A little adventure. (Yami/Mod)

<Dude, did you seriously just get hit by that attack?>

The Chimchar couldn't answer. The flame chimp started to walk around in circles as if he were lost. When he did attempt to do something, he only ended up damaging himself. The wild Zorua began to laugh at the fire type. Though they were friends, it was a funny site for him to behold. The Noibat would have laughed as well, but she was also hit by the attack of the opposing dragon type. Luckily for her, it was a normal type move. The Zorua was speedy enough to avoid the incoming attack.

Being the only two able to do anything at the moment, the dragon and the dark type began their counteroffensive. The Zorua seemed to vanish and reappear behind the ghost type. Without any hesitation, it tried to hit the pokemon with it's Pursuit attack.

<Let's see if you can handle that.>

Again the Zorua laughed. Though he hated being woken from his beauty rest, he did enjoy a good battle. He hoped that the trainers and their partner pokemon would at least put on a decent show. Noibat was similar in her pursuits of the day. She began to hover in the air before delivering a high pitched screech. It was her attempt to soften up the opposing party. Afterwards, she focused her attention on the dragon type that hit her earlier. She ascended, flapping her wings at an accelerated rate. When she was sure she had enough speed, she dived bombed with her wings outstretched in an attempt to clothesline the Bagon.

Well, somebody didn’t understand how teamwork, you know, worked. Dawn let out a slight growl of frustration. ”Well, I know who wasn’t on the relay team…” the mixed girl muttered. Catching sight of the masterball, she frowned. She knew he took stuff seriously, but… this was supposed to be bonding time. Oh, whatever, if Yami wanted to not make friends and have the adventure of a trainer here, that was fine by her. She still had December to tag team with.

Mormo grew excited when he saw his confuse ray landed--er, well, one of them did. His joy was short lived. The pursuit attack sent him wobbling in the air. The screech that followed caused him to wish he had hands to put over his ears. Dawn felt pity for her pokemon, covering up her own ears. Still, she did spot December and Sandy trying to help her and Mormo out.

”Thanks,” she managed once the screeching stopped. Seeing that Sandy was engaging the chimchar, Dawn wondered if they should all try to get one down at a time. Since they weren’t going to fight over the trio, it would help everyone out and speed things along. Furthermore, if one pokemon fainted on their side, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage. ”Mormo, use astonish on the chimchar and see if you can confuse the zorua!” She probably should have helped Yami… but he wanted to this himself, it seemed.

The ghost type obeyed, firing off another confuse ray at the zorua in hopes of really rendering it inept for a moment. He then dived after the chimchar. Between the swift and the astonish, maybe he really would flinch and keep providing openings!

<Does she really think Confuse Ray is going to hit? She's joking, right?>

The Zorua laughed again. As he did, he received a face full of sand from the Sandshrew. He began to try to wipe away at his eyes, but the swift came before he could recover. It was possible that the confuse ray had just been a distraction. The Astonish also successfully hit the already confused Chimchar. However, the most devastating attack among the trio belonged to the Bagon. Having boosted its attack for the second time, the Bagon hit the opposing Noibat with an awesome Rage infused attack.

Though confused, the flame primate was able to fire off an ember attack at the ghost type.

<Well, look who finally showed up.>

Once again the Zorua laughed before following suit. Once more, the Zorua looked as if disappeared among the dancing shadows of the cave. When he reappeared, he was behind the Sandshrew. The shadow kit tried to ram the ground type with full force. At the same time, the Noibat again let out another blood-curling shriek as a response to being hit. She then climbed high into the air to repeat her dive bomb like tactic. As she descended towards the dragon type once more, she stretched out her wings hoping to clip the him.

She was gonna hit him if he kept on answering her in such a dead pan manner. Was he being sarcastic? Serious?! It was really hard to tell. All the same, when he called her Dawn-chan, that set something off in her. Pride swelled within her. No. She was not something to be referred to as chan by anyone except maybe her mother. (Though, December could call her that if she wanted. December could do a lot of things Dawn would pinch other people for, probably.) ”... you will refer to me as Hikari no Kimi if you must go all Nippon-style on me.” Yeah… poor Yami hadn’t quite figured out what got Dawn going. It was being revered as a princess that got her all excited. Being treated as both something to be protected and worshipped was her thing. ”And, thanks.”

Darn it, the confuse ray missed! But, at least the astonish hit. Aaand… pumpkaboo was hit by the ember. Fantastic. To top it all off, the noibat let out a screech. Hm… Dawn was really wondering what their biggest threat was right now. No, no, stick to the plan. Take down the chimchar, then the zorua, and if the noibat was still standing, they’d help Yami blast her out of the cave’s limited sky-space, too.

”You alright, December?” Dawn pressed as she eyed the battle. Mormo was covering from the ember when Dawn realized he looked to be wilting a bit. Crap. He’s burned. And here she was, without a single burn heal. Still, in the chaos of the battle, she couldn’t really afford to return him. Not yet, anyway.

Seeing that December sent her sandshrew after the zorua, Dawn gave up on her own tactic. The noitbat looked pretty weak at the moment. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to just take it down, and get some levels for all the pokemon and then work on the rest? God, she didn’t even know. Geez, I really suck as a trainer… she bitterly thought to herself. First she lost to Walter, then she couldn’t even manage the stupid training machine--what the actual h*ll was wrong with her?

... maybe they’re right when they say that coordinators are inferior to trainers, she mused, her perfectionist side getting her down. If she couldn’t do it right, she felt like an absolute loser.

”Mormo, scary face on the zorua!” she ordered. That guy was entirely too fast. They’d have to slow him down, big time, if they wanted to get any ground on these creatures. ”Then use astonish on the chimchar, again.” Her strategy was loose at best. She just knew she wasn’t helping out as much as she should have been and she felt a bit guilty for it. I’m so far behind everyone else… And, from what she could tell, she’d been here longer than Yami and December.

Mormo obeyed, flying towards the zorua on his way over to the chimchar. He was not a very scary ghost, but he didn’t have to be. The move did most of the work for him, warping his features into nightmarish qualities. Then, he let out a yell before slamming into the chimchar, hoping his astonish attack caused the fire type to flinch.

The Noibat had taken her last hit. She fell to the ground in exhaustion as her comrades were left to fend for themselves. Luckily, with the last attack from Pumpkaboo, the Chimchar had finally snapped free of his confusion. The Zorua was no longer laughing, and instead began to snarl like an animal backed into a corner. Both Chimchar and Zorua had been hit heavily, much like Noibat this round.



After snarling, the Zorua began to cry. Hopefully, he would receive an audience. As the battle continued, Chimchar attempted to hit the Sandshrew with an ember attack. The entire dynamic had shifted with the fall of the dragon type.

Good Arceus, that bagon had a set of lungs on it! But, it did the job. Dawn threw Yami a grin. ”Hey, you did it!”

With that, her attention returned to her own tag-team battle with December. Dawn gratefully took the burn heal. ”Thanks, Dec.” On that note, she waved her arms. Mormo quickly came over, slamming into Dawn’s chest, shaking from the shock of being burned. ”Hey, sssh, baby, c’mon, I’ve got ya’.” She wet him down to the very last drop of the bottle. She kissed where his fur-foliage had been wilted, encouraging him. ”Wanna keep going?”

<Mm-hm.>

Looking up at the zorua, Dawn grinned. ”... not bad.” The zorua definitely had a lot of potential as an actor. If Dawn wasn’t so manipulative and prone to throwing out a few tears to get her way herself, she might have fallen for it. As it was, only Mormo was at all effected.

<Is he gonna be okay?> the sweetheart ghost asked.

Dawn nodded. ”Yeah. Hit him with an astonish and a confuse ray, though.” With as high an accuracy as confuse ray had, it was very unlikely to miss for a third time. Further more, she hoped to back the zorua into a corner--a real corner, against the wall. Her ghost type could phase in and out of the solid walls of the cave, she knew. But, the same could not be said of the dark type.

The pumpkaboo nodded before going to work, rushing at the zorua as he released another set of dazzling, multi-colored lights. He let out a yell meant to shock the zorua as he charged at the fox. <BOO!> Shame he wasn’t a very scary ghost.

The Zorua was overwhelmed by the power of the incoming attacks. He simply did not have the speed to dodge the combined effort of the ghost and dragon. Still, he picked himself up. For a few moments the shadow fox laughed before finally falling in complete exhaustion. Like the Noibat before him, he now lay fallen.



And all of a sudden the Chimchar found himself alone. His two friends had fallen to the trainers and their pokemon. He could turn and run, but he would show no such cowardice. Still, he was beginning to feel pain from his current ordeal. However, he would not go down without a fight. He would try to take on of them down. Once more, the Chimchar found himself using the only attack that held any real clout. The fire type spat fire out of his mouth and in the direction of the ghost type.



ooc: Yami, I will go back and add the other 15 points I forgot to give you. Your Bagon is also level 20.
