Rise of the Shadows!

[Lupis]

Scarab shook his head and jumped back, easily dodging the attack - he was still thinking clearly, thanks to the Dusk voices, telling him exactly what to do. He snarled again, but was determined not to call in other Dusk until he really needed help. Instead he, yet again, called on the strength of his age, attacking Chomp with it.
Scarab uses AncientPower!

((Having about four useful attacks for this species is not helping. >.> Also, this fight.. is going to take a while. Chomp is determined as heck, and very tough, and Scarab is quick and couldn't care less about pain. Someone break it up! ))

The Ghosts dragged Delora away faster, while Crone sucked up the pain and fired a Shadow Ball down at Olivia's face.
Crone uses Shadow Ball!

[Kira]

Kyuu snarled and finally broke, leaping over a few Dusk as she rushed into the fight between Chomp and Scarab, her paw becoming surrounded in mist and small specs of ice. She took aim at Scarab's skull, hissing as she punched at it, letting the cold form as she drew close.
Kyuu used Ice Punch!

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rust squirmed for a moment, then slowly raised his head, ".. Meep?" He squeaked.

[Magnakilro]

Chomp slowly rose to his feet. He was bleeding badly. He was unable to dodge the Ancientpower. He retailiated by using the power of the Water startes...Blastoise.....Feraligatr....Swampert....Empoleon....Daikenki.....the power manifested itself into a powerful water attack

Chomp used Hydro Cannon

[Kamalia]

A paw shot out of the ground and seized Seventeen's hind leg. The ground underneath of her churned and crumbled, becoming loose and unstable. The paw began to drag the Manectric down.

Olivia let out a screech as the Shadow Ball collided into her beak. Her eyes watering and burning, she leapt at Crone, furiously swinging her claws with the ghostly attack. Molly took off after Delora, firing Psychics and Ghost Balls at the Dusk holding her. Tira joined up, growling and snapping.

[Azunara]

Eleredar shook himself and leaped after the ghosts, leaping at one of them and snapping his jaws.

El used Bite!

---

Cro leaned against his dad, looking forlorn. Or tired. "I'm sorry I got captured, dad...I should've fought better, protected everyone else...It's just that fire really, really, really doesn't feel good at all. It makes me feel all painful and melty. I don't think that's normal."

[Moonlost]

((Oh and it does! Electic puppy does not like being called a light pussy... Hmm, that one's a little risque...
And giving me some Dusk to play about with, oh you shouldn't have. ))

Seventeen snarled, leaping at Zerak herself, snapping and tearing at him as the same was delt to her.

Seventeen used Bite!

Venin and Gamin crashed though the bushes, looking around frantically. Venin looked around, gaging the situation quickly, then fired a blast of water at Ironskull.

Venin used Hydro Pump!

Gamin looked at the paw reaching for his boss' leg, and charged at it, snapping.

Gamin used Super Fang!

Red eyes glinted from the bushes. Slowly, dusk began to creep forward, waitign for their chance. A Quilava with burning grey flames leaped forward first, blasting Ironskull with a cone of fire.

Dusk Quilava used Flamethower!

[Magnakilro]

"Shhh...its not your fault Cro....you tried your best...." he held the Dialga close to his chest, healing him as best as he could.

Iron ran over to Rust, giving him a lick on the cheek. The affection was cut short by sudden attacks, causing Iron to fall to the ground.

[Lupis]

Scarab was NOT expecting that. The voices guided a scythe to slash at the incoming paw, but it the impact broke the top third of that scythe off with a metallic clank.
Suddenly he seemed to turn to stone - completely motionless, like a statue. His body functions slowed down to a crawl. His shell turned to a steel-like strength. The hydro cannon knocked him far back, but at least nothing was broken - although he was rattled. It took him a moment to start getting to his feet again, his shell becoming its normal strength.
Scarab uses Harden!
Hands was sick of it all. She heard Scarab get knocked away and stealth dove at where she hoped Chomp's eyes were.
Hands uses Quick Attack!

The ghosts grumbled with annoyance, the Shuppet continuing to drag Delora away while the others turned to fight. They launched combined Will'o'Wisps at the attackers.
Ghosts use Will'o'wisp!

[Magnakilro]

Chomp saw the owl coming, then looked at the kidnapping bag he brouth with him. He opened the bag, and held it where Hands was heading.

[Kira]

Kyuu stuck her tongue out at Scarab, realizing how childish it was but not caring. She didn't like that guy, at all.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Hmm.. *Looks at Rust* Heehee, I has an idea~))

Rust let out a high pitched squeak as he watched his father fall. He shakily stood up, letting out a tiny growl, his body starting to glow blue. At the same time, a blue-ish shield appeared around Iron.

Rust used Protect!

((Protect seems like a very fitting move for Ghost and Iron's kid, don't ya think? XD And hell, the little Umbreon I have in SoulSilver who's based on Rust knows Protect anyway. It's very usefull <3))

[Azunara]

Cro gave a light, pained shudder.

Solara looked up, and realized that they had left Delora. She had gotten her into this mess, and she had left her. The espeon snarled, shaking herself. She was better off than most of them, exhaustion really being the only thing dragging her down. She hunted down Delora mentally, glad she was psychic, and charged.

---

Zerak snarled, "Aww. Lazer kitty has friends now, too! Cute. Too bad they'll go down with you." He was bitten on his foreleg, but retaliated with a sudden slash towards Seventeen's face, aiming for her nose or her eyes, as well as snapping his jaws at her throat.

Zerak used Trump Card!
Zerak used Bite!

[Kamalia]

The paw recoiled at the bite for a moment before the ground erupted. A dusty, dirty, and very, very pissed off Floatzel bellowed and lunged at Gamin, his paw balled into a fist.
Julius used Focus Punch!
He turned his head and blasted a torrent of water at the Quilava at the same time.
Julius used Waterfall!

Molly grimaced at the burning sensation on her skin. She opened her mouth and a soft chiming noise rang out.
Molly used Heal Bell!

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull looked at Rust in surprise. He then stood up and roared savagely at the Dusk. He caused Fissures in their ranks.


Demonica was fighting off Dusk. She was heavily wounded.

[Azunara]

Solara used Wish on Demonica!
Solara used Morning Sun!

Solara gave a slight grin at Demonica, "You're welcome!" She called, before trying to located Delora. There. Stupid ghosts. She leaped into attack, firing any attack she had. Grass sprang from the ground, trying to twist itself into one of the ghosts and encase it.

Solara used Grass Knot!

[Magnakilro]

Demonica looked at Solara with surprise. She then continued her attacks.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((*Looks around* Hey, isn't anyone gonna try and help poor Ghost? She's kinda um.. Lying over here.. Bleeding to death... *Flails*))

Rust squeaked happily at Iron, cheering him on.

[Kira]

Delora growled and seemed to glare at Solara. "Get out of here you idiot!" She tried to lash at the ghosts, hissing. "Go help the others! I'll be fine!"

(( *sigh* Okay, as much as I love you all...STOP TRYING TO SAVE DELORA! I has a plan! ))

[Magnakilro]

((Deoxys healed her earlier lolnuggets....guess he'll heal again!))

Deoxys threw another Recover on Ghost.
