Pharros [A Super Chill Pokemon RP Reboot]

Shizuka teleported back into the forest right where her journal was. Dusting off the dirt from it she was going to go back to the village when she noticed Shani and Iron run into the forest. "Now where are they going?" Masa looked up and noticed the burn marks on the trees. "It appears that they are following the ursarings. They must have captured some sort of fire pokemon, who left behind burn marks. Shall we go investigate?" Nodding her head Shizuka followed the burn marks to a cliff. Her telepathy was picking up some errant thoughts, and looking around she found some obvious trails that someone was here recently. Four legs, small creature, weighs quite a bit. Like a certain aron. "They must have gone down this cliff. I see a cave entrance not too far away. We should proceed with caution Shizuka." Huffing Shizuka took Masa out of her sheath and slid down to the cave. "Of course. Steel yourself Masamune. I suspect that we will run into trouble."

Shizuka and Masa crept into the cave quietly, with Shizuka using her telepathy to make sure nothing gets the jump on them. She was ready to use use a protective psychic barrier while Masa was ready to start slashing. Thy felt a tremor going through the ground, and assumed that some pokemon must have used a powerful ground-type move. they ran quickly and saw Iron and Shani fighting three Ursarings. "Stupid little kids! They're in way over their heads!" Shizuka said under her breath. She saw one of the Ursarings about to land a hammer arm right onto Iron, which Shizuka knew would do some serious damage to him. Fortunately she and Masa were in sync.

Before the ursaring would land his attack Shizuka teleported right in front of Iron, and Masa had detected the attack in time to parry the blow away from the aron. "You two get the other ursarings! Me and masa will take care of this one!"

Smitten Kitten turned to see some blond cowgirl aiming her gun at the cat girl. This girl was called Corpse Collector, but then the oddest thing happened. Her name suddenly vanished. Was it some sort of Avatar Ability? She does seem to be the assassin type. Smitten Kitten started to edge away from the gun barrel, hoping that Corpse Collector was going to leave her alone when a random girl named Flan arrived. She seemed to be a friend of Corpse Collector and started talking to her before turning her attention onto Smitten Kitten. Unsurprisingly she was petted by Flan who mistook her as a NPC, but even after she figured out Smitten Kitten was a player character she continued to pet it. It felt... Nice. "Mew..."

Things started getting crazy pretty fast when another player arrived who seemed to know Flan. Or rather, fell on top of Flan. Smitten Kitten didn't know if he was trying to attack Flan or was just that klutzy. Then she received a message from someone named "Arms Slave", who seemed to be trying to threaten her. It scared Smitten Kitten because up until recently she's never played Deep Ground before. How does this person know her and why did he send her this message? Just how many people knew she was here? Smitten Kitten knew she couldn't stay around forever. She peeked behind and noticed the Black King had vanished, either getting close to kill them all or running to fight more outlaws. Smitten Kitten couldn't lose her now!

While everyone was distracted Smitten Kitten jumped off the side of the building, using her claws to slow her decent so she could land safely on the streets below. While she wasn't as fast as some characters Smitten Kitten was no slow poke, and could keep up with the Black King well enough to keep Moon Rider in sight. As long as she didn't take too many turns Smitten Kitten was able to follow. And once she was certain she had lost the other players who was with her, Smitten Kitten also parkoured her way back onto the roof tops. "Where are you going?"

With class underway Ebon put his scroll away and took out his notebook. Math wasn't a hard subject for him, just tedious. A lot of his training during his time as a hunter-in-training was actually basic education like this, so he wasn't completely ignorant of the stuff. He quietly got to work but entertained himself by flying more airplanes, using his telekinesis to manipulate them without lifting a finger. And instead of just one, he had four paper airplanes flying around. But that wasn't the only thing about the airplanes: Using his telepathy he also put in the random thoughts of everyone around him, trying to spread a bit of baseless gossip. His planes took flight filled with thoughts. Their main objective however was to maintain air superiority, and thus whenever Emmy would send one of her airplanes out, or when someone else does, Ebon's own would swoop down and try to knock them out of the air.

All the while Ebon tried to work on the math problems.

Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Today was a relaxing day. After the mess that was the Caravan Mission Meirin actually enjoyed the monotony of classes. It gave some semblance of normalcy. Meirin's day started after getting washed and freshened up, where she'd meet with Ssarak to train. Sometimes they'd have others over, like Annabeth or Leith. Meirin would then head to class and learn new forms or practice old ones. This week they covered more on Hydromancy and Meirin learned some complex dances that made the water around her rise and move around her like a whirlpool. The tricky part however was to make it look "beautiful". It wasn't hard to just swing around the water, but she needed to control the water. Make it move with grace and fluidly, not just whipped around like a child's toy. It was much harder then it looked and Meirin could only make it work if she did it slowly. Still it was progress. Eventually she'll learn what this spell actually does.

After her training with Ssarak today Meirin considered how to spend the rest of her day. Classes were canceled because of the feast. She actually wanted to take this time to talk to some others aside from Ssarak, though she does intend to meet up with him later tonight. She just wanted to hang out with her other friends. As she was getting her things put away a golen sent by Uicle told her she needed to talk to the Djarkel Diplomats, using Lucilia if she needed to. This brought a disinterested look from Meirin.

The monks had to pay tribute to the barons of course, even if they did live fairly isolated in the mountains. They didn't involve themselves in politics, and simply provided protection for travelers who happened to find them. And while Meirin has seen their injustice and felt that things needed to be changed, she knew that the baronies in Djarkel are cutthroat. And not just because they were quick to hire assassins. That mess they called "Bureaucracy" can do more damage for people then armies can. That bureaucracy brings the armies too. Meirin had little interest in dealing with that monster, but she supposed that she could at least ask how Djarkel has been in recent events. Despite their flaws Djarkel was still her home country. She knew that if they could simply stop trying to compete with themselves, they could be a good place for people to live.

Of course another issue would be trying to talk to them. Even if she did tell them she was a monk from Djarkel, she wasn't sure how they'd react. Most people don't mind the monks, but she knew some city folk thought less of her because she was "A mountain savage" in their own mind. And if Meirin didn't have the self-control she might have proved how savage she was. She hoped that they wouldn't be condescending to her just because she doesn't come from a noble family or a big city. And there was Lucilia. Meirin was still a bit angry over what she did with Lyn, but she's been punished by the counsel of the college. Meirin has largely let go of that anger now, but she still is wary of more of her treachery. She may have been forgiven, but Meirin wasn't about to forget what she did.

With nothing else to do Meirin headed towards the dinning hall. It seemed like the easiest place to find the diplomats or to start looking for them. While she was there she noticed that there were many people here: Ssarak was talking with some Eysire, no doubt from the Scortched Lands. Khan was talking to Lucilia who was being escorted by Grey. Uicle seemed to be talking to an old man... Meirin was curious. She's never seen him before. She also didn't see anyone who she'd recognized as a representative from Djarkel. And since she didn't want to bother Lucilia or Khan Meirin went over to Uicle and the other older gentleman. "Hello Uicle. I got your message, and I can't seem to find those diplomats... Oh! Shoot, I forgot my manners. Hello, my name is Meirin Kurenai." Meirin looked towards the old man and bowed her head towards him. She wasn't sure who he was or how he greets from wherever he came from, so bowing seemed to be the best thing for her to do.

Soon another paper airplane, made of red paper, flew by and struck Emmy's airplane. It than began to fly around and dominate the airspace, zipping around back and forth, diving down and narrowly avoiding crashing only for it to rise up at the last second. And despite all it's tricky maneuvers it never once landed.

Mean while Ebon was casually reclining in his seat playing with his SCROLL, surfing the web and such. He didn't pay attention to the drama around the room, since none of it involved him or his team. He found a video which made him chuckle. "Heh... Bakaro..."

I'm still here by the way. I'm just been suffering from writer's block. I guess I'm too late for the combat class though.

Welcome, Smitten Kitten

---

Smitten Kitten was back right where she was, minus a vehicle, Dissolutions, or the other players. She wasted no time wondering around and immediately set off to the Black City. While there was a bit of a mishap yesterday, she was still determined to take out the black king. She just needed to get there first. Being a rogue Smitten Kitten knew instinctively that in a straight up fight she wouldn't do well. Avoiding the enemy, striking them when they're weak and not fighting them when they're strong, that's the only way she could survive. During her trip to the Black City she only fought one Dissolution using this hit-and-run tactic: as soon as she saw it she snuck up on it, got the drop on it, then ran away. Of course it gave chase, but Smitten Kitten made sure to hide whenever she knew she couldn't run to cover. And when the Dissolution eventually lost aggro and left, but was still in Smitten Kitten's way, she attacked it again before it knew where she was. Then she ran. She did this all the way to the black city.

At the Black City she could hear the death cries of various players. She gulped down some worry. She heard that the Ebony Strykers were killing Outlaws... She would have to refrain from using her Outlaw declaration until she could find a good time to attack the black king alone. That meant other Outlaws would be Smitten Kitten's enemies. But she was a rogue, and sneaking around was one of her best, if only, notable skills. Smitten Kitten took to the roof tops, climbing the walls with little difficulties and jumping across the gaps with ease. She moved fast, but when she heard fighting she'd lay low and try to listen to what was going on. She would try to determine how the fight was going just by sound: Who many were fighting, how they fought, who was getting hurt the most. She didn't interfere and stayed as far away as she could, because there was only one person Smitten Kitten wanted to take down. And soon she would have her chance.

"Heeeeeey! Moon Rider! How's it going, queenie?!

Stopping for a moment Smitten Kitten ducked behind a wall and looked towards the sound of the voice. There she saw two players. One that looked like a rogue and another a mage. The mage called the rogue "Queenie" as well as Moon Rider. She was the leader of the Ebony Strykers. "Now's my chance!" Smitten Kitten took out her Outlaw Declaration, getting ready to activate it. She waited for the mage to leave though, so she could get the drop on Moon Rider. Once she was alone, Smitten Kitten would go all out on her.

I'm surprised Uicle didn't read the report on the Caravan Mission.
