[attr="class","spiral"]It's not often Evangeline's heart starts racing on its own. No excitement, no adoration, no danger moves her easily. It is then a sensation that she can't help but crave. A feeling she's always dying to experience; a break from the apathetic monotony that bleeds one day into the next. And she felt it not long ago, when she looked at the featureless visage of Nihilego on the open sea.

It had filled her with a dread she'd never known and it had taken hours for her heart to stop pounding in her ears. It was exhilarating. She wants to face it again, and that want draws her to the beaches. Ignoring evacuation orders, ignoring the screaming civilians, ignoring the rangers that litter the sand like discarded dolls. And it's paid off. Even as she plans her next move, sheltered from death by only a bit of stone, she can feel her heart painfully beating against her ribs. She wants more.

The invasion of the shore is only a small part of the grander attack, and despite the chaos she imagines it's the least eventful as well. She needs to get into the water, into the sea. To that end she drops three Pokeballs, and keeps hold of one other. Her Weezing, Toxicroak, and Scolipede appear in separate flashes of white light.

"Scolipede, here, all of you Protect!" she shouts over the artillery fire of the enemy as she climbs onto her approaching Scolipede, "Move!" she points and they follow. Scolipede lowers her head, Weezing inhales, and Toxicroak throws up her arms -- the air around them shimmers. PROTECT covers them from all sides and they rush.

From atop Scolipede Evangeline charges the shoreline, before they're even there she throws her last Pokeball. Tentacruel appears at the edge of the water.

"Stay on me!" she shouts to her team as they near her waiting Pokemon. The moment they're close enough she hops off Scolipede and moves forward onto the Tentacruel's back. Toxicroak follows her, her still lingering PROTECT covering them both like an umbrella. Weezing floats in the air just in front of her. Scolipede is returned.

"Around the rocks, then Surf!" she once again must yell to be heard over the onslaught of attacks. Tentacruel doesn't hesitate, moving down the edge of the rocky cliff above them before finding a path and rushing forward. The moment they're on open water the sea around them bubbles and shifts before -- all at once -- rising into a wave that grows higher and higher by the moment. A SURF that will carry them faster than any manual swimming would have.
