This is not Festivity forest.

First topic message reminder :

(Energy: 20-5=15)

Chase liked looking for eggs in Festivity forest, despite his bad eyesight. He had met a decent amount of Pokemon so far. He had gone to Grassveil after he got tired of hunting eggs. Once he was done resting, he had decided to go there again. The event was going to last a few days. It was a rather big event after all.

Chase was really excited. He was thinking about what he would find today. He could make out a forest further on the path. That had to be it. Chase started running. "Festivity forest, I can't wait. I will be able to look for eggs again."

The forest was coming closer and it was starting to become more clear. Then he stopped at the entrance. Many emotions were going through him when he looked around him. Shock, sadness, disappointment, and a bit of anger towards himself, all because the forest in front of him was not Festivity forest. Did he get lost? What was he supposed to do now?

One moment they were falling, the next moment a green light surrounded them and they were on the ground. It didn't feel like he crashed into the ground. Chase glanced at the Ralts he was holding. She looked exhausted. Chase could only think about one explanation on what happened. Clara must have teleported them away, but by doing so she tired herself out.

The white Eevee carefully tried letting her go, only to notice her fall down. Chase quickly grabbed her again with one paw to prevent her from falling down. He looked a bit worried at the girl. "Clara? Are you ok? You seem rather tired. Do you maybe want to rest a bit?" He asked her. It didn't seem like it was a good idea to leave her alone. She seemed unable to defend herself against other Pokemon.

Clara groaned slightly at the question, slowly falling out of it. “y…yes” was the only word she could get out at the moment. Her mind was completely bogged down and her muscles refused to work. The two seemed to be in the middle of a small clearing between the trees. On one side of the group, there was a flowerbed and the other side just past a few trees was a larger clearing.

As Clara had responded, with the lack of any general movement. It was very clear that she was now very vulnerable. She had inadvertently used up most of her energy teleporting chase and herself twice!

It was rather clear to him that Clara was exhausted. It was not surprising considering what happened. The white Eevee looked around him. It was difficult to tell but it seemed they were in some small clearing. He could see something white and green not far from him. Were that flowers? It seemed likely.

Chase carefully tried leading Clara to the flower bed. He thought that would be a good place for her to rest. His body was protesting. The Self-Destruct of the Pineco certainly didn't leave him unscathed. He tried to ignore the pain and tried to make sure Clara wouldn't fall down. He was planning to let both of them get some rest inbetween the flowers.

Slowly, Clara walked towards the flowerbed with Chase’s aid. All the while, the task started to become increasingly difficult due to the lack of energy. One step, two steps, three… each one getting slower. It wasn’t going to be long before she couldn’t go any further.

After only getting halfway towards the flowerbed, Clara stopped moving. (I… can’t move… no… energy… left.) The poor girl was exhausted, never having to teleport twice in succession before. It was definitely something she wasn’t used to.

“S-sor..ry” speaking softly as her vision began to fade, she felt a sudden sensation of falling just as everything went black.

(-Feel free to skip time for her to wake up in the flowerbed or wherever-)

Chase saw Clara fall down and quickly caught her with his paw. He smiled slightly as he noticed she had fallen asleep. It showed how much teleporting had exhausted her. "Rest well, Clara." He said to her in a soft tone. Chase carefully took the exhausted Ralts to the flowerbed, making sure to not wake her up. Once there, he carefully put her down.

Chase lay down a bit further. He could not leave the girl alone now that she was so vulnerable. He would never forgive himself if something happened to her because he left her alone. Chase quietly kept watch for any sign of danger as he waited for Clara to wake up.

Darkness… nothing but darkness surrounded Clara. The only thing she felt was the odd sensation of movement despite lacking any sense of feeling. It was a strange feeling to have, especially since those she couldn’t feel anything else, not even her own body…

The darkness only felt deeper from the lack of sound. It lacked any sound, not even the ringing in one’s ears that would go unnoticed by all. The overwhelming sense of dread that filled the darkness permeated all around her. Where was she?... She was wondering that same thing.

Wh-where am I? Clara thought to herself as her thoughts seemed to fill in void the void made… After her thoughts finished, all sounds quickly vanished once more as if sound couldn’t travel. Not even the slightest echo was heard. If one were to scream, no one would hear it in this place.  

It wasn’t something anyone would like. It was something that would drive one insane if anything. Clara didn’t like it one bit and she didn’t want to stick around there much long. However, she had no choice in this matter as the perpetual darkness went on in all directions. Along with that, she had no sense of feeling and was completely disoriented. She wouldn’t be able to tell if she was moving her own arm if she wanted to.

Minutes go by as Clara was stuck in the darkness. After what felt like minutes to Clara, was seconds in the real world. The subtle motion she had felt finally halted, still unaware of the outside world she belonged in. I… don’t like this place… It’s not right… she thought to herself. Again, her thoughts were heard throughout the whole space she was in, but with no resonation around.

Clara eventually couldn’t stand it as she waited for the darkness to leave and if by a miracle, she wouldn't have to deal with it much longer. A soft glow began to surround Clara after what felt like hours due to the lack of any stimulation from any of her senses. L-light! she shouted out with her thoughts, quickly regretting her actions as the sound boomed all around her. The light quickly faded to black.

Clara slowly opened her eyes to see herself in the middle of a field. The grass that filled the field had a vibrant green color. Flowers surrounded the ralts with many different shades of various colors. Behind Clara, there were many trees that seemed to form an impenetrable wall. To her left, there was a small pond along with the same wall of trees just past that, and finally to her right, was a rather long path covered with grass and flowers.

Clara looked forward once more, only to see the faded to that same void she had been in before. She wouldn’t dare go near it for fear of being trapped once again.
Ahead of her, was the same deathly darkness she had saw before showing up where she was now.

-sigh- I… I guess this is somewhere… the ralt’s thoughts echoed throughout the space. Clara wasn't sure what her next move would be... It was clear she wasn't anywhere she knew.

“Rest… well… Clara.” A voice murmured from seemingly everywhere. This seemed to startle the small psychic type as she wasn't aware of anyone being there with her. I shouldn't stay here... I need to get out. the ralts thought as she looked all around once more. The same features were present as before with the wall of trees behind and to her left. The only viable option she was willing to take was to take the path to her right. What was to the left of the path was rather concerning to her. The 'void' from what the darkness could be best described as... an experience she didn't want to go through ever again.

Clara reluctantly started walking towards the path on her right. The shadows edge crept along with her on her left as she traversed the path. The path seemed to go on forever as she walked. Feeling as though she wasn't making any progress, the ralts glanced back to find to her horror that the path had vanished behind her. The pond and trees were now gone and the darkness was merely feet away from her.

W-where! Where did the path go!? the ralts panicked. She quickly turned back towards her original direction to find the grass up ahead had changed along with its flowers. The color seemed to fade the further you looked ahead on the path... faded to a wretched grey. The darkness seemed to hug the path even closer up ahead and with nowhere to go but forward, it was going to be an unpleasant experience if it hasn't been already.

Heeeey, I got bored mid post and made this to go along with it!:

Clara was forced to continue along the almost colorless path towards arceus knows where. It would seem the path would never end. Perhaps some kind of outside force could provide assistance somehow, even if such force was unaware of what was happening.
It still hasn't been long since Clara had passed out. If anything, it had only been a few minutes at this point compared to what the tens to possibly even hundreds of minutes she felt traversing the realm she was in. Some call it the dream realm, while hers... was a nightmare for her.

Clara lay perfectly still upon where she was placed. Not even the slightest of movement was made despite her nightmare. Her body had no energy to use even if she were to. The way the situation was, she’s practically paralyzed by exhaustion.

((Feel free to skip by an hour or something which should be enough time for her to wake up))

Chase quietly kept watch over the sleeping ralts. He did see some movement from the larger clearing a bit later but whatever it was didn't come their way. It seemed this was a relative safe place. Chase glanced at Clara every now and then. To him, it seemed as if she was sleeping peacefully.

The white Eevee was laying in the shadows of a nearby tree and tried cleaning his sunglasses a bit. Hr didn't know how long they had been there but it had been a while. Everything seemed peaceful so far.

Dream World
As Clara continued along the dreary path, the light that kept the path lit slowly vanished. Eventually, the light had died out, leaving her standing on a small piece of land which was surrounded by the void.

Tears starting to form as Clara felt helpless in the situation. Wh-what do I do… I don’t want to be here anymore… I don’t want to be here anymore! Clara’s thoughts echoed through the darkness repeatedly.  

Clara closed her eyes tightly. Just let me out…. her thoughts echoed through the void. Repeating it once more, she opened her eyes and went to scream as Pokémon had surrounded her on all sides. The scream however, was heard as silence… she heard nothing, not even her own shouts. The Pokémon that had surrounded Clara took a step closer to her. Clara was now beginning to panic as she didn’t know what to do.  

Not even a few seconds later, the Pokémon sprang towards her. Just before impact… She went to scream once more…
Real World
Clara shifts slightly as her dream goes on… a nightmare that had ensued over her fear of others. Clara slowly became more unsettled as she slept, eventually after about an hour of sleep. The silence was suddenly broken. -EEEEEEEEE- Clara screamed as she shot up from her sleep breathing heavily. Her heart was racing and she was just starting to sweat.

Chase had just finished cleaning his sunglasses when a loud scream filled the air. Alarmed, Chase dropped his sunglasses and jumped up. It didn't take him long to find the source. The white Eevee immediately rushed to Clara's side. "Clara, are you ok? What happened? Did you have a bad dream?" Chase was rather worried for the Ralts. She didn't seem hurt or in pain at least so that was a bit of a relief to him. He edged closer and hesitantly put a paw around her. He wanted to try to calm her down, but he didn't know how she would react to it.

Clara had shouted in fear as she awoke from her nightmare. She felt as though Pokémon were surrounding her when in all reality, she was alone with one other. An albino eevee that goes by the name of Chase.

The ralt’s breathing was rather harsh as she tried to calm down. As Chase had asked what had happened, questioning if it was a bad dream. Clara looked all around, several times towards chase as she slowly began to realize that there was only chase and herself in that location. Tears slowly beginning to form. “W-wh-where am I?” she spoke aloud without thinking of the last view events that had occurred before her unexpected slumber.

Chase flattened his ears as Clara yelled in what he assumed to be fear. "Calm down, Clara. It's just me. There is nothing to be afraid of." He told the Ralts in an attempt to calm her down.

Clara didn't respond when he asked if she had a bad dream. Instead, she asked where she was. [color:9940=ff2e4d]"We are still in Pecha forest." He spoke in a soft tone. He stayed close to her. Not only because he felt she could use the company, but also because he was worried that her shouting had attracted ferals. At least both of them where difficult to see inbetween the white flowers.

(Sorry for rolling a lot. If there are a lot of Pokemon, we could have 1 or 2 be NPC's or so)

Clara tried to calm herself as Chase told her that there wasn’t anything to be afraid of. The fact was, she was afraid of being attacked… especially after a dream like that. Clara had quieted herself as she remained where she was, still apparent that she was still in shock from whatever dream she had just had. “I-I-I … surrounded.” she muttered as she shook her head closing her eyes.

“W-why m-must such dreams exist..” she spoke quietly after a moments pause.

Clara was unaware of the groups of Pokémon she may or may not have attracted to herself from her screaming earlier. At the current moment, she sensed nothing around herself other than chase who seemed filled with worry.

((However the storyteller wishes. Unleash a horde? Have groups come in at a time? Heheh, you decide this time ;3))

Chase stared at the Ralts. She really seemed afraid. What kind of dream did she have? "You don't have to worry. It was just a dream. He spoke in a soft, soothing tone. It was clear that Clara was afraid. He wanted to calm her down, but something caught his attention.

Pokemon were approaching them. He could not tell how many there were, but this was not good. He had to try to protect Clara. Seems he had to fight. "Stay here. I can hear Pokemon coming this way. They won't notice you here." After Chase said that he stepped out of the flowers, just in time to be greeted by two angry Hoothoot, an Exeggcute and a Nidorino and Nidorina.

This was a problem. Chase was not strong enough to fight them off, but he could not leave Clara. He was determined about protecting her, and he would make sure she would not be harmed. He quietly waited for the first attack to come.

(The honor is yours to control the enemies and give Chase a hard time. :3)

Clara remained silent as chase assured her that it was only a dream. She already knew it was one, but that feeling of being surrounded continued to persist oddly. Once chase said he heard some Pokémon approaching, she froze. “P-Pokémon?” she stuttered in response. Fear growing within her again as she realized why she couldn’t shake the feeling of being surrounded.

As chase left the flowers, the nightmare returned to Clara… They were surrounded, but this time she wasn’t alone. The Pokémon having yet to even notice her among the flowerbed. The two hoothoot stood opposite of each other in front and behind chase while the nidorino and nidorina did the same on chase’s side. The exeggcute had jumped out of a bush besides the nidorina.

Finally, a cry was heard from above as a murkrow circled from above. It kept to the air as it watched the scene began to unfold below it. All of the Pokémon stood in a circle trapping the two within. They all seemed to remain still as if they were waiting for the slightest reason to strike. Whether it be some form of movement, attack, or sound… they waited for something. The only thing that remained clear was the fact that they did not look friendly.

Chase glanced at the Pokemon surrounding them. It was pretty clear they were surrounded. It did not seem like he would be able to win this fight, but he had to try to protect Clara at least. He could not tell how strong she was, but he actually wasn't strong himself. The white Eevee, normally waiting and attacking when there was an opening, decided to make the first move this time. He started kicking up a lot of sand, causing a lot of dust to fill the air and limiting the field of vision, hoping to turn the battle in his favor.
