Sirva Flash
"Guys!" Benny shouted as he ran up, "You all are alive! I thought for a moment… Oh, this is a rebellion force."
"So, you're the army? Good, we can always use more pokemon. We're heading to Bill's house. It's a fortress up there so we should be safe, unless you're needed somewhere else?" said the woman that appeared to be the leader of this rebellion force.
"Bill's house sounds as good as any a place to regroup. Its getting dark anyway, it would be good to get somewhere secure so we don't have to worry about the infected tonight." Blaze said, adding with a look at the others, "Is that okay with you guys?" Sirva nodded her assent. She had been to Bill's house once with her trainer, but that had been years ago.
"Actually, we were just on our way there. Y'welcome to tag along if y'want," Splash said. " 'S fine by me, the more, t'merrier. Would be easier to keep the infected away 't any rate. So if you're comin' or not, 'm gonna head up there."
"I have no problem. I'm just a bit concerned with all of us traveling together at once. It gives us a risk I don't want to take. If we have a large army, Deoxys will send a large army too. That adds up to a rather… risky fight. I'm sure you understand," Number said before following Splash.
"Well, I think we'll do better as a group. We can take on more infected and I don't think-" Benny was cut off by the woman. Sirva was starting to like her.
"Actually the Nidorina is right." the female human said, "If he finds one of us then he would find all of us. We should split up into groups. Sebastian, you'll lead group one. Harry, you'll lead group two. I'll stay with Benny and the army. Make sure to divide up evenly and stay quiet. Get to Bill's as fast as possible and scout out the area, we don't know if any infected are up there. Be safe everyone."
As Sirva followed the woman, she growled in annoyance as Benny continuously tripped. During one of the falls where his equipment was scattered all over the ground, the woman said, "Benny, we're going to move on ahead, catch up once you get everything. Just follow the path and you'll be fine."
Not far down the path, but far enough that Benny couldn't hear them, the woman turned. "Let me see if I get his right. Blaze, you seem to be on good terms with Bennny. Splash, for some reason you already are annoyed with him, but that means you probably have to follow his orders now. Number, you are also annoyed with him, but probably due to something he has already done to the army. I don't know much about you Sirva so I'll save my theory for later. In truth I don't think any of you are wrong. He sticks out like a sore thumb in any camouflage due to his clothes and he isn't the most coordinated person I've met, and he's too trusting. Which means either you all had a commander before and he's the replacement and just acts that way to stay sane, or he has had no military experience before this point and is just someone who volunteered for the job and was accepted. But, he also has a big heart. He cares a lot about you guys, wouldn't forget about you in that city and wanted us to search for you. He may be a cr**py leader, but I would give him time. We all start out as c**p at one point in our life."
Sirva narrowed her eyes at the human and opened her mouth to say something, but before she could Benny was back with them panting, "You guys are fast."
When a low growl emanated from a bush, the woman pulled Benny to the ground as an infected Mightyena jumped out, followed by a Tangela, Lickilicky, and Haunter. "Humans, leave now!" the Mightyena snarled. "We are only here for the pokemon." He turned toward the Valoran army Pokemon. "We saw your actions in Cerulean, oh grand army. You will make great test subjects for Master."
Sirva emitted a low growl.
'Test subjects? Over my dead body!'
Benny was shaking but he still spoke up, "No! We're not leaving!"
The woman pointed her gun at the Mightyena, "We're not going down without a fight."
The Mightyena snarled, "Kill the humans and capture these specimens!"
Sirva took off into the air as the Hypnosis swept by below her. Number had run off to attack the Mightyena, obviously angered by it, leaving the Charizard to take care of the Haunter. That was fine by her. Warmth spread its way from her chest up to her mouth, and when she opened her maw a Fire Blast came out. The Haunter floated out of the way, but not fast enough as it was still burned by the fire. It's eyes clouded with fury, but it seemed to restrain itself as it only used another Hypnosis. Sirva guessed it was because it wasn't supposed to kill her. She twisted in the air, almost playfully, as the attack missed her by at least foot.
As the Charizard continued to dance through the air as the Haunter continued to fire Hypnosis after Hypnosis, it finally seemed to get angry enough to want to actually hurt her. A ball of darkness formed in its hands and the ghost fired the Shadow Ball at Sirva. This time she dove a few feet down to dodge it. Deciding playtime was over, Sirva used another Fire Blast, immediately following it up with a Dragon Pulse. The Fire Blast missed as expected, but the Haunter moved right into the path of the Dragon Pulse. The infected ghost-type was pushed into the ground by the attack, where it lay quivering as it attempted to rejuvenate itself with a Calm Mind. As another Fire Blast bore down at it, it fired a last Shadow Ball that caught Sirva in the wing, sending her spiraling down to the ground as she was knocked off balance. She crashed into the ground with a loud crash. She stood up, head spinning from the crash-landing but satisfied that she had defeated her foe.
