The Plague of Deoxys

[Azunara]

Lyra didn't know what to do, "Maybe we could ask them?" She asked, sounding doubtful. She quickly looked around, just in case any of the humans got interested in them. Luckily, they seemed to be occupied with their own events, or at least for now.

[Kira]

Ciro backed up a bit before he sighed. "Asking couldn't hurt at least." He offered quietly, his tail twitching behind him. He knew it was silly but he was all tensed up for some reason, and he was cold. Probably all the ghosts nearby.

"Should you kids even be Out here?" A voice came floating over to them from nearby, the same spot the eyes had been. They weren't the only thing visable though, a large purple body could be seen now. The grin usually on his face was gone for now. "Do your parents know?"

(( *Hugs Daray and grins* I missed hiiiim~ ))

[Senna-Umbreon]

((>.>

<.<

I has an idea! Because I'm worried I'm gonna fail epically at RP'ing my TrainerSona, due to sucking at RP'ing anything that isn't a Pokemon.. *Holds up her Suicune character* Rhythym! She can use telepathy to talk to a human! So she could get info on a possible cure! Especially since she's known around Ecruteak City due to well.. Living there, and being one of the Legendary Beasts, so it's not like she's just some stupid random Pokemon going "HAI SCIENTIST, GIEF ME INFO ON THIS VIRUS". It could work! And I'm much more comfortable RP'ing her. Hell, even my Raikou could work for this, despite being on the snarky-jerk side XD))

"That could work.. Maybe they know Mommy! I mean, there's a chance!" Rust said optimistically, tail wagging a bit. He blinked, stopping as the voice spoke. He turned, then started grinning, only to have his expression fall again at the Ghost Pokemon's question. "Um.. Not really..? But.. We have a good reason to be out here!!"

((*Tacklehugs Daray* WHEEEEEE))

[Azunara]

Lyra looked at Daray warily. He too had a familiar smell, but the yaneevee was unable to place where. She inched away from Daray, just as a precaution, moving closer to Rust.

[Kira]

Daray crossed his arms and eyed Rust before he spoke again. "Alright, spill it kids. What's going on?"
Ciro blinked and then began to explain the virus to Daray, his tail sinking as he spoke. "...So we're here trying to find a human to help us look for a cure instead of killing my Dad!"
Daray flinched a bit and shivered. "Yeah, I don't think that'd go over too well...Alright, so who are we looking for?"

[Senna-Umbreon]

"Well.. We thought of trying to find my Mommy's human, so she could try and get some information on a cure from a scientist or something, but.. Well, we'd first have to find someone to translate, right? Surely there has to be someone who can help us get Mommy's human to understand what we need help with! Heck, maybe we could just find someone who can talk to humans!" Rust replied, his gaze drifting back over to where the Typhlosion and Noctowl were. "And I do remember that one of Mommy's old teammates can talk to humans! He's a.. Rai-something? Maybe we could find him!"

[Magnakilro]

Arachne thought for a bit, "Rai...Rai...Raichu? Rai....kou?"

-----

BadSeed looked up at Ixchel and Samantha, "We should get moving...fast....this virus ain't gonna wait for us..."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rust brightened, tail starting to wag again. "Raikou! That's what Uncle Pan was! He could try and find him! He can talk to humans! Or at least, he was able to talk to Mommy's human!"

[Azunara]

Lyra nodded, "Right....but that still leads us to the main question. How do we find them? Are they here in this town or something?"

[Kamalia]

((Right, might make some mistakes with Julius and Foster here. As far as I know they've arrived in Ecruteak and are looking for Ghost's trainer/team mates. I... just don't really feel like reading up on 11 pages to catch up entirely with conversations and such. x_x))

Julius peered at the town with curiosity. He brightened at the sight of Daray's familiar face. "Hey Daray! How are you, Mrs. Molly and the kids doing?"
Foster peered at the occasional ghosts flitting through the air. "Hm. Do you think any lady Sableyes like hanging around here as well?"

--

Ixchel gave BadSeed a curt nod. "Do you have an idea of where we should go next?"

[Kira]

Daray grinned a Julius and floated over to him for a moment. "They're doing great, thanks for asking. Where've you been? Out exploring and being generally awesome I'm guessing." He let out a little laugh before he looked over at the kids. "Pain knows the two that just ran by you guys. I've seen 'em talking once or twice."

[rubybeam]

Cherrie panted, glad she cleared the blood off the wounds and was now back to normal. ((quick excuse to not have a perament insane cherrie)) All that remained was fresh looking wounds from battle, the long burned claw mark raking the side of her body, the opean wounds on her head. She then had to the sudden urge to scream and run off, so she did that. After a couple hours of this she realised she ran into something orange and furry and looked up to see a familiar floatzel "Oh hi julius!~ how have you been"

[Magnakilro]

BadSeed shook his head, "Unfortunately not really....."

------

After a good rest, Mako woke up, yawning.

He looked up at Darcie to see how she was doing.

-------

Chomp looked ahead, "Hmmm...shouldn't be far from Ecruteak now..."

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rust brightened even more, grinning at Daray. "Really? That's great! We should go ask them!" He turned and scampered in the direction the Typhlosion and Noctowl went in.

((Heh, don't worry Kam. You've pretty much got it nailed, so you shouldn't be too lost of everything!

... Now.. Time to actually pay attention to my Aggron who I keep forgetting >.>))

------

"No clue." Samantha replied. "There's always the option of walking around and asking everyone random Pokemon we see.. But that's seems pretty stupid to me."

[Azunara]

Lyra still didn't know what to make of Daray, looking at the ghost carefully. He was a vague, fuzzy memory, from when she was a lot younger. Still, the others liked him well enough, so she decided he couldn't be half bad. She turned to follow Rust, in case he needed back-up.

[Kamalia]

Ixchel looked thoughtful for a moment. "I would say we should seek out the areas that have been hit hardest with the virus. There may be more Pokémon there who would be willing to fight because loved ones have fallen to the sickness. We would need to be careful that we don't pick up ill Pokémon or become sick ourselves, though."

--

Julius winced, then let out a chuckle. "Well, I wish that was the case. Glad to hear they're doing well." He blinked and glanced up at the sound of another familiar voice. "Cherrie!" He grinned, then paused. "Whoa. What happened to you?" He asked, flicking his gaze from staring at her wounds to watching Rust and Lyra to make sure they weren't getting into trouble.

[Magnakilro]

Seed thought for a bit, "I dunno this region...so I'm kinda lost"

[rubybeam]

Cherrie blinked, almost forgetting that she got in a fight, hse smiled "I got in a fight with a big metal dinosaur thing, that wanted to kill me for no reason whatsoever"

[Kira]

Daray blinked before he gave a little shrug. "I'm sure you were doing something interesting." He tilted his head as Cherrie showed up and then glanced back at the kids.

Ciro blinked and let Rust go ahead. He wasn't really feeling up to talking to anyone. He had just realized something anyway...he looked like he was infected. Bad idea to go anywhere.

---------

Darcie was still staring up through the tree branches, though she was paying attention to everything else.
Eithne was no longer snoring, but her paws were moving in the air as though she was running.

----

Delora tilted her head up again and it tilted. "Good...all this travel is making my paws itch for mountains.."

[Senna-Umbreon]

((Possible long post incoming..))

"Get back here!!" The Typhlosion said, still chasing her friend.

The Noctowl let out a bit of a laugh. "Not a chance! And just face it, Taronga! You'll never catch me!"

Taronga snorted, firing a small burst of embers at the owl. "And I suggest you face the fact that I can and will catch you, Insomnia!" She cackled.

"Um.. Excuse me?

"Eh?" Taronga skidded to a halt, turning to blink at the owner of the voice. She was greeted by an odd grey and blue Umbreon-like Pokemon trotting up to her. "What and who the heck are you?" The Typhlosion asked.

"I'm a Rampardeon. My name is Rust!" Rust replied, grinning up at Taronga. "Me and my friends are looking for someone you know. He's a.. Raikou, I think?"

"You mean Pan? Who'd want to find him?"

"So you do know him! You must know my Mommy too, then!"

"Your.. Mommy? Wait wait wait wait wait." Taronga flailed her arms a bit. "You said your name was Rust? I swear I heard that before. ... You also look a lot like an Umbreon."

"That's cause my Mommy's an Umbreon!"

"... WAIT. HOLD EVERYTHING. You're Ghost's kid! I remember Pan mentioning something about that a while ago!"

Rust nodded. "That's me!"

Taronga blinked, then flailed again. She turned and looked up at Insomnia, who was hovering a little ways away. "Insomnia! Get over here!"

"What is it? And who's this?" Insomnia asked as she flew down to her friend, who grinned at her. "You remember Pan mentioning Ghost had a kid, right? Well, this is him! His name is Rust!" Taronga explained.

Insomnia stared at Rust for a second or two, before letting out a squawk. "What?!"

"It's true!" Rust said, nodding. "Um.. Sorry to butt into all this, but do you two know where Uncle Pan is? Me and my friends need his help!"

Taronga and Insomnia exchanged glances. "Uh, yeah. We do. Why do you need his help anywa-- Agh! Insomnia!" Taronga screeched as the Noctowl batted her with a wing. "It doesn't matter! If they need his help, we can leave the questions for later! You stay here. I'll go find him." Insomnia said, before turning and flying off.

((.. This wasn't really supposed to be this long. It just ended up that way >.>

.. And it's about to be even longer! Whoo! XD))

------

Samantha let out a rumble-like sigh. "And of course now you'll both need me to lead the way. Goodie. Unfortunately, I have just as much of an idea as you two do about where to go."

------

"It's about time!" Ghost said, tail twitching. "I swear, if I end up running into my team while we're there..."
