War Between Pokemon & Humans [PG-17] [Best Rookie July '11/Best Veteran Aug/Sep '11]

Rumble
Oreburgh City
Next to Armory

"No, Rumble, this is the exact time when we should be rushing. If we send a few spies now...there should be time while everyone gathers. Once everyone has arrived in Oreburgh, we are going to move out, so we're going to have to give the spies some kind of signal to let them know to return. As for the Legendary Pokemon, that will be summoned, we'll do it once we begin moving. For now, everyone must come here to Oreburgh. Meet with me in an hour to discuss the battle plan. Bring any other people with you who know a thing or two about strategy, including Khufu."

Rumble couldn't resist a smile at Hector. He brought up to his mind his knowledge about psychology, laughing at the fact that the commander always disagreed with him. It did matter to Rumble's ego, but his other side just shrugged it off, simply stating that Hector actually misunderstood his thoughts about "not rushing".

The desperate need of control leads them to disagree with the stronger one.. Or maybe it's simply his personality. Either way it's annoying.

He shook his head slighty, losing his smile and nodded to the Arcanine before him. He got lost in his thoughts right away. Did he know anyone with knowledge on strategic battle plans?

Rumble glanced at Lydia. She'd be leaving soon - even though she had disappointed him, Rumble would let her go on that mission, with the escape plan always in mind.
The psychic Pokemon started moving out of the backalley.

"Let's see each other in the Commander's room?"

It wasn't clear to who he was talking to - Hector or Lydia. Still lost in his thoughts about psychology and strategy, he levitated slowly like a ghost in the streets, his destination was in the darkest corner of his mind. He entered the building and looked around, only to be saluted by some small Pokemon, but he couldn't notice them; just in that corner in the hall, was standing that Weavile he had seen in the holocaust.

"Heh. Who do we have here? Mrs. Weavile!" He yelled at her in his fake, happy voice but with no smile on. His expressions were serious as he recognized a true opponent in the Weavile, but he still got closer to her, just about 1 meter, heightening his levitation, keeping the Weavile under his shadow.


"Ruthless, vicious and pretty. Dangerous combination!" Rumble allowed himself a small smile as he saw her sarcastic reply incoming.

Logan Johnson
Veilstone City
Streets

Logan drove blissfuly through the streets of Veilstone. Logan knew that the Pokemon could strike at any moment, and that it would be best to enjoy whatever peace would be left to enjoy. Logan turned right towards the highway that would lead him to Lake Valor. Logan knew that the Pokemon would eventually strike at Sunnyshore, and that Logan would have to fight them. Logan headed down the highway, observing the Natural surroundings, before they would be destroyed. The war annoyed Logan, as it stopped him from his profits in the Assassin business, which paid well. Logan had never owned a Pokemon, so the war seemed weird to him. But anyways, these days it seems that the army is Logan's client and the Pokemon are the target. Logan took the next exit marked: Sunnyshore City. Logan drove down the highway, taking a occasional glance at the Ocean, which was quite beautiful. Within time, Logan saw the buildings of Sunnyshore City, the last frontier for the human race.

Mandel
Oreburgh City
Streets
​

Mandel had felt an unnerving rage building up inside himsice Rumble had arrived and spoken to them. He had dragged Lydia off before he could respond, just as soon as Mandel had plucked up the courage to talk to her about the recent events. He cared so deeply for Lydia that he couldn't stand the all that had happened anymore.

"Grrrrr..." Mandel began to make a slight snarl and a dark wing blew. Leaves began to break off of Mandel and seperate into the wind which was slowly starting to spin around Mandel. The wind became faster and faster, spinning at an alarming pace, as Mandel began to deteriorate into it. It hurt, Mandel wasn't bothered. He was almost completely soaked up into the wind, when he sensed someone pushing there way through the maelstrom of dark leaves and placing there hand on his shoulder. Mandel began to calm down and the leaves began to rejoin and reform into Mandel.

Mandel turned to face the being who had placed their hand on his shoulder. It was another Leafeon a pure one. It began to speak in a voice very similar in tone and pitch to Mandels, only deeper.

"Oh my boy... what has happened to you." Mandel slumped and fell into the leafeons arms.

This was the Leafeon from the vision Celebi had shown him. This was his father.

"How did you... you weren't supposed to be able to..." Mandels father was at a loss for words.

"Mandel... Mandel look at me."

Mandel rose from his fathers arms and looked at him. The leaves had reformed Mandel, but the black wind was still surrounding them. Blocking off all vision in and out. His father spoke.

"Mandel, my name is Kaleb. I am your father."

Mandel was teary eyed.

"I know Dad, I know."

Kaleb smiled sympathetically at his son.

"Son I wish I could stay longer but my time runs short I must give you a message."

"Wait, what do you mean your time runs short?" Mandel said with a confused tone.

Kaleb began to talk in rushed speach.

"Your pendant mandel your pendant! Sigh... listen because I can only say this once. The day I disappeared from your Mother side was the day I died. You had been given to the human family a month before-hand and your mother and I were planning on moving back to her homeland of snowpoint city. However the day we were destined to set off I heard dreadful news. The first bad trainer had cropped up and he was using his Rhyperior to destroy my good friend Celebis shrine. I had to save the shrine but your mother, insisted she helped me... she could have perished in the insuing fight so I couldn't in my heart let her join me... so I did something I will never forgive myself for, I told her I didn't love her anymore. She was so upset she ran away and I went to fight the Rhyprior alone. I managed to defeat the Rhyperior and send the human packing, but I died in the process. In my dying moments I begged Celebi to find some way of telling my eife, your mother, I still loved her. She proposed I ask you to do it for me since she can't interact directly with non-grass type pokemon. I obviously had to wait for you to grow up and I instructed Celebi to tell you of your mothers location in snowpoint when you were old enough. I then asked Celebi to seal my remaining life force into a small crystal made from the leaf on my chest. The same crystal she gave you as a pendant. Ever since then I have been with you, waiting for you to find your mother. The pendant was sealed with an ammount of Celebis power, when the power was done sustaining me, it would go into you, granting you a small piece of a legends power as my final gift to you, this was all meant to transpire when you felt love for another pokemon. I assumed this pokemon would be your mother, but somehow someone has set it off early. I lent you my power and let you channel it into yourself through the amulet, and when you became tainted, so did I, which is why the amulet turned black, however I feel you don't need the amulet now. With your own strength and a small fragment of Celebis power... I think you'll do... just..... fine........"

Mandel thought of Lydia when Kaleb mentioned love. Just then Kaleb fell to the ground.

"Dad!" Mandel cried.

Kaleb smiled up at Mandel.

"My boy... I'm so proud of the strong pokemon you've come to be... t... tell your Mother that I... that I still...."

Mandel began to cry.

"I will Dad... I will *sob*"

Kaleb closed his eyes.

"Thats my boy... thats my strong, brave little boy... I... I'm sorry I wasn't able to see you grow up into the strong pokemon you are today."

Mandel held his father.

"Its not your fault Dad... It was never your fault. I forgive you."

Kaleb let out a sigh and closed his eyes, The maelstrom had drawn tighter on Mandel and Kaleb, spinning at a violent pace.

"Thank you my son... that means more to me than you will ever know..."

The Maelstrom began to calm and fade as wounds began to appear on Kalebs body. Wounds from the battle with Rhyperior all those years ago, temporarily removed with the power that now resided within Mandel.

Kalebs body suddenly fell limp in Mandels arms and Mandel began to panic.

"S...Someone! Anyone, Please someone has to help him!!!"​

Jun's "lucky day"
Outside Hearthome

Jun had made one major mistake… he forgot the Ravager was between him and the forest. After turning his head back toward the forest all he could see was a metal leg driving itself into his chest. Knocking the breathe out of Jun and knocking him to the ground. "So that smoke did come from you," said the external speaker on the Ravager as it stepped on Jun pushing his chest into the ground. If it pressed any harder it would crush his ribs.

One of the soldiers walked over next to Jun and said, "This must be your lucky day…" Then the soldier hopped on the Ravager while it stepped off of Jun's chest. The second soldier said to Jun, "If you had been in Donegal we would have executed you on the spot… but good for you… you're not and our ROEs do not allow us to give you justice. And we can't stay here any longer so go and betray your kind… there is a special ring in **** for **** bags like you."
The Ravager then walked off ignoring the HR leader. The Donegal Forces were being recalled completely.

Varik
Ruins of Pokemon Mansion
Route 212

Varik was moving south a "different" man. His voice was being changed by a small device hidden in his throat (which sucked to get in there), and much of his outward body appearance was different including his skin color which was a bit paler. All of this was thanks to Angel. Angel was actually a LOKI operative, a secret organization that answered only to the Archon, who was a master at this type of appearing and disappearing. Angel had trained Varik a little before coming here and had set him up with the equipment he needed to pull it off.

Why a LOKI member had joined the order was disturbing to Varik, but he accepted the help since he needed it. Since he couldn't find Skyna anywhere here and the next best place to look was the Pokemon's main city it seemed. He wasn't going to just walk in there… he needed a plan, but he had nothing right now. He avoided Hearthome since there was a chance someone might ID him there. He moved onto 212 through the forest. He had to be careful to avoid the local pokemon, but he encountered none… the forest was so quiet and lifeless other than the trees. After several hours he came to a heavily damaged mansion. Pulling out his dart pistol he carefully went inside and started to check the place out. Thankfully there was no one there… no humans or pokemon. He did find some remains of humans and some pokemon. It looked like there had been a battle here, but that had been a while back.
Carefully choosing a spot in the mansion he sat against the wall to take a nap. He needed his energy for the tasks ahead, and he needed time to think. He had rashly executed his own death and now he had no idea what to do. First he had to find Skyna, and then he would focus on his main task. Everything he had seen up to this point reinforced the objectives in his mind. It was a long shot, but he had to try…

---

Skyna
Oreburgh
Next to Mandel

The Gardevoir stepped back from Mandel and watched the whole event unfold. She was confused by what was happening, but when everything finished happening. She heard Mandel scream out for help she stepped up and tried to heal Kaleb… but there was nothing there to heal. The vision began to fade away as she healed the ground instead of the Pokemon. "Mandel… there is nothing to heal… It's a vision… or a bodiless soul," she said as she continued to try to heal Kaleb. She knew it was useless, but perhaps it would help Mandel if she at least tried.

 

[Aura Rift]

Mandel
Oreburgh City
Outside the armoury​

Mandel watched as the Gardevoirs attempts at healing his father simply passed through him. There was nothing to be done... his father had died a long time ago. Mandel watched as his fathers very being began to fade. Suddenly from the bottom up his fathers body began to turn into vibrant green leaves which flew up into the air.​

He realised that his Father had never actually been here, that it had just been his fathers spirit saying its last goodbye. Mandel began to cry again. It wasn't fair, why did he have to die just when he met him. Why was it that he didn't get to be loved or cared about by anyone for more than five seconds! Everything he ever loved had somehow been taken away from him. His original family, Lydia, his father. What on Earth was it? Why did Arceus above consider him unworthy of something as basic as love? Mandel felt the leves on his body glow a pure black which enveloped his body. Leaving nothing but a shadow with glowing orange eyes. Is this what is meant for him? To be a creature of Darkness and fight in the name of a cause he was beginning to wonder was right. He turned his head to see Lydia standing in an alleyway a small bit away. The shadows fled back into Mandels body and left him as he was, she still gave him a small shred of hope. Mandel didn't know what to believe anymore. Other than her he had nothing to hold onto, nothing to live for. No, that wasn't true. He had a mother, he had never met her, but he had a Mother and he had something to tell her, he had to tell her that his Dad never stopped loving them. He stood up. He turned and looked to the North, thats where his Mother was. Mandel had to get there. He turned to the Gardevoir.​

"Thank you for trying to help me. I understand what my father was trying to tell me now." He looked down at his pendant it was now a pure crystaline clear, not a speck of dark or color, just purity.​

Mandel began to walk North, but started thinking. He thought of everyone he had met. Lydia, Abe, Khufu and Hector, all of them were his friends, could he really just leave? The answer was obvious. Mandel stopped walkingand looked up at his fathers leaves blowing in the wind.​

"I'm sorry Dad... but theres other things I need to attend to before I find Mom..." Mandel smiled and shut his eyes.​

"But I promise I will find her." Mandel began to walk back into Oreburgh he walked past the spot where his father was lost and straight towards the alley where Lydia was.​

"Lydia, I have to talk to you." He said, a sad smile on his face.​

 

[XxSweetDreamsxX]

Lydia
Oreburgh City
Alley

"NO you can't! If I cared about everyone in here we'd all be dead meats!" the Reuniclus shot out, his face closing into hers with both of their glowing eyes countering each other. Rumble's voice was pure madness, his frustration clear and frightening. The small pokemon inside her mane tucked more into her fur in reaction to his booming voice. Lydia allowed her friend to turn away, but both of their frowns were large. Nothing could persuade her to change her mind, as Rumble was probably the same. "I feel vengeful for the humans, but that makes me waste my time with stupid city invasions just to feel the risk and the touch of adrenaline. Nothing more stupid than a genius like me wasting his time with them". The Zorua kept quiet, trying to release her ever growing tension. Her ruby eyes immediately stopped glowing at the voice of Hector, who quickly went to face her friend. She kept her ears up.

"Field General Rumble! I'm giving a widespread order for everyone from the PR to gather here in Oreburgh. Send Pokemon to every corner of our territory and get every member. We're launching our final assault. We're taking Sunyshore". Lydia smiled, overly happy to know their nonstop fighting would soon be over, as would the war. She looked upward to Rumble, who's expressions were serious in eye-contact to the Arcanine. "I see. But let's not rush it here, Arcturus. The human forces might have improved even more... Do we have time for our spies to infiltrate Sunyshore? Also, when are we going to summon Groudon?".
"No, Rumble, this is the exact time when we should be rushing. If we send a few spies now...there should be time while everyone gathers. Once everyone has arrived in Oreburgh, we are going to move out, so we're going to have to give the spies some kind of signal to let them know to return. As for the Legendary Pokemon, that will be summoned, we'll do it once we begin moving. For now, everyone must come here to Oreburgh. Meet with me in an hour to discuss the battle plan. Bring any other people with you who know a thing or two about strategy, including Khufu".
Groudon? The continental pokemon? Lydia had no idea how they were to summon such a large pokemon to war, but if they did, there would be nothing to hold the PR back. As for Sunyshore, she was a spy, but now also a mother. The Zorua would have to have someone watch her egg and baby if she was ever going to gather information again. Looking upward,the Reuniclus was glancing at her with a small smile. "As always, I'll be having an escape plan. I have a hunch the longlegs might be preparing a surprise in Sunnyshore. You never know, so try to keep in touch with me," he advised, Lydia nodding obediently.

"Let's see each other in the Commander's room?" Rumble said aloud, neither looking at Lydia nor Hector. She nodded once more before letting the two leave, her friend levitation in resemblance to a ghost. Lydia shrugged to herself, not sure what to do. Peering inside her bag, she moved aside the large egg to grab some snacks with her tiny paw, handing them to the little pokemon she had on her back. It eagerly accepted them before shoving all of them into its mouth.

"Lydia, I have to talk to you," a voice said, the Zorua turning to see Mandel again. He had a depressing smile on which only made her feel worse. She let out a sigh, "I'm listening…"

(soz for short post)​

"I'm listening…" Lydia said. with a sigh.​

"I just came to tell you that after this battles over I plan on leaving... and I don't intend on coming back." Mandel closed his eyes.​

"I have someone I have to take care of in snowpoint city. I just wanted you to know as I don't know if we'll get a chance to talk after this is all over." Mandel reopened his eyes and sighed.​

"Everything thats happened between us and everything that the war has done to us shouldn't matter. Your one of the only things that kept me going up to this point and I don't want to leave with this barrier between us."​

Mandel smiled.​

"I guess what I'm trying to say is..."​

Mandel stopped for a moment then bowed his head and continued.​

"Its been an honour to meet you Lydia the Zorua."​

Althalos Fizen
Sunnyshore City
Mark's Condo

Althalos woke up abruptly. He hadn't even known he had passed out on the couch. He had been having a dream the same as the hallucination he had in Oreburgh. "I know where he is, Blitz." Althalos said and got up. He grabbed his weapons from where Mark had put them and then left. "Sorry, Mark." You'll either need Silence back or have to do your little mission on your own. I won't be back for possibly a few days. Tell Jack that I have business to attend to if you get the chance to talk to him. Bye, Lilac, Mark. Best of luck to the both of you in the future." He said and left. Althalos sprinted all the way to the helipad at the HQ and told his pilot to take him to Jubilife. The pilot gave him a concerned look. "But isn't that a city controlled by pokemon now?" Althalos nodded. "Look, I'll pay you half of whatever I get for my next two pay checks. I need to go to the river that separates Jubilife and Canalave. Keep your radio to my private channel at all times. I might need a quick evac." With that, the helicopter took off towards Jubilife.

"Sorry, Mark, You'll either need Silence back or have to do your little mission on your own. I won't be back for possibly a few days. Tell Jack that I have business to attend to if you get the chance to talk to him. Bye, Lilac, Mark. Best of luck to the both of you in the future." Althalos was gone before Mark could get out a simple "Wait." He stood up and jogged over to the door which wasn't shut. Taking off after the spy, He got to the helipad a second to late. He took out his Silence smg, pulling out the clip and shooting the chambered bullet into the pavement and tossed it into the black hawk following with the clip. He yelled "Spray and pray, It solves any problem!" as loud as he could then gave a quick wave and headed out of the airfield. There was a gunsmith somewhere in the city, he just didn't remember where. Mark had been meaning to get a new gun for some time now, and now that he had handed off his MP-7, he could pick up an assault rifle. He asked around and was directed to a brick building. Mark entered the building and talked to the smith who agreed to make him a custom ACR pretty cheap. With that Vargas headed back to his home on the beach.

Jason Fox
Sunny-Shore

The group of soldiers and I were called into sunny shore to set up a better base camp. I looked at the Ravager, It couldn't just sit out here. I walked over to it and opened the hatch. I connected the wire to connect my brain to the machine and pressed the button. I got shocked and saw an image. It looked like a person... they looked very sick. Not like fever sick like dying sick. There was a redish haze around the person. I then noticed a pokemon in the background, it looked sick to. I tried to make out who the person was. It looked... like... me? I lost the image in my head and was awakened by the Ravager HUD. I caught my breath and began moving the Ravager into SunnyShore. I was getting better at maneuvering it. I took it to the back part of the city and lowered it down. I pressed the button again so I was released. I unplugged the wire and stepped out of the Ravager. A few choppers showed up and dropped off some HR, weapons, and ammunition. One soldier jumped off and approached me. "Are you the new Ravager Pilot?" The soldier asked "Yes thats me at your service." I responded with a salute. He saluted back and said "Tune your radio to channel 752 so you can communicate with other Ravager Pilots and other vehicles. Hope you know how to drive that monster."
"Yes sir" I responded. I walked over to the Ravager and put on my helmet.

I opened the hatch and got into the Ravager. I wired up the wires again as I can't tune my radio for the Ravager without it being on. I then pressed the button and got shocked out cold again. All I could see was gun fire, and hyper beams. I then was able to see some sort of orb or circle dropping from the sky. It hit the ground and a Large explosion went off. The sonic boom of the explosion came in fast. I saw the Ravager HUD as it hit me. Then I was awakened. I tuned my helmet to channel 752 and could hear other Ravager Pilots talking. I just ignored it for now and turned off the Ravager. Almost got out without pushing the button but I caught my self. I pressed the button and got out of the Ravager.

Mark Vargas
Sunyshore
Somewhere...

Mark was thinking about his little assassination mission, he was flying into enemy territory solo now. He was going to need to be Prepared and he was going to need some repairs on his armor. He looked around the city for someone who could repair his lightly damaged armor and found a small shop downtown. Mark walked in to be greeted by the person working the counter. "Hello," She said "Need something?" 'No I walked in just to be able say I walked in this store.' Mark thought. "Yes, I do, Restroom?" He said, The woman pointed to the back. Mark walked into the bathroom and changed into his *off duty* clothing which was always in his backpack and kept out his armor vest. He walked out and placed the vest on the counter, "Can you fix this and add a custom patch for me?" He asked. The woman nodded and took "Pick it up tomorrow morning she said before closing the door to the back room. Mark then began to head home again. When he arrived he walked in and flopped over on his bed, passing out within minutes.

Silence Quickslash
Oreburgh City
PR Base

"Heh. Who do we have here? Mrs. Weavile!" A voice Silence had come to learn as Rumble called. Sure enough, the Reuniclus' shadow covered her. "Ruthless, vicious and pretty. Dangerous combination!"

Silence leaned back against the wall with her hands behind her head. "What do you want, Rumble?" she asked boredly while still watching pokemon go about doing whatever it is they were supposed to be doing. "You didn't just come for idle talk, did you?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lilac Brown
Sunnyshore City
Mark's Condo

Althalos got up abruptly. Lilac jumped, a bit startled. "I know where he is, Blitz," he said. "Sorry, Mark. You'll either need Silence back or have to do your little mission on your own. I won't be back for possibly a few days. Tell Jack that I have business to attend to if you get the chance to talk to him. Bye, Lilac, Mark. Best of luck to the both of you in the future." With that, he was gone with Mark running after him. Lilac muttered something under her breath than went to one of the unoccupied rooms. She placed her knives on the nightstand in case she needed them than flopped down on the bed. Slowly, her eyes drifted shut and she fell to sleep.

"What do you want, Rumble?" The Weavile leaned againist the wall with her hands behind her head, looking at the Pokemon getting passed by.

"You didn't just come for idle talk, did you?"

Rumble crossed his enormous gel arms, still slightly smiling. He stared at the Weavile, examining her.

"I'd never waste my time like that. I'm talking to you as the PR general." Rumble's large eyes fell into her fur and feathers, his smile getting bigger.
"You've been running lately, hm? Where were you then?"

His cold amber eyes met hers. The moment was tense, Rumble perked up his ears and kept the same levitation altitude.

 

[Fort PokePower]

Silence Quickslash
Oreburgh City
PR Base

Rumble crossed his arms and stared at Silence. "I'd never waste my time like that. I'm talking to you as the PR general," he said. Silence narrowed her eyes at him. She wanted to ask him about Khufu but decided that could wait. Rumble continued, "You've been running lately, hm? Where were you than?"

Silence shrugged nonchalantly. "I had a score to settle with a human that has been getting on my nerves since the battle at Jubilife," she replied. Her eyes gave away nothing. "And don't try reading my mind. You should know dark-types are incredibly resiliant to anything psychic-related."

((OOC: Btw, the only reason Silence was effected by hypnosis is because she was already incredibly exhausted.))

Silence shrugged and Rumble's eyes glowed for an instant, his smile remaining on his face.
"I had a score to settle with a human that has been getting on my nerves since the battle at Jubilife."

"And don't try reading my mind. You should know dark-types are incredibly resiliant to anything psychic-related."

Rumble lowered levitation, getting closer to the Weavile. Her eyes seemed blanc, although their bright red colour. He whispered in a plain and serious voice.

"Oh yesss, I can read your mind, sweetheart." The sarcasm in his voice was dripping all over the place and his mocking eyes were giving the usual feeling that that Pokemon knew everything. He turned serious again, remembering he was a general.

"No, logic is my weapon. I can't 'read minds' like all the non-psychic Pokemon believe we do." Rumble was still staring into the Weavile's eyes, not caring if she returned the look.

"And what exactly happened with the human? If you've been in Sunnshore, you could prove yourself useful to the PR."

The pressure he put in her was necessary. He wanted to know, not only for the PR but for himself as well.

 

[Karma Police]

Jack Spark
Near Hearthome City

Jun got up and ran away. He picked up a smoke grenade, and chucked it at the ground. Jack managed to run away just in time, and the grenade blasted behind him. The smoke entered Jack's lungs, and he collapsed onto the ground, choking, coughing, and gasping for breath.

He saw Jun run into a Ravager, and the Ravager pinned him to the ground. Jun was almost crushed under the huge machine, but the soldiers simply walked away, ignoring Jack. Jack walked up to Jun on the ground, and said, "Sorry Jun, but you don't have a clean record. You have been accused of betrayal twice before. And that escape does NOT help your case." Jack took his claws out, and stabbed Jun in the chest, puncturing his lungs. He wasn't sure whether Jun could survive this, but he didn't care. He couldn't trust him.

Jack walked back towards Hearthome City, tired by everything that had happened over the last few days. He ad mostly been unable to get even a wink of sleep, and he was seriously deprived of sleep.

When he reached Hearthome, he ordered a helicopter due for Sunyshore. Soon, the arrangements were made, and in 10 minutes Jack was in the air.

Jack looked out of the window, at the beautiful landscape of Sinnoh. It was one of the most beautiful things he had ever seen. The peaceful and calm landscape of Sinnoh, with Mt. Coronet in the distance....all ravaged and torn by war.

"If I'm forced to drop that nuke...I may be the only person to have seen this view. Alive, that is." Jack thought. Dropping the nuke was the last resort. He didn't want to to do this. Not at all.

Soon, Jack landed in Sunyshore. The trip had only taken 20 minutes. He walked out, and inquired about the location of Mark. He was in his condo, and Jack headed over there.

He opened the door of Mark's condo with a loud slam. He walked in, and searched the rooms. He saw Mark sleeping in one of the rooms, and shook him awake, saying, "Wake up Mark. Get ready for a meeting."

He searched the other rooms, and saw a girl sleeping in one. It was the girl from Hearthome, Silence's trainer, Lilac. He woke her up too, and said, "Wake up, I need you to wake up. I need to know your current status in the HR, and want to discuss a few things. Also, uh....I don't know how to say this, but sorry bout Hearthome. I hope Wade didn't hurt you much..." Jack headed out of the room, waiting for the two people to meet him.

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

Sky Ace
Oreburgh City

Ace had been doing his own errands since he had come back. He had changed a lot since he had visited Mt. Coronet. His parents last wish had been to change Ace into a better Pokemon. He had grown compassionate towards other Pokemon, helping them while the Commander was busy discussing the next plan.

He had visited the Pokemon Center, and had healed himself up. He got weapons, fetched items, and had generally helped people heal themselves up. When he was done, he had walked out into the streets, roaming around the city.

He walked outside the armory, and saw a Weavile and a familiar Reuniclus. He walked over to the duo, who were busy in a conversation, and he recognized the Weavile as Silence, an old member of the PR. The other Reuniclus was obviously, Rumble.

Ace spoke up, "Hello Rumble, nice to see you again."

 

[Ray Maverick]

Rumble
Oreburgh City
Armory

(OOC: rusty you cheaky lil fella you were waiting for me to get inside the base so I couldn't attack you! pff)

Rumble opened the recorder of the supercomputer in his right arm as he awaited Silence's response. But before she could say a thing, he heard a voice he hated more than the humans; Ace. He turned around abruptly, losing his smile. His eyes reflected insanity and anger was written all over his face.
The Trick Room he used stole all the agility from the Weavile and the Pidgeot, letting Rumble charge forward and grab the bird Pokemon from around his neck, with both of his hands.
It did seem like an attack, but all the Pokemon around were staring. Rumble's intentions changed in an instant, as he whispered in a metallic voice piercing his opponents mind.

"You.. dare coming here? Nobody messes with me! Get it? NOBODY!"

He yelled the last word from behind his teeth and then grinded them in anger. A metallic sound was heard from his right hand's glove as he shook the Pokemon who made fun of him. He let go of him and backed off. His expressions hadn't changed one bit and he meant every one of his words.

"You think your trick was funny? HUH? Wanna see a trick? HOW ABOUT I MAKE YOUR FACE DISAPPEAR?"

Rumble whispered again, yelling the last words, not caring if the other Pokemon heard him. He stood still with half closed eyes from anger and his efforts to control it. Killing that Pidgeot now was pointless and things would get messy, Rumble tried to convince himself listening to his response would be the best for the insane momentum.

"Wake up Mark. Get ready for a meeting." Jack said shaking Mark. He waved off Jack and sat up on the bed rubbing his eyes and then got up. He found Jack waking up Lilac. "How do all you people know I'm in sunyshore?" Mark asked "Oh, And I would be careful waking her up, might end up like Wade." Mark said with a slight chuckle. He walked out into the living room and checked the time, 6:00 PM. Mark picked up the radio off the coffee table and switched it to the frequency his pilot used. "Change of plans, Pick me up at 10:00 PM tonight." The pilot responded "Roger." Mark sat on the couch and waited for Jack.

There wasn't much to do here, I didn't have any friends in years. After the pokemon attacked I never heard from them. i looked at my M1A1, it was starting to get beat up. I pulled out my wallet and looked at how much money I had, I had about $1000. I asked around if any one new any gun shops. I was directed to a brick building. I walked in and looked around. Before I bought any thing I had to remember I was a Ravager Pilot so I can't carry anything big. I looked towards the SMGs and I found a UMP-45. I shelled out the money and bought it. I took my new gun back to the Ravager and put it in my back pack. I took my M1A1 and set it down on a table. I loaded a few Magazines for my UMP-45 and put them into my back pack.

I began thinking about those visions I had. How would I get sick, Im completely fine now. Hit with poison sting? No it can't be, there was a pokemon that was sick in the background. I couldn't think of what this could possibly be.

"Wake up, I need you to wake up," someone was saying as they shook Lilac awake. "I need to know your current status in the HR, and want to discuss a few things. Also, uh... I don't know how to say this, but sorry bout Hearthome. I hope Wade didn't hurt you much..."

In a flash, Lilac had her knife to Jack's throat and an angry look in her eyes. "I don't know, commander," she said through gritted teeth. "What is my status? You should know. You're the one who used one of your own to try to get information out of an enemy. If I hadn't gotten out when I did I wouldn't be surprised if your little pet killed me!" As she spoke, her voice got higher and higer and until she was screaming the last words.

PR Base

"Oh yesss, I can read your mind, sweetheart." Sarcasm dripped from Rumble's voice than he turned serious again. "No, logic is my weapon. I can't 'read minds' like all the non-psychic Pokemon believe we do." Rumble was still staring into the Silence's eyes and she returned the look evenly. "And what exactly happened with the human? If you've been in Sunnyshore, you could prove yourself useful to the PR." Silence had expected something like this and had her reply ready, but before she could say it a Pidgeot came up to the two.

"Hello Rumble, nice to see you again," the Pidgeot said. Rumble went into a rage and grabbed the bird by its neck. Silence just walked away. She didn't want to get mixed up in someone else fight. She went through the PR Base until she found who she was looking for. She stood behind the Arcanine that was Hector Arcturus.

"Rumble said that he was now general. Did something happen to Khufu while I was gone?" she asked the PR commander.
