Rise of the Shadows!

[Azunara]

Aurora seemed unperturbed by Soundwave, and assured he wasn't about to die, skittered off with a grin. She iced a patch of the ground and slid along it, content.

---

Solara nodded, closing her eyes as she felt the needle go in. Three, two- She thought, interrupted by the waves of pain before she could even finish counting. She hissed savagely, trying not to yowl in pain. It was, if possible, worse than before. She locked her muscles, struggling to remain upright as she evolved. She glowed, then...seemed to fade out, flickering rather ghost-like. She was definitely translucent, at least. Her ears tapered, growing thinner and longer, though her torn ear remained unaffected still. She grew bulkier, less lithe and looking more powerful, as well as growing in side. Not as big as Confusion or Buzzard, but definitely bigger.

Lavender stripes laced across her fur, though they showed starkly on her now blue underbelly, inside of her legs and paw pads. Her feathery ruff from before faded around her neck, though the fur around her face grew into blue tufts around her face, forming a ruff there. She had blue brow markings now as well, and her eyes glowed dimly. Her tail remained rather as was, albeit striped. The gems hovered nearby the split endings, and the gem above her forehead remained as well.

Finally, with a hiss of pain, she returned to normal solidity, still barely standing, looking ready to fall over. She finally allowed herself a screech of pain as she shifted to her solid self, panting as the evolution finished.

Solara has evolved into a Psyceon!

She panted, giving herself a weak shake. "Ow..." She muttered under her breath, pain replaced by exhaustion. At least that was easily taken care of.

[Lupis]

Insins let Solara out of the cell and looked out towards Buzzard, who was sticking his head in the door of the lab and looking concerned. At the scientist's look, the Charaptor gave the room a speculative look and held out his wings. The room was too small. Sighing, Insins exited the lab and injected the Charaptor once he was out of attacking distance of anyone.

The Charaptor closed his wings tightly around his body as he was injected, preparing himself for the pain. He could tell this was going to hurt..
The flame on his tail and back flared, flowering out to encompass his entire body. He was used to the feel of that flame, but now for some reason it hurt. He growled loudly, flaring his wings. Again he grew in size, his body shape changing as he thickened and became more like a tyrannosaurus rex. His arms got slightly stronger, the raptor claws on his feet staying but growing larger, his horns curving up and inwards to meet and create a sort of "crown". The spines on his wings multiplied, several spines growing out of each wing. His scales turned a mottled grey, the skin around each scale turning bright, slightly glowing orange. Finally, the fire on his tail and back grew up his neck and formed a burning orb hovering directly above the "crown" of horns.
The fire over his body died down and he shook his head. Ow. He felt like he was burning on the inside. Letting out a pent-up breath, he was surprised to see it come out as a plume of glorious fire. Well. He'd have to be careful with that...

Buzzard has evolved into Charosaurus!

((Deathwing isn't impacting this design at ALL... I want to draw him now.))

[Azunara]

((Hehe!))

Solara shook herself, still a bit tired. Nonetheless, once Buzzard's evolution as over, she padded over, head tilted. "You know," She said, giving a slight grin, "I am really glad I'm on your side. Wouldn't want to face you in a battle." She used energy to cause the sun to glow brighter, basking in the warmth to chase away the exhaustion.

Solara used Sunny Day!
Solara used Morning Sun!

[Lupis]

Buzzard stretched, shaking his head and rattling his wings. "That one hurt a bit.... lot more. Urgh, I feel like my guts are on fire! Not exactly a bad feeling, but it'll take a while to get used to..." He craned his neck to look at himself. "Well. Won't be able to carry anyone around on my back, unless they like being carried in my arms."
He looked around. "How is everyone else?"

[Azunara]

((And...out for the night. Mmm. Sleep.))

Solara replied, "Confusion seems pretty good. Taia looked exhausted. I'll be fine as long as the sun sticks around for energy. And I agree with you on that. That last one hurt a bit more than I expected."

[rubybeam]

"Actually I feel great, reallyonly I don't actually want any tea at the moment ignore the other head i'm still thinking of a name for it"
"My gender is not a it and I am perfectly manily thank you very much. my name is confusion" the real confusion sighed "This is really going to need some time to get used to"

[Kamalia]

Taia had stumbled over to a corner and laid down, seemingly unperturbed by the painful sounds made by Solara and Buzzard as they evolved. She managed to open her eyes and study their new forms for a moment before closing them again. She was well prepared for a long, recuperative rest. She let out a heaving sigh, stretching her new and sore muscles before curling into a ball and falling fast asleep.

[Azunara]

Solara tilted her head again at Confusion, unsure of what to actually make of it. She ignored Taia, though she grinned mentally. Thing was wiped out. Sure, she was tired too...but she'd recover a lot faster. It was a small satisfaction, but it made her pleased. She then looked at Confusion again, adding, "Either way....You sure to spook a few Dawn and Sunrise." She grinned, tail flicking.

[rubybeam]

Confusion smiled rather proud of her new power "You look preatty scary yourself"



((EDIT: I went and brewed up a plan to put some action in te rp if anyone would like that, for the sunrise and dawn at least))

[Azunara]

Solara brightened, looking rather proud as well. She seemed pleased enough with her new evolution, reveling in even more power. Let them come. Let the Dawn throw whatever they could at her. She'd destroy them all.

[Moonlost]

((I say go for it Ruby, the Dawn/Sunrise are due for some much needed action.))

Just as quickly as it happened, Seventeen rose up to her feet and barked at Gamin, eager to return to the hunt. Gamin understood, business before pleasure, although he would have enjoyed some more time to explore these new feelings somewhat. Still, he wanted to kill those two eeveelutions just as much as she did. He rolled over and rose up, shaking his fur before sniffing the ground once again. The scent was faint, but it definately lead away from the area.
"Here." He called out. Seventeen padded over to sniff it herself, walking ahead a few steps. She barked at him again then started to trot, following the scent trail carefully.

Baaz jolted awake. He'd somehow fallen asleep, although with this warm sun beating down on him, he could imagine why. He wanted to remain here forever, to just let the sun soak into his fur, with his love beside him. But duty called, he needed to get back to the camp and get the ball rolling once more.
He flicked his head over to Lilith to nuzzle her. "We should probably return, lest our companions beleve we deserted." He chuckled.

~

((Why no, I didn't forget about Holly and her cake. What makes you say that? >.>))
"So, who're we gonna share the cake with?" Holly said, still bouncing up and down. "I think it's a bit much for just the four of us!"

~

Insins watched his new creations musing. It was interesting to see just how far one pokemon could go down the evolutionary line... but there were too few.
"Kabutops," He said. "I must ask, why are we keeping our sample range so small? You seem to be placing all your eggs in one basket, so to speak." He stopped for a minute to push up his glasses, old and slightly cracked as they were. "Your new gods are few. If one is somehow killed or converted, you've just lost a significant amount of your power."

Olga sighed, finding a stone to sit on. Shyra moved over to place her beak on the old woman's shoulder.
"Do you think we should go in there, see how the young dragon is going?" Olga asked.
We would be but distractions. The Xatu responded calmly.
"I suppose." Olga sighed. "If he takes much longer though, I wouldn't mind taking a peek, make sure he's safe."
The bird chirped in response. It was as much of an agreement as she'd get from her companion.

[rubybeam]

The cusera that was following buzzard around wandered to dr.insins sniffing him curiously just it did buzzard it's button eyes gleaming with curiousity

[Magnakilro]

((Oh right....I'm in an RP....totally knew that!))

Lilith nodded. She licked baaz as she stood up and began heading to the camp.

[Azunara]

((Heh. I've more or less forgotten poor Cro. Let me fix that.))

Cro sighed, looking at each tablet that belonged to the legendaries. The feelings of foreboding were worse. The pillars were cracked, poorly repaired from some large prior battle. There were bloodstained, and obvious evidence of corpses, judging by the skeletons. Large blood splatters and scorch marks concentrated in one area, but whatever corpse had been there had been long since removed.

The Lord of Time carefully, thoughtfully made his way around the circle. Mewtwo...Mew...Lugia...Jumping over to Moltres, Articuno and Zapdos...Over there were Uxie, Mespirit and Azelf, and close by, the symbol of Palkia and another symbol. Cro shook himself, giving a quiet, worried whine. He paused, unsure of what to do with the circle. It was close to where some corpse had been, a large one. Something bad happened here...

Carefully, he stood closer to the symbol of Dialga, and recoiled as something triggered within the past...Memories.

Him. Or past him. Trapped, in pain, so much pain. Surrounded by dark pokemon, all closing in. Palkia too far away to help him, and the Lord of Space sustained too many injuries of his own. Himself, calling, warning, informing the Lord of Space to flee. A large attack of some sorts, flame and ice raining down, pricking him, stabbing his numb body. Collapsing. Unable to move. Darkness.

And then voices. Energy pulsing. Roars of anger and movement, and the Dark pokemon held at bay as one of his companions, an enemy so long ago held them at bay. A message. A location. An egg. And then time, slowing, dying, fading. Pauses of sharp, stark dark as time started to cease to exist. Gratitude...And then dark. Time gone. Nothingness. Followed by hatching, cracking, air, life, light. Red. Teal.

Family.

Cro snarled, leaping away from the circle, shaking his head. No. No, it had to be a lie. He couldn't be, wasn't the Lord of Time. Impossible...Couldn't happen...So why had he seen himself die, then come alive again? That was the Darkness before. His own demise. His past self's demise. He whined softly. He wasn't cut out for this. If the older self couldn't fight the Dusk, how could he?

[Kamalia]

((Poor Cro. D:))

We've got a lot of friends who would enjoy a piece, really. Molly, having already polished off her slice, grinned as she licked remnants of frosting and crumbs off of her fingers. I know who we could start with. I know a Blaziken who's got a sweet tooth and her Garchomp friend would certainly enjoy it, too.

[Lupis]

((I'll post tomorrow... Tonight I had too much homework and too little time, now I just want to do something brainless. Ruby, I very much approve of any sort of idea for conflicts.))

[Azunara]

((Well of course I'll mess with Cro. I haven't had a good day until I screwed with my characters. >.>

Also out for the night. I need more sleep. Luckily, I get winter break on Friday, so I'll be able to stay up later and not be zombie-Azu for class.))

[rubybeam]

Victini watched the crowd of other victini's playing she frowned. she knew what was coming and it was going to happen once again. She watched as they stampeded towards her hearing the voices yelling as they came

Victini 567 Come play with us!

Your too awesome for words!

What are you doing alone! were all your friends!

sometimes being the popular one sucked. Why were the 'losers' sad all time anyway, the questions floated in her mind nbot realising that all the victini's tackled her in wanting to play "Can we play later? I really don't feel like it right now.."
"No! but you have to play now with us!"
one of the victini's stood out over all others putting it's small fists on it's hips "Victini 567 is right! I don't wanna play either!" the swarm begain to copy going beside victini and agreeing
she just wanted to be alone.
and that was the last straw. spreading her wings she flew off, landing near a tree
It was a couple hours later when a shimama arrvied it had a content grin on it's face "And you are"
Victini scowled "You just another one of those mindless morons who have no hope and just want to be popular?"
"Huuuuuuuuhhhhh? what!?"
victini stared the the sudden shimama "You just want to be friends because i'm the popular one right?"
"No..I don't care if you're popular or not, legendary or not I just want to play with you!" victini gave a small smile "Name?"
"Thunder, your name's victini let me guess"
victini gave a smallish giggle


She wished it was that time again. it was only a dream a memory, in her mind she grashed the dreams warm feelings watching it with a sense of warmth.
In the real world her body grew more cold, her heatbeat slower than before the colour in her fur was fading and her body grew limp.
Victini was dieing.


((No that wasn't the big plan we'll get to it very soon))

[Azunara]

((*cackles.* Should be awesome. Just waiting for the right people to get about. >:)))

Solara flicked her tail, and after a bit in the warm sun, felt back to normal. She shook herself once more, satisfied with her new form. She wasn't quite used to being so big. Her build had changed from a lithe feline to more tigerlike. Still, she had power. The psyceon gave a wicked grin, pleased.

[Magnakilro]

Soundwave flew back to his treehole. Tears began flowing down his face, "Sol..."
