Of Rocks, Bones, and Broken homes.

First topic message reminder :

Rouge looked around his small dank cave, the place was a mess. to be fair it was always a mess, but this time it was a mess because his small store of food had be ransacked. He picked up the half eaten Oran berry off the ground, and found that it had be soiled beyond the point of being ok to consume. It had been thrown in to fecal matter. At this point Rouge stomach growled, and he decided to stop these raids upon his home. He took the one possession that had not been stolen, his trusty bone club, and set out to find out who was doing this. Not twenty minutes had gone by after he took to following the trail did he find a cross roads with too many paw-prints to distinguish the culprits from, he was stuck. Looking at his surroundings, he found no bushes, nothing he could eat. He then searched for a good place to sit that was out of the way of any wondering pokemon, and sat behind a stone near the cross roads. He closed his eyes only for a moment, then fell into a dreamless slumber.

The disk had caught the Zorua's attention out of the items, it was a tm, these kind of things were widely sought after for their ability to teach a pokemon a move they would never otherwise know. She ignored the cubone wandering off and slipped the TM into her Joy Ribbon that slung around her neck and made a pocket like area where she could carry stuff without the use of her jaws and paws.

She turned, finally acknowledging that the cubone had wandered off, and followed him. He seemed to have found a trail that had led to a strange orb, she wasn't quite sure what this one was though, having not encountered it before. She kept her distance from the orb, just in case it was one of those strange ones that could make a pokemon vanish into thin air or even afflict a pokemon with a status condition.

Rouge put the orb down gently to one side, if she wanted this weird round object, she could have it. He found more paw prints under the orb and continued to follow them coming up to a large rock that looked heavy, but was carved out on the inside to be very light. He knew this rock well as he had even used it to hide once from another Pokemon.

He carefully lifted up the rock and peered into the darkness, squinting to try and see better. he settled down the rock again and moved so that he'd lift it with the sun illuminating the insides for him. Again he dug his paws under the edge of the rock and lifted it up peering inside.

The strange barrage of useless items to the vixen seemed to be quite annoying. She had found another disc not far off from the cubone, but it had seemed that whoever it was must have been making off with a large burden and had been dropping some stuff. Mirage placed the disc in with the other, already thinking about what she could possibly do about these strange objects. She obviously was unable to learn them, but someone else might, and she could perhaps use that in the future somehow.

She quickly trotted back towards the cubone, investigating his discovery of yet another seed. The seed must have been an attempt to hide the items rather than letting them be scattered about willy nilly, "Must have been packing quite a large load to be dropping items like this..." she spoke to the cubone.

((I swear if there aren't any pokemon in this roll, the gods of the 50/50 chance are officially cursing my soul into being forever cursed me against have the side I want.))

Rouge looked at the Tyranitar and prepared to fight. He new this was the one who stole his food and destroyed his home.

"Gttoarit flapptratger soaurlktjka!" He slopped out as he launched himself against the Foe only to be smacked away like an annoying fly, fainting before his unconscious body hit the ground and rolled towards the near by vixen, stopping right next to her hind paws. His bone stuck out in front of her wedged into the ground, the Spurn Orb next to rouge's head.

The Tyranitar looked at the Vixen, seeing he TM disk in her paws, it roared with an calculable fury and charged at her.

The tyrannitar seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, it raised its great head and gave a mighty roar. Its eyes were wide with an uncontrollable rage, and it seemed to be locked onto the TM the Mirage had placed into her Joy Ribbon. A pesky little rat charged towards it, and seemed to try to attack it, but the tyrannitar slapped it away with ease, sending the skull-pest back to the ground.

The tyrannitar gave another roar, one more high pitched and close to a Screech attack, but not quite. Its tail waved angrily, smashing into the nearby boulder and completely shattering it, before the large green monstrocity charged for the small and rather meek looking vixen.

Mirage's ears lowered in utter fear as the beast seemed to be towering over her, the ground was rumbling beneath her feet, causing the orb to bump up and down as the tyrannitar grew near. Relying on her quick wits, Mirage darted forward, grabbing the heavy club that was the cubone's bone between her jaws, and twisted her head as she whacked the orb like a golf ball towards the tyrannitar.

The orb sailed across the sky before becoming wedged in the tyrannitar's great jaws and silencing its loud roar. The orb began to glow, as the tyrannitar attempted to break it with its jaws. When the orb finally shattered, a bright light burst forth and enveloped the knocked out cubone and the club-carrying zorua, their forms disappearing in the white light as it faded, and leaving the tyrannitar alone in its fit of rage.

The beast looked about, spitting out blood-stained glass from its mouth as it searched for the two. When they were nowhere to be found, It gave a fierce howl to the sky, expressing its rage that the two had gotten away.
