Rise of the Shadows!

[Magnakilro]

Jaws looked at the Sandshrew, then Olivia, then the Sandshrew again, ".....uhhhh...."

[Moonlost]

Baaz smiles softly at Lilith as he watched her move. His ears pricked up at the clamor in the distance. He didn't like the sounds of it, he could pick out Solara's voice, although he couldn't make out the words. He turned to Lilith.
"Shall we investigate this, or let the others take care of it?" He asked.

[Azunara]

Solara blinked, hissing. Sunrise. She tended to forget about them, despite their hesitant alliance. They had been a threat, and she had treated them as such. Finally, she gave a savage snarl, claws slicing the ground. Fine. She'd take care of it when they came to it, but if she had to kill the bird to get to Scarab, then that was okay in her book.

She didn't know much what else to say, and growled. She didn't want to go back to the cave, then she'd have to deal with Ghost, and staying here with the stupid bird wasn't an option. She stalked into the forest, ears pricking as she heard Soundwave.

[Magnakilro]

"I smell the owl.....sounds like Solara is angry...." Lilith replied.

Soundwave flew after Solara, "Sol wait!"

[Lupis]

Hands glared after Sol as she left, remembering why she hated Dawn. She didn't really want to stay with them any longer, but there was nowhere else to go. Hissing to herself, she fluffed out her feathers and lied down, glaring at the horizon.

Summer smiled. "Then maybe after we get something to eat, you can sing for me. But for now, I'm hungry."

Vulture watched Seventeen warily, wondering if she would try to get up.

[Kira]

Sosa let out another laugh as he stood up. "Let's get you food then."

[Azunara]

Solara lashed her tail, hissing. She knew the Dusk weren't exactly...sane...but that wasn't an excuse for supporting the destruction of innocent families. A small voice happened to point out that it was likely the Dusk had families within their army, and that she had killed plenty of Dusk. And plenty of families. This only served to frustrate the espeon more.

[Magnakilro]

Soundwave caught up to Solara, "Sol...are you ok?" a stuupid question to ask, but it was the first thing that came to mind.

[Azunara]

Solara shook her head, "No. Half the time, I don't know what to think. We're doing the right thing, fighting the Dusk, and then I remember that they may have taken a few lives, but I've taken multiple as well. They took families apart, but I did too. So who's right?"

[Magnakilro]

Soundwave sighed, "....honestly....I think all sides involved in this war are in the wrong..."

[Azunara]

Solara nodded slightly, "It'd be a lot easier if it would just end." She sighed, "After all of this, and remembering the war against Deoxys...These days, I can see the angle he was coming from. There are a lot of bad humans out there. Those humans caused all of this Dusk mess, and then expected someone else to clean it up. We've all kind of bitten off more than we can chew."

She sighed, studying her claws. "I don't think there'd be a peaceful end to this, either...They're bent on destruction and we have to defend ourselves."

[Magnakilro]

Soundwave laid a wing on her, "Its unfortunate....but sometimes....its our only option..."

[Magnakilro]

Jaws looked around, "...uhmmm...where'd this sandshrew come from?"

[Azunara]

Stupid bird. Stupid Dusk. They shouldn't get to her so easily yet they did. She had a sinking suspicion that cured or not, she'd always be Dusk-like. They had done bad things to her, and now she got to suffer for it. With a growl, she shook herself, deciding that the best bet would be to carry on. She'd keep fighting. Not like she had a choice.

"Do you think there are any other non-Infected out there, beside us and the Sunrise? Or are we the only ones left? It scares me a bit, to think about what would happen if the Dawn fell. Sure, the Sunrise would still be alive, but they'd be overwhelmed too." Solara asked, sounding subdued.

((Out for the night to sleep. Yay. School tomorrow and two more teeth pulled Tuesday....Ew. I hate Novocaine. So much. D:))

[Moonlost]

Baaz listened with his ears pricked up. Things seemed to have settled down, perhaps it was best to leave the others to their own musings.
"I am sorry for that," He said to Lilith "I wanted to make sure a fight wasn't happening." Urg, he felt stiff and unexciting. He needed to do something fun. "Say, I know of a stream to the east. If you are there at the right time of day, it seems as if the sun is dancing on it's surface." He grinned. "Would you like to see it by any chance?"

[Kamalia]

((ARGGGH sorry for falling off of the face of the earth AGAIN. I'm back at home now, so I'll probably have some more time for RP, heh.))

Olivia stirred. She blinked sleepily and looked up at Jaws. She blinked again at his expression, then registered the feeling of something round and hard pressed against her. She jolted upright with a squeaking noise, preparing herself to see an orange and blue egg. She gasped several times and relaxed slightly as she saw it was only a Sandshrew. "Ohh... hooooo... I - I thought that was a... um, well." She cleared her throat, trying to get her breathing back to normal. "Seems like we've got a little intruder!" She chuckled slightly before giving the Sandshrew a little prod. "Hello?"

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys snickered at Olivia's reaction, he whispered to Ciro, "It worked perfectly!"

Jaws poked the sandshrew, "Hey kid!"

------

Soundwave nodded, "I'm sure there are....not many but there are...."

-----

Lilith smiled, "That sounds beautiful....sure let's go!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Hurrr, I slept for a whiiiiile. Got up at 2 AM XD Anywho... ... .... ....... ............... I am really tempted to have Ghost go on the fritz again due to her still being infected XD))

Ghost glared up at the ceiling of the cave absently. After a while, she started growling, then stood up, fading, and crept out of the cave.

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull slept, curled around Rust, unaware of Ghost leaving.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((*Grins maniacally* ... I REALLY should not be listening to slightly creepy Japanese music. It makes me go kinda crazy. XD))

Ghost un-faded as soon as she was far enough away from the cave to go unoticed. Stifling the urge to glance backwards, she broke into a run and sped away from the cave, the voices cheering her on as she went.
