After your chat with Papritz, you decide to head back to Emissary base and prepare for whatever might come tonight. However, on the way there, you look around you and notice you're completely alone. Suddenly, things don't seem right, and then for a minute, you realize you're not alone as you think you are.

Your attacker doesn't even announce their presence. They simply attempt to kill you from behind without even so much as a word...

ABYSS HUNTER HOSTILE ATTACK!
For your battle audio pleasure

Madder, Small, Ghost/Fairy type. 8 HP, 40% dodge rate, 1d2 attack die. 96 Speed.
Anxia: Agent of Payload, Small, Fire type. 8 HP, 40% dodge rate, 1d2+2 attack die. 65 Speed.

Madder Strikes First!

Fight!

Despite Anxia's attempt to ambush and assassinate you from behind, your experience and knowledge of stealth surpasses hers. Upon quickly turning around and seeing the Abyssal Charmander attempt to strike you in the back of the head, you unleash your ghostly flare upon her, attempting to catch her before she gets to make her attack.

Madder rolls 32%! Miss!
Xanxia: 8HP remaining.

She deftly dodges out of the way, allowing the shadowy flare to strike a nearby rock instead. She then opens her mouth and spits out a torrent of flames and fire in your direction, and you can feel the heat burning hotter than usual, but it seems something infernal is at work as well, empowering the fiery assault to be far more deadlier than usual.

Xanxia rolls 76%, hit! 1 point of damage +2 (you cannot grasp the true nature of this Abyssal force) = 3 points of damage.
Madder: 5HP remaining.

The fire eats at you, and you growl back, channeling your pain and anger into fury. This Charmander doesn't look right at all, and you can sense an infernal presence to her. Regardless, you unleash a dark, cyclone of nether energies in her direction, attempting to swarm her from all directions.

Madder rolls 49%! Hit! 1 point of damage.
Xanxia: 7HP remaining.

She's able to escape most of the nether swarm, but a few of the dark tendrils manage to get a few painful licks at her before they fade. Racing toward you, she opens her mouth and coughs out a blazing fireball, radiating with extreme heat.

Xanxia rolls 76%, hit! 1 point of damage +2 (you cannot grasp the true nature of this Abyssal force) = 3 points of damage.
Madder: 2HP remaining.

Despite your best efforts to evade the fiery fury, it slams into you and the burning savagely eats at you. You just barely manage to put out the fire before it overwhelms you.

Moving in quickly, you create a web of ghostly, spidery tendrils of nether to wrap and ravage Xanxia, once again trying to give her nowhere to run except into your trap.

Madder rolls 53%! Hit! 1 point of damage.
Xanxia: 6HP remaining.

As you expect, the nether gives her no quarter, but she's unexpectedly good at trying to minimize the damage. The ghostly nether whips and lashes at her, but not as much as you were hoping for.

"I'Ll enJoY waTCHiNG yoU DiE!" she howls with an ungodly, unnatural scream.

She vomits out another wave of hideous flames, and you brace yourself, trying to anticipate the best time and way to evade...

Xanxia rolls 53%, hit! 2 points of damage +2 (you cannot grasp the true nature of this Abyssal force) = 4 points of damage.
Madder: -2 remaining.

Despite your best efforts, the fire comes and surrounds you from everywhere and becomes too much for you to handle. You try to minimize the damage and pain by dashing through the least immolated areas, but it proves to be futile. The flames eat at you and the last of your energy and stamina is sapped out of you with the fire...

You feel nothing but haze, pain, and heat as your vision fades...

Madder the Mimikyu has been knocked out.

...

You aren't able to see, but you can feel yourself being lugged around like a sack of potatoes, given not an ounce of care or regard. You can't move, and your body stings from the savage burns. Despite all your rage and scorn for this repulsive Charmander, revenge will have to wait. But you're already scheming about all the ways you're going to make the Abyss loathe their own existence once you're through with them.

Madder the Mimikyu has been captured by the Stalkers.

The Emissaries must embark on a rescue mission to rescue their captured companion.
