The Hunt is On!

First topic message reminder :

So this was the Fallen Leaf Copse....the thing Sova had failed to find first. It was certainly beautiful enough to be a treasure, but the real treasure was within....somewhere. Perhaps it wasn't too late for him to be the one to find the treasure. Of course, having someone as enthusiastic about treasure as Mirage with him was sure to help as well.

"This looks like a nice place to live...." He said.

Just as Sova prepared for another ice beam on the pretty much helpless wurmple, a gust of sparkling Silver Wind whipped up, interrupting his concentration. A dustox had decided to join the fight. "Oh, maybe now we can have some fun!" The glaceon shouted loud enough for everyone, enemies included, to hear. Without even the slightest delay, he fired an Ice Beam up at the dustox, missing barely. He'd need more practice before with this move....

The silvery wind gusted itself throughout the field, an attack that struck all opponents, and this included Mirage. The zorua yelped in pain as the bug type move struck her, dealing quite a bit of damage. This wasn't some push-over Dustox, this was a powerful one. Before much more could be done, the Dustox had spread its wings wide, and a rather pretty yellow light surrounded it like it was in come kind of orb. The Light Screen provided a bit of a shield for the dustox, weakening attacks that were dealt using Special Attacks. Mirage, having no other real attack, fired another Shadow Ball, hoping to shatter the shield, but failing.

Nico was blasted back from his assault on the sleeping sentret. ''what the-''  he looked up and saw the problem. A dustox had been flanking them. Nico looked around, surveying the battle field. Spying the giant glass looking shield he had. hmm light screen, interesting i wonder if it makes it invulnerable from this! Nico hypnotized the dustox as he made his eyes roll around his body. It became drowsy as it slowly began crashing to the ground. Gotcha!

As the dustox came hurdling towards the ground, Sova darted towards it with Quick Attack, ramming into it and knocking it into a tree. He then immediately followed the attack up with an Ice Beam. Now that the target was stationary, it was fairly easy to hit. However, the glaceon's continuous icy blast was interrupted by a pain in his leg. He looked down to see the wurmple from earlier biting onto one of his hind legs and simply stared with an unamused expression for a moment. The fur on his leg then froze into spikes and sent the wurmple reeling back onto the ground with a some scratches on its face to think about.

Mirage was about to go finish the job for the glaceon but was interrupted as the sentret seemed to have awoken and returned to the battle field. It gave her a quick tackle to stop her attack, before looking at the gastly and studying it carefully. It swiftly approached the Gastly, and stood up on its tail, the ring on its belly glowing as it used Mimic, before using Hypnosis on the Gastly. It seemed to have wanted to give the one who lulled it to sleep a taste of its own medicine.

Nico felt the immediate effects of his own power. He turned around and in a last ditch effort to protect his friends and putting all his power behind it thrusted his entire body into a fist Must make one last move must protect... friends.... It was getting harder to think. He was now a fist. MUST STAY AWAKE He hit The sentret with the most power he could possibly could conjure,slamming down on to the sentret. As he fell into the unconcious abyss

Sova paid no mind to the other combatants in the battle, focusing completely on the dangerous dustox whom had already woken up. "Man, you can take a hit." He said before firing another Ice Beam at the dustox, who, with one swift flap of its wings, rose above the attack to avoid it. As it attempted to fly up and back to its vantage point in the sky, he Quick Attacked in its direction and leaped into the air at the flying bug, ramming into it and knocking them both into the tree. After he hit the ground along with the enemy, he began feeling a painful headache. Confusion.

"Oooow...." He moaned as he struggled to stay focused. The dustox was about a foot away from him, struggling to get its self back off the ground as it attacked him with the telekinetic force. An ice beam put an end to both its attempts to take flight and its attack.

Once the ice beam was finished, one could see that the Dustox was completely encased in ice, becoming frozen. The screen of light shattered, and the dustox was down for the count. Mirage turned to the sentret, who had just put the Gastly into a slumber. The sentret seemed to meet eyes with her, and suddenly she began to grow drowsy as well. She stumbled a bit, and tears began to flow from her eyes, using Fake Tears. The sentret flinched, its Special Defense lowering harshly before the vixen collapsed into a slumber as well. The sentret turned to the glaceon, a smirk upon its face as it had felled two of Sova's companions, and confidence beaming in its smirk.

He dreamed of a sky made of purple. Swirling colors and himself being lost to the wind. Seeing everyone he cared about being happy. He felt a sharp prick but he didnt want to rise just yet, he wanted to see more of this world. Than the world turned from purple to black. He saw flashes of alakazam on that terrible night. He felt another sharp prick as his eyes flickered open.

Sova smirked. "And it turns out the sentret's the real MVP....Hope you put up a better fight than your friend." He looked to the hunk of ice known as "dustox". By the time he looked back, the sentret was literally right in his face. He quickly directed his gaze to the ground to avoid being put to sleep like his allies. He prepared for an Ice Beam, but was met with a Sucker Punch from the sentret before he could attack, leading into Fury Swipes. After three hits, he broke the attack with Ice Beam, knocking the sentret to the ground. Before it could get to its feet, he Quick Attacked into it, bit onto its tail and spun around, releasing it in the opposite direction.

The sentret stood to its feet, then its tail, avoiding another ice beam from the glaceon. He then decided to take the fight back into close range, darting over to the sentret and freezing his tail into a spike flail. The sentret responded by Slamming its tail against his own as he attempted to attack. The tails collided, ending with the glaceon being knocked to the ground and the sentret sustaining a rather painful looking wound on its tail.

The nightmare...it was back. The villagers were angry, they were throwing stuff at her this time. However she had not remembered the dream last time, so this felt like it was all new to her. She cowered in the corner while the villagers called her names, beat down attacks, and tried to get her to leave, but she could not move. She was cornered, and everything seemed so...terrifying. Mirage turned in her sleep, looking obviously disturbed by her dreams. The glaceon was not there with her this time though, it was just the pokemon from Grassveil and a mix of those from her old town. She screamed in her dream, wanting the nightmare to end, but her body refused to listen, and remained in its slumber, allowing for her mind to torture her.

Nico got up. looked around and saw Sova fly to the ground. Enraged by seeing his new friend hurt like this Nico dashed over to the sentret. It seemed to be on its dying limb. Nico flew in and grabbed the sentret, shutting his eyes as the pokemon attempted to hypnotize him. ''stay away from my friends you peice of sh*t!'' as he punched him again and again with his icy fist until he was uncouncious

Sova rose back to his feet just in time to see the sentret faint.  He then noticed something stuck to Nico.  "Hey....uh....you've got a little uh...."  He approached the gastly and fired an ice beam in his direction, knocking the cascoon off the gastly.  "Got it."  He said.

The glaceon then turned his attention to the still passed out zorua.  He approached Mirage and shook her with a paw.  "Okay, nap time's over, come on."

A shaking, they were getting closer...and closer...until finally something touched her, out of fear she lashed out, not yet realizing she had woken up. She blinked, realizing she had nearly bitten Sova's paw. She huffed and got up, "I'm fine, i'm fine!"
She looked around at the destruction the duo had caused, "Seems like I missed out on all the fun," she huffed. She walked over to the frozen Dustox, noticing a small hole at the trunk of a tree it was near, "What have we here?" she began to paw the items out of the hole, listing them off as she went, "Light Box, TM, Light Box, Gummi, Gold Ribbon, and Gummi...not bad. Think i'll keep them." She smirked and placed the items in her Ribbon's makeshift pocket. It was difficult holding all these things, it made her a bit heavier, but it was worth the profit.

''Man I haven't had that much fun since i was in Pecha forest!'' he started thinking about the charmander again it made him miss her. However he was full of relief that the battle had went so well. Nico slowly started laughing relived that his friends were okay and they had all had fun. Well at least Nico thought they were having fun. ''So where to now?'' he asked Sova. As he said this he was zipping around them, and having fun while doing it.
