[h3][color=fff79a]Current World Time: 5:00 - 5:30 P.M.[/color][/h3] [h3][color=0072bc]Rico and Lulu the Riolu Twins[/color] & Company[/h3][b][Lilac Meadow][/b] [@Ninian] [@Light Lord] [@Iatos] [@Polaris North] The twins listened to the group discussion. Celty and Zaru seemed to think being a decoy would work, however Devon and Milton were against that idea. Milton thought he could disguise himself as one of them, but Rico shook his head. [color=0072bc]"No way Milton, you can't see the big picture. Look around, this place isn't strung about like some shabby makeshift camp, they know what they're doing. That being said, they'd probably take notice of an odd Pokemon out pretty quickly. In fact, I bet they have guards all over this place right now, just watching it like a Braviary."[/color] Lulu kept looking through the bushes, trying to survey the area in intervals to avoid detection. [color=7ea7d8]"I think I see them, up in the trees. Spinarak and Joltik. About 4 of each. If we rush them, we might be able to take them out quick enough to grab Krissy and bolt!"[/color] She whispered. Rico solemnly nodded his head. [color=0072bc]"It's risky, but It's better than splitting up and keeping us limited on moves. I say we go for it, what about you guys?"[/color] He asked, looking over the group of Pokemon around him. [h3][color=aba000]Wild Webs Gang[/color][/h3][b][Lilac Meadow][/b] [@Iatos] Be it may that Ariados was the leader of the Wild Webs Gang, and he was possibly their strongest member. But, he had one flaw, his hearing would fail him from time to time. He caught bits and pieces of what the little kids had to say. After hearing them, the Ariados flashed red with anger. [i]"Leader of the Wild Webs Gang... perverted drunkard... not a mighty organization... return our friend... strike..."[/i] Out of what the small Shinx had said, that was all he had heard of it. [color=8dc73f]"So, I'm a perverted drunkard, eh? The Wild Webs aren't mighty? And you think a threat will get me to return that little girl we caught snooping around? No way! In fact... I think a few more captives will increase our chances out here. Truss 'em up boys!"[/color] The Spider Pokemon did as they were told. They were too scared of their boss to tell him what they had truly said, and did as they were told. They trussed up the young Pokemon and forced them to eat Sleep Seeds, making them easier to haul off. [color=fff200]"This is so morally wrong in so many ways... but it's the bosses orders, and you don't cross the boss."[/color] Said one of the Galvantula as the other three hauled off the intruders. [h3][color=9e0b0f]Attack Team[/color][/h3][b][Sky Tower][/b] [@Polaris North] [@floodtalon] Bisharp nodded, and waved forward. It seemed... clear... that wasn't right. [color=9e0b0f]"Keep on your guard, he could be anywhere up there. Let's move."[/color] The others nodded and followed the Bisharp up the final set of stairs. This would truly be their toughest, and potentially last battle. They all knew this, and they all went forward. [b][Sky Tower Summit][/b] It was abnormally quiet on the summit. There was no wind blowing, no clouds moving, nothing but silence. The team moved cautiously along the sides, taking every precaution. Then they heard it, the booming voice. [color=007236]"So, you did come back! I warned you, if you came back here you would experience pain like you've never felt before! And... you did not heed my warning, you monster!"[/color] Suddenly a form flew right over their heads at tremendous speed. It circled overhead, and soon it zoomed right down to the summit. [color=007236]"You have violated my sacred sanctum, for that, you shall pay dearly! Prepare!"[/color] The form was undoubtebly the Sky Dragon Rayquaza, and he was pissed to an extreme very few had pushed him to in the past. The rage was clear in his eyes, and suddenly he began to glow. [color=9e0b0f]"Whatever tricks you have, Rayquaza, they won't work on us! Everybody, get ready!"[/color] Said Bisharp, as the other Pokemon went scrambling into Battle Positions. [color=007236]"You truly are a fool to think this is some TRICK! Behold, the power of MEGA EVOLUTION!"[/color] Rayquaza shouted as he rose into the air, revealing it's menacing Mega Forme. [color=gray]"Mega... Mega Evolution? He didn't warn us about this!"[/color] Said Machamp, still not backing down from the challenge. [color=6ecff6]"This... just became much harder..."[/color] Said Beartic, growling at the dragon. [color=fdc68a]"What have we gotten ourselves into?!"[/color] Said Hippowdon, moving to his side and preparing to attack. [color=007236]"Prepare for the battle of your life, and the cause of your death!"[/color] Yelled Rayquaza as he flew up into the air. [h3][color=a187be]The Master[/color][/h3][b][Infinity Mountain Peak][/b] [@Iatos] The Master listened as the Tyranitar gave his grim tale, a tale that would have brought many to tears. His tear ducts had long sealed themselves, though. He felt a somewhat kindred spirit in this one. [color=a187be][i]"You're truly something special, such raw power, with no regards for the rules set by this... society. A kindred spirit to me, I believe. I too betrayed those who I believed to be my family, my friends. I watched them fall before me, before I was brought down by one whom I once called 'Brother'."[/i][/color] He let his psychic power flow around him, examining him further. [color=a187be][i]"So tell me, if there was no society as it is today, if the world had no laws, no rules, no governing power, how would that make you feel? Would you feel the same, would it feel odd to be breaking no rules? Would you then make your own rules the way you wanted things to be run?"[/i][/color] He asked, then shook his head. [i][color=a187be]"Never mind that, i'm babbling. As I said, if they fail in their mission, we will go in and finish the job. They would have at least tired the beast out. If they succeed, I may reveal the location of other Legendary Pokemon so you may see for yourself why defeating them is such a task. I see in your mind you've battled many strong Pokemon in the past, but you've never faced anything like an enraged Legendary Pokemon. It is something you cannot do alone, and I want you to see why."[/color][/i] [h3][color=004b80]Spirit the Lucario[/color][/h3][b][Valiant Village][/b] He had double checked, even triple checked, everything there was to check for the Village Festival. Everything was ready. Tomorrow many Pokemon would be journeying here to partake in the festivities the following day. It would be interesting to see who would arrive, so many familiar faces most likely, with some new ones he'd bet... suddenly he felt a nudge, he turned and found it was Ox the Gogoat, one of his pretty much right hand Pokemon along with Razor. [color=004b80]"Ox, do you need something... you look worried..."[/color] The Gogoat turned to his Treasure Bag and pulled out a flyer with his mouth, handing it to Spirit. It was an Outlaw Notice for the surrounding area. [color=004b80]"How long ago were they seen?"[/color] The Grass Type looked up at the slowly setting sun. [color=1a7b30]"About seven hours ago, they were seen in the Rapid Ravines just south of here, that's too close for my liking, Guildmaster."[/color] Spirit looked at the paper again, and out towards Lilac Meadow. [color=004b80]"It couldn't be... Omen, protect them with your life..."[/color] He mumbled. [h3][color=a36209]Razor the Excadrill[/color][/h3][b][Valiant Village - Spirit's Guild][/b] [@Banana] Razor was a bit caught off guard by the small Ice Type's request. [color=a36209]"Well... the thing is, I'm not part of a team anymore. I work strictly for the Guild, kind of the Guildmaster's Right Hand Pokemon, along with Ox that is."[/color] He crossed his arms thinking. [color=a36209]"If the Guildmaster DOES accept you though, there are quite a few younger Pokemon who are close to graduating to full work here at the Guild that would probably love to be on a team with you."[/color] Razor told a half truth there, yes it was true that Rico, Lulu, Milton, and Zaru were close to gaining full Guildship, but they'd never even met this floating Ice Cream Cone, who knows how they'd react to him... He noticed a glimmer of light floating up from the Sawk and Throh Dojo just down the street, it was strange. It was like an orb. He didn't pay much attention to it, he had some Guild matters to attend to.
