The Evil Within.

First topic message reminder :

Spoiler:

Azeral walked into the large cave system, she looked around a bit trying to see something, the light from the entrance was enough so she could still see in front of herself but she knew the cave would be dark. "We should hurry up Joey, i want to find that Pokemon soon, it must be scared in the dark cave." Azeral said in a worried tone of voice, she wanted to know why this happened and how this outlaw was involved, she hoped she didn't see him, she might end up knocking him out just from the rage of him doing something like that.

Azeral checked her bag, she didn't have any blast seeds on her, the main reason was so she wouldn't blow the cave up if she tripped or something, that would be very bad if they ended up doing that, Az just grabbed a sitrus berry and ate it, she was feeling slightly tired from training lately, she ate it in secret so Joey wouldn't worry about her though.

The Noibat was hit by both attacks and fell to the ground, Azeral waited a moment before looking at Joey. "Come on lets get a move on." Azeral said looking back at the cave, she had an idea but wasn't sure if she should do it, if she used a blast seed she'd be able to cut off the Outlaws, sadly she had none and causing a cave in was a bad idea, Azeral shook her head once and waited for Joey to pick up the Azurill, afterwards she'd run through the cave with Joey.

They were close to the exit of the cave, the Pokemon wouldn't chase them after getting out of the cave, right? Either way moving sounded like a great idea right now.

Joey nodded his head as he gestured to the pokemon to climb back on. "Let's get out of here... I don't want them to catch up..." he said as he started to make his way towards the cave's exit. It was only a matter of time before they made their escape. As the duo raced towards the exit. The faint shade of light started to show up at the mouth of the cave. Despite the dark clouds covering the sky to an endless expanse.

The light is considerably brighter than inside the cave. As the two reached the entrance a red and white blur streaked across and stopped right in front of them. "Where do you think you two are going... Hand over the child." the zangoose stated abruptly as it cut them off.

Azeral nodded, them catching up would be bad in several ways, mostly because of the no knocking them out thing, Azeral stopped in place once something went past her, Azeral wanted to curse. "Do you really think we'd just agree?" Azeral asked kinda laughing internally that he thought he could just ask for the Azurill back.

"Why are you doing this, kidnapping Pokemon, it isn't right." Azeral asked hoping he'd do what all evil villains did and tell his plan, wasn't the best idea but some knowledge would be good for when they were going to knock these guys out.

[quote="coaster3000"]"Heh... simply following orders..." the zangoose said as it got into a more offensive stance. It was going to attempt to take the child by force if it had to. "Any further questions... Or maybe some that is more specific..." the zangoose said in a rather annoyed tone. "No? Alright then... Now hand over the kid." the zangoose added. Joey couldn't do anything in this situation as he had the pokemon on his back. He didn't want to put it down as he was sure this creep would snatch the poor thing up.

The pokemon got down lower to the ground as it was preparing to charge after the psychic type. It wasn't going to fall for any of its teleportation tricks again. The second the ralts vanished, he was stop his attack or redirect it and get out of the way.

At the current moment, it was up to Azeral on what to do next. If he got the pokemon to hold onto him tightly, the charge shouldn't harm it. However, he didn't want to risk it as if the little pokemon let go even slightly as he fired any sort of electrical attack. It would likely end up in the poor thing getting shocked also.

"Guess it's easy just taking orders, though honestly I'm doing the same." Azeral muttered under her breath before looking at Joey. "I got this, just make sure Azurill is safe." Azeral told him before looking back at the Zangoose.

Instead of making a move to teleport Azeral would just wait for the Pokemon to be in front of her, she was ready to attack, building up an attack she waited for the right moment to launch a disarming voice, if only she had a close combat attack, then this fight would be easier. Az was ready to launch her attack the second the Zangoose moved, confusing it wouldn't work twice.

"Hmph..." the zangoose began to rush towards the Ralts, using its quick attack to go from side to side as it closed the distance between the each other. Just as he was about to strike the ralts with its claws while they glowed an odd dark color.

The moment his claws were about to get within arms reach, the ralts released a powerful voice filled with emotion that would rattle the zangooses emotions with it. This caused him to stop immediately as the emotions overthrew his own briefly as it stunned him. "AGH!" the zangoose held its ear's but the type of attack that had hit him. Was not something that could be simply blocked out.

It is a voice filled with emotions that will harm its target for emotional damage. Strong enough to cause pain. The zangoose quickly tried to recover his previous attack and swipe the the ralts, there was no telling if it was going to hit its mark now that he had been momentarily stunned.

Joey decided that it be best to get out of view of the zangoose as the battle was under way. If that pokemon ever decided that it was just going to take the kid and flee... Better not give it the chance to know where the little blue pokemon was in the first place. He went towards the nearest tree line and dodged in between tree's. Joey figured if Azeral needed him, he could focus his emotions to get her attention. Something he was curious to try out, sense he knew she could sense emotions.

Azeral smirked as her attack hit him dead on, as the Zangoose tried to swipe at her she ducked under the attack using her smaller size to easily go under the attack and to his unguarded side, Azeral then placed her hand on the Pokemons side she then launched a close range confustion at him, contemplating for a moment to launch a following attack or not, the latter won out and she teleported back just in case he wanted to swipe at her again.

After teleporting back Az looked up, she was quite a fair distance from the Pokemon, Azeral reached in her bag and tried to grab something to hit him with, sadly she didn't have anything on hand at the moment.


(If the attack lands this is the confusion chance. If it's 1-2 the Zangoose is confused, 3-4 he isn't)

Joey finally got passed the area of hostility, he waited for Azeral to get away from the outlaw whenever she could.

The Zangoose looked up as Azeral placed her hand on his side. After a brief second she released and he felt horribly sick. He fell to the ground, feeling as if he was about to unload the contents of his stomach. "The...hell di--" the pokemon tried to ask Azeral what she did but he couldn't hold back the sickness as he fell down to the ground. The scene was a bit... sickening to describe... We can just assume that he won't be getting up for a while.

If Az could punch without it looking silly she'd of done it, though this was good enough, Azeral walked over and held her arm out. She was far enough away to not get thrown up on but she waited a moment. "Not worth it." Azeral said lowering her arm and running over to Joey, they had the Pokemon and the Zangoose was sitting there chucking his lunch over the ground, it was safe to say mission complete. Azeral looked back for a moment waiting trying to see if either the Zangoose or the Outlaw were coming, she mentally shrugged and turned around running to Joey.

Joey heard foot steps approaching, he looked from around the tree to see Azeral approaching. "We good?" he asked the ralts as he looked towards the direction of town. It was a fair bit of distance to get there. He just hoped the fletchinder doesn't show up. "How long did it take to get here? I sorta forget..." he asked Azeral as he looked towards the little blue pokemon. "You doing alright?' Joey asked softly. The pokemon seemed to be alright.

It nodded its head but seemed a little unsure.

"It didn't take that long to get here, i think." Azeral said before giving a small nod to Joey, she felt like the Zangoose wouldn't be following them for a while, and they didn't even see the fletchinder so it was safe to say they were home free. "Alright lets get going, we can move closer until i can teleport then I'll take us the rest of the way." Noel told Joey waiting for him to pick the Azurill up, afterwards she'd start walking back to the town.
