The Plague of Deoxys

[Azunara]

Cro looked down at his mother, gently nudging her with his nose, trying not to knock her over. "I forgot I was so tall...I'm almost as big as that jerk, Palkia!"

---

Lyra shrugged, "Weird. I suppose I'm not complaining, I still think I look pretty cool! And maybe Dad will remember how Mom fought and can give me some tips..." She said, thoughtful.

[Kira]

"That's fine." Delora moved a bit but she didn't fall. She gave her son a nuzzle and grinned. "You keep growing like you are and pretty soon Palkia will have to look Up at you." Her tail twitched again as she let out a little laugh. "You kids are growing up too fast for me...or I'm older than I feel. One of the two."

[Azunara]

Cro grinned at his mother, "Look at it this way. With how long I can live, I'm practically still a hatchling. I'll be really little for a long time..." He said.

---

Lyra pulled herself to her feet, flicking her wings with a grin. "We should probably head back, huh? Before we get attacked again. Not that I'm looking forward to facing your mom...She'll probably be upset." She scowled.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rust nodded, his ears drooping at the thought. "Wish we didn't have to.. But.. Being attacked again would be bad..."

[Azunara]

Lyra looked determined, "Well, if she yells at you, then I'll help you, okay? She shouldn't yell at you. You didn't think you'd get attacked, none of us did. We thought we were safe. And you still do great at holding your own!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

"I.. Guess you're right." Rust said, "Well, let's go, I guess.." He turned and started padding back towards the city.

-

Ghost grumbled, lashing her tail, "What I'd give to actually be able to stand up.. Stupid leg.. Stupid fricken Arcanine.."

[Kira]

"Dear, if your a hatchling I'm a newborn." Delora smiled and gave him another nuzzle. "If you can you should come visit us sometime. Everyone misses you."

[Magnakilro]

Deoxys approached the pair, "Hey"

-----

Mako woke up with a scowl.

------

Pinsir smiled, "There...its off!"

Jaws tossed up more berries for Ghost.
-----

Chomp chuckled, "Forgot how big you got!"

[Azunara]

Lyra nodded, nudging her friend. "It'll be alright. Promise." She said, following and keeping pace.

---

Cro nodded, grinning. "I will, really. It's been really quiet around here, so I'll stop by soon. Well, as soon as all this blows over." He then looked at his dad and beamed. "Hi!"

[Senna-Umbreon]

Ghost grinned, then nommed a berry. "Eh, I guess it's not all half bad. At least I don't have to walk around and have my paws almost fall off, and I can just sit up here and get fed regularly!"

-

"I hope you're right.." Rust sighed, looking up as they neared the Pokemon Center. "Well, here we are..."

[Kira]

Ciro grinned and laughed a bit. "Yep, I'm almost fully grown now! I think I might end up being bigger than Mom!"

-----

Xanthe squeaked and another heart popped out over her head.

[Azunara]

Lyra looked up at the building, and took a deep breath. "Right!" She said, trying to sound cheerful. She ducked into the building, trying not to look conspicuous or noticeable. Maybe they wouldn't even notice them!

[Kamalia]

Julius trotted up to Rust and Lyra. "Hey, you guys okay?" He asked worriedly, nosing and nudging them as he looked them over. He studied Lyra, a grin coming over his face. "Wow, look at you! You remind me a lot of your mom now... you look a lot like her." He paused for a brief moment, a thought dawning on him. Where was Solara? He shrugged to himself, guessing that she was with the other adults. He couldn't wait to see her, Ghost and Iron's faces when they saw him again.

--

Ixchel followed Seed, craning her neck up as she tried to spot the members of the other group. She flicked her tail with slight irritation, hoping that this little attack wouldn't hinder their chances of gaining more Pokémon for their cause.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Rust looked up at Julius, giving him a slight smile, then slunk after Lyra. Maybe if they stayed on the other side of the buildin-- "RUST!!" Oh crap. There went that idea. The Rampardeon let out a squeak, looking up at Ghost, who was glaring down at him from across the room, her tail lashing. "Where the hell did you run off to?!"

[Magnakilro]

Iron placed a hand on Ghost's paw, trying to calm her down.

[rubybeam]

It was soon that cherrie and and biship realized where the main party actually was, they caught up after a few hours of cursing and being lost
"Oh hi again julius!" cherrie exclaimed

[Azunara]

Lyra grinned at Julius, then scowled at Ghost, inching closer to Rust and lashing her tail.

[Kamalia]

"Hey Cherrie." Julius shot the Purrloin a smile. He tilted his head at Biship. "Who's this?"

[Magnakilro]

Seed finally reached Mako's group, "Here they are!"

[rubybeam]

"Im not sure, I just started to follow her around after boardem" Cherrie shrugged looking at Biship, who finally gave a proper greeting "My names biship, a pawniard before you ask" She said
