Rise of the Shadows!

[Lupis]

Summer looked at Ghost sympathetically.
"This is what we fight to stop... These horrible choices. This is why I fight the non-infected, because they do this to my sisters and brothers. Don't worry, Ghost. We'll find a way to reunite with her, without being forced to hurt her. She ran, sister, so she must still know what the Dusk stand for... She isn't as blinded as some of the others."
She sat down beside Ghost, exhausted as well.
"We should rest for now. That last fight was draining, to say the least."

[rubybeam]

Somna looked at his honey soaked apws should he evolve? he was useless about as useless as a stick for all he knew...with the expection of his ability he was utterley useless even dusk wouldn't find a job for him......

[Kamalia]

Molly gave a slight nod, and stood up. She hovered so not to jostle the Raichu. The two left for the others.
---
Tira rocked back and forth nervously. "Is there anything that helps make them shut up? They're really terrible... screaming at me to hurt everyone in our group that isn't cursed. Molly and Olivia especially. Prolly cause I know them the best."
"Even try to give me a nibble and I will smack you to Isshu." Olivia grunted. Tira let out a chuckle in spite of herself.
---
"Nope, I'm not a Dusk. Not a scratch on me." Julius stood up on his hind legs, showing his body to prove it. "I guess I was either too small or too fast for them to bother with me." He gave a tiny shrug. "Do you know where those nice Pokémon you were traveling with are?"

[Magnakilro]

Sparky slid a paw on his throat, looking at the blood, "I deserved this..." he muttered to himself.

[Senna-Umbreon]

"I hope you're right... Sol's been my friend for a long time.... Or at least.. I've been her friend for a long time... I'd hate to have to hurt her too much..." Ghost sighed again, "I.. I don't know what to do anymore... I want to stay with my kin... But.. I just don't want to fight Solara.. And now that she's cured... Argh!" She dug her claws into the ground, "I'm so confused..."

[Kamalia]

"Is that still not completely healed up?" The Gardevoir frowned. "At least you're not choking on your own blood anymore."

Molly used Wish!
"That should fix you up." She gave a satisfied nod. "Also... we're back." She set him on the ground. "Go ahead when you're ready."

[Magnakilro]

Sparky looked at Jingle, tears flowing from his eyes,"J-Jingle...."

[Azunara]

Speck tried to think.

"They think you're useless." Speck scowled at the voice, and replied to it darkly in her head, "Hey, Voices. I have a joke for you." When they didn't reply, she carried on, "Did you hear the one about the diglett? Nevermind...You probably wouldn't DIG it!"

If the Voices could facepalm, Speck was sure they would do so. But at least they shut up. Speck then turned her attention to Julius, grinning. "If I remember right, that way." She said, leading.

---

Solara thought. "Don't think about scary things or sad things. Think about happy things, like the people you love and who care for you." She suggested.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Jingle looked up, "... S-Sparky?"

[Lupis]

Summer brushed Ghost's nose with her tail.
"You don't need to fight her. If worst comes to worst and she must fight one of us, I will keep her attention. I hope it will not come to that, though. She was a good sister until they took her from me. I will have her back. We will deliver her from the suffering she, and you, now face. You won't have to choose between friend and family, they will be one, unified."

[Magnakilro]

The tears flowed heavily from him now as he approached her slowly, and silently.

[Kamalia]

Tira nodded at Solara with a smile. "Happy thoughts. Got i-Sparky?!" She shrank back slightly.
"It's okay, Tira. He's better now." Molly crouched beside the Flygon, rubbing her neck reassuringly. The Flygon lowered her head and fearfully watched the Raichu anyway.
---
Julius wasn't sure if he should laugh or stay a few feet farther away from the ghost. "Uhh... v-voices?" He licked his lips nervously. "You're not... infected, are you? If you are... does telling them corny jokes really help?"

[Azunara]

Speck grinned proudly. "Seems to be working. I'll be fine. They thrive on hate. I thrive on...er...corny jokes and cheerfulness? They won't get through to me very well." She stated, nodding, before trying to come up with another one. "Hey Voices...What did the caterpie say to the weedle....?"

If the Voices could run away, Speck was positive they would. She smiled proudly.

[Kamalia]

"Ooh! Let me try!" The Buizel paused. "Okay, okay... A Ponyta walks into a bar. The bartender says, 'Why the long face?'" He grinned and looked up at her. "Did that work? Or did they just urge you to kill me?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Jingle got up and ran to Sparky, tackling him, "SPARKY!!! I'MSOGLADYOU'REOKAY!!!!!!"

--

Ghost smiled up at Summer, "Thanks.... And.. You're right, we'll get her back!" She sat up and gave herself a shake, "Think we should go back to the others? It's probably not the best to stay out here.. Even after practically winning that fight.."

((Hmm... Ohey, Azu, Lupis? I've been thinking about drawing some more avatars and stuff (Pfft, I'm changing avatars a mile a minute!) and was wondering if you guys wanted me to make some avatars for you! Heck, anyone else want an avatar? Dammit, maybe I should start up that way old request thread I had a while ago... Hmmm...))

[Magnakilro]

Sparky hugged her tightly, "I'm so sorry....." he said.

[rubybeam]

Somna piped up he had a few extermely lame jokes "What the ursaring say when he was embarssed? he said it was too unBEARble, of course that joke sucked so much that not even a bear like me could BEAR it" somna frowned it was heavly dumb

[Senna-Umbreon]

"D-Don't say sorry..." Jingle replied, crying, "OhhhI'msogladyou'reokaaaaayyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!"

[Azunara]

((I currently love my grey raptor to bits. (I get very attached to my avatars. XD) It reminds me I should actually finish coloring the Dusk Sol I drew...))

Speck cackled. "I think they're embarrassed by having to deal with this. They have no idea what to think..." She seemed very pleased by this. "So, Voices, a Arcanine walks into a bar and says ouch!" She added.

((Corny jokes. A defense only Speck and Julius and Somna could come up with. XD))

[rubybeam]

somna smirked " 1 out of 5 cliffa's were being eaten how many were left, none because they were all ditto's!"
