If you forget about the fact that Shuckle has a base Sp.Defense of 230 which makes just about any special attack futile...*Cough* Poor ol' Shuckie got so underestimated right there...just as an FYI my NB Shuckle took a Water Spout from a full HP Kyogre and kept going. But meh, we'll just assume that the Shuckle was of significantly lower level/disfavourable nature I guess...
Click to expand...

*points finger* You lie!!! Nah, just kidding. ^^ Eh, forgive my ignorance, I have never claimed to be a stats master. Perhaps the Shuckle was the product of poor breeding? With its last breath it probably said, {Curse you Melissa!!} XD

I could edit if you like. Perhaps I shall in a bit.

Anywhoo...

EDIT: YAYNESS! Page 17!

Reina
-------------

'Darn it,' Reina thought to herself, 'That leader's the one we need to get. Once he's gone, the others will follow easily. Blast, where's Tabansi?!' The girl whipped her head around, and glanced at the cobalt bug.

Tabansi was unsure of how to proceed. The Quagsire wasn't too threatening anymore, and he didn't have the crazed look in his eyes anymore. Tabansi figured that the pokemon could perhaps be dealt with easier now. He decided to ignore the blubbery pokemon, coming to the conclusion that he was not well-matched against it anyway, and darting up to Reina's side.

Phoebe and the Donphan were holding their own against each other, though the crazed look in his eyes had gone too, he still seemed angry about the Ninetails' Flamethrower. It had hit him in a sensitive spot, and he although he wasn't evil, he couldn't help but hold a grudge against the fox.

{Reina! Are you alright?} Tabansi asked, his wings clicking with anxiety.

"Yes, my hand hurts a bit, that guy's jaw was hard," Reina replied, rubbing her right hand, and looking at the leader of the robed men, "Let's get him."

Pixie finally made it over, though she was a bit worse for wear and sick to her stomach. The Shuckle that had caught her in its grip had loosened a bit for a moment when the robed men had been attacked. This had given Pixie a small chance of escape, and she took it with a Rapid Spin to burst out of the Shuckle's limbs. She had staggered over to Reina and Tabansi and the poison was taking its toll on her, she had become a bit disoriented. She flopped around helplessly, and Reina quickly returned her to her ball and then looked to Tabansi.

"Looks like it's just us, Phoebe's busy with that Donphan," she said, patting Tabansi's horn. Tabansi nodded and then the two of them separated, Reina approaching the leader from the side, and shoving her way past the few remaining chanters; and Tabansi flying up above him to get an aerial shot.

Reina had to fight a bit to get to where she wanted to be, kicking one man as she pushed past him, and elbowing another in the lower back as she shoved him aside. She wanted the leader, not these guys.

Phoebe was trying to tell the Donphan to knock it off, and noticed the Shuckle that had been after Pixie was now regaining the crazed look. It began to spin toward her, its Safeguard wearing off, but it quickly realized this and put up another. {Hurry Reina, I don't know if I can handle both of them,} she called to her trainer, trying a Confuse Ray on the stubborn Donphan.

Tabansi tried to swoop down onto the leader's head, but the guy was so slippery.... He would never be able to hold him in one place for Reina. He then figured that the best thing he could do would be to appear to want to hit him on the head, but in actuality be trying to cause him to become distracted by all of his swooping. Yes, that would probably work better to his advantage. He continued swooping around the man's head as best he could.

Finally getting up to where the leader was, Reina tried her best to discern where he was going to end up, because she had decided that the only way to do this would be to lunge at him. She would have more of a chance of grabbing him with her arms that punching him with a tiny fist. She took a deep breath and made a leap off of the ground, arms stretched out. It may have been a bit foolish, but that was Reina. Hopefully if her attempt failed, Tabansi or Phoebe could finish him.

EDIT: For teh Shuckle. ^-^

JJ turned his face to the young man
''Yes...you could say that'' he replied, bending down and pulling up his tattered trouser leg to reveal a humungous bruise all around his leg on the knee. He quickly dropped the material and pushed it back down, covering his leg, and stoof back up.

''Now, i think we......''
In mid sentence, the other boy had aruptly turned and began to walk away from them, saying something about following him if they wanted to learn more about these crazy pokemon. Jeffery frowned, already he did not like this guys attitude.

''Whoa, wait just a minute'' he said loud enough so he would hear
''first, i think seeing as were for the moment out of any possible danger, we should do something which I like to call a formal introduction? and then perhaps if it's not too much trouble, talk about this situation, that being, and i'm sure you have noticed by now, that certain pokemon everywhere are going crazy and attacking anyone and anything without warning? how do you think i did this?'' he finished indicating his leg.

He did not mean to sound pompous or rude, but this for all they knew could be just a small thing, or a huge dilema, and they didn't need any Brave knights in shining armour like this guy to jump in thinking he could save the day alone....

OOC - my my, JJ isnt making many male friends now is he :|
although i dont really want a huge fight with ur charcter kogenta, thats just me and valen lol.
 
OOC: Like, yay for 17! Now then Melissa, go ahead and dedicate it to something. ^-^

Yeah, you'd think I was lying, eh? XD But seriously, my Shuckle had a Careful nature (+Sp.Defense, -Sp.Attack), and maximized Sp.Defense EVs, and it, being a Netbattle pok?mon, was of course level 100 with maximal IVs, so in short, it was packing the highest Sp.Defense mortally achievable, because Shuckle holds a signifcant advantage in both defenses towards all other pok?mon, even the oh-so popular Defense Deoxys can't compete on those fields. o.o PH33R Shuckle...the only things that really get to it are set-damage attacks which aren't affected by attack or defense stats. Anyways, I'll try to wrap this up before I go to bed. *Yawns* So sleepy...

IC:

As Reina lunged forward, the leader suddenly turned straight towards her, a self-satisfied smile spreading across his face as if he had expected this all along, his fist suddenly flying straight towards Reina in a well-honed punch, the knuckles, cold and bony though they were, were also extaoridnarily hard, and the girl was approaching with quite significant speed, recieveing the strike straight to her stomach, enough to give almost anyone a pause. The man took this opportunity to send of a last set of chanting tones, a violent tremor suddenly shaking the whole pen, various spectator seats falling off and the entire construction treathening to collapse as a giant creature suddenly burst out from the ground right beneath Phoebe, its long, steel-plated serpent's body striking the Ninetales from below at full force and its tail immediately flying towards Tabanasi in a powerfull Slam attack as it surfaced.

"Come, my disciples." the leader said coldly, leaping straight over Reina in an astounding show of agility, and immediately mounting the Steelix he had summoned, the other robed men scrambling to do the same, each of them nursing their own injuries.

"As for you..." he announced coldly, smirking at the sight of a group of Waiwai Inc. proffessionals approaching the scene from the distance with Lori and Vincent at their peak. "Know that you have only seen the briefest glimpse of what the disciples of Typhoeus can achieve. We are not done with you yet."

With that, the man began humming a peculiar chant into the Steelix's ear, the pok?mon immediately responding by diving back into the chasm it had created on its arrival, soon dissapearing into the darkness with such a rumble that the Quagsire on the street took a few precautionary steps back, its grin faultering for a moment until it was quite sure that the Steelix was gone, at which point it was just about to start another dance, seeing as how the rain had started to dissipate, when something utterly peculiar and rather terrifying caught its eye; it was a boy, his skin looking almost ghostly white, especially in contrast with his dark purple hair and generally dark attire, his right arm covered almost entirely in blood and clutched around a Cubone with an almost overzealous firmness. He was panting quite heavily by the time he arrived, this boy, having to release one of the arms from the Cubone to use it for support as he leant against the wall, looking rather unsteady even as he did so.

Just then, a thunderous roar rattled the windows of the nearby buildings, apparently the Aggron didn't much care that it was no longer spellbound by the chant, continuing to thrash forward out of sheer indignation, doggedly determined to punish the little ground type who had dared to humiliate it so, even as the seemingly endless energy that the chant had granted it seemed to have dissipated, the steel type now showing visible signs of fatigue.

Valen instinctively drew a bit backwards, but he just couldn't go further, merely slumping against the wall. His eyes fell on the Cubone in his arms, the creature having followed the proceedings in silence, staring unblinkingly at him from behind its skull helmet.

"You, try to get away..." the boy muttered, releasing the little ground pok?mon onto the pavement, where it tottered unsteadily in an attempt to stay upright before turning to continue staring at Valen.

"I said go! Scram!" he snapped in aggitation as the Aggron got ever closer, "There's no point in both of us getting killed."

The Cubone continued staring for a while longer before it suddenly shook its head, defiantly turning to face the Aggron.

"You...want to fight?" Valen asked, catching onto the Cubone's drift.

The ground type nodded as decisively as it could, a determined expression spreading across what little was visible of its face.

Valen couldn't help smiling just a bit, gutsy pok?mon never failed to impress him, if even jsut a little, and since it looked like this was going to be his last stand he figured that he might as well go down fighting.

"Allright." the boy replied, turning to face the Aggron as well, the steel type slowing its pace just a bit out of sheer confusion over this sudden change in behaviour.

"Focus Energy and Bonemerang, now!" obviously the ground type was in no condition for charging attacks, and it was probably a good idea to keep a fair distance from that creature and its tail anyway, Valen figured, hopefully the Cubone would not be too tired to aim, with a little luck they could pull this off...

It certainly seemed to be trying hard, shutting its eyes and focusing even as the Aggron drew closer, preparing a Metal Claw with a practically sadistic amount of pleasure.

Just then the Cubone opened its eyes, taking aim for as long as it dared before hurling the thick bone in its hand towards its foe's head, the object swirling through the air and striking its target at the side of the head, hardly a lethal blow by any means but enough to divert its attention as the bone continued on its path, performing an elegant U turn in the air and striking the steel type square in the back of its head, the bone wedging between two of its armor plates and remaining stuck there and the creature, surprisingly enough, staggering from the blow.

Valen suddenly realized that this was his chance, probably the only one he would get, and was quick to act on it, tearing Seirini's pok?ball free from its insolent latch by sheer strength of desperation and throwing it onto the battlefield.

"Seirini! Earthquake now!"

The Arbok was, as always, quick to obey, lunging forward and aiming the whole of her bulk onto a small piece of ground for the second time this day, the resultant shockwave striking the staggering Aggron at its feet.

For a few seconds of suspense, the armored pok?mon simply wobbled unsteadily on its place, its eyes still filled with utter confusion, until it suddenly came crashing down with consdierable rumble, slamming down onto the pavement and causing the groudn to tremble for one last time.

"60 points awarded to Valen Ironholm for KOing an Aggron!" the little device on the creature announced, and the boy almost felt like laughing at the absurdity of it all as he slumped back against the wall, the world quickly blurring and then finally fading to black as his consciousness fled him at last.

[OOC: ^-^;; Alright--though in my most recent post Chain said nothing regarding information . . . ]

Without turning, Chain replied, "I already told you earlier--my name's Chain. And, I'm not forcing you to follow me. Quite honestly, you can do whatever you want. All I know is that I have something to do." "And, I'd like to do it before I get attacked--or WaiWai Inc. catches up with me and arrests me," the trainer added mentally.

Falling silent, Chain turned around a corner and continued down the sidewalk, passing various alleys until he found one that suited him. A fair size, the alley ended with a solid, stone wall and had a slightly uphill slant. Seating himself on a wooden crate at the alley's end, Chain removed several mechanical devices from his pocket and the pouch at his side. Checking one, Chain's eyes glimmered with satisfaction. It seems Porygon's repairs are complete. The male aligned the ports of two devices with one another, transferring Porygon to another object. Then, placing the computer in which Porygon now resided, in his palm, Chain attached a data storage device--the one on which WaiWai Inc.'s files were saved. "Circuit, begin recompiling the raw data into readable files. Display any new files on the screen along with the ones already in readable format." A series of beeps indicated the Porygon's progress as a list of files appeared on the miniature computer's screen.

Selecting a file, Chain's eyes darted to and fro as he began to read.

Whoa.. The last Shuckle I faced gave the others a bad name, then. It went down in like two Iron Tails. o_O

As Odie steadily began to calm himself a bit, Avery looked up to watch Chain round the corner, to do whatever it was that he had wanted to do. He seemed to know a lot, that one--but she eventually confirmed to herself that it was best not to get involved in anything that seemed like a conspiracy..

Good God, Cona's rubbed off on me..! Avery thought to herself, putting Odie down where he originally was on the ground, the Umbreon losing whatever state of serenity he had just experienced, now running around in circular patterns on the pavement. Shortly afterwards, Avery could've sworn that she heard a distinct crashing sound somewhere ahead.. Not to mention the faint roaring sounds she had been hearing in that direction lately. Curious..

"Come on, JJ, didn't you hear those dreadful crashing noises?" Avery said aloud, turning to face the boy for a few moments before turning around in the opposite direction and beginning to walk away.

"Confuse Ray." She stated firmly, when a random Skarmory decided to swoop down upon them. For a few seconds she thought the expression on its face was a bit funny.. As if it were just waking up from a dream and didn't know where it was. Nonetheless, a single Confuse Ray from the Umbreon near her feet was enough to send the Steel-type flying off awkwardly in another direction.

Avery didn't bother giving chase.

She didn't give a second thought as to why she had been so firm in her latest command.

Yes, she wasn't afraid of the many Wild Pokemon she knew were lurking out there. She had no fear for them anymore.

No.. She wasn't afraid.. She was pissed.

Someone had induced Diamond's behaviour, and she wanted to find them and beat them with a shoe. Or something.
 
Ooc-
Like,yay,I managed to read finish all those posts.XD

Anyway,the chant's aren't working on the Ground types anymore?Feebas,and I was having so much fun with Krys too.;_;

Ic-

{One little,two little,three little Feebas!Four little,five little,six little bozzes!Seven little,eight little,nine little cans of soda!Ten little cheeses in a row!}Krystal waved his arms above his head,turning round in a circle once every few steps as he tried to keep up with Cona.It was rather hard considering that the girl was spinning and going in and out of focus here and there.

{Laddie!Stop twiddling round' and round' will you?!}Kuner managed in between gasps of air,trying to make out where his trainer was.For the last few minutes,they had tried their best to dodge all the pokemon which had come their way..Whether they were crazy or not,it didn't matter,all the girl wanted to do was to get to the chanting.

"You guys need to be faster!"Cona frowned as she bent down beside the Marshtomp before realising that an Anorith was heading right for her,its two front claws gleaming in the sunlight.In one mighty swish,it scratched the girl's cheek with a...Scratch attack.
So what if it wasn't a powerful attack?It still hurt!

"What was that for?!"Cona clutched the cut which ran in down in a thin line on her left cheek.{No one hurts BOZEEH!!!!}Krys immediately called out,letting out a thunderous roar before slamming himself hard against the pavement.With Kuner attached to his head,too scared to move,the Ground type charged blindly towards the ancient pokemon.

The Anorith however ignored the mudfish at first,too busy dancing in a circle-{THE AGGRON'S COOOOMING!!!THE BIG SHINEY AGGRON!!!!}the bug type called out,foam coming from where its mouth was located,just between those two sharp claws.It was cut off as Krystal headbutted him(not a Headbutt attack mind you.XP),using Endeavor once more.

{YEAH!!YEAH!!!WHO'S YO' GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDDADDEH!?}Krys yelled at the top of his lungs,bouncing on the Anorith's dazed body just like the Lickitung's.

Cona managed a weak smile,unlike the look of pure uneasyness on her Pidgey's face.Suddenly,out of the corner was Avery's voice,then that of Jeffery's.There was one more,though seemingly more muffled than the other two.The girl then noticed that her Marshtomp was..

{Whoa,whoa.What happened?Where's the cheee...-?}Krystal shook his head,as if he had just come out from a trance.He finally realised the many scratches and bruises,aches and pains on him.The Marshtomp let out a groan,falling back onto the fainted Anorith.

"Avery?Jeffery?"the girl said softly,with her now surprisingly quiet Marshtomp in one arm,she walked up before rounding the corner just in time to see Chain moving off,leaving Avery and Jeffery.The eyes of the girl widened at the state her friends were in.

"Eh!!Are you two alright?"Cona rushed over without a greeting,she automaticlly took out a roll of bandages from her bag.

"We can go and find out about what happened to Valen and the rest after this.For now,lets bandage that evil looking scar Jeff.Evil sprits from the outer reaches of the realm could posess you without proper treatment."she said firmly,continuing by tearing off a piece of the bandage and prepared to wrap JJ's knee with.Anyway,by the look of Valen,he might have gotten out of this with nothing but a single scratch.Feebas,was she wrong.

OOC: I dedicated the page to Shuckle. And go little Cubone! Cubone are one of my favorite pokemon. ^^ They're so cute and tough and sad at the same time. An interesting mix.

I knew that leader guy would run off. He seemed too smart to be taken down by a teenage girl. Darn him! XD


Reina
-------------------

A punch to the stomach seems like an easy thing to take when you say it, or see it, but to feel it is something very different altogether. Reina doubled over after the leader had effectively done what felt like smashing her stomach into her backbone.

Phoebe had been effectively thrown about ten feet, and was dazed and sore. She sincerely hoped that Reina had some potions with her, because she could use them. A Steelix was luckily a pokemon that she had the type advantage with, though types didn't seem to matter when a bulky, enormous pokemon slammed into your body. She lifted her head for a moment, feeling very sleepy, {R- Reina...? Are you okay?}

Reina looked up, feeling very nauseous and very dizzy, she kept looking at the ground, considering the feeling she had to vomit. She just nodded to let Phoebe know that she would be alright instead of speaking; that might bring that shake she drank earlier right back up.

Tabansi had held up the best out of the three, the tail had hit him hard, and he was hurting, but he had more experience than the rest, and a hard shell too. A shell was a better protector than fur or skin, that much was for sure. He flew over to Reina with a wobble in his flight path, saw that she would be okay with a little bit of time, and then looked over the destroyed pen, wondering where those guys could conjure all those pokemon from anyway.

The Shuckle was released from its crazed state, and stared about looking at its surroundings through dull, confused eyes. The Donphan, who had also been hit a bit by the Steelix, had finally gotten some sense knocked into it, and no longer glared at Phoebe.

Wobbling more as he flew down to the street over to where the Aggron lay on the ground, Tabansi was quite amazed with how the awesome pokemon had been knocked out. He turned around and then saw a Cubone, a familiar Arbok, and Valen slumped against the wall.

{Oh dear!} Tabansi said weakly. He landed near the Arbok and Cubone, looking Valen over. Hopefully the two pokemon didn't think he was here to hurt their trainer. Well, he assumed that the Cubone was Valen's.
 
JJ looked down at his feet, slightly embarassed, he looked back up to Chain
''Im sorry'' he said, and he meant it too
''I'm just quite a bit on edge.....with all this going on, it hurts me to see pokemon act like this....even my own pokemon has started on like it, im just thanjing god that my others seem to not have been effected'' he finished indicating Taillow and Grovyle

{LIke dude, no evil power is gonna take away my sence of control, that would not be narly at all}

{Dont count on that happening any time soon}

JJ observed his two pokemon with a look of relief. then again, there was one more pokemon that he was yet to see if it had been effected.....but perhaps this wasn't the best time, or place to find out.

''Yes i did actually...'' he said matter of factly, turning back to face Avery ''but what was it? and......''

all of a sudden, who should come round the corner, but none other then Cona, she was carrying her motionless Swampert who looked like it had defenitely seen better days. Cona observed the 3 of them, before resing her pokemon against a wall and madly running up to JJ, she began to pull banadages out of her bag and wrapping them around JJ's knee

''aaaaaghck!!'' JJ cried in pain as she forced the bandage around his knee and folded it VERY tightly.
Taillow flew down and started to inspect her work

{like, this chick sure knows what she's doing, go on girl, a lil harder, this dude can take it}
''NOT.....quite neccacary.....'' Jeffery very quickly said, forcing a smile
''it uuuum, it feels great!, thanks'' this was a kind of a lie, it wasn't feeling any better as of yet, but her intentions were defenitely very nice, and bandages would proberly help it to heal quicker.
He leant against a wall and smiled at her, but his smile was shortly worn as he was very shocked to see, just ahead, walking generally past them....a Gravler...
''but.......I saw that same Gravler battling furiously with avery's Lairon, it had gone mad, like the others....and now.....it's fine?''

He turned to face the others, ''does anyone think there is a certain pattern between which pokemon go crazy? something they all have in common? only some pokemon are going crazy, but now....there not.....WAIT!''
JJ suddenly blurted out mid sentence
He closed his eyes and listened hard...but nope...he could no longer hear that eery noise, like some sort of egyptian chant going on. He hadn't noticed that at first because he has adgusted his ears to it, but now that he was trying to hear it, its mystical sound was no longer there, and it had happened pretty much the exact same time as that Gravler had stopped going berserk...perhaps.....

''Grovyle, please return, i will need your help later and need you to keep your strength up.......Ill be fine!'' he finished as Grovyle was about to debate otherwise. The pokemon sighed
{as you wish} it said, and allowed itself to be transported into the sphere pokeball JJ was now holding. He looked at Taillow who was dreamily flying around, it turned to face the Pidgey on top of Marshtomps head
{like!! heeeeey duuuuude! your a flying pokemon tooo! well thats just narly dude! we just rock on don't we!}

*Perhaps Taillow would be of more use out of it's ball* JJ thought as he reached his hand into his inside pocket and instead pulled out a pokeball containing a pokemon. He enlarged it and dropped it the floor, upon contact it burts open in a stream of light, releasing once again, his darling pokemon

{Whoa! Im back! Yay!.....whoa...i look soooo good in the sun!}
the cute Corsola said.
JJ began to observe it all over, he reached down and picked it up off the floor and raised it up in the air to look at her from angles

{Daaaaaaaad! your embarassing me! put me down!} she ordered
''are you feeling ok?'' he asked with concern ''only earlier on you looked like you were having a fit princess....''
{I did?....} the water type said in shock {I don't remember that dad....perhaps you imagined it....like! can we go shopping now?!}

JJ smiled and put her down ''you'll never change.....but at least your ok''
 
{ooc| Whups, I missed a lot ^^; I was planning to have Rosairie spy on the aggron... no chance of that happening. xD Anway, I can't really post in character until Mika does and she won't be on until very late tonight -if she gets on at all...}
 
Avery turned around and blinked at the sound of Cona's voice. After she had just gotten through with that thought..

Sure enough, there she was, Krys and Kuner with her as always (although they both looked a bit worn, Krys having the most injuries), now wrapping a bandage around JJ's knee, the boy proceeding to yelp slightly because they were being wrapped too tightly.

"Once that's done, could we hurry up go check out those weird sounds? Sorry, I'm just particularly angry at the moment. Don't think much of it." Avery stated, once she had waited a few moments for Cona to wrap the bandage.

{Angry..} Odie repeated, sitting down on the ground while he waited as well. {Avery hasn't been angry in.. like, forever! This is not fun anymore.} The Umbreon stated, looking back towards the others.
 
OOC: Like, yay Shuckle! ^0^ Oh if only their HP was a bit better...they'd be friggin' invincible. XD Although even as they are, they still are tons of fun. Nyuk, nyuk...you wouldn't believe what kind of damage my CB Shuckle caused. Random fact; Shuckle's Attack and Sp.Attack are both the weakest in the game. Yeah, you must have run into a weak one, Plushie, to take it down so easily. Although I have to admit, I doubt that the Kyogre I faced really had reached its full Sp.Attack, because as I recall the moveset was Water Spout, Dive, Hydro Pump, and Blizzard, which pointed heavily towards it being a clueless N00B set so the nature was probably Hardy (No change) and the EVs had the usual 85/85/85/85/85 split. Still, taking a full-HP Water Spout is no small feat. Go shuckle!

And I agree, Cubones are cute. Always wanted to have one in an RP but didn't ever actually get to it until now. ^-^

Anyways, the lead bad guy always escapes from the first battle, ne? That's practically a law of the RPing universe. XD Okay, granted he isn't the leader of all leaders but he's still pretty dang leading.

But, moving on...

IC:

As Tabanasi approached, Seirini immediately coiled herself defensively around her trainer, just in case the Heracross would try to hurt him, watching suspiciously as the bug type went about its bussiness and nudging the boy in an attempt to wake him up. This didn't work particularly well however, as the boy merely managed a few mumbled sentences, his head lolling back and forth under the pressure but stopping the moment it gave up and striving to slump back to its original position.

{Valen...} the Arbok hissed quietly, noting to her relief that there was still a hearbeat to be felt, {You there.} she turned her attention to the other pok?mon in her sight, which basically amounted to the Cubone who had helped Valen, the Quagsire who was still lolling about, peering curiously at the scene but immediately beginning to sneak of at the serpent pok?mon's words, and Tabanasi {Wo isss resssponsssible of thisss?} the poison type's voice was clearly upset and angry at the same time as its eyes flicked across the assembled pok?mon in search of a culprit, {Who hasss harmed him?! Anssswer me!}

{It-} the Cubone, a male if the voice was anything to go by, was about to speak up but halted himelf, realizing that he actually had very little to go on. What had happened? He remembered finding himself in front of an Aggron's raised tail, being flung through the air, fearing for his life as the steel type closed in for the kill...and he remembered being rescued. Yes, that boy had definitely rescued him, and they had fought the Aggron together and defeated it. But...who had hurt the boy in the first place? Now that he thought about it, the ground type realized that he didn't really know, he knew that the Aggron had wanted to hurt him, yes, wanted to hurt both of them, but was the steel pok?mon responsible for those injuries? Ohh...it was all very complicated and hard to take in at such a short notice, and the throbbing headache he was experiencing wasn't helping much.

{It what?!} Seirini demanded, now focusing her attention on the Cubone, {Ssspeak!}

{It-it could have been that one, maybe...} the ground type replied weakly, attempting take a precautionary step backwards from the aggitated serpent and ending up falling rather painfully on his already sore backside, {That-that Aggron...} he pointed at the fallen steel type with his finger, the bone still firmly wedged into the back of the armored pok?mon's neck {I-I don't know, though, this...is all very confusing...oh me, oh my, yes, very confusing indeed...}

Reina
---------------

Tabansi studied the Arbok for a moment, thinking about how best to answer. {Yes I believe the Cubone is right. Your trainer wanted to lure the Aggron away from this place so that Reina and I could attack the robed men controlling the pokemon. So I think it safe to assume that the Aggron inflicted the... oh...,} the bug said slowly, his side beginning to ache. He ignored the pain though and continued to talk.

{He looks like he's lost a lot of blood. We should look at that arm of his,} he suggested, coming closer to the Arbok. He tried to look as if he was harmless, which was quite true in the state he was in, and his wings clicked a little as he took a step.

------------

Meanwhile, Reina was feeling a little better in the area of nausea, though worse in the area of pain. Straightening up all the way in her posture was not an option, and so she kept herself a liitle hunched over. She had returned Phoebe, figuring the Ninetails wouldn't be much use to her in that condition, and then began to try and find Tabansi. "Tabansi...," she choked out, "Where'd you go? Ugh... my stomach hurts. I think it'll be a while before I eat again."

Reina distinctly remembered a time she had been playing with her older brothers, and one of them had acidentally punched her in the stomach. It hadn't hurt as much as this, but at least the feeling wasn't unfamiliar. She then saw the toppled Aggron and began making her way slowly over to where Tabansi, Valen's Arbok, the Cubone, and Valen's limp body were. Very slowly, as her mid-section was still aching terribly.
 
{You can sssee it jussst fine frome there!} Seirini snapped, coiling herself slightly tighter around her trainer and shooting the Heracross a treathening glare.

{Umm...} the Cubone interjected, {I don't think-}

{No-one isss expecting you to think!} the Arbok interrupted, now shooting the ground type a glare as well, {Ssstranger! Nobody! What do you know about valen?! What do you know about anything?! Ssstay aware from thisss!} the serpent's tail lashed out in sheer agitation, accidentally striking one of the pok?balls on Valen's belt, the object dislodging and falling onto the ground, releasing its occupant in a flash of white light.

As she entered the outside world, Kachiko gave a wide yawn, scratching her head and peering curiously at her surroundings, eyes still half-shut and a blissfull smile on her face, {Oh, hi peoples...} she said, giving the assembled pok?mon a sleepy wave, her smile remaining as she still seemed to be very much oblivious to the situation, {Papa...} she said drowsily, tugging the boy's pant leg, {Papa...did I really have to get up already? I was having such a nice dream about pretty butterflies and-} the Mawile suddenly stopped in mid-sentence, her smile dying down as she noticed that the boy wasn't reacting, {Papa?} she repeated anxiously, tugging at the boy's pant leg again, {Papa? Why won't you wake up?} the expression on Kachiko's face had now turned to a mixture of sadness and confusion as she turned to the others, Seirini still remaining speechless, unable to phrase up a snappish remark, {Why-why won't papa wake up?} the Mawile inquired anxiously, directing the question to the other pok?mon as she shuffled from foot to foot, one hand still holding on to Valen's pant leg.
 

Reina
----------------

{Oh come now, I'm not here to hurt the boy! What would I gain from that?} Tabansi snapped, getting a bit frustrated with the Arbok's attitude. He paused for a moment though, and figured that the snake must be a bit frightened about the whole situation, no doubt the Arbok was afraid that Tabansi was going to finish the Aggron's job.

{Look, he really must get some help. He's only going to get worse,} the bug said, his voice trying to sound softer than before, {If you're afraid I'll hurt him, then look at the arm yourself. You should find something to tie around the wound he has to stop the bleeding. That way he won't loose any more blood.}

Tabansi knew these procedures because he had learned things like this when he had traveled for a time. He had once encountered an injured boy and the boy's grandfather was with him. Observing them from above, he heard the old man describe what was to be done with the large gash in the boy's leg as he tied a ripped piece of the boy's shirt to his wound.

Reina had finally made it over to them, approaching slowly not out of caution but out of pain. "Ouch... that smarts. Whoever that robed leader guy was; I've now added him to my list of people to beat up," she grunted, looking over to Valen's limp form, and the anxious Arbok.

"Oh boy. Looks like he got it worse than I did," she said, and then looked at the frightened Kachiko. Tabansi would have answered her questions, but he was busy worrying about Valen and the large snake leering at him.

"Kachiko, he'll be all right. Just give him some time; he was being chased down by a rampaging Aggron after all. He's just... very sleepy," she half-lied, not really wanting to explain passing out to a child. She noticed the tenseness between the Arbok and Tabansi and sighed, "Ah great." This is just what she needed, more out of their mind pokemon picking on Tabansi. Granted, this one had a reason, but she was quite tired of being on the defensive for today. "Back off Tabansi," she said to her Heracross, who looked at her with a shocked expression, "It's obvious the Arbok doesn't like you, so back off. We don't need you two going at it."

Tabansi nodded reluctantly, and stepped back, his wings clicking in frustration. He was just trying to help.
 
Although she obviously wanted to believe Reina's explanation, Kachiko didn't smile anymore, her expression having turned solemn as she heard Tabanasi's words. {You is saying that to make me feel better.} she stated to the girl in a very serious voice, {But papa is in trouble, yes? That's what the cool bug person said.}

{Becaussse of thessse ssstrangersss no doubt!} Seirini interjected, still continuing to glare suspiciously at the girl and her Heracross, {They are all the sssame! All big wordsss and empty promisssesss until you do what they want! But they can't be trusssted!}

{Sei-sei!} Kachiko cried out, putting her hands on her hips while taking on an abnormally serious expression, in fact, it was one of an authority figure scolding someone, {You are being a big poopie head! The cool bug person and the pretty tall person are nice and they helped me to find papa!}

{Sssilence brat!} the Arbok hissed back, turning her glare to Kachiko, the Mawile not giving up an inch.

{No!} she replied firmly, {I is not letting papa get hurt because of you being a poopie head! Bed time now Sei-sei!}

The Mawile suddenly shut her eyes, beginning to sing a calm melody at the Arbok, the serpent's eyelids quickly turning heavy despite her struggling, the poison type's head soon collapsing onto the ground, still tightly coiled around her trainer even in her sleep.

{There...sleep tight Sei-sei...} the Mawile said in a voice that once again sounded kind, patting the sleeping Arbok on the head before turning to Reina and Tabanasi.

{Now we help papa.} she said simply.

OOC: Yeah, I'm allowing the use of XD moves too. Besides, Sing is precisely the kind of attack that Kachiko would use. ^-^
 
OOC: Sure... uh, XD moves... *tries to look like she knows what everyone's talking about with XD, but has actualy never played the game* I'm getting around to renting it!! >_>;


Reina
---------------

Smiling at the intuitiveness of the little Mawile before her, Reina told herself not to try that sort of trick again. The little one was obviously more mature than she had originally thought.

Tabansi nodded, {Right, at least someone is in their right mind. Thank you Kachiko, how brave of you.} He stepped up to Valen, along with Reina, who also moved forward, looking at the state of the poor boy and being careful to mind the sleeping Arbok. She looked around to Kachiko.

"You can come up and have a look too if you'd like Kachiko," Reina suggested to the Mawile. She didn't want the child wandering off again, though she doubted that she was about to leave her Papa.

{It looks pretty nasty, but if we stop this bleeding he should be fine,} Tabansi said, {Hm... I need something to tie around him.}

"Oh you're going to tie off his arm? With those funny-shaped Heracross hands, huh? I don't think so Tabansi. Lemme see...," Reina said, digging through her pack, and bringing out an extra shirt, "Hope he likes navy blue." She ripped a good portion of it off, and then looked at Valen's arm. It was quite scratched up, and the biggest of them was bleeding quite profusely, while the smaller ones were oozing, but not as immediate of a concern as the large one.

"Okay... um, here," the piece of cloth was large enough to tie on both the large scratch and just above. She figured that would at least slow the bloodflow, but as to him being unconsious, that was something she couldn't remedy on her own.

She looked around, and many people and pokemon were still in an alarmed state of chaos. Some had figured out that whatever had happened had passed, but many were crying or frightened. Calling out for help wasn't exactly going to work here. All they could really do was to try and revive him somehow.

"So how do you suggest we revive him Tabansi?" Reina asked, clutching her stomach a bit as a pain shot through it.

{Hm... let's try to get him up a bit and see if he can walk with assistance,} the bug suggested, thinking hard.

"Are you sure? I don't think I can lift that much weight...," Reina replied, feeling a bit unsure. She wasn't feeling the best, and to have to support another's weight....

{You're right. Hm, then we need to find something that can carry him. If only Phoebe was in better condition,} the bug puzzled, unsure of how to proceed.

"Well, let's get him sitting up properly, the way he is now looks very uncomfortable, it's probably hurting his back," Reina suggested, grabbing onto Valen's mid-section. This move proved a bit difficult with the Arbok wrapped tightly around him, but with a little pushing and help from Tabansi they managed to get him into a normal sitting posture. She looked back at Kachiko, "Don't worry, he just looks a bit beat up. I don't see anything too wrong with him." She was being truthful this time, she could see minor things, but nothing looked too serious.

{ooc| Gah, I'm posting... I'm fed-up of waiting for Mi-Mi. I'll just rant at her when she gets online again... xD If I get anything wrong, kill me.}

Rosairie crept through the narrow streets, her gaze fixed stubbornly ahead. She was annoyed. Mitten's reflect had protected them this far, but now the shield was flickering and the battles that waged all around showed no sign of stopping. Rosairie bit her lip, and glanced back at Henna.
"Henna, this is getting worse!" she wailed, as a geodude threw itslef into the barrier and bounced back again, "What are we going to-?" before she could even finish her sentence, the insanity seemed to come to a halt. An Onix froze in mid-rampage, only to find himself crushing his trainer. A mawile froze with her huge jaws locked around her trainer, and began to cry. Rosairie and her Magmar exchanged glances.
{I have no idea what happened, but it's certainly over...}
Silence nodded, and darted ahead. He had come alive since the battle had started, and the jolteon trotted in front of the girl, light on his feet.

They proceded through the streets, Rosairie still dragging Kyoko behind her.
Then Silence froze mid-step, and began to whine again. He ducked behind his trainer, his sense of purpose evaporating like water on hot paving stones. He could smell something up ahead, something not quite right. Slowing their pace, Rosairie and Henna approached the corner. The reflect stuttered and failed, and Henna stuck her head around the wall.
{Hey, Rosairie,} Henna laughed, {It's your best friend.} her voice was dripping with sarcasm, but Rosairie failed to notice it.
"Really? Alice's here? She must have come to cheer me on, let's-" she turned the corner, and her eyes fell on Reina. Rosairie's expression faltered. "Henna, wha..." then she noticed Valen, sitting on the floor with an arbok for a belt. The disgust she felt at the sight of him was quickly replaced by fear. dead...? No...unconcious...
"What happened...?" she asked, putting a hand to her mouth.
 
OOC: A short postie.


Reina
-------------

"What happened?" Reina repeated with a frown, "Isn't it obvious? That brute of an Aggron went berserk and almost smashed everything in sight to pieces. It seemed to want to get Pap-- er, Valen." Reina paused for a moment, she had been thinking in Kachiko mode, so she had accidently let slip the Mawile's special name for him. Now she probably looked really weird.

"I don't think it hurt him too bad; just knocked him out and beat him up a bit," she continued, nodding to Rosairie. Yeah, it looked bad, but the blood made it look worse than it really was.

This was just great. The only person to show concern about the situation and it's... her. Reina tried to tell herself to be nice, because if she made the girl mad, she might just decide to leave, and Reina might need her help should Valen try to move and not be able to, or his Arbok wake up and pounce on Reina. Yep, just great. Why couldn't it have been one of the others?
 
OOC - not much I can do IC here, JJ just asked a question lol.
Titan, just something for future relevance, in your opinion, as you know whats gonna happen next with the story, would it be better if the whole lot of us got together any time soon, or waited till later?

OOc-

And yeah,the Trainer card's great too.A Swellow!You have a,like,Swellow!Yayness!^^


Ic-

Cona ignored JJ's yelps as she bound the bandage round his knee tightly.Hey,it was the only way to get him to stop talking for once,right?Anyway,he was hurt and well,Cona wasn't the type to see anyone she knew hurt.Ripping the end of the bandage from her own roll,Cona got up from her position on the pavement.

"Are you okay?"she turned to Avery,wiping her face once.It was just then that she realised that not only was there a cut,but dirt had gotten on her face as well.The trainer frowned,proceeding to store the bandages back into her bag for later use.

{Laddie!Your...slang is totally cold!Could you perhaps teach this old Pidgey how to 'chill' with the out-crowd?}Kuner had been cleaning his feathers(on Cona's shoulder),all over was where the aches and pains were.The Tailow infront of him had this particular way of speaking.Infact,he spoke exactly in the way the Flying type had heard others speak.{And,yes!I am a Flying type!}the bird continued,getting into a dignified posture by placing one wing onto his dusty chest.{Ouch..}Kuner withdrawed the wing to his side,darn,no matter where,it was all the same.He hurt all over.

{I was just..just counting my cheeses.Then,then it all went dark...}Krys mumbled from one side.His trainer had placed him against the lampost to her right as she bandaged Jeffery.The Marshtomp felt sleepy and confused.He had all these multiple bruises,but could only remember few.The remainging injuries,he was still pondering on how he had earned them.

"Yes,we should go and check out the source of those mind-controlling chants.I last heard them coming from..that direction."Cona nodded at Avery's statement,pointing to the East.

"That is,if Jeffery can continue."she added,bending down to carry her Marshtomp back into her arms like a baby.After all,it wasn't good to leave an injured friend behind while they went and most probably would get themselves killed.No way.

Atleast they'd have another person to bring down with them.
