A Timeless, Old Attraction (Closed/Mod)

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Rather than take his regular companion (that being, the very same one forced on him), Garcian decided now to take a Pokemon that seemed to desperately wish to have some action at last. If one were to make a guess, they would have known by know that Edgeworth is more reserved and seems to fight when he wishes or feels totally necessary, and Lexus was being held up. Clearly, the most viable option is that barbaric little Pawniard. One thing he hadn't QUITE thought up was the simple fact that he doesn't understand the creature's language, as opposed to Lexus, who can act as a translator and help them in avoiding confrontation.

But this isn't no sissy Larvesta rabble, this is the whole reason for the show - fighting. Now the second question arises: For what reason could Garcian possibly be visiting a place such as this? Perhaps it would be best to describe exactly what he told to his Pawniard just on the opening steps to enter the tower. As in, right at this moment.

A howling wind fills the air as the pair stand outside the doorway. "I had heard rumor about the clock tower stopping to signify that order will only exist so as long as the Loyalists were in power. It's something of a curious case to me. I do not believe in superstition or anything like that, but maybe whatever's preventing it from being fixed is worth checking out. Not only that, but I'll be able to hold over Cricket's head the fact that I managed to scale the Clock Tower while she hadn't. It'll give me a cool, natural high."

Bellator stood still and looked up at his trainer as he described his reasoning for entering. His dribble was boring in itself, something he didn't quite care for. What he did care for is what sort of enemies he'd find in the place, what sort of bastards he would have to make pay for having the mere shameless arrogance for even stepping up against him in the ring. He'll make them pay. He'll make them ALL pay.

This, he thought to himself internally, as they made their first steps actually inside of the clock tower, as Garcian turned his head up to get a good look around the tower.

[Jay]

Just inside the clock tower, a pair of small electrical pokemon could be seen. A Plusle and what appeared to be a solid white Minun with red eyes could be seen chasing one another. Every few seconds or so, the Plusle would tag the Minun and then run off in a different direction causing the Minun to chase after the Plusle and tag his companion before running off in a different direction entirely. Both pokemon seemed rather oblivious to the fact that someone had just entered the tower and were instead too busy playing their game to even stop and look over.

Farther off from the two pokemon, a Pikachu was watching the pair with an affectionate smile on her face. However, this expression fell as she looked over to the sound of someone entering the clock. Upon seeing the man who had entered, the turned her head to one side but said nothing.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Garcian stood still as he saw the twin Pokemon run about with each other, noting the fact that one seemed to be totally white, a strange quality, yet highly intriguing. Whatever fun they were having he didn't much at all care for, just some sort of strange game of tag they were sharing. As the Pikachu looked at him, he turned to look at her. Raising a brow, as though questioning wordlessly, "What are you looking at?" he moved on. The affairs of these pests loitering in the clockworks meant nothing to him. That is, had he not been interrupted by his Pawniard.

Bellator had his knives at either side of him, arms held still in a neutral stance. He stepped toward the Pikachu, glaring right at her. Oh for the love of Arceus.. Garci thought, realizing what his Pokemon wanted. The pawn also saw the pair that the Pikachu was watching over. These maggots aren't worth his time, but the mouse looks as though she could provide a proper challenge. "Bellator, we aren't to waste our time on-" "Pawn." The creature interrupted him, uncaring for his protests.

He wouldn't challenge her immediately, no sir. He may enjoy a good fight every once in a while (once in a while being all the time), but he has his manners. <Name.> His stance intensified somewhat, as he moved his legs apart and stood his ground roughly. He wouldn't want to inappropriately fight an anonymous opponent, nope. Bellator has class and manners, and he would rather fight his uncivilized, unworthy opponents while knowing their names to inform their next of kin.

Garcian put a palm over his face, sighing. He wanted so dearly to return Bellator, realizing how poor of an idea it would be to let him assault an innocent Pokemon so immediately. Honestly, it would be more of a problem to him, as he would have to strain himself by telling the Pawniard what to do. It's a waste of time in his busy, busy schedule. He stepped in front of the Pawniard and the Pikachu, trying to prevent Bellator from getting any closer.

Even then, however, the Pawniard would have his way. He made a break for it, right between Garcian's legs, crouching and running in front of him, again returning to the similar combat stance he had prior. Garcian realized he would be too close to the rodent if he moved any further, and had given up. Wonderful. Now he has to waste his energy, which could have been used for much FINER things, to have a battle that he didn't even approve of. I only hope the rat doesn't take him too seriously. Nobody ever seems to.

[Jay]

As the Pawniward made a fighting stance, the Pikachu stared at him quietly with something of a calm yet defiant look. At the question of her name, she sighed. <Lightburst> was the final answer that was given. It was what her mother had deemed her when she had accidentally exploded a few lights with her electrical powers.

The Plusle and the Minun both seemed to take notice finally as the Pawniard seemed to quietly defy his trainer. However, after a few seconds, both simply went back to their games as though it were none of their concern. The Pikachu watched this for a brief moment only to turn her head again and stare at her challenger who had made to move in front of his trainer again. <Why are you purposing a fight?> she asked dryly looking at the Pawniward as if he too was one of the younglings that she watched over.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Garci hunched down slightly, for reasons unknown to him. It was probably the instinctual position a Trainer took to prepare for a fight and get a proper look at the battleground, but he wasn't even sure if it was even going to escalate into that. Frankly, he'd rather just keep progressing up the daunting stairways and floors to gather evidence of his presence there and see what else the place had. The albinic Minun somewhat tempted him, but again, he feels he would be wasting his time and separating those poor, poor twins. Wait, did he seriously just consider that as a reason not to capture it? Still, if he hadn't given Bellator, the crazy thing, his way, he would fear for his own safety.

The alleged warrior nodded as a sort of salute as the Pikachu stated her name. <Bellator,> he replied, knives still at either side of him. He pulled them up for a second and clashed them together, sliding their cold metals apart and doing it another time, perhaps as an attempt to intimidate. They certainly did look very sharp, though that probably wouldn't say a terrible lot to deter the Pikachu. The Pikachu's question entertained him. There was only one reason for which he would challenge the electric mouse, and he had thought it obvious enough to himself.

<Challenge. You look strong enough to fight as you are, and so I am challenging you.> The reason was plain and simple enough, though not quite what one would call neither eloquent nor charming. Finally, the Bellator stuck his knives out in front of him, brandishing them into the air in front of them, and hopping to his sides. The thing was quick on its feet, and was very willing to show it off. Granted that he had no idea what to expect from the mouse, except for what could possibly be electricity. He's not going to make any bets on that, though.

Granted that he hadn't quite launched an attack yet, he seemed prepared for one. To prove his willingness to go through with it, he honed his knives, doing that same clashing movement he had done just a moment ago, only several times, in very rapid succession. In doing this, he had essentially used Hone Claws, preparing his knives as well as himself. The knives had more of a sheen to them, in effect, and it appears that the Pawniard had been pumped up as a result, hopping at a somewhat faster speed than he had before.

Garcian had no positive reaction to this. His Pokemon had just used a move that he didn't even command him to do. It's not that he really minded the move's use itself, no, it would be very practical to use in this situation, but the very fact that Bellator had the nerve to disobey his trainer to the point where he used a move on his own frustrated him to no end. He shakily pulled out his Ball, but at the last moment, resisted temptation and stuffed it back into his pocket. Sighing, he shook his head at the Pikachu as some sign of apology.

[Jay]

Watching the dark steel type prepare himself for battle, the Pikachu sighed dryly. She truly wasn't one to actually enjoy battl especially given her line didn't really require it. Happiness came when it came, and evolution beyond that required a stone. However, after a few seconds, she slowly shrugged her shoulders before suddenly using an Agility in order to make herself faster in turn. It was not so much an attacking move as a defense. She could avoid things easier when faster even if the Hone Claws upped a few stages as well.

The Plusle and Minun had stopped playing again and turned to watch the events as they began to play out. Neither one said anything but simply watched silently.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Bellator remained in stance, prepared for anything the Lightburst would be able to dish out at him. He hadn't expected, however, for her to match and even go beyond his enhanced speed with Agility. This turn had frustrated him entirely, as he clashed his knives together again. This time, not an attempt to use Hone Claws again, but to keep them in an X formation. He began to shake violently for a moment, holding something within himself, before unleashing the X.

What was unleashed was not a slash, but a whiff forward not meant to attack her. Rather, the Pawniard now had an intimidating change in eye color for a moment, a glowing Yellow. This was a Scary Face, his attempt at discouraging the Pikachu back into a regular state of speed. What he didn't quite tend to realize was that the Pikachu could use Agility again and simply replenish her increased speed, and that this could very easily become a war of attrition where he would have to wait for the Pikachu to become tired or annoyed.

Garci realized this the moment Bellator pulled off the attack, but not wanting to interrupt a fight that he hadn't even started, he moved slowly and silently over to the electrical twins. Rather than do anything peculiar or hostile, he sat down, a defeated look on his face simply because of the fact that his Pokemon actually refused to hold back at all. He may as well go into a safe area with the Plusle and Minun, rather than risk being caught in the crossfire of the fight. Wonderful. He's fitting in with pests now.

[Jay]

The Pikachu's eyes narrowed a bit at the Scary Face, and though her pride probably refused to let her admit it, she was intimidated causing her speed to be lowered. Despite this, she formed yet another Agility and formed a Thunderbolt directly after that. It seemed that she had finally decided to take the offensive at least.

Meanwhile, the Plusle looked at the Minun, and the Minun looked at the Plusle. After a brief set of words between the two of them, they both moved over a bit closer to the man. Reaching out one arm, the Plusle made to poke Garci before quickly backing up in case he did anything in retribution. The Minun simply giggled a little.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

The Pawniard immediately realized the error in his plan when the Pikachu used Agility yet again, and noticed the mouse, after having re-strengthened her speed, was charging a Thunderbolt. Deciding to use this against her, he stoutly stood his ground in front of the mouse. He had waited for her to fire the ray of lightning at him, and took the attack head-on. Stepping backwards in an indignant irritation, a grin would have been displayed under that white mask of his. True, the attack battered him somewhat, but he would be able to use this to his advantage.

Garci, however, had no idea what Bellator was intending. He just watched his Pokemon get blasted by a bolt of lightning and reel back from its effects. What are you doing? Why did you just.. stand there? Obviously he could determine that he was planning something, but what could possibly be gained from just standing there and taking electricity to the face?

Just as he recovered from the attack, Bellator leaped forward at the Pikachu. The shock of the thunderbolt could still be felt in an incredibly unpleasant sting throughout his body, but he managed to shrug it off and attack. He jabbed his right knife forward at the Pikachu, and sliced slowly to the right, attempting to hit her with an Assurance, which had been strengthened from taking in damage only seconds ago.

As Garcian spectated, he felt a strange prod to his leg. He looked back to the two miniature rabbits, one of them giggling about whatever shenanigans they were up to. Cracking an awkward, aware smile, he turned back to the fight. It's not as though they were going to do it again, no, they were just being playful, right? Rather, he had a slightly concerned look on his face. Was Bellator going to do this the whole time? Take a hit from the Pikachu and immediately retaliate? No, he wouldn't do something so stupid.

[Jay]

Sadly for the Pawniward, Assurance did not work like that. Unlike Payback that retaliated and had a bonus as such, Assurance only gained a boost if the Pikachu had already been attacked in that turn as if by a double battle or something of that nature. It still did some damage, and certainly STAB counted for sure, yet the Pikachu took it well enough and remained standing. Forming a Reflect, the Pikachu raised her defenses rather quickly and remained ready for anything the Pawniward did.

Meanwhile, the two small electrical pokemon broke out into giggles all their own and finally started to scamper off somewhere deeper into the tower rather pleased with their games of sorts.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Bellator hadn't realized his error and still struck, feeling 'assured' (haw haw) that he had done at the very least significant damage in some sense. As the Pikachu boosted her defenses, as though raising a shield, he had become frustrated. They were consistently competing with their statistic boosts, be it speed or defense. Rather than attempt to meet or cause her defensive abilities to decline, however, he started to raise both of his blades in the air and clash them together constantly. The Pawniard made several rhythmic motions, proudly displaying his two hand-poniards.

His Swords Dance movement filled him with a great fervor, boosting the ferocity of his Attack to meet her prepared defenses. His dance ended with another leap forward, both blades headed down in her direction, arms shrouded in darkness. The leap strike was a Night Slash this time, and would likely be somewhat diminished in accuracy given how sudden it was done right after the dance.

While Bellator was engaged in the dance, and his subsequent Night Slash attempt, Garci noticed the two Pokemon run deeper into the tower. Remembering for a moment that the Pikachu had been watching, perhaps guarding, over the two, he attempted to get the Pikachu's attention, trying not to interrupt his Pokemon, whether the Night Slash succeeds or fails. "Er- Excuse me!" He stammered, at first, before pointing in the direction the two left in. "The Plusle and Minun, they're walking deeper into the tower." He realizes that having that albinic Minun would be able to get him a serviceable advantage over Cricket the terrible, and that he should make an attempt to capture it. Hopefully the pair wouldn't be long gone by now.

[Jay]

Powered up in attack and STAB, the Night Slash caused the Pikachu to cry out even with her defenses still heightened. However, she still hadn't given up and shook her head a bit only to hear the man's comment. Stopping and looking around suddenly very worried for the pair, the Pikachu looked back at the Pawniard and shook her head after a moment before suddenly using an Agility again and running away from the knife pokemon in order to seek out where the younglings had gone. Oh dear! She should have been looking after them not engaging in a battle. However, she couldn't for the life of her find where in the world they went. Dx Noooooo!

[Victor Von Doomstein]

Bellator twitched angrily as Lightburst ceased mid-fight to scamper off and go find a couple of inconsequential children. The very nerve disturbed him, as he clashed his knives together and used Hone Claws again to catch up to her. As much as he would like, he still wouldn't be able to equate to her speed, his usage only boosting him to half of her use of Agility. He didn't wish for it, but he decided to postpone the fight, for now. This was promoted by the simple fact that Garci was calling out his name while he tried to chase after the Pikachu. "Bellator!"

As much as Garcian hated it, he realized that he could put his Pokemon ambassador to very good use in this situation. It would allow transport through the clock tower with ease, and possibly even be able to convince the Minun onto his team so he could probably dangle it over Cricket's head like a cat to keys. He reluctantly releases the Larvesta, who looks around confusedly. "What do you want, Garci? I thought you were going with Bellator." "We've had a change of plans. This Pikachu lost a Plusle and Minun she was looking after. Could you help her?"

Bellator crossed his arms, rolling his eyes at Lexus. The fiery bug could outmatch him twice over, given her typing. Not only that, but he didn't very much like her more calmed, less impulsive nature nor her lack of desire for fighting. It just wasn't something he quite respected at all. Still, he's duty-bound to follow Garci, and whatever 'wisdom' he has. A thought that he and Garci seemed to share was that they would be able to encounter more Pokemon in the search, more targets to fight in Bellator's case, more rare Pokemon to collect in Garcian's.

Garci continued to point the direction where the two Pokemon had gone. Lexus moved up to the Pikachu and asked, <Excuse me, Garci asked me to assist you. I suppose he wishes for me to translate, or something to that note. We should start moving together, though, so we can at least catch up to them. Where do you believe they could have gone?> Garci, Bellator, and Lexus start walking in the direction they left in, hoping the Pikachu would follow along and talk with Lexus while moving.

[Jay]

<The Pikachu had continued to look about even when the Larvesta was released. However, upon being addressed, Lightburst turned her head and hesitated a very short moment. <I'm unsure> she answered back looking around a brief moment. <.....Actually...probably upstairs> she finished before suddenly starting off towards the stairs rather quickly. <They know they're not allowed up there too >_<; > she flinched a little at her own words but already coming to a sure conclusion that it was probably the place.

On her way, the Pikachu passed a Chatot that was oddly pecking at a wall insistently as though it could possibly have done him some sort of great wrong. If one actually stopped to look rather closely at what the Chatot was pecking at, he would see that a rather fearful looking Joltik was doing everything in her power to try and avoid being pecked by this odd bird.

The sound of feet on stairs could soon be heard as the Pikachu finally ascended up the spiraling stairs towards the top. She would on to pass a sleeping Hoothoot who was awkwardly resting on the stairs, yet still no sign of where the Plusle and Minun had gone.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

As they were running, Garci looked at the Chatot and the Hoothoot. A peanut gallery of Pokemon, just a couple of dumb birds. He was confused, of course, by the Chatot pecking at the wall, but didn't think about it for too long. He continued to follow the Pikachu, moving up the stairs with her, careful not to step on the owl. As they ascended to the higher floor, he surveyed the room for any sign of them, as well as anything else in the area.

Along the way, Bellator saw the Chatot. Its disdain for the wall was inexcusable, and he believed the thing should be beaten up for the mere offense of acting so stupid. As he moved forward to challenge it and its reign of wall-piercing, Garcian immediately grabbed him by one of his arms, dragging him along while they moved to the stairs. "We don't have any TIME for this, we've got to get moving!" Bellator, though wishing very dearly to break free of his grasp, couldn't quite do a thing, only able to try and squirm, of course, to absolutely no effect.

However, always-perceptive little Lexus noticed what Chatot was aiming for the whole time. While running with the group, she managed to call to her tiny fellow Bug type in distress, knowing full well how easy it could get the upper hand. <Use an electric attack to paralyze it, don't just keep trying to avoid it!> she said, as Garcian turned his head down to her. It appeared she was calling to the Chatot, and he scolded her. "Don't get its attention, Lexus!" She exasperatedly replied, "Are you too blind to see that a Pokemon is in trouble over there?" "Yes! The Chatot WILL be in trouble if it keeps breaking its beak against the wall, but that's none of our business!" It had been too late for her to run back to assist her, as they were already at the stairs by then.

[Jay]

The poor Joltik continued to try and avoid the Chatot's beak until hearing Lexus. Releasing a quick and rather startlingly powerful Discharge, the small electrical bug fought back shocking the Chatot hard and causing him to cry out in pain as a result. After a few seconds, the Chatot fell backwards while the Joltik then quickly squirmed up the wall and out of sight again.

Meanwhile, the Pikachu continued to dash up the stairs and finally stopped when she came to the very top. "Ka pi!" she called looking around for the two other electrical pokemon. A sudden startled cry echoed back causing the Pikachu to look off and catch sight of the Minun pulling hard at the Plusle's arm as he tried to free her from what appeared to be a massive sleeping Klinklang whose gears had pinched the tail of the Plusle. The Pikachu's eyes seemed to grow with concern before she bounded over poking and prodding at the large steel type and stating words to try and get the Klinklang to let go.

[Victor Von Doomstein]

While they had ascended the stairs, Lexus heard the sound of the Joltik's discharge from down below, and knew that the teeny, tiny spider had most assuredly been safe from certain danger. However, this stopped being relevant the further they had gone up. Secretly, she wished to see the Joltik after she escaped the confrontation, simply to know for sure she was safe. Still, she seemed deeply concerned by what they saw when the reached the top of the tower.

Garcian felt a secret success deep within. They had actually reached the top, surprisingly quicker than he at first expected. Still, there seemed to be one more obstacle in their path before he truly felt as though he had achieved something. The massive Gear Pokemon had trapped the poor Plusle's tail. Most assuredly, he felt he would be able to convince the Minun onto his team and hold a deep advantage over his spiteful enemy, the Cricket. Imagine the trades! Still, those gears were positively massive, and likely had strength proportional to their mammoth size. To turn against the thing would likely be very dangerous.

Most stricken of all by the newly-encountered Pokemon was Bellator. He had never seen a Klinklang of that size, not showing much consideration about the Plusle who had been trapped by it. Lexus and Garci stepped near the Klingklang, deep in thought. "Waking it up might require more than words," Garci said. "If we damage him, though, he might turn against us." Lexus agreed, thinking of what they could possibly do to loosen the rabbit from the gears' unintentional grasp.

To rouse the machine awake in any way might be a serious danger to the Plusle's tail anyway. It's very possible the gears would continue to grind and, if placed in just the right direction, grind up the rabbit's tail. However, if the Klinklang had been awoken, still by any means, it's highly likely that it will attack them. The only one capable of opposing it most properly, Garcian thought, would be Bellator or the Pikachu. Even Lexus stands a chance, given her typing advantage, but the size of the thing remained to be a daunting obstacle.

Lexus piped up. "I am able to use String Shot. It's possible that we could use it as a sort of lubricant to loosen up the Plusle's tail and get her free. All that it would need is for it to be heated up, so that it can act as a warmer fluid rather than something meant to stick." Garci rubbed his chin for a moment, before nodding. "Alright, use your natural, disgusting capabilities as an earwig to save the day, Lexus." She started to do just that, at first charging half of an Ember and keeping it within her mouth. When she felt she was unable to take it anymore, she webbed her frontlegs over her mouth and began to spit a heated up String Shot in the area where the tail had been trapped within the gears, in an attempt to lubricate her free.

Bellator, already filled with intense, stored boosts from his Hone Claws and Swords Dance, continued to prepare for a fight that he would hope would most assuredly happen. He held his arms, not his blades, in a crossed X-shape position again, as his body began to harden even further. He had been using Iron Defense, to prepare himself for more attacks.

[Jay]

The rather interesting maneuver of sorts had at first startled the Pikachu, yet when she saw that it appeared to be a motion to help rather than to hurt, she relaxed a bit and looked back towards the younglings she was trying to help. Taking hold of the Minun's waist as he held onto the Plusle, the Pikachu made to pull as much as possible. In another second, the Plusle slid forwards and landed on both the Pikachu and the Minun. All three cringed a little, yet the Plusle was safe at least.

Just then, the Klinklang seemed to suddenly start to spin as the creature did in fact wake up. "LANG!" was the shout of sorts as he called out wondering what was going on. Looking in every direction at once, the Klinklang finally settled his eye of sorts on the Pawniard. It had taken a defensive stance...which meant it wanted to fight! Was it he that had woken him? The Klinklang didn't doubt it and was possibly too much of one who jumped to such quick conclusions rather than talking things out. Forming and releasing a Thunderbolt, the Klinklang made to attack the Pawniard. However, as the electricity zoomed at the Pawn pokemon, it suddenly seemed to change direction and hit the Pikachu instead. Ah.... Lightningrod it seemed....

<Ugh... what is the meaning of this?> the Klinklang demanded looking around then. The Pikachu was silent but seemed to hold the now slightly shaking Plusle and Minun pair close to her as though she were going to protect them if the need arose. 'Frowning' and then looking sharply towards the man and his pokemon, the Klinklang 'frowned' again. <Well?>

[Victor Von Doomstein]

The Larvesta seemed to be surprised in seeing that her attempt to free the Plusle had been successful. <Thank goodness..> she said to herself, silently. Garci raised a brow as he turned to watch her maneuver having actual success. Granted that he had a great amount of doubt that it would actually help her, and thinking it would do more harm than good, he shrugged when he noticed the Pokemon was now free.

Of course, the Klinklang would respond adversely, just as Garcian and Lexus expected. For the moment that the Klinklang prepared its Thunderbolt, Bellator guarded himself for another electrical attack, likely much more powerful than that of the Pikachu's. However, as he watched the lightning suddenly arc into the Pikachu, he had been relieved, and stood at his regular offensive stance. The Klinklang attempted the first strike. Now, he felt there wasn't much the Gear Pokemon could do in retaliation to his attacks. He separated his feet further, and raised his right blade in the air, it shaking wildly as he prepared something.

Lexus hurriedly explained the reasoning behind awakening the massive Pokemon. <I'll tell you the meaning, if you do not mind it coming from myself. I was the one who sent that String Shot your way. I insist that I meant you no harm, however! That Plusle, she had her tail stuck in your gears, most likely when she and the Minun were playing. I was just trying to help lubricate her out of your gears. Please understand we me-> A somewhat long explanation had been suddenly interrupted.

"PAWN!" The time that Bellator took to prepare his attack seemed to have lasted as long as the Larvesta's explanation. Suddenly, he charged forward, while Garcian put his hands to his hips and shook his head. It's as though the thing doesn't understand the meaning of self-restraint. As the charge halted when he reached his target, his right hand, still raised in the air, swept downward in a chopping motion, a Brick Break attack aimed at the Klinklang.

[Jay]

The Klinklang seemed to listen rather carefully to the Larvesta's words and was truly about to fully accept them when he was suddenly smashed hard by the Brick Break. The Sword Dance, Hone Claws, and the natural weakness that existed on Steel against Fighting was enough to cause massive damage to the gear pokemon. The Klinklang grimaced in pain, yet he held on to consciousness and seemed to be more pissed off than before. Forming a Mirror Shot, the Klinklang attacked the Pawniard in question.

The Pikachu had sighed a little when the situation seemed to calm down a bit. However, when it seemed that the idiot Pawniard attacked that she quite literally face/palmed. Picking up the Plusle and Minun, she used yet another Agility to move them as quickly as she could away from the fight that was starting up. The Plusle whimpered a little, yet the Minun just clung to his twin.
