Dawn of the Blessing (Open RP) (Unova)

[Falcon]

(I'll have you know Harrier just gained an enemy for life. She's such a devious little fire falcon. <3)

Saoirse - Inside then outside the house

Everything was happening far too quickly for Saoirse to follow, up until a blur of orange and gray managed to capture her full attention. That Talonflame was back, and at the hateful falcon's words, the Lucario-Noivern mix's rage skyrocketed as her eyes once again began to glow, faint golden-yellow aftertrails now left with each movement from the Fighting/Dragon dual-type. ((Rage Mode activated! *shot*))

"HOW DARE YOU!!!" She roared, wasting no time in following the Talonflame, her injuries again forgotten. All she wanted was to kill that damned falcon! "WHEN I CATCH YOU, I'M GOING TO RIP YOU APART AND FEAST ON YOUR ENTRAILS!!!"

Saoirse used Outrage!

Ciar - Inside the house

"Seer..." the pup whimpered, blinking back tears as he moved to clutch at one of Stormie's paws as he huddled against her, wide eyes trained upon his older sister. Never had he ever seen her so angry...!

((I'm sorry if this isn't what you were going for, Moon.))

[Moonlost]

Harrier - Outside, moving towards Village Bridge

The roar of words only confirmed to the bird that the fool had fallen for the bait. She flicked her head back quickly, confirming that the mammal had spread the skin flaps that they called "wings" to give chase. All she had to do is follow Sam's example and hope that the crow could deal with the land-based mutations while she kept this one occupied.

She had to be careful though, the bat-thing made it abundantly clear that she was determined to hunt her down. If she got caught before she made it to the Village to the south, then she didn't doubt that she'd be losing more than a few feathers. Time to see just how well the furball could really fly.
A flick of her wing, and she moved away from the house. She folded her wingtips in slightly, reducing wind drag and speeding herself up. She dodged and weaved, dove and rose again, moving about as much as possible to hide the fact that they were moving in a generally southern direction - and in an attempt to avoid any incoming attacks, she knew not what the hybrid was capable of.

Harrier used Agility!

[Azunara]

Rin
Outside

"You had BETTER run!" She crowed after Spinnaker as he turned tail, a huge self-satisfied grin on her face, the flames flickering harmlessly before her. She paused slightly as she looked back at Mattie, Bellflower, and Rose. "She okay, Bellflower?" She asked, frowning slightly. "And, uh. Hope you don't mind me sticking around longer. That ghost'll probably tell everyone ever I attacked him...I wonder if I can brush it off as can you blame me? And maybe he just doesn't want to admit he got his tail handed to him..." She mused for a second, looking thoughtful, then looked back. "Oh, right. You're injured, aren't you? Bellflower, can't you do something?"

She glanced over at the newcomer as well, tilting her head at the sight of Rose. Well, she wasn't Blessing and she certainly seem to know Bellflower. With a shrug, she nodded her head in greeting. "Hi! I'm Marina, although you can call me Rin. Or the best damned thief and spy in Unova and arguably everywhere. Not many people call me that though. Kind of a shame."

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Bwahaha, now it's my turn to wake up to find shit having gone down. XD Arceus, Saoirse, that is.. Certainly one way of using Outrage! XD))

Terrakion, Rhythym, Lir, Bellflower - Outside the house

Rhythym looked up, pausing as she spotted the Breloom that was attacking Terrakion. Even with Deep Freeze already moving to defend the other Legend, the Suicune couldn't help but also let off a stream of ice at the Breloom.

Rhythym used Ice Beam!

Between the Ice Beam and the Blizzard, it took only seconds for the Breloom to collapse, uttering a shriek as it did. Now that it wasn't a threat anymore, Terrakion began to stagger back up. Or at least he tried until he lost his balance and toppled over again, growling in a mixture of pain and frustration. "Arceus-damn it..."

Satisfied that it appeared no other enemies were heading for the door at the moment, Lir padded outside, coming to a halt near Rhythym. He wanted to ask her what exactly was happening, but figured it could wait until later. Noticing how Bastet was clinging to his mother, he crouched down near the other hybrid, concerned, "Bastet? Are you alright?"

-

A lot of things happened at once just then, and between Rin unleashing a small tidal wave, a surprisingly familiar Ampharos appearing, that Chandelure fleeing, and then Mattie grabbing him, Bellflower was starting to get a little overwhelmed. While Rin's silly comments, and who he then recognized as the Ampharos he met during that ridiculous situation back in Sinnoh years ago - Rose was her name - were perfectly good things to pay attention to, the Shaymin figured he'd focus on healing Mattie instead.

Bellflower used Synthesis!

----

Stormie, Shi Yu, Remiel - Inside the house

Stormie let out a sigh of relief as the two birds flew out of the room. Even if the.. Yelling of that larger hybrid freaked her out a little, the important thing was that they were more or less safe now. She blinked as Shi Yu ran over, the little hybrid joining Ciar in clinging onto the Mienshao. "S-Shi Yu? Are you alright..?" Stormie asked, hugging her daughter, a little surprised by how terrified her own voice sounded. Shi Yu merely nodded in reply, sobbing into her mother's fur.

Remiel hesitated, then quickly darted over to Stormie as well. While he wasn't actually related to the Mienshao, she was family to him nonetheless, and he felt much safer near her, even if those birds had already left.

[Falcon]

((Muahaha, thanks, Senna, I planned on having her be as terrifying as I could whenever she'd use that move. And poor Stormie being clung to by a cluster of kids. XD))

Saoirse - Outside, in hot persuit of a certain fire falcon ((Pun not intended, really.))

The Noivario bared her teeth, a feral snarl of pure, unadulterated hatred leaving her as she flew after the Talonflame, not caring that she was moving farther from the house and farther from her baby brother. Oh, she was going to make that thrice-damned bird pay for daring to mess with Ciar and the other kids! Her forepaws stung from where the cold wind was rushing against the glass-inflicted wounds, and her ankle throbbed, but right now, it. Did. NOT. Matter.

When she saw the falcon fold her wings against her sides and speed up considerably, Saoirse went to mirror her movement for movement, another snarl leaving her when a miscalculation nearly caused her to dash herself against the trunk of a tree. A low growl left the Hybrid as she shook her head hard in order to clear away the cobwebs, before she threw all caution to the proverbial wind and focused on pouring on as much speed as she could in one go.

Saoirse used ExtremeSpeed!

Ciar - Inside the house

When he realized what he was doing, the little Riolu-Noibat Hybrid released Stormie's paw, stuttering out a quiet "Sorry.." before he moved to curl up on the floor, where he finally allowed the tears he'd been holding back to slip down his face. "S-Saoirse..."

[HoneyShuckle]

Mattie, GTM, Bastet, Deep freeze- Outside

Mattie smiled when Bellflower healed her but then she just passed out for the second time that day. She really didn't like fire, and her body was making sure she knew that. She was going to need more medical attention in the near future, but for now she wasn't going to bleed out at least.

---

Bastet gave a little smile at Lir. "Y-Yeah, I'm just a little bit shaken." With the blood caking her shoulders she didn't look convincing, but she sounded it. "Have you seen my siblings anywhere?" The firmness in her tone was replaced with concern. She was much older than Sakhmet and Hathor, and they probably wouldn't stand much of a chance if they were caught up alone. GTM tried one more time to get over to Terrakion, but then just resigned himself to be at Rhythym's side, straightening his arm bandana a little bit.

"Terrakion? Are you ok?" "You're bleeding, we can cap it off with a bit of ice until you can get healed!" Deep freeze said, touching the legend's side gently. "If anything, we can go and make sure Stormie is alright?" "Yeah. You and GTM can be stubborn about healing."

Taro-Indoors

Taro paused, then hugged Stormie too. "I-I'm sorry!!" He said to nobody in particular. "I-I couldn't do anything!!!" His tails flopped out on the ground in a tangled mess. He eventually just fell to his knees, tears falling down his cheeks. "I'm sorry..." He whispered.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((It's horrible, but I am highly amused by Stormie getting swarmed by panicked kids for some reason. XD))

Terrakion, Rhythym, Lir, Bellflower - Outside the house

"I'm fine, damn it." Terrakion growled in reply as he tried to get back up again. This time, he actually managed to stand without immediately falling over again. "See? Fine." He paused at Deep Freeze's comment about Stormie, however, seeming to only then remember that Stormie had raced off into the house after what had sounded like their daughter's scream. Trying to ignore the rising panic, he finally replied, "Yeah, go make sure Stormie's alright. And Shi Yu. Now." Turning away from Deep Freeze, he began to make his way over to Rhythym and GTM. Although he did stumble a couple times along the way, he managed to make it over to them. "Okay, excuse me but what the hell are you doing out here? Last I checked, you were in no shape to be out here, you dumbass." He stated, his gaze on GTM.

Rhythym sighed, slightly exasperated at Terrakion's comment, even if he did have a point. "To be fair, GTM.. Terrakion does have a point." She paused, glancing between the two other Legends, "Actually, that goes for both of you. Come on, we should find someone who can actually heal you both, before you get yourselves killed."

"I think I saw them on the far side of the house, actually..." Lir replied, glancing back towards the house, "I told Chiyoko to stay there, so hopefully they're with her... And hopefully she doesn't decide to come after me." He sighed. He wouldn't put it past his half-sister to disobey him and follow him, honestly. The Suikou paused as he looked back, spotting a Honchkrow that appeared to have an injured wing moving away from the house. "Stay here, alright?" He said to Bastet before beginning to follow the bird. He wasn't entirely sure why he had decided to do so, but no one else seemed to have taken notice of the bird, and.. Well, perhaps it would yield some kind of answers as to what in the world was going on and who exactly there hostile Pokemon were. Lir had never been the most.. Reckless sort, and he wasn't the bravest either, he would freely admit that, but perhaps taking a chance just this one time might be worthwhile.

-

Bellflower paused as Mattie passed out. He took a moment to make sure she was indeed just fainted, then turned his gaze to Rose, giving the Ampharos a stupid little grin. "Heeey Rose! It's been a while, huh?"

----

Stormie, Shi Yu, Remiel - Inside the house

"It.. It's okay, Taro.. Um.." Stormie started, ears drooping as she tried to comfort all of the kids that had crowded around her. It wasn't that easy, as she was rather freaked out herself. "E-Everything's okay.. alright?" Continuing, she hugged Shi Yu more tightly, "We're safe now."

Remiel turned and hugged Taro, nearly clinging to his half-brother. While Stormie's words did have something of a calming effect, he was still only barely able to hold back tears himself.

[TK-Hikaru13]

Vanilla - Inside

Vanilla fell to her knees, head spinning. "I'm...I'm so sorry everyone." She apologized. Vanilla was a failure. She had seen this attack, but never said anything. "It's...It's all my fault." She whimpered. A wave of pain came over her. Vanilla let it, head jerking unnaturally as she fell to the floor. She deserved this.

GET OUT OF HERE

you're all a menace

"Hello! Welcome to my house in the woods!"

i mISS yOu.

[Moonlost]

Harrier - Near Village Bridge

She had to admit, the rat was fast. At least for a rat, anyway. She might even have a chance of catching up. There had to be a way to speed things up further.
Harrier then became aware of the flutter of cloth against her breast. Her kerchief. Normally the drag it caused wasn't a problem, but at this moment all it was doing was slowing her down. She hated to do this... but....
With a quick flick of her head, the Talonflame pulled the cloth off of her, letting it flutter away in the air, silently hoping it'd fall somewhere easy for her to find. With that done, she focused back on her flying, and on dodging her pursuer further.

[Silvershade]

Sam
Near Village Bridge

Sam watched as the Talonflame and Lucario hybrid flew into the distance. At least that should keep the hybrid busy for a while. Looking back to see if anyone had noticed him yet, a strange Raikou-like Pokemon caught his attention. With someone to follow him, Sam continued to hop in the direction of the bridge.

As he slowly made his way to the bridge, the Honchkrow noticed a blue piece of cloth. He would have ignored it, but he was sure he remembered it belonging to Harrier. Not wanting to break his injured wing act, Sam made a mental note to come back and return the kerchief to the Talonflame later.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Gonna disappear for at least an hour in a few minutes, just a warning. Soo.. Quick post before I go!))

Lir - Near Village Bridge

He had considered trying to sneak after the Honchkrow, really, but by the time it crossed his mind, it seemed like the bird had already noticed him. There went any element of surprise he could have had.. But then, he wasn't entirely sure he wanted to attack the bird just yet. Just get some answers, perhaps? This whole thing confused him, really. Why had these hostile Pokemon attacked them, anyway? Chiyoko had mentioned some strange hybrids being brought back to the house.. Perhaps that had something to do with it.

Yet as he continued following the Honchkrow, he grew even more confused. Wasn't this nearly Village Bridge? Sure, it was close to the house, but it seemed like.. such an odd choice for any potentially hostile Pokemon to be retreating to. Admittedly, he remembered that the inhabitants of the Bridge didn't like the group from the house all that much - that was one of the reasons they had built a new house just north of the bridge to live at instead - but he didn't think they'd send anyone to attack them...

----

Stormie, Shi Yu - Inside the house

Stormie's ears perked as she heard Vanilla's voice over the children, fur fluffing up in panic when she turned to see that the Audino had collapsed. Giving Shi Yu one last tight squeeze, she darted over to Vanilla, "A-Are you alright?" She stuttered, kneeling down over the Normal type.

As her mother darted away, Shi Yu turned and skittered over to Ciar for comfort instead.

[Jurz]

Rose
Outside!

"Nice to meet you too, Marina, master thief and spy!" Rose grinned at her then ran over to Bellflower, picked him up, and snuggled him, "It's been too long my dear friend!" Rose recognized Bellflower as her first true friend, so was all too happy to be able to see him again. She then put the Shaymin back on the ground, knowing he probably didn't enjoy being smothered. "So, what's going on here?"

[Falcon]

((D'awww, Sam, what a sweet thought! *shot* XD))

Saoirse - Near Village Bridge

Her eyes narrowed when she saw those black and yellow tailfeathers beginning to grow smaller in the distance, and with a snarl, the Hybrid forced herself to put on yet another burst of speed, not caring that she was going to be so tired once this was all said and done.

"Get back here, you fire-spewing pigeon!!!"

Saoirse used ExtremeSpeed!

Ciar - Inside the house

The little Riolu-Noibat mix blinked when he heard movement, before he raised his head to see that Shi Yu's mother had left her in order to check up on that weird pink thing that had tried to protect them before the nightmarish birds attacked. A sniffle left the Hybrid before he pulled himself to his feet and moved to pull the Terrafoo against him as he wrapped his wings around her.

"Th-they'll get w-what's coming to them," he murmured quietly as he rested his head against Shi Yu's, though he was still stuttering a little as he spoke. "S-seer will make those st-stupid birds pay for trying to get us."

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Probably my last post for the night before I crash into bed. XD))

Bellflower - Outside the house

"Heheh, it has!" Bellflower replied, wincing a tiny bit as he was picked up and huggled for a few moments before being let go again. He should have seen that coming, honestly. The Ampharos seemed to really like hugging him for whatever reason. "And uhhhh.. It's sort of a long story. Trust me. You're proooobably better off asking Rin, actually." He skittered over to the Linoone in question as he said this.

----

Shi Yu - Inside the house

Shi Yu blinked as Ciar hugged her, then began to cling to him. It wasn't the same as being hugged by her mother.. But between the other hybrid's wings wrapped around her and his words - as quiet and stutter-y as they were - it was enough to make her relax a little more. "Y-Yeah..." She replied softly, sniffling a little as she pressed her face into Ciar's fur.

((*Lets out high-pitched screeching at these two kids theY'RE SO CUTE*))

[Azunara]

Rin
Outside

"Oh! I like you!" Rin said with a huge grin at Rose. "You heard that, right Bellflower? She totally called me a master thief and spy. That'll show everyone who thought I was making stuff up--oh, right. You want an explanation. I've got this." The linoone launched into her explanation about the Blessing--briefly mentioning how she was the most badass linoone for infiltrating the big scary Blessing (okay supposedly big and scary) in order to discover if there was truth to the rumors about hating the non-pureblooded species. She then explained the attack and why they were here, mentioning the escaped refugees, before finishing it off with, "So uh. Should we go help the others? Maybe try and get Mattie to cover?"

[HoneyShuckle]

GTM, Deep Freeze, Bastet- outside

GTM just leaned against Rhythym. Her sent was kind of distracting him, although she did say something about him. What was it? Was it that he shouldn't be out here? Damn, Terrakion had that worried tone too. "I'm fine...." He mumbled, leaning most of his weight on his mate. If they got more naggy, then that was what they were talking about. He reasoned. If more attention was brought to him, then it was... Mmmmm.... "You smell good....." He mumbled.

Bastet looked where Lir went, and chased after him. "Lir! Wait up! I can help!" She knew he was probably looking for some of those enemies that were here a minute ago, and her arms hurt a lot. But she still wanted to help! Her hair slipped down, trailing out behind her as she ran, green slowly creeping back in.

Bastet's form changed to Aria!

Deep Freeze listened to Terrakion, and dashed inside to find Stormie.

Deep Freeze, Taro-Inside

Taro clung to Remiel. He hadn't even gotten hurt, but that made him feel even worse. Because he had been a cowherd. If people were getting hurt, his dad would have leapt in to make sure that it was HIM getting hurt, and not anyone else. Why couldn't he do that? He wasn't brave at all. He Sobbed into his brother's shoulder.

After a little bit longer, Deep Freeze found them. "are you all alive?" They asked in Unison. "Stormie, are you ok? Terrakion expressed more worry over you then for himself, as per usu- Oh arceus!!!" One Deep Freeze switched to Squeeing. After a second, the other one did too. They went over to Shi yu and Ciar, but were focused mainly on Ciar. "You are so Cute!" "Awwwww!" "Completely adorable!"

[TK-Hikaru13]

Vanilla - Inside

Vanilla just wanted to sleep. She was so tired. She could just barely hear a voice speaking to her. "Nnn." She groaned, turning her head over. 'Just let me sleep.' Vanilla thought.

[Falcon]

((I'm so tempted to make Ciar stuttering when he's upset a permanent thing.))

Ciar - Inside the house

Ciar couldn't help but blush at the comments, his brow furrowing in his rising annoyance. Bah, he was not cute, no matter how many adults said it! He was brave like his sister! "Shh! Be quiet," He growled, pulling his wings slightly tighter around Shi Yu as he glared over at the annoying set of floating ice cream (while wondering exactly how that worked). "You're being too loud, keep it down. Geesh, you're both loud enough to wake the dead."

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Ciar stuttering when upset is beyond cute XD))

Terrakion, Rhythym - Outside the house

"GTM, you are not fine." Rhythym said with a sigh, wrapping her tails around her mate and turning back towards the house. "Now come on, I am getting you back inside so you can rest." She paused to glance at Terrakion, "And you are coming with as well."

"But--" Terrakion began to protest, but was cut off by Rhythym, "Terrakion, you're hurt too. So you're coming with too, even if I have to come back and drag you." She began to pad towards the door, "Besides, it seems as though whoever those Pokemon are have begun to retreat now."

Well, she was right at least. The Blessing Pokemon had started to retreat now. Sighing, Terrakion followed Rhythym back into the house.

----

Lir - Near Village Bridge

Lir paused as he heard a familiar voice call after him, turning to see Bastet run up. "Bastet, what are you doing? You should go back to the house..." He said, ears flattening a little bit. He glanced back towards the Honchkrow he had been following just to make sure he hadn't lost track of it, then looked back at Bastet. "Really, it'll be safer there."

----

Stormie, Shi Yu, Remiel - Inside the house

Stormie paused as Deep Freeze floated into the room. "Ah... We.. We're fine." She replied, turning back to Vanilla as she heard the Audino make some kind of noise. Relieved that the Normal type was at least alive, she turned back to the children and Deep Freeze. "Umm.. Deep Freeze? Is everything okay outside?"

Shi Yu glanced up as Deep Freeze began to squeal, and let out a soft giggle as Ciar acted so grumpy over it. "Hi Deep Freeze..~" She said, the cheerful Ice type's presence proving to brighten her mood a little.

"Taro.. A-Are you okay...?" Remiel asked quietly, not letting go of the other little hybrid. He jumped a little at Deep Freeze's excited squealing, ears flattening, but relaxed a little afterwards. From what she said, it didn't sound like anything too bad had happened downstairs... At least nothing bad enough to mention right off the bat.

[HoneyShuckle]

GTM- Outside -> Downstairs

GTM let his mate guide him back inside, one arm draped over her shoulders. The concern in her tone had been obvious, even in his muddled state. The fact that he was in a muddled state should be proof enough that she should be concerned, honestly. So all and all, it was a loop, proving in which that Rhythym was in the right. As per usual. He gently wrapped his own tail around her twin tails Ashe started to feel the hallway floor under his feet.

Bastet-near village bridge

Bastet's tail floofed up a little bit, betraying her nervousness. "No! I'm coming too, Lir!" She stood her ground. "Something big's finally happening, and I want to be a part of it!" Her gaze hardened. She was still a little miffed that she didn't get to help during the whole Dusa thing, but she was older now. She could handle herself!

Deep freeze, Taro, Sky High- Upstairs

Deep Freeze giggled at Ciar, then looked at Stormie. "We made sure that Terrakion's alright, and everyone else seems more or less ok." "'Course, most of them are a little rough around the edges, but I'm sure they can be patched up pretty quickly!" "Yep, I second! We just need to find Sky High." The two said. As if like Magic, the before mentioned Unfezant came from upstairs. "Is everyone alright down here? There sounded like an awful lot of fighting." Sky high said with a wince. "I'm sorry I couldn't help, Timothy wouldn't calm down, and I had to make sure he wouldn't hurt himself."

Taro wiped one of his eyes. "Y-yeah... I... I'm ok..." He didn't feel very ok, but there was a little bit of truth to his words. physically, there was only a small cut on his paw where he had stepped on a shard of glass.
