hyper beam / ?? / ?? / ?? / ?? / ??[break]
THE LOOPS:
[break]
desperation stirs action.
Thomas Benoit's scizor dashes for the gray loop after its dramatic mega evolution; its wings beat rapidly, delivering the metal pokemon's
BULLET PUNCHES.[break][break]
after tossing @n0ble's haxorus, a metagross joins in the assault.
Natsuki Ryuunosuke's zorua and sableye assist, clinging on to the loop's perimeter as they strike at its vibrating rim. after
kyle lopez's aerodactyl and its
IRON HEAD, their combined efforts are enough. the loop reverts to a smaller size, slicing the spilling train and preventing the rest of its cars from falling.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
scrambling on to the purple loop's side, haxorus latches on with its talons. the guzzlord's
HYPER BEAM fires from the ring with a deafening scream. unfaltering in its assault, the haxorus hacks at the loop's brim alongside @valyx's mega ampharos and
Emma Wolfe's noivern. they are able to deliver it back to the hoopa despite the
MISTY TERRAIN. unfortunately, the two dragons can not stop the beam in time.[break][break][break][break]
THE HYPER BEAM:
[break]
@altmight consciousness demands his body to feast. his stretching maw clamps on to his cut arm and begins to chew; it's an odd experience. tasting your own flesh. like foot tacos.[break][break][break]
as his brain and palate is transfixed on the hors d'oeuvre of his appendage, he does not realize his sudden transference of position. thanks to
Noelle Lane's chansey, the zombie-hulk can not escape the sheer obliteration of the hoopa's attack. @bryony's charizard and
persephone amavi's decidueye strike from afar and condemn him to death.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
the head ranger,
Laurence Anderson, with his pokemon, attempt to shield themselves from the attack. despite swampert's valiant efforts, the beam surges through everyone in his party. next,
Thomas Benoit hits the floor. hard. his mega scizor peers back and watches in horror as the beam passes through his trainer with numbing nonchalance. the radiant,
Balder Schwartz, summons solgaleo; however, it's too late. in the process, the beam catches up to him and tears through his brawny body. his solgaleo emerges from the blast, charred- but barely clinging on.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
@valyx watches as his gengar attempts to protect him and his mega ampharos. the beam comes forth, phases through the gengar--- but the beam does not stop. it rushes through the mega ampharos'
COTTON GUARD, and renders the man asunder. next,
Emma Wolfe, her araquanid, and her lycanroc brace themselves for the imminent beam. tragedy falls upon them too as her noivern peers back to see its friends become consumed by the attack.[break][break][break]
thanks to the decidueye's overwatch, the owl is able to
barely scoop up
cadis von klaussner and his gallade with its
BRAVE BIRD; however, its wing is caught in the blast... gallade is able to
SKILL SWAP as
persephone amavi's gardevoir launches a potent
MOONBLAST. the gallade will understand immediately, however, that it can not use the ability it has inherited... the ditto attempts to transform, but it simply becomes one hoopa hand and forearm (or one one of the disembodied limbs should you desire it).[break][break][break]
in the mean time,
Lucas Lane is able to snuggle himself with his unown in the trench made by
ANCIENT POWER. perhaps, it was the placebo effect, but the
VICTORY STAR might've been good luck...[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
as @bryony,
Noelle Lane and @n0ble soar overhead with
Bailey Cooper and her recalled pokemon,
FERNANDO SILPH,
Noelle Lane,
cait alfric, and
CHANCELOR MCQUEEN attempt to cast their
PROTECTIVE ABILITIES with their menagerie of pokemon. as the barriers raise against the incoming beam, the trainers behind them will be able to witness calamity. the beam violates several barriers and their respective pokemon, consuming them in blinding light and energy.[break][break][break]
THE TRAIN:
[break]
as the train careens toward her,
AYAME FUJIWARA attempts to lucid dream... sadly, it's
not her dream. quickly, she realizes this and before the first car crushes her skull,
Blake Wright pushes himself and the girl out of the way. in its attempts to help, the noibat sacrifices itself. for a brief moment, tears well up in its eyes before it surrenders to its fate, splattering into a puddle of blood against the train like a letter's wax seal.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
the two fall and land on the stage, the bottle still unopened.
Natsuki Ryuunosuke is able to assist safely, her umbreon and zoroark quickly dashing towards them on the stage, for the beam has passed.[break][break][break]
evan fader launches himself off the floating stones. he hangs on the edge of the platform, but the train slams into the rocks. the cars detach. one car runs over his hands, and disfigures them hideously, breaking fingers into horrid stumps. the pain causes him to let go- and he begins to fall toward the neverending abyss; how can he save himself?![break][break][break]
heroically,
Blaine Jones is able to rescue
illeana reyes from certain death. after he scoops her from the train's path, the two realize that
illeana reyes would have faced the same fate as
Blake Wright's pulped noibat.
Blaine Jones's noctowl hoots, attacking the hoopa with
DREAM EATER as the ninetales successfully
BURNS their nightmarish predator. [break][break][break]
THOSE WHO DIE:
[break]
@altmight,
Thomas Benoit,
Balder Schwartz,
Laurence Anderson,
Emma Wolfe, and @valyx do not die immediately. the pain exists. their veins burn. their brain fights the throbbing pulse of incoming death, causing the limbs to tingle feverishly. as @valyx's gengar watches forlornly, his mega ampharos, severely weakened, but alive, cradles their trainer in its arms as he watches the man fade away into dust.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
Laurence Anderson's ampharos pops out of its ball to witness the death of its trainer too. likewise,
Balder Schwartz's solgaleo stands watch, allowing its avatar to pass...
Emma Wolfe also succumbs to her fate before her noivern. the galvantula scuttles toward its trainer,
Thomas Benoit, and witnesses his solemn demise.[break][break][break][break]
after the beam passes,
Lucas Lane's drampa,
Noelle Lane's blastoise,
CHANCELOR MCQUEEN's machamp,
FERNANDO SILPH's smeargle, and
cait alfric's goodra face similar deaths. their bodies begin to disintegrate as they slump into funeral winds of dust. as
cadis von klaussner' decidueye soars, its struck wing begins to disintegrate into dust, sending the undercover rocket boss into a dramatic plummet toward the ground with his team.[break][break][break]
HOOPA'S RETALIATION:
[break]
kyle lopez's smeargle sketches a
HYPER BEAM, but this next attack seems even more dangerous. with an agitated roar, the flames of
illeana reyes's ninetales burning his body, he summons multiple loops with a stretch of his hands. they disappear in mid-air and suddenly reappear closer to all the surviving trainers and begin to
chase them.[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
one loop demonstrates its intent by moving over a floating stone and closing, bisecting the stone into two. the loops pursue you all, occasionally disappearing and reappearing in overwhelming angles to attempt to cut your bodies in half.[break][break][break]

the loops do not possess any special color. instead, they are a normal gold.

what will you do?

instructions
- the next mod post will be on 11/6 PST.
- those who have died can roleplay their trainers' last words; however, they can also control their surviving pokemon in the next rounds!
- with every post, please include a tl;dr of your character's actions and roll using the dice command.
- attempt to beat the roll against your character; your actions to flee or deter the loops will determine whether it is easier or harder to beat the roll placed against your character.
- you can also attempt to help others being chased, attack the hoopa, open the bottle, save evan, etc.; however, be aware, your choices may make it more difficult to save yourself!
- this is a "death-enabled" event where characters and pokemon may "die"; however, in this event, the character or pokemon simply wake up when "killed".
