((Mrrrg. I had to sleep for a while. Back now. I can stay up late... No school tomorrow. HUGE blizzard coming in.))

Lark tilted her head. She hadn't heard any stories. "Soultakers?" she asked, frowning. "What are those? Obviously bad, judging by how flustered you are."

Baaz sat down, thinking as how to quickly explain the stories to Lark. "To abridge the tale a little, legend says that there was once a large civilisation of humans who could tear souls out of living bodies and use them to fuel magic. One day, one of their own rebeled againt them, finding the idea of this abhorant. He created the first ties between us pokemon and humans, we combined our efforts for the first time to overthrow the Soultakers. Apparently, they found some way to survive." He shook his head, he knew he sounded insane. But there was no way Soren was wrong.

Lark frowned. Well, it sounded completely insane. "If it wasn't you talking, I'd pass you off as a nut," she warned. "As it is you talking, I'll try to wrap my mind around it. So they're coming back? Something we can do about it, or should we start screaming and running around in a chaos now?" she asked, knowing that people would do that no matter what.

Deppy frowned "Thats sad to know..If I lead my own pride I would send out a search party! the spirit is a pericous companion after all"

Arkon sat silently as Baaz spoke, his tail lashing behind him. He let out a little whimper as he looked up at the Arcanine. "Are you leaving then...? I mean, that's the only reason you'd be running out here..unless something is happening nearby."

((Forgot Summer. >.<))

Summer nodded. "Where are you from? I've not seen your sort around. Not for years, anyway, and that was a special situation."

((I LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!! *Flails*))

Ghost pricked her ears as the message reached her. "O-Okay.. I'll try and find him. Don't you DARE die before I get there and save you, okay?" She replied, letting out a quiet whine. Steeling herself, she continued to trudge forward, now intent on finding whoever this person who might help her was.

"'Bout time we got here." Phantom said, keeping pace beside Venin. "Heh, yeah. Knowing Ghost, she might do that, but oh well."

Darkrai sighed, reclining against a tree.
''Shall we join the search, Solara?'', he asked, eager to do something.

"My contact, a former part of the resistance, told me to gather up the weapons the Soltakers used. Use them against them as it were." Baaz said, sighing and shaking his head. "I can't just sit by while these monsters return. We've been given an early warning, we need to capitalise on that."
The Arcanine looked up at them, eyes grave. "I'm off to the House to warn the others, to see if we can rally together and nip this in the bud."

Venin grinned at her mate before starting down on the path down. She hoped that they didn't make the trip for nothing.
Asher looked up over his father's shoulder over at the house, his tail wagging. He always thought it was strange that the pokemon there lived in a human house, but it was nice enough he supposed. He did liek the big fluffy cushions they had in there. Those were fun to pounce on, and were nice for sleeping too.

Solara nodded, "Might as well. Where do we look first?"

---

A few of the Dusk had been listening from outside, or at least the flying types had. The ghost types had crept in, trying not to be noticed by the massive amounts of people. They quietly mentally relayed the most important information to Darkrai, Buzzard, and Sol. They were after the same thing as them, making up another stupid story to justify themselves, but more importantly, they were on the move. Planned to start fighting soon.

They began to quietly move away before they could be smelled out.

Kerym offered no reply to Ghost, but was still deeply satisfied. Easy.

---

Ivika nodded, "I'd like to know what happened to her, too...I was kind of making my way to this really big group of pokemon I smelled. I figure they had food I can steal or something. She shrugged. "And information, I suppose."

"I don't remebered I think mother was there once when I hatched..but then it was just cold everyone tried to hurt me even the humans tried to catch me with these strange round things" yuki answered, not really sad at the moment due to being used to this kind of life
----------------------

"Foods everywhere you just need to use something other than sight" deppy sniffed the air trying to catch the scent Ivika did "We should head there, good start for information"

Lark nodded. "If you run off, we'll warn the house. I guess we'll help, if Arkon wants to go to." She shook new snow off her fur, frowning at her plain brown fur. She wondered how long it would be until she evolved. Maybe the Absol part was keeping her back? That was a new thought. What if she couldn't evolve because of it?

Summer nodded at Yuki. "Those are Pokéballs. Avoid them... If they catch you, then they twist you around and keep you prisoner." She paused, tilting her head at Yuki. "I'm sorry everyone was trying to hurt you. That won't happen here, don't worry." She gave him a sort of sideways look. "...Even if you look like one of our old enemies."

Darkrai turned to the Unown, poking it. It hovered back a little distance, communicating with it's peers. It hovered back down after a few seconds.
"We might have something, yes.", it started. "Round, obsidian object with a reflective surface composed of silver and crystallized sand in the middle?"
"Sounds like it.", Darkrai replied. "Where is it?"
"It's described in some old Unown ruins.", the Unown replied. "No location is mentioned, though there are a few puzzles, as always with the old ruins. You might be able to find a hint or something underneath."

Arkon nodded, his tail beginning to flick again. "I want to go help." He felt like he didn't do enough around here, and helping with something like that...it'd definatly make up for it! That and Baaz had always been the one he went to for support.

Lark nodded at Arkon, turning her head to Baaz. "We'll both help then."

((Sorry if this is a little poorer quality than my normal posts. I'm feeling dead tired & unwell. D: ))

Baaz nodded with a smile. He'd secretly been hoping the two would like to join him, he saw a lot of potentual in them.
"I would be glad to have you two along, although make sure your parents know you'll be coming." He told them. "We'll all head back, no use splitting up. That and hopefully three voices will be enough to convince anyone that we're not ravening lunatics." He chuckled a little.

((S'okay Moon! Your "bad" posts are better than any of mine.))

Lark nodded, secretly noting that she wasn't going to be telling her mother anything. She'd get too protective and refuse. Besides, she wandered often. Summer wouldn't suspect much. Now, Sosa, that was a little different, but she'd live with the consequences. "They trust you not to be insane, for better or for worse," she responded. "As do I, though Soultakers was a little shaky. You seem adamant, though."

((Stupid frikking school. Stupid people. Stupid gym teacher. Braces tomorrow, I'll be on more often, likely. If I don't hurt too much.))

Solara shrugged, "Good a place as any to start, if you ask me."

---

Ivika nodded, "Right. To...the scent, I suppose." She led the way, seeming much more content and happy now that she had food. She peered at the house she saw in the distance, looking at it. "Huh."

''Teleportation in 3... 2... 1...'', the Unown started, quickly moving them to the temple.

((Anyone who wanted to join them feel free to come.))

Before the group stood a mostly ruined temple building, small etchings of Unown covering the walls on the inside.

Buzzard looked to the side, and moved forward quickly to join in the teleportation. He wanted to see this...
He looked around the temple, frowning at the carvings.
