teady breath, steady aim. Peering through the darkness takes all but one discerning eye, her thoughts swallowed in favour of maintaining her cover. The Togepi that squirms in their hands is no joke, its cries for help reaching no one in these secluded parts of the city. Where had it come from? She isn't quite sure herself. But what she does know is that it doesn't belong to these group of people, not when it so vehemently rejects their presence.

When the target lines up with her shot, the trigger is pulled. A yell of pain comes with the loosening of their grip on the pokemon, the little egg squealing as it falls from their hands. Blink once and the Togepi vanishes, snatched up by a swooping Rookidee as he flies true. While the poachers are stunned by this turn of events, she descends upon them with judgement in hand, her mask burnt deep into each of their memories.

A quick right punch to the gut is enough to wind the leader, a roundhouse kick sending him tumbling to the ground as her Pancham helps to sweep his feet from under him. Whilst her Cubchoo freezes the exit, her Teddiursa begins to round the stragglers up, baring her fangs at any that dare to show fear before her.

Cracking her knuckles, Yrsa takes a deep breath and rolls her shoulder back.

One down, two to go.

What's all this then?


The leader collapsed to the floor with a wheeze while his lackey held the spot he had been shot at with a low hiss, the two men quickly growing alarmed as the girl's several pokemon descended upon the place.

Seeing things quickly go south, the leader did the only thing he could.

"NIKITA!" He boomed, the name echoing around the warehouse.

A single cage was slowly settled onto the floor in response, its metallic ring somehow echoing loudly in the warehouse as a large, imposing man wearing a binnie squared up his shoulders, looking unperturbed by everything as he released a low exhale of breath.

Nikita Petrovski was a stoic man of few words, an unblinking gaze and gloriously dyed facial hair.

A man of the frigid north, nobody quite knew who exactly he was- but his papers were legit. Or as legit as they could get, so... with impressive size, nerves of steel and impressive bouncing capabilities, he had managed to gain himself a spot in the otherwise unremarkable Poaching band.

A bearded Riolu named Dmitry was his only companion at all times.

This otherwise totally unremarkable duo turned to face the would be heroine, stone faced and seemingly unperturbed by her presence or her several pokemon.

s cautious as she may be, she had not accounted for another person. In fact, she hadn't heard anything about this gang of thieves having a 4th member added to the pack. Was he a new addition? He sure as hell didn't resemble them when it came to style and aura.

Regardless, Yrsa readies up, rolling her shoulders back as she takes a fighting stance. While Cubby and Pom turn to take care of the remaining lackeys, Winnie eyes the leader, raising her hand and slapping it firmly against his cheek. This leaves her with the stranger, with the very obviously evil facial hair and resting bitch face to match... He even has a name that tells of his background.

Sort of.

If he's a person of the frigid north, then so is she - The winters have never been kind to her, but they've sure as hell trained a hunter that knows how to go for a killer blow. Only thing is, she hesitates to hurt the Riolu he has - A pokemon merely follows their trainer, and some are trained into subservience through terrible means.

"Are you really on their side?"

Her voice crackles through a modifier, one that gives nothing about her identity - As much as it can conceal with her appearance as is. All she needs now is an answer from him.

The only response she got was a blank faced 'come at me bro', with the bearded Riolu in the background blowing an irreverent raspberry at her and her pokemon.

"OF COURSE HE'S ONE OF US, NIKITA WILL WRECK YOUR SHIT, YOU FLAT COSPLAYER!" Screamed one of the men on the floor.

either a denial nor confirmation. The gang member's words do nothing but add onto to the rush of white noise she sinks into. Rolling her shoulders back, Yrsa takes a deep breath in, tilting her head to crack her neck as she readies up.

Pom is quick to rush to her side, twirling the leaf in her mouth and leaning into her stance as she Taunts the Riolu to take the first move. On the other hand, Yrsa takes her invitation without the slightest hint of hesitation, swinging a mean right hook at the man's face, only to duck down at the last moment and direct her left fist into his chest.

It's probably gonna hurt her knuckles, but had always told her that this line of work wouldn't be easy.

He wasn't fooled.

His hand moved, catching the girl's fist at the wrist and twisting down with his palm before shoving her back.



He moved with deceptive speed, following after her swiftly as he stepped close, hands flying through the air as he attempted to grab her.

He needed to find a way to get her out of his... 'allies' sight. He didn't like getting rough with a woman so young, but he would have to throw her out of the building.

Dmitry, for his part, smiled at his opponent from underneath his beard, eyes narrowing.

Before blurring into motion, fist snapping at Pom's face-

To snatch the leave out of her maw and place it into his own.



Dmitry used Bullet Punch to try and steal Pom's leaf.

tupid observant people and not falling for bluffs. She winces at the shoving but pays no heed to it the moment he tries to come right after her. Side stepping his grab seems easy enough, yet he's unrelenting in his pursuit. It probably won't do her good to continue fighting in a space as limited as this. If she isn't careful, she might just find herself grappled and tackled to the ground.

And Arceus knows if there's anything that comes close to her hatred for her family, it's her intolerance of having to rely on someone as weird as for help.

Nikolas has no need to toss her out of the window, she does so herself with absolute ease, flipping over the window sill and taunting him to follow suit. Meanwhile, Pom is more than convinced of her opponent's intentions, a palm forcefully shoved towards his stomach as her gaze flits towards his moustache. If he intends to snatch her leaf, then she sure as well will snatch his beard, whether it comes off naturally or by force.

Nikita was swift to follow, vaulting over the broken window and landing firmly on his feet outside.

"Amateur work." He spoke, suddenly. His Russian accent was thick and real, the result of years of training spent in the frozen, merciless motherland.

As he continued walking towards her, the man carried himself as if he could see through her, shaking his head as he looked her up and down.

"Your fighting ability reproachable. Your planning embarrassing. Your costume is subpar. What did you hope to accomplish here today?"

He crossed his arms over his chest. Now that he had chased her here, far away from the prying eyes and ears of his 'allies', he could speak with a measure of freedom- even if his intentions might perhaps not be quite yet clear to the girl.

"Tell me, girl. Why did I chase you here?"

osh, this man really was quite the critic, huh? Though she sits through his lecture without thinking to interrupt him, there's an idleness in her posture that indicates her disinterest in his talk.

"No one said this work was gonna be flashy."

Unlike her mentor, , Yrsa was always one to try and keep her operations on the lowdown. She didn't need recognition for her deeds, nor did she want to walk out of this with pride. She's here to right the wrongs of this world in her own way, and that's all she needs to continue down this path.

While Nikita was being kept busy here, her trio of capable bears would probably have made quick work of the remaining gang members. And with any luck, they would have broken the rest of the smuggled pokemon out of their cages. But she'd be dumb to tell him about her thought process, even dumber to give him any hints that might send him barrelling back towards the escaping pokemon.

"The question isn't why did you chase me here. It should be why are you even here? Working with scum like them?"

He was going to slap sense into this brat until she had cheek pouches.

"Sure they didn't." Nikita said dryly in his perfect russian accent, looking thoroughly unconvinced. "If that useless mask is not an attempt at theatrics, then what exactly is it, Ms. Pokkenger Jr.?"

He was retired from caped heroics. Why did he have to give a rookie the 101?

"I would implore you to think the question over. You might be surprised to learn that criminals and thugs aren't as foolish as some might think." The man said as he rolled his shoulders, popping his neck from side to side before reaching over to grasp at his russian parka.

He swept it off himself, dropping it to the floor. Built like a fridge with a frowny face and a beard, Nikita cracked his knuckles.

"What makes you think I'm any different from them anyway?" The tall, muscled and handsome man said, apparently believing there truly was nothing separating him from the background mob of unidentifiable thugs he seemingly associated with.

Anything to better his craft.

okkenger Jr

How did he know?

It takes her a great amount of willpower not to trip over herself at that moment, but that doesn't quell the anxious buzzing in her chest. She can barely focus on the questions he poses, failing to find the words to answer whenever she tries. All she can see is the way he preps himself for another showdown, all she can hear is the pounding of her heart in her ears.

Until she hears the signal, that is.

A set of firecrackers set off by her trio, implying that they would be making a hasty retreat. Given the lack of pokemon rushing out of the warehouse, they probably failed to accomplish their goal but they'd most certainly sent a message with their little fists.

"You would know the answer to that best." She quips back, as weak of a reply it may be. There's no time for her to get snarky as she starts to make a break for it, dropping a homemade smoke bomb to cover her trails. When Winnie, Pom and Cubby meet up with her, they hand her the Togepi that had been flailing in the trappers hands when they first began their raid.

Though they hadn't managed to do much, they'd still stopped this little one from falling into the wrong hands, so that had to make up for something, right? The next step would be getting them to safety then...

Perhaps, she should talk to sometime soon.

A smoke bomb goes off, and as the smoke clears, the heroine and her team has disappeared, taking one Togepi with them into the night.

Standing silently underneath the moonlight, Nikita rubbed at his chin while staring at the spot the girl previously occupied, humming in thought.

"Not too bad." He mutters as small steps approach from behind.

Raki slowly comes to stand before him, missing a large chunk of his beard and sporting a bump on his head.

"Not bad at all." The blonde man ammended with a laugh, throwing back his head with a grin, before crossing his arms over his chest. "Wonder if we'll be seeing each other again... Well, in any case..."

The sound of glass shattering cracked through the night, his 'companions' panicked shouts following a moment later.

"Oh dear. It seems the heroine's hidden Aegislash has freed our batch. We'll have to return to base empty handed..." He 'sighed'.

What the little heroine didn't know wouldn't hurt her growth.
