Rise of the Shadows!

[Magnakilro]

"Ask your mother..." Deoxys replied as he set him down near Delora.

[Kira]

Delora gave Deoxys a little glare.
"Mommy, can we stay the night?" Ciro looked up at her with big eyes.
Delora sighed. She hated when he used that look. "ONE night Ciro..then back home."
"Thank you mommy!" He moved over to her and nuzzled against her before he settled down and closed his eyes.
"Well, this is a change..they're using me as a pillow instead of you love." Delora smiled as she looked up at Deoxys.

[Magnakilro]

"....something tells me that won't stop YOU..." Deoxys said with a chuckle

(aaaaaand off to bed for me, gn all!))

[Kira]

"Of course not." Delora said almost cheerfully. "Now get your butt over here, I'm tired myself."

[Kamalia]

"Now by old do you mean ones Before us or ones like Chomp and Sparky and them? Cause I need to know, it'll be harder to find people I don't know." Daray frowned a bit.

"Yes, them. Can't say I've had many other comrades besides them." Desna chuckled, then stopped abruptly. "Did... you say Sparky?"

"It's the worst when a little one has to witness death..." Molly looked sadly over at Ciro.
"Well, it is a part of life. A sad part, perhaps, but still a part of it. And thanks, luv." Olivia leaned back against Jaws, her eyes sliding shut.

[Kira]

Daray winced before he nodded. "Yeah, I did...he and Jingle were killed by those stupid Pseudo's. Speck and I brought them to a nice spot that has a permanent sunset. It's really pretty actually.."

(( Headache...very late..sleep now...night.. ))

[Kamalia]

((Why am I up this late ugghnnn))

Desna closed his eyes. "I... see. At least it sounds as though they are happy in their afterlife..."

[Azunara]

Solara blinked, "Wait. Speck did that?" Eleredar, without further questioning, leaped into the skies, circling once, then peeling off towards the Dusk camp. He saw a small circle with a huge steelix in the middle, Larry, and a decent swarm that occasionally were pushed back. He dove down into them, scattering them. The haunter didn't look too good. She was hurt in multiple places, and the dark attacks hurt more than she'd like to admit.

"I thought I sa-nevermind. Hi El, I need some help." Speck said tiredly, launching another desperate Dark Pulse, weak shades hovering besides her. Eleredar leaped at the nearest Dusk, tearing into them.

Speck used Dark Pulse!
Speck used Night Shade!
Eleredar used Aerial Ace!

[Magnakilro]

Sparky's interesting life story continued, "....so after I conquered Russia....I decided to play in a band...I'm the best damn Triangle player in the world1"

-------

In the uninfected camp, a dark keystone appeared near Ciro.

Demonica popped out, bit him and teleported away with a cackle.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Sparky's interesting life story continued, "....so after I conquered Russia....I decided to play in a band...I'm the best damn Triangle player in the world1"

((... *Gigglesnort*))

[Magnakilro]

((Sparky...the most interesting 'mon in the world.))

[Saturo]

The Steelix roared in pain, and lunged into the ground to avoid attacks.
Steelix used Dig!
The ground tremored slightly as it tunneled around, and it then lunged up at Scarab's location, launching itself into the air, and then exploding. A heavy blast wave and several peces of twisted metal blasted out, several Dusk getting pierced and killed by the metal. The Unown threw up their most powerful shields around Speck and Elredar, and managed to protect them from the dangerous metal. Their own shield was more exposed tough, and a lot of the shrapnel managed to pierce it, knocking two Unown unconscious from the impact, and around four were split in the middle by sharper pieces. The ones hit with the sharp pieces died instantly, falling to the ground.
"Uh... Damn... Uh... Tactical retreat!", their leader panickingly ordered it's minions. They started teleporting away.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Just want to let you all know.. I'll be absent for pretty much all of today. I have an Entei and a Gardevoir to train, not to mention my new Pokemon Ranger game to play, Pokemon Emerald to find... Oh and I'm getting my laptop back today too, and since apparently from what they can tell... Nothing was lost, so I'll be drawing up a storm when I'm not playing my games. Sooo.. I'll be gone today. Sorry XD))

[Kira]

Sparky's interesting life story continued, "....so after I conquered Russia....I decided to play in a band...I'm the best damn Triangle player in the world1"

-------

In the uninfected camp, a dark keystone appeared near Ciro.

Demonica popped out, bit him and teleported away with a cackle.

(( First off...Sparky...you scare me little guy. Seriously...
Second...wthMagnayoubitCiroyouarse! I'mma KILL YOU! ))

Daray nodded. "They are..no one wanted them to die but since they did..well, at least their happy. And they left together so...it's still horrible, but they're with each other now."

Ciro opened an eye bit a whine and looked at his paw. "Owies.."
Delora shifted a bit to look at him, her head tilting as she saw the bite. "Did you nip yourself in your sleep?"
"No...I was asleep and something bit me and I heard a laugh..."

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys woke up and looked at the bite, "...hmmm I doubt it was anyone in this camp...why would they try to bite Ciro..."

[Kira]

Ciro whined again and shook his paw. "It feels funny." He mutted with a pout.
Delora shifted again, making sure to not hurt Theia and Ketsin as they slipped off her. Love, you don't think it could have been...

[Magnakilro]

I don't know....I hope to Arceus its not....

------

Sparky continued, ".....there was a picture of a clown hanging over my bed for years....thought it was God for the longest time...."

Chomp nudged Jingle, "...how long has he been at this...?"

[Kira]

"Tell me what happened again?"
"I was asleep, and I felt something bit me so I woke up. I heard a weird laugh, but it might have been in my dream." Ciro said as he stared at his paw.

---

"Anywho! Let's get you to Chomp and the others!" Daray smiled and held a hand out to Desna.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys looked at the bite mark, "...hmmm I don't think anyone here has teeth that could make a mark like that..."

[Kira]

Delora began to get a sinking feeling in her gut. She glanced around to see if any of the others were awake. "I hope someone does and it's just one of us.."
