"Argh, for goodness sake..." Why was I talking like that before? 'Cause, memory of that incident's quite fuzzy. Initially, I didn't even know I had just single-handedly fended off an entire team. It's not as if I'm that concerned: it makes trying not to remember easier for me. However, I was pretty shocked (pun not intended) at what happened at first. "Did some asshat blind me or something?" I thought I was blinded, or at least knocked out for the entire time. Sure enough, I realised that not only all the clones were gone but that some Pokemon within our team and their team were weakened substantially. It took me a while to realise that I had in fact did that.

"Arceus... good call." I thanked him, briefly as the other team was still on their last legs and only just retreating. Celes yelled out something about a mysterious someone who was able to weaken everyone at once, though I didn't know she was referring to me until much later. Things went downright creepy when Kamina went over to help up Anthony, and saying that everything that had just happened was in fact MY fault... it certainly was, but I didn't know it at the time.

Either way, I went off and followed Spruce's lead, going off to ensure that the rest wouldn't awaken from their daze. "Guys, just what did I do?" I asked as I took a stretch, spreading out my feathers and preparing myself for a fight. Heck, I felt a bit faster than usual too-

Wait, feathers? "Okay, more like what did YOU guys do? Tar and stick some feathers onto me?" I looked down and around myself, seeing a few feathers arranged in joints and sticking off at certain ends. I tried to shake them off and even tugged at one, but I could actually feel the damn things... well, I'd have to sort that out later. There was a fight to attend to.
