Rise of the Shadows!

[Kamalia]

Julius raised his head. He blinked and waddled over to the egg (still resembling a walking, static-filled ball of fur). He snuffled at it and nudged it with his nose. "Helloooo?"

Olivia blasted fire at the snow several times, her heart pounding. "Tira? Tira, is that you? Tira!" She took fistfuls of snow, heaving it behind her. She stood back, trembling.
The Flygon was stiff and blue. Olivia extended a claw toward her and touched her skin. It felt hard and brittle. "Oh, Arceus. Tira..."

[Magnakilro]

Jaws looked at Olivia, "We've GOTTA get her back to the cave NOW!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rikki raised an eyebrow at Julius, "I suggest you leave the egg be. Unless you want it to think you're its mom, that is!" She snickered.

[Magnakilro]

Iron picked up Ghost and walked over to the egg.

[Kamalia]

Olivia exhaled hot air around the Flygon. "How long was she like this? Jaws... Jaws, can you even feel a pulse?" She whimpered, then continued blowing hot air on her. How long had she been here like this? A day? Longer? Covered in snow? She let out a nervous noise as she noted a gouge in the Flygon's chest.

"Eep!" Julius scurried away and ducked behind Iron and Ghost.

[Magnakilro]

Jaws placed a hand on her wrist, "....its very faint..."

[Kamalia]

Olivia nodded quickly. "Okay..." She heaved Tira up. "She's so cold..." She slung her over Jaws's back, then climbed on after her. "Let's go, quick."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost gave Julius an amused glare, "It's almost tempting to wait and see how that'd turn out.. A wacky little fuzzball of a Buizel like you as a mom? Hah, that'd be hilarious!" She turned her attention back to the egg, which had gained yet another small crack, "Huh.. Didn't expect it to hatch this early..."

[Magnakilro]

Jaws flew as fast as possible to the cave without dropping Tira. Upon landing he carefully laid her on the ground. He looked around frantically for a way to warm her up.

[Kamalia]

"I bet I'd be a great mum." The Buizel shrugged and grinned. "If you guys still haven't though up a name for him yet, I'd hurry up!"

"MMOOOOLLLLYYYYYY!" Olivia screeched. "EMERGENCY! TIRA!" The Gardevoir blinked and looked up, her eyes widening at the mention of the young dragon's name. She rushed over to see Olivia desperately blowing puffs of hot air at her. "Find something warm! Anything! Now! She's frozen!"
Molly stared, fumbling for words. "Jaws, can you look and see if we have any blankets in our supplies?" She knelt beside Olivia and Tira, pressing her hands on the wound in the Flygon's chest. "What happened?" She whispered, startled at the temperature of Tira's skin.
"It looks like she was attacked. She was buried in snow..."

[Magnakilro]

Jaws frantically looked in the supplies trying to find blankets. He found a few. He brought tem to Tira, covering her in several layers of warm blankets. He flew out of the cave quickle, cutting down trees. He brought back some firewood, laying the wood next to Tira, "Burn this."

[Senna-Umbreon]

"Really? Actually, yeah, you'd probably be better than even me!" Ghost snickered, "And I still got nothing for a name.." She let out a small 'eep!' as a fairly loud craak! came from the egg. She glanced down at it, and was greeted by a tiny grey-ish brown snout poking out of the egg.

[Magnakilro]

Iron tilted his head at the snout, still wondering what the rest of the baby will look like.

[Kamalia]

Olivia blasted the wood. It began to glow, crackle and burn. She returned to puffing hot air underneath of the blankets.
Molly was talking to Julius. The Gardevoir formed a bubble with Protect, leaving a hole at the top. Julius's face screwed up, and then poured hot, steaming, Boiling Water from his mouth into the bubble. Molly sealed it, gave Julius a thank you and a pat, then returned to them. She slipped the bubble underneath of the blankets and nestled it next to Tira's chest. She sat beside Olivia. The Blaziken was staring into space.
"Do you realize that only half of us are left?"
"Hm?" Molly blinked
"Our old team. It's only you, me, and Tira. Louis is gone, Desna is gone... heck, I'm even missing that irritating little Zigzagoon. If Tira... if Tira... then... it'll only be you and me left."
Molly looked down, then hugged Olivia. Olivia returned the hug. The Blaziken looked up at Jaws, tired. "Thanks for the help, Jaws."

"Eeeee! I see him!" Julius grinned, trying to get a better look without risking being the first thing the baby saw.

[Magnakilro]

Jaws put his arm around the two ladies, "Your welcome..."

[Senna-Umbreon]

A small squeak left the little snout as the 'kit' squirmed around and eventually poked its whole head out of the egg. It looked mostly like an Eevee, but it had tiny little Cranidos-like horns. It looked up at Ghost, blinking.

[Magnakilro]

Iron smiled and placed Ghost on the ground so she could greet thier new baby.

[Moonlost]

((Sorry for getting on so late. It's my dad's birthday, been kinda busy doing suff for that.
... And I just realised that Inins probably doesn't have his glasses. I doubt they would haev survived the fall, let alone stayed on his face. XD))

"Do we really need to bring Seventeen here? All she'll want to to is snarl and eat the man." She sighed and stood up before she could be chastised. "Don't worry, I'll get them." She trotted off, in no hurry to reach her pack.

~

Insins' earlier suspicions were looking to be true. None of the Dusk were attacking him. How curious. He carefully stood up, wincing a little as he did so. The kabutops seemed to be staring at him, chittering. Was it trying to talk to him?
"I'm sorry, I cannot understand pokemon speech." He said in a calm voice.

((You have no idea how close I was to writing that as "pokèspeech" >.< ))

[Senna-Umbreon]

((*Looks at the little baby* ... I have officially decided to call it a.. Cranievee. Yerp. Cranievee and Rampardeon XD))

Ghost, after a moment's hesitation, bent down and nuzzled the little Cranievee, who squeaked in reply, then started squirming some more, trying to get fully out of the egg.

[Magnakilro]

Iron lowered his head next to Ghost to get a good look at the baby. He started to purr softly.
