Rise of the Shadows!

[Kamalia]

"Um." Julius waved a paw in the direction of the cave.

[Saturo]

Darkrai appeared in a wisp of smoke next to Deo.
"This reminds me of the old times, buddy!", he said, and grinned. He raised his shields over himself and Deo.

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys stared at the shades of his victims, "Did I really kill this many...."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost glared at the direction Julius had waved a paw in, "I don't belong there anymore. So, I'm not going back." She leapt from the branch she was on to Ironskull's head, then down to the ground, "Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to get going before I end up with EVERYONE nagging at me about this."

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull stepped in front of Ghost. He scratch a picture in the dirt in front of her. It depicted the uninfected's giving Ghost a group hug.

Ironskull whimpered and pointed to the area where his heart was.

[Kamalia]

Julius looked at Ironskull, one of his brows raised. "Oh... kay then. I always thought you were friends with them all or something. I mean, they seemed happy enough to see you return." He absently scratched his side with a hind leg, then glanced down at Ironskull's picture, then up at Ghost. "Hey, that's a good picture, buddy. Hee hee, I think he likes you!"

[Magnakilro]

((He was implying that everyone likes Ghost XD The heart thing was emphasis...unless Senna wants a relationship between a crazy Ghost/Dark umbreon and a mute Rampardos XD))

[Kamalia]

((Heh, I know. Just Julius's somewhat in-the-clouds direction of thinking. x) ))

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost stared at the little drawing for a few moments before turning away, "I've already decided, I'm leaving. Besides.. They'll be better off without me.."

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull shook his head.

He drew another picture, depicting Ghost standing in front, saving everyone from Dusks

He drew another one, without Ghost. He drew the uninfecteds all dead with Scarab and some Dusks standing over the corpses.

[Kamalia]

The Buizel scratched his head. "Ummm... I think Iron's tellin' you that we need you to... help fight?" He looked at Ironskull to see if his guess was right. "That... you're really helpful? Um, you're powerful?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost stopped, blinking at the two drawings, ".... Well, you sure got the 'me protecting everyone' thing down. You should've seen me a few years ago!" She started grinning, "Taking on multible Psycho Boosts and Explosions to shield my friends! ...... Well, actually, the only one I did that for was Sol.. But whatever."

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull tilted his head.

He drew the uninfecteds, including Ghost in a ring with a full heart in the middle

He drew a second one, same picture but no Ghost. He drew a broken heart in the middle, and the uninfecteds looked sad.

He nuzzled Ghost with a whimper.

((Such a deep character for someone who can't talk XD))

[Kamalia]

"Gee, if you're so good at protecting others, why do you think they'd be better off without you anyways? You sound like a very helpful person in battle." He glanced down at Ironskull's new drawing. "Iron here seems to think that the others really like you. I agree with him, too!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost looked down at the drawings, "You obviously think I'm more important than I really am." After a few moments, she blinked, 'Then again... Pretty much everyone was happy to see me back... Maybe I don't give myself enough credit...'

She looked up at Ironskull, "Alright... I guess I'll come back." She smiled slightly, "I honestly thought I didn't belong with the others.... I guess it might be because of how my family was. My older brother, Phantom, hates me. A lot. For no reason I can see other than me being slightly different... I guess after the whole Dusk thing I went through, I seemed to get it into my head that the others wouldn't like me anymore... Because, for yet another reason, I was different..."

((Ghost is such a troubled little Umbreon! >.<))

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull nuzzled Ghost with a purr.

He drew a picture.

It depicted him and Ghost with the words Bro and Sis under them, and a question mark after it.

He was wondering if Ghost wanted to have him as a "brother", one that may be better then Phantom.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost looked at the drawing, then grinned up at Ironskull, "Why not? A mute Rampardos who's an awesome artist makes a MUCH better brother than that ass of a Flareon! In my opinion, of course!"

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull drew a picture, him with Ghost on his head, with a word bubble stating, "ONWARD TRUSTY STEED!" with himself looking happy as he charged

He nuzzled Ghost, purring quite loudly.

[Kamalia]

Julius's brow furrowed. "Well, I kinda know how you feel. Reese is the only family I have. And... I don't think he likes me very much, either." He scuffled his paws on the ground. "I don't think there's anything bad with being different. I mean, otherwise we'd be all the same! It'd be really boring with nothing but copies of myself around!" He gave a little grin, which then faltered. "Actually that sounds really creepy. Also everyone would know the answer to my jokes." He glanced down at Iron's picture. "Hey, there's a great idea, Iron! Just pretend we're all like one big family! I'd like a big family, too. I've never had a big sister. You wouldn't mind a little orange fuzzball for another little brother either, riiiight?" He gave her a wide, pleading grin.

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull editted his latest picture with Julius on his back.

He purred.
