Rise of the Shadows!

[Moonlost]

Bazz turned to look at Dagger. "I believe that there are many ways to keep the dark urges under control. Mine is, perhaps, a little more basic. I imagine the voiced to be a real enemy, and I guard myself from them, lashing out at them when they get close or try to sneak around. Sometimes they slip past and infuence my actions, so I must be constantly aware and on guard."

[Magnakilro]

Lilitl began to stand up, legs wobbling. She winced a bit.

[Azunara]

Solara snapped back, "Why should I? Everyone would be happy if I just stayed quiet or left! All I do is cause misery. Every little thing I do sets someone off, and there's nothing I can do to stop it." The espeon bristled, frustrated.

Dialga growled, stirring. He got ready to do something, freeze time if needed even to stop them from fighting.

Dagger was thoughtful. Speck spoke up, "I found they really like jokes! It keeps them quiet for a while." The skarmory blinked, then added, "I see. I'm just a bit surprised. So far, all the Dusk I've met were savage killers."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost shook her head, "No one would be happy if you left! You're our friend!" She sighed again, "And while I'm not exactly happy currently.. I'd be even more upset if you left."

[Moonlost]

Baaz winced. "That's not too far from the truth to be honest. Most Dusk seem to revel in their curse. The Hounds were especially true of this. I believe that we're pretty much the exception."
The big Arcanine turned to see Lilith and moved over to her, offering something for her to lean on should she need it.

[Kamalia]

"Here, Lil..." Olivia knelt next to her and slipped her arms under her chest to support her, being careful to avoid her injuries. "Take it easy." She backed up slightly to let Baaz take the job.

"S'okay Ghost." The Buizel shrugged, eyeing Solara nervously, the fur on his back and neck standing up a little. He stood up. "What is with you two? Why do you keep thinking everyone will be happy if you leave?! Sheesh! It's driving me crazy with all this moping and blaming yourselves!"

((Gotta go for dinner. Be back in a few.))

[Magnakilro]

Lilith leaned against him, smiling, "T-thanks...."

She looked up to see who it was and blushed immediatly.

[Moonlost]

"What happened to you milady, if you do not mind me asking?" Baaz said, oblivious to Lilith's flushing. He wished that he had opposable thumbs to keep her steady with.

[Azunara]

Dagger was left alone to think. The skarmory chirruped quietly to himself, somber.

Dialga continued watching the argument.

Solara hissed at Julius briefly, ignoring him beyond that. "You, especially." Solara said, then continued. "I always seem to do something wrong in your mind. If I'm too serious, something's wrong. Too happy or content, something's wrong. If I do a single thing beyond normalcy, blank emotion, I upset you." She was peering at Ghost carefully, looking for a good way to slip past her.

[Magnakilro]

Lilith winced, "....a group of Ghosts attacked...a Spiritomb...a Drifblim...a Dusknoir...and later a Banette...they were all former friends of mine..."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost opened her mouth to reply, but closed it. She honestly couldn't think of anything to say. She settled with just sighing and staring at the ground.

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull drew a picture of Solara and Ghost, a heart between them, both looked happy

[Kira]

Will you at least let me out to apologize to Lilith for attacking her friends?
That's a stupid thing to apologize for
Fine, then I'll apologize for letting them hurt her.
Mewtwo looked at Kyuu, who simply stared back. He sighed before he released his bubble from her and looked away, getting a whack to the back of the head for it. He rubbed the spot, glaring at the cat as she went over to Lilith.
"I..I'm sorry I couldn't help you more Lilith." Kyuu said quietly.

[Moonlost]

"I'm... sorry to hear that." Baaz said sympathetically. Most of his former police team had been infected, he did not liek the thought of having to face them down. Nor did the the idea of having to fight Seventeen and the other Hounds brighten him up. He never realised just how hard these uninfected had it.

[Azunara]

Solara glared venomously at Ghost, still trying to ignore Ironskull and Julius. She attempted to slip away once more, scooting and hugging the wall as she tried to press past the umbreon.

[Magnakilro]

Lilith replied to both of them, "Its ok...I just can't wait till this is over..."

She winced and her legs buckled, causing her to drop to the floor.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost raised her head as she noticed that Solara was no longer in front of her. As soon as she spotted the Espeon, she again darted over to stop her, "I'm not letting you leave!!!" She yowled, fur starting to bristle.

[Magnakilro]

Ironskull was crying a bit.

He drew a picture of Solara and Ghost watching a sunset resting thier heads on each other

He wrote Sisters Forever under it.

[Moonlost]

Baaz mentally swore, trying to use his front paw to catch the Houndoom as she tumbled. He whined a little bit, wishing he had Venin's ability to heal.

[Kira]

Kyuu went to try and catch Lilith, jerking her paws back before she could touch her. She didn't want to hurt anyone again. She closed her eyes instead and held her paws a few inches away from her, focusing all the healing energy she could into her friend.
