"Sup, call me Frankie." He responded calmly, understanding that this was certainly a weird looking situation.[/quote] Well, he seemed calm enough about the situation. Not that it was anything but an odd one to say the least. But why had he been poking her with a stick though? Really? Then again perhaps- [quote=The Walking Disaster & Scare Victim]The girl in question emits a small groan from the dirt, "Ouugh... My head hurts... Why do I always trip..." she mutters as she was slowly helped off the ground, her eyes blurry as she recovered from the tumble she had took, looking at the gathered group of people before glancing at Clarissa, "Uh... Sorry, where- Oh, right! Thanks, yeah, I'm f-" [/quote] Ah! The psychic let out a small sigh of relief. Clarissa was glad the girl seemed to have enough of her senses about her, for the time being, but at the same time the psychic felt something from her powers...as if it was moving closer to them? A presence that is. Well that seemed odd enough. A similar feeling came from the old ruins she could see afar, but right here with them? Maybe- [quote=The Frightening And Most Tumpy One Of Them All][color=indigo][h1]TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/h1][/color][/quote] It took her but glancing up at the right moment (as old instincts admittedly kicked in)for the mischevious Phantump to appear, Amelia's it would seem, out of nowhere before shouting at the top of its little ethereal lungs in the once dirt-bound girl's ear. Consequently the shout would ring in the unfortunate psychic's ears as well, even as her grip on Vivian suddenly grew much tighter at the sudden attempt by the poor startled girl to rip herself free of her hands. It was, however, enough to yank the psychic forward with Vivian for a moment, at least before the grip she had on the other girl was ultimately broken (as it would be), and once detached from Vivian cause the former Orre girl to trip in turn over one of Vivian's feet as the other girl herself fell back over the once again comically-placed Wooper. And then suddenly a number of things seemed to happen all at once to boot. As two of Vivian's Pokemon erupted out of their Pokeballs to defend their trainer, one more proactively than the other, Clarissa hurtled into the ground with all the weight of her things on her back to help carry her. As the sudden new Scraggy entering the fray moved to block Atlas' punch, before the re-downed girl recalled him back again in kind, Sir Lopsalot would attempt to move into place to catch his falling trainer without a second thought...but it was too late. As her body somewhat twisted sideways due to the weight of her things on her back, the same weight that made stopping herself after Vivian broke free a bit less feasible than she'd have liked, the psychic would promptly hit the ground with a decently loud enough 'thud' as her little Buneary barely avoided getting turned into a small but adorable pancake. In turn, two of Clarissa's Pokeballs would open on their own as two Pokemon shimmered into existence about her while Sir Lopsalot finished running over to where her head now lied after she'd ultimately fallen down on her left side. The first was something that looked like a literal sentient walking trashbag, but overall was just a little guy, a smaller fella' of a Pokemon who seemed to panic just a touch at the situation while also eyeing the Phantump back while his two little fists were held up as if he was...willing to fight despite himself? Huh. Meanwhile, the second Pokemon that emerged looked like a peculiar orange Igglybuff with feathers tinted with ember-like colors on its head instead of the trademark 'puff' of their Kantonian cousins. He would appear standing on the side of the downed Clarissa's backpack suitcase in kind, looking down to the side at her, at the downed Vivian, and then let out a tiny giggle before looking back up at the Phantump as if it could barely contain its amusement and laughter. "Bffff...Bu...BUFF! Buff....iggly iggly iggly. Buff." It eventually let out a notable laugh of its own at the scene, before seeming to make a critique to it in whatever language Pokemon species had been made to speak in for Arceus' sake. It was enough, however, to get Sir Lopsalot to look at him and put his tiny hands on his hips. Then as the two of them began to chat, the little walking trash bag with arms would also chirp in. "Bun! Bun bun!" "Buff buff. Iggly!" "Bish? Trub trub trub trub trub. Bish bish." "Buff? Buff buff, iggly." "Bun." "Trub!" "Buuuuuufffff....buff." Whatever conversation had just gone down, the odd Igglybuff would glance back at the psychic's face for a few silent moments before he let out his own little sigh of exasperation and Sir Lopsalot crossed his arms. The Igglybuff would then get down from Clarissa, albeit not before sticking his tongue out at Sir Lopsalot for what it was worth, and try to help the other two try to sit Clarissa back up at the very least. Or...well, they were [i][b]trying[/b][/i] to do so as best as they could, bless their little hearts, at the very least. [color=violet]"Hmmpidhsthmm...."[/color] A small murmuring of incomprehensible grumbling barely came from Clarissa's lips as she let her Pokemon try to help her sit up again, albeit she was slow to frankly join them as she eventually would try to sit up again (albeit slowly enough after the impact). Wasn't her first fall, and it surely wasn't going to be her last either, in the span of her lifetime. But in her mind, at least, she'd managed to hold back an outburst from her powers or voice alike at the last second, albeit that had come at the cost of not paying enough attention to catching herself in the fall. Er, not that the sudden sideways turn of her fall had made it very viable either to catch herself, but it is what it was in any case. Yet the soreness emanating from the side of her head, left hip, and left arm for the moment being anyways as far as she could tell were benign enough. This, however, came second...even as her eyes looked at her right ankle and a small sigh of actual relief escaped as it didn't seemed to feel or be twisted as she rolled her right foot a little to check it out.

It was funny, after an intense battle the only thing that was left was the peaceful sound of silence. As they went to pick up their Pokeballs, there was something that they had not noticed that under any other circumstances they should have been aware of as soon as they entered this chamber were not for the fact that they were on a rescue mission: there was a mural of the region of Evig painted on one of the walls though it was incomplete, the entire southern region and parts the western landmass were simply not there There were several things odd about it, but what was odd were the symbols on them: a flower near Florasong, a sundial near Starbor, and a crown in the Jormun Trench. Yes, many things to ponder about...[/quote] [*]Video of Clarissa, Nils, the punk kid, and Dudley the Detective leaving the Pokemon Den in Hidden Cavern and leaving back to the Grand Glory Sewers, ending on a shot of the hole gown down from the sewers to the Hidden Cavern. [*][hider=Clarissa's First Video Of The Hidden Cavern] [quote][center][img]https://i.pinimg.com/736x/b2/89/b2/b289b2fdb48046563f15c04cf37cacf0.jpg[/img][/center] An ethereal glow hung in air literally lighting the enclosed space of red rock with a blueish hue. There was an energy about it, something that resonated through the air though what it was was hard to say. It was a vast network of tunnels, an eerily quiet space where even the slightest sound bounced off the walls. There was no doubt that this place had not been touched by human hands, if it was even known by the inhabitants of the city above. A fragment of another time from long ago, isolated and forgotten. However, those who found themselves in this strange network of tunnels would quickly find that they were not alone. As expected of a place located deep underground, there were a litany of Pokemon that made their homes here. Armored little creatures scuttled around, looking for iron ore and other bits of metallic minerals they can get their mouths on.[/quote] Going for her Rotom Phone, Clarissa would have it film the appearaance of the place and the Pokemon she could see there, including a proper look back at the tunnel that had led her there. Then she had the camera turn to herself for a moment, then, speaking clearly for the camera and gesturing to the lighting and features. [color=violet]"This cave system seems to sit underneath the Grand Glory Sewers, which might explain the presence of Aron down here eating at the pipework in the sewers above. I came down here through a tunnel the Pokemon here dug up at an angle into the sewer system, with them seeking more food I believe, while seeking whatever Pokemon is making the crying noise people have heard down here before. I don't know how far the tunnels go, or if there are more connections to the sewers, but....this place is...beautiful, I believe, in its own way."[/color] Untouched by human hands, thriving with life of its own, and yet part of her felt enthralled to simply look about the underground cavern of sorts. Still, before she ended the video, Clarissa looked back at the camera of her Rotom Phone again. [color=violet]"And Nils, if you are watching this, I'm sending this to let you know it's seeminglly safe to come down as well if you wish. But we might need to eventually go back for some potions and other supplies if this place goes deep enough. I'm heading deeper in to explore in the meantime. I'll try to keep in touch."[/color] [/hider] [*] [/list] [/hider] [/hider]
