[color=orchid][h1][center]Sophia Danvers[/center][/h1][/color] [color=orchid][h3][center]Beside the wrecked ambulance[/center][/h3][/color] [@Heckno12] [@OtomostheCrazy] [@Iatos] The blast of water slowed the Rhyhorn down, but didn't stop it. It charged. Leaping out of the way, Staryu aimed another Water Gun at it. The rock Pokemon skidded in the mud created by the attack, thudding against a tree. Growling, it tried to shake off the dizziness. The other Rhyhorn bellowed, stampeding towards the water Pokemon. Staryu whirled away from its path in a blur. Unable to easily turn, the Rhyhorn crashed into the other one, who fainted. [color=orchid]"Heh... rocks for brains, literally,"[/color] Sophia said with an uneasy laugh, trying to mask her fear. [color=orchid]"Good work, Staryu."[/color] At the sight of a shape in the corner of her eye, sneaking up to her, she gasped and spun. One of the grunts. She had to act quickly... The psychic force she managed to send at him wasn't particularly strong, but was enough to knock him off-balance, sending him stumbling back and falling. Sophia nearly collapsed along with him, leaning against the side of the ambulance for a moment, before putting all the effort she could into standing straight and tall. Maybe it would deter the grunts if they thought she was a stronger psychic than she really was... [color=orchid]"Quick! Take her out first!"[/color] one of the men yelled. Before Sophia could react, the Magnemite was above her, crackling with electricity. The next moment, she heard a cry of "Goth-i-ta!" The Magnemite flew back, flung several feet away with Confusion. [color=orchid]"Gothita, be careful!"[/color] Sophia yelled. The Magnemite turned its attention on Gothita, zooming closer even in its weakened state - but didn't get to attack. A jet of water slammed into it. [color=orchid]"Staryu!"[/color] Sophia didn't want to think what would happen if Staryu, a Water type, got hit with Thunderbolt from a high-level Magnemite... In an instant, Purrloin was beside Staryu, standing on her hind legs, a ball of light forming between her front paws. Water shot out from the light. Sophia watched in awe. That had to be Assist... The Magnemite bobbed in the air, sparking, looking close to fainting. Normally, Sophia would have found the irony of a cat using a water move hilarious, but there was nothing funny about this situation. Beside her, Wooper was flinging mud around with more and more intensity, protecting Rheese. [color=orchid]"Come on,"[/color] she called to her Pokemon, staggering over to Wooper, falling to her hands and knees in the dirt behind the flurry of mud. All three Pokemon stood close by her. Mud Sport would provide some protection from the Magnemite, but the danger was far from gone. There was a flash of light. In the place of Kero's Eevee stood an Espeon, who threw one of the grunts against the still-conscious Rhyhorn with a psychic attack. Sophia had no idea how Kero had gotten his Pokemon to evolve so quickly, but maybe, just maybe, they had a chance...
