Pokemon: Dream

The battle was over pretty quickly from that point. "Yea, that's right. Go tell her that you failed your job. I'm sure she'll be really happy with you!" Camila yelled after the retreating men. Hmph. She knew the Casino was all sorts of bad, but this was a step beyond. However irritated she was, her attention soon fell on Snow, having taken quite a beating. "Hey there, girl. Good work." She reached into her bag and retrieved one of the potions the Professor had provided her with. She applied the healing item to her Pokemon before pocketing the used up item and grabbing the Vulpix's Pokeball, returning the Pokemon to it's resting spot. "You just get a good rest for now." The woman mentioned with a smile. Vulpix, exhausted, didn't complain much.

With that done, the assistant turned to Clara. "Well, nice to meet you... I suppose. Clara, Sable and our little hero, Koko. Situation nonwithstanding." Camila said with a smile to the small Pokemon. "So, you couldn't have just come and got her in the first place?" She asked Clara, crossing her arms. The assistant supposed that the woman just wanted her as a distraction so she could sneak about and get the Pokemon to safety? Perhaps that's what she would try to convince herself to keep from thinking ill of the woman in front of her. "Well, regardless. All's well that ends well. Though, Snow's a little worse for wear. Nothing a little nap and a little treatment won't fix at least."

The assistant looked like something had just dawned on her. "Oh, but where are my manners. Camila Willow and my Vulpix Snow." The woman said, motioning to the Pokeball the fox Pokemon was resting in. "One of the assistants to Professor Camphor, currently on field work one might say." Camila mentioned, still almost wondering if she was being exiled from the lab for some undiscernible reason. "I just started out not too long ago and I run into such nonsense. Perhaps I'll have to reconsider having quite strong Pokemon." The woman mentioned, seeming disappointed that her journey that should be a bit relaxing ended up seeming like it would not be quite so easy.

Camila shook the thought from her head and turned to Clara and Sable with a smile. "So, what brings you two out here? Shutting down a Pokemon caging group or just here for a ride and you just so happen to run into one?" She asked, not sounding accusatory or anything but with genuine curiosity.

"Snow!" Camila would exclaim as the Pokemon would roll into a nearby puddle. "Are you alright?" She asked as the Vulpix defiantly stood, though visibly weak. She wouldn't be able to go on much longer with this fight, though her little fox had done quite well for itself in a one versus three fight. If only she could have hit them all at the same time, perhaps it wouldn't have mattered too much. For now, she would have to continue with the fight. The one thug mentioned something about her having another Pokemon which, she did technically have but it too was unable to fight at the moment. A frown appeared on her face before she almost calling a move for Snow when something unexpected happened. The very ground started to rumble and a reptile Pokemon burst from the ground, grabbing hold of the weakened Vullaby before using a critical Crunch on it before throwing it down. This... Was on her side, right?

Her thought was confirmed when the woman from much earlier had appeared, freeing those Pokemon from the cage. She called her cutie and asked her to finish up the fight with the Kokorok which.... She assumed were the woman's. "Cutie? Me?" Her frown changed to something akin to a puzzled confusion. "I'm going to just... Ignore that." She mentioned, focusing on the battle once again. "Alright, Snow, lets help out the Kokorok. Let's get that Starley out of the fight with Powder Snow! Kokorok, glad to have you here with us." Camila said, sounding relieved.

The woman she was trying to helps seemed... Nonchalant about all of this, really. Tossing her hands in her pockets before moving behind her and tossing her a thumbs up. Camila wasn't sure about the woman and she had to take a fight for her. She better get a big thank you for this later from her and her motorcycle riding friend.

Onto the battle, the Vullaby seemed to have something wrong with it. It didn't seem to be able to use leer for some reason. Though, gust was something that seemed to be usable. How odd. "Snow, try to dodge and attack with Powder snow. If we can knock out one, then we might have a chance. Focus on the birds!" Quick attack would not be something easy to dodge so Snow might have to take a bunch of hits by the end of this. Damn. They might have to head back to the city early. That would be fine but she was hoping to be getting to the next place she could.

This situation was interesting at this point. A Pokemon battle? Well, she wasn't sure what she should expect from a bunch of thugs. At least they didn't resort to trying to punch her or something. She cleared her throat and looked at the mute woman next to her. "Let's not provoke them any more if we can help it." She asked before looking over toward the thugs. "Anyhow, if this is how we're doing it. So be it." The Pidgey she had just caught was... Well, still probably not up for battle. "I hate to put you on the spot Snow, but looks like you're the only one that can fight."

Snow seemed a small bit hesitant knowing it was up against three Pokemon at once though. "It's okay, you have the type advantage for the most part here." And, if Powder Snow was aimed properly, it could hit all three opponents. Snow seemed to pump itself up a small bit. Luckily, it didn't have the fairy typing quite yet so the Shroodle didn't have a type advantage at this point. "Powder Snow!" She commanded. Those men sent out their Pokemon already so they were ready right? "Focus on the flying types first!" She called to her Pokemon. They were outnumbered as it were, she needed to preemptive attack.

After the Pidgey started to fall over, Camila threw the Pokeball she had waiting. "Gotcha!" She exclaimed as the ball flew through the air and smacked against the bird's shoulder. It then looked to ricochet off before turning back towards it and firing a light at the Pidgey before capturing it. The ball fell to the ground and started to wiggle a few times before clicking. "We did it, Snow~!" She happily exclaimed again, lifting the small fox Pokemon up. It happily yipped in reply as it allowed her trainer to carry it.

Walking over to the Pokeball, Camila picked it up and put it on her belt before walking over to the one she had missed earlier and pocketing it. "Well, this is a fairly common start for most Pokemon trainers I suppose. Not that I'm really one of course." She mentioned, setting Snow down again. "Well, we should be finding this mute woman."

With that, the continued. They saw a Deerling and a Bunneary but finding this woman was the first thing in her mind at the moment. The two just kept walking for now and soon, they came upon... Something. A bunch of guys with Pokemon in cages and... A woman? "Ah. Big. I fully understand now." The assistant mentioned looking at this woman. If the description wasn't enough, the lack of reply the woman gave the rest away. She walked up to the situation with a frown. "And what would a bunch of thugs from the Casino want with a bunch of caged Pokemon? Prizes for the people that can just pay up while you rob the rest of them?" She asked, disliking what she saw in front of her. "It's also not nice to gang up on a lady, you know?" She added.

"Keep at it, Eliz." Katherine mentioned, as she continued her work trying to restrain the demon with her chains. "I'll make you like this kind of play Mama Demon." The firbolg teased as she tried wrapping the creature up again. Her dolls moved in a bit closer and Katherine channeled a bit of magic through their weapons and they used the barrels of their guns as makeshift fire hoses to try and keep the fire out with Eliz, occasionally splashing the possessed woman with the water. "Maybe she'll run out of power if we keep this up." Katherine said, putting on her best show of not seeming tired. "How long do you think she can keep this up?" Katherine asked the small demon with them.

Camila thought she'd have that in one shot like that. Well, she was a bit rusty on catching Pokemon so perhaps that was a factor. "Snow! Dodge and use Powder Snow again!" The assistant commanded. Hopefully this would end quickly enough. She wanted to get on the road to finding that woman's friend. "Let's make this quick, Snow." She mentioned, grabbing another of the Pokeballs and ready to throw it when the Pidgey was hit.

Camila kept her eyes out as she traversed the forest. It was a large forest and the woman's friend could be just about anywhere. Whoever she was didn't seem so keen on giving out any names for herself or her friend. Well, regardless, the forest of Route 1 seemed mostly peaceful. There were fishermen out and about, trying to get a catch or two. A couple of them were friendly enough and gave her a wave, which she more than happily waved back. Still, she hadn't seen the woman she was looking for yet. A mute woman with red hair and "big". She wasn't quite sure she wanted to broach that subject much.

On the way, as she passed by a bush, she happened to see a Pidgey off the road a bit. It was a cute little thing and a fairly common sight in the area. Still, if she was going to begin traveling and working much like a trainer did, perhaps it wasn't a bad idea to have a few Pokemon along the road with her. Especially since she didn't exactly ask if anyone wanted to join her... It was going to be a fairly lonely road without a few friends with her. With a smile, she started to sneak around a bit. Snow seemed to get the message as well and sneakily followed her and the two crept closer to the bird Pokemon.

Once they were a good distance closer, "Snow, use Powder Snow!" She exclaimed, commanding her Vulpix to hit the bird with the super-effect Ice-type move. The goal, of course, was to catch the Pidgey off guard, hit it with a super effective move and then throw the Pokeball at the weakened Pokemon before it had a chance to respond. "Here we go!" After the attack hit, she would throw one of her Pokeballs out to try and catch the Tiny Bird Pokemon. Hopefully, this would be a quick capture considering she had offered to help that woman find her friend.

As soon as Eliz distracted the demon, the dolls on reserve hopped into action. One blasted the idol with a low-powered magic shot that softly shot it at the other doll, waiting to catch it. The doll caught it and it pittered on it's feet catching it before hefting it adorably over it's head and running toward the back of the room. "Good." Katherine muttered to herself as she glanced back at the doll.

Now back forward to the speaking tiny demon. "Do you speak of 'Garlic Bread'? Easy. You shall have a belly full of it after we get back. Just promise not to eat any people." The firbolg said, now turning to Lyssa asking her for a spell to tie down the possessed mother. "Hmm? I suppose I could." She could craft a set of spiritual chains with her magic power. It wouldn't necessarily be difficult it might just take a small bit of time... But, well, that wouldn't be too annoying. Eliz had already locked the demon down for... Well, a short time at least. She started to focus her magic as she walked around a small bit. She just needed a small bit of a better angle of the demon as some blue magical chains started to wrap around her right arm.

Eliz was preventing the demon from destroying them with fire. A blessing they had such a woman with them. Well, with that happening... The chain on her arm launched forward, wrapping around the demon's neck first. After, it would quickly wrap around her arms, binding them to her torso, then her hands. From there they took her legs and moved them into quite the uncomfortable and unnatural position as the chains bound her legs to her arms. "Little cutie, think you can help me keep her restrained for a bit?" The firbolg asked the small demon helping them.

"Make a habit of bothering cute girls? Not really?" Camila questioned with Snow returning to her side. "Admittedly, you do seem a bit out of place here. Though, I'm not exactly one to say that really." The assistant looked at her outfit and thought about it. She just kinda left with little but her bag and it's contents, a Pokeball and her bank account. "Hmm. Perhaps I should find some more appropriate dress." She mentioned to herself before shaking her head and looking back to the woman in front of her.

It was then that she noticed the woman giving her a deadpan stare. Camila returned the stare with a bit of uncomfort. She wasn't sure how to approach this conversation exactly. That is, until the woman spoke up again. "I'm not exactly a trainer. Just an assistant to Professor Camphor in the city. It's been years since I've even had the idea of being a trainer, proper. Still, I don't mind helping if you need it." Camila would then look down at her Pokemon with a smile, "We can help the gal out, can't we Snow?" She asked her Pokemon that just gave an affirming yip in return.

"Umm, you say your partner is hard to miss, think you can give me a few details and I'll be on my way?" Camila asked, curious. "Oh, and point me in the direction you last saw her."
