Pokenations (RP)

OOC: Kitty, you gonna post? I guess not.

IC: Arriving at the Mirror Pool, Altie saw Tias waiting outside a very nice traditional house. Gesturing the others to follow, Altie went ahead, with Sade.

Ooc: Sorry... eue


Ic:

Crimson followed quietly. There was not much to say in the mind of this Ninetales.

Following shortly behind the others, was Nuric, who still carried Rini. His face twisted as he lifted his friend's body, she was heavy, and carrying her all the way to the Mirror Pool drained his energy. Nuric's mood slowly melted into impatience. The leader looked away from Rini, and up at Tias. He didn't say anything, and continued after Crimson.

Sade watched wide eyed around the Mirror Pool. This place was amasing! Looking down from the sky, Sade's crimson eyes rested on Tias. She smiled and yipped with happiness. Tias was here!

OOC: Gosh, I must be going crazy, but just go search up "New Mewtwo Form" on Google. It's the news about Gen. 6. That thang is too cuddly in my opinion; Gen. 6 is giving a better first impression than Gen. 5

IC: Tias smiled, knowing how happy Sade was to see her. She was wondering why, but eh... She won't argue with the five year old.

A figure came out, and Tias said, "Maybe you already know her Nuric, but this is Kuroi, the leader of the Mirror Pool. Eh, she's kinda human kinda not. You can say she's a ghost. I'm assuming that Altie told you to watch what you say to her?"

Kuroi was an elegant woman with long silky black hair, a bow, a whip that seems to have a gun at the end, a sword by her, and a very nice outfit, Her yellow-amber eyes gave away none of her emotions. She went over to Rini and said, "So this is what you needed me to do Tias? Heal her?"

Altie nodded, without letting Tias answer, she said, "With all due respect m'lady, but how exactly would you heal her?"

Kuroi only answered with a gesture for them to go outside.

Tias sighed, before saying, "OK, we have to leave. Kuroi will send her ghost-half to me when she's done, but she has her reasons for not wanting us her. Her healing techniques are secret, therefore, we can't see it." Knowing that Nuric will most likely argue, she added quickly, "Even you Nuric. I don't care what you say, you'll listen to me or else."

Ooc: is Kuroi's ghost-half Arileon? I plan on her making an entrance soon.

Will edit for further reasons unable to explain~

Sade looked around the room, then spotted the lady Tias was introducing the group to. Kuroi at first didn't look too scary, then as she met the lady's eyes. Sade flinched away. The eyes, so hollow. Vague even. She avoided the her eyes, and as they started to walk out, the Vulpix suck a glance at Rini. Where they really going to be able to save her? Or was she already gone?

Nuric nodded at Tias and faced Kuroi. He said nothing. His mouth shut. But Nuric's eyes stared into Kuroi's. He wasn't afraid of her, he was putting his trust in her. His blue eyes seemed to look into her soul. Yellow eyes met blue eyes. Nuric seemed to say with his expression;;

'You don't have the fullest extent of the amount of trust I am placing in your hands. Make one wrong move, and I'll make sure you don't see the next sunrise. I am not afraid of you, and I know you are not afraid of me either.'

The leader looked down to the limp body of his best friend. His eyes portrayed more;;

'This is my best friend. The person who got me through my childhood, the one I lost, found, and lost again. I need you to heal her, and in the same way, find her.

Nuric spun on his heels and faced the door. He was the last one to leave. What happens now? The boy took a few steps out, then glanced back. Nuric sighed and faced the group again, slowly following.

OOC: Nope. If you remember, Arileon is the main enemy of this quest. ^^

IC: Kuroi didn't care if Nuric didn't trust her. She's who she is, he's who he is. He has every right not to trust her. She wasn't a big fan of him being a leader, but she can't argue with that. Kuroi knew his father and his grandfather and his great grandfather well enough. It was tradition in Blazing Hills for the eldest child to become leader, so... There's how that happened. OK, she'll shut up about thinking about him now, she has a patient to focus on.

Looking at Rini, she sighed. The last time this happened was awhile. When she first defeated Ari was quite awhile back, being called the "Mysterious Black the Brave." Now, what was she? Half-ghost, half-human. Pretty much a phantom. Kuroi sighed again before changing into her ghost form, where she had short white hair instead of the long black hair. A black headband was on her and it looked like there was a black rose on it. She now wore a dress of green and white. A spirit-like creature floated above her, which was her ghost half.

Turning back to her shelf of medicine, she looked at a book full of antidotes and healing techniques. Soon finding the one she needed, Kuroi's hand turned just how Rini's had when she had healed Tias. Finishing up, she signaled the ghost to go find the others while she disappeared to a river to go get some watermelons she had been cooling since this morning.

~~~~

Rini woke up to see the spirit creature leave. Blinking a bit, her vision was a bit blurred before she saw she was somewhere she didn't know. Sitting up, she felt a pain in her chest, and Rini saw she was bleeding. It probably happened before, but eh... Who cares. Slowly getting up, she collapsed weakly before successfully getting to Kuroi's library. She picked up a book called Mysterious Black the Brave - A Legendary Hero. "Hmm... This seems interesting," she whispered before opening the book, getting sucked in from the amazing stories.

Having to wait, Nuric found himself in the library. He sat on the floor, a large map spread before him. The leader stared it it with disinterest, and a far away look. How long would it take? Geez. Slowly rolling the map back up, he slapped a rubber-band around the tube so it wouldn't unroll. With a absent sigh, he placed it in the container with the rest of the maps. Nuric rubbed his eyes, which were sore from staring at the map without blinking. As he stood there, Nuric heard a flip of a page.

Wait, wasn't I the only one here? His brows knitted together in confusion. Rounding the bookshelf, he froze dead in is tracks. His mind switched from a virility of different emotions. Confusion, shock, relief, and giddiness. His features brightened and he dashed forward. "Rini!" Nuirc cheered. He ran in and hugged her, his tail streaming out behind him as he ran. "You are alright!" Tears of happiness seemed to brim his eyes, though he wasn't crying yet.

Crimson peered out, watching Nuric. She forced herself to stay where she was when she saw Rini, and her eyes brimmed with joy. It was her! The girl who she helped take care of, one of her closest friends... She had a huge smile on her face, something that wasn't often seen.

Rini peered up at Nuric, a little, unsure who it was, until she closed the book. Overjoyed, she flung her arms over Nuric, hugging him back. Looking behind him, she saw Crimson. While she did notice that Nuric was about to cry, Rini told him, "Wait one moment please." Walking over to Crimson, she reflected Crimson's smile before she also hugged her. Looking around, she saw Kuroi's phantom, before grabbing Crimson's hand and pulling her over to Nuric. Eyeing the two, she crossed her arms, and said, "Don't you two have something to say to each other?" Secretly, she thought they were honestly not going to apologize and start fighting again. Well, at least she had her teleporter... Again. This time to Gale Springs. Though, Rini will probably only use it during extreme cases. She's her old self again - the one before she ran away.

Kuroi's phantom saw that the three were together and it flew to Tias and the others, who were apparently doing something at the pool. No, not that kind of pool. A pool, as in the one you don't swim in. It's forbidden to swim in there because the Manaphy and Phione flock there, since they're legendary and one of the main figures of the Mirror Pool... Well, you probably shouldn't get in there. It beckoned Tias and the others back to Kuroi's place, where it expected them to wait for her... Which will be awhile just because Kuroi is busy with her watermelons.

By the waterfall, Kuroi was looking for her watermelons, sighing, "Where did they go? I knew they were around here somewhere..." She seemed a bit doubtful before she saw a figure with her watermelon in hand. "T-that's my watermelon! Jeez, I thought I lost it. I should probably stop doubting myself." she thought out loud. The figure soon started running off, quickly.

OOC: The figure is Ari Kitty. Sorry for playing your character, but Kuroi's current watermelon... Is special. XD

ooc: It's fine. Ari is fast, and she can turn invisible, just so you know ;)

ic:

Crimson looked at Rini. She accepted the hug. "Say sorry to him? Well... I have lost you to many times, Rini. I'll do this because I don't want to loose you." She whispered to her. "Nuric; I'm sorry for how I was. I was just a little surprised.. and jealous." It was the only thing she'd say. She did this for Rini, for she had just been to dear to her.

~~~
Meanwhile

The figure mockingly let out a laugh. "Catch me if you can!" The figure taunted. Going visible, the figure was a mysterious pokemon, one whom was rarely seen. Colored brightly with purples, yellows, greens, and blues, it looked like a Leafeon, but much more magestic, as if this pokemon was legendary. There was only one; so it may as well be. This pokemon, whom had a name; was the species of Arileon. Going at a bursting speed, it would be hard to keep up to her. Keeping the watermelon tightly gripped in her mouth, Ari ran faster. It wasn't a trouble. Before anyone knew, the brightly colored pokemon raced through where it seemed almost everyone was, startling everyone for sure. Carrying the watermelon with Phsychic, She taunted, "Can't catch me, lazy fool!" As she headed for the enterance.


~~~

Crimson was startled. "Who, or what was that?!?" she said, leaping back. "I never seen anything in all my years..."

ooc:

Can it be that Rini knows who Ari is?

ooc: Wait for me. >:u

Ic:
Nuric took a deep breath. He had thought about what he would say when this day came. He always wanted to explain that their personality wouldn't get along if there wasn't a common ground. And as a kid, that is what he thought. There was no common ground between Crimson and Nuric, so why should they get along? It was stupid to the childish part of Nuric. But as people grow, they mature. They seem to learn more, and think about the past, and find something that they wish they could have said, and perhaps have made it different. Their common ground was Rini. Only if he had come up with that sooner instead of years later. Only two words had come up during those years.

"I'm sorry."

It was one of those whole hearted, words that begged for forgiveness. He actually meant it. There was no words that could describe it more. nothing more that could add to his meaningful words. As if suddenly ruining the moment something came flying past, and Nuric spun, his blue eyes trying to lock onto what came flying past.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sade leaned over the pool, her crimson eyes dancing across the water. It seemed to reflect everything. Daring not to touch it she rested her head at the edge, and stared intently. With a quick glance, she leaped back up onto Alite and gave her friend a cheery smile. Everything was going to be alright!

Kuroi ran, grabbing out her swords. Hitting them on the ground, she let out a large blast of air. Letting out a whistle, her Victini used Flame Charge, following the blast quickly after the figure. "S-stop! Those are mine!" Kuroi said, running along the branches of the trees to stay hidden from the figure. No way... Is that who I think it is? My old enemy! No! I thought I had her locked up in the depths of the Mirror Pool!

Panting, she stopped to catch her breath by a tree, not noticing where Ari had gone. Soon, she ran into her house's library, and Kuroi let out another air blast, destroying one half of her library, on the side the others weren't on.

~~~

"Good, now then... Do you happen to have any candy on you Nuric? I haven't had a lollipop in forever," Rini asked cheerfully. Opening up the book she was reading again, she was on a page where "Black" was covered in a cloak, taking out the villain - Arileon, or, in other words, "Blue."

Sighing, she was enjoying the story until she saw a blast that destroyed half the library. "H-hey! Is that supposed to happen?!" she asked, full of fright, before she looked back at the book with the picture. Examining the picture of blue, her eyes were even wider in fear, and she grabbed Nuric and Crimson's hands, shouting, "Let's go! I don't want her to see me!"

~~~

Tias saw Kuroi's phantom gesturing in strange ways and she said, "Altie, we have to go! Something's not right back there!" Turning into her Pokemon form, she quickly flew off.

Altie sighed, "How does she expect me to fly as fast as her? She's like her brother, Luro. Jeez, I wonder how much she misses him since he's been gone studying in Castanet." Transforming into her Pokemon form, she had Sade on her back, and said, "Hold tight!" and she flew off after Tias.

OOC: Dang, I never knew playing Ari would be so much fun!

IC: Ari looked back, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "I'm sorry, but finders keepers!" She taunted, before running into what she remembered as her library. She stopped for a moment, as she was far enough. "Yion!" she shouted as she used Razor Leaf. That will hold them back. She had dodged the moves they both threw at her easily. The speed of an Arileon could never be matched. "Get out of my way!" She shouted, once again running where the others were.

She had attacked Crimson on the way. She saw the book the Sylveon was holding. "Nice taste in books. To bad you won't get to see any more of me!" She spat at Rini before tearing the page out that had her on it using Psychic. Throwing it on the ground, she raced out of there, before going invisible, leaving only a small fraction of the watermelon. Taking the rest with her, she fled into the trees, her invisible powers taking over. She thought I'd never escape. To bad she was wrong. She could easily hide.

~~~

Crimson was furious when she got bumped by the Arileon. "Aagh!" she fell backwards, but she saved herself and quickly got back up. Guess being very active helps... she noted to herself. "We better get out of here; I don't like that pokemon." Her protective side came over, as she hugged Rini close to her, kneeling down. "Don't worry, I'll never let anything happen to you from that pokemon." She told her. "Nuric, we have to find a way to hide her..."

Nuric felt his body yanked forward by Rini, he stood bewildered and utterly confused. "What exactly happened?" He asked, he wasn't fast enough to register what had gone down. But by the look in the other's eyes, he knew something was up. He raised an eyebrow, and expected a straight forward answer. What is with that watermelon too? Did the world just do a loopy-loop?

ooc- Sorry, not having much of a muse day. ;;
