Rescuing the Lost Deerling

First topic message reminder :

Tsukishiro followed her sister as she lead the way into the Obsidian Crevasse. This place was rumoured to be bottomless, a fact that put off a lot of explorers, though sometimes Flying types came to investigate.

The younger Absol glanced around, trying to identify the areas where she had seen the Deerling being chased, but she guessed that they would most likely be further along the Crevasse.

"Well, so much for very few interruptions." Izumi sighed, readying her Scratch attack. The Purrlion jumped into the air faster that a bullet and came down at Tsukishiro with her Scratch attack.

Tsukishiro blinked. She hadn't expected the Purrloin to be that fast, but she realised that if she didn't do something that Scratch move was going to hurt in a few seconds.

Shiro nimbly leaped out of the way before countering with her own Scratch attack.

The Purrloin's Scratch was equally matched by Tsukishiro's, if not overpowered, and the Purrloin jumped back to gain some distance between herself and the younger Absol sister. Little did she realize that Izumi had been waiting for this, and charged her from the right with her own scratch attack prepared.

Tsukishiro grinned as the Purrloin leaped back into Izumi's trap. It seemed that this battle might not last as long as some of their others had but Tsukishiro readied her Feint attack just to be sure. She bounded towards the Purrloin, hoping to catch the Purrloin and finish this before it could recover from Izumi's attack.

The Purrloin was finished after the three attacks and lay on the ground, fainted. Izumi grinned at she and her sister's combined power.

"That was pretty quick, you two!" Elora smiled from above.

Tsukishiro grinned at her sister then turned her gaze to the Aerodactyl, smiling.
"Well.. it was two against one!" she chuckled.

"Anyhow. Should we move on then?" chuckled Shiro.

After the battle was finished, the trio began to move on again. The sounds of feral Pokemon could be hear all around, but none of them really seemed to be paying the odd team any mind. Izumi began sniffing the air, once again picking up a sort of metallic-y scent...

Tsukishiro carried on walking, hoping to reach the Rift rather quickly. It was still a fair distance away, but she could actually be rather impatient when it might mean that someone was in trouble. She stopped though and doubled back as something caught her eye.

"Hey Izumi!" she yelled, nosing something out from behind a rock.
"I think this is a TM!"

Izumi turned around when her sister called her name and took a few steps in her direction. She watched as her sister nosed the item out from some rocks, and realized immediately that her sister was right. "You're right, it is!" Izumi exclaimed excitedly. "So that's what I was smelling before..." Izumi thought to herself. She had a nose for items that was typically so good it scared people.

"I wonder what TM it is..." she thought, curious as to whether she might want to use it.
"Do you think there's any way to tell?"
Tsukishiro tilted her head slightly to the right as she asked this. It seemed to be a common occurance whenever she was confused or asking a question.

Izumi walked over and examined the TM, then sniffed it. "Well, I can't tell you the exact move, but I can tell its a dark-type move. I can tell by the scent; it's slightly murky as well as metallic." Izumi explained.

"That's one heck of a nose you have there!" Elora, who had flown over to wait for the sisters, exclaimed.

Tsukishiro, being Izumi's sister, was used to Izumi being able to smell things that most Pokemon wouldn't be able to smell. Though if she was thought about it, she would conclude that it was probably just as incredible as having a Dimensional Scream ability.

Shiro still couldn't help but wonder what move it was... however she just picked it up and put it into Izumi's bag.
"We can ask someone when we get to that town," she smiled.

"Good idea!" Izumi grinned, then turned to Elora. "Lead on!" she called out excitedly. "There's a Deerling who need our help in the rift!"

"This way you two! And keep a lookout for feral Pokemon, they get more active around this time in the evening." Elora warned.

"Oh Arceus... really?" asked Tsukishiro as she began to follow Elora once again. Her steps began to get quicker, as she wished to avoid any more confrontations than was necessary. Unlike Izumi, her sense of smell wasn't exactly top notch, and so Shiro decided to keep her eyes and ears focused on her surroundings so that she wouldn't miss anything.

Izumi once again began sniffing the air, her nose twitching as it acted as her own little radar. Suddenly though, Izumi crinkled up her nose. "Yeeesh... It reeks of dirty dragon around here. Strongly." Izumi complained slightly. Just as she said this, a slightly angry-looking Gabite popped out of the ground and bared his teeth at the two sisters, who remained on the ground due to lack of ability to fly like Elora.
