For my own Enjoyment [Mod/open!]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Walking echoed on the ground, as it sounded around the castle. This place was torn, and worn down, falling apart like all the old buildings around here. Its walls were burned, sometimes part of the wall would be missing, and you could see into the room next to you. It was also very dark, since it was almost midnight, and shadows seemed to come to life. Any movement, made it look like a person was standing in the next room, or like someone was peeping there head around a wall. It was all very scary, and nerve wreaking. So, who would come in this place at night?

Well, Benjamin would, he wasn't scared of another, in fact he was a creature of the night. The small male swayed on his feet, for a few seconds, wondering which hall to go down next. His bright blue eyes reflecting the thin strands of moonlight that came through the cracks, and into the castle. He was used to the dark, and moving around in it, that he hardly even used to wall to help him anymore. His footsteps echoed through the place, but they were followed by lighter steps as well. Next to him, in the darkness was his Absol, Nightmare.

It was a shiny Absol though, as its fur was red, and his eyes bright blue like Wicked's. It was his strongest pokemon, not scared to attack anything, and would do anything that Wicked wanted him to do.

[Ezio]

Along the halls, two young pokemon clearly in love are walking along with each other, oblivious to anything that may be going on around them. A small purple and small light blue poison type pokemon, 2 Nidoran walking along.

BENJAMIN WICKED

Finally, pulling out his lighter, to help him see, he looked around. Seeing how torn down this place was, and how there was almost nothing here. He did see Nightmare looked up, his gaze ahead of them, and he smirked. Looking at what his pokemon was looking at, he finally saw them. Two Nidorans walking around this place, and he smirked. It was fate, it had to be, he had been wanting to add those two pokemon to his team. Wanting to make them into a Nidoqueen, and Nidoking. Looking at Nightmare, he knew that his Absol was ready for combat.

"Sneak up on them, and use night slash." His voice was deep, as his bright blue eyes flash, and he saw his Absol vanish into the darkness. He stood next to a wall that had gaping holes in it, and old pictures that were fallen and torn. He could pick them up and look at them, but he didn't see the need to. Why would he want to know about the former rulers of this place. The rules that did nothing, they were the reason that his family grew up poor. Narrowing his eyes, he looked back at the outline of the two pokemon, and suddenly heard a what one would say a roar, as his absol attacked with its night slash.

[Ezio]

The two Nidoran, both looking nowhere but at each other, were in complete shook when the Absol struck, hitting the Female Nidoran directly. Struggling to get back up after the strike, the Female Nidoran took one look at the male with tears filling its eyes before finally losing its grasp and fainting.

As first shock ran through the Male Nidoran followed by anger, it turned around, spotting the Absol. Quickly moving over to its lover, the Nidoran growled as stood over the fainted Nidoran, clearly trying to protect her even though she fainted. Staring at the Absol, the male Nidoran used Leer.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Nightmare watched as its attack hit, and the female fell down. Its bright blue eyes glowed as it looked at the male Nidoran, and only smirked. He had nothing to really fear from a Nidoran, even if it was made. He saw the leer attack, but simple did nothing, as he waited for Benjamin to come closer. He heard the foot steps of his master as he walked towards them. He could see the faint out line of Benjamin, and soon turned all his attention back to the male Nidoran, and let lose a razor wind. His brow glowing the darkness, as he hoped to make quick work of the male as well.

[Ezio]

Upon seeing the brow glow on the Absol, the Nidoran braced itself for impact yet it got none. Confused by this the Nidoran looked around quickly before shaking its head and charging at the Absol, preparing itself to use Double Kick, completely ignoring the wind that was suddenly picking up. As it neared the Absol, the Nidoran jumped up to use Double Kick only to get knocked back by the attack.

Slowly getting back up, the Nidoran stared at the Absol, more determination in its eyes then ever before. Rushing back to its lovers side, the Nidoran used Toxic Spikes, laying them around itself and the other Nidoran.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Nightmare snorted when the male Nidoran tried to attack him, only to be blown back. He watched it run back to the female, laying spikes on the ground around himself and herself. His blue eyes glowed as he thought about his next move on the pokemon. Soon he let out a roar, letting out an ice beam, aiming it at the male. He could hear the soft chuckle of Benjamin in the background as he watched the pointless fight that the Nidoran was fighting. Nightmare knew how to fight, and how to get around most attacks. Though Nightmare did from time to time lose a fight, it just that Wicked didn't see him losing this fight.

[Da Smiffinator!]

_{You push from the inside, smothered.
You push from the inside out, smothered....}

"Excellent," Nyroc said to herself as she watched Benjamin, one of her mightiest Pure Ones, take on the two Nidoran without mercy. She had been going about her own business in the city, but had heard the racket coming from the castle grounds. Curiosity getting the best of her, the High Tyto wandered in, and watched Wicked take on the two pathetic poison types.

But she saw the young Pokemon's potential. That willpower would have to be shattered to some extent, yes, so that the Nidoran male and female would be no more than slaves, however, their will to fight for each other was admirable. Perhaps they would do well in a duel battle.

Of course, that was all dependent on if Benjamin decided they were worth his while to waste a Pokeball or two on.

[Ezio]

Upon knowing there was nothing else left to do, the Nidoran let off an angry growl as it glared over that the Absol fiercely. As the Ice Beam struck the poison type, it cried out in pain as it gradually froze, as result from the attack.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Benjamin watched Nightmare as its ice beam hit the male Nidoran head on. His own blue eyes glowing as his red furred Absol with its onw blue eyes came back to his side. Talking out two pokeballs he threw them at the two Nidoran's. They may not be strong now but when the leveled up, and in a double battle they would be useful. It wasn't untill after he had caught the two of them, that he noticed someone else was here with him. Though since Nightmare hadn't turned to attack them, that meant who it was. Turning around to see his leader, "Greetings Nyroc." He gave a smile, but more of a wicked smile, as Nightmare soon walked back into the darkness.

[Ezio]

The two Nidoran were caught without a struggle but yet there is a feeling that they aren't exactly going to be very trustful of others from now on.

Name: (name me!)
Species: Nidoran F
Gender: Female
Ability: Rivalry
Personality: Very loving and caring, this Nidoran is very kind to others, perhaps a little too kind for some or a certain male Nidoran. It is often too trusting of others however.

Name: (name me!)
Species: Nidoran M
Gender: Male
Ability: Rivalry
Personality: Very jealous and not all that trusting of others, this Nidoran will fight til the end for the thing or certain pokemon it loves. However as it is very jealous it is often ending up in fights. It will be hard earning this pokemon's trust.

Benjamin sighed as he picked up the two balls, and put the away, thinking about what he was going to do with the two pokemon. He looked ahead into the darkness, and gestured for his leader to follow him, as he started to walk into it, keeping his pace slow though. He had heard about larger pokemon living in the castle, and knew that most of them did come out in the middle of the night. Through the darkness, he could just barley make out his Absol as it walked, its red fur standing out more then it would have if its fur was white.

[Prince Pony Age]

To one side, half-in and half-out of a window, a Ledyba slept peacefully. Above them, some Starly did the same. All was very quiet in the dead of night, with most creatures dreaming their own dreams.

Outside, a Hoothoot broke the silence, evidently quite awake for the night.

Shortly after that, steps could be heard ahead. They sounded too heavy for something like a Ratatta, as well as clearly being a biped. They seemed to be getting closer.

[OOC: I hope I'm not stealing someone's mod topic or something. o3o It's just been a bit, so I figured I'd take it.]]

[Ryder]

(Nah, I think your fine Flora)

BENJAMIN WICKED

As Nightmare walked the Absol seemed like he was trying to find something, but Wicked didn't pay much attention to him. He was wondering just what kind of pokemon lived in this place, and took a quick glance around. He saw a few bird pokemon, but didn't think about them. He sighed to himself, as he saw the many small pokemon running around, and a few of them sleeping. Though there were many to pick from, Benjamin left them alone.

[Prince Pony Age]

The steps continued closer, until a Gallade rounded the corner and, to his surprise, saw intruders. He took a fighting stance, but did not attack. He didn't want to attack someone who may not have any ill-will towards the place, but he was ready to defend his home if necessary.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Benjamin saw Nightmare's head shot up as if the pokemon had heard something. Watching his shiny red pokemon he waited to see what would come. When he heard footsteps and saw a pokemon round a corner, his eyes widened at the sight. A Gallade, his icy blue eyes flashed as Nightmare tensed. Smirking, "Dear Gallade, how about a battle?" His eyes narrowed as he put a sly smile on his face. Watching as Nightmare stepped up, waiting for the Gallade's answer.

[Prince Pony Age]

So they DID want to fight. Well, he'd defend his home with everything he had.

Considering he was already in an obviously defensive stance, he answered the trainer's question by opening with an attack: that is, a Charge Beam, aimed directly for the red-skinned Absol.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

He smirked when he saw the Gallade attack Nightmare with a charge beam, that hit the shiny pokemon. The pokemon stood strong, as the attack finished. "Hit it with your night slash." Based on type Nightmare had the edge, but then just because you had the edge didn't mean you would win, but it did help. The red Absol was like a blurr as it raced towards the Gallade, its claws lighting up. In a flash it struck its attack and jumped back to see if it hit.

[Prince Pony Age]

As the dark-energy-laced claws tore at the Gallade's skin, he was thankful that he'd found the Dawn Stone so long ago that evolved him into what he was today--after gaining the ability to use martial-arts and the like, Dark energy didn't hurt nearly so much as it used to~

Still, it was better to be safe than sorry. He put a thin forcefield around himself, a Reflect, to slow down his opponent and make those physical attack hurt less, and a Will-o-wisp to eat at his foe's hit-points.

[Ryder]

BENJAMIN WICKED

Watching the Gallade as it fought, he thought about the best way to fight with this pokemon. Seeing the reflect, and then the weaker fire attack, it seemed to point that this pokemon thought about its moves first. Watching as Nightmare got out of the way in time and avoid the Will-o-wisp all together. "Use swords dance first." He saw the swords form around the Absol as they rose his attack strength, and gave him more spirit to fight. "Now lets try your taunt attack." He smirked many wouldn't think of this as a powerful move, but if it worked right the Gallade would be forced to use the same moves over and over for some time.
