Apparently, he had woken up only recently.. while she had been awake for allmost a week now.. all alone and trying to figure out what was going on by herself. This was why.. she'd been so intrigued by the others who looked like her. Why she still was intrigued by them. [color=ed1c24]"Nice swords."[/color] she commented, eyes drifting to the swords at his side. Pallet town. The name resounded in Xiphias, sounding so very familiar... yet she knew she'd never heard it before. She flicked her ears as the Doublade spoke to her, offering her to join him if she wanted. Actually.. considering she had nearly killed one of their members it would probably be best if she did take up the rear. She still wasn't entirely certain how to use her powers yet.. and being further away from everyone meant that she could maybe have time to figure it out. Though.. maybe with her illusions a better strategy would be to be the scout for the group.. she didn't really feel like showing everyone here what she could do. However, she didn't say a word to Twix, letting him do as he pleased. She could just practice using Night Daze in the back where she could be careful not to hit anyone.. maybe learn to actually aim the move. The idea of partners.. was not something Xiphias wanted. She was sure she was supposed to be a part of a pack.. but she was also sure that she was supposed to be on her own. It was the strangest feeling of contrasting emotions. Xiphias' scowled she surveyed the Ampharos who woke up. [color=ed1c24]"I did not mean to hit you."[/color] She apologized hastily. Her ears flicked uncomfortably and she moved to the back of the line, walking over to Stahl, not waiting for a response. She would just 'partner' with him. His swords were intriguing.. and she wondered for a moment if she could copy them. The world distorted around her as she focused, an illusionary copy of one of his swords glittering in her hands. Of course, it was just an illusion, so when she tried to use it, it just phased through the tree she'd swung it at and vanished into nothingness. Her illusions were so useless sometimes. Xiphias simply stared at the back of Stahl's head, admiring his blonde hair. [color=ed1c24]"Stahl."[/color] she stated, ears flicking uncomfortably as she stared at him. [color=ed1c24]"If we are working together.. i must warn you... my attack move.. is a bit erratic."[/color] She didn't want to go into too much detail about what had just happened, so she kept her words short and cryptic. [color=ed1c24]"Just.. be careful to watch out while i try and get control of it. It's a dark type move which could do a lot of damage to a pokemon of your type."[/color] She looked increasingly uncomfortable as she spoke, the guilt of knocking out the poor Ampharos was getting to her.
