The Uprising: Fighting the Pokémon Extermination

Not open for further replies.
Isabel collapsed as the dart's venom took it's toll on the trainer, and she collapsed in a heap.

"Both of you!" the woman spat, pointing to Chris and the other girl with them, "Pick her up and keep going, or do you want to end up like her"

"There is a way to ask people nicely." Chris joked, climbing out the sewers. The woman's grip tightened around the gun as she pointed it at Chris "OK. OK." Chris said putting his hands into the air "Geez... I got her"

Chris walked over and put Isabel over his shoulder, taking care not to throw her around or make any sudden movements. The woman seemed jumpy enough as it was.

Chris surveyed the area around him. If he made a grab for a Pokeball or a knife, he would be shot instantaneously like Isabel. If he ran he might make it, but they would find him eventually. Plus he was already fairly injured, he couldn't run for long and would probably end up like Isabel. And to top things off, he would also have to carry Isabel. As much as he hated to admit it, there was no way out.

"Keep walking you two!" the woman commanded waving the gun back and forth.

As they paraded though the street, Chris noticed the girl next to him. He had seen her before helping Isabel, so he could only assumed that she was on their side. However, that didn't matter now. Both trainers trudged through the street, scared, disappointed, and above all embarrassed. Trying to get their minds off of the humiliation, Chris tried to make small talk with the girl, something he was never good at.

"So... umm, if you don't mind me asking, who are you?"

WHen Cris finished the question, girl stopped and stood there, her eye's widened with fear. At first, Chris though he hit a conversational "landmine" with the girl, but then he realized she was looking behind him. Chris turned and saw a tall, muscular man wearing a PXS uniform. He grabbed Isabel from Chris, throwing her over his shoulder violently, and began to walk off in a separate direction, the woman followed close behind. As the man and woman walked away with Isabel, two more took his place, standing in front of Chris and the other girl.

Without saying a word, one of the men grabbed the girl, placing a bag on her head and cuffing her hands. Chris instinctively took a step to try and help her, but was met with a blow to the head from the other guard. For the second time tat day, the familiar veil of unconsciousness covered his eyes.

OOC: I just realized that Minku and my characters have never actually "met" before this XD. Thought this might be a good time for them.
EDIT: Changed ending to mix with Mira's post

Wolfsrain: It's the middle of the night, so nobody would be there...
(OOC: I was thinking that the lady would have called for a guard to come and take Isabel and another couple guards to take Ashleigh and Chris in. This skips ahead in time because obviously Isabel is asleep. Ashleigh and Chris would probably be shut up in a room together, but whether it is a prison-esque room or just a normal room is up to you. They would take your weapons and PokéBalls and maybe even take Ashelighs *gasp*. Once again, up to you. I'm thinking that they keep them in the dark for a bit before explaining things (parially because I first have to explain them in my posts) because they are concentrating on making Isabel join so that they (hopefully) follow. BTW, check out what I added to my post on the OOC thread if you didn't already.)

"How did she react to the sedative?"

"It worked as it was supposed to. She had no allergic reaction and should not cause any negative side-effects."

Isabel felt the darkness subside slightly. Exhaustion pressed against her, but Isabel managed to fight it off and remain awake. The air around her smelled sterile and was cool against her face. She clenched soft fabric in each hand and ran her fingers over it. Where am I?

"And how about her general health? Does she have any sicknesses from traveling?"

"No, she's in peak physical condition. She doesn't have so much as a cavity."

Isabel released the cloth and braced her hands against what she was lying on, preparing to launch herself up. Hopefully she could find a way to escape whoever it was in the room with her. She tightened her muscles and pushed herself up on what turned out to be a bed. She opened her eyes to see two people standing nearby her. The man looked as if he were a doctor while the woman clutched an electronic clipboard in her hand. They both looked at her awakening and gave her an odd smile. Isabel couldn't read the expressions properly while she was still so tired. She reached into her sleeve for a PokeBall and found that there were none there. She had been changed out of her clothing and was now wearing what appeared to be a uniform. Isabel looked around desperately for her PokeBalls and found that they were nowhere near.

"It looks as though our guest is awake," the woman said cheerily, tapping something on her electronic clipboard with her stylus.

"The sedative should have kept her out for a while longer," the man said with a frown. "Though I don't suppose that's anything to complain about."

"Of course not," the woman continued tapping on her clipboard. "It simply means that we may begin the meeting immediately."

While the two talked, Isabel attempted to slip out of the bed without them noticing, but realized that there were plastic restraints placed on each of her wrists, connecting her to the bed frame. They were relatively long, but did not allow her to sit up very far. She pulled on her right arm as hard as she could, but the restraint held fast.

"I apologize for your discomfort, Miss Isabel," the woman apologized, noticing Isabel's attempt to get up. "But we couldn't afford to have you leave before we had the chance to offer you our proposition."

"You mean the PXS," Isabel said bluntly. She remembered the woman talking about a proposition as well that had to do with PXS and some sort of uprising. "What offer could you possibly have for me? If I turn in my team, then you'll convince the government not to kill us?"

The two adults just looked at one another and, much to Isabel's surprise, began to laugh.

"The government? Oh heavens no," the woman laughed. "We don't work for them. We prefer to see them as... part-time associates."

"I thought that you made Pokemon shipments for them," Isabel said suspiciously.

"We do, but..." the woman trailed off and glanced down at the clipboard once again. "I suppose this will be explained to you at the meeting."

As if on cue, the doctor stepped over to Isabel's side and unlocked the restraints, freeing Isabel's arms. Isabel rubbed her wrists and looked over the woman, reading the woman's expressions and body language and found nothing that reflected any reason for her to believe that it was a trap. They already had her where they wanted her... And she couldn't leave without her Pokemon, no matter what. I hope Chris and Ashleigh got away from... whatever this is.

"Let's go, Miss Isabel," the woman tapped her stylus against her electronic clipboard in mild impatience. "There is much to be discussed and little time to do so."

(OOC: Ok ill give it a shot, but it wont be long, and ill edit it as soon as we work out the right plan and situation, and find out who is still with the rp, and also i too am tired :P)

"Ok Fay, you can let me go now" Drake groaned as he floated in mid air. They had lost the bounty hunter about fifteen minutes ago but fay was still running.

"Espeon!" Fay released the psychic attack and Drake fell on the ground with a big thud.

"Yeesh, not that hard!" Drake could feel a bumb where he just hit his head, and his hand was govered with a bit of blood. "Dang, must have fallen on a rock" Luckily Sparky was Ok and Drake's Chest took the impact for the little guy.

"Ok so what now?" He looked at fay. For the short time they had been together he realized this pokemon was smart and cunning, well of course she was, but it really showed. He would have to depend on her for directions and her experience.

Fay walked away and signaled with her tail. Drake scurried after her, and Fay led them into a more dense area. The undergrowth reached his chest, and he could only see fay by her tail.

Fay suddenly jumped down, and Drake saw another clearing. The pokemon sat down while Drake looked around for food. It wasnt hard with all the berries on the undergrowth. He managed to grab 6 Oran berries and 3 Sitrus Berries.

Drake finished his fourth berry when fay suddenly jumped up. Drake could see concern in her eyes. Sparky jumped on his shoulder and Drake had a moment of Deja-Vu as they ran through the forest chasing fay. <again>

(OOC: Ok so now she is gonna lead me and whoever wants to join to the PXS right?)
 
(OOC: Yes, if you want you can notify some people who aren't active to see what's up, but... Either way Drake is going to have to get captured :P
BTW, when he does get captured, he probably first sees one of the guards return Fay into her PokeBall *dun dun dun!* and probably just thinks "WTF?"
If you want to talk about this further, please ask on the OOC thread :D)

Charlie had left the kitchen alone for a day. He went searching for more ingredients to use.

"Munch, can you smell anything? he asked the Munchlax by his side. The Munchlax sniffed the air and shook its head no.

"Aww" Charlie groaned. A few seconds later Munch's nose twitched. Charlie knew that twitch. Munch had smelt food.

An Espeon came darting and behind it was a boy. "Hey wait, can I have some food ?"he shouted, but the boy kept chasing that Espeon.

"What a rude child. Thats it I'm gonna show him some manners" Charlie frustrated shouted out loud and he began chasing after Drake while carrying his trusty frying pan. Munchlax was returned to its pokeball and clearly Charlie plans to hit him in the head with a frying pan.

OOC: Once again sorry for the short post.

Another chilly day at PSX. These guys should have better heating systems... Rena thought to herself, tossing a regular Pokeball up into the air nonchalantly. The Misdreavus and Sneasel stood by her quietly, as if waiting her next move.

"Looks like another monotonous day..." Rena muttered, placing the Pokeball back into her pocket. The sound of voices rang out, and the Misdreavus immediately went into hiding. As for the Sneasel, who could do nothing else, Rena called him back into his Luxury Ball, where he could be cozy. After a few minutes, the voices faded away, and Rena called the Sneasel back out. Her Misdreavus came out of hiding, and Rena gave her famous emotionless expression in the direction the voices had come from.

"How many more days until we're out of here?" her wispy voice asked quietly. The two Pokemon looked at her strangely, but then turned their attention to the direction the voices came from. At once, Rena smiled, something you'd seldom see from her.

"Fia, I would like you to go play a trick on some of them," Rena requested, her wispy voice somewhat tingling. The Misdreavus nodded and floated off. Minutes passed. Soon, when the clock seemed to be ten minutes away from the next hour, a couple screams rang out, and the Misdreavus reappeared in front of Rena. Giving another slight smile, Rena patted her Misdreavus on the head. Then the sounds of footsteps. And the two were back in their Pokeballs.

"Um... Miss-Miss Siegfried, we had the strangest experience," two of the more gullible members moaned, their faces more pale than Rena's skin could ever be. They stared at her, watching her emotionless gaze carefully. After a few minutes, they ran off. That emotionless gaze, it always sent chills down the backs of some... Sighing, Rena sat down and took out a dusty book of hers. It was written probably 100 years ago, but it was still worth reading...

(I hope it was all OK~)
 
Charlie had lost sight of the boy and the Espeon. He had stumble upon some shipping company called PSX.

He walked up to the guards at the front of the building and asked "Have you seen a boy and an Espeon." The guards eyed him and not moving an inch they replied "PSX members only". "But, really need to hit him" he awnsered back in a cry baby voice. The guards just repeated "PSX members only". "Fine, you meanies" he said and he went to the side of the building.

"Munch we need to get inside of that building. I know he's there, after all he did have an Espeon with him". Charlie started hitting the side of the building with his frying pan, but with no results. "Munch, you help too" he said enraged with the ignorant wall.

Munch stuck his tongue out and licked the wall. "Hmm....... I'll help too" and at those words Charlie began licking the wall with Munchlax. "Faster Munchlax. It's kind of tasty, but it could use some pepper".

After about thirty minutes of licking the wall Charlie finally said "We need more power Munchlax, use the Metronome". Munchlax began swaying his fingers back and forth in an even time. Finally a blue aura engulfed them and they were gone.

Charlie and Munch had arrived in a narrow tunnel just wide enough for a child to crawl through. Munch's nose was active; he had teleported them to the closest place with food. "Aww, Munch why did you take us here?" Charlie complained. Munch continued through the narrow space. The food was being carried by a wild gulpin.

"Muuunch" Munchlax groaned at the sight of food. The gulpin ignored it and continued down an intersection of the cave. "Muuuunch" he groaned louder. The gulpin came back; the food had been eaten and the gulpin spat sludge at Munch.

"Hey, that was rude" Charlie couldn't help saying. Gulpin ignored him. "Munch, we'll show it. Use metronome. Munch waggled its finger and a huge earthquake erupted spliting the cave floor; the tunnel was a ventilation system and all three of them had landed in a cell. The earthquake had shaken all of the PSX building.

The gulpin was dizzy from the powerful ground attack and Charlie threw a pokeball. "Success, I think I'll name you Rudy and I'm gonna fix your attitude problem".

Charlie finally examined his surroundings. Chris and Ashleigh are the two Uprising members in the Cell. "This is horri..." Charlie said being cut off by two bounty hunters who just arrived and opened the cell.

"Munch are you ready for another Metronome" Charlie said to Munch. Munch just walks off and heads to the bounty hunters. "Thats a good pokemon. Now maybe we won't kill you instead I think I'll keep you" a female bounty hunter tells Munch. Munch hugs her and then licks her. At first she thinks this is a sign of agreement, but then she is paralyzed.

"Good job, Munch. Decieving the enemy is a smart tactic" Charlie cheered. "Now do the Metronome" he continued. Munchlax began waving its fingers. Charlie rolls a six-sided die "Yes a seven for good luck" he exclaims. "Houndoom, chew on that runt" the remaining bounty hunter shouted releasing Houndoom from its ball.

Houndoom ran up to Munchlax and prepared its fangs for a powerful Crunch. Munchlax had finished its metronome.

Before Houndoom could attack Munchlax had bitten the Houndoom. "But how? My pokemon had prepared its Crunch before that runt and yet he struck first?"

"Tsk, Tsk, Tsk the attack Munch used wasn't Crunch. It was a move known as Me First. Me First is move that takes the opponents attack, then multiplies its power and always strikes first. Your pokemon is much stronger than mine. So I'd make sure your pokemons okay if I were you" Charlie explained staring at an incredibly wounded Houndoom. The bounty hunter looked at his Houndoom and shouted "Houndoom, are you okay?". "Too late" Charlie said in a suprisingly cool voice as Munchlax licked the Houndoom. Now both the Lady and the Houndoom were paralysed. The bounty hunter had nothing more he could do besides returning his pokemon and retreating with the paralysed bounty hunter.

"Now Munch stockpile whatever you can find" Munch began searching the room inside and outside of the cell for food. He found a bag of bread and a few slightly bruised oran berries. "Good, there is enough ingredients for me to make oran berry french toast" he said in a cheery voice and he pulled an egg from his pocket and examined his frying pan. "I was originally going to boil this egg, but french toast will be more satifying and it'll be more food. Would you like some?" he asked the two strangers who were in the cell with him.

OOC: Note the two strangers are Ashleigh and Chris. Also the door to the cell is opened.

(OOC: They wouldn't say "Pokemon Trainers Only" because technically they're not supposed to have Pokemon. They would say "PXS members only". They would probably keep Chris and Ashleigh in the same room, but not with the other Uprising members I don't think. How does he know their names...?)

Isabel walked through the hallway beside the clipboard-bearing woman. They passed several other people wearing the same black and purple clothing that had been put on Isabel and she realized that it was the PXS uniform. They dressed me in their uniform?

"Right in here, Miss Isabel," the woman took out a card key and swiped it to open a door. "He'll be in to talk to you in a few minutes."

Isabel went inside and the woman closed the door after her. She waited until the woman's footsteps had fully faded down the hall before twisting the doorknob. It was locked. The only way to unlock the door with a card key. Isabel placed her forehead against the cool wood of the door and allowed her mind to wander momentarily. Where had Chris and Ashleigh been taken? Had the PXS member even taken them with? Where were her PokeBalls? Was there a card key in here?

The last thought caught Isabel off guard. She glanced around the room. There was a rather large window adorned with purple curtains through which (what time of day is it?) light poured through. She frowned and walked over, brushing one of the drapes aside. From where the room was positioned, Isabel could clearly see at least half of Crystal City, but this window was looking mainly out over the ocean.

Isabel allowed the fabric to fall back into place and turned to look at the rest of the room. There was a glass display table containing an old map that had every region on it in gold leaf. On one side of it there was an assortment of stones used for evolution and on the other there was a large collection of items Isabel couldn't identify. Nothing here.

She turned her attention to the large black desk sitting in the middle of the room. There was a smile pile of opened letters sitting in a neat pile on the corner of the desk, a silver letter-opener carefully placed on top. There was a golden fountain pen positioned in the middle over a small leather-bound notebook. Isabel gingerly took the pen in her hand and flipped the book open to the first divider. It had the title: Uprising Progress. Isabel looked down the page and realized that it had the names of every single Uprising member up to when most of them were lost in Shadow Valley, each with a page number next to them. But all the members that died in Shadow Valley had a dash through them while the ones that had gone missing were highlighted. All of them. What is this?

Isabel heard a click from the front door and spun around, closing the book and placing the pen back on top. The doorknob slowly turned and Isabel's mind raced as the door slipped open. She stepped back and gripped the edge of the desk tightly. A tall man, probably about six feet in hight, stepped through. He wore a black pinstripe suit with a purple tie and his piercing green eyes peered through several strands of stray black hairs that were carefully gelled. He looked to be in his mid-twenties and was very obviously professional.

"Ah, Miss Evens," he flashed Isabel a perfect smile. "I've wished to speak with you for a long time. Please, take a seat."

Isabel obediently stepped forward and sat on the edge of the seat in front of the desk and watched the man as he took his seat behind it. He placed his hands on the desk and looked into her eyes. Isabel matched his gaze with unwavering intensity. After a moment he opened one of his drawers and began looking through the items inside.

"Are you aware of Pokemon Exporting Services' work against the passing of the new law?" he asked without looking up.

"I assumed since this organization exports the Pokemon displaced by the law that they were working for it," Isabel said coldly.

"That is what the government thinks," he said without expression. "But what we do beneath that cover is what truly matters."

"What is it, exactly, that you do when you're not exporting innocent Pokemon to different regions away from their trainers?" Isabel asked calmly.

"What we're doing," he said with a triumphant smile, "is taking down the new law."

"How is abiding by the law going to help fight it?" Isabel demanded sharply.

"By taking it down from the inside." He took out a small packet and placed it on his desk and stood up, pacing behind his seat. "You see, the law in theory would get rid of all the Pokemon and there would be no one would have the potential to hold enough power to rise up against them. But what if some of the Pokemon were to stay in the region and were place in the right hands in order to take control of the government?"

"How is exporting Pokemon going to accomplish any of this?" Isabel asked.

"Ah, but that's the point of our movement," he stopped pacing and returned to his seat. "We don't export all the Pokemon. We keep the more powerful ones and adjust the reports so that they're not missed. We then train the Pokemon and assign them to a trainer who we know will benefit our group the greatest."

"It makes sense, I suppose," Isabel said slowly. "But what does this have to do with my team?"

"Your Uprising does much of the same work as us," he leaned forward. "And it has been a good distraction for the government off our own actions, but we find that it is time for you and your team to join us. You all have untapped potential that could be a powerful asset to us."

"Why should we join you? We could continue our own work and there is no reason we shouldn't remain independent of PXS," Isabel said bluntly.

"I suppose it is ultimately dependent on your decision," he sighed, slipping his finger into the small packet on his desk. "It just seems a shame that you should be forced to remain on the run, change your appearance," at this he slipped a strand of the hair Isabel had cut off before dying her hair blonde. She had never burned it, which meant that it was still in her bag. They do have all my stuff. "And it especially seems a shame that you have to hide your PokeBalls from everyone."

Isabel looked up from the lock of hair on his desk and narrowed her eyes. "Where have you taken my Pokemon?"

Drake saw a gigantic building looming above him. As they came to a stop he realized how exhausted he was. It seemed as someone was following him, but he'd lost the chubby kid a while ago."

"Crack" From somewhere behind a twig snapped

"Huh?" There was nobody there.

"Come on Drake, get back to the main objective now" He murmered to himself. Drake was way more jumpy than before, knowing there could be bounty hunters.

"Thanks Fay, now lets think of a plan" Drake sat down, but he saw Fay was eager to go in. "Spark, youre gonna have to give up your place to Fay, because i dont have her pokeball. Alright?"

"Pich Pichu!" Drake picked up Sparky and put him under his jacket, only then he dared grab his pokeball. If he returned him now, the red light would give away their position. He pressed the pokeball and put it under his jacket. It would atleast cover most of the light.

"Alright Fay, you can get in my backpack" Fay jumped in, and Drake closed the zipper, but left a tennis-ball sized gab on the end for air.

He turned the corner and saw a gigantic sign.

PXS

Drake didnt know what it meant, and wasnt kean to find out.

"Hey kid, PXS members only!" A guard stopped him from going inside, and Drake had no choice but to walk away.

Drake thought about what he was to do next while he walked out of eyesight. Suddenly he remembered; when they were on the side of the building, there were windows. They were locked, but it was his only way in. Running around through the forest he managed to get back to the side of the building.

How was he to do this, the first window was about twelve feet high. This was going to be harder than he thought.

He glanced around and finally found something to his liking. "hey fay, you mind helping me move this log up to the window?" Together they moved the log and put it upright. Meanwhile Sparky was digging under the window, and soon they could put the log in it. The log and its branches put upright would be just like a ladder.

It was about 10 minutes later when they finally managed to move the log back to the building. It had to be large for it to reach that high, and everybody knows; large equals heavy. They put the bottom in the pit Sparky dug, so that it wouldnt slide away, and then they rested.

Drake's back hurt from the dragging. If it hadn't been for Fay's psychic attack he wouldnt have made it. He put one of the berries in his mouth and returned Sparky to his pokeball. If he was lucky nobody had seen them dragging the log.

It was an easy climb. The branches provided foothold, and it was easy to find grip. Drake neared the top, and he could see a hallway. "This is gonna take time.."

Drake drew his katana and tried to slide it under the window. It was a lot harder doing it while ducking, but eventually he was able to disable the lock. It wasnt hard, you just had to poke your sword into the clip that was holding it together, and it would just dislocate the lock.

Now came the waiting, it took at least twenty minutes before the hallway was empty. He jumped in the hallway and pushed the log away. Hopefully it would roll down the hill, and not arouse suspision.

Now he could take a better glance at the hallway. It was full with doors, maybe offices. It looked kinda like a school, there were water fountains and some mirrors.

"Clang, Clang" It was easy to hear peoples footsteps on the marble floors. Only now did Drake notice they had identical uniforms.

He turned around a corner and waited there.

"Clang, Clang, Clang" Tension arose.

"Yeah lunch was great" He could hear the two people talking near his hiding spot.

"Great .." He said it a bit too loud.

"Huh? Who was that!"

"Sparky, shock them!"

Drake jumped out of his hiding together with sparky. It didnt matter if there was a red light, they knew he was there.

"Thud! Thud!"


=======================================================


Steven sat down. This job was his worst yet. He was the new guard, all he had to do was guard the doorway into the main operating rooms, and the cells.

"Clang, Clang" He looked up to find another member walking through the hallway.

"You new, kid?"

"Uhh yeah.." The kid stammered

"How old are you?"

"Huh? Oh, Fourteen" He could see the kid was nervous, like he was on his first day.

The guard shot a glance at the kid's card. It was routine, he looked at the name and the picture.

"Alright, go on"

The kid walked through the gate, into the cell area.


If the guard had taken a closer look at the kid's ID CARD he would have seen that the picture was a glued on passport picture, and the age was written on with a pernament marker.

Even if the guard did finally realize that; it was already too late.



(OOC: If you still dont understand it, Drake stole the persons id card and clothes, glued a picture of him on, and changed the 24 into 14, he was almost fourteen anyway so they wouldnt notice. The second part is from the guards point of view, and he does not notice the picture and age.)

A new person? Rena thought, overhearing a guard talking to someone else. She heard the kid say something about him being 14, but that was just about it. She had also heard someone from the "Uprising" was in PXS, but Rena couldn't pinpoint any other information regarding such. Eager to find out, she peacefully walked through some of the rooms, her Pokemon in their Luxury Balls.

As she walked down a long, winding hallway, she heard voices from one of the locked rooms. One of the PXS members said that the Uprising was helping them by acting as distractions, or something like that. She had also caught how the girl they were talking to asked where her Pokemon were. Rena sighed, and thought about the possibilities of what could happen if she was caught with her Pokemon.

If I were caught, they would probably be exported immediately. Rena gave a glum look on her face, something quite unusual for her. But her Pokemon meant everything to her, even if they were given to her by her late father, who had never let her discover the wonders outside her mansion. She continued listening to the conversation, and heard the PXS member say something about how it'd be a shame for the girl to be on the run, changing her appearance all the time. It seemed as though they were trying to get her to join PXS, but anyone could figure that out.

My god, girl, don't do it, Rena thought angrily. Pokemon are your FRIENDS! Your COMPANIONS! Even if they'll keep the stronger ones behind, those Pokemon are usually hard to tame unless you've been with them all your life!!! Rena nearly punched the wall in anger, but refrained from doing so.

"Dammit," she whispered. "Just... Don't... Join..." She thought about the first day PXS had recruited her. She was just walking around aimlessly, and had learned about the new law. Then, someone seemingly came up to her and asked her to follow. She did so without a second thought; she didn't know the importance of following strangers.

When she had arrived in that oh-so-very-strange place, a couple people had asked her to join. They said they were abiding by the new law, and that they'd export all the Pokemon, except for the most powerful ones. They mentioned how a group known as the "Uprising" were trying to fight against the new law. They then asked Rena to join.

Seeing how she had nowhere else to go, even if the group wanted to export most the Pokemon, Rena accepted the offer and soon came to be one of PXS's most trusted members. However, thinking back to that got Rena to wonder if it would be better if she joined the Uprising.

If I did, it would mean betraying these loonies. Not that it matters anymore... She sighed, and leaned against the wall right beside the door so she could pick up more of the conversation.
 
Drake ended up in a gigantic room. At first it looked like a factory, which indeed it was, but different. People were packing pokeballs and others were experimenting with them.

"... horrible" These people were taking pokemon from trainers and sending them away? ... PXS .. Pokemon .. Pokemon Exporting Services?

Up to now Drake did not realize what he was dealing with, but this was just too much. Where were the others?

He walked down the room, trying to act casual. Sometimes he stopped to inspect certain parts. There were boxes stacked with pokemon, sometimes there were even eggs.

He walked over to a pile of boxes where people were closing them up. He grabbed some tape and started taping up the boxes. He looked at all the pokeballs. What to do?

"Hey kid you new here?" A nearby worker asked him

"Uhh, Yeah" Drake had practiced his shy voice ... mainly from experience.

"Just make sure you dont mess up those boxes, they are very important"

"Yes Sir!" Drake acted motivated and started taping faster. Before he closed his box he felt some pity for the pokeballs. He lashed out and grabbed about 4 of them, which he quickly put in his jacket.

"And thats that" He murmered quietly. He promised he would come back for these boxes, he would save all these pokemon, maybe bring them to a proffessor so they could care for them. But for now thats all he could do.

"Oops, i forgot something" Drake scurried away with curious workers watching him. They soon lost interest when Drake went over to the living area. What they didnt know was that he soon swerved off to the left. He remembered the cells he saw earlier.

On his way he saw a seperate box. What was that? Maybe something special? He walked over to it and in it was a backpack. It looked familiar but Drake couldnt quite remember from where. "Uhh?" He didnt know what to do with it.

"What is it?" Someone said behind him. <Crap, ive been noticed> Drake scolded himself.

"Erm, do you know where this came from?" The man gave him a shady look.

"They made an announcement..." He seemed to think deeply about what to do.

"Oh this is my first day, i just arrived" That seemed to make up the man's mind.

"O ok, well this was convescated from one of the uprising." Uprising? Now he remembered, it was Isabel's

"Oh to uprising." Drake walked away, but when the man wasnt looking he walked back and grabbed the backpack.

"Better keep that close" He murmered. <Gotta get back to the main objective> Drake scolded himself again

He neared the cells, and crept closer. The cells were dungeon-ish. Even tough there were modern materials, it was just as dark, cold, and wet. There were pipes on the ceiling and he pulled himself up.

He entered the room with the cells, and he could see a chubby kid in the middle. Not here, he couldnt bother to arouse suspicion, he would comeback when it was dark, and thus he started climbing back.

(OOC this happens on the day of the fight in the sewers at the start it is miday but it goes on late into the night)

Paul had been on the run for several weeks and his stolen supplies had almost run out. He had ran out of food ages ago and while he had been eating beries he was always hungry. Also he only had two potions remaining most of them had been used up healing Slash who was not used to fighting when they first ran away. The only other remaining stolen goods Paul had were ten empty pokeballs, an escape rope and five stat boosting items.

It was time to get more supplies Paul decided, so at the next town he decided to stop, the town was crystal city. Outside the city Paul asked Slash to get into his pokeball, Slash refused turning his head up at Paul, Slash hated his pokeball.

"Ok if you won't get in your pokeball, I'll go in there by myself." Paul said knowing Slash hated leaving him alone even more than being in his pokeball. That was all it took to convince Slash to go back in his pokeball, with Slash safely stored away on his belt which was hidden under a long shirt, Paul set off in to crystal city.

The first thing Paul did was buy some tinned food and a can opener, he would eat the food if he couldn't find any berries in the future. Next Paul set off window shopping for anything that could be useful. While he was wandering around he heard a noise and looked round, the noise came from a man hole that was being opened in a near by alleyway. Paul hid behind some bins and watched as a girl climbed out of the man hole followed by another girl, a boy and a woman. The woman was holding something, it was a gun! Some thing happened Paul didn't see what and one of the girls fell to the floor. Then a man turned up and together the man and the woman took the two girls and the boy away. They must be in trouble Paul thought, he had to find out what was going on.

Paul followed them to a large building with a sign that read PXS, when he got near the building Paul noticed that there were gaurds near the building and hid from sight in some nearby bushes. While Paul was hiding he noticed another boy arrive with a pikachu and an espeon, he moved forward towards the boy, meaning to talk to him but then he thought what if he is with the PXS and stopped. As Paul placed his foot down Paul stood on a twig and it broke with a "Crack", Paul stood completely still as the boy turned and looked right past him. The boy hid his pokemon and set off again round the back of the building. Paul moved away from the building, deeper in to the woods and once he was out of sight of the building he released Slash.

"So what do you think then, are you up for going in there?" Paul asked, Slash responded with a "Scyyy" swinging its scythes eagerly.

"How are we going to get in then?" Paul asked and the began to come up with a plan.Whenthey had finished it was too late to start moving so they ate some berries and slept ready to go in at sun rise.

(OOC: the posts were kinda hard to understand)
The shockwave from the Earthquake snapped the door open, Ashi immediatly looked up.

"... No." Ashi replied to the boy with the Munchlax. As soon as the guard was unconcious, she marched out of the cell, not looking behind her. Thankfully, the guards had not noticed her bead PokéBalls and had not taken them. "Hurry up Chris, we don't have much time."

She slid against a wall and looked up the staircase. A figure approached and she readied herself to attack. The figure got closer and Ashi jumped in front, only to see Drake, the stupid young katana kid from before.

"Drake!?" Ashi said, bewilded. He was probably the person she least expected to see. He was wearing a PXS uniform, with the added accessory of an ID card. She shook her head.

"It was a mistake for you to come here. Go back to camp."

"Your Pokemon? No need to worry, Miss Evens," he said with a smile that Isabel now found unnerving. "They are currently being held in our infirmary and your little Eevee is being patched up and should be fine."

"My Pokemon are fine," Isabel said firmly. "I would like to have them back."

"I'm afraid we can't do that," his smile faded. "Not until you make your decision."

Isabel looked down at her hands and processed this in her mind. She met the man's eyes.

"No," she said matter-of-factly.

"I don't think you quite understand what I am offering you," he said impatiently.

"Oh? How is threatening my team's existence into joining you offering us anything?!" Isabel's fingers constricted around the arms of her chair.

"What I'm offering, what we're offering, is the chance for you to stop running," he managed to regain his composure. "We would supply you all with new identities, saying that the Uprising fled the region. You could still lead your team, only you wouldn't have to worry about how you would escape the Bounty Hunters or beat the odds against the law. You could have the chance to make a true difference against the government."

When Isabel didn't answer, he stood up and walked over to look out the window.

"We found some of your members and took them in," he said without turning. "Many of them agreed to join us because they knew that there was little they could do without out help."

They joined? Isabel thought, her heart sinking. The highlighted names...

"What about David?" Isabel asked, her voice louder than she intended. "Did he join?"

"Your co-leader?" Isabel saw him flinch slightly. "Unfortunately he refused to listen to reason. That is, not without your consent."

There has to be some reason he didn't join, Isabel turned over everything he said in her head. But what is it I'm not being told? Wait...

"How exactly did you get ahold of those members?" Isabel asked, her eyes narrowing.

"We've been trying to take you into our organization for a long time," he said. "And when the chance arose in Shadow Valley, of course we-"

"You planned the attack in Shadow Valley?!" Isabel gasped, abruptly standing up.

"We tipped off a large group of Bounty Hunters as to where you were located," he continued to stare out the window. "But that's hardly-"

"Members were killed!" Isabel shouted. She was losing control, but she didn't care. "Innocent townspeople were killed!"

"Those people were not innocent," he snapped. "They were one of the first to obey the law without a fight. The Katsu region is better off without those traitors."

The image of a young boy carrying his baby sister away from their burning home filled her mind. The Bounty Hunters hadn't let them get far.

"You were the ones who told the government we were the ones who destroyed the city," Isabel hissed, wiping the moisture from her eyes. "To distract them from your own involvement!"

"We are doing what we have to in order to keep our organization alive," he said in a calm tone.

"You want your precious distractions?" Isabel demanded, stepping in front of his desk and slipping the silver knife-like letter opener in her hand. "You've got it. Just let us go!"

"We're trying to save the Pokemon!" He shouted, turning around to face her. "We're doing what is best for the Katsu region!"

"Who are you kidding?!" Isabel screamed, visions of the destruction dealt out in Shadow Valley flashing through her mind. "You and your entire organization are just trying to take over the region! You don't care about the Pokemon or anyone who dies because of your work to 'fight the wrongs' here so long as you get what you want!"

(OOC: Like I said, I'd rather not have to make her stab him with the letter-opener.)
 
Paul awoke to the sight of the rising sun, he sliped out of his sleeping bag and prepared to leave. It was still early and Paul was hoping that there would be fewer guards around the PXS HQ because of it, infact his plan depended on it. He aproached the building sneaking through the undergrowth. There were fewer gaurds on duty than last night, Paul crawled round to the back of the building. There he released Slash and gave him a X-speed from his bag.

"Ready Slash" Paul asked, Slash didn't anwser he just darted out of the bushes and flew towards the building. Slash slamed in to the side of the building and bounced off with a BANG. The guards nearest Slash turned round and run towards him Slash ran back to the woods leading them away. As soon as they were out of sight Paul ran to the building an climbed in to the air vent that Slash had aimed for when he hit the building. It had knocked the cover off and the Gaurds too busy with Slash didn't notice it come loose. He pulled it back in to place and waited, Slash soon reappeared from the woods, the gaurds nowhere in sight left beind by Slash's extra speed, as soon as he did Paul withdraw him back to his pokeball. Now he was in.

Crawling throught the air vents Paul soon arived at a large open room, the vent was at least five meters from the floor. Inside the room there were several trucks, some of them loaded with pokeballs and others empty. From his vantage point Paul couldnt see anyone in the room. Turning round to sit in the vent Paul opened his bag and took out the escape rope, he opened the vent and tied the rope to the vent cover. Paul climbed down the rope and dropped to the ground, he looked round the room. It was a garage of some sort, in it there were ten trucks, more than he could see from above. At on end of the room there was a large set of steel doors. Behind Paul there was a click, he dived behind one of the trucks out of sight, three men walked into the room all in PXS uniforms.

"Right you two get the crates up to sorting" said one of the men who seemed to be the leader, he walked back out leaving the men to work. The two men walked over to one of the trucks, not the one Paul was behind, then one of them spotted the rope. Oh no or some thing like that crossed Pauls mind, he quickly ran through his options. There seemed to be only one choice, Paul grabbed three pokeballs in his left hand and Slash's ball in his right and threw them all at once. Slash appeared along with a shinx, a koffing and a vulpix. One of the guards went for the door but Slash cut him off stopping him in his tracks, the shinx took one lookat the man and ran out of the room. The koffing was quite clearly and released a smog attack, filling the room with a toxic smoke, that blinded Paul his eyes streaming. The vulpix released a jet of fire from it's mouth setting the smog on fire, causing the koffing to use it's explosion attack. The explosion was quite small and rather quite, must have been a low level koffing, but it knocked one of the PXS members. Paul wiped his eyes clear and looked round, the koffing was on the floor knocked out, the vulpix had been knocked out as well and Slash was stood on the other PXS members his scythes crossed infront of the mans face.

The man was unhurt and Paul wanted to keep it that way so he said "Knock him out Slash" as he withdrew the faint pokemon. Slash hit the man with the blunt side of one of his scythes. Paul got Slash to retrive the escape rope and he used to tie the men up. The next thing that Paul had to sort out was the run away shinx.

"It was a mistake for you to come here. Go back to camp." Well that was a nice welcome back! Drake came into this building to save them, and that was all he said.

"Listen, there is no camp, they're onto us, and i had to bring fay here" Fay poked her head out of his backpack as in response.

Ashleigh was just about to respond when they heard a sound behind them.

"Hey kid, its dangerous down here, you need adult supervision; ill be there in a second!" One of the guards yelled it from upstairs.

"Damn.." Drake muttered "Change of plans, wait here you guys"

He moved back just as the guard opened the door.

"Wha-" The guard noticed the prisoners

"Help, they escaped, help!" Drake acted like he was crying.

"Damn! Get behind me kid!" That was the first mistake the guard made. Drake did go behind him indeed, but as the guard reached for his gun he felt something cold and sharp pressed against his throat. He shifted his position, carefully so that he wouldnt get cut, and finally he saw the cause. The kid was holding a katana to the guards neck.

"But.. But" The guard stammered, but suddenly he realized what was going on. "You little brat.."

Drake grinned. "You got the picture. Now, move forward. Carefully they walked towards the other prisoners. That was when Drake remembered the chubby boy. "Dont you move, or he'll die!" The chubby boy was dancing around.

"You went all like WAAHH!, and the Guard went like OOOHH!" And then "Whoosh, whaa" The kid was running around, slashing a frying pan through the air. "And then you came up to the guard and ..." The boy lashed down with his frying pan.

"Clang"

The guard dropped to the ground.

"Well, ehh cool" Drake didnt know what to say.

"Not so useless now is it? He addressed ashleigh who clearly didnt like the fact that Drake saved them because they didnt have pokemon.

"Lets strip him of his tools" Ashleigh went over to the guard and grabbed his keys, radio reciever, and his gun.

A while later they had all rested, and gathered up at the door; ready to go.

(OOC: Did i bunny Charles too much, or was it unlike his personality? If so, pls tell me)
 
Rena continued listening in on the conversation. She heard something about the girl's Pokemon being in the infirmiry, and that was enough detail.

"Fia," she whispered, quietly calling out her Misdreavus. "I need you to go scare the guards in the infirmiry, so I can have Ein go in and take some Pokemon." The Misdreavus nodded, and floated off, soon vanishing in midair. Continuing to listen in on the conversation, Rena heard how members of the Uprising had joined PXS. She couldn't figure out who, however, was originally part of that group. She heard the girl ranting about how PXS hired some bounty hunters to track down the location of the Uprising, and that plenty of the members were killed. Even though she never really showed emotion, Rena couldn't help but feel pity for the remaining members.

Suddenly, a scream rang out and some of the PXS members came running down the hallway.

"Miss Siegfried! Miss Siegfried! HELP!!!" they shouted at her. "Th-there's a ghost in the infirmiry!" Annoyed at how they disrupted her from listening in (and how the ones behind the door had probably heard), Rena scowled, intimidating the men. She then went back to her emotionless expression, and calmly walked down the hallway towards the infirmiry.

When she entered, a big purple ball was swirling around right above the girl's Pokemon. Rena nodded, and the ball vanished, revealing Fia. Noticing some other Pokeballs around, Rena picked those up and recalled the Pokemon, including her own. She just finished putting the balls in her sack when the men came back to the infirmiry.

"The ghost... Thank you, Miss Siegfried," one of the men answered. Another man soon noticed the missing Pokemon. "Miss Siegfried, what have you done with the Pokemon?"

"I wish to take care of them elsewhere. We don't want the same thing happening now, correct?" Rena said wittingly. The men nodded in fear of starting an argument with her, And Rena walked off quietly back to the door...
 
Fay's tail tingled and the gem on her forehead began glowing. Her trainer was in trouble. The Espeon wriggled her way out of the boy's backpack and soundlessly dropped to the stone floor. She glanced back at the people standing in the hallway and, without checking if they were going to follow, began running in the direction her senses lead her.

***

"We're doing what is best for everyone!" he yelled.

"No, that's what I'm doing," Isabel hissed, jumping forward to stab him with the letter-opener.

The man's eyes flashed with rage and he pulled out a PokeBall Isabel hadn't seen before. A red flash momentarily blinded Isabel.

"Use Confusion!"

Isabel stumbled backwards when she was struck by a psychic force. Isabel blinked. A Hypno stood in front of her, slowly swinging its pendulum back and forth. A man stood behind it with a PokeBall in hand. What's going on?

"Switcheroo!"

The metal object she realized that she had been clutching was wrenched from her grasp and was replaced with a spotted shred of fabric. In a flash, the psychic Pokemon was back in position, waiting for orders. Suddenly, she grasped what was going on.

"Confusion," Isabel hissed.

The man merely gave her an unpleasant smile.

"Use Hypnosis," he commanded.

Isabel snapped her eyes shut and backed up into the glass display case. She slid along the wall, carefully covering her eyes. The move softly coaxed her eyes open and Isabel couldn't help but stare at the Hypno's pendulum as it slowly swung back and forth. Isabel grit her teeth as she struggled to fight the exhaustion that swept over her. I have to stay awake...

(OOC: Oh no, a Psychic Pokemon! If only there was a Ghost Pokemon that could help... *nudge nudge*)
 
(OOC: OR A DARK TYPE? ;D)

Ashi took the man's clothes and weapons and wore them over her own, they were too small for her anyways. She tied her hair into a tight bun and pulled it into a cap. He had a small knife and a PokéBall on him, she tucked the knife into her belt and released the Pokémon for a moment, revealing a Zubat. She returned it and tossed the ball to whoever in general.

"Save Isabel. I have to go get her," Ashi stated and ran up the stairs. She slowed down as she approached people, keeping her head slightly up and avoiding suspicion. She manouvered through the people, each of them nodding at her as she passed. It was quite amusing how many of them didn't even have a passing glance, how much did they trust the security here?

Ashi finally came up towards a set of doors at the end of a hallway, locked by card, much more nicer than the other doors in the facility. She stepped foward to open them when someone yelled, "Oi! You, the boss is having a meeting!"

"Sorry. I'm a bit lost. Well, that, and I'm curious what the boss is up to," Ashi said, guessing half she said. The man laughed in return.

"We're all curious... I guess, I could show you to room next to it. It's completely empty, and the walls are hardly soundproof. " The man winked and lead her around the room, into another. He was telling the truth, it was empty and it was easy to hear through.

"We're doing what's best for everyone!" The man's voice rang.

"No, that's what we're doing!" Isabel yelled back. Ashi sighed in relief, she was alive. But Ashi wasn't in the room, and there was someone in this room. A series of yells followed which involved a Pokémon of somesort.

"What the heck is going on in there?" The man leaned closer to the wall. Ashi saw her chance and quickly grabbed the man around the neck and used the 'sleeper hold' technique she had been taught a while ago. His body went limp and Ashi carefully dropped him on the ground, without making a noise.

Ashi whipped around as the handle clicked and the door swung open and closed again, a girl no older than 16 walked in. Ashi's heart stopped and started again. She had been caught.

Instead of sounding the alarm, the girl's face stayed emotionless. She folded her arms and said "What are you doing?"

(OOC: Sorry for bunnying. But, I was thinking we'll have a fast introduction, join forces, kick that guy's butt and get out of here. Sounds ok?)
 
(Eh, it's OK. Just don't try to do it often. It may be kinda hard to control Rena, but then again, who knows?)

Rena sighed, for she knew what the girl was up to. Probably trying to get the other girl out, eh? she thought, her face staying emotionless. She walked a bit further down, then turned around.

"Well, you can come now, if you want," she replied. But she didn't know what the girl would do. She seemed maybe, lost? Oh well, it wasn't Rena's problem, at least. Deciding to just send her Pokemon in, Rena called the two out.

"Fia, Ein. I need you two to be very sneaky, alright?" she asked the two. They both nodded, and Rena then proceeded to whisper into their ears. Fia then flew off into the room Rena had eavesdropped upon, and Ein waited patiently outside the door. As soon as she heard the scream, Rena gave a swirly sort of motion to Ein, who immediately burst through the doors, flinging Pokeballs everywhere. Five Eeveelutions popped out, as well as a regular Eevee. The Misdreavus nodded at them all, as if perhaps communicating telepathically? (if they can learn Psychic through a TM or Psybeam through leveling up, then anything's possible) The Pokemon proceeded to attack anyone in the room, unincluding the girl, Fia, and Ein, and Rena stood outside the door.

"Come on! What are you waiting for?" she asked. "Now's our chance!" Not willing to wait for the girl's response, Rena recalled Fia and Ein and ran through the hallways, shouting "Screw PXS! It shall soon fall!" Although a bit edgy for someone of her demeanor, it felt good to finally release all that tension she had inside. As she ran out into the glistening light, Rena sighed. At last, I... No, WE'RE free... she thought, gasping at the gorgeous light she had only seen before becoming part of PXS.

(Oh, if it's OK, can she get a Glaceon? I know, I know, too many Eeveelutions and Eevee. But this is through the wild; she didn't start with it... ><')
