Alora heard voices, and could only pick up 2 names. Heart and Soul.

Ross stated, "Do you hear that mom?"

OOC: @Darchangel- oh, I'm sorry, I completely forgot about you!

Right now the characters are going through a shortcut through Apple City to the Outlaws' base camp. everyone has agreed to take the shortcut and are currently following Heart.

@MugoUrth- I guess you could do something kind of like zook did and just follow us for now, since I want Darchangel to get caught up to speed.

OOC: Okay, what exactly should I be doing now then?

OOC: Darchangel, how about you do what I done and just follow what Pankakesparx456 until something happens? I might change it up a little however...

Vern and Migx continue to follow.

OOC: @zookinator, okay.

Heart continued to lead the way until he quickly stopped. He looked at all the other Pokémon and motioned a finger over his mouth. Slowly, he crept up around the corner.

"Alright guys, all clear. We're here. First priority is to find Crystal. Once we find her, loot as much as you can from this place. We may not have enough time."

"Heart, Tika, and I will head up and look for Crystal." Soul said. "Anyone joining us or will you guys loot the place?"

- - -
Crystal awoke yet again, this time to the sound of Pokemies. Suddenly she shot awake, and noticed that the Outlaws were gone and the room door was wide open. She quickly realized she was strapped to a chair.

"Well, great. Now what am I gonna do?" she thought outloud. Just as she said that, a Pokemie started coming into the room.

"No, no no no!" She screamed. She quickly shot a Shadow Ball at the Pokemie, but the Pokemie shot through the wall and an entire nest of Pokemies looked directly at Crystal.

"... Perfect."

Conner was about to answer, when he suddenly heard a boom from a building. *That's strange. There aren't many things that can make a loud noise like that around. Could it possibly be--*, Conner thought, then he stood rigid. "Oh no. Pokemies. Hundreds of them. They must've been gathered in a spot I didn't know about. That loud boom was from them breaking a wall. I know where Crystal is. We have to hurry! Before she is torn apart!", Conner yelled. He then ran off, with an old bird holding on with his life, and a large dust trail following behind him.

OOC: Hi everyone. I'm sorry I left so abruptly before. I've had more time on my hands as of late, and I was wondering if I could be in the RP again.

OoC: You missed a good bit of Role Play there, amazingSpyro. All the way from the end of Page 9. I have no ideas, but if you want to return, you might want to figure out a way to easily get back to the rest of the group.

OOC: I've already got a few ideas, I just need to know if pancakesparx will let me back in. Thanks for the warning, though.

OOC:@amazingSpyro- I'd be happy to let you back into the RP. what are your ideas, if I may ask?

Vern heard the book as well. And immediately saw a torrent of Pokemies. "Great, just what we need, more mindless idiots hoping to score on a brain buffet..." When looking at the Pokemies, one in particular struck his eye. There was a large Ursaring in front of the group. One with an ear flopped down, a blackened eye and big red gloves on, also a bit on the bulky side. But that wasn't the weird part. There was also a Voltorb chained to the Ursaring, one with goggles on and a pink swirls on its body. Vern just stood there as he saw them. "Verny, what's wrong, why are you standing there?" Migx asked. And then he noticed the Ursaring and Voltorb too. "Oh wait, don't tell me, two more of your past friends? Like Francis and Rin?"

It's true. And the chain confirmed it. The Ursaring, Edgar, was chained to the Voltorb, Bentley, when Varmy put them to sleep and fed them to Pokemies. They were the other two Francis mentioned.

(Yes, I'm doing THAT again. Bringing in some more temporary NPCs for Vern.
Edit: This is the last time, I swear.)

OOC: I was going to have Calia missing from the group, at least for a while, and have Pete, Cameron, and Emily try to find their way back to the group in her absence.

Or, I was thinking about having the whole group distributing the cure for the virus, having them getting attacked by Bandits, and having Calia get captured while helping the others escape, leaving the others alone somewhere near Fourteen.

Either way, Calia's been captured or is missing for the time being.

OOC: I plan on going with the whole bandit attack thing, but I'll wait for one of you to post first.

When the torrent of Pokemies appeared, Conner was having a hard time dealing with the Pokemies. Historius then came out briefly, then said, "Conner! Use these!". He handed Conner a bag of green balls. "What are these!?", Conner yelled through the torrent. "Throw them to the ground!", Historius yelled to Conner. Conner did, and they let outa cream colored gas. When the Pokemies breathed it in, they reverted back to normal, all of the Pokemies that were coming down from the huge nest. "Historius. Could you please explain what I thrown down.", Conner said, rather stunned.

"Huh? What just happened?" The Ursaring asked after the ball was thrown towards him. "ARGH! What's going on? Why am I chained to..." The Voltorb cried out. "Edgar!?" The Ursaring looked down at the Voltorb. "Bently? What's going on?" The other Pokemies had similar reactions, they had no idea what to think.

Earlier that day...

Calia, Pete, Emily and Cameron were surrounded by bandits, cornered against a tree. "We know you have something valuable in that satchel of yours," a bandit said, gesturing to Calia's bag. "so why don't you just give it to us, and we'll leave you be." Calia stepped back and growled, "Not on your life." The bandit shrugged and said, "It's your funeral, kid. Take 'em out, boys, and get whatever's in the bag."
As the bandits charged forward, Pete let out a psybeam, sending two of them flying, and Cameron used leaf storm to temporarily blind and hurt the bandits, at least for a moment. Calia gave her bag to Emily and said, "Whatever you do, don't let the bandits get this, and stay with the boys. Get out of here, and don't stop running. I'll catch up as soon as I can. Now go! RUN!" Emily gave a brief nod and yelled, "Cameron, Pete, let's go!" As the three ran off, Calia used giga drain, magical leaf, and leaf blade on the dazed bandits. She then took off after the others. The bandit leader came up to his group and watched as Calia sprinted away. "Get the ambush team ready." He growled. Another bandit ran into the woods and emitted some strange signal. Right on cue, four Pokemon raced through the forest as fast as they could toward Emily, Pete, and Cameron. Calia was panting heavily, but looked back and saw no bandits were chasing her. She figured she could catch up to the group quickly enough. As she ran over a small hill, she saw the other three just ahead. "I'm coming!" She yelled. She saw movement in the trees just ahead, going straight for Emily. "EMILY!" she screeched. "LOOK OUT!" But she was too late. A scizor jumped out of the woods, grabbed Emily, and jumped back in. Calia's anger rose, and she disappeared into the trees, after Emily. "Cameron, Pete, Calia!" She cried. "Help me!" Calia, fueled by rage, dashed after the scizor, launched herself into the air, and using her leaf blade, crashed upon the two with a WHACK! The scizor fell, knocked out, and Emily tumbled to the ground in a heap. Calia helped Emily up, checked to make sure none of the elixir vials were broken, then the two ran back towards the others. Emily skidded out of the trees, Calia following close behind, yelling, "GO, GO, GO!" Then, as they caught up to the group again, Calia was hit by a hydro pump and knocked forcefully down another hill. "Keep going," Pete said. "I'll get Calia." Cameron nodded, and he and Emily ran towards the nearby boundaries of the city fourteen where they knew the bandits would not dare venture into at least for the time being. Pete slid down the hill and ran over to Calia. She was bruised, exhausted, and in pain. "Come on, Calia." Pete said. "Get up. We have to go." Calia shook her head. Pete stared at her in awe. "What do you mean?" He asked. "You can't give up now! Come on, we're almost to fourteen. I'll carry you the rest of the way if I have to." Calia stopped him with a look and said, "Listen to me. We don't have a lot of time. You have to go with Emily and Cameron. They need you. The ambush group is already going back for the other bandits, I assure you. They'll leave someone to guard me, but they know that if I haven't come up by now, I'm not coming." Now it was Pete's turn to shake his head. "No way." He said. "Of course you're coming." Calia sighed and stated, "I'll slow you down, and then we'll both get caught. You need to find our friends. The ones who gave us the elixir. They have to know that the bandits found out and will be coming after it. Stay in fourteen for a few days if you have to, but then take Emily and Cameron and go." Pete was not planning to let this slide, and he said, "I'm not leaving here without you, Calia. That's final." Calia's ears perked up, and she said, "They're coming back. Go now." Pete shook his head, tears began to well up in his eyes, and they threatened to spill down his cheeks. "No, Calia, PLEASE. I need you." Just then, some bandits appeared on top of the hill, and one shouted, "They're still here, sir!" Pete wildly looked from the bandits to Calia and back again. "Calia..." he murmured. "Go," Calia said. "Just go, Pete." Pete reluctantly turned away and ran toward fourteen and his friends. Calia heard one of the bandits say, "Should we go after him?" "No," the leader replied firmly. "He's not worth it. Besides, we caught one." As they walked down the hill toward Calia, she used last resort with what little strength she had left. It knocked out one bandit only, and the leader smirked and said, do it." A ways away, Pete turned around, only to find a dragonite let out a hyper beam... Directly at Calia. "CALIA!!!!!!" He screamed with all of his might. From the outskirts of fourteen, Emily heard the powerful blast. "Oh no." She said. "No no no no no NO!" Calia couldn't even open her eyes, but she managed one last word. "Pete..." She said listlessly. Then everything went dark.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Later:

Pete, Emily, and Cameron were asleep in an alley at fourteen, exhausted from their earlier chase. Pete was twitching nervously. He hadn't slept well at all, waking in fits and starts. He had seen the bandits carry Calia away, and he was helpless, not being able to do anything about it. Now, he woke up with a scream. "CALIA!" He yelled, waking up Emily and Cameron. "It's alright, Pete, it's alright." Cameron said cautiously. "You're safe, here with us." "No," Pete countered. "It's not alright. Calia's gone, and she may very well be dead!" His tears finally came, and Cameron pulled him into a tight hug, and Emily laid her head on his shoulder. "Calia's not dead." She said. "She's too strong and too smart to just let a group of petty bandit thieves kill her." Cameron nodded and asked, "Did she say anything, anything at all?" Pete nodded and said, "We need to find Migx, Vern, Soul, Heart, Crystal, Tika, Historious, and Conner. Wherever they are, that's where we need to go."

"I'll go with you guys to help your friend." said Ravyn. "But you should go loot the place, Zanni."
"Are you serious? You wanna split up?" asked Zanni.
"Don't worry I'll be fine..."
Turning her attention back to the others, she exclaimed. "We should hurry."

After they calmed down, Historius explained what the balls were. "Those balls were an experiment I cooked up in the lab while you were gone, Conner. I couldn't test it, but I thought it would work, as it was just Elixir gas packed into a ball. Those were my only ones, but they were designed to affect a large area.", Historius explained. "Why didn't you tell me about this?", Conner asked. Historius sighed, then said, "I didn't tell you because I thought you would use them in a time where you could handle it on your own. I would only have allowed those to be used in a time where the spray couldn't handle a hoard like that.". Conner nodded, showing he understood. He then stated, "Those Pokemies wouldn't have gone through the wall for no reason. We should go into the building they crashed through. Crystal might be there." With that, Conner and Historius gone into the wreckage.

Pete slowly got to his feet and began packing up. Emily walked over to help and said, "I know this is hard, but you'll find a way to get through this. We'll save Calia. Maybe not yet, but soon." Pete nodded and managed a small smile. "Thanks, Emily," he said. "Now, let's find our friends." Cameron piped up, "That's a good idea, but we don't know where they are or how we'll find them." Pete pondered this for a moment, then said, "We should check in the areas near Everest. That's where we saw them last, so they can't have gone too far. It's only been a couple of days." Emily nodded. "So what are we waiting for?" She asked. "Let's go!"

OOC: since I've been gone for a while and missed a bunch, I'm gonna say my group went along with everything else.
_______

After the whole fray with the Pokemies, Soul, Heart, and Tika followed the rest of the Pokémon, when they heard something swoop, along with Tika screaming. Soul and Heart looked behind them, and saw Blackfire grasping Tika.

"Looking for someone, fellas?" Blackfire asked as Poltergeist and Ren regrouped with him.

"Your Eevee friend is currently getting attacked by Pokemies. and we got this beauty to test on as well. So what's it gonna be, fellas?" Poltergeist said.

"You only get one choice," said Ren, "We have the whole place rigged!" Ren pulled out a box and switched it. The Pokémon noticed a bunch of blinking lights coming from the buildings above them.

"One wrong move by you, and the whole place gets blown." said Blackfire. so what's it gonna be?"

Soul and Heart were filled with rage. "I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!!" Soul screamed.

"You won't get away with this!!" Heart yelled.

"Oh, we just did! Choose wisely, Travelers!" Blackfire said as he flew off with Tika.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" Soul shouted with a fit of rage. "First Crystal, now this!? Those Pokémon are gonna regret the day they existed!!!" before long, he finally broke down.

"Well, now we have a decision to make." Heart said.

"And you get as long as you want," Ren and Poltergeist said from above. "We're generous that way." both of them took off.

"What are we going to do?" Heart asked.
- - -
Crystal finally managed to break her bonds, and managed to get out of the room, but not before she noticed that a bigger horde of Pokemies were coming her way. Crystal continued to fight and fight, before she came close to being horded.

I guess this is it... she thought. When suddenly, a black figure emerged and blew back all the Pokemies from her. The figure picked up Crystal, and ran off to hide. Crystal, barely conscious, noticed Blackfire come down with Tika, and noticing that Crystal was gone.

"Arceus, are you kidding me?" Blackfire shouted. he turned to Ren and Poltergeist. "The Travelers don't know about the Eevee yet! FIND HER!"

Finally, Crystal had completely passed out.

Eventually, Vern decided to approach Edgar and Bently. "Um... hello? Edgar? Bently? Do you remember your old pal Vern?" Edgar took a few seconds to look at Vern, trying to focus his eyes, and eventually held his arms out and then wrapped them around Vern before squeezing him as hard as he could. "Hey! How's my ol' pal Vern doin'?" He asked, giving Vern one of his best Ursaring hugs. Vern was uncomfortable with this.

"Help... Can't... breathe..."

OoC: I'm confused on how to go on pankakesparx. I just don't see how your last post has something to do with my last post. Could you explain please?

Pete led the way out of fourteen. Calia had left her remaining money in her bag, so the four had decided what they would need most for their travels and left as soon as possible. "Cameron," Pete asked, "what's the quickest way to Everest?" Cameron pulled out his map and replied, "If we walk, it will take almost another 24 hours on the road before we get there. They may very well be gone by then, if they're not already." Pete frowned and examined the map. "What about these old mine entrances over here?" He asked. Cameron shook his head. "That would be quicker, since there are minecart rails all along them, but those tunnels have become inhabited by pokemies, and there was a 'cave in' not too long ago, although I suspect it may have been a concerned bystander trying to keep the pokemies from getting out. Possibly a donphan or a rhydon, since most of those boulders are pretty big, and all of the miners and cave pokemon have been turned into pokemies, killed, or they found a way out and didn't go back." Pete stared at Cameron for a moment. "How do you know so much about this place?" He asked. Cameron smiled. "Before I went to work at the secret market, and before I met Emily and her family, I worked in fourteen. I'm very familiar with the locals and the surrounding area."
Emily walked up to the two and stated simply, "There's flying pokemon giving rides to those who need to go somewhere. We could ask one of them. They're just over there." She pointed to a station right outside of town. Cameron and Pete looked at each other, shrugged, and then went over to the station.
They walked up to the entrance, where a Spearow was handing out flight tickets. "Welcome to the fourteen airport, we have one flight left, how may I help you?" Emily looked at the Spearow suspiciously. "How long has this airport been here?" She asked. "I'm pretty sure it wasn't here before." The Spearow shook her head. "It wasn't. It was built during the past few months because people were coming into and leaving fourteen quite a bit, and it was an easy way to make money and get people where they were going. Now, are you going to buy tickets? It's $40 for Pokemon under level 12, $55 for Pokemon between level 13 & 69, and $45 for Pokemon level 70 or higher." Pete didn't say anything else, just gave the Spearow the money and dragged the others over to their flight. "Have a nice day!" The Spearow called. When the three got to their flight, they saw that it was a Flygon. "Greetings." The Flygon said. "Where shall I take you today?" "Take us to Everest." Pete said. " Alrighty then." The Flygon chirped. "Climb aboard and we'll be on our way." The three did so, and the Flygon took to the sky, leaving fourteen behind.

OoC: I'm confused on how to go on pankakesparx. I just don't see how your last post has something to do with my last post. Could you explain please?

OOC: during the whole Pokemie incident, i was gone and didn't have my Pokemon react to anything. because of this, i'm only saying they were with the other Pokemon before the outbreak, but got seperated from them for a bit because of the outbreak.

OoC: Makes sense. I think I can continue now.

Conner searched the wreckage of the building, which he didn't know that Crystal used to be there. When he couldn't find a trace of the Eevee, he gone back to Migx and Vern, then said, "Soul, Heart, and Tika were separated from us, and there is no sign of Crystal in the wreckage. There isn't much of the city left to explore, so there is only one other spot she could be. The tall building in the center of the city. I'll go there.". With that, Conner ran off to discover his friend.

"Hmmm, I should probably help Connor," Migx said before trailing off. "See you later, Vern." Migx left Vern to his friends, who were STILL squeezing the life out of him. "Wait! Help... Need... Air!" Vern called out. Fortunately, Bently was there to help. "Edgar, you really shouldn't try to suffocate your friends every time you see them," he said. Edgar quickly let go of Vern, dropping him to the ground. "Sorry Bently, I got carried away."

Migx caught up with Connor and started to ask about the situation. "So... should we be expecting the bandits to be there?" he asked.

"I think so, but something might not have happened quite to plan, especially with that flood of Pokemies. They might be elsewhere, around the city, trying to make up for it. But I think heading up to the tower is our best bet. So, let's hurry!", Conner replied to Migx. He then dashed off toward the tower he speculated about.

"Hey! Wait for me!" Migx said as he chased after Conner.

Soul's thoughts completely flooded him. "What can we do? first we lose Crystal, then the others, now Tika. Let's face it. They've won."

Heart stared at Soul in complete shock. "So that's it? you're giving up?"

"You heard me. There's nothing we can do. We can't split up because that would be suicide, and it would be even worse if we did find the others. and we're talking about the Pokemon that caused the apocalypse."

"No!" shouted Heart. "That's not the Soul I know! Soul, you would give ANYTHING to save your friends. Pokemon like you are proof we're still Pokemon, and have not become something we're not. Now we are going to figure out a plan. the Outlaws don't know about Conner and the others yet, so if we find them the right kind of way, we can use it to our advantage. Now let's go!"

Soul stood up firm. "You're right Heart! Let's do this!"
- - -
When Crystal shot wide awake, she saw someone she didn't expect. it was Platinum the Zoroark from Labyrinth.

"Platinum? what are you doing here?"

Platinum turned. "Oh good, You're awake. Well, you know Mars, Tika's brother? We are really close friends, and we made the connection you were traveling with her. Mars told me that Your friends were heading out to save you. Combined with my previous leads of the New Angeles attack, i decided to investigate. that's when i found you. but we need to be careful, the Outlaws are looking for you. They also got Tika and are telling Soul and Heart to choose from saving you or Tika, otherwise they'll blow this place sky-high with explosives."

As Crystal processed all of the info, she noticed Pokemon she'd thought she would never see. Crystal quickly ran up to Conner, Historius, and Migx. "Hey guys!" she said excitedly as she went up to them.

From the distance, actually away from the tower as he expected, Conner heard Crystal. With a leap of joy, he ran over towards her. When he stopped, he said with glee, "I am so glad to see you here Crystal. I guess you saw the old bird's tail feathers, hmm? Either way, we should probably...". Then Conner noticed the Zoroark next to her. "Question Crystal: Who is this friend of yours?", Conner asked.

Migx ran up to them as well. "Yeah, Crystal. I'd like to know too," he said. Eventually, Vern and his friends came to. "Hey! Why you go and leave me behind?" Vern asked. Edgar and Bentley were right behind him as well.

As the three soared through the sky on the Flygon's back, Emily asked, "What will we do when we find our friends?" Pete looked at her in confusion. "We'll tell them what happened," he said. "maybe they'll help us, or give us insight on how to get Calia back from the bandits. Why?" Emily shook her head. "You must not have thought this through," she said. "consider this; we left them in the middle of the night and took some of their cure. Even if it was because we were distributing it and helping others, they wouldn't know that from the letter we left, as all we wrote was 'goodbye.' Secondly, they might be busy with their own problems. Just because we tell them our problem, we can't just expect them to drop everything and come help us, saying, 'Oh sure we'll help you. Let's go. Right now.' And lastly, they might not trust us. They might just think we're leading them into a trap or something. Most people don't mess with bandits." Pete pondered this for a moment. He hadn't considered that. "And besides," Emily added, "Calia's smart. She might make it out on her own." Just then, the Flygon said, "We're here." and began gliding towards the ground. As he landed, the three got off. "Thank you," Pete said. "we really appreciate this." The Flygon nodded and said, "Come fly with us anytime." and took off for Fourteen again. "Well," Cameron said, "we're down to our last few bits of money, we're miles away from Calia, and we only have enough supplies to last us a week, but we've taken quite a few hours less than had we had to walk. Let's hope our friends really aren't too far away." Pete nodded. "Agreed." He said. "Let's hurry." As they walked away from Everest, Pete whispered under his breath, "Don't worry, Calia. Even if the others won't help us, we're going to save you. I promise."

Meanwhile, Calia was lying unconscious in a cell. When her eyes finally fluttered open, she looked around as best she could. "Where am I?" She murmured. "Why am I not dead?" She painfully pushed herself into a sitting position, and as she did, she heard rustling in the cell adjacent to hers. "Who's there?" She asked nervously. Out of the shadows of the cell came a Sableye, looking beaten and exhausted. "I'm Sapphire," she said. "And in answer to your earlier questions, you're in the bandits' dungeon at their main camp, and chances are, by the time they're done with you, you're going to wish you were dead."

"This is my friend Platinum," Crystal answered. "He was very close friends with Soul and Heart's guardians. He's a great SEP trooper."

Platinum sighed. "I'm sure Crystal knows you well, so I'll explain." Platinum then went on to explain everything that happened; Mars leading him, Tika's kidnapping, and the place rigged with explosives.

"So now you understand. You have to get out of here with Crystal as quickly and quietly as you can, before the Outlaws know you're here. They aren't aware that Soul and Heart brought others. I can't stay here long either. I'm headed to find Soul and Heart and explain that Crystal's safe, then i'm going back to get backup troops and explain what we're dealing with." he kneeled next to Crystal. "Crystal, be safe. i promise Soul and Heart will find Tika and get out just fine."

Crystal hugged Platinum. "Thanks for everything. We really owe you one."

"Don't mention it." Platinum then used his Illusion to transform into a Zoroark Pokemie and ran off.

Conner looked down to the ground, then looked at Crystal and said, "We should do what he said. I am a fast Pokémon. I could carry you on my back. Would be all right with that. We could make it out of this place fast.". Then Historius popped out, then said, "And if Pokemies show up, we can handle them.". He then went back into the pack. Conner chuckled, then asked, "Wouldn't you agree that would be the fastest way?".

Calia shook her head. "I don't plan on sticking around," she said. "my friends need me." Sapphire looked around to make sure no one was listening, then whispered, "You don't get it, do you? I heard the guards talking, and they said you had something in a bag that you clearly didn't want them to see. Now they're going to torture you until they find out what it was." Calia looked at her, puzzled. "Then why not just go back and capture my friends too?" she asked. "Then they would have the bag and three more captives instead of going to all the trouble of torturing me. My friends were in fourteen, so they could have taken them from there." Sapphire shook her head and said, "I heard that three targets were flown out of fourteen today on a Flygon, heading northeast. They were probably headed to Everest or Hillside, but I don't know for sure."
"Perfect," Calia thought. "Pete told the others, and they're headed to Everest." Sapphire looked at Calia questioningly. "What?" She asked. Calia smiled. "They're going to Everest." She said. "They're going to find our friends."

Cameron was checking the ground for tracks as the three walked along a beaten path. "They can't have been here in the last day or so," he said. "or their tracks would still be fresh." Pete frowned slightly. "You can track them though, right?" He asked. "Of course," Cameron said. "It shouldn't be too hard..."
"Shh!" Emily hissed. "Something's coming." Pete nodded and whispered, "Quick, hide!" As Pete and Emily hid in some nearby bushes, and Cameron sped up a tree, a pokemie, a Galuvantula, it seemed, walked by quickly without so much as a sideways glance. Cameron jumped down from the tree and Pete and Emily wriggled out from beneath the bushes. "What was a pokemie doing out here in the open in broad daylight?" She asked. "There must be a pokemie nest not too far from here." Cameron explained. "Or at least within a hour or so journey." Pete's eyes widened. "That's where they are," he said. Cameron dismissed this with a wave of his hand. "That's crazy," he said. "why would they go there?"
"To rescue one of their friends." Pete said. "And something tells me that if we're headed that way, nothing good will come of it."

"Right, is anyone else good at carrying?" Migx asked. Edgar, of coarse raised his hand. But Vern felt Migx was being rude again. "You have no idea what you're doing is frowned upon, do you?"

OOC: I made a new RP called Wolf Moon, guys, in case you're interested.

The group followed the pokemie as quietly as they could until they came to a large pokemie nest. "We're dead," Emily whispered. "So very, very dead." Pete looked at her and whispered, "If we're going to find our friends, we have to try. Now come on." The three followed the Galuvantula into the dark, foreboding pokemie nest.

History: (for both of them) Lunette was the oldest in his exceptionally large family, in fact he had four other siblings, not counting his youngest sister he had along with him.
Together their family had lived in a secluded area for generations to come, that was...until the BR-97 struck. Before they knew it, their house overrun by these strange pokemon not acting themselves.
He saw them coming to late, and eventually had to run away with what was left with his family, that being his younger sister. She was quick, and witty, and used that to escape the strange pokemon struck by the virus. Together they travel alone, looking for safe havens they could stay, and making sure not to stay in one place for to long, for they feel that it would be to much trouble for the pokemon that had been there before them.

The two siblings know little to almost nothing about the pokemie, other then to stay away from them and that they mean danger.

OOC: I hope none of you mind me joining in this. Looks pretty interesting and I never rped Pokemon before.
Also I was wondering, would it be best for me to go back and read everything that has happened so far, or possibly someone can explain what's going on? Or should I just write a starter and see how things move along there?
Oh, and if you don't mind me asking, is it day or night? Sorry for all the questions.

ooc: Yeah Crystal, you might want to read up on what's happening, that way when you manage to get to the rest of us, you could understand what is going on. pankakesparx hasn't been on very often, and he's the gm. When he is back on, he can tell you if you can participate in the rp and whether or not it is Day or Night.

OOC: i'm sorry guys, with me being busy and starting a sonic rp i haven't had much chance to post. if this keeps up i may consider hiring another GM.

@Crystal: accepted. as for the overall story, I would suggest either reading up on the whole story, or ask me what is going on right now. it's up to you. also, it is currently midday, nearing nightfall.(man, i can't believe it's only a few days into the RP)

"Sounds like a plan," Crystal said. "I'm still kind of injured." she climbed on Conner's back.

OOC: Alright, thanks~ I think I'll go back and read what's going on for now. Thanks again.

OoC: If you were to choose, pankakesparx, who would be the other GM? Just a question.

Conner then told Crystal, "You might want to hold on tight.". He then ran off towards the exit of the city, with a dust trail in his wake.

Historius was thinking of a plan involving that dynamite. If it blown, wouldn't kill the outlaws too?

OOC: I hope this is alright for a introduction. If anything is incorrect about anything, please inform me, I kind of just skimmed over the last 13 pages. ''

It had been a good five hours since both Lunette and his younger sibling had reached the safe haven of Everest. It was lucky for them, they would only have known of this place if they haven’t passed by some friendly travelers like themselves. By the time they arrived though, Lunette couldn’t shake the feeling that something happened here, but because of his over active nerves of being watched all the time, he put it off as nothing. On the other hand, his younger sister was overjoyed when they reached the area.
During their stay they saw very few, if not any Pokémon enter the safe haven. It worried him further, but yet, he just couldn’t pass on this worrying to his younger sibling. He just couldn’t. She was exhausted already from the journey over.

In the time of their stay they both opted that they take the time to rest, but before they would find as much material they could use on their travel. What was their goal you say? Absolutely nothing, they didn’t have one, never thought of one. If it was considered a goal, it was to survive, and try to live their life as it was. As it was in their own family ways.
By the time Lunnete awoke, he could tell by the position of the sun in the sky it was about midday. They both had agreed to sleep outside near the huts, rather than inside. As similar as they could be, they both could not stand resting in an enclosed space.

The male umbreon yawned as he glanced at his side, curled up alongside of him, still fast asleep was his sister, Dew. She looked so peaceful, not anxious, or always looking as if something was going to attack from the shadows. This was how it should be, how it was before they attacked. A few moments passed as Lunette let his mind put his thoughts together before deciding it would be best to get going now. They didn’t like to stay in one place for too long, after all, they weren’t searching for one place to stay at all. Shifting his weight, he nudged the younger awake as slow as possible as to not startle her, as she was often startled very easy when waking nowadays.
Once sure that she was more aware of her surroundings, he speaks first, “up and at’em, time to go.” There is a groan from Dew at his announcement, and when she doesn’t get up quick enough for his liking, Lune stands from his sitting position, having Dew lose the warmth she had curled against him.
With a huff, the young Eevee stands herself along with a stretch. Again, that anxious look was back…..
Lunette sighs at the expression she gives off, but continues to speak while gathering up the materials in a small backpack he found and then placing it around his side. Dew did the same with her small blue bag, throwing It around her neck, and then patting it a few times to make sure the stone inside was still present. It was.
They were ready for departure.

OOC: @zookinator- i'm not sure yet. probably one of the live RPers that have been here the longest and know the whole story the best. like i said, i'm not hiring yet, but if me being inactive becomes a bigger problem i will be hiring.

Soul and Heart started thinking out a plan when they saw a Zoroark Pokemie running towards them. Right before their eyes, it changed into their friend Platinum.

"Platinum!" Soul exclaimed. "Boy, am i glad to see you. What are you doing here?"

"Listen i don't have much time." Platinum explained the whole story to Soul and Heart.

Heart thought. "So if Crystal's gone, that means we go after Tika. Chances are if the Outlaws know Crystal is gone, they'll try everything to stop us from getting to Tika."

"Correct," said Platinum. "Now, I have to go. If the Outlaws discover any other Pokemon this whole place will go ka-boom. If I can manage, I'll help you out in saving Tika, but for now, this is goodbye."

"Platinum, thanks for everything. all of us owe you big time for doing this." Soul said.

"Heh, that's what Crystal said. she does remind me of you two." with that said, Platinum morphed back into a Pokemie and ran off.

OoC: Oh, okay pankakesparx.

Conner made it to the entrance, no matter how tired he was. He ran outside, out of sight from the Outlaws. Conner was fresh out of breath. He took Crystal off of his back. "Well... we made it.... didn't we?", Conner asked, panting from the exercise. Historius was still thinking inside the pack. If the Outlaws blew the place up, that would be suicide, wouldn't it?

OoC: I have made a new RP, Pokemon: A World Without Legends, and I would like to have some more RPers please.

"Yeah, I guess we did." said Crystal. "Thanks for the ride."

OOC: Anyone think I should use Erynil soon?

Pete hated this. REALLY hated it. All of these pokemies in the same place made his skin crawl. But he supposed he had no choice. He had to find his friends and let them know what had happened. "They have to be in here somewhere," Cameron said quietly. "otherwise we've come all this way for nothing."
