[attr="class","aurelie"]  [attr="class","aurelie_lyrics"]I will show you fear in a handful of dust [attr="class","aurelie_body"]Aurelie let out an explosive sigh of sheer relief when the wild Walking Wake was finally knocked out by their combined efforts, its skin rapidly shriveling and drying from the recently reemerged Garganacl's SALT CURE. As it collapsed into the water with a mighty splash, she too sagged for a moment, feeling weak after the adrenaline drained away. Then, clearing her throat with an attempt at dignity, the redhead forced her hands to unclench from both Mitsuru Kagami's sleeve and the Pokeball that held her fainted Leafeon. She grimaced remorsefully. That earlier FLAMETHROWER had caught her completely off guard, and that was her fault entirely. But she dared not indulge too long in self-pity here. As she shielded her eye from the flashes of light still scintillating from the fallen Pokemon's Stellar Tera crown, Aurelie stared at the island in the middle of the water. "Is that what it was guarding?" Her voice still sounded unsteady even to her own ears. Clearing her throat again, she went on, "It must be something special, considering how overprotective it was acting. We should go check it out!" Looking around first for any other dangers, Aurelie beckoned to the two women and started wading to the cavern's center. Climbing onto the island, she gaped at the strange, skeletal-looking tree at its heart. "Is it...dead? Why is it even down here? Don't trees need sunlight?" Standing near it, the redhead could sense a strange aura emanating off the tree. Her mouth grew dry, and her heart beat faster as the fear reared its ugly head again. Maybe this tree was also part of why the civilian lady and I were running around like Torchics with our heads cut off? she wondered. And not just the Walking Wake scaring us out of our wits? With that in mind, Aurelie exercised presudence for once and didn't touch the tree. If her years of video and tabletop games had taught her anything, it was Never pick up a duck in a dungeon. Instead, she scanned the rest of the cave and gasped when she spotted an opening she must have missed earlier. "Hey! Look! Our way out!" she exclaimed, pointing at the gap. Summoning forth her Magneton, she waded toward that new opening, excited to be able to find their way out of this trap of tera crystals and cave tunnels. "Let's get out of here! I'd really like to be able to get back to the surface again!" Both Aurelie's voice and steps echoed faintly off the cave walls, particularly when she clumsily stumbled and slipped when her feet encountered the downward slope of the tunnel. "Wait a minute...this isn't leading back upward! But...there's nowhere else for us to go..." She gulped as her Magneton glided forward, its electric sparks illuminating the jewel-like glimmer of more tera crystals embedded in the stone. Where is this taking us? she thought, a tendril of anxiety and foreboding uncurling inside her. Is this safe? Where will we be actually end up going? [attr="class","aurelie_tag"] Mitsuru Kagami | Leilani Keawe TL;DR: - With the Walking Wake gone, explores the island in the cave - Looks at the tree, thinks it's really weird, but doesn't touch it - Notices the new opening and starts walking through it - Alarmed that it goes down instead of up but doesn't see any other route they can go MP Tally: +50 MP: have your character recall a past thread or event that they have participated in or not +50 MP: have your character make a regrettable decision +50 MP: have your character experience great fear, hatred, envy, or have a grudge worsen. +50 MP: have your character directly or indirectly spotlight another writer's character's strengths. +50 MP: for getting your Pokemon knocked out in your prelude thread. +60 MP: six posts       [attr="class","cred"]VEL OF PIXEL PERFECT [newclass=.aurelie]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#862939;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie img]height:100px;width:100px;padding:15px;border:1px solid #fff;border-radius:100px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_lyrics]text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-size:9px;text-transform:uppercase;color:#eee;letter-spacing:1px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_body]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#222;font-size:14px;line-height:16px;text-align:justify;font-family:calibri;color:#aaa;letter-spacing:.5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag]text-align:center;font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag a]font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred]text-align:center;font-size:8px;color:rgb(132, 132, 132);letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred a]color:rgb(132, 132, 132);font-size:8px;letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass] |

[attr="class","aurelie"] [attr="class","aurelie_lyrics"]I will show you fear in a handful of dust [attr="class","aurelie_body"]Hearing Mitsuru Kagami's surprised shriek behind her, Aurelie glanced back and had to suppress a smile when she saw the Garganacl lift the woman off her feet and onto its shoulders. "Now, that seems like a good way to travel," she called back, feeling grateful for this momentary respite where they could relax and even make jokes. It won't last, of course, she thought dourly. But it's nice not to have to worry about someone or something trying to kill us right now. She herself still walked on her own two feet forward, occasionally shining her flashlight ahead to watch for threats or, hopefully, a tunnel showing daylight. Leilani Keawe followed close behind, while the hardworking Garganacl lumbered forward and guarded their backs. Water sloshed around their ankles, and every now and then, Aurelie reached out to splash her face with it to cool off. For some reason, it was strangely warm here, and only growing warmer the further they went in. Are we walking toward magma or something? she thought worriedly. Eventually, the three of them came upon an area where the tunnel widened into a broad, almost open area. "Holy Arceus, look at that," the redhead involuntarily burst out. She was staring upward and pointing at the ceiling, her expression puzzled and quizzical. From the very center hung a blue stalactite that almost glowed with its own cerulean radiance. As they watched, it seemed to visibly grow and length right before their collective eyes, the sharp tip noticeably extending a few inches. The outside glittered like precious gems with an abundance of tera crystals, and a feeling of immense pressure or heaviness seemed to emanate from it. Does Rocket's leadership know there are so many tera crystals down here? Or are we the first to discover this place? Aurelie wondered. She took a tentative step forward to study the stalactite more closely. But then, the unexpected sound of a piercing snarl stopped her dead in her tracks. With a bone-deep feeling of dread, Aurelie swiveled her head around. Behind all three of them, an Iron Crown had suddenly manifested into being, seemingly coursing with shimmering energy. Its eyes narrowed aggressively as it stared back at them. Aurelie felt like she was watching everything happen in slow motion when it then lowered its head—and charged straight at the closest Pokemon, Mitsuru's Garganacl, with a PSYCHO CUT. [attr="class","aurelie_tag"] Mitsuru Kagami | Leilani Keawe TL;DR: - Walks forward and notices how warm it's getting, wonders if they're walking into magma - Comes to the stalactite and tries to look closer at it - Suddenly, an Iron Crown manifests from the tera crystals and attacks the Garganacl with a Psycho Cut!

[attr="class","aurelie"] [attr="class","aurelie_lyrics"]I will show you fear in a handful of dust [attr="class","aurelie_body"]First, Aurelie stared in shock when not only, but two Paradox Pokemon manifested from seemingly thin air. Then, when they both launched themselves at the Garganacl—which, to be fair, was the biggest and most conspicuous target—she groaned and rubbed her eye tiredly. Neither they nor Mitsuru Kagami could catch a break here, apparently! But the fact they had both teamed up on one Pokemon gave her a moment to consider her options. Her fellow Rocket's Pikachu was already attacking the Iron Crown, so by the time the Garganacl toppled over with a crackling boom, the redhead had dismissed her Magneton and summoned her Empoleon. She'd never used him before in battle, but, well, there had to be a first time for everything. "Napoléon, let's try WAVE CRASH on that Gouging Fire," Aurelie said, more hesitantly than a true battler probably should. It has fire in its name, so surely this should hurt. The bird Pokemon obligingly cloaked himself in surging water and slammed forward into the leonine Gouging Fire, which bellowed at the impact. Her own Pokemon also shuddered, which made her wince. "Keep at it," she sighed, before looking back at Leilani Keawe. I'd like to try EARTHQUAKE, but... She hesitated at the sight of the lively Pikachu zapping the Iron Crown with lightning bolts. It'll hit everyone on the battlefield. That'll be great for both these crazed Paradoxes, but...I don't want to knock out our own, if I don't have to! So, Aurelie waited and watched and wondered if the other Rocket would withdraw her Pikachu soon. Maybe I shouldn't be hesitating. Or even thinking about warning her, she thought, with a sudden thrill of self-doubt. A real Rocket wouldn't worry about their Pokemon, let alone other people's. They'd care more about the goal, or about surviving and winning. But if it were me, I'd want her to warn me if she's about to damage my tools... It wasn't the first time Aurelie had wondered if she really belonged in Rocket. Or the first time someone else questioned it. Yet, it hardly mattered if she did or not—not if she wanted to avoid being cold-bloodedly, immaculately sniped or stabbed by Zev Harcourt in some dark alley someday. The whole cave's already shaking, though, she thought, watching her Empoleon weakening both itself and the Gouging Fire with more watery body slams. It sounds like there's a giant stomping its feet just outside! The doubt was quickly replaced with a tide of terror. Is this the Kyogre already getting closer? Is everything we're doing down here already doomed? [attr="class","aurelie_tag"] Mitsuru Kagami | Leilani Keawe TL;DR: - Summons her Empoleon and fights the Gouging Fire using Wave Crash - Asks Leilani if it's okay to use Earthquake, considering her Pikachu. Maybe she has flyers? - Sees the ground shaking and wonders if it's Kyogre's doing MP Tally: +50 MP: have your character recall a past thread or event that they have participated in or not +50 MP: have your character make a regrettable decision +50 MP: have your character experience great fear, hatred, envy, or have a grudge worsen. +50 MP: have your character directly or indirectly spotlight another writer's character's strengths. +50 MP: for getting your Pokemon knocked out in your prelude thread. +50 MP have your character self-doubt or cast doubt on another's confidence/allegiance. +80 MP: number of posts [attr="class","cred"]VEL OF PIXEL PERFECT [newclass=.aurelie]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#862939;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie img]height:100px;width:100px;padding:15px;border:1px solid #fff;border-radius:100px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_lyrics]text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-size:9px;text-transform:uppercase;color:#eee;letter-spacing:1px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_body]width:420px;padding:40px;background:#222;font-size:14px;line-height:16px;text-align:justify;font-family:calibri;color:#aaa;letter-spacing:.5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag]text-align:center;font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.aurelie_tag a]font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred]text-align:center;font-size:8px;color:rgb(132, 132, 132);letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred a]color:rgb(132, 132, 132);font-size:8px;letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass] |

[attr="class","aurelie"] [attr="class","aurelie_lyrics"]I will show you fear in a handful of dust [attr="class","aurelie_body"]In the tumult of battle, Aurelie hardly understood a word that her fellow Rocket Leilani Keawe was saying to her. Thankfully, though, she did decipher the words "Got any plans?", at least. Seeing only her Pokemon on the field against the two Paradoxes, the redhead nodded vigorously. "I think so," she replied, biting her lip. Though it's a shame her Pikachu fainted instead of getting withdrawn, she reflected pensively. "Just try to keep your balance, I guess!" With no more warning than that, Aurelie called out to her Empoleon, "Napoléon! Use EARTHQUAKE, please!" The battered-looking Empoleon promptly raised his wings, as if he'd been waiting for this command for a while, and called upon the ground itself to strike. Beneath their feet, the earth buckled and heaved violently, splitting apart in places into an ominous spiderweb of widening fissures. The Gouging Fire and Iron Crown howled in pain before fainting away and disappearing like mist before a light breeze, and Aurelie smiled tiredly. But then her smile drained away when she noticed the walls and ceiling of the cave shaking, even after the EARTHQUAKE quieted down. Surely, Napoléon's attack wasn't that strong, was it? she thought, feeling an all-too-familiar surge of fear. It usually calms down faster than this... Yet, the shaking wasn't stopping or even showing signs of calming down, and Aurelie began to worry. "Umm, ladies? Maybe we should retreat back into that tunnel before this all comes down aroun-" Her last words were interrupted by a sudden, deafening bang coming from outside the cave. It was as if a massive thunderclap boomed directly overhead, leaving her reeling and dizzy. Aurelie was barely aware of the cave walls coming apart and collapsing around them, crushing the two Paradox Pokemon. Above them was more stone, still crumbling and cracking apart to reveal further caves, tunnels, and crevices. And then, past all that, there was a startling glimpse of blue sky. A ray of sunlight was even peeking through. What just happened? she thought, feeling something warm and wet dripping out of her ear and down her shoulder. Aurelie glanced woozily to one side and saw it was blood. The bang must have blown out an eardrum, because she was hearing nothing at all from that side now. Are we...safe now? Or in even more trouble than ever? [attr="class","aurelie_tag"] Mitsuru Kagami | Leilani Keawe TL;DR: - Her Empoleon uses Earthquake and injures both Paradox Pokemon - But then the bang happens and the cave walls crumble away to expose the cave MP Tally: +50 MP: have your character recall a past thread or event that they have participated in or not +50 MP: have your character make a regrettable decision +50 MP: have your character experience great fear, hatred, envy, or have a grudge worsen. +50 MP: have your character directly or indirectly spotlight another writer's character's strengths. +50 MP: for getting your Pokemon knocked out in your prelude thread. +50 MP have your character self-doubt or cast doubt on another's confidence/allegiance. +90 MP: number of posts +100 MP: completing your prelude. +300 MP: "losing" or having a "negative" outcome for your character and their prelude.
