Rise of the Shadows!

[Magnakilro]

Chomp sighed, "....I'm worried about Rocket....even in that hiding spot...she's still not safe at all...."

[rubybeam]

The marshtop soon reached the camp where chomp and the others were slowly heading to the kelspy pile trying get there without people nodiceing

[Magnakilro]

Lilith sniffed and looked over, "Can we help you?" she said to the Marshtomp.

[Azunara]

Solara nodded, leaping up and following Ghost to find Summer.

---

Speck said quietly, "They keep taunting me. Saying I'm weak. That I should've stayed in that stupid lab so long ago..."

[rubybeam]

The marshtop immdeatly stopped "Err yeah do you mind If I have one of those kelpsy berries please?" he scratched the back of his head putting the pachirisu on the ground

[Saturo]

"Okay, two bags of cookies, seven chocolate bars, a lifetime of free internet, and all the books you can carry. Deal?"
"Hmm... You make an interesting offer... Maybe if you spiced it up a little..."
"With WHAT!? We can hardly afford all that!"
"Free pizza would be fine."
"*Groan* Fine. You get two bags of cookies, seven chocolate bars, a lifetime of free internet, all the books you can carry and free pizza. Is THAT enough!?"
"Maybe... Let me think about your offer for a bit first..."

[Magnakilro]

Lilith nodded, "eat as many as you want...just save some for us...." she said with a chuckle.

[Senna-Umbreon]

"As much as I hate to admit it... You're right... She's still in danger..." Rikki whimpered slightly.

----

"Hmmm.. I think she went this way!" Ghost announced, following Summer's scent trail down to the river. She grinned as she spotted the Glaceon, "Hey Summer!!" She called, running over to her.

[rubybeam]

The marshtop smiled taking a few, he then tried to somehow get the pachrisu to eat one "Cmon Cmon..where the hell is rosette when you need her?"

[Kamalia]

The Buizel's nose screwed up. "Those guys are jerks. HEY, VOICES! LEAVE SPECK ALONE OR I SWEAR I WILL USE THE NACHO CHEESE JOKE!" He bellowed into where he believed Speck's ear would be. He glanced behind him. "Take 'em all if you want! They taste awful! Sour and it feels like they take all of the moisture out of your mouth, they're so dry. Yuck."

[Saturo]

The Illusionary Steelix disappeared, the spell that had summoned it ending. It winked at Resith, and spoke:
"See ya later, babe!", in a very seductive voice.

[Azunara]

Speck grinned. The Voices weren't exactly...impressed, but they left the Haunter alone. Speck beamed, "Thanks!" She said, feeling better already. "Take THAT, stupid voices. You're just jealous I have awesome friends keeping an eye out for me." She informed them.

---

Solara grinned, "Hi, Summer!"

[rubybeam]

Resith couldn't help but swoon even his voice was sexy! "Bye sexy!~" she stated

The marshtop looked over at lilith "Excuse me? but do you know anything helping a fainted pokemon bringing back to up health and such?"

[Lupis]

Scarab nodded. "Two lossesss. Nothing worrissssome. Well, then, I believe we will be ready as sssoon as I am back to full hhealth. Find the Butterfree and bring it to me. Itsss part in the plan isss cruccccial."

Summer looked at her reflection and flattened her ears, her eyes narrowed. As much as she wanted to believe that everything was going to be okay now that she wasn't with the Dusk, she knew that wasn't true. The Dusk was everywhere, in her, in her friends. It didn't die until it was gone from them, and for now, it looked like the only way to do that without risk was to die. Bah. That would probably happen anyway, seeing how many Dusk there were. Thousands, she was sure. It was hopeless, wasn't it?
The voices spoke up then, but she tuned them out. She couldn't start thinking like that. There had to be some hope. What did she know about the Dusk? Very little, admittedly. But she knew about their leader. Killing him would... Probably end very badly for everyone. She had been willing to die for the Kabutops while she had still been part of the Dusk horde. If they killed him, the Dusk would probably go mad. What if they cured him? That could be interesting. Hmm...
She jumped as she was greeted and turned, letting out a relieved sigh as she saw Ghost and Sol.
"Hello." she greeted simply.

[Kamalia]

Julius beamed. "Glad I could help!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost grinned at Summer, "Why'd you disappear like that?" She shook her head, "Oh whatever, it doesn't really matter. Anyway, we should probably head back to the others... Don't want to get attacked while we're out here, huh?"

[Azunara]

Solara asked, "Are you okay?" She perched besides Summer, worriedly.

---

Dialga wearily took his place back at guard, his safeguard hovering over the camp again.

Dialga used Safeguard!

---

Speck hummed, reinforcing Darkrai's Dark Void on Eleredar. He wouldn't get up unless they let him this time.

Speck used Hypnosis!

[Magnakilro]

Soundwave nodded

He looked at Ironskull, "Sniff out the butterfree big guy!"

The Rampardos nodded with a grunt and began sniffing, it pointed in the direction and the group went ran towards it.

"Hey Soundwave.." Medusa spoke

"Hmm?" ased the Yanmega

"Why doesn't Ironskull talk?" asked Medusa

"He's a mute unfortunately....poor guy can't do more then grunt or use facial expressios to show how he feels...." Soundwave replied.

[Lupis]

Summer shrugged slightly. "Just had to find somewhere quiet to think." And feel guilty, she added in her head. She stood, and nodded at Ghost. "Probably. I like this river though," she tilted her head and smiled slightly, "Remember sliding on that ice? I can have much more fun with rivers. I'll have to show you both sometimes." She was sure it was stupidly obvious that she was being lighthearted to cover her sullen musings, but ignored that fact. No use being depressed and moody, after all.

[rubybeam]

The marshtop sighed the houdoom was just ignoring him, he walked up to the next pokemon he saw which was molly 'You wouldn't know how to bring a fianted pokemon back to health would you?"
