(Let's get the plot rolling now, shall we?)
RGS, FHS, LVS, PSS
Fractured Heavens Safehaven
ARPers: @Neo Emolga @Alphys @Gef @Morzone
Upon hearing Torch’s words, Knight stepped closer to the magmortar. He suddenly seemed a lot taller. He was probably using an illusion. “I may not be your leader, however I am your beta, more powerful than you in battle, more mature than you, at a higher rank, more intelligent than you, more courteous than you, and will be your leader if Crim is forced to step down. I recommend that you listen to and respect me. That was not an insult, it was the truth.”
“If you keep disrespecting my beta, I give him full authority to escort you out, and proper punishment will be assigned upon our return to the Safehaven,” Crim said in response to Torch. She turned back to Stone. She was silent for several seconds, before muttering “I suppose it would be a waste of time, energy, and supplies to have crossed the mountains once only to return right away…”
Those who had sensed the presence momentarily surfacing before would feel it again.
The last time, though, it had felt like a wailord coming up for air for a second. This time it felt like the wailord was leaping out of the water, doing a double backflip, and making the most attention-grabbing splash possible when it landed back in the ocean.
At the same time, some sort of misty shadow-like substance was forming in one of the unnocupied corners of the room, beginning to congeal into a rather nightmarish figure.
It was black. That was the most obvious thing about it. It was unclear if the blackness was fur or skin. Its legs were shifting and didn’t appear entirely corporeal, and they had no depth. Some parts of the creature were still wispy, trailing off into nothingness and moving constantly like smoke in the wind. It had clawlike hands, set on scrawny arms. The entire creature was rather gaunt and thin, it was possible to count its ribs.
Obscuring the creature’s neck and mouth was a collar of massive, sharp looking red spikes, almost like fangs. It had wispy, long white hair that seemed lighter than air. Some of the hair obscured the creature’s right eye. It was, however, possible to see its left eye, which was a light cerulean color, and seemed to glow.
Upon feeling the presence, Aurora’s, Yuko’s, and Crim’s heads snapped to the corner of the room where the creature formed immediately. When the strange black mist and appeared and formed into that thing, the other Safehaven leaders and betas in the room had turned their attention to it, as well.
“Legendary,” Yuko hissed, fur fluffing up in shock. “Dark type.”
Crownless and Silver were the first to react. Crownless stood up, thrusting out his left hand, and used Stone Edge, a massive stone claymore appearing in it. With his right hand, he used Fire Punch, a wreath of flames dancing about his claws.
Sparks shot from Silver’s cheeks, making his yellow cheeks turn blue with electricity. He immediately began racing on all fours towards the creature, preparing a Nuzzle.
Yuko and Knight were the next to react among the leaders and betas. The delphox started reciting a Lucky Chant and setting up Protects around herself and those from her Safehaven.
Knight, on the other hand, used Hone Claws and leaped towards the creature. Knight had intended to use a Sucker Punch, and therefore arrived before the other Pokemon, however the attack never formed. The creature wasn’t preparing any moves at the moment, apparently.
The creature put up its hands in defense. It narrowed its one visible eye, seeming ready to dodge.
Perish, Clara, Starr
Fullmoon Highway
ARPers: @The Nonexistent Tazz
Upon seeing the machamp and chatot turn around, and the chatot release their attack, Perish sighed, figured there was nothing to lose from releasing the Energy Ball, and did so while bracing herself for the attack. She did not figure there to be enough time for her to dodge with a Phantom Force.
So instead she simply took the attack, biting down on her lip to keep from crying out in pain.
Upon hearing that there was a charmeleon directly behind her, Perish smirked in triumph. ‘Thank you very much, Ms. Mysterious Psychic, for that piece of information. She whirled about, and sucked the life force from the charmeleon with a Pain Split attack, intending to replenish her health somewhat.
To the north, Starr scrambled backwards. The scolipede took down the Protect to ready a Poison Tail, only for Starr to ram himself into the scolipede’s underbelly with a powerful Headbutt attack. The scolipede recoiled, and Starr immediately followed up with an Iron Tail on one of the scolipede’s front legs.
The scolipede leaned back, putting its weight on its back legs, before its horned shone bright green, and the centipede stabbed them into Starr as it used Megahorn. Starr inhaled sharply, and pulled away from the scolipede, flinging a Sand Attack into the Bug’s eyes to temporarily blind and distract it.
Clara, on the other hand, wasted no time in trying to nail the nearby chatot who had landed nearby with a Rollout.
The blaziken was clearly rather distressed by the samurott that was suddenly attacking it. The Aqua Jet caused it to fly backwards and land on the ground, although it managed to leap back up and into action rather quickly. It inhaled deeply, using Agility, before attempting to land two fearsome hits on Oceanus with a Double Kick. The blaziken then tried to strike with a powerful Sky Uppercut attack on Oceanus’ chin.
