Kagaa

It had been a long and tiring day of training in wich she beat the pulp of of her stuffed monster. Now it was only a scattered pile of broken branches and straw.

Kagaa climbed up into a tall tree where she had made something of a small nest earlier. She used the extra straw she hadn't needed for her training dummy.

She sat in the middle of the nest foe the longest time, staring up at the stars, and wondering how long before she was able to get her revenge.

She peared over the side of the nest as she heard a rustle from the bushes below. She wasn't afraid of hights in the slghtest, as she often escaped most of the wild ones by climbing where they couldn't reach.

She glared down at two Rattata fighting over the carcass of a dead Goldeen. Obviously wild they were. There was no doubt in her mind of this. "Disgusting vermon." she hissed, as she glanced back at her own scar, a sad expression on her face.

"Why wasn't I...." she started, then shook her head. Thinking about it did her no good, and it helped in no way with her goals.

Kagaa yawned once more before she curled around herself, placing her long tail over her brow. "Goodnight moon...." she wispered, staring up at the glowing orb, before drifting away to where she and her mate and kits ran free.

The plesentness of dreams. The only place she found happiness now.
 
(My character saw Rayquaza, but all he cares about is killing as many as he can, so it doesn't really matter to him.)

The other Pokemon frantically jumped out of the way of Blade's attack. He stopped and started coughing as the wind blew, and the air suddenly turned purple. Caught off guard, he was hit by a beam of light at him, knocking him into the air. The Ninetales released another Flamethrower at him, and he barely managed to dodge it with Detect.

Unable to stop his fall, he crashed into the ground, almost landing on the Ninetales. Groaning a little, he tried to stand again but didn't have the energy. Between storming the Sky Tower and fighting this Pokemon tag team, he didn't have much energy left.... Just enough for one more attack. As he turned his eyes on the Ninetales, his eyes began to glow with power. When the glow disappeared, his head fell to the ground, and he became still for several seconds, his breathing slightly labored. He tried to struggle to his feet again, but his legs wouldn't cooperate. His wild instincts screamed in his ears for him to rise and continue his rampage, killing all that he came across, but he didn't have the strength.

Collapsing again, he heard a sound he'd been waiting for. The leaves in the trees all around them began to rustle and tremble, first almost inaudibly and then more and more violent with every passing moment. The attack was finally coming.....
 
Jirachi smile. Never once, not once had she ever fought before. She didn't even know she could do half those things, yet it all had come so naturally to her. Jirachi's smile faded as she sensed more wild presences approaching. They were most likely drawn to the sounds of fighting and were hoping for easy prey. She looked down at the Absol, which was now only partially conscious, and suddenly felt deeply sorry for it. Jirachi turned to the Ninetales.

"Let's go!" she hissed, quickly running away and motioning for her to follow.

After a few moments of running, Jirachi remembered something. She could fly. Jirachi gave herself a good slap on the head and slowly lifted herself off the ground. She found a tree and slowly drifted upwards, hiding in the branches as she peered out through her perch. She let out an audible gasp at the sight below. Rayquaza stood on the obliterated ruins of the healing house they had been in not long before. Rayquaza had most obviously become wild.
 
~
Kyuubi watched Jirachi as she ran off into the forest and fly up into a tree, obiviously having seen something of interest. She padded over to the absol, who was partly unconscious. His eyes had stopped glowing like they had earlier but she sensed that there was more to come later. Wild pokemon were running rampant across these lands and she suspected that a pokemon had destroyed the ehaling house, therefore the reason why she had been removed. "Kyuubi!" came a call across the clearing. She looked up, Enkarey was running awkwardly towards her, panting. "the wild pokemon are coming! and Rayquaza has destroyed my house!" She was obviously devastated at the loss, Kyuubi reasoned with herself. The absol by her feet was slowly trying to struggle back on his feet but not quite having enough strength to rise.

The leaves were rustling very loudly as her hearing pinpointed exactly where it was coming from. She stood up to leave as the absol twitched dejectedly, looking down, she felt slightly sorry for it. "Enkarey, let's go, there are more wild pokemon coming, and heal this absol enough before we go" she decided, turning round to find an area which was safe to leave from. Enkarey climbed onto her back carefully and held on tight as she bounded across to the tree where Jirachi was staring at something. She ran up the tree as fast as possible to escape the pokemon that were now scratching along the bottom of the tree. Soon, the smarter, less wild pokemon would try to find ways to climb up and then, they would have no where to go. She landed next to Jirachi and followed her gaze, Rayquaza was standing in the middle of the town, roaring his rule over the area...
 
Okay, I edited my sign-up.(srry it took a while, this topic was inactive for a while, so I forgot) Oh, and my history was already THREE paragraphs. And sorry about the typos, I fixed them. I'm better with that now.
 
Iatos_Haunted: Hmm... Well, I'm really just keeping an eye on things until Goulerbot gets back, but it looks pretty good to me. He'll get the final word, of course, though. I do suggest that you make your personality at least four lines just to make sure that it's long enough because that's pretty much what he considers a paragraph.

Edit: Hehe, I guess I've got to post since there's only two other people posting right now.

IC: Hearing a roar, Blade looked up to see Rayquaza sitting on the ruined building before turning his gaze back on the prey, who were now taking refuge in a tree. The first of the wild Pokemon were arriving now by threes or fours each, but it consisted so far of only common small-frys like pidgey, rattata, poochyena, zigzagoon, etc. They were no real threat alone, but then again they were hardly ever alone, and this case was no different. Who knew what other Pokemon could be nearby though?

Relying on sight more than sense of smell, the pidgeys and Spearow at first divebombed toward Blade to attack, pulling up quickly when they realized their mistake. Blade snapped a little at the ones that pulled up too slowly for his liking, hastening their retreat.

While the birds circled the tree that the normal Pokemon were in, the other wild Pokemon circled it on the ground with their bright eyes staring up at it hungrily. Every few seconds a group would divebomb at the prey or jump at the tree, but there always many still circling, waiting. Their numbers grew larger and larger.

Blade had almost calmed down at this point, but as he watched this scene, he felt the Wild call out his name again and again, and he ached so badly to comply. Kill..... Rip...... Tear..... Destroy..... In frustration, he scratched at the ground with his claws, but it seemed that he wouldn't be able to continue the hunt.

OOC-well then, i suppose I'll carry this on I guess.

~
Kyuubi gripped the branch with her claws, shooting attacks at the pokemon below. They weren't very dangerous, considering the lot were a bunch of unevolved parasites, but she was more inclined to think deeply about the oncoming giant feraligatr that was currently heading their way. Breathing a powerful ominous wind below the tree, she signaled to Enkarey and jirachi, "come on, we have to climb if we're going to escape that feraligatr's hydro pump" she warned. The blast hit the tree as soon as they dipped into the above branches. Here, she couldn't fight off any pokemon, as it was too far up and any fire type attacks would be fatal.

She attacked the pokemon that were heading towards the tree with a hyper beam, and while she recharged, also gearing up for a solar beam. She launched the solar beam at the feraligatr, knocking it to the ground while half unconscious. Attack from the air seemed to often be critical hits if you had good accuracy.
 
Jirachi nodded and released another Doom Desire into the air, waiting until enough energy had been gathered to be released onto the wild Pokemon below. The wild Pokemon kept coming. They soon swarmed around the tree, despite the Ninetale's assaults on them, and began attempting to climb up or knock it down, intent on catching their prey. Jirachi released another Swift to little avail. They had to get out of here if they planned on living through the night.

"Come on!" Jirachi held out her hands to the Ninetales and Blissey. Jirachi winced when the Ninetales took hold of her injured hand.

With a grunt, Jirachi pushed off the branch and floated into the air, casting a Light Screen behind them followed by a Protect to ensure that they wouldn't be hit. She felt the Doom Desire build up energy, but it still wasn't enough. She felt the Ninetales holding in an attack and allowed some of her strength to flow into her.

"Helping Hand," she muttered faintly, her limbs shaking with effort from keeping all three of them in the air while holding several defenses.
 
~
"helping hand" muttered Jirachi. Kyuubi could hear the pain in her voice, "drop your defenses, we'll have no use of it as soon as we blast off" she said, launching a solar beam at the ground, squashing many a wild pokemon in the process. The blast hit the earth with a resounding smash-THIS was her original plan-the force of the blast carrying them off into the sky and creating lift for jirachi. She held on to jirachi and Enkarey with her tails as tightly as possible, feeling Jirachi wince beneath her fur. They were going to have a very, very hard landing, as she noticed mountains looming towards them. Also, it seemed that a Honchkrow was flying towards them. Oh dear.
 
They were propelled up, allowing Jirachi to increase her speed. A Honchkrow was speeding towards them, searing bloodlust filling its eyes. Jirachi continued on, watching as the mountains quickly grew closer. They were now flying over the snow that lined the rocky outcroppings. Jirachi dared a glance back and saw that the Honchkrow was gaining, its body glowing as it began charging up moves.

I hope this works, Jirachi prayed.

She abruptly dove down straight for the snow and soon found that they were falling too fast for her to help them land properly. Jirachi frantically pulled up with all her might and used Protect, hoping that it wouldn't fail. They hit the snow hard and rolled apart. Jirachi, ignoring the pain, stood up and faced the Honchkrow. It flew toward them, a triumphant grin on its face. Jirachi allowed it to come closer and just before it impaled her with its beak, she harnessed the energy stored up around her and released it into a thread-thin strip of sunlight aimed directly through its head. Before the Honchkrow could even attempt to dodge, the stream of light hit its mark, piercing its skull and killing it instantly.

Jirachi smiled as the corpse fell into the snow before falling to her knees and curling up into a ball. She was so tired...
 
~
Kyuubi kicked away the snow that was building up around her face. Enkarey was a bit further away, scrambling to get up, "Kyuubi! are you alright?" she shook her head to rid of the snow and stood up, padding over to Jirachi, whom was now curled up in a ball and apparently fast asleep.
She sighed, "what a time to rest" she mumbled.

Enkarey smiled, "at least we aren't in any mortal danger at this point" Kyuubi gritted her teeth and gave a low growl in frustration. In these mountains, survival was estimated to be very, very low.

She picked up jirachi with a tail and placed her on her back, "A little sleep will do her good" Enkarey had said. They had to get away from their landing area before any more wild pokemon came. The dead honchkrow was also a sight that would tell a lot of details. currently, things weren't looking very good for Jirachi, her left was glowing a dark shade of indigo and she murmured in her sleep. Kyuubi herself also felt something in a corner of her subconscious mind, a voice, whining, arguing.

They passed a sign after maybe an hour or two of walking through snow. "Mt Freeze 5 km up ahead, Sky blue plains 3km west, The lost and hallowed towers 1km east" Enkarey read out. "we'll go east to the towers, the sun is going to set soon. I'll bet the wild pokemon round here are partly nocturnal, like that Honchkrow" Enkarey nodded along with her choice.
 
Kagaa

Kagaa snapped awake quickly as she felt herself almost thrown from the tree she had been sheltering in. "Wh...What?" she asked sleepily.

Glancing down she spotted a Rhyhorn repeatdly charging her tree over and over. Does he even know I'm up here? she thought to herself.

Fight or flee? Those were her only two options, had been her only two options since this mess started awhile back.

Kagaa glanced up at the moon as she felt her tree shuddder again. "Can't a girl even get any sleep around here for Chu's sake?"

She suddenly felt angry. She had somehow managed to finally fall asleep after hours of tossing and turning, and this idiot here had to butt in and ruin her beauty sleep.

Pushing herself back onto her haunches Kagaa lept from the tree and onto the Ryhorns back.

Suffice to say the wild Rhyhorn was none too pleased with this new development.

So what did he do?

He charged blindly in a straight direction with Kagaa clinging on for dear life.

"Idiot! Stop running!" Kagaa screeched as he tore through a large thorny bush like it was nothing and kept going.

"Guess we do this the hard way then." Kagaa sighed. Sparks began building in her cheek pouches. "Thunderbolt!"

The attack barely fazed Rhyhorn, insteed it seemed to spur him on faster.

"Bad wild Rhyhorn! Stop!" Kagaa closed her eyes. "I feel kinda sick."

Kagaa peeked through slitted eyes, then opened them wide.

There was a village directly ahead.

Rhyhorn was going to smash right through it, and there was little she could do to stop him.

"Oh crud!"
 
Jirachi smelled the fierce scent of fear and blood. Power coursed through her body, possessing her and overwhelming heightened senses with its sharp intensity. Hunger blazed in every fiber of her being. Calling her to hunt and feast. Calling her to become wild. She trembled as her very mind was covered with the veil of a being not her own, suppressing her thoughts and slowly spreading through her body. She saw herself flying high above a town, releasing a beam of blood-red sunlight onto the Pokemon below. Pokemon who had been celebrating her presence only the day before. Pokemon she had granted wishes for. Pokemon she loved.

No, she thought, fighting the cruel being forming inside her. No!

A hissing sound resounded in her ears and she felt the wild inside her rage through her body, pounding through her blood and releasing waves of merciless pain. She cried out and began falling, having lost all powers of flight. The last thing she saw was a green form streaking through the sky, roaring as it was overcome by the wild. Rayquaza.

***

Jirachi awoke on the Ninetale's back, still rather shaken by her dream. She pushed herself up, aware that the snow was still falling from the sky and it was darker than before, though not by much. Jirachi shook her buzzing head. Somehow she had used Rest without intending to do so. Was that the only way she could sleep?

She turned her head and saw that the Blissey was walking along as well. But what had become of the Bulbasaur? Jirachi pictured being surrounded by wild Pokemon, fighting for your life even though you knew you would be overtaken. Even thought they would end up killing and devouring you...

"Where are we going?" Jirachi asked, breaking from her own disturbing thoughts.
 
Rayquaza's now primitive mind was confused. There was so much going on, and so little time for him to understand it. First there was a fight between three pokemon, and then the swarms of other possibly wild pokemon arrived. Now they were swarming two of the three from before, with a Blissey now joining them. For a moment he considered chasing them, but he instead decided to head towards a foresty area…

----

Celebi emerged from her portal. This is the one way that this crisis could be stopped, she thought. On the way through, she had explained the situation to her passengers, who were well known in their respective time periods. They emerged near a sign, which said, 'Mount Freeze 5km ahead, Sky blue plains 3km west, The Lost and Hallowed Towers 1km east'. One of the three figures abruptly said, "Look. There. Tracks! Heading… East. Towards the Towers. Lets follow them." Celebi declared, "I will head back to Purity Forest. It is less dangerous there." And with that she was gone. One of the other three shrugged. They continued on their way.

Pretty soon, they came across three pokemon- A Blissey, a Ninetales, and one other, who was evidently concerned about its identity. The team of three walked towards them, all the way having a discussion. "Lucas, I think you should be the leader for now. From what you've told me, the future may be like your home world." Lucas, the Mudkip, nodded. "But what about him, Blaze?" He said, pointing to the most experienced rescue team member. "We don't even know him! We don't know wether Celebi got him from a time when he was the best!" Their conversation ended, as they ended up behind the other trio, who were visibly surprised at their appearance. Then Lucas began, "Team Legends at you service. I'm Lucas, the Torchic is Blaze, and this," he said, motioning towards the third member, "Is Lucario."

OOC: Yes, this is the team often spoken about in legends. Plus, for those who need to know, they are currently a Platinum rank team, and Lucario is the one mentioned by Alakazam in PMD1 after you beat Sky Tower. Plus, pretty soon all RPers will gain the ability to either form a rescue team, or sign up for a separate team of characters as well. Not right now, though. XD I'm to lazy to post the new signup form at the moment.
 
Jirachi heard the sound of crunching snow behind them and spun around, the beginnings of a Swift fading when she saw that a trio of Pokemon was standing behind them. They didn't appear wild...

Then the Mudkip began, "Team Legends at you service. I'm Lucas, the Torchic is Blaze, and this," he said, motioning towards the third member, "Is Lucario."

"Team?" Jirachi asked. She had heard talk of teams in the Pokemon Square, but only in this week she had been awake. Rescue Teams. But rescue from what? The wild Pokemon?

Jirachi floated off of the Ninetales back, landing softly in the snow. She just now realized how small she was. She was even shorter than the Mudkip. She pulled the hood off of her head, scratching behind one of the stray notes that was still attached to her head. She eyed the Pokemon curiously.

"I'm Jirachi," she said, unable to keep back a yawn. The scratch on her hand tingled and Jirachi realized that it was uncovered. She had lost her gloves fighting the Absol.

"So," Jirachi pinned her hand to her side, hoping they didn't see the scratch. "What, er- are you doing here, specifically?"
 
~
Kyuubi shifted in the snow, as Jirachi jumping off her back had induced the start of a stream of pains running down her leg. A Mudkip, Torchic and Lucario was introducing themselves to them and Enkarey seemed to be evidently shocked by one of their team members. "impossible, is that really THE lucario?" she whispered to Kyuubi, she turned her head, "Whether it is or not, Enakrey, you ought to know I don't care" she replied.

"What, er-are you doing here, specifically?" Jirachi asked, Kyuubi watched as she casually pressed her injured hand to her back, as to hide it. She let jirachi do the talking, as much as she liked the company a tinsy bit, it would be better to get to a safe place before talking, especially if the group were going to be telling a long tale, like most travellers.

She watched the snow covered whiteness of the mountain tops, certain there was something spying on them. A flash of olive green caught the corner of her eye and she turned round to look for it only to be greeted with blankness as far as the eye could see, well normal eyes, but Kyuubi didn't have normal eyes. Though she didn't see what the flash of green was, she did certainly see that the sun was setting and the wind was blowing a lot harder than normal.

A shadow floated over the mountain top, something had finally come, and it didn't look happy to meet them.
 
Rayquaza had given up on resisting. He had decided to go after a group of three pokemon. He didn't particularly know why, but they were… familiar. They gave a strange sensation in the back of his mind. Then sounds… voices? They echoed through his mind. Take charge of your destiny! They weren't even enough to faze him, and after a moment of paused conclusion he furthered himself onwards, stealthily, silently. Waiting for the right moment to strike… he heard a few voices… he slowly advanced and let out a colossal roar…
**********
Lucas waited for a little while, waiting for his intro to sink in. Then, the hooded pokemon asked, "Team?" Lucas decided to reply, but before he could, the pokemon floated off of the Ninetales, and removed her hood.

"I'm Jirachi." she said, and she yawned. "So, what, er- are you doing here, specifically?" Lucas didn't know what to say about this. He had heard of Jirachi, who only appeared in myths, and was only supposed to emerge from its sleep once in a thousand years. However, before he could mentally theorise why this was happening, the Blissey spoke. "Impossible, is that really THE Lucario?" He heard the Ninetales mutter something, but didn't really care too much at the moment.

Then he turned towards Jirachi, about to answer her question, when Blaze interrupted. "I think there was… something… Lucas! Something has been chasing us!" Team Legends whirled around, to see a slightly familiar, hulking serpent, who roared ferociously. Blaze exclaimed what was on all their minds- "What's going on! Lucas! That's Rayquaza, isn't it? What's gotten into him!? He's gone crazy! Oh, and to answer your earlier question, We don't exactly know why we're here. Lucas will explain it, if we make it away from Rayquaza." Lucas nodded, and began to take his temporary role of team leader. "Come on, team!" He exclaimed, "Let's show him what rescue team Legends is capable of!" He readied a Hydro Pump, and prepared for battle…
 
"I think there was… something… Lucas! Something has been chasing us!" The trio of Pokemon spun around to face the enormous green lizard that was now staring down at them.

"What's going on! Lucas! That's Rayquaza, isn't it? What's gotten into him!? He's gone crazy!" the Torchic cried. "Oh, and to answer your earlier question, We don't exactly know why we're here. Lucas will explain it, if we make it away from Rayquaza."

Jirachi's mouth fell open and she took a stunned step back. Rayquaza's body was covered with slashes and scars the would easily have been fatal for any other Pokemon. He's gone wild, she realized with a gasp.

The Mudkip nodded. "Come on, team!" He exclaimed, "Let's show him what rescue team Legends is capable of!"

The team took their places, readying their attacks. Jirachi snapped back to attention, jumping into the air and releasing a Swift with a swish of her arms, knowing that it wouldn't do much, but she had to help somehow. Jirachi calmed her mind and began concentrating on a Psychic. She looked down and saw the Mudkip preparing for an attack. Jirachi knew that she would be more help if she worked with them...

Jirachi released her telekinetic energy toward the Rayquaza and quickly flew down and landed beside the Mudkip. The energy she had stored up was only powerful enough for a Confusion, but at least it was something. Jirachi placed her hand on the Mudkip's arm.

"Let me help you," she said softly, allowing her power to flow into his own.
