Rise of the Shadows!

[Azunara]

((My head feels awful. I'm going to sleep.))

Dialga growled in frustration. "It's not you. It's the Voices. I'm sorry, I'm not angry at you. Believe it or not, I'm just a bit scared. Worried. Every now and then I worry I'll lose control. And...That will happen again." He said vaguely, looking worried and frustrated.

Kiren beamed at the Flying types, ready to kill.

Solara lashed her tail, upright. They'd soon find that someone with nothing more to lose was a dangerous opponent. She was alone now. They didn't care, and that was fine. If she died, it wouldn't matter to them anyway. So the Dusk could come. Nothing mattered.

((*gently pats Sol.* Aaw.))

[Moonlost]

((I missed the conclusion of the fight! D: Curse me and my need for sleep!))

Seventeen lay on her back, enjoying the sun on her belly. She had fled once she saw the other legendaries appear. Trying to take down one had been difficult enough, a motley of them was suicide. She had left the already dead to take care of them. She did what she had set out to do: Kill and maim some uninfected. And her hounds had definately hurt the lord of the seas. Not many dusk could claim they could take on a legendary and come out even. Even without the arcanine, her team was lethal. All in all, a success.

Venin dozed too, her body drifting in a local pond nearby. It wasn't often that she had a chance to recouperate. Seventeen almost always on the run, hunting for her next prery. Or puppying up to Scarab. She was in a strangely good mood actually, especially as they had lost and run away. Normally the manectric was foaming at the mouth at this sort of situation. Best not to wonder about this too much, lest seventeen change her mind and run abck to get them killed.

Gamin was not taking the chance to rest. He growled softly to himself, he had been useless there. True, he had bitten the legendary a few times, but Lugia had just flicked him away like he was an annoying gnat. He wondered why Seventeen had picked him at all. He never seemed to do much. He assumed it was because he was small and nimble. But time and time again, that was proved to be untrue. He wished he was stronger, strong enough to deal with his enemies, to aid Seventeen, to sho her he wasn't a useless pile of fur.
You wish to be strong?
Gamin jumped. Although the voices were a constant companion, they normally chittered to themselves in a corner of his brain. He had eventually tuned them out. Bot now they spoke to him, waiting for him to answer. "Yes," he said in a growl. "Strong! An' Fast! Fierce an' unstopable! I wanna rip open my enemies! Prove to the world I belong in this pack!"
There was silence. Had the voices been mocking him? Teasing his lack of strength as well? Suddenly, pain flaired though him. He fell on the ground, yowling as the pain overtook every sense he had.
As you wish.

Some of the remaining humans poked their noses around the cave. A few children stared in awe at Lugia, then at the other Legendaries. A woman with a Xatu standing beside her stepped forward, looking nervoisly at the great beast of the sea.
"I am sorry to intrude," She said, her head bowed low. "But may we ask for your blessing to remain here? This sanctuary is the only home we've known for monthsnow, and it has kept us safe for all that time."

[Magnakilro]

"Her final words were....'Save our son'...." The beedrill sighed.

Chomp walked up, "We'll save him....and avenge your wife!"

"T-Thanks..."

[Kira]

Lugia turned to look at the human, blinking at her slowly. He lowered his head and stared at her on her level for a moment before he reached his head out and touched his snout to her forehead gently, a single note leaving him.
Mewtwo smiled slightly as he moved to help Kyuu stand.
"Thanks." Kyuu said cheerfully as she smiled at him. She glanced over at Lugia and the humans. "You know..that's kinda cute."
Mewtwo simply rolled his eyes.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys was standing against a wall, watching for more attackers.

[Magnakilro]

The Beedrill looked up at Chomp, "Is there anything we can do for you? Anything at all?"

Chomp thought for a moment, "Can you find our friend? She's an Espeon named Solara. I'm worried about her..."

The beedrill nodded tears still filled his eyes. He flew away, "I can't believe my son killed her..."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Sirius glared at Ironskull, but before he could attack again, something bit his back leg.

Ghost Girl used Bite!

The Jolteon yelped, "DAMMITTHATHURT!!!" He frantically shook his leg, trying to dislodge the Umbreon. Finally Ghost let go of him, and after giving her a confused and terrified look, he turned and darted away.

'Crap... That was a bad idea.. Those two were a lot harder to fight than I thought... Ow.. My leg hurts...' Sirius thought as he ran. After a bit of running, he picked up the scent of.. Water! And lo and behold.. A river! Perfect! He trotted to the bank of the river, and put his leg in the water to wash all the blood away.

After washing off his leg, he noticed a Pokemon swimming around in the water nearby. Huh... He tilted his head at the little Buizel, pondering whether he should attack it or just try and find the rest of the Dusk.

[Lupis]

Buzzard laughed uproariously and roared, flames pouring from his maw, then glanced to Kiren. "Time to fight! Ahahah, lets DO THIS!" He dove towards the Dawn, shooting gouts of flame, then banked up before he could get too close and used the heat from his own fires to propel him upwards. Again he roared, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Summer smiled brightly, and sarcastically, at Shakes, continuing to sing along. With a flick of her tail she blew a chilling wind at Shakes, singing happily despite the rather sad nature of the song itself.

[Magnakilro]

Iron looked at Ghost wondering if they should chase him.

-----

The lead Beedrill talked to his scouts about the mission Chomp gave him.

They all flew away in search of Solara.

The lead Beedrill flew towards Mount Coronet

[Moonlost]

The human carefully touched Lugia's snout. "Thank you, great one." She said in a reverant whisper. The rest of them moved in. Where there had been well over a hundred before, barely twenty entered. The few children there were sent off to gape and marvel at the creatures that they knew as legends and gods. The adults, along with their pokemon, set out on the task of clearing the dead out of the cavern.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys looked at the children and wondered to himself, To think I would have willingly killed them years ago....thank Arceus I gave that up..

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost stared after the fleeing Jolteon, then shrugged, "Stupid thing..." She glanced up at Iron, "And naah, it'd be a waste of time to chase him. He's learned that he can't just attack us and expect to win. I doubt he'll be back anytime soon. Especially since I bit his leg! Jolteon's rely on speed, and thanks to that bite, he'll be at a disadvantage due to not being able to run as fast!"

[Kira]

Lugia looked at the children and smiled, laying himself down and seeming to turn his wings to small slides. He nudged one of the children very gently and placed his tail near his side to form a sort of stairway.
Mewtwo blinked at Lugia, not expecting that. Though..it was rather cute..what, what?! No! He Never thought like that! Damn it..Kyuu's personality was starting to rub off on him.
Kyuu tilted her head before she moved to help the humans clean up.

Shakes let out a yelp as she was hit with the cold, snarling and about to attack Summer before Avalanche stopped her.
Sosa nearly laughed, but continued to sing, enjoying the odd harmony the two had.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys smiled and shifted forms in front of the kids. He switched to Attack Form

[rubybeam]

Quest smirked killing some of the dawn and eating some he left some alive to join the army her maw was filled with blood staining her hot stickt breath



The jolteon soon came to the cave he heard the scream only to find a dead vepsiqueen

[Magnakilro]

The Beedrills surrounding thier fallen queen immediately got ready to attack.

----

Iron nodded at Ghost but suddenly began sniffing the air.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost tilted her head at Iron, "What's up? Don't tell me that Jolteon's back or something.. Ugh."

[Magnakilro]

He scratched a picture of Julius and drew an arrow in the direction the scent was coming from.

[Moonlost]

Some of the chilren happily scrabled on hop of Luiga, racing to see how quickly they could reach his head, delighted at the thought of riding the great big pokemon. Others stayed back, gasping at Deoxys, asking him what the big tentacle things did. One young girl toddled over to Mewtwo and tugged on the end of his tail.
The adults nodded their thanks at kyuu. The bodies were assembled outside. There, ground pokemon went underground and excavated a number of graves. Each man, woman, child and pokemon was placed in solumnly. Many cried for ther dead spouses, children and friends.

[Senna-Umbreon]

"Wha? ... That's the direction the Jolteon went it. ... CRAP. Come on, let's go!" Ghost whirled and darted in the direction the Jolteon went.
