Catching up to the gray Espeon, the guild would step inside the Tower of Origins and find it a rather plain, empty space say for a large spiraling staircase that adorned the center of the floor. It was Orion who glanced up first, noting the spiral staircase that would take them further up the tower. However, a fair distance above them, another Elite stood poised and ready to strike them down. The second the Espeon stepped foot on the stairs it raised it's arms into the air and hurled something down at them. A great boulder rolled down the swirling stairs, nearly barreling over plenty of Pokemon. "We'll have to get up there as quickly as we can. Run fast, dodge the rocks he throws down at us and for the love of Arceus, try not to get thrown off. You'll have to climb back up, we can't spare the time to rescue every idiot who falls." He turned to dash up the staircase, oblivious to anyone following. Solaris was quick to take up behind his grandfather, but Tempest paused for a moment. Her blue eyes scanned the layout before her. The enemy at the top throwing things at them, the descent upward to their next destination. "...my god. This...this is beautiful." The Pikachu gave a squeal of joy before bounding after the two Espeon. "Bring it on, Donkey Kong!" "Donkey what?""Just...just climb the stairs, Raith...and wipe your mouth, you....you're covered in...whatever, let's go." Holder of the Rock RelicThis one is a bit...different. Rather than attacking you'll be dodging and advancing forward. Once you reach the top it's game over for Mr. Rhyperior, in which case a single shot from a Water/Grass type attack should suffice. 2 100-sided dice are rolled. Just like last time. The first is how many steps you take forward. The second is your dodge roll. Evens - Enemy's Attack Misses. Odds - Enemy's Attack Hits. (If you are hit you take the damage designated by the enemy dice roll) Now, when I say steps forward I mean each roll you keep track of, you add them all together...and after three rounds if it is an even number: You are free to advance. Otherwise you stay behind and keep rolling until it adds up to an even number. -IF YOU ARE HIT, you are automatically bumped back to a odd number. Roll 98. Get hit the same turn. It is then 97. Roll 99. Get hit same turn. It is then 97, because it goes back to the LAST odd number. Are you ready to rock?

Incultyr stared at the staircase and the rocks raining down on them doubtfully. The smaller guys are going to get crushed. So Incultyr rushed in ahead, moving as fast as his rather significant bulk would allow, with his team following.
"Stay behind me."And thus Incultyr simply tanked the boulders with his face broke the incoming projectiles ad threw them aside, leaving a safe path right behind the rather large Tyrannitar. Well, if it works. Because of how slow Incultyr moved at, and with his team having accepted usng him as a shield, Team Azalea quickly caught up. The Flareon wasn't surprised to see those who were here, though he cast a worried glance at Zero. Last he heard, Zosee wasn't doing well. Atra and Hope helped Incultyr deflect the rocks safely with some Psychic, so that they weren't throwing the projectiles into other teams. Suicune was just makin' her way up dodging and doing her graceful Suicune thing. Cherry does not make good posts on Monday it seems. Steps taken: 85

Team Wonderland was totally there in the last part. Totally. Anywho, they were still with the guild. Emily and Ailleen brains were realing with the information flooding through. Lily was off somewhere... Being catatonic.
When they heard the gray Espeon and the Pikachu talking, they knew that this was serious. More serious than they had been expecting. "Ok.. So, somehow, we have to get to the top of this? No pun intended..." Emily stifled a snort and went over to Lily. "We have to wait here for now, ok? Despite the many times Emily had tried to coax Lily into speaking, she had failed. Emily had honestly given up with trying to get Lily to talk. The Rattata guided the dragon-type over to the crowd, and the trio started observing.
I wonder how Beatrice is.... I hope she's ok. Ailleen couldn't help but regret not saying a proper goodbye. If they never came back, then Beatrice would be crushed. Ailleen wished that she could go back, but she pressed forward, determined to survive. "Holy Arceus! Emily watch out!" A boulder was barreling towards the trio, and they side-stepped just in time. As Ailleen around at the crowd. she recognized several of the teams from the guild. Oh, there was Team MistMelody. Beatrice knew them farely well.
Emily had her hands full, guarding Lily. The dragon could be a bother if she didn't have any orders. She would just stay there if nobody had commanded her. When the boulder came hurtling down the steps, Emily had to yank Lily out of the way. "Ok Lily, if you see a big ball come down the mountain, you have to move, Ok?" Upon receiving no response from the Dratini, Emily sighed. It was like talking to a boulder. A boulder that was rose and butter colored. Wouldn't that be ironic if the rose and butter colored boulder came hurtling down the mountain right then and there? Lily would probably embrace it as if it were her mother. Although considering the amount of food Lily consumed, Emily wouldn't be suprised.

     Era & Ethfael & Erinn & Riley & Celus & Avaria & Eon & Irilyss37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50 ~ 37/50
Era-after seeing to all of her companions one by one-looked back to spot the Tribe members just as Thunderecho extended his greeting. She recognized the Jolteon and his entourage from a few separate meetings with them, some with the rest of the Guild and others individually. Beckoning for the others to follow her, she led her Team in toward the Eeveelution cluster, a half-smile on her face as she spotted Silvertail among their number. Even as the Espeon greeted them the winged Pikachu nodded and returned the greeting softly, "Hello Silver." She was dually comforted and dismayed by his presence. If he was killed she'd be devastated, but to know that he and the rest of the Tribe-all of whom were incredibly powerful-were there alongside them was very soothing to her frayed nerves. As the Leafeon and the Flareon of the group doled out their elixirs, Era accepted the three for her group with a murmured thank you before passing them on to Ethfael to look after. The Dragonair placed the precious bottles carefully within their bag, which was slung about his neck, and closed it securely: they would be safe for when they were needed. They all accepted Silvertail's Morning Sun with gratitude, the much-needed healing warmth easing their pains though it didn't eliminate them entirely. Still it was energizing to receive the healing of the sun upon their backs. It seeped through their skin and into their bones with a warmth so fulfilling it was heavenly. Feeling refreshed and revitalized, despite still being riddled with half-healed injuries and half drenched in blood, the Team progressed into the Tower of Origins.
There was scarcely a moment to take in their surroundings: old, worn bricks creating sturdy walls that curved about the area, and a spiral staircase that hugged its sides tightly. The thing that was most evident upon their arrival was the massive Rhyperior at the top of the steps and the boulder that he had proceeded to roll down the stairs at the entirety of the Guilds. "Get back!" Avaria snapped, her voice so strong and commanding that the group had little protest in listening. It was fortunate that they had listened so nicely too: if they hadn't stepped back they would have been hit by a rock that they hadn't noticed which had been rolled down already. As they leaped back, Avaria set a Leaf Storm upon the stone, slicing it to pieces so that it wouldn't harm the others around them. "Come on!" the Shaymin said, leading the group onward and taking charge. "Up the stairs everyone, there's no time to waste with playing games."
Recovering from the scare, the group hustled to keep up with Avaria, Celus being the only one who paused as Irilyss didn't rush along with the others. "Are you alright?" he asked her quietly, his expression concerned as he looked at her burned leg.
Irilyss gritted her teeth and didn't respond at first. This was growing to be more troublesome by the moment. She found herself in the unique position that she wasn't dead but rather was being forced to live through torturous pain, not something that she'd anticipated. She couldn't slow the others up but there was no way to proceed up these stairs otherwise. Unless... Her thoughts trailed back to Anues unbidden, providing her with an answer for her conundrum, though not one that she particularly desired using. He always hovered about in preference to walking, she'd noticed that quirk from the beginning, and judging from the circumstances it seemed she'd have no choice but to partake in the same thing. Still it was with the utmost disdain that she shifted her weight to the air, drawing on her Psychic; not only did she feel pretentious, but it was also a somewhat foreboding task because she needed to lessen her usual abilities in order to draw off of this. "It'll be fine," she said to Celus, unclenching her jaw with some effort. "Let's catch up to the others."
It didn't take them long to catch up, nor did it take them long to realize they'd arrived at the wrong moment. Almost the moment they reached the position of the others a rock was shattered to pieces by another Leaf Storm from Avaria. The attack was meant in good intentions but the pieces broke up and shattered over them since they continued moving, causing the entire group a good deal of cuts and bruises from the remains that hit them. They couldn't let it deter them though, every one of them knew that and so they continued up the stairs as quickly as they could, hurrying after the rest of the group.

Victor - Harumi - Aiden - Doku - Maxi
37/50 - 37/50 - 37/50 - 37/50 - 37/50
It was rather needless to say that being blown up as not a wonderful ordeal for anyone. Doku and Aiden had both taken quite a blast, as well as Harumi and her two bodyguards. All five Pokemon groaned as the simultaneously got up onto their feet. They began to speak as they tried to clean the blood and chunks off of them.
"This is bringing back unpleasant memories..."
"Woah... Did Skye do that?"
"Well this isn't a very attractive look..."
"Somehow this is your fault, Umbreon!"
"Hmm... any chunks big enough for a stew...?"
After having their minor bitchfest, the Pokemon turned their heads to look upon the group of Eeveelutions who had come to their aid. "... Are these somebody's in-laws?" Aiden muttered, glancing over to Solaris. Who had this Espeon gotten himself mixed up with? Harumi, however, was a little more clever than that. The Eevee stared at the delicate markings on all of the Pokemon, tilting her head to the side a bit as she studied them. She then lifted her own paw, looking down upon the markings on her arm. They were quite similar the ones on these Pokemon. "... Mom's family?" She guessed, tilting her head to the other side. The Eevee couldn't exactly be sure if these were her relatives, but anything was possible.
However, it was time to trek on, There was no time to stop and try to delve into family matters. Besides, if they didn't win this, Harumi wouldn't even have any family left. The Pokemon began to enter the tower, hoping things would go a little better than they just had. They soon found themselves running up a spiral staircase, dodging large boulders as they did so. "Maxi, find us a big hammer, Arceus flapjacks dammit!" Aiden called as he was knocked down a bit by a larger boulder. Harumi tried her best to stay close to her sister. "Skye, we need to talk!" The running Eevee yelled before a small boulder clonked her right in the head, sending her back a few steps.

  Skye & Zori-50/50- -Invincibility Stone-The appearance of the Tribe was startling for Skye, needless to say. She'd lost track of her mother in the chaos that followed, streams of Pokemon following the tribe members, and the odd gray Espeon that led the way for all. He seemed more than a little testy, but she wasn't really sure if it mattered, at this point. Her family was around somewhere, if she could find them. She tried in vain to twist, pressing back against the crowd, but after a few of the others nearly tripped over her short frame, she decided it was best to keep moving. They'd find her, or she'd find them. Either way, there was little to be done about it.
The lithe little Eevee could feel the earth shudder beneath her paws, tripping her up as she'd done to those caught behind her. She froze, though this time the Pokemon behind her seemed to find their footing. They skipped over her without thought or pause, heading straight in through the doors, and leaving the violet-furred Eevee to crouch just outside the doorframe. She wasn't sure if she wanted to go in there, or if it was even safe to do so. With the ground trembling as though it were being torn in two, and the earth-shattering roar of breaking rock, she could hear nothing of the world around her. Her own heartbeat seemed drowned out by the din of battle, and whatever horrors lay inside.
She heard several Pokemon cry out, the panic washing over their group once more. A flash of gold and black caught her eye, and she gave chase, following the figure through the door. Her voice was yet too quiet to reach over the crowd, but it mattered not. As she was met with the full sight of the male Umbreon, he was quite obviously not the Leafeon she'd been looking for. He seemed not to pay her any mind, caught up in the chaos around him as he pressed onward, tribal markings running down his face and sides. An odd ornament hung from his long ear, a crescent moon that shone in the sunlight from behind them. He seemed familiar, but there was nothing more of interest to the younger Eeveelution, Skye busying herself with avoiding the great chunks of rock that scattered across the floor.
There was a massive stairway ahead of her, nearly as wide as the building itself. It was a staircase so grand that it put the great hall of the Sun Guild to shame. Chunks of rock were torn from its very structure, reducing it partially to ruin. It wasn't just the stairs itself that drew concern, however. The massive Rhyperior at the top was by far more menacing than any problems that the structure might bring them.
Boulders of various sizes flew down the stairs, forcing Skye to retreat nearly to the door, in order to simply remain alive. There was little room left to manouver, the tiny Eevee almost barricaded in by the rocks that piled into the ones before her. The pile shuddered at the impact, over and over again. She'd be safe for the moment, but how long her safety would last... that was unknown. She'd have to keep going, regardless of it.
She heard a voice nearby, so familiar to her ears that it drew her attention in a fraction of a second. Without a moment's pause, she'd launched herself over the nearest boulder, narrowly missing a strike to her own form as she ran to Harumi's side. The larger, but younger Eevee was physically much stronger than she, but somehow Skye remained more agile. It was likely due to the way that their bodies were built, and the minute differences between them. "Haru! Over here!" she called back, joining her sister. She was glad that she'd at least found one member of the family.
- - - - -
Zori paused, waiting for her family as the sunlight intensified above her head. It felt good, to have that embracing warmth in the air, though it cast some gruesome shadows on the remains of the erupted corpse behind them... and around them... and on them. Her stomach twisted at the thought, and she quickly caught herself, biting back the gag reflex that was already beginning to kick in. There was far too much carnage here to desire to linger.
She frowned, squeezing past another team as she looked for her mate and youngest daughter. She assumed Skye to be behind her, though she didn't pause to check. She found the latter first, Harumi having been shielded from a fair amount of the blast by the two older males that accompanied her. Without even pausing to think, she knew that Harumi would either be thanking or scolding them. There was little gray area, when it came to the younger Eevee, and the reminder of her child's endearing quirks was enough to make the stench of burning flesh and fresh blood somewhat bearable.
She pressed her muzzle against Maxi's leg, alerting the Toxicroak to her presence as she slipped past to check on her daughter. The sight of her family all covered in blood made her want to wrench the pendant from around her neck, and toss it about theirs instead. She knew that she couldn't. If something happened to them, her world would die. But she couldn't let it get in the way of what must be done. She had to try and reach the top of the tower, just as everyone ese did. "The Tribe of Everlasting Balance; my people," was the only reply that the questioning stares would receive, the feminine Leafeon touching noses with Doku. The tension seemed to leave his body in a moment as she rasped her tongue gently over his muzzle, reassuring herself that he was alright.
Harumi darted past, already heading after Skye, who Zori now realized to be long gone from their gathered group. They made quick progress in following the Eevee, chasing after her and slipping inside the great tower itself. The staircase was huge, but the size of the boulders that flew down its slopes were fairly-sized in their own right. Zori bounded out of the way, her paws skidding on the dust-covered floor and she fell face-first into the ground. There was a muted, muffled cry, but she was quickly on her feet again, and jumping over rocks to try and reach the top.

   Tolin & Charles & Serrin40/50 _ 40/50 _ 40/50
The sense of surprise didn't seem to fade as they advanced into the tower. It wasn't that Archer had grown, or any such thing; that was fine. To begin with, he was a Mewtwo so that was essentially necessary. Even the "original" (if you could call it that) had been grown as a clone of the original Mew, so it went without saying that Archer had started as a child. No, the surprise was that Raith had raised him and that he had turned out the way he had. Raith wasn't exactly someone who struck Tolin as a good parent, yet all the same Archer turned into a fairly solitary individual. It was almost mind-boggling that, to be frank, an idiot like Raith had taken on and raised someone like Archer. It... just didn't seem possible no matter how either of them thought about it.
Whatever. Help had arrived and it was important that they continue, so Tolin pushed the thoughts out of his mind as the next Elite confronted them. Boulders came rolling down and splintered on impact. Shards flew and rocks rolled (guffaw) down the stairs and in spite of the trio's best efforts to avoid them, they were all hurt in one way or another as they slowly made their way up the stairs. For Charles and Tolin, avoiding the rocks entirely would have been at trivial enough effort if they pushed themselves, but the former didn't seem to particularly mind as he drifted up ahead and the latter didn't have the energy to waste. He needed to stay ready for when the actual fighting began and that meant risking a bit of pain.

Isanna quietly padded back up to the members of her team, each step she took was small and stiff. "I don't imagine one of you would happen to have a water attack...? Or anything of the sort, perhaps to help me wash all of this off?" A few of her teammates looked awkwardly at each other, but said nothing. "Oh, alright. I suppose I'll just have to deal with this then." The white poochyena sat down, sniffing at her pelt in disgust and attempting to try to wash the blood off herself, but only ending up drawing back in revolt. This was terrible. The others had scales or hardened fur that allowed them to make decent of themselves, not her. She was stuck like this.
"Let's get a move on." Andrew said and headed on over with the rest of the guild to be healed by their mysterious allies. It was refreshing, to say the least, and they felt as strong as when they had arrived before. The tonics were taken with extreme gratitude.
Rani and Jordan had first scoffed at the twisted staircase; Oh, so all they had to do would be get past a few little pebbles and punch out the guy at the top? "This'll be too easy." she bragged to no one in particular. Arden, on the other hand, didn't seem to share their confidence. While the idea of it was certainly not all that complex, it seemed to be a very long way to go, and this was still an elite that they were dealing with. Like the grey espeon had said, they could hardly handle the pokemon watching the entrance, how could they dare underestimate someone with the same amount of power?
He also hated to admit it, but he was afraid. Rock-based attacks were one of his weaknesses, and he wasn't sure he could even reach the last stair; not with so many pokemon. He'd be to slow to move on foot and too big to move his way up the stairs. (If there is a large, plain empty space around the staircase, couldn't he just avoid a few rocks and fly up the side? D8 lolno? ) The tropius sighed. He'd have to try.
Brashly, the team charged up the stairs together. They had gone quite some distance, around a few other teams in fact, before they were met by a sudden wave of falling earth; throwing them backwards a bit. Little Thomas had to hide behind his Pupitar leader to avoid major damage. Arden, trying Valkyrie logic, tried to fly up the side to avoid being hit, and ended up thrashed in the side of a head by an especially large rock. It might have been just for him, or just a boulder who couldn't stay on the stairs; Either way, Arden went back and hovered above his team, a headache coming on.Step Count;; 49

  Ver -- Rufus47/50 - 47/50With the Tribe's arrival, it was Rufus who'd taken account of them. Not that he saw Ver losing them, but he was busy with another while he instead kept to himself. He preferred it that way. Still, he couldn't help but stare at the visitors. They looked strange. It was common to see an arrange of colors when it came to the Pokemon, but theirs were unique. A quiet breath escaped the Chu before simply turning and running off toward the tower.
Stepping into the tower, Ver gave a single glance back at Ivy before padding safe distance behind the old grey Espeon in order to get a glance at the stairs towering above them. His ears gave a slight flicker at his words while his lone eye met the Elite for a split second before trailing the rock and hopping aside out of the way. Once Solaris went dashing after Orion, Ver took the time to look back at Ivy, "First one to the top wins?" The Flareon smirked before looking forward and taking off up the stairway.  Epitaph -- Fang47/50 -- - 47/50Fang had paused in the tower, watching Epitaph dash on after Solaris without a word while she stood idly by her Chu companion and Orion spoke on to them though she really hadn't been listening at all. 'don't get hit', well duh. Her expression hardened into a frown as Tempest's excitement touched her ears though otherwise unresponsive for the following few seconds before lightly spanking the other Chu in gesture to move forward with the side of her tail. She herself dropped to all fours and dashed onward promptly after with little concern. The sooner this was over with, the better. She didn't have enough energy to drag this stupid end of the world bullshit on forever. Climbing the stairs, her eyes met the Elite long before them with a hard glare. How many of these were they going to fight? Was this even a fight? She swore the moment she got up there, she was punching this thing back down.(( Steps taken: 71 ---Tonics: 3))

♠ Aloura ♥ Lavicus ♣ Crimson ♦
♠ 40/50 ♥ 40/50 ♣ 40/50 ♦ { Paces: 87} {Tonics: 3x} In the brief moment that team Snow Hushed had reunited, they had been oblivious to the going ons around them. Consequently, they had missed the gray espeon and their guild master dashing into the commanding tower that dominated the landscape. It not until silence fell among them did they notice that the rag tag collection of guild members were similarly heading off towards the imposing structure. Presumably, they quickly realized, the site of their next fight. Likely where they would be made to battle against foes as bad or worse then the one that had recently imploded on itself, if the alarm was anything to judge by. What had they gotten themselves into? They were still incredibly clueless on the matter, leaving them left with only one thing to do; Press on, and find out.
As if sharing the same thoughts, they shared the same experession as well- a collective, grimly determined, forced smile that is not actually a smile at all. When the only certainty in your emminent future is that which sane people spend their lives avoiding, it's not small task to press on. Yet, the group of three turned as if on an unspoken command and joined the stream of pokemon.
When they entered the tower, it was resoundingly empty. It wasn't as if they had expected the enemy lair to be decorated in guilt and tapestry, but the void left by lack of outstanding features felt decidedly odd. It also served to put the only distinguishing feature of the building under magnifying glass focus- the spiral stair case. The force of the exaggeratedly important focal point caused Crimson to wince in physical pain from mental remembrance: A spiral stair case had been the catalyst of her lovers death and her own ostracization. The event, yet an open wound and morbidly infected, reeled mercilessly through her mind in a crystal clear cruelty reminding her why she had nothing left to loose. It brought back to life, too, the sparks of pure hatred she felt for the two pokemon whom she was with. Flares that had laid dormant as embers stoked in a film of snowy gray ash. "Murderers." she spat under her breath loud enough for the absol and seviper to hear. Apparently, she was heedless of the fact that they were in the largest fight of their lives, compulsive as she was.
Hearing this, it was Aloura's turn to flinch. She had agonized in frequent guilt over the incident, hoping all the while to gain forgiveness. That hope had now been thrown blatantly back in her face, and it stung. Before she had time to speak, however, or even think of words to say, a huge bolder came crashing down the offensive corkscrew structure effectively distracting her. Glancing up in shock, her blue eyes caught a glimpse of a huge pokemon, presumably the one hurling rocks, standing guard at the top of the steps. Already guild members were racing up the stairs to meet it, dodging rocks as best the could, and moments latter, Crimson joined them. With an air of hardly controlled disgust and anger quivering in her very wing tips, she sped forward with reckless abandon.
The rudder of her tail fractured and untended, the flygon was soon forced to slow her pace- the falling rocks she was unable to doge were pelting her hard in insult to former injury in blows that stung through even her barrier of anger- but she had regardless long outstripped her two team mates. They followed with the greater majority of earth bound pokemon, striding forward as swiftly as any but dodging not quite as well. Aloura particularly, who was troubled by the flygons comment despite efforts to push it aside, was feeling the force of the stones. Only Lavicus's swift actions at his own expense had kept her from falling once already. "Focus!" he told her sharply, a bite in his tone as he curved his long body around her. He thus took a hit from a smaller rolling stone all to save his absentee partner a sickening fall. He only barked the one word before carrying on. He was not in the mood to lecture her about how the accident hadnt been their fault and even had he been this wasn't exactly the place to do so. There was still a long way to go to the top and they couldn't afford to be lolling in the past, damn the flygon for bringing it up. It had not been through Aloura and his actions that Cyan had died, however firmly Crimson seemed to believe that, and if it hadn't been for team Snow Hushed the red and black dragon type would more than likely have been hunted down by her clan and killed. She thanked them for this by putting all three of their lives in danger in likely the biggest fight of their lives. Lovely. Just lovely. They were such a functional team.

Isis + Heimdall + Lilith + Anubis 23/50 + 23/50 + 23/50 + 23/50 Isis frowned as she and the rest of Team Olympus ( as well as the rest of the guild ) finally caught up to that grey Espeon.
She didn't know who he was...but he was obviously important.
Isis then glanced around, everything seemed calm...nothing too out of the ordinary.
There was just a single spiral staircase, that Isis assumed they had to go up.
What if it was a trap or something?
Anubis stepped back in surprise at the sudden rain of boulders, "What the hell..."
Lilith then gasped, "There's someone at the top of the staircase!"
Isis glared, it figured...things were too peaceful sounding after all.
Now they had to run up a staircase while boulders fell down?
What were they?
Video game characters?
Pausing for a moment, she shook her head, "Such utter ridiculousness."
Isis then growled as she turned to Team Olympus, "Ok everyone. Let's get up that staircase! Don't trip!"
The three other team mates nodded as the quartet began to dash up the stairs, attempting to dodge rocks along the way.
A the boulder fell down the staircase Isis winced as she got grazed by a couple of rocks.
Lilith was nearly turned to paste underneath a different rock.
Anubis had slammed into a boulder, but kicked it making it fall to pieces.
Heimdall just got grazed by a couple of boulders but carried on.
Isis nodded, they just needed to get up.
If all else failed...
There were still those three tonics.
Right? (( Pfft. Figures I get hit again.
x3 Tonics left. ))

 Finian found himself racing up a lengthy spiral staircase; the structure of it spread out well enough that he had very few by his side and enough room to sprint freely. A new found confidence and readiness to face any challenge that was to come coursed through him as he moved; he felt a pulsating heat, even through the walls as a combination of Sunny Day and Morning Sun attacks brought with them a sudden change in the air from a brisk chill to a warming, empowering force. He hadn't stuck around for the healing process that was well needed by some, but he graciously accepted, and now found tied to his body by the ribbons that adorned him, three elixir filled vials. Only three were to be distributed to each team, and seeing as he was the only representative of his, he ended up with the whole lot. He felt a bit awkward in the company of some other, larger groups who only had three to split amongst them, but he took his share nonetheless, not questioning the authority of those rationing the items.
In this moment, after a few strides on the stairs, he took his first glance up at the enemy at hand. The menacing figure, from his perspective below, looked all the more troublesome, as if at any moment the giant Rock type could just throw his body weight down at the guild collected at the bottom and crush half of them to death. The Absol cringed at the thought and continued onward. Letting his mind wander in such ways however proved to not be the best decision on his part; as soon as his attention was back on the stairway before him, it was determined that he had little to no time to react to the roughly spherical boulder tumbling down at him. With the angle it was coming at, and sheer size taking up any means of escape without risking a fall, Finian could only take his best shot at avoiding as much contact as possible. He knew he was going to get hit by this, but at the very least he could try to lessen the blow and not take the rolling boulder head on. It was a shock such a large hunk of rock even found itself supported by the staircase and didn't just fall through under it's tumbling weight. The Absol leaped at the split second before it appeared contact was to be made. Rather than bounding directly upwards, he used all of his still running momentum to throw himself at the nearest wall, compressing and extending his four legs simultaneously to violently propel himself out of harm's way. The effort was good at best, but simply not enough, the airborne Absol having caught the edge of the rolling rock which threw him to the ground in a grotesque manner which was anything but an impressive dismount. His body cracked and ached against the unforgiving corners of the staircase of The Tower of Origins. Thankfully he was out of the way of that boulder though, it having long since rolled past and continued on its merry way only proving to pick up more momentum. He groaned and staggered back to his feet; his disposition becoming ever more discouraged as he peered at the path ahead of him and only found himself faced with many more obstacles ahead just like the one he had just hurdled.

HP:40/50

 --  Hiro --- Electra37/50 --- 37/50Steps:90
Tonics:3/3Hiro and Electra quickly ran up the stairs, wary of the Ryperior. Fighting type moves worked too against Rock types as well, right? Hiro felt like throwing up from the exhaustion already coming upon him, but he held it back. He had his family to think about. Mom, dad, and his brother. They had left town and begged him to come. But he had stayed to help. To stop that Eridanus guy from messing up their planet. And that he would do. A boulder came chasing towards the boy and the girl. Electra quickly yelled "Jump on my back!" Hiro did so, holding onto her tightly. Jumping upwards, she evaded it with ease. Rolling off her back Hiro continued to dash up the stairs like a boss.Electra didn't really have anyone waiting for her at home. She was the kind of person who went along for the ride. Not really having a goal in life. He made little hops a she continued to scale the stairway, beside the Machop she was helping.
