. The Weavile walked up behind the transformed Zorua and said quietly so only she would hear, "You looked pretty comfortable with that human earlier. I don't think Hector would be to happy if he found out."

By now, the Eevee was wandering around the building, talking with some of the members though not many. It was usually easy to blend in, but she was feeling somewhat nervous after the Arcanine's speech. As she was talking, she noticed Silence walking towards her and she turned around to face the Weavile.

"You looked pretty comfortable with that human earlier. I don't think Hector would be to happy if he found out," she whispered in Lydia's ear. Her red eyes widened. She had let her guard down, and her fear was immediately replaced with anger. Her Eevee ears folded back in discomfort. "Your not trying to threaten me, are you?" she asked, still smiling put a frown slowly forming over her face. The eevee sighed. "Ok, what do you want, Silence? Obviously you caught me. What are you going to do now? Just turn me in?" She was trying to be quiet, but it was hard since she was irritated.

Althalos was her friend. Lydia couldn't just abandon him like Hector wished, and she couldn't turn on him like his Typhlosion once did. She was in a corner she couldn't get out of. Lydia felt like running away, fleeing, but she was trapped. Just her rotten luck.

"I don't make threats when I won't get anything out of it. As for if I'll tell the commander... that depends how good your excuse is," she replied. "If I don't see any reason to tell Hector, I won't. If I see reason to tell him, I will."

Lydia chuckled, no longer frowning but grinning. "In all honesty, I have no excuse, but I can assure you it will be no issue, since the human is partially fighting for our side. As long as he has a feeling of friendship between me and him, manipulating the human is just as easy as making friends with him. I've already had him betray his own kind just for me. And I'm sure that I can get him to continue to aid the PR. If I have to, I'll get rid of him, but that would be a waste. You can tell on him if you want. I won't stop you, but you won't get a reward from him for turning me in either."

She turned around without waiting for a reply and began traveling back to the room she had picked up medicines from earlier. The Eevee also, surprisingly, picked up a bag on the way.

Khufu and Ali stared intently at each other, and it was impossible to tell which one was more angry. Just as Ali was wondering if he had the strength to battle, a gun shot and movement to his left caught his attention. Both generals turned to see Althalos run past them, and their fury diffused.
Khufu nodded at Ali and ran back towards the city. Angry as Ali was, he was honourable in fight and refused to attack when his enemy's back was turned. Khufu and him both deserved each other's full attention in battle; any less would be cowardly.

"Althalos!" Ali shouted, remembering the sniper who'd run past him. Ali limped to the young fighter and held out a hand. "Good to see you're alright, man. Are you injured?"

Ali blew his hair out of his eyes, looking back at the city. "I'm going back in, to find survivors. I'd value your company, Althalos."

Hector Arcturus
Jubilife City
New PR HQ

Hector looked over some papers. There was some minor things he was concerned about, but he wouldn't want to disturb his troops with it just after their first major victory. He was interrupted by General Khufu. Besides a few minor times, this is the first time they have spoken face to face.

"Good to see you, Hector, sir. Sorry for... ah... showing up a little late."

Hector nodded at him, and responded.

"General."

Khufu spoke again, a hint of nervousness in his voice. Hector approved.

"Is anything of note in there?"

"A few minor details, but we'll get to that later. I wanted to chat a bit with my second-in-command. We have never actually sat down and talked very much since I have become commander, and I feel it necessary to understand your position and feelings on this...conflict. So if you wouldn't mind, I'd like to hear your story. What brought you here? And when you're done with that, perhaps tell me your specialties."

Hector's mind was always working, so he asked all his necessary questions up front and all at once. He was interrupted by another Pokemon who came up to him, and introduced himself.

"...I've been looking forward in meeting you, Commander. My name is Rumble, and I want to help Pokemon... with the war."

Hector looked over Rubble. He had the air of a true fighter in him. Something told Hector he had just picked up a good new fighter. Hector nodded.

"Welcome to our base in Jubilife, Rubble. I am Hector Arcturus, Commander of the PokeRebels. This is General Khufu, my second in command. If you wish to be apart of us, you answer to us."

Rubble spoke again.

"Ah.. also I'd like to bring up a subject that's been bothering me. Have you confirmed the safety of this building for the new PR base? Because I don't think the humans would leave without a twist. And the Pokemon, having no way of tracking spying devices... it could be a great deal."

Hector eyes narrowed at Rubble.

"We have spies scouring the building for human devices that seem misplaced or unusual. That is the best we can do at the moment, there is just too many other things to deal with, like taking care of our dead, and finding out the casualties and who's where...Unless you happen to have means to help, then by all means do so."

Hector didn't wait for an answer from Rubble. He turned his attention back to his General, awaiting his answer to his questions.

Rumble glanced at the Flareon standing next to him. And then stared back at the commander, who didn't return the stare.
It seems the commander is too busy right now. The safety of the building is not his first priority... I can see he's made for war. But something is still bothering me.. Maybe I should look into it after I made my own base.
He levitated away. The talk between the commander and general was none of his business. Right now he needed a place to stay, to get out of all this fuss. He'd never been with so many Pokemon in one room.
Finding shelter in the sewers was a good idea but he didn't know if he could handle it. Rumble got out of the building, he saw a bunch of Chanseys tending to the Pokemon that survived. That was the only movement he saw.. Perfect conditions.
The green-maze Pokemon walked towards the TV station...

Silence frowned. Lydia's alibi did sound plausible, but the Weavile sensed there was more to it. For now though, she would let it be. But if she ever had reason to believe the friendship between the Zorua and the human would hinder the PR, she would tell Hector.

Silence went back to her corner and fiddled with the cloth on her wrist. It was blue, just like her head feather. She still remembered when her mother gave it to her as she was dying. It was all Silence had to remember her by.

She brushed some dust off the velvety cloth than crossed her arms. Though the Weavile had a hard time admitting it, she thought she might be getting soft. Not long ago she would have reported Lydia immediately, but now... she scowled. 'Snap out of it. You're only learning to be more reasonable' she admonished herself and leaned back against the wall with a quiet huff.

Althalos Fizen
Forest South-east of Jubilife
heading back towards Jubilife


Althalos had put some good distance between himself and the now occupied jubilfe city. He had been walking since he had shot the noctowl down and it had been about 15 minutes. Althalos thought he was about half way to Orebourgh when he remembered something important, at least to him it was. Althalos had a sudden burst of energy and turned around in a full on sprint. He covered the distance he had walked in a few minutes and then came to where he had laeft the noctowl, which was no where to be seen, but tehre was a small pool of blood which hadn't been absorbed by the dirt so he knew he was getting close. Althalos didn't stop sprinting until he reached the main street of the city that lead in from the south. On his way out, Althalos hadn't paiud any attention to his surroundings, but this street was littered with bodies, all human. The pokemon bodies seemed to have been removed, but piles of dead soldiers were scattered on the side of the road, which was now more dirt than anything. Althalos got an idea and walked over to one of the dead soldiers who still was gripping his gun. Althalos gently removed the gun from the mans stiff fingers and took off his helmet. He shoved as much of the barrel as he could into the chunky street and set the helmet on top of the butt of the gun. Althalos did this with every gun and helmet he found. He turned around to see what he had done. It looked like an army of sentiant guns holding their ground against anything that might come at them. Althalos looked around and saw one last soldier leaning against a wall with a blood splatter behind his head. Rather than a gun in his hand, he had a picture. Althalos looked at it to see the dead soldier with a group of people who looked to be his family. Althalos took the picture and found another gun. He put it in the front center of the other ones and put the mans helmet on it. He pulled out his sniper and turned on the flame thrower. Althalos aimed it at the ground and started writing on the ground with it, leaving scorch mark letters on the ground. When he was done, it said "for those who gave their lives for something that shouldn't have happened." Althalos made it his personal mission to find the family of that last soldier and give his family the picture. Althalos turned around, not glancing back and slowly started walking to the former HR base. On his way, he saw Ali, who had called out after him before, but he hadn't stopped. "You wanted something?"

The Eevee searched around for medicines, however since this was the previous HR base, only human medicines were found in every room she checked. She growled in frustration. Humans couldn't heal as fast as they could, nor did they have as much medication. Obviously they wouldn't have any pokemon medicine in the building. Lydia gave up after about 10 minutes of looking. There wasn't much to do in the HR Base other than look around or chat with random pokemon about the war and their first victory; which really wasn't what she wanted to be doing.

After awhile, the small pokemon headed to the roof. Not as many pokemon were there, and the silence pleased the Eevee. Lydia just wanted to stop and think. She looked off the edge of the tall structure, gazing at the sky and occasionally looking down at the ground. Chanseys were all over the place, picking up injured pokemon or picking up the dead. She continued to look around, and saw the Reuniclus from earlier walking into the TV station. What was he doing?

She also, surprisingly, could see Althalos and another human in the distance. Althalos appeared to be heading for the HR base...

Ali Krista
Jubilife City


Ali was shocked to see Althalos ignore him as he had done. However, Ali shrugged it off, thinking that the poor boy probably had had a traumatic day. Ali walked through the city, through the masses of human and Pokemon corpses alike. His eyes closed, he took a deep breath. They'd have to come back for the dead later; the survivors were more important now.
As Ali walked, he began to recognise faces of men he had fought alongside. The Wartortle he had fought lay on its back, its shattered shell soaked in blood. Opposite him was the corpse of a soldier, female. Her neck was broken and there was a gaping wound in her head, blood splattered unceremoniously on the wall behind her. The sight turned Ali's stomach.

After a while, Ali had begun to notice something about the bodies. It wasn't something he could put his finger on immediately, and it took him a long while to recognise the issue at hand. Suddenly, he ran to the nearest body, searching his uniform. He did the same again and again, and came to the final conclusion that there was something wrong; none of them seemed to have guns.
Ali was completely nonplussed. Had the pokemon raided the soldiers? What would pokemon do with guns, don't they have enough weapons? Ali's thoughts was numb, and so he allowed the queries to settle at the back of his mind while he still had a job to do. He had seen a few men with pictures of their family, hanging loosely in their cold hands. The thought chilled Ali's blood, and he very nearly dropped his gun there and then, to return back to his little house on the beach. His siblings must be missing him terribly.

Ali continued walking, and in his trail of thought he almost collided with Althalos, coming in the opposite direction.
"You wanted something?" The boy asked, his voice shaking slightly.

"What? Oh, yes...Uh..." Ali replied, slowly returning to reality. He looked at the young sniper, who seemed ...odd, even for a minor in a major battle. "...Are you alright, Althalos? You seem a little... on edge."

"Yea, I'm fine, just tired. I sprinted half way to Oreburgh city, then I remembered something." Althalos caught his breath. "I also just did that." Althalos pointed to the army of guns, but didn't look. "I have to go and see the..." Althalos caught himself. It was something slightly personal that he might get in trouble for, so he tried to generalize it. "I'm heading towards our former base here." Althalos said and dumped a little water from his canteen over his head. "You're the one that seems on edge, Mr. Jittery." Althalos gave a half-hearted laugh and dumped the rest of the canteen over his head. He grabbed another from a soldier and saluted to the corpse to show respect, and took a long drink out of it. "If you don't need me for anything, I'll be on my way." Althalos started walking slowly away, so he could hear an answer if Ali did in fact need him.

Rumble
Jubilife City
TV Station

Rumble's enhanced senses were on the lookout. He greeted some passing Chanseys with his worn-out smile he hadn't use in so long and made sure they couldn't see him, when he walked in the building.
He found human bodies in there as well. Not one survivor to squish. He did some investigation on the hall - he didn't find anything interesting apart from an opened computer with a smashed screen, with an internet page. The employee who was now chilling on the floor now was probably communicating with someone. Rumble traced signs of a human communication device in the PC. He had knowledge of this stuff when he investigated the Oreburgh Laboratory/Warehouse.
He did find something - a video was apparently transfered from this computer to another one in Oreburgh. This could be interesting. I might be proven right. Let's see what we got here.. I'll just transfer this video in this CD and watch it later... but now I got to focus on my own plan.
Rumble turned around and headed for the elevator, levitating above a TV camera broken into pieces...

2F. It was a mess there. But he found what he was looking for right away - a working communicator, some talkies, microphones and speakers. Rumble unplugged the machine and carried it on his shoulder, while taking the other things and sliding them through his liquid.

Eevee Form

She had ran through the base by now, and went outside through the doors. Glowing a red light, the Eevee grew larger, taking on the form of a Chansey as the light shattered off her body. Planning to figure out what Rumble was up to, the pokemon walked through the streets in her disguise, heading for the TV station. It would be easy for her to sneak inside. Lydia glanced at the other several Chanseys on the streets. It was a sad sight, as many of them were mending to the wounded or picking up the dead. Once in front of the building, she looked around to make sure no one was watching her, and allowed the illusion to crack into pieces. Lydia looked for an opening to get into the building. She had forgotten why she had the urge to spy on the Reuniclus, but she was already outside, and figured he was already somewhat suspicious. She looked around for a few moments and climbed through an open window on the second floor.

Using her illusion abilities, the Zorua made an image of a clear room as she crept through. Her power was lessening, but by now she was inside, and saw Rumble playing with some of the human devices while sliding them into his liquid body.

"What is he doing?" She thought to herself, never seeing any pokemon behave so strangely. "He acts pretty odd for a pokemon I just met half an hour ago."

She was ready to leave when her dark aura was drained from her previous power, the illusion fading. If she didn't leave, she would be spotted.

"S***."

Lydia faced the back of the Reuniclus from the other side of the room, and with a quick dash, tried escaping from the window, almost slipping as she pulled herself up the wall. It was stupid, sneaking on the pokemon in the first place, but she wasn't in the mood to chat with the guy about why she did so.

"Yea, I'm fine, just tired. I sprinted half way to Oreburgh city, then I remembered something. I also just did that." The sniper replied, pointing behind him to a heap of guns.
"Ah, so that's where they went..." Ali muttered. He could see something scorched on the ground, but from this distance he couldn't see what it was. He wasn't sure he wanted to.

"You're the one that seems on edge, Mr. Jittery," Althalos gave a little laugh, which Ali reciprocated half-heartedly. "If you don't need me for anything, I'll be on my way."

"No, no. Just wanted a hand finding survivors, but if you're busy..." Althalos had walked away when Ali had registered what he'd said. He tried to shout after him but he was too far away to hear, so Ali pulled out his radio.

"Althalos, what do you need in the base? It's gonna be teeming with cocky, celebrating Pokerebels. Be careful, will you?" Ali hung up the radio and walked towards the scorched letters.

"...For those who gave their lives for something that shouldn't have happened." Ali read aloud, before looking back at where Althalos had disappeared. The wise words of the 14 year old wrenched at Ali. This was no place for such a young boy. But then again, Ali was barely older. Althalos was right; they were fighting a pointless war. But he couldn't leave it. Not with a family to protect.

Ali kept walking through the war torn streets. He looked around for movement, hoping to see some survivors. He carried on walking and, not looking where he was treading, tripped over something on the road. Ali scrambled to his feet to see the crumpled body of his Luxray, lying awkwardly on the pavement. To his surprise, tears sprung into Ali's eyes, and he knelt by the side of the pokemon he once had dearly loved. "I'm sorry," Ali whispered softly, his hands on the blood-soaked fur. "Really, I am."
Ali stood, his jaw set. Seeing his old friend seemed to strengthen him, for reasons he couldn't explain. The general walked on, adamant on finding Jack.

Alex ignored mark's question. "You could have answered me ya know." Mark revved the engine and did a U-Turn drift around Alex and sped off. There was rubble and dead soldiers everywhere, it was war alright, but war is never a pretty sight. Mark was thinking about everything that happened at this battle, it stuck in his head, all the death and destruction. The street grew more cluttered eventually preventing the F1 from going above 10 mph which was a pain, he wanted to speed, to get up to the 241 mph top speed. Althalos was blocking the road ahead, causing mark to slam on the brake to drift to a sideways stop. With the car in park, Mark climbed over his two unconscious passengers, Wade and Elixa and opened the suicide door. Now he was on the opposite side of the car as the fellow sniper. "Would you like a ride anywhere before i leave?"

Althalos reluctantly refused the offer for a ride in the exotic car. Before the war, he had loved cars, the sound of a powerful engine, the sleek shapes of the exotics or the powerful boxy shapes of a muscle car. He saw Wade, passed out in the passenger seat but ignored him. There were some things he refused to do, and one of them was release a pokemon in custody. "On your way out, could you please watch for the guns that are up right with the helmets on them? Respect the dead." That was all Althalos said and went on his way. As he was walking, a shiny object caught the light of the setting sun. He walked over to it and picked it up just as Ali radioed in to him. "Althalos, what do you need in the base? It's gonna be teeming with cocky, celebrating Pokerebels. Be careful, will you?" Althalos ignored it for a moment, looking at the object in his hands. He slipped it over his wrist and admired it before calling in. "It's personal, and thank you General Obvious, of course I'll be careful; I'm young, not stupid. Besides, I just found something." Althalos said. He looked closer at the object. Someone had actually taken time to make something from a video game. Althalos tensed the muscle in his forearms and heard a slight click as the muscle pushed a button. A seven inch long, steal two-sided blade sprung out of a crevice underneath his hand. He removed pressure applied pressure again and the blade sheathed itself. This find excited Althalos and he sprinted the rest of the way to the HQ.

As Althalos approached the large building, his excitement dissipated to be replaced with a stony, emotionless expression. All the pokemon he passed looked at him with not resent or hate, but surprise that a human would just walk up to the base. He ignored the looks and the pokemon just stared, not moving to attack. Althalos walked up to the door of the building and gave a cold stare to the nearest pokemon, a swampert. "Take me to your commander. Now." Althalos ordered the pokemon. None of the other pokemon moved, but the swampert walked through the sliding doors and Althalos followed. They walked up a few flights of stairs and the swampert led him to a door. "H-he's in there." The pokemon sounded confused and a little worried. Althalos tossed his sniper, knife, revolver and AK-47 to the ground, but kept the hidden blade on his arm. He walked into the office to come almost face to face with an Arcanine, presumably the commander. Khufu was in the room as well. Althalos nodded towards each of them. "General, commander." Althalos said, knowing well that his being there might be the end of his life. He looked the Arcanine in the eye with a cold stare that he hoped matched that of the fire type. He was extremely nervous, but he wasn't actually scared. "Before I actually do anything, I would like you to know, commander, that if it seems like I respect you, it's because I do. Not because you are stronger, or bigger, or older than I, but because you rank higher. All I came here for was to ask you a question, commander," Althalos said and waited for a response.

"No thanks" Althalos left, going around the car "On your way out, could you please watch for the guns that are up right with the helmets on them? Respect the dead." "why would i run over graves? Do i look like a soulless Bas*ard?" Now the other sniper was out of speaking distance. Mark pulled out his radio. "If you end up in the armory and happen to find a silenced SMG or a combat knife still there, think of me? Oh, and don't get yourself killed, I don't want to have to come in there after you." The next stop before the Evac point was Gen. Ali. He happened to only be a little farther down the road, near a dead Luxray.
He pulled up next to Ali. "General." Mark gave a salute. "What do you want me to do with this?" Mark picked up wade. "I was heading to Oreburgh City, want me to bring him there, or do you want me to stay and help look for survivors,and i don't care which one you want me to do."

Why do I have to be unconscious all the time? his sub-consciousness scolded him in his mind, and Wade had to agree with him. He was about to get into action when all of a sudden he was knocked out. What was happening outside? He had no idea - he couldn't even see since he was unconscious this very moment. He wanted to wake up, but once again, his body didn't listen to his command. Then when he thought about Lydia, his heart missed a beat. Lydia. Where was she? Did anything bad happen to her? And most importantly - why did he leave her there in the battlefield?! Why didn't they go together?


He came to his senses and found himself on a car. An F1. Opening his eyes, he looked around and saw mark Vargas driving. He didn't know who Mark was, but he could tell that he wasn't on his side. Pretending to stay unconscious, he stayed still and closed his eyes. After a while that seemed like forever, the car came to a stop.

"General." Mark spoke, and Wade listened. "What do you want me to do with this?"

Then suddenly he grabbed him and lifted him into the air, but Wade stayed 'unconscious'.

"I was heading to Oreburgh City, want me to bring him there, or do you want me to stay and help look for survivors,and i don't care which one you want me to do." Mark finished and Wade knew he was in a dangerous situation. The General? Ali? Crap...if he continued to play unconscious he knew Ali would tie him up and bring him back to base for questioning. He had to run. Now.

When the General and the soldier were close to each other, Wade suddenly sprang and kicked the two in the face, then scurried into the jungle nearby, running as fast as he could back to Jubilife. He didn't bother looking back - he wanted to get away as fast as possible.

"Please don't find and follow me." Wade growled and spoke quietly, jumping from tree to tree, hiding in the shadows as he headed towards the PR army.

Silence Quickslash
Jubilife City
Former HR Base


Silence was just as surprised as any of the other pokemon when the human she had seen with Lydia and General Khufu earlier came waltzing in, though her stare was much more hostile. She followed as a Swampert led him to the commander and when the man went into the office, she quickly went to the room next door and climbed out the window. She closed the window, leaving it open only a crack so she could get back in. The blue feathered Weavile sidled over until she was sitting on the ledge next to the commanders window. From this position she could both enjoy the view and listen for any interesting tidbits. Though she was sure Hector would notice her sooner or later, she didn't really care. She had to admit, she was curious about why the human had come and she wasn't about to let some fire-type stop her, even if he was the commander of the PR. Especially if she found out why Lydia seemed so determined to be his friend.

As the human devices were inside his body, Rumble's heart pounded as he sensed there was a flaw in his plan. That's it! I was seen entering the TV station...
He heard a slighty noise behind him. He stood still for a moment, put the communicator on the floor, looked back. The room was clear... but he noticed the open window, an idea came through his mind.
Let's see...
He saw the small black Pokemon from before, and he grinned.

Rumble continued gathering more and more pieces of human technology, getting a TV along the way. The Pokemon, looking enormous with a communicator on his left shoulder and a TV on his right, smashed the back-door into pieces, making loud noise. That wasn't needed..
Returning to the usual war scenery, the dead bodies and the dirt everywhere, made him feel like home. But he didn't have a home so he got moving to the nearest building. The devices he was carrying did seem heavy but his arms could handle them. He couldn't lift those with psychic power... his powers had weakened ever since he was using guns. But he didn't care, as long as bullets, flame and paralyzing grenades were hurting more.
Rumble walked a little and found an untouched building at the north-east edge of the city, on the right. He marched in appartment on the highest floor (4th). It was empty of humans. He cleared their desk of small human toys, put the communicator in a corner, replaced their TV with the new one and threw the other out of the window.
Then he removed all the other human devices from his body and put them in the desk. After everything was in its place, he removed his guns as well and started cleaning them.
Heheheh..

Hector Arcturus
Jubilife City
New PR Base

Hector sat as he was about to begin conversing with the General, when he started hearing murmurs around him. Hector looked up to see a human walking up to them. A human. Unarmed, from the looks of it. He simply nodded.

"General, commander."

Hector was prepared to pounce at this human, but he knew he wouldn't meaninglessly sacrifice his life by trying to attack them in the middle of the base. He would get killed. He had to have another reason to come. So for the moment, Hector did not attack.

"You have a lot of nerve, human. It is commendable. What do you want?"

"Before I actually do anything, I would like you to know, commander, that if it seems like I respect you, it's because I do. Not because you are stronger, or bigger, or older than I, but because you rank higher. All I came here for was to ask you a question, commander,"

Hector sounded surprised. He wouldn't expect someone to risk their very lives for a single question. It must have been important to him.

"You came all this way for a question, human? You must either be very crazy, very brave, or a bit of both." Hector sighed. "Speak your question, human. But choose your words carefully. They may be your last."

Hector would decide what to do to him based on what he says. He might kill him on the spot. But he also might spare him, and imprison him. Those seemed like the most likely options. Hector awaited his question, a hint of interest in him, but on the outside, his stone-cold look remained. It was matched by a similar look from the human. Hector someone admired that, for a human.

Lydia
Jubilife City
TV Station Roof


The Zorua watched Rumble from the roof. He appeared to be building a personal hideout. Too bad it wasn't as personal as he would have liked, since Lydia knew exactly where it was. She decided she wouldn't take any further action as long as the little 'home' of his didn't mess with the PR. Climbing down the building, she changed back into her Eevee Form. Her disguise was always fooled due to her red eyes, but she didn't want everyone to know about her powers. She crossed few streets of mayhem. The Chanseys were still busy, but not as busy as earlier.

The Eevee proceeded back to the Former HR Building, and looked to find a huge crowd of pokemon both at the entrance and at the commander's office. Talks about a small boy entering the human base were scattered everywhere. Her eyes narrowed. She was sure it was Althalos. How could he have been so foolish to just barge in? Him being the enemy? Hector would tear him to shreds if he wasn't careful. Or at least take him as prisoner afterward. She walked into the crowd of pokemon, sliding through with ease. Lydia needed to know what was so important that he had to come back. She hid her emotions with a look of surprise rather than worry, asking other pokemon about what he was there for. There was no answer.

"What are you doing, Althalos? Your going to get killed..." she thought to herself.

Ray Maverick June 26th, 2011 7:41 AM

Rumble
Jubilife City
Secret Base

The green, maze-like Pokemon was almost used to his guns being inside his body, and now he felt naked without them. He hung on just a little more, they needed to be cleaned and slighty upgraded. He'd close some gaps so the liquid of his body wouldn't infiltrate the weapons.
Rumble left his weapons in his desk and stared at the computer micros and speakers with his eyes glowing.
I need to change the shape of those and connect them so they fit in my head...
He tore apart the speakers with his telepathy, took the small mechanism and removed the useless parts, making him even more smaller. Then he used his telepathy again to give round shape with two holes to the plastic shell of the speakers -one for the electricity cable, which he could connect to his flashlight's lithium batteries in his left arm and the other one for the microphone- and put the new mechanism inside the new shell.
Then he did the same to the micro, just so it fits in his head.

Althalos Fizen
Jubilife City
New PR base
An office w/Hector and Khufu


Althalos let out a silent sigh of relief when he realized the commander wasn't going to kill him, yet, at least. "You, all pokemon, being the current oppressors of the humans, and this is something for you to think about, not for you to answer. Is it better to die on your feet than live on your knees, or to live on your feet than die on your knees? Think of it as in the position that you are in right now, as the attackers. Think about it from our position, of the weaker defenders too." Althalos didn't break eye contact with the pokemon. He didn't plan to until he left. "I have already said this a few times, but I can't stress it enough, that if I live through this war, when this whole thing is over, I would gladly, gladly, become friends with almost any pokemon again, and that almost is only one that I would rather kill than anything." Althalos turned around and walked to the door, but before leaving, he turned his head back. "I have no idea what any human did to you to make you hate humans so much, but I am sincerely sorry." With that, Althalos left the room.

Althalos walked out of the building, a purpose, unknown even to him, in his stride.He ignored the muttering and the stares that the pokemon gave him as he walked past. As he left the building he noticed the swampert from before, following him. Althalos whirled around to face him. "What do you want?" Althalos asked it, but then noticed it was carrying his weapons, which he had forgotten in his nervousness. "Oh, um, thanks." Althalos slung the sniper around his shoulder, holstered the magnum and grabbed the assault rifle.
"I heard what you said, about being friends with pokemon again. Was what you were saying true, or were you just trying not to get yourself killed?" the water type seemed merely curious. "Every word of it was true. Now get out of here before you get yourself killed for treason." Althalos answered and went on his way.

Ali Krista
Jubilife City


As Ali limped along the streets, a car approached and slid to a smooth halt next to him. Ali gave a low whistle. A McLaren? How come I don't get one? The suicide doors opened and out came a soldier, who saluted.

"Ooh, don't salute." Ali muttered. "It's...Vargas isn't it?"
The soldier held up a very familiar, unconscious pokemon. Wade! Ali gasped, his heart racing.
"What do you want me to do with this?" Vargas asked. "I was heading to Oreburgh City, want me to bring him there, or do you want me to stay and help look for survivors,and I don't care which one you want me to do."

"Well, first of all-" Ali began, but his sentence was cut short. The Umbreon jumped up, and kicked both Ali and Vargas in the face before shooting off. Ali's face swung back, and when he looked up, Wade was nowhere to be seen.

"Damnit!" Ali shouted. "Vargas, follow him! We need him at Oreburgh! This time, f****** tie him up!"
Before Vargas had even turned away, Ali had already calmed himself. If Jack had to wait, then so be it. "Do you want me to come with you?"

ElectricScyther June 26th, 2011 11:04 AM

Khufu shifted his weight uncomfortably at Hector's questions, trying to keep all of them in the front of his mind. He was being asked of his past, which was information he didn't care to bring up for the pain of the memories.

His thoughts tried to piece together his life up until PokeRebel. Fragments of information came through his mind, usually details unconnected to the big picture. "I started life living with a human. Really, I learned a lot with the knowledge of humanity at my disposal. But... something was wrong. My master gave me no forgiveness whenever I made a mistake in my life, which was often." Khufu pulled at the firestone stud he had in his left ear, and his eyes seemed to focus on something else, staring right through Hector.

"He never treated me as an equal, only a slave. When I crossed the line on something important, I realised how he, and all of humanity, viewed us. I ran, never looking back, until I found Magnus." At the mention of Magnus's name, a pang of longing shot through Khufu, and he pulled harder on the firestone stud. "Magnus was a Graveler who, unlike others I had met during my life, actually seemed to care about me. He was the closest friend I ever had. For the first time, I began to feel confident and secure. But it didn't last. Months ago, the rebellion broke out and a human shot Magnus, fatally wounding him. It was then that I extended my hatred of my old master to all of humanity." Khufu shut his eyes tight and took a deep breath.

"So, with no reason not to have revenge, I joined PokeRebel and eventually became a General. But in my time here, I've begun to see something else in humans. They aren't all that bad, Hector. True, they have plenty of bad individuals, but don't we as well?" Khufu did his best to hide his fear, knowing that what he was saying could qualify as treason.

"And as for my skills, well, I'm a good tactician, and not a bad fighter. Good enough, at least, so I can defend myself if I need to."

Hector Arcturus

New PR Base.

"You, all pokemon, being the current oppressors of the humans, and this is something for you to think about, not for you to answer. Is it better to die on your feet than live on your knees, or to live on your feet than die on your knees? Think of it as in the position that you are in right now, as the attackers. Think about it from our position, of the weaker defenders too."

Hector listened intently to him. He kept his eye contact with him the whole time, and the human returned the gaze. The human started heading towards the door, but turned back to say one thing.

"I have no idea what any human did to you to make you hate humans so much, but I am sincerely sorry." With that, he left the room.

Hector pondered his words carefully. Hector knew that not all humans were the same as the ones that did terrible things to him. He had flashbacks of his former life, a life in Team Rocket. The pain he endured, that all endured to humans who were terrible to them. But now, he was the Commander of the PR, and he had a different responsibility now. Whatever this human believed didn't matter, he was still a human. And as Commander, he had responsibilities to do what was necessary, to do what was expected of him. That is why he was chosen to become the Commander. He pondered what Khufu said to him earlier. Not all humans were bad, true, but at the moment, no matter what, they were the enemy. Hector had no choice. He motioned to the Pokemon next to him, around his office.

"Take him. Don't let him escape. No matter what sort of person he is...he's a human. Imprison him in the cells."

With that, Hector turned back to Khufu. There was planning to do, and no idealist human who wanted peace is going to get in the way of their victories. For now, he'll be captured. But later, Hector may decide to execute him. It all depended on the circumstance.

Lydia
Jubilife City
Former HR Base

The Zorua decided she had to leave, knowing that if she asked too many questions about Althalos that the PR members may have suspected something. Turning around, she failed to see Althalos also walking out, getting captured by the pokemon at the same time. She let out a huge sigh as the doors closed behind her. She had to see what Rumble was up to, but this time she didn't want to spy on him. By now, walking in seemed like the best idea. Going to his 'Secret' Base, she walked through the front door to see nothing.

"He has to be on one of the higher floors..."

Peering into the room, she spotted a elevator, approaching it and getting inside. Placing her paw on the button for the 2nd floor, she waited for the doors to open. A few moments later, the doors slid open, to reveal yet again a blank room. Growling, she smashed the button next to it. Going up again, she became more impatient, the next room also revealing nothing of interest. Pressing the next button, she knew that the Reuniclus was on the top floor.

With a 'ding' the elevator hit the top floor, the Zorua walking out with a smile on her face. Rumble was playing around with devices and putting them into his body, primarily his head.

"What are you doing?" she asked laughing, but also suspicious. Her red eyes pierced back at the Reuniclus' own eyes, which were glowing. Lydia continued to talk, "Nice place you got here. Mind if I stick around for awhile?"

"Ooh, don't salute." Ali muttered. "It's...Vargas isn't it?" Mark nodded "I was heading to Oreburgh City, want me to bring him there, or do you want me to stay and help look for survivors,and i don't care which one you want me to do." mark asked "Well, first of all-" Wade jumped up and kicked ali along with mark. Mark lunged forward to catch the umbreon just to end up on the ground, empty handed. "F**K!" mark yelled as he sprung back to his feet. "Damnit!" Ali shouted. "Vargas, follow him! We need him at Oreburgh! This time, f***ing tie him up!" ali finished his sentence "Sir!" before mark turned around Ali asked "Do you want me to come with you" Mark jumped back into the center seat of the car. "What are you waiting for, get your ass in!" With both of them in the car, mark put the car in first and sped off in the direction wade ran in. Mark pulled out his radio and said "Althalos, if you see wade, grab him and tie him up, over"

Ali Krista
Jubilife


"What are you waiting for? Get your ass in!" Mark Vargas yelled, to which Ali obeyed. It occurred to him that, as Mark's superior, he shouldn't be spoken to like that, but now was not time for a battle of authority. The two roared down the road in the McLaren, following where Wade disappeared. The car screeched to a halt outside the wooded area, and Ali cursed loudly.
"Right Mark, how quick are you on your feet?" Ali asked, before exiting the vehicle. He took off his heavy boots and sprinted through the trees, producing his shock gun from under his hoodie. Ali's slight stature allowed him a silent approach, but the Umbreon was much faster and more evasive. Every now and then Ali would see a figure moving to his left or right, but would barely raise his gun in time.
The pokemon was fast. Its blue rings appeared as streaks when Ali saw them, and the bolts of electricity from Ali's gun chased them through the branches. All Ali could do is hope that he got lucky, as he aimed at the enemy running through the trees. This time, I'll get him, He thought, as he pulled the trigger...

Alex pulled out his M4 from his sling and carried it in his hands, ready to fire at any moment. This place is dead, Alex thought as he headed down the street. Other than the occasional noise, he was right. Alex looked up to see a Steelix laying down a block away. Alex jogged over there, not watching carefully for Pokemon. Alex was starting to slow down, just before a Machoke tackled Alex to the ground and began punching him. Alex saw a Model 1887 shotgun just in his reach and picked it up, loaded it and aimed it at the Machoke and fired. the Machoke flew off Alex and landed on a trash can. The Pokemon was bleeding from the Buckshot, but Alex felt no remorse. Alex picked up his M4 and finished off the Machoke. Alex brushed himself off and continued to walk towards the dead Steelix, carefully checking his corners. When Alex arrived at the corpse, he looked around it to find a Human frozen in a block of ice. Alex identified the Human as Jack, the Commander of the HR. Alex felt around in his pocket and grabbed his lighter. He lighted the lighter and attempted to melt the ice. This isn't working, Alex thought. Alex grabbed a piece of wood and tried to set that on fire. The fire wouldn't catch so Alex dumped the wood in a Gas tank, and that lit perfectly. Alex left the piece of wood on top of the ice block, waiting for it to melt.

Althalos Fizen
Jubilife City
streets


Out of no where, pokemon. At least ten. They surrounded Althalos and slowly started to tighten their circle. Althalos leveled the AK-47 and pulled the trigger, spinning as he did so. "Goddammit! I didn't want to kill anyone else today!" Althalos said and tensed his forearm. The hidden blade slid out of it's sheath and he walked over to one of the surviving pokemon, a mightyena. Althalos helped it to stand and grabbed it's snout, forcing it to look at him. "You go back to your commander and tell him he's going to have to try harder to get me." Althalos pushed it away and it ran off, yelping. Althalos finished off the rest of the pokemon with a bullet to the head from the AK. He had never been much for close combat, but he kept the hidden blade unsheathed.
Althalos continued on his way, trying to push his last actions out of his mind. He walked though the deserted streets and as he did, he decided to start standing the guns up again. He walked down the street, sticking the guns up right and putting helmets on the stocks, saluting each. Althalos had just finished putting up the last one on the street and saluted it when he heard a feral growl from behind. two manectric were flanking an Armaldo. The two electric dogs barked and the armaldo silenced them. "You're coming with us, human." It said cruelly. Althalos shook his head and aimed the AK-47, but when he pulled the trigger, it just clicked, it was like the gun was mocking him, telling him he was going to die. Althalos tossed the gun to the ground and held up his arms just as the two manectric ran at him. "You little b*stards, leave me alone!" Althalos shouted as one of the pokemon jumped on him. Althalos raised his arms and the hidden blade lodged itself in the manectrics chest. Althalos pulled his right arm back to find it covered in blood. The pokemon collapsed on him, with a look of surprise in its face. Althalos pushed he pokemon off of him and stood up. "Don't you f**k with me!" Althalos yelled at them. Something hit his back and Althalos collapsed, he rolled over to have his nose touching that of the other manectric. "You are going to pay for killing my brother!" it growled and before it could do anything, Althalos thrust his arm up, stabbing the other one in the chest. He tossed that pokemon off of him and looked at the armaldo. His right shoulder hurt and he grabbed it with his other hand. The Armaldo charged a him and knocked him to the ground. They scuffled for a bit and Althalos managed to disable its right claw. Eventually, Althalos stood over the pokemon, blood dripping from his shirt and face. He couldn't tell if it was his or the pokemons, but he felt like throwing up either way. He tensed his forearm and the blade sheathed. He fell to his knees, crying, and blacked out.

Rumble had just finished putting the device into his ear, when he heard a noise from outside and Lydia marched into the appartment. He raised his head and stared into her red eyes.
"What are you doing?" she asked laughing. She seemed rather suspicious. He just continued staring without saying anything.

"Nice place you got here. Mind if I stick around for awhile?"
"Well. Looks like you've found my secret base. But I don't mind... Have a seat." he said and pointed at the couch. The whole couch shackled, levitated and moved towards her with incredible speed.
Rumble put down his arm at the last moment, he just wanted to scare her.
"Hah.. Seen anything interesting lately?" asked as he was installing his guns again.

"Right Mark, how quick are you on your feet?" Ali questioned Mark. "Just try to keep up, general, sir." Mark sprinted off, 'it's been too long since i got to do parkour', mark thought to himself. He was catching up with his target, that was some pretty good speed there.A big rock was coming up though. "Sh*t". Mark Jumped, using his hand to keep his height. "I'm coming for you wade, Parkour beats all." Mark got closer and closer till he was just a little behind the pokemon. "Ali, keep up please" Mark pulled out his pistol and aimed it at the umbreon. He pulled the trigger to be met with a *click* when a bolt of lightning came. "Oh damn, check fire, Check your fire." mark yelled at Ali. He made it next to the pokemon. "C'mon gimme a challenge, this is to easy."

The couch flew at her when the Reuniclus shot it at her, though it stopped right in front of her face. Her expression didn't change, but she jumped on the counch with a grin. Rumble was installing some guns, talking to her at the same time, "Hah..Seen anything interesting lately?"

"Other than you? Naww, nothing much, but apparently a human entered the PR. Seen anything? Also, you still haven't answered my first question. What are you doing with all of that stuff?"

Lydia looked around the room as Rumble was doing other things. She wondered where Althalos was, and she looked out the window to see nothing. It may have not been Althalos, but she could imagine him doing something similar to this. Why? The Zorua didn't know. Nothing could get through that Arcanine's brain. He was cold as stone. The leader of the PR. Her friend might as well have been dead...

Rumble was quite bothered she wasn't impressed. She's seen a lot today... maybe another time.
Lydia snapped him out of his thoughts when she started talking.

"Other than you? Naww, nothing much, but apparently a human entered the PR. Seen anything? Also, you still haven't answered my first question. What are you doing with all of that stuff?"

He stopped loading the harpoon launcher, stood still to chose his words. Without looking at her, he spoke:
"... That's none of your business... You're quite petty."
Hmm.. did she just say human? Hah.. they'll take care of him in the PR. Wish I was the one who got to do it.

Lydia was looking around the room, outside the window... Rumble tried to peer into her thoughts. He grinned.
"So what happened with that human? Maybe.. you're concerned about them?"
