Upon entering the sweltering, pre-historic (pre-written-historic-anyway) heat, Xuan immediately returns to her pokéball despite being the one most curious about this RKS simulation. "And we've lost one," she smiles faintly, calling out her Glimmora Glimmer instead who looks at their surroundings with curiosity.

"I'm Cass, by the way - nice to meet you!" She wonders for a moment if that's a different scenario to before- ah, yeah, no, yep, that scream's still lowkey haunting her, or more the scenario that followed the last time she's been there. She turns to the younger kid, holding her ears closed to mute the sounds just a little bit. "WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?" she screams, trying to be heard over the not-Jigglypuff's screaming.

[attr="class","eris109"]A simulation doesn't have to be this realistic. Sweat makes her clothes stick to her skin with a deathly grip, her discontent only matched by the dead look that Reiner affords his surroundings.[break][break]

"How do yo-"[break][break]

Her words are cut off by the unholy screeching, digging into the very soul like nails drawn across a pristine chalkboard. Instincts pull her hands right towards Reiner, covering his ears to the very best of her abilities as she winces and bears a grin through the performance. There's almost no way to hear her partner's question, but guessing the gist of it is easy enough.[break][break]

How should they handle this nuisance?[break][break]

Why doesn't the simulation possess some menu for audio settings? She can barely hear her own thoughts over all this noise. Why did they end up in this scenario of all things?[break][break]

The jungle flashes a bright red, a pastel creature slowly rising to her full height as she flexes and extends her claw. A solemn lover of peace and quiet, Ako doesn't appreciate this wretched singing no matter how much heart and soul is put into it. And she dives right into the overgrowth, ripping through foliage with a scream to rival the Scream Tail's own.

The other's question is cut short by the all-too-familiar-burned-into-her-brain scream, which leaves them with the question of what should they do indeed. Even as it's a simulation, this is just ... a bit too much, isn't it? Nonetheless, before Cass could agree, someone from Eris' team emerged with a vengeance.

Cass swallows, definitely intimidated by the screaming, angry Hatterene as she surges towards the screaming little, pre-historic balloon. Well, that's hopefully leading to a fate where the thing isn't directly eaten ... "ALRIGHT-" Cass shouts, trying to her her own voice over the various screeching that is now. In fact. Also joined by own of her own.

Despite having only been a mild-mannered chatterbox so far, Glimmer also floated forward - before joining the fray with a Mortal Spin, aiming directly for the fluffball as well. "BE QUICK!" Cass shouts, her hand vaguely on her pokéball to recall Glimmer at any moment - after all, one could argue that Glimmoras are bite-sized ...

[attr="class","itemcoltext"]Somehow, you manage to mute the Scream Tail. Silenced, the jungle settles to its usual symphony of Pokemon cries and jurassic winds.[break][break]

Everything seems fine now. No threats nearby. No imminent danger.[break][break]

Suddenly, the world darkens. Trees snap and the earth groans. Should you look up, you see what seems to be pages of a book and a book cover closing in on you.

[attr="class","eris109"]While the Glimmora is graceful, Ako approaches with the feralness of slighted cat. As soon as the Scream Tail is launched right into the air by the Mortal Spin, she reaches out with her claw, grabbing ahold of their leg and swinging them downwards at full force.[break][break]

Then she raises them up to the sky, and slams them down once more. Again and again, much like a rabid fan of whack-a-mole. So much so that at some point, the Scream Tail's screech-singing becomes genuine screeches of agony. And oh, does Eris pale at the very sight.[break][break]

"AKO?!" The screams grow weaker. "LET GO!" The crunching begins to make itself known. "PUT IT DOWN!"[break][break]

And she will, just not in the kindest of ways. With one final scream of her own, the witch swings the limp Scream tail round and round over her head, then pitches it like a terrifying fastball deeper into the simulated jungle.

Good news, Glimmer indeed does not end up being eaten by a prehistoric version of a legendary that is known today. Bad news, the other present prehistoric pokémon is met with violent rage. Like a train accident, it's hard to look away, btu also ... Cass is mildly perplexed.

And with the murder she's had to do in her other simulation attempt, she vehemently reminds herself again that this is just a simulation. "Are you okay?" she asks, concerned about how Eris as Hatterene's trainer might feel after this - even if truly, Hatterene is not known to be a pacifist. "It's just a simulated universe," she adds, hoping this might ease some feelings.

And there's something else going on ... "What's up there?" she asks, puzzled as a shadow is slowly cast over them. It's like ... a book?
