Rise of the Shadows!

[Kira]

"No I didn't!" Ciro protested, starting to tear up now. "You were just trying to help and I was being a complete Brat!"

[Magnakilro]

"Shhhh calm down son....." he said as he continued to gently stroke Ciro.

[Kira]

Ciro sniffed and shook his head. "I should never have said that dad. I'm so sorry.."

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys carefully lifted Ciro and embraced him, "Its alright son.....its alright..."

[Kira]

Ciro nuzzled his father, closing his eyes tight as he started to cry. "Pleasedon'thatemedadInevermeantanyofit."

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys held Ciro close to his chest, "Of course I don't hate you son....nothing you do could ever make me hate you..."

[Kira]

Ciro whined and snuggled into his father. "Promise...?"

[Magnakilro]

"Promise." Deoxys replied.

[Kira]

Ciro sniffed again before he settled in against his father.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys continued hugging and stroking Ciro, "Just relax son...rest...recover....it'll be alright..."

[Kira]

Ciro sniffed and closed his eyes tight, still shivering gently. He soon fell asleep, head buried in his fathers chest.
Delora dug her claws into the ground, still wishing she could rip into that damn ghost.

[Magnakilro]

He gently laid Ciro against Delora, "She wll pay for this..."

[Kira]

Delora simply growled, not about to voice her thoughts with children around.

[Lupis]

((Grahhhh. I wish I could be more active, I really do. x.x))

It didn't bother Scarab that the two leaders of his ghost teams didn't return. At least the rest of them had returned. One of them had informed him that the irritating Haunter was dead, which was wonderful news. He smiled to himself, petting Hands. Only one of the Dawn was dead, yes, but if it only took a ghost to kill them... And the children, they were a weakness to be exploited. They needed to capture the children. Who among the Dusk would be willing, though?
He hissed to get the attention of the army, then asked in a commanding tone, "Whhho among you is willing to particccipate in an extremely dangerousss sstealth misssion?" he asked, looking for the best of the best.

Summer ((Who I had no idea what to do with)) sat down within eyeshot of the cave, by the stream. She smiled at Sosa. "I think I'm going to stay here for a while. You can stay if you want, or go back to the cave. If you do, tell me what's been going on." She lied down on her stomach, draping a paw into the water.

[Azunara]

((Sol and Cro both would like to tell Scarab to bring it. They will tear anything they throw at him apart.))

Kiren brightened, and despite her minor wounds, said, "I volunteer!"

[Lupis]

((Scarab would like Sol and Cro to know that he could give a crap what shape his minions come back in, or for that matter if they come back at all. As long as they do some damage, he says, then it's his victory.))

Scarab eyed Kiren, then nodded. "You will need at leassst one other to help."

[Kira]

Sosa glanced at Summer and nodded, moving toward the cave. He would find out what was going on, then go back to tell her. Hopefully he could get her somethign to eat as well.

Ikis sighed as he heard Scarab speak, his head tilting back for a moment. He was Bored here, and while he Hated to almost get his butt handed to him...to hell with it. "I'll go." He nearly growled it out, his arms crossing instead.

[Lupis]

Scarab nodded, and spoke to them. "Ssstealth is of highest importanccce, undersstood? The children are the Dawn'sss weaknesss. Capture one of them, and get out before the missssion iss jeopardized."

[rubybeam]

Quest ran up to the group "Wait...I want to join to!" the hybrid smiled, happy to get a chance to obtain a free snack if scarab allowed him

[Kira]

Ikis blinked slowly before he nodded. It didn't make sense to get just one though, grabbing as many as the could made more sense to him. But whatever. He wasn't in charge. His tail flicked as he itched to get moving.
