The Blood Games

[Magnakilro]

Chomp looked at Molly, "Hey...where's Olivia been?"

[Kamalia]

"...And I dunno what happened to mom and dad, they said they were going to...make the world a little more purple..not sure what that meant."

((LOOOOOL. *scoots off to hunt down a name for the Raltsly*))
((And Magna, considering that Molly appears to be... busy... I'll just have Julius answer.))

"Olivia's been away too?" Julius blinked up at the Feraligatr. "I was looking for Aurora earlier, but I couldn't find her. I thought she was with you guys, but I guess not." He frowned. "I wonder if they went out to do something? That'd be kinda weird, though. Olivia and Aurora don't hang out with each other that often." He scratched his neck, pondering. "I wonder where they've gone off to."

Vadimas had watched the confrontation, a frown on his face and his ears pinned back. He shook his head once Diablo had left. "Awful. An excellent example of how these blasted arenas can tear down any shred of humanity one might have left in them." The Kadabra let out a deep sigh and looked up at Boku. "Are you all right, son?"
"Here, maybe I can -" Jira pressed herself up against the bars of her cage. She stretched out her paws in Boku's direction and put a determined expression on her face. "I think... I almost..."
Jira used Healing Wave! ((Lucarios in Gen V can learn this at level 42, apparently. o_O))
"Bah." She scowled as the bruise faded only slightly. "I need to work on that, badly."

[rubybeam]

"I'm okay I think" boku nodded "The humans gave me more more smaller marks when I was struggling during the capture"

[Kamalia]

"Why are they catching kids in the first place?" Chase asked. He was hanging upside-down, his tail wrapped around one of the bars that made up the top of his cell. "They really aren't expecting them to fight, are they?"

[rubybeam]

"I-I hope not.." boku whined remebering the sight of the burning dewgong

[Azunara]

((Fel. *keeps feeling guilty for Aurora. Every time she's mentioned.* >.< You're doing it on purpose, huh? xD))

Solara looked away from the window and sat down next to Soundwave, resting her head on his shoulder. Her tail twitched, and she had her ears pricked, every sense aware for things out there.

((And yes, I am planning an attack, so if you humans want in on that, feel free. *totally will get Sol and probably Lyra captured. >.>))

[Moonlost]

Havoc whined, he didn't like that loud one, the one who got taken away. But he couldn't run anywhere or bite him while in this strange metal trap. He couldn't smell much more than blood and filth either. Wherever he was, he didn't like it one bit. He paced about the cell, trying to poke his head though the cell bars. The gaps were too small for him to fit though though.

"Because they can be trained to be killers easier." Renten responded to Chase, stopping his wings as he talked. "And to abuse them in some of the games. I once saw them set twenty children and unevolved on a Salamance in a special fight." He growled again. "Weren't a pretty sight, I can tell you."

"You'll learn what it means when you're older Arkon." Baaz chickled, before looking at Lilith with a raised eyebrow and a cheeky grin. "Although one must admit that trying to make a little more orange seems like a good idea sometime?"
His ears jolted up suddenly at the sound of the Murkrow. Not one of his two Murkrows either... He really didn't like this.

((Now to insta-port my human over there XD ))

Zarre glared a little at Kanna, not liking her dismissive attitude, but said nothing. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I heard Kerym found a nice little score and she wanted some help bringing them all in."
The poacher left, moving into the containment cells to pick herself out a few pokemon to aid in the hunt. She picked out and an Aerodactyl and a Roserade, both of them submissive and willing to comply to her orders. She moved outside to climb onto the Aerodactyl's back, taking off to the location she heard the other hunter mention.

[Azunara]

Abyss gave a soft squawk, perching on Kerym's shoulder. She absently fingered one of the other pokemon balls she had, a large, bulky typholosion for force. She pulled out her binoculars and nodded in satisfaction. If she and Zarre could pull this off, it'd be a nice haul. Plenty of fresh blood for the games, and a few of them looked abnormal, meaning they had been evolved Dusk. Fantastic. She had a score to settle with the Dusk, and this was a great means to do it. Abyss chirped softly, readjusting his wings.

[Kamalia]

Chase went rather quiet at this and Jira let out a low growl.
"Scum," she hissed. "Every single one of them. Remember a few years back when there was a bunch of Pokémon trying to kill off humans? Would've been nice if they had succeeded. None of this would've happened."
Leena blinked at the Lucario. "You don't really mean that, right Jira? Not all humans are that bad."
"Too bad it seems like most of them are." The Lucario curled up into a sullen blue ball, her fur bristling.

[Moonlost]

Zarre kiccked her aerodactyl downward, skimming close to the ground to remain as undecected as possible. Eventually, she landed at the appointed location, looking around for Kerym. Seeing the other poacher, she moved to her side, grabbing her own binoculars to scan the area. She whistled appreciatively.
"I can see why you were so excited about this haul." Zarre said. "Some ferocious looking fighters, some unevolved. I think I can see a few hybrids and some of those Dusk. Very nice. How are we transporting the larger ones. Do have vehicles on their way, or are we going to pokeball capture them?"

[Azunara]

((I'm just going to assume they've got enough materials and the technology to have all the Master Balls they want. *nods.*))

Kerym held up a dark colored pokemon ball. "A few of these will take care of our transport issue real fast." She said, pausing to glance at the building where they were, "Ready when you are." She said quietly, hand on the typholosion's ball, Abyss ready to take off.

[Moonlost]

Zarre took a pokeball off her belt, releasing a battered and dented Magnezone. The creature hummed idly, scanning the area and waiting for the command to attack. As with her partner, she kept a close hand to the Roserade in her ball on her belt. "On you." She grinned.

((Edit: Since the topic is a little slow today, I think I'm going to lay down and catch up on a little missed sleep. Play a little pokemon too. I'll be back later!))

[rubybeam]

Boku whined "Thyer aren't going to do that to me are they?" he started to shake violently again scared

[Azunara]

Kerym nodded, and Abyss let out a loud, sharp cry. A warning. They were coming.

The dark feathered bird flew forth, and Kerym released the Typhlosion, moving forward, crouching low. The large flaming creature moved closer and exhaled flames, lighting the building on fire. They'd flush them out.

---

Solara jerked, smelling flames, ears pricked. The murkrow grew bolder, louder. She wheeled around to see flames flickering, a typhlosion, a human. She roared, quickly moving. Lyra blinked, flying to her mother's side and standing there, head tilted. "It's on fire." Solara hissed.

[Lupis]

Linn entered the room, looking around impatiently. "Where's Zarre? She'd better be getting more Pokemon. The consumers are getting impatient." He looked sharply towards Kanna and Aanjay. "Well?" he snapped.
Aanjay rolled her eyes at him, and Soothsayer hissed. "Yes, she's hunting. I think she's out with the rest of her hunters." She turned back to Kanna. "Yes, we should set up the new ranks today. Hopefully we'll have new fighters when Zarre and the others get back. Might even get a new team set up - those things really rake in the money." She grinned. "Funny how people support teams so zealously."

Buzzard looked sharply towards the noise and snarled. What's going on, Sol, Sound?

((UGHHH so much homework today. >.< Just now finished it all.))

[Kamalia]

"I got it!" Julius leaped up. Noting the leaky sink next to him, he nudged open the cupboard doors underneath. He took the pipes in his mouth and pulled back, hard. There was a creaking and a groaning and the pipe split open. The Floatzel's paws splashed in the water as he turned to face the direction Solara was facing. He blinked in surprise at the sight of a Typhlosion and a human beyond the flames. He forced the water to surge forth in a mighty wave to douse the flames and maybe scare off the strange human and her Pokémon.

Julius used Surf!

[Senna-Umbreon]

((XHFZJTJ I'M HERE. XD))

Ghost blinked, letting out a quiet growl, "Aurora's gone too? Dammit!!" She lashed her tail.

((I need to have something happen with my characters... ...... ...... *Grins* Ghost is SO gonna hate me for this but... WHATEVER. 'Sides, if Sol and Lyra get captured, Ghost would probably try and save them and get captured too. Having Copper get captured just makes sure it happens! Muawahahahaha!!))

"I'm bored. I wanna play!!" Copper said, huffing.

Rust sighed, "We can play later..."

"I wanna play NOW!!!"

"I said later!!"

"What the heck are you two arguing about now?" Ghost said, turning to look at the two kids.

"Copper wants to play a game right now.. And I keep telling her that we'll play later.." Rust replied.

Ghosty flicked her tail, sighing. "Well, Rust is right. Now's not the time to play."

"But..? I wanna play!!" Copper said, her tail starting to lash.

"Yes, well.. Your brother is still right. You'll have to wait."

"I DON'T WANNA WAIT! .... You're mean."

"... No I'm not. It's just that--"

"It's just that you don't care about me, right?! That's why you're agreeing with Rust!!!" Copper said, letting out a tiny growl.

Ghost blinked, slightly taken aback. "That's not true. You know that."

"Yes it is!!! You've NEVER liked me! You've always loved him, though!!!! YOU BIG DUMBIE!!!!!!!!" The Joltos screeched, then took off, racing outside, fading as she went.

Ghost stared after Copper, blinking in shock.

((I had the idea of something like this happening while I was trying to fall asleep... .... Also, kid logic is pretty odd XD))

[rubybeam]

Soon diablo came back the same human holding the gun to the back of his head came in, diablo only seemed to be in a much more terrible mood, boku whined at the sight of him

[Azunara]

"Coward cat! Coward cat!" The murkrow taunted, unphased by Solara's ferocious psybeam. "Stupid, too!" The typhlosion scowled at the water, giving a growl of disapproval but radiated a blast of heat, flames surging up. Kerym meanwhile grabbed a few Master Balls, waiting patiently for the pokemon to step out. Come on, come on...

Solara snapped her jaws at the murkrow that flew by the window. Obviously, the glass prevented connection, but she was trying to be threatening. Lyra whined, "What's going on?" She asked, scared.

"I knew it! Humans!" The psyceon shouted mentally, furious.

[Lupis]

Buzzard blinked, then roared in rage. I KNEW IT! We can't be left alone! He charged forward, roaring ferociously to scare away the attackers, immune to the flames.
