Laura Bette Kaye the Umbreon
Prankster Platoon
Bloodpit Arena, Lytala City
Affected RPers: @Neo Emolga @Velocity
“I hope you know what you’re doing,” Aria hissed in Laura’s ear. “Because I am
this close to simply abandoning you, if you can Teleport out so easily--”
“Don’t expect to do any business with the Platoon after if you do desert,” Laura said.
“I don’t anyway. I’m leaving your psychotic ways behi--”
The sound of rushing water echoed down the corridors as something barrelled into Kirrun with a Waterfall, causing both to crash into Aria. The mismagius let out a scream that was part pain, part surprise, and part frustration as she quickly went intangible.
Kirrun’s eyes glowed brilliantly as he tried throwing his oppressor off of him, but the swampert that had tackled him spat up a mud bomb over his eyes before whipping out a gun that looked like it belonged on the hood of an armored vehicle and unloading a round into Kirrun’s face. The bullet went right through the Claydol’s eye in into his brain, killing him instantly and splattering his killer with a mixture of mud, jelly, and blood.
Kirrun the Claydol(Prankster Platoon) has been eliminated.
Simultaneous to this, Burrin the accelgor pounced on Xavier, viciously slashing the luxray’s shoulder with a wickedly serrated knife. Xavier retaliated instantly, clamping down hard on Burrin’s entire hand was a Fire Fang, until it blacked so much that Xavier managed to separate it from the Bug’s body and spit it and the knife aside.
To Burrin’s credit, the Bug didn’t scream, or even make a peep. Burrin simply jerked backwards, before grabbing Xavier with his remaining hand which began glowing a soothing green color as Giga Drain was used. Xavier let out a retching sound.
Xavier allowed electricity to pulse through his claws and he used his paws to shove Burrin away, as he prepared an Iron Tail. He quickly whirled around, wildly beating his foe with his taill, not even bothering to aim. Burrin frantically let loose a Bug Buzz, and while Xavier flattened his ears in an attempt to blot out the noise, he refused to be deterred.
Xavier whirled back around, flames dancing about his fangs as he lunged at the accelgor again, pinning the insect down to the ground before making another move.
Burrin tried headbutting Xavier with a Quick Attack, but the only response that Xavier had for him was another Fire Fang, buried deeply in Burrin’s skull. Burrin jerked once, then fell limp until death.
Burrin the Accelgor(Shadow Mask) has been eliminated.
Aria Kantra rematerialized, eyes shining green as she conjured multiple Magical Leaves, sending them to plague Muno. They all scored direct hits across the swampert’s back, and he turned to glare angrily at the spectre.
However, it was not Muno who retaliated against Aria. Zill the mimikyu leaped up, a rapid Shadow Sneak striking Aria long before she could dodge. Aria scowled at the cloaked ghost, hurling a volley of Shadow Balls down on her. Zill was totally unfazed, the sickening
crack! of a Disguise shattering causing Laura and Xavier to wince in mild disgust. It sounded almost exactly like a spine snapping.
Zill let forth a maniacal cackle, slapping Aria with an Astonish and following up with a punishing Wood Hammer. Aria lay stunned on the ground for a split second before coming to her senses, becoming intangible and allowing herself to sink below the Arena’s floor, mere moments before Muno’s bullets left holes where she had just been. Humiliated and badly injured, Aria Kantra fled the Bloodpit Arena.
Aria the mismagius(Prankster Platoon) has left the battlefield.
The remaining members of the Shadow Mask turned their attention to the remaining two members of the Prankster Platoon.
Zill descended upon Laura with Play Rough, only to run into a Protect created by the umbreon. Laura glared viciously at Zill, her fangs out as she obviously prepared a Toxic. The Protect dropped, and the moment it did Laura unleashed a stream of Toxic directly into Zill’s eyes.
Zill let out an annoyed shriek. “
YEERGH! Kako scum!”
Laura didn’t paused a moment, she went down hard upon the cloaked sprite with an Iron Tail. Again, and again, and again, before turning around and plunging her twin knives into Zill again, just to make sure.
Zill the mimikyu(Shadow Mask) has been eliminated.
Xavier had not been faring so well.
The moment Zill had claimed Laura as her adversary, Muno had turned back to Xavier. He had punched Xavier clear into a wall with a Hammer Arm, temporarily stunning the Electric type, and there was the audible cracking of bones heard. Xavier slid the the floor, before scrambling to his feet and letting electricity blaze through his rings and claws as brightly as he could manage, blinding Muno. And Xavier was racing towards where he had been hurled from, pouncing and attacking with Giga Impact, causing Muno to slide back several inches.
Muno took out his oversized gun once more, moving to pour lead into Xavier’s head, when suddenly the tibia and fibula in his right leg were shattered by Laura’s well-timed Foul Play attack. He crumpled to the ground, falling on top of Xavier, and Laura leaped on top of him. Laura winced as she heard more ominous cracking from Xavier.
Even though Muno was badly injured, he raised up an arm, swinging wildly and managing to clout Laura on the side. She exhaled rapidly as pain exploded all along that side. She thought maybe she had cracked a rib.
Laura leaped off Muno, moving around to where she could see his throat, and quickly slit it with her knife.
Muno the swampert(Shadow Mask) has been eliminated.
Laura knew her work was not yet done.
She tapped into the powers of her Blaze Jewel once more, eyes glowing bright silver as she used telekinesis to throw Muno’s corpse off of Xavier. She sent a Heal Pulse into Xavier, and again.
“Laura?” he asked. “...Is everyone else…?”
Laura sat down. Her muscles were burning, her heart couldn’t stop pounding. She used Moonlight on herself. “The Shadow Mask ambushed us. They’re all dead. But they got Kirrun. And Aria ran.” She hung her head. “...We’re the only Pranksters left. Are you…?”
“I’m… I’ll be fine. Cracked ribs, I think. Solicc hit me hard,” Xavier said. “Are… We need to leave.”
“
No. We’ve decimated two teams already. We
are going to win this.”
“We’ve already qualified for the finals just by being here! You need to f***ing survive! Teleport us out!” Xavier hissed.
“
No. We’ve come so far already,” Laura snapped back. “Can you stand?”
“No.”
“Liar.”
Xavier sighed, and slowly stood up. “Laura. You want to make a f***ing statement? Look around. We killed half the Thundercrash Gang. We killed
all the Shadow Mask. And now there’s only us left-- and it’s going to be hard to defend ourselves with just two.”
Laura thought for a second. “...We can make it. I’ll guide you.”
Xavier shook his head. “I’m not moving unless it’s to leave.”
“Xavier, we
can--”
“No. We
cannot. It’s lucky that we got this far. We. Are.
Leaving. I know you can be stubborn but I’m done indulging you, and if you keep trying to stay I am knocking you out and digging a tunnel out of here, and I will drag you along,” Xavier growled.
Laura thought for a moment.
“Fine,” she said.
She trotted over to Xavier, and teleported them both to Connive.
Laura the Umbreon and Xavier the Luxray(Prankster Platoon) have left the battlefield.
Laura used her Psychic Blaze Jewel one last time, to send a telepathic message. ‘
Hey Jacobin, we’re back… We need better healing…’
