A Joyful quest.

First topic message reminder :

Noels mind snapped back to reality, she found herself standing in the entrance of the Black Mist Mountain, Noel quickly shook her head before staring at the large mountain. "Huh, How'd I." Noel said before shaking her head. "Doesn't matter i suppose, did i sleep walk here or something." Noel asked herself, she had no sleeping problems she knew about, besides grabbing things randomly. "Did i come here for something?" Noel asked only herself before staring at the ground, was she losing it?

"That's right, i came here for, An item." Noel said to herself trying to recall what item she was looking for. "Can't remember." Noel once said looking back at the mountain, what happened was she walked here for a while, she was fatigued from fighting her way here and collapsed before she reached her destination, luckily nothing bad happened while she was asleep, yet she forgot what happened since she was running on will power till the end.

"Oh ya, I was training near the Fiery Peak, i guess i got hurt really bad." Noel said now noticing the small burn marks on her coat. "Alright, guess i should eat something." Noel reached into her bag and pulled out a Oran berry, she ate it before walking towards the area.

Energy: 54 (60-16+10)

"Sorry Aaron, the only way is to wait until it goes away, it will eventually, or you'll walk around like a confused person your whole life, either or." Noel said, a joking tone was used in the last half of her sentence. "Gonna have to get used to it, happens often, though i do wonder who puts those traps in dungeons." Noel pondered looking at the ground. "In any case just sit relax and don't throw up."

Aaron groaned when She made that Joke. This isn't funny to Aaron, this 'Confusion' business was one of the worst thing Aaron had experienced. "Please... don't Joke like that" Aaron sighed. It feels like it was staring to go away now. Maybe he could stand without throwing up this time? Aaron slowly got to his feet, feeling a lot better then he was before. "Ok, I think it wore off. Can we go now, I really want that Ribbon. Plus, I really don't want to linger here too much longer." Aaron took all of his stuff he got from the orb and waited for Noel to do the same. "Ready when you are Noel."

"Nah maybe we should relax a bit, while you want to find the ribbon i understand maybe for right now it'd be best to just sit down and take a little rest." Noel really didn't want to tell him it was because her paws were hurting beyond belief right now. "If you want to leave that badly we'll go, just saying a little more rest wouldn't do us any harm." Noel repeated slightly unsure how good Aaron could move, after all he had thrown up a lot.

"B-but..." Aaron sighed. Noel probably knew what she was talking about. Aaron laid back down, rather annoyed. After all the loot they found, Why didn't they find the Joy ribbon yet? He thought this place had it? "Noel... Are you sure this place have some? I know we haven't gone far into the dungeon, but I just want to find the ribbon and go at this point. I mean, I'm not leaving until we get that Joy ribbon, and the Dungeon has been generous with giving us berries. So if you wanna do this all day, I'm not complaining." Aaron could suddenly smell some feral come near. "Whelp, I guess we spent too long at the same spot. Reinforcement have arrived". Aaron was not looking forward for this at all.

"Yes i am sure, i once found two in one sitting." Noel said noticing the Pokemon that started to crowd around. "Nah most likely not Reinforcements, Feral Pokemon normally never work like that, odds are we'd of had to fight these guys anyway." Noel said calmly before getting up, as Noel got up a giant Aggron jumped down right behind Noel, before she could even turn around the Pokemon grabbed her by the neck. "Why is it always the F**king Neck." Noel managed to get out before getting lifted into the air easily.

Noel was then thrown away towards an open part of the mountain, unknown to anyone but the Aggron there were a few traps set up there, explosive ones to be exact. "Of course." Noel said before an explosion ensured, with the bleeding, the throwing and the exploding it was safe to say Noel was hurt pretty bad, she laid on the ground grabbing something from her pack, it was a reviver seed, she quickly ate it. Once she did all her wounds healed, burn marks were gone, Noel then rolled on her palm and jumped back on her feet ready to fight again, though due to all the smoke from the explosions it looked like the attacks didn't even faze her.

"Alright, that hurt like hell." Noel said cracking her neck, she was pretty pissed off now.

Energy: 61 (16 - 25 + Reviver seed)

"Noel!" Aaron knew that explosion wouldn't bring her down, but he was still worried. He Tried to go help the Lucario, but a group of Arons surrounded Aaron. Judging by the smell, there were four. "Damn it, I don't have time for this!" Aaron Went to his battle stance. He was extremely worried that they would pile on him. It was a good strategy to use, but Aaron really didn't want to be beaten to a pulp that fast. Two of them charge in at once. Aaron struggled to dodge both of the Aron's metal claws, backpeddling to ensure that he wouldn't get hit. Suddenly, the other Arons Behind the Deino shoved him back into the attack. Needless to say, the Metal Claws from both feral Scratched Aaron on both side of his face. Unlike a normal scratch where he could shake it off. This one hurts, and it really hurts. Touching his face, Aaron could feel a little blood. "Ok, your screwed now!"

(29 - 24 + 2 *Pages I missed.* = 7 *Def scarf Activated.*)

Noel stood up as the Aggron charged her again, Noel stood her ground and instead of countering put her paws up and stopped the charging Pokemon, Noel gritted her teeth and stood her ground as the Pokemon tried to push her back, Noel then grabbed the two horns the Pokemon had and started to spin it around, after two spins she then thrust the Pokemon upward afterwards she slammed it down into the ground causing a large quake in the earth.

Once it was on the ground Noel let out several Force Palms into its stomach dealing critical damage. Once Noel was sure it was down she was struck in the back by a bone, she turned around to see a Marowak and Cubones deciding to go after her, Noel let out a laugh then got back into her stance.

They were screwed alright, but how is Aaron gonna beat them all? Despite the Arons being steel types, they are not weak to electric. He could use his Dragon Rage, yet he doubt it'll be strong enough to beat any of them. And despite his typing boost, he doesn't know it could beat them at ease either. How is he going to... That TM! He doesn't know what it was, but if it something he could use, then maybe he could win this fight! Aaron quickly took the TM out of his bag and placed it on his head. He could feel the memory of his trusted Dragon Rage fade from memory. Only to be replaced by a move that he could most certainly use.

While that was happening, one of the Arons lunged at the Deino. Unfortunate for him, he was blasted away by a blue like orb. He crashed into a wall, fainted as a result. Aaron smirked. "Thanks to this TM, I have a fighting move that will target your weakness. Best part? Your a lot more weaker then you should be thanks to you being Steel and rock type. So who next to get blasted by my Focus Blast?" Aaron taunted. The Aron look at each other in worry. How can they attack someone like that? "Farewell Dragon Rage, You have been a great use." Aaron thought to himself.

Noel stared at the Pokemon in front of her and shrugged. "Last chance, walk away." Noel told them hoping to get them to leave, sadly for her they would not do it, they seemed to not of cared that Noel just Knocked out a Aggron with little effort. "Alright then, i gave you a chance." Noel told them before dashing at the Pokemon forming the Bone Rush as she moved.

The Pokemon threw their bones at Noel, lucky for her she managed to deflect them all with her own, once she was close enough she deformed the attack and Force Palmed the Marowak away, Noel used her opposing arm to fire a Psychic attack at one of the Cubones sending it backwards .

Noel was hit in the side by the other Cubone, she felt the pain but didn't let it bother her too much, she then grabbed the Pokemon and Force Palmed it right in the stomach sending it backwards, all of the Pokemon were still up but wounded.

The Arons didn't know what to do in this situation. Yes, they were stronger then Aaron in regards to strengths. However, nothing had prepared them for Aaron's Focus blast. They do know one thing though, the little Denio can't target them all. One of the Aron signaled the other Arons to pile on Aaron. Their plan was to scratch Aaron with Metal Claw until he can't take it anymore. Aaron was caught off guard by all of their movements and quickly fired another Focus blast. It missed however and the Arons were scratching his entire body from his torso, to his head. Aaron Panicked, those scratches was hurting like hell! He could feel his whole body wearing down at the moment too. "Get off of me!" Aaron was quick to launch another Focus Blast, knocking One of the Aron back, knocking it out. However, this didn't stop the rest of the Aron's onslaught of Metal claws.

Noel watched all three of the Pokemon rush her with their bones, Noel decided to just stand there as each attack went for her, she then turned slightly causing the Cubones to miss her leg and stomach, the Marowak was still going for her head but she grabbed the Pokemon in mid air, Noel smirked and stared at the Marowak. "You don goofed." Noel said before slamming the Pokemon to the ground and hitting it with a force palm making it go farther into the ground.

Both the Cubones looked at Noel with fear, she looked back with her red eyes staring at them, easy to say they just ran away from the Lucario, don't wanna get involved in that.

Aaron tried to shake the Arons off of him to no avail. He have to keep attacking, it was the only way to get them off of him. Aaron Fired his Focus blast again, causing another Aron to fall victim to his attack. the Aron quickly backed off, making sure he wasn't next to get hit by Aaron attack. Aaron is looking really bad at this point. There were bruises and scratches everywhere on the poor Deino's body. He was about to cry in pain. He wasn't used to this type of pain, every part of him hurts so much. He just need to fire one more Focus blast, after that he could lay down and recover. The Aron decided to change tactics and zigzag his way for one last Metal claw. Aaron tired to ignore the pain, focusing his mind on his target. One shoot is all he need. He fires his Focus blast. "GAHH!" Did... Did Aaron hit him? Wait, there were two more scent... Oh no.

He was successful beating that Last Arons. However, He now have to face two Larion. "I... I can't do it... Its hurts..." Aaron collapsed. "Help... Please..." He couldn't fight anymore. He was used up almost all of his energy doing those Focus blast. Not to mention he was hurt. Every time he moves brings more agony to his body. He just can't take it anymore, even with Noel's encouragement.

Noel looked back and started running towards Aaron, she pulled back her fist ready to use force palm when something grabbed her leg, she looked down to see the Aggron holding her by her left leg. "You gotta be kidding." Noel managed to say before getting spun around and thrown towards the other Pokemon, Noel hit the ground and managed to catch herself, landing on her feet she held one arm down to slow herself. Once Noel looked up the Aggron was on her stabbing both of its horns with an attempted to stab Noel.

Noel moved just enough not get get impaled by the Pokemon, but she was caught in between his horns, the Aggron ran forward slamming Noel into a wall. Noel was trapped, couldn't hit the Aggron from her position nor could she use Bone Rush to hit him, her arm was near her bag and she could only think of one way Aaron and her could get out of this.

Noel reached in her bag and pulled out a small blue orb, she had found it but had no idea what it would do. "Please nothing bad." Noel hoped and threw the orb at the ground, Noel waited a few moments before she heard snoring, she looked at the Aggron and sure enough it was fast asleep.

Noel looked up and saw that everyone aside from her allies was asleep. "Sleep orb, weird." Noel said, then she realized she was kinda stuck, Noel squirmed free from the Aggron and fell to the ground, she rolled on her side making sure not to wake the Pokemon up.

(Gotta love slumber orbs.)

Aaron simply laid there, unable to do anything at this point. He needed a berry, and he need it now. "Noel... Please... It hurts so much..." Aaron silently sob to himself. He knew he had to deal with stuff like this. But, Aaron wasn't used to this much pain. He wanted it to stop. All he wanted was a joy ribbon. He didn't ask for this much pain. He couldn't do anything, he was afraid to get hurt any further. "Please... Make it stop... Make the pain go away..." Is this what he expecting when he fights? What if he did fight a legendary? They would probably kill him without a second thought. All he wanted is get stronger, not suffer. He knew about the consequences yet he never considered it until now. In the first time in his life, he was afraid to fight. "...I'm scared..."

The Larion stomped their way to Aaron, ensuring to give the Dragon type the finishing blow.

Noel was there in a heartbeat, she stood in front of Aaron having wounds herself. "Sorry I'm late." Noel muttered out before getting into her fighting stance, her red eyes looked harsher then while she was fighting the other Pokemon. One of the Larions charged her only to be met with her Force Palm, this sent if flying backwards and caused it to crash to the ground, since Noel was able to take on a Aggron it was clear these two wouldn't be much of a match.

The other one went up to her unafraid, too bad for him. Noel formed the Bone Rush between her paws and beat the Lairon with the super effective attack, after Noel finished with her barrage she ended it with a force palm it the side of its head knocking it out and sending it flying.

Noel looked around the area, any other Pokemon had either left from fear, or other reasons Noel didn't know. Noel looked at Aaron herself beat up. Noel reached in her pack and pulled out two Oran berries. "Here, take them." Noel said offering Aaron the berries, he voice showed no fear despite what had happened.
