Rex

Loud noises are one of the worst ways to wake up. Rex leaps up in surprise, smacking his head against the ceiling. He stumbles outside, looking around for the source of the fracas. And what does he see? Gray threatening murder and Tulip being a drama queen.

Sigh.

"Gray, shut up. Tulip, if you jump I'll just catch you. Now are you two going to stop overreacting, or does Uncle Rex need to take off his belt?!"
 

"Goodmorning Rex." she says smiling.

"No you fucking wont catch me!" she pouts.

"Uncle Rex...why was that sexy..?" she said quietly.

"Uh... we need to find Arryn and Shadow." she stated tossing her blonde hair. "Rex you should carry me and we should go find Shadow and Gray can go find Arryn..."
 
Shadow:

After thinking he was home free on the bottom steps, a poison jab caught him in the side. Shadow was sent flying into a wall. He had already let his speed drop, thinking Team Rocket would listen. He quickly jumped back, holding his side. He didn't think the Poison Jab had been powerful enough to poison him 100%, but he wouldn't be able to move as quick.

"Damn it. I knew I shouldn't have let any of you survive," he said as nine others joined the man who had used a croagunk to attempt to poison him.

"Not so tough now are you? Not all of us were so accepting of a freak getting away."

Shadow looked at the ten cowards as they got closer.

"I gave you a chance to live and you spit on my mercy. I guess that is my own fault for letting you murderous freaks live. But I will not make that mistake again. Poison has little effect against a dark type. All you managed to do is piss me off." Shadow spat as he slowly reached for his necklace and took it off and placed it in his pocket.

Pure Power activated once again and his speed boost kicked in for a stage increase. He pulled out both of his swords. The purple-black cloak covered his body once again and his eyes turned a purple color.

"Even with a lower speed, I am still faster than a normal human can handle." Shadow said as he pointed at some lighst and blew them out with aura spheres.

"And a human can't see like I can in the dark." Shadow said as shadows enveloped all of them.

"W....where he go." One questioned.

Before anyone else could say anything, he was in the center of them. They couldn't see him, thus not having a chance to act and within five seconds, all of the men and the croagunk were pretty much dead. The one who had attacked him at the start was impaled on his sword, still alive, gasping for breath.

Shadow got closer to the man's ear. "Now... you will die the rest of the way." Shadow put a hand on the mans stomach and summoned an aura sphere and the man went spinning through two floors and then came crashing back down onto the ground floor with a great stomach sickening thud.

Shadow's power started to disappear as he sheathed his swords and struggled to catch his breath. He had used up too much power and the poison was starting to mess with his body, He slowly walked out and stumbled onto the sidewalk where he fell. His muscles burned as he struggled to put his necklace back on and pulled himself across to a light pole where he sat up and slowly pulled a Pecha Berry out of his bag. He wasn't sure why he did what he did. But he knew he did the right thing. He took a bite of the Pecha Berry and the juice squirted over his clothing.

"Thank Arceus I know what berry does what. I am glad I know my berries." Shadow said as he felt the poison being purged from his system things to the pecha berry.

Now he waited. Trying to think of what would happen next.

Gray

...

Rex and Tulip annoy me. I hate them. But I don't hate them as much as I hate Shadow... Well... I don't hate them, But I don't like them. Rex and Darren are Powerful, I'll admit. Tulip, I see as a weakling, But her Power makes it almost impossible to assault her... That's Not strength, But it is a good defense. Rex... He managed to take out the basement and get the job done... He's reliable. Darren... All though he doesn't talk much, He has proven himself with the severed head... He shows No mercy...

Rex and Tulip seem to be rather, emotional... Time to put them to the test...

"Tulip. Rex." I said, to get their attention. "I'm going to kill shadow. The only way to stop me, is if you kill me." I said to them. This will test their loyalty. Will they choose Shadow, or me? "Will you kill me? Or let Shadow die?" I asked them, giving them a serious look.​
 
Rex

Rex growls in frustration as he goes down the stairs. Normally he could handle Tulip's meaningless flirtation and Gray's self-aggrandizing death threats. But with Gray apparently more serious about killing Shadow than he's ever been, dealing with him will be harder than ever.

By the time he reaches them, Rex has formulated a plan, and is calm once more. "If you're hellbent on killing Shadow, there isn't much I can do to dissuade you, is there? I could break your legs, but then you wouldn't be my friend anymore, would you? I've been unable to get anything through your thick skull, so talking won't help. If you're so insecure, thinking you've been replaced, or betrayed, or you just get off on murder, then go right on ahead. If you kill him or he kills you, I've lost you as a friend either way. The best I can hope for is to find Arryn."

He turns to Tulip offering her his hand. "You coming with me?"
 

I cross my arms looking at Gray.

"Well... You hate me... Shadow doesn't... You're mean to me... Shadow isn't... I wonder who I should side with..." she tosses her blonde hair and starts to walk off.

"Im not dealing with your drama mama." she says waving back at them.

"Bye boys! Im going to find Arryn."
 
Gray

Hmm... I start to think. I make threats, but I don't bother anyone. I kill, Just like them. They are no better than me, So how come they treat me as if I'm the bad guy.

"Rex.. You claim to be my friend huh? That's a lie. A real friend would accompany me, or at least question why I want to kill shadow. A FRIEND would NOT insult his friend for his decision and then leave him to himself. A FRIEND does not abandon his friend... And lets say you didn't want shadow to die. A REAL FRIEND would try and stop me. A real friend would stop me from killing. But you can't do that. You are no friend. Don't call me your friend. I can understand not wanting to get involved. I can understand you not wanting anybody to die. But don't claim yourself to be my friend when you don't care if that friend could die..."

Rex has failed the test.

Tulip seems to catch feelings for every guy that she meets... Me, Darren, Shadow... Maybe even Rex. If her and some guy started dating, She would put her boyfriend before everything... Loyal to her boyfriend, But if one of us is not her lover, She will show no loyalty...

Tulip has failed the test.

Neither Rex or Tulip can be consider loyal. Both may be nice, Both may do nice things, But if the situation calls for it, They will abandon you. That is what they have showed me.

LIGHT​

Light travels through each building, leaving it's trail nothing but flickering lights. While traveling, It comes across SHADOW. The blue bolt of lightning materializes and lands in front of him. The lightning starts to mold together, in front of him, resembling a beast.
[PokeCommunity.com] Darker than it Seems... [IC]


This beast of lightning, Was LIGHT​
 

"NO!" she screams and jumps down from Rex's shoulders.

"Dont you even fucking start to talk about what a friend is Gray! You have no fucking idea! You give us this test but you have failed every single fucking test we gave you. So while you sit here and talk about what a friend means maybe you should look back and think about what a friend is. You probably think im some bitch who just sluts it up with everybody. But im not. You don't fucking know me Gray. If maybe you would stop judging people and being rude to people long enough to get to know them you'd know exactly how loyal Rex and I and everyone else is... But you're to busy being the victim to think about anyone else but yourself!" she said finally slapping him, not very hard, but just to get some anger out. Tears were coming out of her eyes and she collapsed in front of Gray.

"You win Gray... Im done trying to be nice to you and try to be your friend... its too exhausting... I will say one thing... Im sorry... Im sorry... Maybe you needed more hugs and less slaps and leech seeds... im sorry..." she stood up weakly hugging him, still crying.
 
Gray

I grab tulip by her shoulders, not flinching from the slap, accepting it. I gently keep her within arms length, stopping her from hugging me.

"Me? A victim? Please... Don't be ridiculous, I'm smart enough not to trust so easily. I'm smart enough to not hug somebody who could potentially kill me. I'm not your friend right? Then don't hug me. Friends do that, but like you said, We're not. Consider me a stranger. I don't care about those leech seeds and slaps. Pain is something that I've been trained to handle."

I look at rex and then at tulip and remove my arms from her shoulders.

"You're all so desperate for friends because you've never had them. Like you said Tulip, I don't know you at ALL, And you don't know me. I won't get to know because you don't want me knowing you. "

"You failed as a friend. So did Rex. You can say I did to, but unlike you all, I never wanted friends. The only reason I'm here is because Arryn wants me to stay. I have no initiative to befriend you, and you shouldn't either." I said to tulip.

"Are you going to slap me again for explaining the truth? Are you going to cry and ignore me? Or will you accept the facts and get over it?"​
 

"No... No I do want to be your friend... because... because there is no reason for us not to be friends... The only reason you're here is because Arryn wants you to be here? Arryn wants us to be friends... or friendly... "

I grab my head screaming out a little bit. I wasn't sure what was happening but I knew it hurt. I screamed out I could feel the energy inside of me bubbling up. I shot moonblasts out of my hands everywhere. I couldn't even aim. I shot leech seeds out of my fingers... I was loosing it. I punched the ground and vines shot up from the ground. I couldn't see.

"Agh! R-Rex! Aaryn... Darren! Gray... Anyone... Help!" I screamed. Vines wrapped around me and created a bubble around me. I still shot moonblasts out of the vines, screaming.
 
Shadow (Hybrid):

"Well... this doesn't look very friendly."

Shadow looked as a manifestations of blue lightning formed in front of him. The poison had not yet left his system. There was no way he could fight or even get away from something like this so quickly. He slowly got to his feet, but not completely. He used one of his hands to keep him from falling.

"I have no reason to fight you. No doubt whatever you are, is powerful. You are blue. You must belong to Gray."

Shadow adjusted himself to a better position.

"I pose no threat to any of you. If you are looking for Arryn, I don't know where she is. She was nearly killed by Team Rocket. I held them off long enough for her to get away. But I don't know where she is. I don't even know if you understand me, but you obviously have a mind of your own. I can help look for her. She came here alone. I don't know why she did, but she did. The people behind me are her kills, the ones at the stairs are mine. Along with one somewhere on the road and six more upstairs."

Shadow wasn't sure why he was talking to this.... thing. He wasn't sure what it even was, but it shared the same feeling as Gray. Shadow tried to think of something to say, he slowly thought about everything he knew.

"Two pokemon that I can think of have blue electricity. There may be more, but there are two I know right off the bat. Pachirisu and Zekrom. Are you weak and small like a Pachirisu or big and strong like a Zekrom? In fact I already know the answer. You are more like a Zekrom. Gray sent you to find me or kill me. Is it ideal to kill me I wonder? I don't think so especially when I am as weak as I am right now. I don't think I would be very worthy right now to kill."

It was then Vibrava came out on its on accord.

'Brava!'

"Hold on Vibrava. Don't provoke the lightning." Shadow said as he waited.

He wasn't getting speed boost at the moment because he was active. All he could do was talk his way out of this.

"I-I cant!" I scream.

I shot more moon blasts and fire more Leech seeds. I couldn't stop. I felt the energy draining out of me... It was awful... and painful... The huge vine ball started floating up to avoid being attacked by rex then it just vanished sending me hurdling to the ground. I scream as i hit the cement. Pink blood flowing out of me.

"g-get arryn..."
 
Gray

As Tulip started spazzing out, I quickly grab her, and get into a choke locking position. She made it hard with all her flailing, but I finally grabbed her neck, and squeezed, almost strangling her. Once she passed out, I loosen my grip around her and lay her on the floor.

"Don't worry rex, I didn't kill her. She's alseep."
---------------------------------------------------

LIGHT​

Light listened to Shadow, Now wondering if it should kill him.

Light walked towards it, but then stopped. It eyed Shadow down.

"Two pokemon that I can think of have blue electricity. There may be more, but there are two I know right off the bat. Pachirisu and Zekrom. Are you weak and small like a Pachirisu or big and strong like a Zekrom? In fact I already know the answer. You are more like a Zekrom. Gray sent you to find me or kill me. Is it ideal to kill me I wonder? I don't think so especially when I am as weak as I am right now. I don't think I would be very worthy right now to kill."

Light had the same mindset as Gray. It wanted to Kill Shadow when he was at his full power. Light also understood Gray's feelings for Arryn. Normally, It would kill Shadow on spot, but upon hearing what had happened, light made the choice to NOT kill Shadow. Shadow helped Arryn. If anything, Gray and Light should be grateful. It knew this, and knowing that, Light turned around and jumped into a streetlight, traveling back to Gray, satisfied with its information.​
 

Her body tremered a bit as she exhaled loudly as her eyes rolled back into her head and she coughed a bit of blood.

"I need to... i need to clean...its so dirty..oh no..johto... we need to go to johto... ill pack the bags." she said softly her head bleeding.
 
Shadow (Hybrid):

Shadow watched as the lightning jumped into a street lamp. Sparks spraying overhead. Shadow fell back, not believing that he had just convinced some sort of creature he had never seen before not to kill him.

"Whew... Not sure how that worked, but it did. Vibrava return." Shadow said, regaining his breath. Vibrava retreated to its pokeball now that the current danger was over.

He felt the poison starting to fade away, but he was able to get up and walk. He saw massive moon beams shooting everywhere in the direction of the apartment.

"Hmm. Those are moonblasts. How fun. My life was calm and normal before I met these people. Now something seems to happen every time I turn a corner. I need to get away from this place. I guess I will go see where the moon blasts came from." Shadow said as he started walking.

The moon blasts vanished. He wondered where Arryn was, but he wasn't sure what to do. He walked for a bit and he started seeing the giant man come into view that he knew as Rex. Gray was there and Tulip was on the ground. He felt the pain from the focus blast still. It seemed to have hurt him for than he thought. Even an oran berry wouldn't help much. He watched Rex scoop the little fairy girl up into his arms and walk into the apartment.

He passed Gray and Shadow's eyes met for a moment, "She might be in the park. You find her. I would help, but.... well you know.... or will in a moment."

"I would look for her, But Light is doing that. It should be back soon. It might have already killed shadow. Or it might have already found her... Either way, All I need to do is wait."

As I said that, Shadow came into view.

I glared at him, and walk passed him as I got my information.​
