Vuduin tilted his head slightly to the side. Still screaming, but there was a note of something different in it. One he was rather familiar with at this point, fear. He floated out of the... float and landed on the ground, walking with long strides to see what the commotion was about. Surely the other avatars hadn't gone overboard trying to one up each other. Shade meanwhile was quite distressed by the turn of events and quickly retreated back to Vuduin's float, seeing the robed man and hiding inside his clothes. In a few minutes he could see the cause of the trouble. A group of trainers in white had released several Pokemon, their intent obvious from the smoldering wreck of the porygon float. They had quite a few pokemon with them, far too many to trouble with. However such troublemakers did need to be dealt with. Already the other avatars were beginning to attack. Tantalus had, oh my, impaled a Golem with that antique spear he carried. An avatar he hadn't seen before began launching an attack with her pokemon at them. Turning his gaze away, Vuduin decided it would be best to deal with the women near the back to avoid drawing the attention of the others. Vuduin quietly slipped through the road, unable to see anything for the moment in the solid rock, but he simply kept track the women's position in his head.

Several seconds later Vuduin rose from the ground, doubtless in quite a surprisingly and slightly intimidating fashion, given the flowing robes, intense stare of his dark eyes, contrasted by the white hair and the Gastly that hovered next to him. With a gesture Shade stared at the Pokemon guarding the women, its eyes gleamed with a strange light and the pokemon guarding her became woozy. With the combination of Shade's hypnosis and Vuduin's own will exerted it feel asleep with ease. Vuduin then tried what would doubtless prove to be pointless, [b]"Now, now, surely we don't need to get violent. Just play nice and we can get this all sorted out hmk?"[/b] his dark eyes bore into her own, the same feelings of lethargy he'd induced into her pokemon being applied to her. Shade made sure sleeping beauty didn't wake up. Vuduin hoped she would be reasonable, though if she was part of whatever this group he doubted it. Still, he'd have to be heartless not to give the women a chance.
