The Situation in Glacier

The rescuers have been allowed a night's rest following their arrival on the outskirts of Glacier. Though there is ample evidence of their enemy's presence in the form of burning buildings and ruined settlements, the creature itself appears to have wandered off briefly to wreak havoc in a different corner of the frozen tundra. Or perhaps it was taking a brief siesta following so much exertion - murder and destruction was tiring work. Whatever the case, it seems to be an opportune time to descend into the city and assist those remaining there.

If they are brave, they might even try to take back the city itself. But the primary goal, of course, is to save as many people as possible before the great dragon returned.

The few people of Glacier who had guided them this far point out the less-traveled paths by which it may be possible to enter the city unnoticed. It is determined that they will fan out in groups, both in search of survivors and in search of the companions of the dragon who had so effectively laid waste to the city. Perhaps they might still gain the upper hand.

((You may respond to your threads now! Not all the groups will have immediate mod starters going up, so feel free to initiate threading; a mod will step in as soon as possible. As usual, we will be tagging on a 24-hour basis whether or not all group members have tagged in.

When responding, please list the Pokemon your character is bringing with them.

While the final portion of this event will go up on Sunday, October 4th, please also feel free to continue tagging this portion of the log as these threads will almost certainly not be finished yet.))

Raine has Sawsbuck

[The young woman from Sanctuary was keeping as close as she could to the middle of the group, her fully recovered Pokemon also keeping pace with the others, not wanting to be sent away. Being able to wander into the practically destroyed areas was just as shocking as the journey itself had been. To think that one of the gods had done all of that... stories out of history and legend, and here the evidence was freshly in front of them.

She held herself together, taking it all in and scanning the area for anything out of the ordinary. Anything moving that wasn't on fire. Before she could respond to Rei's observation, that sudden onslaught of blasts around them puts any thought of that right out-- she reacts instinctively, using reflect for defense.]


-- Is everyone all right?!

[You know, it's really rather lucky that Xatu can literally see the future, and that Rei has two telepaths to coordinate with. It makes the sudden ambush a little less shocking, and Raine's quick thinking saves them a lot of trouble.

With a hiss, Sarek and Deimos both throw up a Light Screen around the whole group...and Ravi stares intently, getting ready to attack with his Future Sight...

(ooc: That will go off on my next round because of how that move works?)]


Fine!
heartandsoul: ([Serious] Through the fire)

Maka has Golurk, Tepig, Meowstic, and Slowbro

[personal profile] heartandsoul 2015-10-02 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Baldwin, Maka's Golurk, instinctively folds himself around her in a protective fort, containing both her and the three other Pokemon with them. Maka, having no gift for seeing in the future and having no Pokemon that do those things, was caught off guard--dammit! They didn't even sense anybody around, who's attacking?]

Fine over here, too!

[Just the enemy needs to reveal themselves, Maka can't decide what to do until she actually sees who's responsible.]
bokukotantei: (ace in the hole)

Naoto has Kirlia, Fletchinder, Riolu, and Anorith

[personal profile] bokukotantei 2015-10-03 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[The Kirlia was the first of Naoto's team to react, intuitively teleporting both himself and the young detective out of the radius of the ambush before Naoto even realized that they were under attack. The slender young woman cursed under her breath when they landed just a few yards off, and immediately drew her gun in self defense.]

We're good here! [She called, then nodded briefly at the loyal Kirlia.] Nice save, Ichiro.
faithfulflame: (Rei Annoyed)

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2015-10-03 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Rei just rolls her eyes and raises a hand, fingers twirling in a tight circle.]

You attacked us. You made it our fight.

[And as calm as you please, she snaps off a Flamethrower at the obviously steely Pokemon. she has no interest in playing games with you, whatever you are.

And just as quickly, the Xatu's Future Sight from the previous round should connect with the woman. And he'll follow it up with an Air Slash aimed right for the other strange Pokemon. The...bug? Moth? Thing?]
wise_maiden: (don't get in my way)

[personal profile] wise_maiden 2015-10-04 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Thankfully it seems clear that their group has put together some variety of shields for protection, and Sawsbuck moves closer to her side. After it seems mostly confirmed that no one among them had been injured in that initial blast, it gives Raine an opportunity to take a better look at their emerging attackers, trying to quickly analyze the unfamiliar Pokemon and the woman as well --

... Though that's Rei responding immediately with an attack after the strange woman spoke her piece. Something that Raine internally made a face at -- was that really the way to go about this? Still. If fighting was to be imminent, it wouldn't leave them a lot of time.

With that in mind, she directs a brilliant flash of light towards the attacking Trio in an attempt to hinder further retaliation.]

allergictoloveletters: (Shine Aqua Illusion)

Ami has Cyndaquil, Luxray, Chansey, Dragonair, Noctowl

[personal profile] allergictoloveletters 2015-10-04 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Ami was checking on all her pokemon, her Noctowl, Minerva, flying over the group's heads and she let out a long screech. She gazed at the two pokemon in question and while she never wanted to harm a pokemon, they needed to end this and she would not have anyone injured while under her care. She frowned as she took in everything, analyzing the situation as well.

She used Bubblebeam to put out any of the remaining fire. She put a hand on Rei's shoulder. Knowing that her lover wouldn't stand for being attacked.
]

Rei... [She wanted them to hold back just a bit.]

Nightengale, heal any injured pokemon. [The Chansey nodded, running about to see if anyone needed her help.]

There is no need to attack us. [She insisted to the hooded figure, but everything made her uncomfortable about this person.]
faithfulflame: (Mars Fireblast)

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2015-10-04 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rei bites back a curse at the Fiery Dance, slipping sideways and manipulating the heat up and away from her with her Pyrokinetic abilities. Her lip twitched, a coldly furious expression at the enemy daring to attack Ami.

She's angry now, her evolution and aggressive instincts kicking in. It hasn't come out much lately, but there were times when these things happened. And they were bad...

The Bisharp can look forward to a Blaze Kick from Rei as she surges forward, shrouding her whole body in fire and ramming her knee into the thing's face.

Xatu, on the other hand diverts it's attention to a more suitable target, zipping up into the air and firing off another Air Slash at the Volcarona.]

wise_maiden: (time to gather up the splinters)

[personal profile] wise_maiden 2015-10-05 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[The trouble with being a fairy-typed Scholar who's never experienced battle before is... a complete lack of reflexes. For all that Raine could study the situation, she hadn't taken the idea that she was as good a target as any of them into account. The danger was real for her here.

As the woman's sword grazes Raine, she cries out in surprise, stumbling at the hit. The Sawsbuck is quick to react, lowering its head and charging at the woman with it's Megahorn attack in an attempt to stop her from doing any further damage to his bond partner.]

allergictoloveletters: (Locating weaknesses)

[personal profile] allergictoloveletters 2015-10-06 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[As a water and ice type, Ami had a natural advantage over the fire pokemon. But the steel type had definite advantage over her.]

ARCHIMEDES Inferno!! [Ami screamed out and the little cyndaquil was quick to send out the attack towards Bisharp, screeching as the other pokemon tried to attack Ami. Ami couldn't use ice against the Bisharp, but she did build a massive wall to try and protect herself from the blow as much as possible.]

You don't have to do this! But I will not let you hurt these people!

The Bisharp and Volcarona are both level 70! Volcarona is a fire/bug type. Direct all water, flying, and rock moves at it! The Bisharp is steel/dark type! Fire, bug, ground, steel, fairy, and fighting will work best. Do not use any poison moves!

The Enlightened is a Fire/Steel/Dark, hit her with water and fighting type moves as often as you can!

Minerva! Use Air Slash against the Volcarona! [The Noctowl circled once and dove down towards Volcarona.]

[personal profile] wise_maiden 2015-10-06 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
Watch out for the spell!

[The Sawsbuck takes the brunt of that flame attack, particularly painful due to it's typing,though it allows Raine a moment to get her bearings enough to aim a heal pulse toward him to try and mitigate the damage.

As for fighting moves... once it's had a chance to recover, the deer Pokemon turns and aims a double kick toward the Enlightened.]
faithfulflame: (Priestess Lets get to it!)

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2015-10-06 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
Got it!

[Rei nods sharply at Ami's instructions, and follows up the attack on the Bisharp with a Fire Blast, fully intending to take it out of the fight now.

And with a tap on her warp band, she swaps out the Xatu for a different Pokemon. Hellenes, the Gyarados, appears with a bellow, it's Intimidate passively lowering the enemies' attack. And with that done, it spits a Hydropump at the Enlightened!]

[personal profile] allergictoloveletters 2015-10-07 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
YIELD AND WE WILL STOP! [Ami insisted as she felt her heart go out towards the pokemon who were merely doing what their bonded told them.]

You are the one who has decided to use pokemon to attack people! We cannot abide by these actions!

[Ami held her hands high above her head, hoping to at least lessen the damage of the flames as she used Water Pulse against the flames.]

MINERVA! Stop the Volcarona! [The Noctowl circled again, hot on the tail of the Volcarona and prepared to use Sky Attack on both pokemon.]

[personal profile] heartandsoul 2015-10-07 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, please, you're the one that attacked us and now you're going on about giving up your life? That's totally ridiculous!

[She says that, but in actuality the pain of the Pokemon wrenches at her heart and soul--they clearly have a very deep affection towards each other even if they're harming regular people. Is this a test from the gods itself? What's driven this woman to even declare such things?

Never mind. Maka won't bring it up, she'll just direct her Slowbro to use Water Pulse to aid Ami's against the fire.]


Baldwin!

[The girl's sorry to say, but she's at a severe disadvantage against attacking the woman at all. The Golurk nods in understanding and gears up a Hammer Arm blow to slow the woman down.]
wise_maiden: (you won't get away with this)

[personal profile] wise_maiden 2015-10-07 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Talk about being caught up in a clash of ideals. Was it really that much different from the Gigans taking over Sanctuary?

Their defense-strengthening barriers still seemed to be stable for the moment, so what Raine decides to do is to chant up a quick safeguard against any of the flames that may potentially make it past the water attacks, at least to prevent then all from getting burned because of it.

This was maddening. This was... exhausting.]


So -- you're going to be a martyr so you don't have to live with your failure? What is even driving all of this?

[Rei blinks at the woman, completely confused by that statement. She had no intention of killing, as even in her moment of blind aggression she held onto her moral center. Unbothered by the flames, she stepped forward and glared at the woman, fingers flicking out in an almost bored gesture to capture any fire the woman was throwing with her pyrokinesis and fling it into Ami and Slowbro's water.]

We're not going to kill you. Don't be stupid, that's not our way.

[The Psychic types with her bunch up around Rei, and the Xatu focuses his too-wide eyes on the woman, using a Guard Swap to trade his frail defenses for her own. May as well take charge.]

Stand down and talk. You can call back your friends, too. We don't want to fight, so please don't push this farther than it has to go.
