Team Mission 5: Regi-cide

As the explosion went off Sub's Mandabuzz was sent hurtling through the air, Pallas slamming into a nearby pillar, the impact more than enough to knock her out as she hit the dirt.

Sub on the other hand had disappeared into a shadow on the ground with Griswald and had made his way behind Zera. Unfortunately he wasn't quick enough to stop her. Without a word he and his Spiritomb appeared from the shadowy substance on the ground and quickly he grabbed her head and spun her around so she could see the face of a man pushed over the edge.

Still not speaking the Snagem leader clocked the woman in her purplish face, and if successful without counterattack he 'Spartan kicked' her in the stomach to knock her back. What weird skin she had, it was smooth yet had a few bumps here and there, reminded Sub of a Koffing's texture and color.

Zera crashes to the ground yet again for the second time in so many minutes, her dress splays out as the Pokeball in her hand falls to the ground and rolls away. "N-no....!" she frantically crawls after it, apparently heedless of the danger she currently found herself in before she picks it up triumphantly. Sub's first guess at her hybridization was spot on, if the gas wasn't a big enough giveaway.

I was readying myself, waiting on some sort of counter attack out of the unknown hybrid. Much to my suprise though, I wasn't ready for what she did do. When the Magmar came out, I quickly pulled out a Pokeball of my own, but before being able to throw the ball out to get the Pokemon to stop the Magmar, the gases that she built up ignited and blew me back a bit. "AUGH!" It didn't hurt that much, but dear God did I feel the burn of it. "Urrrgh..." As I was sitting back up, my instincts tripped once again, something was incoming. Rather someone. "...son of a..." Crap, the others couldn't hold down that Dull person. I kind of had that feeling it was inevitable, but I was hoping that it would be a bit longer so we could neutralize that woman. Unfortunately, I spent longer trying to get to her . "Blast it..." I quickly sat up and got at the ready. "I really didn't need that..." I quickly charged up an Ice Beam, means of two hands for the extra kick. Since it was only one way in and out of this way, I was hoping that I would get him running here. "Here goes something..." I said to myself as the area lit up around me with the icy blue glow. I then thrust my hands forward, firing the icy attack down the corridor.

After the blast, Tristen's ears was ringing severely from the attack. He felt burnt, felt profoundly thirsty for that matter. He was already tired from the thunderbolt attack and now he had his world rocked by the blast. "..." The boy sat up for a second, he was told to do all he can to help anyone else. He only had one thing to come to mind. The crests of his sparked, not by no means as strong as his Thunderbolt earlier, but at least something to get one job done. Tristen unleashed a weak electrical pulse towards Zera...a Thunder Wave.

The area fills with the light coming from Blizz and Tristen's attacks as they zoom towards the Koffing hybrid, twin Ice Beam and Thunder Wave coming towards her but... there's a white blur as Dull has caught up to the group, intercepting the projectiles with his own body.

"Dullsie! Yer awright!" Zera cries happily, clapping her hands together for a second. She returns her Magmar before pulling out another odd-colored Pokeball purple and white with an 'M' on it... another Master Ball. "Now's the time to teach these guys a l-..."

"Th-thank you.... You did great out there, Voort. And you saved my hide there at the end, too." She'd pat the Nidorino on the head as she picked up the Master Ball with her free hand. "The lot of you, I'm spoiling when we get back to HQ. You all did work today." She took a deep breath and stood back up again, though her legs were a bit shaky now as the adrenaline began to lose its effect. "Now to get out of this prison."

The prison holding Aile within it vanishes as she finishes the capturing of Regirock, and instantly the place begins shaking violently, the ceiling crumbling in and collapsing around the Snagems and the Ciphers alike.

"Zera!" Dull shouts, obliterating a particularly large piece of rubble with a Shadow Ball before it smashes the Koffing hybrid who was kneeling on the ground with her hands over her head in fright. "What did you do?!" His color fades and even for a hard-to-harm hybrid he looks tired as he reverts to a pale purple color, the effects of his Mega Evolution wearing off.

"I... I...." Zera babbles, one green eye looking up at Dull sheepishly. "I wasn't thinking and Magy likes to blow up my gas so...." The hard-light prison containing Aile was clearly the only thing that had been holding the structure of this place together following Zera's explosion. The jacketed Gengar hybrid scowls menacingly at the Snagems and raises a hand for an attack right before an enormous slab of stone slams into place between the Snagems and Ciphers, separating the two. All around the group, stones buckle and the walls crumble as the ruins are coming down. The bright side to all of this is that the Dark Gem that made teleportation impossible have broken, which was good because they needed to get out now.

Cozmo cleans his glasses on his shirt and re-positions them on his nose as calmly as he dared. "Well, it's been a fun adventure... I was glad to see this place at least once before I died..." he mutters over the crashing of the rocks all around him.

Breathing deeply as he recovered from the sudden confusion that had occurred with Darts' Outrage assault, Reno continued to monitor the situation without any openings for him to add his own five cents. He could only watch and keep his Pokemon still as Dull sank into the floor, leaving Darts punching at the floor. Opening up a flurry of Pokeballs to return his small horde, Reno walked over to where Darts was before applying a cure for insanity via his metallic fist. "Darts, stop. He's gone. And I severely doubt we can pursue him now." Reno stated, sensing a presence running to the pair as he finished speaking. Leslie stood beside Reno, looking at the mildly crazed Darts. "Whats wrong with him?"

Up above the rest of the gang was a pair of people who still might have a hand in helping them get out... if one of them hadn't been crazed at the moment. Darts has dropped to one knee and put his crest to the ground, his back heaving over and over as he tries to get his breathing under control.

You idiot you pushed the limits of Outrage... The jacketed gambler hears from far off. Clearly his thoughts but why was it so muted...? His ears were pounding like a drumbeat, or so he thought until he realized it was his heart beating faster than was humanly possible. Luckily for him, he no longer possessed a human heart or cardiovascular failure would have been in his future, but he still needed to calm down. He smashes his hands on the ground, two enormous divots blasting where he strikes. He does it again, chips of rocks flying up in response.

In the middle of Darts' tantrum, if Reno, Leslie, or Kaya cared to notice, the ruins entrance was beginning to sink into the sand, the braille on the edges of the door cracking and shattering as the thing pulls away from the cave as the support underneath it gives out. Looked like they were one of Snagem's only hopes.  

[Darksol88]

Aden, unfortunately for everyone else, was still unconscious from the earlier blast. There was no way he was escaping on his own, and without help, no way he'd be escaping alive either.

A bit of hope might've come in the form of Amaranth finally managing to get to the cave and where the rest were. She looked weakened, her clothes and feathers in disarray from the hordes upon hordes of Shadow Trapinch in the desert, though by some miracle, she managed to get through.

"I've... made it-"

It would've been even more hopeful had she not been immediately crushed by the walls that had once kept a door in place, and unlike Aden, her unconsciousness wasn't one she would recover from anytime soon.  

[Reno Vantas]

Leslie would barely glance at the slowly collapsing door before opening one of her Pokeballs and pointing at the archway. It wouldn't take long before an Onix parked itself in the way of the collapsing rock in efforts to keep the entrance open. Reno would attempt to add something else by aiming his telepathy towards Darts and attempting to remove some of the pent up aggression coursing through the hybrid's system. People needed to start moving, quick.  

[Requiem of Whyspers]

When Zera's explosion went off, Odd had been blasted backwards in spite of his attempt to phase through the blast. Phasing through an immaterial eruption of pure elements? Not happening. Slammed against the wall, he was left dazed for a moment but when the others started reacting, he was slowly dragged back to consciousness. Just in time to see Amaranth get squashed. Someone needed time to rescue her and he was likely one of the few with any kind of ability to potentially increase that time.

Standing up on slightly shaky legs, the channeler released his Shedinja, glaring at the two hybrids on the other side of that rock. He could still see their spirits resting there, weakened somewhat but not even close to being snuffed out. "Cadenza, I need fuel for this." He told his partner, removing his Spirit Chain artifact and weaving it into his hands, where a small pinprick of black light would begin to form shortly afterwards, the rosary's proximity to the point of focus enhancing the energy collected there. "GO!" He would scream to his allies as he quickly removed the Spirit Chain from his hands, pushing the collected energy toward the ceiling, a Black Wall erupting just beneath it in a massive sheet, the channeler pouring his chi into it continually in order to maintain it. Nothing could move that wall so long as he maintained it. Or so he had convinced himself to believe. He may be proven completely wrong here but he had to try.

Back at the entrance, seeing Darts' state, Kaya knew that something had to be done. "Let me handle this." He told Reno, walking over to the hybrid. He'd grab the Dragon by the front of his shirt and pick him up, "HIT ME!" He'd yell into the man's face. "Give me every ounce of that Dragon power you've got left in you!" He'd challenge the hybrid, surreptitiously hitting him in the stomach with a Fairy Lock, intending to place his chi on temporary lockdown. Any excess could still be discharged into him and while the punches might hurt he would be able to practically brush off the draconian chi as if it weren't even there. That was the plan at least. Get Darts' energy back under control immediately so that he could be safely transported out. They didn't have time to be wrestling with him.

Darts attempts to oblige Kaya's request, lunging at him with a sharp rush of golden fists, but the Fairy Lock hits him and he suddenly found himself a bit... drowsy, even as his punches slap the hybrid in front of him ineffectually, his arms drooping as the draconic energy leeches out of his body, before slouching to the ground in a heap, his breathing labored as his chest heaves seeking oxygen.  

[Requiem of Whyspers]

Kaya had to let out a sigh of relief once Darts energy was back under control. "Let's get out of here." He did rub his chest as they were leaving, though. While Giratina wasn't a Steel-type, it did have bits of organic metal(gold he had always assumed) growing in places on it's body and Darts seemed to have them as well. While it might not hurt much it was still enough to feel it when the hit.

Kneeling in front of the Giratina hybrid, he would, with or without Reno's help, haul him onto his back, recall his Leavanny from where she was still hiding and run towards the door first and foremost. "Thank you." He'd tell Leslie's Onix as he passed, trying to find the safest place to wait for the others, unless they had already left.

Deep inside the ruins, Odd would continue attempting to hold the collapsing ruins up for as long as he could while the others escaped.
