"There were two
pokemon in here without pokeballs, an umbreon and an espeon."
As soon as Cor
held up his torch, though, he was immediately assaulted by the screaching and
panicing Prorewyr.
Cor was knocked off
his feet and he struggled to get Prorewyr under control,finally wrapping the
demon in his poncho,unable to move it finally settled down though didn`t stop
its hissing and screeching.
"shut up I`m taking you to Cadrien"
He
picked up the PET,"right I`ll bring you along this time too...now to find the
pokemon"
As FireMaker help to lift things, he called back to Racqel. "Go get your mother." "Ok." Racqel took of to the resturant and dashed into the kitchen. She accidently sent TAX in a spin when she went through the door. "Mommy. MOMMY!" "What is it? You sound like something happen." "Something did happen. Daddy said that you might be needed." "But the lunch crowd." "That will have to wait. People might need water and healing." "Ok. I'm on my way." Redwaters threw off her apron, filled containers full of water, and went dashing out. Riko didn't have time to stop her, nor did TAX have a chance of getting out of the way when he got up. The two made it back to the crater and awaited any special orders.
T.A.X had just
about exploded...with electricity. Luckly Zero was there to flatten him with a
pot full of curry, leaving the lightning reploid plushitized, out cold and
almost flat headed.
Zero: Heh...I'll be expecting poodle hair when he
wakes up... 
Seeming to
understand, the Misdreavus reappeared through one of the boulders. It bobbed up
and down over it until Cor moved it, revealing the two pokemon in question lying
over their trainer. The espeon raised its head and whined softly.
AX ran
over, "Thank gods, a healer! You see, what happened was, when I was closing up,
Arthur and Dylath forgot to-" he stopped as Dylath's staff hit him square in the
back of the head. He muttered something about his helmet being cheap, and fell
over. Arthur ran over, "let's just say some villains escaped, one of whom-" he
indicated the plushie lying in AX's hand "-did some serious damage be she was
stopped. The others escaped, but right now there's some kids and pokemon that
were down here during the explosion. We got the worst one in a bacta tank, but
there's more on the way."
Across town, Kikuchiyo wandered into an alley,
the pounding in his head somewhat subsided, but still there. He heard the pat of
feet behind him. "Kopi, pak?"
"Eh, tidak, tetapi 'kasi..." he turned around,
"Andah tahu Bahasa Indonesia?"
His new aquantance nodded. "Yah, dan saya
tahu... Autor X juga. Mereka telah perlop disana. Mereka akan lupa
serega."
Kikuchiyo blinked, obviously missing what the other was getting
at.
There was some reevaluation of strategy. "Eh... saya memiliki bir
juga."
Cor nodded and even
though he was running out of room had the pokemon hang onto their trainer as he
set a demon on top and finally with a sigh of exhaustion he fell back through a
shadow,landing outside the blockage.
"medic!"
He set them
down,making sure to take his poncho off Prorewyr before it got too badly
shredded.He took out the PET from his pocket,"okay Arthur anyone else left in
there to your memory?"
He nodded,
"Kh'lar's op and my mine, that's it."
Cor sighed and looked at AX, "You have
too many characters."
The other Arthur nodded, "We've noticed."
Prorewyr,
now free, skittered over and on to the bacta tank, whimpering. Dylath walked
over and scratched him on the back of his head until he calmed down and
scampered down Dylath's arm and around his neck, keeping one eye on the
tank.
Cor looked back at
them as he made his way to a suitably large shadow,"ah well,could be worse,this
could`ve happened at KMT,saving every RM and Mav would`ve taken hours..",he
closed his eyes and fell through landing back in the blocked
area.
"alright hopefully they`ll be concious,makes things a tad
easier..hello?"
---
Dragoon parked near the front of Lisas
resturant,"alright well,I might as well call in as well and get my
breakfast"
---
Tom walked back into his office,a few tentacles
tried to reach out at him but they were deterred by 12 guage shells,he reloaded
the sawn-off he kept in his drawer and sat down with his notepad,pen and a
bottle of faygo.
"gotta think of something that can get us some cash
quick...."
There was a small earthquake in the studio and a large graboid
burst out of the studio floor sending most of the crew on their lunch break well
out of the road,Vile walked in,with his helmet back on and a hell of a
headache,rubbing its side.
"whos a good lil graboid,oh yes she is,yes she
is.....you guys tell anyone that I speak like this to Bertha and you get to see
her inside,understand?"
"What took you?!"
Riko shouted at Lisa, who was just stepping thru the front door.
"It took
me a lot longer than I realized to face my fear." Lisa sighed as she pressed a
button on her wrist device. The armor instantly switched out into her regular
outfit, and she put on an apron as she assumed her position at the counter.
"Okay, Riko, go in the back and help cook. Oi, Lyra! Time for your waitress
shift!"
Within a half-hour, things were finally running smoothly again at
Lisa's restaurant--well, as smoothly as it usually goes.
"Where's my
sammich, woman?!"
"Shuddap, Plague! It's cookin'!"
"Over here." The two twins were under a surprisingly intact table, which was supporting a fair amount of rubble, and they looked mostly unharmed. Axel crawled out, "I'm fine, but my sister twisted her ankle. Fortunately, Author X made all of his tables and desks strong enough to withstand a nuke."
"alright,well lets get you both out of here in one go,I don`t feel like making 2 trips"
India looked around
at everything.
"I can help heal."
Cor feel back into
the main area,setting down the ops and he fell against a wall,sliding down
it.
"....that takes....too much...outta me..."
Axle helped his
sister up, and they both clung to Cor as he brought them out to the lab proper.
At about the same time, Yakko, the misdreavus, began bringing pokeballs out of
the wreckage one by one. As the healers were helping Farrun and his pokemon, AX
(who had removed his helmet and was rubbing the back of his head) and Dylath
methodically checked the rest of the characters in stasis. "It seems like the
only ones missing are the three mavericks and Medley, but I still keep on
getting the feeling I'm missing something important."
"Well, boss, are any of
them holograms?"
"Hah! First thing I checked, followed by lifesigns. I'd have
to be truly inane to just go by who looks like they're there after a breakout.
At any rate, the mavericks are our first priority."
Again across town, in
a condemned apartment building, Medley was pacing back and forth. "Alright,
where is he. He said there was something he had to tell us that we'd be
interested in, so where is he?"
Wind Roc leaned over and whispered to
Shadow Demon "am I the only one who finds this creapy?"
"Quiet. You know he
broke us and the crazy b**** out, so we might as well hang around. Besides, his
powers could be... useful if he joins us."
Medley was suddenly lifting Demon
off the ground by the throat before he or Roc knew what was happening, "Hah,
join you. You will follow me if you value your life, that is why I
freed you. While I appreciate your being the source of the virus that now gives
me a new purpose and vigor, I would not hesitate to conclude any of you three.
If you've never fought both your teamates at once, please give me an excuse to
bestow you the pleasure."
Speed Meercat was oblivious, hopping around the
room and excercising like mad. "I'm just glad we can finally stretch our
legs!"
Tom was now on the
move,he needed air,walking the streets he continued to tap his pen on the
notepad,a blank peice of paper.
"gotta be a way to make
money..."
His ears twitched on hearing something from an
alleyway.
"an finally stretch our legs"
"....eh?"
He shook
his head and followed the sound of it.
---
Cor let out a sigh of
exhaustion,"can someone help me up,I have a couch at home to get back
to"
A ripple went
across Medley's armour/skin as he changed. "Someone aproaches, but not him...
someone else."
He and Demon both cloaked, and they stepped to either side of
the hallway, and Meercat ran down and into a door. Roc, half-squatting and
possibly more conspicuous than anything else in the hall combined, looked back
and forth, panicing. As Tom looked through the open doorway, he raised his palms
forward and the turbines were already picking up speed.
"Dammit, Roc, don't
you dare! You could destroy the whole building and lead them right to
us!"
But he ignored Demon, and only raised his wingspan to keep the others
from being sucked down in the increasing current. "Malicious
Tempest!"
Arthur held a hand out to help up Cor. "Of course. Thank you
very much for helping us out, I think you did most of the work."
Tom was pushed off
his feet by the wind but stabbed his still wrapped up Kougan Anki into the
ground to anchor himself to it.
"woah...what the hell,indoor
tornado"
"TEMPEST BREAKER!!"
a stormcloud filled with lightning and with sharp edges spun its way towards
Roc.
Skye stepped out of cloaking form, completely out of armor.
"Come on
you lil bastards."
Roc took the blow,
and was pushed back almost a foot. He did, however, cut off his attack, and
lower his wings. Almost instantly, there was someone standing directly behind
Skye. He wrapped one arm around her, pinning her arms to her sides, and clasped
the other clawed hand over her mouth. They had both very surprising strength and
speed. "Ah, hello, Skye, we meet again."
Tom also found himself suddenly in a
hold, with Meercat's boomerang around his neck. After a moment, Shadow Demon
appeared in front of him, and pressed his claws against his forhead. "Sorry, but
we're exsspecting someone soon."
What looked like a metool wearing half a
coconut instead of a helmet waddled in. "I see we have some visitors. Sorry to
keep you waiting."
Skye pulled and threw the majority of her strength into the twisting bind she had. She growled and then bit the hand that was over her mouth.
Tom tried to keep
his eyes open and struggle but found it useless,he looked down and saw the
Kougan Anki laying there,he slammed his foot down on it,the blunt end slamming
into Shadow Demons chin.
"get fucked I`m a party crasher"
There
was a faint whirling sound and a round scissor blade sliced Meerkats midsection
before returning to its owner.
"dammit Skye always running off
alone"
Dylath groaned,
"Please, not him. Anyone but him."
"Look, there's three, no,
four mavericks out there, and we're gonna have to get them back in here.
There's obviously going to be a battle, and he's gonna have to be there if I'm
going to fight."
"Do you really have to-"
"Yes! Right now, there's me,
you, Arthur, and Kikuchiyo active and able to fight."
The cryo tank finished
reanimation and slid open. Fred floated out. "Hi, everybody! Isn't it a
wonderful day?"
"Where the hell is Kikuchiyo, anyway?"
Maverick
Medley, in a superhuman show of dexterity, growled and flipped Skye up so that
he could hold her arms with his right leg and held up his now-free left hand in
San's direction. "Tempest Breaker!"
At the same time, Demon stumbled back and
leapt at Tom, stealthing as he did so.
Meercat looked down, somewhat
surprised. He looked up at the met, "fifth door from the end on the left, drawer
in a dresser." He ran off down the hall as fast as he could.
San spun the
Rolling cutter trying to repel the wind,slowly being forced back but staying
steady.
---
Tom had no way of sensing him so did the thing anyone
would`ve done,spun his Kougan Anki in random directions,eventually he`d hit
something.
Galen was
late.
The young man was kicking himself as he ran to Lisa's restaurant.
It was his first day back after the week-long celebration of the New Year, and
he was late.
"Why, oh, why did I drink so much sake last night?!" He
actually wailed as he ran by a certain house...and stopped when he heard
fighting. He didn't know what to do--until he heard Tom's voice:
"I'm a
party crasher!"
Galen immediately unsheathed the blade he always kept,
and silently looked onto the battlefield to see if Tom or any honorable, goodly
warrior needed help.
Shadow Demon wasbeing tracked however,a shoulder cannon following his movements,Vile sitting atop the rooftop charing up his stun shot.
Skye did what she thought of. Twisting she slamed her foot up into the archway of the young mans legs.
Shadow Demon hopped
back and forth in front of Tom, and quickly slashed when he turned around,
jumping away again immediately.
Kikuchiyo stepped forward, blocking Galen's
way. He held his own sword sideways, the flat end facing Galen. "I ca- I canna
let you pa... tidak bertukar! No pass!" He swayed a bit and almost
stumbled.
Wind Roc continued plodding slowly down the hall toward the
battle.
Skye noticed he
wasnt responding, so she tried it again and tried her hardest to pull herself
away.
'If only I could....' she tried to pull one arm away. 'get one hand
free...'
Tom yelled in pain
as the blade cut down his back in a thin
line.
"argh...uhn..."
Demon didn`t have anymore time though as
Vile opened fire,a barrage of stun shots heading for him.
Galen's eyebrow
knitted together. "But I must help Tom! He--"
He had to suddenly duck in
order to not be hit by Vile's shots.
The met returned
with a small roll of duct tape in his mouth and spat it up to Meercat's hand.
There was a short blur, and he was patched up sloppily.
Demon noticed the
shots and began dodging, but then one of them hit the stealth generator on his
waist, shorting it out. "Dammit, that always happens!"
Medley's eyes
began to glow as the maverick virus continued to infiltrate his programming. He
dug his claws into Skye's cheeks, and said, under his breath, "kill...
human..."
Finally, Roc reached the battle by the doorway and grabbed at Tom
with a ham-sized fist.
The met ran forward, "No! Retreat now!"
Medley
shook his head furiosly. "Blood..."
San couldn`t stand
him touching Skye and charged towards Medley plunging the blade of the rolling
cutter into the mavs body.
"LET HER GO DAMMIT!"
---
Tom
tried to dodge but instead picked the time to change the Kougan Anki into its
bow form,when Roc finally had him in his grip a gold shafted arrow was already
notched and he let loose.
"NO!!!" Galen lunged himself at Roc, sword raised to slash off his arm if need be.
Skye pulled her
hand free at this time and double tapped the orb on her necklace.
A bolt
of lightning struck into Medley as she appeared in her armour, trident out. She
dove into him, ramming the blunt edge into the forhead area.
The Met was stopped
in its tracks by a black fliptop.
"ello buddy boi,ope ya dunnae tink yur
gettin any turther"
Medley roared,
threw the two biodroids off of him, and began charging for some sort of
attack.
Kikuchiyo staggered over and knocked Galen to the side with a grace
or lack there-of that suggested he, if not neccissarily a skilled
fighter, was actually better drunk.
Roc growled as the arrow hit him in the
eye. He held up his captive and just smacked him once or twice with other
gigantic hand.
"Dammit, why are there so many drunk people in this city!"
The metool jumped forward, leapt off the fliptop, smacked Medley with his foot,
rebounded off of Medley's face and kicked the back of Meercat's head as he went
by, kicked off of Demon's head, and finally landed on Roc's shoulder. He leaned
over and shouted in his ear, "I'm the mastermind, and goddamit, when I say
retreat, we RETREAT!!!"
Roc smashed a tangental path out through the
wall, since he was close enough to the door already, followed by Demon. Medley
hissed and ran after them, somehow looking less human than when they had begun
the battle. Meercat bounded forward, slapped San lightly on the face a couple of
times, and disapeared before he could react. As Wind Roc opened his wingspan in
the relatively cramped alley and activated his turbines, the metool turned and
gave one last order, "Mundurnya!" Kikuchiyo nodded and leapt over
Galen.
OOC: This will be
during the fighting, just after everyone was pulled out of the
crater.
IC: Rw nodded to Authur and proceed to heal those that were
brought to her that needed the attention. Racqel stood nearby, handing out cups
of water to those that needed it. FireMaker pulled himself out of the crater as
soon as all were out and safe on firm
ground.
----------------------
The twins, one at each, watched
overhead at the fighting going on down below them. The looked on with intrest
and cheered on the good guys to a victory.
Dylath convinced AX to revive Alpheus and signal Cremo (who didn't stay at the lab, and was probably still asleep. At least, sleep was the only reason they could think of that he would miss the free pyrotechnics show) so that he could stay and watch over the lab and everyone here, as well as get started on the containment units. Arthur said he would help Cor get home and then look for someplace to buy replacement hardware (also grumbling about how he always payed for everyone).
Skye picked herself
up off the ground and shook off, the claw marks dripping blood onto the floor
giving the look that her eyestreaks were bleeding themselves. She double tapped
the orb and her armour disappeared.
She left then, to the
crater.
----------
"AX?" She called out into the fray. "There's
some news about your missing people..."
San walked by Skyes
side,she didn`t notice until a cloth brushed against the claw marks wiping off
the blood.
"you should get those cleaned once we get to the explosion
site"
---
Cor staggered through his door after being dropped off
and put his arms around the sleeping Tia,curling up on the couch.
"ah
sleep,perchance to dream"
---
Tom picked himself up off the
ground,rubbing his back.
"ow....mental note,move
FASTER"
