Silas smirked. This battle could actually end up being a piece of cake if he played his cards right. He had plenty of experience in dealing with Gastly's due to that doctor who rolled him out of the ToA. He knew exactly what to do. Silas reached to his belt and threw out two additional Pokeballs. "Go! Rattata! Ekans!" Two bright flashes of light revealed his intimidating serpent and his feisty rodent. They both snapped to attention at the sight of the eerie ghouls floating above them. Silas shook his head at the boy's impudence. "You're nothing but a thug, picking on a Butterfree in critical condition. I'm going to wipe the floor with you! Rattata! Use three Zen Headbutt attacks on the Gastly! Ekans! Use three Dark Pulses on the Duskull! Frosslass and Doduo, make your way over to the Butterfree and protect her from any incoming attacks. If you can, try to move her over to us!" Silas had no intention of using any restraint in this battle. He had to get the Butterfree back as soon as possible, so he had lashed out with everything he could. These unusual moves opened many doors to make fighting many different types that much easier. He only hoped he still had a chance to save the Butterfree. |

The man smiled when you said your commands, Dark Pulse and Zen Headbutt would both hurt, but his pokemon could pull through, or so he thought. Luckily for Rattata he was immune to ghost type attacks, and so his opponents couldn’t really hurt him that much. As for Ekans, well I guess he would be ok, he didn’t have a type advantage, or disadvantage. However he had one thing, and that was Dark Pulse.. But ya, enough of the chit chat, let’s get this battle on the road.. You quickly gave your pokemon their commands, and well they quickly began following through with them. Rattata began focusing the psychic energy needed for Zen Headbutt, while Ekans began focusing on the darkness needed for Dark Pulse. This gave your opponent just enough time to shout out his orders as well. ”Gastly.. start off with Hypnosis. Put that Ekans to sleep, then use Mean Look on that Rattata!” he said, all scary like. ”Now Duskull.. use Night Shade on Ekans, and then follow that up with a Disable on Rattata! Take its moves away!” The battle quickly was underway. Ekans was able to gather enough darkness to unleash it in black circle. The attack quickly blasted away from the snake, and collided straight into Duskull, doing good damage. Next to attack was Gastly; the pokemon quickly began emitting glowing yellow rings from its eyes, putting ekans into a deep slumber. Before Rattata could make his move, Gastly quickly turned to him and gave him a look that would give an old person, unless they were a medium, a heart attack. Rattata was next, and he quickly charged towards Gastly and gave him a good psychic style Headbutt. The attack was super effective, and did some awesome damage. Before Rattata was able to go for another, Duskull quickly disabled the move, making it unusable for a few turns. The reaper like pokemon then blasted a Night Shade attack, which quickly hit Ekans. All this time that the battle had been going, Frosslass and Doduo tried to find away over to Butterfree, however they were unsuccessful. The battle was in the way of getting to the bug pokemon, it seemed the only way to get to her, was to defeat the crazed man in battle. So if I were you I would make this battle as quick as possible..

Silas was a little concerned. Ghost types were nefarious for status effects and other tricks that would make a fair fight against them seem almost impossible. It would even appear that with his most powerful move disabled and one of his most powerful Pokemon rendered useless with sleep that the insane man was in the lead. However, Silas had no intention of fighting fair. When he was a kid, he would do anything to survive without hesitation. Now that he was older and more established in society, he did his best to follow the regulations and laws of this world. However, trainers typically didn't break into the most charitable organization known in the world, hurt nurses, and kidnap half-dead Pokemon and almost kill them in the process. Since this was obviously not a sanctioned battle and this man clearly had the intent to murder the poor Butterfree, Silas knew he had to use everything at his disposal to wrap up the man and get Butterfree to safety. "You are a monster. If you didn't notice by the fact she was in the ICU, or by the fact I followed you here by the trail of her blood, that Butterfree is on death's door. People like you are absolute slime, and must be dealt with. You won't even let me take her to safety? Then, you have brought this upon yourself. Rattata! When one road is closed, another one opens! Use your Bite attack on the Duskull three times! If it faints before that, switch your target to the Gastly! Ekans, try to wake up and use your Dark Pulse three times on the Duskull as a primary target, and the Gastly as a secondary if it faints!" Silas turned back to Doduo and Frosslass, who were standing on edge, like dogs straining to be let off the leash. He nodded to them. "You two have done well to get us here. I may need your help again. If Rattata is put to sleep too, and ONLY if he's knocked into dreamland, then you two will have to pounce in with two Drill Pecks from you, Doduo, and two Bite attacks from you, Frosslass. We'll give this guy a chance to surrender, but if it looks like this battle will take too long, we'll have no choice but to have you two intervene with Butterfree's best interests at heart." The best part about his team was that all of them worked together furiously and as one unit. He knew there was no obstacle too tough to overcome. However, although he was scared for Butterfree's life, he couldn't help but feel an odd sense of excitement. He had recieved the same feeling from having Pinsir trash that Venonat early on in his adventure here in Alternia. Perhaps there was something to bringing outlaws to justice. He was sure with his own rap sheet he'd never make a good cop, but maybe he could be a bounty hunter, or something along those lines. He'd very much enjoy that. He would have to look into it later. For now, he had a battle to fight, and was clearly ready to activate his backup plan if necessary. He also had an ace in the hole, knowing that there was still one Pokeball at his side that had an extra ghoulish warrior he could use if necessary. He was going to take this criminal down. |

Nogou Village The man laughed as you called him a monster, he truly was an evil being. ”You know the scales on Butterfree wings are toxic when let loose. A lot of thieves buy vials of those scales, and let me tell you they sell for a good price. A lot of people also buy vials of poison powder, sleep powder, and stun spore, now do you see why I do what I do. You get a pokemon with those moves; you harvest them in containers, and sell them. I had no intention on killing the worthless pokemon, as you can see I actually treated its wounds. All I want to do is make my money, and I’m not going to little a brat like you get in my way!” the thug harshly said. If you got a closer look at the Butterfree, you would infact see that it wasn’t moving because it was dead, she was merely asleep and out of pain for the time being. It appeared that the man had treated Butterfrees wounds, but it surely wasn’t the medical attention that she needed. Even though she had slightly been taken care of, you still had to rescue Butterfree. “Harvesting” her would most likely be extremely painful, and somewhat like torture, and you couldn’t let that happen.. or could you? Anyway on to the battle portion! You quickly gave Rattata his commands, hunt down the Duskull and use bite on it three times. It was a fairly good idea, but remember that Duskull also had Disable he could retaliate with.. After you gave your commands to the little mouse, you turned you attention to your sleeping serpent. You tried your best at waking your pokemon from his slumber, but alas it was a fail. Ekans was sleeping peacefully, and to be honest he was having dreams about it numerous Rattatas, a common food for them in the wild. After seeing that the snake would not be waking up this turn, Rattata charged into the battle. He ran as quickly as he could towards the Duskull, and when he was close enough, the mouse jumped up and latched onto the ghost. The bite had done some critical damage, and left Duskull screaming in pain, but it didn’t stop there. Rattata quickly chomped down again on the ghost, causing it even more pain and making it faint. Gastly watched as his teammate went down, and well, didn’t really do anything. The trainer told him to use Hypnosis, but Gastly was frozen in terror. He didn’t want to faint and lose, because if he did, he knew that there would be consequences to pay later on. So instead of attacking, the ghost just floated still, and this gave Rattata all the time he needed. The mouse quickly charged the ball of gas, jumped up and bit him as well. Wow, it seemed as though Rattata was quite the little warrior in this battle! Well, Rattata’s last bite wasn’t enough to knock out his last opponent, but he was barely hanging on. Next round and this battle will be yours! You! Foe!

So it appeared the man wasn't crazy, but just black-hearted. This seemed to sicken the ex-thief even more than the other situation had. He clenched his fist and glared at the unfeeling person in front of him. "So you're not insane after all.... you're just an abomination. How dare you keep that thing alive so you can just torture and destroy its natural beauty. How dare you give it one hope of survival and take it away for monetary gain! You are a greedy and heartless subcreature not even deserving the title 'human.' I will make sure that you are brought to justice and make sure you never walk this earth a free man again!" Silas took a deep breath and collected himself. It was unlike him to lose his cool like that, but just seeing the Butterfree in such peril set something off in him. The Butterfree was lost in a dark and lonely world, much like he had been when he was younger. Turning back to the battle, he saw how efficiently his Rattata had managed to wipe out the status dealing Duskull and left the Gastly quivering. It wasn't often you saw a ghost afraid of the living. He brushed a stray hair out of his face and allowed his orders to escape his lips. "Rattata, you've done well. Shut this jackass and his Gastly up with another Bite attack! If that doesn't seal the deal, hit it with a second one. Ekans! Try and hear me! Wake up from your slumber and aim two Dark Pulses at the Gastly!" Silas turned to his two other Pokemon. "Frosslass, cover the door. This man isn't going anywhere. Make sure he doesn't leave this room. Doduo, if for some reason Rattata is put to sleep and Ekans fails to wake up, finish the Gastly off with two Drill Pecks. However, let Rattata try and finish it on his own first. Otherwise, stay right here by my side to make sure he doesn't do anything tricky." The battle was almost over, and Silas' cold stare bore holes into his opponents. This would be his first step down the path of justice, and he would do anything to make sure that Butterfree made it into a safe home away from this creep. Edited by Silas, Dec 1 2010, 05:44 PM.

Nogou Village So this battle was almost over, and your little mini plot from me is almost finished! Well, let’s make this quick and sweet. You quickly gave your commands to Rattata; Ekans was still asleep on the floor. Damn, when was he going to wake up? After you gave your battling pokemon his commands, you turned to Frosslass and Doduo. You ordered the ice ghost to guard the door, and you told Doduo to be prepared to fight in Rattatas place if need be, luckily that wouldn’t have to happen. Gastly was still a bit scared, which was odd, allowing Rattata to perform an almighty bite attack! The dark type move was all that was needed; Gastly fell silently to the ground, and was quickly withdrawn by his trainer. The man also withdrew Duskull, and then he spoke. ”Your very powerful…” he began, ”I could use a trainer of your talents.. You should consider joining my team.. We can make all your troubles disappear with a snap of a finger..” he said once again. Well, it seemed like you had yet another decision on your hands. Would you become an ally with the man, or would you capture him and make sure that he was locked away? I think I already know your answer, but it doesn’t hurt to ask. But ya, this battle was over, and I believe I hear police sirens… Congratulations! Ekans gained 11.1 exp! Ekans leveled to 10 with 5.3 exp left over! Also, Rattata gained 10 exp! Rattata is still at level 11 with 10.5 exp! Profile already updated! Edited by Vlad, Dec 5 2010, 03:44 AM.

Silas had to admit that he considered the offer. It was of no malice towards Pokemon or anything, but merely because he was cool and calculating, always weighing available options. However, after the way the man intended to treat Butterfree, this man would only make his troubles worse, not better. He then remembered that he wasn't even a wanted man anywhere, so what troubles did he even have? Silas knew what he had to do, and had no trouble doing it. "I don't know what team you represent, but if it involves the torture of Pokemon, then you can count me out. The only thing I'm going to help you with is finding you a nice, comfy jail cell for the kidnapping of a Butterfree, destruction of a Pokemon Center, and the assault on Nurse Joy of Nogou. Of course, I can imagine that a man of your caliber has a far more extensive list of crimes that you're wanted for. However, that's not my job. My job is catching freaks like you, not punishing." Knowing the man would most likely make an effort to escape, he kept all his Pokemon out and gave them orders. "Froslass, I can hear sirens. Go lead the Police up here quickly. Doduo, keep watch over that Butterfree. If he makes any move towards him, fend him off with some Peck attacks. Rattata, if he makes even the slighest move, tackle him at the knees." Ekans, however, was still asleep, so Silas recalled him into his Pokeball. It was annoying that his snake was slumbering the whole battle, but Rattata more than handled it and got them both . He looked back to the man and folded his arms across his chest."If I were you, I wouldn't move a muscle. Believe me when I say that my Pokemon's attacks hurt, and this time it won't be your little ghouls who take the hit." Silas kept his mental gears whirring and stayed on edge. He wouldn't relax until he got the Butterfree back to the Pokemon Center and figured out a safe place for it to live out of danger. Looking at his little Rattata, he remembered the trainer who traded him that. Perhaps he'd contact him and see if he'd be willing to take care of the Butterfree. He decided that if he got her back to the Pokecenter, he'd offer her a new home with a new trainer by offering her a Pokeball, which he would then trade to the other trainer. He hoped that the Butterfree would accept his offer. Edited by Silas, Dec 5 2010, 12:35 PM.

The man looked at you for a minute, and then he began to laugh. Softly at first, and then it became louder.. a lot louder.. He was now laughing like an escaped lunatic from the nut house, and I’ll admit, it was kind of creepy… ”You think, you can scare me? he would ask, ”Boy, you better think twice about that!” The man began to rush towards you, and then Rattata began to charge at the man. However, in about a second, the man became engulfed in a black smoke. Rattata quickly used a tackle, but flew right through the smoke, and crash-landed on the other side. How did he do you that, the question was in everyone’s mind, but one thing was for certain, and that was that you were now standing alone in the room. Soon Frosslass floated through the doorway, a dozen police officers quickly followed. ”WHAT HAPPENED HERE!” a police officer shouted, if I were you I’d tell them everything as quick as possible, and then get Butterfree back to the Pokemon Center. It looks like the poor pokemon was still in critical condition, so you better hurry. ooc: Sorry this ref sucked.... |

Silas stood amazed that he was now the only human in the room. A beeping at his wrist brought him to reality, and he saw he was offered a tremendous deal for learning new moves for Rattata. He thanked his Rattata and recalled him to his Pokeball, sending it to the tutor via Poketech. Of course, he'd have to pay the tutor with his King's Rock later, but the potential moves he was learning would more than make up for it. Although Silas would have loved to have sat and pondered how a human had mastered the arts of invisibility or how an Abra had taught the creep how to teleport, Silas had been put in a far more awkward situation. Now instead of putting the man behind bars, he was looking like the guilty one with all of his Pokemon out and a Butterfree in a critical condition. He had time to wonder why fate was so cruel to him before he spat out the first words on his head. "It's alright, officers. Stand down. I'm on your side. I'm the trainer that was sent here to rescue the Butterfree by Nurse Joy. Me and my team here were close to apprehending the suspect before he managed to disappear in a cloud of smoke. How he did this is beyond me, since there are apparently no other exits to the room, but now that the door is open he may have snuck out, invisible to our eyes. He was a tall, thin man with a disturbed laugh and a crazy sound to his voice. He carried with him a Gastly and a Duskull. Either way, this Butterfree needs to be taken back to the Pokemon Center immediately for emergency care." Silas knew it was a gamble laying it all out. It all depended on whether or not Nurse Joy had actually told the police about him. If she did, then the whole thing would smoothe out and he could get back to the Center and rest and recover. If not, the police simply took him now and he saw the inside of a jail cell for the rest of his life. Silas sighed, hating that most of his life has been lived on the edge of the knife, teetering like a Spinda. He was not going to prison, however, and would defend himself if necessary. He really had planned on becomming a bounty hunter and a servant of the people, as opposed to a pariah of Alternia and an outlaw. Sometimes your life wasn't up to you though. Silas knew that better than anyone. He'd simply have to wait and see how it played out, now having the spare moment to wonder how the hell that creepy jerk had managed to disappear.

At first the police officer just stared at you, he was kind of intimidating I’m not going to lie, but he didn’t scare you at all. ”So you’re the trainer who was sent to retrieve the Butterfree, huh. Well it looks like you got the job done, the man you battled is wanted for various crimes. If you could have apprehended him, you could have gotten a pricey reward, but like you said he somehow has a way of vanishing. We have yet to figure out how, but that’s not important right now, let’s get that Butterfree back to Nurse Joy at the center.” With that said, the officer ran over to the Butterfree, picked her up, and began back downstairs. [if you follow him, which I’m most certain you will] It was only a matter of minutes, before the two of you were back at the center. Butterfree let out a weak cry, and Nurse Joy immediately took her back into the backroom. The healing process took about two hours, but before you knew it, Nurse Joy was back up front. ”Butterfree has been healed. I didn’t think she would make it through the process, but she did. She’s a very strong pokemon, and she needs a good home.” she said, looking at you. ”So I would like to know, if you would be able to take her, I saw the worry in your eyes when you brought her in, I could tell that you really care about her, and well, I don’t think there’s another trainer better then you to take her.” Well there you have it, mini plot thing is 99% complete. All that was left to do was tell Nurse Joy if you would take care of Butterfree or not. So well, the choice was yours, and I have a feeling, it’s going to be yes. |

Silas nodded and returned all of his Pokemon to their Pokeballs. "It was a bizarre cloud of smoke. If he truly is such an escape artist, perhaps he could be taken out by stun gun or something in the next entanglement. However, you're right. Butterfree needs immediate attention, so we better head back." Silas was extremely relieved to find that he had not been arrested. Nurse Joy had indeed told the police of his presence, which saved him a huge hassle. They left the creepy house behind and walked back to the Pokemon Center. He sat down in the waiting room and debriefed with an officer, going over all the details he remembered of the thief and the battle to help them out in any way he could. After Nurse Joy came back and made her offer, Silas could do nothing but accept. Butterfree needed someone to look out for her, and Silas was sure he could get her a good home. "Of course, Nurse Joy, but only if she agrees." He followed Nurse Joy back to the Butterfree's room, who was flapping about and looking no worse for the wear physically. Silas suspected that there was sufficient mental trauma to heal, and he'd do all he could to help her. He offered up a Pokeball. "Butterfree, I'd like to look after you, if that's alright with you. Will you join me?" His Poketech beeped again, and he looked down and saw someone had offered to pay him to hunt down a Kricketot for them. It would be a relatively easy task, so he sent a hasty affirmation. Regardless of whether Butterfree joined him or not, he'd immediately go out into the surrounding area and begin hunting for a Kricketot. Silas once again threw himself into Fate's hands to see how it would turn out. |

Butterfree watched as you pulled out the pokeball, the winged-bug just looked at the mechanism at first. Soon you began to speak, which caused the bug to look at you. She understood everything you were saying, and she knew that you had been fighting to save her for quite some time now. First you saved her from the Beedrill, then you brought her back to the center to get healed, then she was stolen, and you found her and saved her once more from the creepy man. If anyone was worthy to call her theirs it was most definitely you. She looked at you one last time and gave you a sweet smile, you could tell what would soon happen. Butterfree flapped her wings, sending her towards the ball. The pokemon then tapped against it, causing herself to be consumed by a red energy, and then sucked into the ball. The ball rocked one time, and then it dinged, letting everyone know that the capture was complete. Well, it looked like Butterfree really trusted you, because she went down without a fight. Congratulations, you caught a Butterfree! Nurse Joy smiled at the remarkable sight, ”I want to thank you for all the help you’ve done. As a token of my appreciation I want you to have these!” she said, before turning towards her Chansey. The pink egg-carrying pokemon happily handed Nurse Joy five Oran berries, who gratefully turned back to you, and placed them in your hand. ”I know it’s not much, but at least it’s something” she said, ending her sentence with a very happy smile. Well, there you have it. The mini plot is over, and you have earned yourself not only a Level 12 Butterfree, but five Oran berries as well! So now what would you do? Didn’t I read something about a Kricketot? I think I did… Congratulations! You caught a Level 12 Butterfree, and you have received five Oran berries from Nurse Joy! Your Profile has been updated!

Silas was happy that the Butterfree had decided to join him. He patted the Pokeball and placed it on his belt. He would care for her until he could find someone who would treat her in the loving way she deserved. Silas did not expect to get anything else in addition to the insect Pokemon, but the Oran Berries surely would be able to prove useful in upcoming battles. He smiled back at Nurse Joy and nodded his head in thanks. "Oran Berries are a valuable commodity for any trainer. Your gift is most appreciated, and thank you for caring for Butterfree, me, and all of my Pokemon. I'm probably going to be leaving Nogou soon, but if I ever return I will surely stop in and say hello." Silas left the Pokemon Center and thought about the previous adventure. He had sent a Pokemon away for tutoring, and gained another. He had also recieved a job offer from a trainer who he had done business with for a Magikarp. He looked down at his snake symbol and pondered over the Alliance of which he was a part. It was his duty to help trainers and Pokemon, and if he could make a profit while doing so, then all the better. Rubbing his chin, the ex-thief decided that he should probably begin by finding this Kricketot. With all the woodlands surrounding the village, it shouldn't be that hard of a task. Silas eagerly strolled to the edge of the village hunting for a Kricketot to fullfill his bargain. |

Laughing at clouds, so dark up above

Nogou Village Outskirts to Forest of Legends The journey out of Nogou's centre was an uneventful one, as you might expect from such a peaceful village. Nobody really gave you much more interest than a friendly wave or pleasant smile, save one girl who grinned warmly. Maybe she was thinking dirty thoughts about you. Early afternoon trickled into dinner by the time you reached the outskirts proper, and accordingly the number of people around thinned considerably, to the point that there wasn't actually anyone in sight by the time you were at the trees. Still not quite dusk, finding Kricketot was going to be slightly more difficult than you might first imagine. After all, nature followed specific rules, and one such ideal was that Kricketot would like to only come out as night came to pass, such that they could chirp annoyingly in the background. So you could probably find something else to do to pass the time, just wait it out, or ragequit on the idea alto- hey look at that! A small, redbrown-hued Pokemon's shell could just be made out beside a bush, picking at the leaves on it whilst he looked from left to right to make sure nobody was interested in him. Oblivious to you, the Pokemon went on with his business, and from this distance, he certainly looked like a Kricketot... Were you to approach him, however, you would find that, in actual fact, the Pokemon wasn't a Kricketot at all; this insect could fly. Level 12

The town appeared to be very quiet as Silas walked through it. Waving back to the girl who had smiled and reacted warmly to him, he turned his attention to the outskirts of the forest. There would be no better place than to find a Kricketot than here, even if the timing wasn't quite right in the day. Silas figured that there might be one or two early risers. He heard a rustling in the bushes and thought he had come across the Kricketot that he saught! Running towards it, it turned out to be a Ledyba instead. Silas frowned, slightly disappointed, but figured that maybe this could turn out to be a blessing. If it was in fact too early for Kricketot to be prowling around, then maybe he could kill some time by battling this other insect type. It was also appeared to be decently strong, which meant it could fetch a good price by somebody looking for an Insect type. He reached to his belt and called out his trusty Ekans. He pressed the button and threw it out in front of him. "Go. Ekans!" The snake pokemon appeared in a flash of light, showing its menacing gaze and intimidating its opponent. "Ekanssssssss!" Silas knew that despite being an excellent poison type, he only knew one move that would allow him to inflict a status ailment. That didn't sit right with the ex-thief, for Ekans should be able to become an excellent sapper if given the right guidance. After quickly consulting with his Poketech, Silas figured out that his Ekans could learn the move Glare. That would be a wonderful move to know, and should be relatively easy for Ekans to learn. Silas quickly thought up a strategy and guided his Ekans. "OK, Ekans, the flavor of the day is going to be 'tutoring!' We're going to try and teach you a new move, called Glare. What the move will allow you to do is chill the hearts of your opponent and leave them paralyzed on the spot. Think about how you can weaken an opponent's resolve with your Intimidate ability. Know how menacing you can look and encorporate that power with the debihiltating gaze you give when you use your Leer attack! Give it a go on the Ledyba! Afterwards, hit it with a Dark Pulse!" Silas couldn't afford to use three attempts of Glare in one go, considering it was still a battle that he did not want to lose. He had managed to tutor moves before, so he figured that all it would take was some fine tweaking of the strategy he had come up with and match it to Ekans' performance. Surely teaching a new move would allow for the sun to go down and let the Kricketots come out. Silas kept his eyes and ears open just in case one popped up. |
