Not Quite Right (Mod/Open)

[VEGETA]

The Ursaring shifted uncomfortably and stepped back a little bit before muttering something to the Umbreon who stepped forward and said <All the humans that come here only want one thing...to capture us.> he cringed a little bit before saying <Some of them will go through anything to capture us...there used to be alot more of us...but most of us were captured when we tried to reason with them...humans are relentless being.> he backed up a bit before becoming immediately silent.

The Spiritomb simply looked at Sheryl and continued to follow them without a word. He found them interesting...he wanted to go with them...even if he wasn't going to directly say it for fear of being attacked again for associating with humans..

Caerus grinned and wiggled under her touch. he was glad she was smiling again. Carefully he balanced on his back paws and licked her face. She was a good person. Dropping to all four he wagged his tail and moved over to the Ursaring and acted all happy. It was just the way he was.

Rikka finished the tear down of camp and put the wires and bells in her bag. "Alrighty I think I got everything. Not to tend to the pokemon." Pulling out a scarf she usually use she scooped up some of the snow nearby and walked to the Ursaring. Patting his shoulder gently she used her scarf like an ice pack and patted it along where the attacks had hit.

Moon blinked and tilted her head as she listened. <Oh. Well they aren't like Rikka. She loves pokemon and never takes them against her will. She only attacked back because she doesn't like being attacked with out reason.> Lifting her paw she patted the Umbreon on the head like Rikka might do then looked over at the Alakazam. "Would you like to come with us? Oh And how do you feel? Rikka can patch you up if you need.>

After a moment, she found herself consumed with giggling, and a rather light color came to her face from it all. ^_^ Ya! It'd be ok~! After a moment, all the slightly scary and stressful things had been pushed from Rosa's mind, and she found herself fully happy again. After a moment, her eyes shifted over towards the large bear pokemon, and for a few seconds, she was reminded of one of her large plushies back home. Home... she wanted to go home. That's right ._. "Are we going to head out again?" she asked rather quietly after that. Sheryl took the silence as it was and simply seemed to think on it. Annie, on the other hand, found that she had gotten dirty at some point in time and was brushing off her plush hair of sorts and fixing it all back into order. [/scrolly]

All four Pokemon just watched the two girls then before the Alakazam nodded. 'It sounds like a wonderful idea,' he agreed shortly. 'And I'm quite alright.' They were nice girls and this place was becoming boring for him. Perhaps an adventure with this human would change that. The Ursaring, however, still gave no real response. He simply watched the girls somewhat warily, staying next to the Umbreon.

The Spiritomb was getting rather stressed, though. HE wanted to come, too! Someone invite him, please~ Or maybe he'd just follow them and find someone else to join...? Either way, he really wanted to join a human! D:

Soon he raced back though once he noticed that no one had followed. Moon listened and nodded. Now She had to get Rikka to know that the Alakazam wanted to come. Blinking she realized the Alakazam was a psychic. <You will have to tell you want to come okay? That way I don't end up confusing her.> Rikka looked over to Rosa. "Yeah but it will be okay. I can probably get Caerus to carry the bag and you can ride on my back." That way the little girl could get some sleep and Rikka could find a safe place to settled them for the night. Rikka let the Ursaring be now and looked to the Umbreon. "How are you doing? Did you get hit?" She didn't want to leave them with bad memories of her. Though now she felt really bad about attacking them. Noticing the Spiritomb she looked to Rosa and crouched down to her level. "Hey Look at the spiritomb. He looks like he really wants to come with. How bout you invite him?" If Rosa didn't want to she would probably invite him. Though she had a feeling the girl would....maybe. [/scrolly]

Oh! o3o! He wanted to come? For whatever reason, this full realization didn't seem to hit her until Rikka had mentioned it. Fishing out a pokeball, she held it up towards the Spiritomb and seemed to wait for whatever was supposed to happen next. Sheryl chuckled a bit to herself at the sight of Rosa. She was truly a different type of soul than she was used to, that was for sure. Annie simply grinned happily as well. [/scrolly]

[Ball Rat]

The Alakazam nodded. Yes, of course he'd have to explain this. That did make sense... Turning to Rikka, he waited for her to finish talking before his monotone telepathy reached her again. 'I think I would like to join you, if you have no objections.' It was a simple statement and he simply waited for an answer as the other Pokemon reacted.

The Umbreon shook his head to indicate he was fine. Even if he had been hit, he didn't want to accept much help from the humans, anyway. The bear beside him fidgeted slightly at the situation. The two other Pokemon were simply crazy... why did they want to join these girls? The Spiritomb looked excited and quickly moved to press himself against the Pokeball so it would absorb him. It didn't even shake before clicking shut in capture.

Name:
Species: Spiritomb
Gender: Male
Ability: Pressure
Personality: This Spiritomb is very needy. He hates to be left alone and if he is, he immediately begins to stress out. This may or may not be because he was abandoned -- either by parents or a previous trainer -- but he refuses to talk about such things and instead does everything he can to be useful and helpful to his current trainer and anyone he or she tells him to listen to or help.

Chuckling she turned back to the Umbreon who shook his head. She really did want to check him over though. It wasn't like she would force him to join her or anything. Blinking she looked to the Alakazam. Smiling she nodded her head. "I have no objections whatsoever. I love new friends. Your sure you want to come though right?" Digging into her bag she pulled out an empty ball and held it out the to the Alakazam. She would not force him against his will. It was rude mean and just was not the right way to start off a friendship. [/scrolly]

She still couldn't get over how cool that was! Rosa found her mind swimming with ideas of being a pokemon trainer or something of that nature, but after a moment, she snapped out of it and shook her head a little looking towards the Ursaring and the Umbreon....and then the Alakazam. "Wait...you talk? Like.. talk talk!" she said extending a finger and pointing at the psychic with a rather great amount of awe on her face. That... WAS SO COOL! [/scrolly]

[Ball Rat]

The Alakazam first nodded to Rikka. He was quite sure this was the decision he wanted to make. He was sure that time would calm the hearts of these Pokemon and there would be no need for him to help the humans that came into this area. At Rosa's reaction, he blinked and looked over at her. After a moment of silence, his telepathy reached out to both the girls. 'Well, I don't talk as in speak as you do from your mouth but I can send my message directly to your brain, where it is translated slightly into something that is easier to understand for you. Mostly, I send exactly what needs to be said, but some things don't go through just right and if left the way it was sent, you may not understand it,' he tried to explain.

The mind was a complex thing... particularly the human mind. It was unlikely that the young girls would completely grasp the meaning of what he told them, but that didn't matter to him at the moment. Turning back to Rikka, he reached out to press the button on the Pokeball, letting it absorb him. After a moment and a single shake, it clicked shut.

Name:
Species: Alakazam
Gender: Male - Straight
Ability: Inner Focus
Personality: This creature is both calm and slightly boring. His telepathy is monotone and he talks very seriously about near everything. He doesn't take to jokes very well, but he doesn't get angry over them so much as finds the idea of joking a waste of time. If his trainer is in danger, he will do his utmost to protect her but is also willing to protect others and he dislikes the idea of fighting for anything more than defense. Recreational fighting is out of the question. However, if there is money or goods to be won and the team will starve otherwise... that might be a good enough reason for him to change his stance long enough.

The Umbreon quickly shook his head and turned to walk away. Thankfully, the bear Pokemon turned to follow. They were willing to accept these girls were not bad people, but that didn't mean their opinion of the whole human race was changed...

Once they had moved, it didn't take long for a Linoone to dash out of the bushes nearby and circled first Rikka's feet, sniffing at her curiously, and then did the same to Rosa. Then she dashed to stand a few yards away before sitting up on her back feet and peering curiously at both girls... maybe she wanted something? Nearby, a slight rustle could be heard up in a tree, too, but nothing could be seen from their angle.

It was nothing to her. She had Kiki and Cloud. Which could be interesting. Considering the Alakazam was the final evo of Abra. Oh well she would introduce them soon enough. When her poke ball rang in capture she smiled. Soon it disappeared to home. Noticing the Umbreon and Ursaring walking away she waved. "I hope you have better luck from now on!" She really did. It wasn't fair for pokemon to be treated unfairly. At the Linoone's appearance she looked down. "Well hello there. I'm Rikka." Watching her move from Rosa then to a spot she could Sit Rikka wondered what she needed. "Do you need something?" Rikka was happy to give her food or something. Moon sat then had the feeling of being watched. Looking about she looked to the tree and moved quickly jumping up into it to see what was there. [/scrolly]

Annie sighed to herself and resolved to start walking only to be cut off when a Linoone made a sudden appearance and began to move around the girls. Rosa's head moved as she watched the Linoone and then looked back at Rikka when the older girl spoke. Hu? Needed--? "What'cha need? I can get it!" she said directing her words at the wild pokemon. Sheryl sweat dropped a little and looked at Annie who simply looked back. "Let's follow!" was what suddenly came from Rosa, and with that, the girl was off moving in the direction of the Linoone. Rosa's ears had not caught the rustling, yet it didn't escape Sheryl who looked sharply at the bush around her for a moment before shaking her form and following again. [/scrolly]

[Ball Rat]

The Linoone watched as they moved closer and by the time they were a few feet away, she was up and dashing off a little ways again. Seemed like maybe they were right in her wanting them to follow. She didn't run off too far, always sitting after a moment and looking back to make sure they were following still. It didn't seem like wherever she wanted to take them was close, though.

Up in the tree with Moon, there were two Pokemon. An Abra (funny place for the Psychic-type to be) and a Natu. The little bird was giving his friend instructions. <Now just imagine where you want to go -- that branch, remember,> he told the Abra. The creature gulped and looked as though he was concentrating before vanishing and reappearing... not where he wanted to be. In fact, he smacked right into the trunk of the opposite tree and began to fall. Panicking, the Natu dashed down to snatch up his friend's hand and flap as hard as he could, just barely being able to soften the fall. Apparently the Abra was an odd one... couldn't Teleport accurately, something his species was known for.

So she did want them to follow. Leaving Caerus to guard her bag she followed after the Linoone. "Alrighty Lead the way." Moon watched with apparent fascination. Rikka had an Abra named Cloud so when she saw the messed up teleportation she was a bit surprised. <Are you alright?> Moon jumped to the ground and approached them carefully. <Maybe he should start on the ground.> [/scrolly]

Sheryl continued to float and follow but did stop and look back a few times before shaking her head and following again. Damn paranoia... Annie, who had actually sped up to be directly in line with Rosa, moved through the area with ease and was able to help navigate the girl a bit better as they continued after the Linoone. [/scrolly]

[Ball Rat]

The Linoone continued on a ways farther and soon the sound of crying could be heard. Finally, the weasel-like Pokemon led them to the source of the crying -- a Teddiursa. He appeared to have been hurt as there was a fairly small cut on his left ear and another on his left cheek. The Linoone sat beside him at sat up, sniffing at the girls. Surely they'd help if they could, right?

Back at the camp, the Natu sighed and nodded. <You are right... and he did. I've been trying this for weeks -- probably near two months now! -- and he still hasn't quite got the hang of it. I thought that maybe... just maybe, he'd gotten it this time but I guess not. We're not quite sure why he can't Teleport... and he doesn't sleep as much as most Abra, either. He sleeps more like you'd expect a human to. Most he normally sleeps is twelve hours and it's usually less. He doesn't talk much, either, so I'm not sure what's wrong with him.> The Abra, already recovered from the collision and fall, just had his head lowered and picked mildly at the ground in defeat.

[Snow Soul]

Suddenly they came upon a teddiursa. Her eyes easily picked out the cuts on his ear and cheek. Walking over she knelt infront of him. "Hello. I'm Rikka." Of course she didn't stay kneeling she ended up plopping on her butt in the snow. Picking up the pokemon she pulled out her scarf again and dunked it in the snow. Using her hands to melt the snow on her scarf she gently began cleaning the cut. "Rosa could you talk to him while I clean these cuts please." Moon sat and tilted her head. At the Natu's explanation she chuckled a bit. <Don't worry your not that odd. Just a little different. If you want to know an odd pokemon how bout imagining a Wingull whos terrified of water.> Lifting up her paw she patted him on the head. <I bet all ya need to do is spend some time with another Abra. My Trainer has an abra called cloud and just added another. An Alakazam that is.> She was sure Rikka could help him if he wanted to come with. If not Rikka would just end up loving on him till being odd didn't worry him anymore. [/scrolly]

That... but... Momma.... And just as suddenly as that, the image of the fire hit Rosa, and she flinched rather hard before managing to block it out again. She... she had to help the Teddiursa first! After a moment, Rosa realized that Rikka had spoken and managed a smile. "Oh hi..." she spoke before kneeling down. "I'm Rosa," she smiled. [/scrolly]

[Ball Rat]

The Teddiursa sniffled, looking up at the two girls. As he was scooped up, he squirmed a little but the Linoone quickly put herself right in front of him and used gestures and small noises to assure him it would be alright. He whined slightly but relaxed a little into Rikka's grip, just slightly fidgeting out of nervousness. The cold on his cuts made him wince but he was watching Rosa curiously so he was able to avoid squirming away or anything of the sort. She was just so cute... and yet she had seemed uncertain... maybe even scared a moment ago. He wondered why.

The Natu immediately looked offended. <What's wrong with me teaching him? I can Teleport! He's just scared he'll make a mistake, that's why he's having difficulties.> Not only did he feel insulted, he felt ignored. This new Pokemon felt it was better to talk to Abra than the one who'd started the conversation with him. What was this about? The Abra, on the other hand, had flinched away from the patting paw. When he realized it wasn't a hostile action, however, he felt sheepish and lifted his hands to cover his face shamefully. He either didn't understand that Moon was suggesting he should join her or he didn't like the idea. Although... he didn't say anything at all so far, either.

The linoone must have been a motherly figure to the Teddiursa. Looking to Rosa she noticed a fear? flicker over her features. Rikka blinked as the little girl seemed to snap out of it and help distract the little Teddiursa. Noticing the interest the pokemon had in Rosa she smiled. It seemed the pokemon were drawn to the girl. Once the cuts were clean she remembered the band-aids were back at her bag. "Wanna carry him back? My band-aids are back at my bag." Carefully she held the pokemon out to Rosa. Moon's eyes widened as she was basically chastised by the Natu. <I'm sorry I didn't mean it that way. I just thought that another Abra might help boost his confidence a bit.> She could feel that the natu had felt ignored by her comment. She didn't mean it honestly. Noticing the Abra flinch away from her paw she tilted her head and wondered what that had been about. Rikka was way better at these things then she was. Maybe she should go get Rikka but she had walked off to help the Linoone already. Lowering her ears slightly she watched the Natu and Abra both. <Ah...um sorry.> She didn't want to make enemies out of these two. [/scrolly]
