Inspecting the sharpness of his knife, he nodded in approval before adding it to the others. His other knives had been sharpened earlier, and now that all his weapons were ready for use, he was prepared for anything, including another excursion into Area Zero. Speaking of which, it was time for him to head out.
[break][break]
Slipping all his knives into hidden places and strapping his swords onto his back, he used Apollo to make his way to the entrance of Area Zero. Reaching his destination didn't take long, and he immediately dismounted from Apollo before looking around and seeing no one else nearby.
[break][break]
Oh well, it seemed that he would have to wait a bit for his partner. Not that he minded; he would take the chance to scout ahead, not as himself, but using a Pokémon.
[break][break]
With that in mind, he sent Fenris, his Mabosstiff, to scout ahead while he resumed waiting for his partner for the mission.[break] Camellia Lemaitre

[attr="class","cam"]Night was falling over their camp. It was the perfect time to strike, in the assassin's eyes. A belt was clipped around her waist, a variety of weapons on display for her perusal. Though she needn't time to do that — each had its place, and Camellia knew them by heart.

She exited her tent, IRON CROWN trailing behind her.

Their mission: to take down an established camp by the Drk Triad. It was an order from above, not her own. A shame, truly, but it wasn't something she'd question if she was duly rewarded.

"Let's move."

When his partner joined him, he glanced at her but didn't say anything. Like him, she didn't seem like the talkative sort. For the most part, it was because he never really knew what to say, especially to those he didn't really know. He knew enough about her, but not enough to get a feel for what kind of person she was overall.
[break][break]
As she mentioned getting a move on, he was about to tell her he was still waiting on Fenris to return when the Mabosstiff in question returned to his side. "Did you find the location of their camp?"
[break][break]
The Mabosstiff seemed to give an affirmative woof at low volume, and he glanced over at his partner. "If we follow Fenris, we'll be taken to their camp."
[break][break]
With that said, he followed after the canine Pokémon, barely pausing to ensure Camellia was following.[break] Camellia Lemaitre

[attr="class","cam"]Though her quiet companion didn't say much, Camellia found herself almost sneering when he decided to take lead with his Pokemon. She felt like there was no need for that.

Though, it seemed the dog had found the Drk Triad's camp with ease. She let him go, this time, following quietly behind.

Iron Crown treaded along, the LED lights serving as its eyes occasionally blinking in the dimming light. They had reached the camp. "So, Ryker..."

Camellia seemed to want to test him. "What's your plan?"

Her reaction to him sending Fenris ahead went unnoticed, or perhaps a better way of looking at it would be that he didn't understand it. He didn't understand annoyance or really any emotion for that matter.
[break][break]
Silence lapsed between them as they followed the Mabosstiff towards the camp. Not wanting to get too close and risk detection before they could come up with what to do, he halted before they reached the gaze. The other's voice caused him to turn to her with an unblinking gaze.
[break][break]
As she inquired about a plan, he momentarily turned his attention back to the camp, taking in everything he could about the layout and the number of people they might have to deal with.
[break][break]
"With them in the tent, I can't tell you how many people we might be dealing with. Our best bet would probably be to bring them out in the open and attack. Alternatively, presuming we're not trying to steal whatever research they've managed to acquire, we could make sure they can't get out of the tent and set it on fire," he said simply, resisting the urge to rub his throat. He still wasn't really used to a lot of talking.
[break][break]
"Of course, any ideas of your own would be appreciated. I'm not the best at planning ahead, more of a doer than a planner. Or better at thinking on my feet than planning ahead."[break] Camellia Lemaitre

[attr="class","cam"]Dragging out pray was a typical plan she knew that most people would think of. But, she didn't expect him to mention burning the tent down. It was true: they weren't looking for information. They were here to eliminate.

It was exhilarating that someone besides herself was willing to destroy so readily.

"Then, we should burn it down. The less survivors, the better. That means there's less of a chance for them to continue setting up bases. And, perhaps, they'll slowly catch the message we're trying to send."

"GET OUT."

"Fire, water, electricity, choose your poison. I'll follow."

Burning it down was good enough for him. As long as they died, he really didn't care how it happened. "It will have to be fire. I don't currently have any Pokémon that know water or electric type moves," he said, deciding not to mention his uncertainty about how they would make water work in their favor.
[break][break]
"Before all that, we need to ensure they won't just be able to run out of the tent," he said as he took out a Pokéball and pushed the button, causing an Ariados to appear. "Arachne, use webbing to seal the entrance of the tent. Make sure to stay hidden. We don't want them tipped off," he told the spider Pokémon.
[break][break]
Having received her orders, the Ariados scurried off. "With the entrance sealed, the only escape would be if they had Pokémon that had teleport, phantom force, or any other moves that enable escape," he said before he started to make his way closer to the tent, making sure to be quiet.
[break][break]
Seeing the return of the Ariados, he took out another Pokéball, this time releasing a Salandit from its contents. "I do have a Charizard as well, but a Salandit will be able to get closer without being noticed. Anyway, she can set the tent on fire."[break] Camellia Lemaitre

[attr="class","cam"]Camellia nodded. "Fire will burn evidence, and smoke will cause inhalation injury. So, let's get started."

She waited for the spider Pokemon to reach the tent, sealing it as quickly and quietly as possible. "Use your SALANDIT. We need to make this as inconspicuous as possible."

Retracting her IRON CROWN, SHUPPET took its place. She blended into the darkness easily, floating over to the tent. The only sound that was heard with a snap of Camellia's fingers.

A WILL-O-WISP lit the bottom of the tent, as well as catching the grass around the tent. Fantoche returned once the flames began to fan.

As she spoke, he nodded in agreement. Fire was always his go-to when it came to killing multiple opponents quickly. Not that he was in a rush at the moment. He just wanted to finish this quickly to avoid being detected.
[break][break]
"That's what I was thinking," he agreed, directing Medusa to help set the tent on fire with the assistance of Camellia's Shuppet. Other than that, he didn't give her any other orders, trusting her to determine the best attack to use on her own.
[break][break]
Moving closer to the tent wasn't difficult for the Salandit, and once she was close enough, she used Ember to ignite the bottom of the tent. She repeated the process a few times until the fire was fully ablaze before returning to her trainer.
[break][break]
Barely acknowledging the return of the two Pokémon, he kept an unwavering gaze on the tent, ready to act if anyone managed to escape using a Pokémon's escape move. He could hear the shouts of alarm from inside the tent, but he had yet to see anyone successfully escape.[break] Camellia Lemaitre
