[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu shivered as she walked though the snow, though she was wearing her winter outfit the piercing cold was still getting to her. She was only out here to find a pokemon that would evolve into a beautiful ghost type. A snorunt, she had poked around and heard that a Froslass would be hard to find but its first stage, so she poked around some more and heard she heard they where common in Glacial Village. The main reason she wanted one was because her Mother had a Froslass, the Froslass her Mother raised a strong and beautiful pokemon. Otsuyu loved her Mother's Froslass, though now she wanted one of her own. Otsuyu's eyes scanned the area around her looking for any signs of moment. She knew she would not find one right away.. But she was willing to stay as long as it took. Otsuyu then called out Akora, her Zorua. the little dark type would help her know if a pokemon was around. Otsuyu looked down at her cute little dark type, " Zor!!" Akora said happily and wagged her tail. "H-hey A-a-akora, I-I need your h-help to keep a look out for any Snorunt." Otsuyu said though clattering teeth. The little dark type nodded, she then kept her ears and eyes open. No moving thing was going to escape her sights. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

Though cold as it normally was, the air of the freezing north was actually a bit warm to the normal inhabitants of the area. Thus, the poke-life was actually stirring quite a lot at the moment. A few Spearow flew in a flock overhead. Despite the cold, they were headed further north for some reason. A Cubchoo could be seen stacking up some sort of frozen blocks into an igloo formation not too far away but under the cover of a tree. A Stantler was chewing on a potted plant outside of a snow coated house farther off, and resting on the back of it was a Smoochum who appeared to be trying to get his attention.

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Akora's ears twitched as she heard all the pokemon that where around them, though she did not hear the cry of the pokemon that Otsuyu was looking for. So the small dark type just kept walking, listening for any sounds of a Snorunt. Otsuyu was now hugging herself due to the cold. her teeth clattered as she walked behind Akora. The young girl looked up when she heard the Spearow flying over head, she was no expart is flying types... But don't bird pokemon normally like warmer places? Shaking her head she kept walking. Man this snow was deep and cold... Otsuyu was sure she was starting to lose feeling in her feet =-=;; She should have gotten some better snow boots... Otsuyu sighed and looked around and happened to see the Cubchoo. Ok even she had to admit the little ice type was cute but it was not the pokemon she had come to look for. " A-any s-signs of a Snorunt, Akora?" Otsuyu asked through clattering teeth. Akora looked up and shook her head causeing Otsuyu to sigh, she knew it would not be easy but she refused to give up.

A Minccino could suddenly be seen barring through the snow with what appeared to be--... reigns on itself ad a sled carrying on behind it? And was that another Minccino riding on the sled? What in the word? Well, at least they were having fun, right?

Flying overhead, a Starly could be seen gliding with ease on the wind. However, where there should have been color, she was completely white. It was hard to tell from height whether she was albino or leucistic, but one could at least assume she was one of the two.

Further off, a Lillipup could be seen digging something up from the snow.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Akora was able to hear the Minccino before they came and was able to jump out of the way, unfortunately Otsuyu was not attention. She had some what dazed out only to be rudely awakened by the two Minccino, the young girl who was not normally startled let out a high pitched scream and fell over backward into the snow. stunned Otsuyu did not move for a few minutes as she she stared up at the sky. What....What had just happened??? Akora did not even try to yell at the pokemon who just scared her trainer, she ran over to Otsuyu and checked to see if she was alright. Otsuyu blinked and slowly sat up, hugging herself as she shivered. Maaan now she was cold all over >.<;;;; Otsuyu looked at Akora and smiled weakly. " Well that's a fist time in a long time something scared me.." Otsuyu said with a laugh as she stood back up again. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

The small normal types didn't even realize they had scared the girl and were instead continuing on their way as if nothing had happened. Farther off, in a snow covered tree, a Tranquill appeared to be watching all that had happened with a calm expression. Ah such a boring day for her, it seemed, when all she could do was watch things pass by. A Pidgey suddenly landed on the branch next to the Tranquill and started chirping rapidly to which the latter replied something in poke-speak.

Further away, a Cryogonal could be seen staring out from behind a stack of wood. What exactly was he doing? He wasn't going to say just yet... however, his laugh was kind of ... creepy.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu looked around and sighed, there seemed to be a lot of pokemon around here but no Snorunt... But she was not going to give up, just then Akora's ears twitched as she heard some creepy laughter. The small dark typed spun around a few times till she was able to tack where the laughter was coming from. "Zorua!" Akora barked and growled at the Cryogonal. Otsuyu blinked and looked around to see what Akora was growling at.. Not being able to see it because whatever it was, was hiding put Otsuyu on edge. "Who's there!" Otsuyu demanded. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

The laughing increased and grew hysteric in nature. Suddenly the Cryogonal came rushing straight at Otsuyu forming an Ice Beam and launching it at Akora. Well... that was one way to start a battle, and at least he hadn't attacked the girl directly. Still... what the heck was he laughing about?

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu eyes grew wide as a Cryogonal shot out of its hiding place and attacked. It seemed to be coming right her so the young girl jumped and rolled out of the way. quickly she stood back up and turned around. Otsuyu's shocked exprassion turned angry as she started to glare at the Cryogonal. Akora!! Use flamethrower! Otsuyu called out. Akora dodge the ice beam and started to run, then used flamethrower at the ice type. He was going to pay for picking a fight with her! D< [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

The fire came rushing towards the Cryogonal, yet he quickly formed a Double Team, avoiding the fire attack before releasing a Haze that suddenly started to seep into the air. The clones of the Double Team even started to fade into the creepy atmosphere, yet the creepy laughter only continued to grow turning into shrieks and squeals.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu frowned as she looked around, well this pokemon may not be a ghost but it sure knew how to act like one. She would have to stay on her toes with this one.. Akora stopped moving and looked around, her ears twitched as she listened for any sounds of the Cryogonal. Though the shrieks and squeals where not helping very much. " Akora!! Stay calm and alert! Don't let Cryogonal scare you!"" Otsuyu called out to her pokemon. Akora nodded and kept her eyes open for any sudden movements. She was not going to let a creep of a pokemon get the better of her! [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

The laughing grew louder, and suddenly a large shard of Ice went flying straight towards Akora from within the mist. Another followed quickly after that. The haze only continued to thicken, and it was questionable as to whether the Cryogonal had used yet another move.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu frowned not likeing this at all, she could not see a thing! What was this ice type's deal anyway? It was almost acting like a ghost or something! " Akora! Move and keep a close eye out! Don't let this ice type get under your skin!" Otsuyu called out. Akora Jumped out of the way but was hit on the back. She yelped in pain but did not fall. The dark fox then moved back and tried to get out of the haze so she could see. ready to use another move if the Cryogonal attacked again. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

As the fox moved out of the cloud of haze and just to the edge of it, the Cryogonal remained within shifting around here and there within it. He was biding his time when it came down to it though why not even he really knew himself. It was simply fun he reasoned out. He enjoyed unnerving others and making them on edge in one form or another. It was all some twisted game to him, but then again it was all he had ever known. Life had been hard on him to say the least of it, but he wouldn't go into that now. There was simply no reason to. Yet another shrill laugh escaped into the air from somewhere within the haze. However, it seemed that he was still not attacking or moving forwards. He remained where he was perpetually shrouded for now.

[arekksuotaku]

Snow fell around him as he walked through the drifts toward his old home in Glacial Village. It had been some time since he had last visited his mother and he felt that since he was in the area it would be as good a time as any. He looked up into the sky and the gentle snow fall came down and melted on his face and clothes. He had lived in the area all his life so he was used to the cold and for this time of year it was actually pretty comfortable even if it was still cold enough to snow. He had dressed appropriately for the weather with his hooded black jacket and long blue jeans. His boots were made especially for the deep snow and were water proof to keep his feet from getting wet and freezing off. On his back was his backpack carrying all of his supplies and sleeping on top of it was his best friend Frost who was a Glaceon. She had been his companion since the two were young, she had been a Christmas present from his mother when he was around eight years old.

As he walked along he wanted to keep an eye out for any interesting ice types. He had been all over the continent in his travels but he always fancied ice type pokemon above all else yet he only had Frost and Snow drift. A few minutes past and he felt Frost lift her head up suddenly and look off to the right. He looked off into the distance and couldn't see anything at first but suddenly he heard sounds coming from over the hill. Frost jumped off his shoulders and looked up at him and motioned with her head too follow her. "What do you think is going on over there Frost?" he said. She looked up at him with a serious face and raced up the hill toward the sounds. As he followed he could see what looked like a large cloud of mist forming and a small girl shouting orders to her pokemon who was standing outside the cloud. From inside the haze he could here what sound like laughter, a very creepy laughter though which even gave him the chills. He pulled out a pokeball and released Lora his toxicroak, "Lora use vacuum wave on the cloud of haze but be sure not too pull in the small fox pokemon and its trainer alright." She looked at him and gave a nod of approval and rushed down the hill and formed her vacuum wave and started too suck in the haze and whatever pokemon was creating it.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu stood there unsure what to do. She could not see into the haze and dared not tell Akora to run into it blindly and attack. There had to be a way to draw that blasted ice type out of the haze so the battle could go on. But no idea's came to mind. But soon after she heard a voice and turned to see another human had showed up and started to "help" This made the young girl frown as she felt the move the other pokemon was doing. Ugh! She did not need help from a human! Just who did this person think he was? But thanks to that move Otsuyu was able to spot the Cryogonal. " Akora! Use Flamethrower!" Otsuyu called out. Aovided the attack used by the toxicroak Akora used Flamethrower once more on the Cryogonal. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

The Cryogonal thought he was safe, indeed. He was secluded in the mist and simply kept letting out streams of creepy laughter. However, when his shroud seemed to suddenly fall away being dragged up by some other move, he was left quickly trying to back up least he be attacked. However, this also made it clear which of his clones was the real one, and thus the full blast of flame that exploded out from the pokemon hit dead on. A terrible shriek of sorts escaped from the Cryogonal as he fell back from the flame damage feeling the residual burn of it as well. Groaning, he forced himself up weakly before forming a Poison Jab and quickly rushing straight at Akora. If he couldn't hide, he might as well attack!

[arekksuotaku]

He watched as the haze was slowly pulled in by Lora's vacuum wave and revealed a familiar form. It was a Cryogonal that was attacking the girl and her pokemon. He had seen them many times growing up there in the village though he didn't think the strange sounds were coming from that type of pokemon. As he watched the Cryogonal it formed a poison jab and began to attack the girls pokemon. Lora looked up at him for his next orders and he just shook his head, "We helped enough, why don't we see what happens next." Lora jumped back on top of the hill and stood next too him waiting and watching in case her trainer decides to let her back in too the fight. All three of them stood there and waited to see what will happen next, though he was sure the little girl would be victorious.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] At the sudden attack Akora could not avoid the poison jab. Yelp in pain Akora was set flying a little ways but stood back up. But this time there was something wrong, Akora had been Poisoned.. But the little dark fox was not going to let that stop her! Otsuyu could tell Akora was not feeling well but knew she would refuse to be called back. But if things got wrose she would make Akora come back. " Akora! Use Agility then Flamethrower again!" Otsuyu called out keeping a closer eye on Akora as she went in for the attack. Akora used Agility and ran right for Cryogonal. Useing Agility one more time the Akora used Famethrower when she got closer to the ice type. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Jay]

As the fox pokemon used an Agility, the Cryogonal twitched about trying to calm the pain he had been inflicted with by using a Recover. Thankfully it gave him a boost of energy and strength renewed. However, the burns that continued to inflict extra damage on him were enough to make him just want to flop in the snow to somehow 'cool off'. Suddenly flames were coming at him again, and before he could do anything, the ice type was hit heavily by the flames. Crying out, he fell backwards twitching about in the snow for a few seconds before succumbing to the burn and fainting.
