Rise of the Shadows!

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost sighed, nuzzling Julius to try and comfort him. "Come on.. We can't give up this easily.. That's what the Dusk are expecting us to do. If we fight back like freakin' hell, we might be able to surprise them enough to gain the upper hand for at least a little bit. Even if there is no chance of survival.. We can't just DIE. We have to fight back! Hell, I don't care if everyone else doesn't want to, but there's no way I'm going down without a fight."

"Possibly. .... Okay, actually, a bit of healing would be nice. Giant plant monsters hurt." Phantom replied, letting out a laugh.

[Magnakilro]

Chomp thought for a moment.

"Are there any underground tunnels or hideouts for the young and the non-fighters to hide in?"

[rubybeam]

"Unfortantly no" cherries ears bent back "plus that seems the oldest trick in the book"

A familar zaebra soon entered camp still looking quite sad at what she had done she expected to see stares at her coming from all directions hostility even

[Kamalia]

((I actually have no idea whatsoever how the Dawn/Sunrise are going to pull this off. I'm looking at this and pretty much going "Yup, they're screwed." ))

Julius frowned a bit at Cherrie's words. That must be awful, not being able to remember anything but your name... He was quiet for a moment as he listened to Ghost's words. "...You're right." He offered her a half-hearted smile. "Go out with a bang? Sounds like an okay plan to me, so long as I get to fight alongside my big sister." He gave her an affectionate headbutt.

[Senna-Umbreon]

((My thoughts exactly. It's gonna take a miracle for them to survive >.>))

Ghost grinned, "It'll take a lot more than just some stupid evolved Dusk to take us down!"

((... I love the fact that my and Ghost's comments just contradicted each other XD))

[Magnakilro]

Arachne looked at Thunder, "Hello there"

[rubybeam]

((Well the only thing I can think of is get the dusk to mess up somehow..))

Thunder looked over at arachne "hi." she was ready in case arachne went and attacked her

Suddenly a splash of water hit the sunrise camp appering to have a swampert riding it, a breloom and shiftry also riding ontop of the swampert, a swellow flying over them with a solrock following it "How come we always surf travel our way around" the solrock whined trying to avoid any flying water

((You should reconize these guys which appered near the end of wod...they'll always apper in the end no matter what for me anyhow))

[Magnakilro]

Arachne walked over to Thunder, "I see you aren't Dusk anymore..."

[Moonlost]

((Well, this is why Baaz wanted to have a few legendaries about to help XD ))

"Here then." Venin moved over to phantom, laying over his shoulders and covering the both of them with a cool, healing veil or water.

Venin used Aqua Ring!

"Hopefully you'll be feeling like your fuzzy self soon." She grinned. "... How screwed do you think we are?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Calypso floated up to Thunder, "Well, here we are... I'm gonna go see if my friends are here.. Okay?" And without waiting for an answer, she floated off.

((Yes. The rest of my Unova Pokemon have fallen off the face of the earth. Fixing that.. NOW!))

Stormie sighed, pacing back and forth. That 'meeting' hadn't gone well, that was for sure. Eventually, she sat down, glancing up as a blurr of purple zoomed past her. "The heck?" She blinked, seeing that Maya was floating around erratically, shrieking things about how they were going to die and how they'd have to fight Calypso and many other things that had to do with dying, murdering and ripping peoples' throats out.

Lyell walked over to Stormie, who looked up at him questioningly. "Err.. I think Maya's gone off the deep end. One second she was just muttering something about the Dusk.. And the next she's absolutely hystarical." He explained, sighing.

"Um, guys?" Hannibal said, glancing back at Lyell and Stormie.

"Not now, Hannibal." Stormie replied.

"But.."

"I said not now!"

"WE'REGONNADIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Maya screeched as she frantically floated around in the air.

"Guys.... Look!!" The electric spider persisted, getting slightly annoyed over being ignored.

"AGGHHHTHEY'LLKILLUSALLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Guys..."

"RIPOURTHROATSOUT!!!!"

"GUYS!!"

"ANDWE'LLHAVETOFIGHTCALY!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"GUYS!!!!" Hannibal finally yelled, his fur floofing up with electricity.

Both Stormie and Lyell blinked, while Maya stopped floating and just stared at the spider.

"Look!!!" Hannibal said, pointing towards a Desukan that was floating nearby.

"CALYPSO!!" Stormie and Lyell both cheered at the same time.

"CALYPSOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Maya shrieked in delight, floating over to the other Ghost type, who smiled at her, "Hi Maya. It's good to see that you guys are okay..."

((Maya is insane when she gets upset. But hey, she and Calypso are pretty much sisters, so of course she'd freak out over something like this.))

"I'd say... Pretty damn screwed." Phantom replied, grinning slightly, "I'm starting to think that life hates us or something."

[Magnakilro]

Chomp then got an idea, "Wait...why don't we hide them where we've been hiding the children? I'm sure Cameo and Hail won't mind!"

[Azunara]

((Actually, in the end, Lupis and I were thinking somehow the crystals come together and there's a mass cure. Cause in the end, despite the odds, the Dusk have to lose. There's a lot more Dawn PCs then Dusk PCs, and if the Dusk win, that pretty much means killing all of your guys characters...which boils down to a rather unfun ending for you guys. Meaning the Dusk will lose.

So yeah, in the end after the Dusk wreak some havoc, the crystals will eventually come together. So you all will live! Unless you decide to kill off your character. In other news though, a looser, but still there sequel occurred to me, if we wish to carry on and start up a new one. Up to you all though.))

Solara stood lashed her tail, impatient. She had had enough. She was tired of spies and traitors. Of how they lied. Dredged up memories she didn't want to remmeber. Low blows. They said they were better? That they weren't as 'bad' as the Dusk? She snarled at that. They could be "better" all they wanted. Soon, they'd be dead. She dug her claws into the earth, gouging rip marks into them.

[Moonlost]

((That... makes sense, at least to me. I'm all for that plan, even though it almost feels like cheating you tellign us about it. Although it leaves a few loose ties, specifically a certain scientist, still back in the city.
And speaking of sequels, I've been thinking about it too. I have an idea, although it'd be very different to this, and the previous, RP mood-wise. Although I'm interested to hear what you're thinking of Azu. As you said though, it depends on how other people feel about it.))

Baaz thought about it, then nodded. "Sounds like a good plan. Perhaps we could get some of our Psychics to teleport them there?"

~

Venin sighed, closing her eyes. She desperately wanted to sleep... But knew she couldn't.
"Well, think of it this way. Life couldn't send much worse than this at us. If we survive this, we'll know nothing can stop us." She licked the back of his neck. "Not lightning puppy nor hateflled siblings."

[Azunara]

((*looks around shiftily.* Cheating? Nah. And it's just the direction that makes the most sense. If anyone can think of an end, that's fine. I just think the above is the one that will end that works for mostly everyone. Cause yeah. If the Dusk win, Dawn are dead. If the Dawn/Sunrise win, the Dusk still have a chance of survival and redemption. Really though. If anyone else has an idea for an ending, feel free to shout out.

And Moon, I'm all for a sequel, so you at least have my vote.))

[Moonlost]

((Well, here's a quick version of it, as to not wall-o-text the RP with OOCness:
Set a few years in the future, humanity has only just started to settle into normalicy again. However, now that they don't have the big things to worry about, people have started to panic over the few remaining leftovers of the Dusk; pokemon and humans that still have obvious signs of their infection/experimentation. This fear leads to the forming of an organisation known as E.D.E.C.T (Experimental Dusk Elimination and Containment Troop), a specialised pseudo-military group bent on wiping out the Dusk remnants once and for all. Some people in E.D.E.C.T wish to find some sort of cure for the abnomalities, others wish to eradicate them once and for all. Likewise, many of the Dusk-Scarred (for a lack of a better name) have different opinions of what to do. Some wish to find their own home away from the fighting, others seek revenge for fallen friends. Yet more hide in the shadows, hunted but unwilling to attack or flee.
Hopefully this idea allows for a few fresh new characters for either side (plus a few neutral or sympathetic to the Dusk-Scarred's plight), along with allowing for a few old characters to make a return. And hopefully some interesting situations to boot.
... That ended up much longer than I expected. XD Let me know what you guys think. Don't pull any punches, if you don't like the idea let me know, more than happy to see some other RP ideas bounced about.
*Hopes idea hasn't just killed thread*))

[rubybeam]

Thunder nodded slowly, she wasn't attacking that was good


((Well early it did also say that the peejhu while in it's psychic form before dieing sent a message to another nereby creation, so if we need we can also have an army of dr.zyhnes creations come to help with the crystals))

[Lupis]

((I think the mass of the Dusk will slow down a bit (A lot) when cured - and, well, um. So, here's the deal. I was thinking, the Dusk began to get stronger when under Scarab's rule. So, I was thinking that perhaps the Dusk Voices kind of tied in with Scarab's intents. The more mindless Dusk, those who are completely driven by the voices, would basically act on Scarab's unspoken will. So if he were to suddenly.. not be there, that means there's a lot of Dusk who just sit there going "Wut?" until they wander away.
Just a random thought I had! Opinions?
Also, yes, the Crystals are VERY important here. Like, you freakin' better get the Crystals. That's why I left Carrion back in the city with only a few guards. xD))

[rubybeam]

((Ey so random messanger that will attack carrion and vult in 3....2......1))

A small creature much like kanmimpis messenger seemed to run right towards carrion and vulture it had a small horn on it's head with two huge eyes, it's arms were like barbed scythes and it also seemed to have a pair of smallish human arms made of the shadow (much like desukaans I know), the crystal seemed to come back to life once again trying to escape carrions grasp to get the the creature

[Azunara]

((Yeah, I can see that Lupis. It really was Scarab that kept the Dusk unified. Otherwise, they're going to go back to being feral and turn and tear each other part, because they don't have drive anymore. That's pretty much how I've seen the Dusk. Powerful, but they need direction or they're just scattered pockets of feral pokemon.))

Solara lashed her tail, impatiently. She wanted to strike before they could prepare, and she growled quietly. The forced nightfall had been scattered by her sunlight.

[Lupis]

Carrion held the Crystal tightly in his arms, growling. "What- GHOSTS! Attack!"
Several ghost types un-faded, floating towards the messenger.
Desukan uses Night Shade!
Dusclops uses Shadow Ball!
Misdeavus uses Shadow Claw!

Scarab looked over his troops, then nodded once. Raising his head, he let out an ear-splitting screech, and the Dusk moved forward. The attack had begun.
"Find their leadersss and take them out. Sssunrise firssst, then Dawn."
