Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Jasper appeared in front of her, Era's eyes filled with terror as she looked up at the massive Raichu looming over her. Then he struck her on the center of the forehead and vanished. Confusion registered in Era's eyes, and then a change came over her expression. Ethfael watched the change come over Era's expression and felt a thrill of nervousness. "Era?" he said tentatively.
The Pichu looked at him, but she had a strange look on her face, like she was in pain although she had no visible sign of injury. "Era?" he asked again, "What did he do to you?" The expression in Era's eyes wavered to confusion for a moment and then they focused on Ethfael with an expression of anger mixed with madness. Then she charged, sparks flying towards Ethfael.
Bewildered and hurt by her betrayal, Ethfael turned and fled the opposite direction, not wanting to hurt his friend as he heard her hot on his tail. Era's eyes glittered with malice as she sent electric sparks flying this way and that towards Ethfael. A few hit their target causing him to flinch, but Ethfael knew better than to stop moving. His path led him to Jasper and he used Extremespeed, ramming him hard enough to get the Raichu off balance. Era blindly ran forward charging into Jasper and promptly falling over due to the sheer size of the Raichu. She got up immediately after and circled around him to start chasing Ethfael again, not subdued at all.
They continued this chase around and around until Ethfael began to grow dizzy from so many circles. Era, kept going by some strength which the insanity put in her ran ever faster until she was practically on top of him. Going on a spur of the moment idea he stopped where he was. Era kept going and tripped over him falling flat on her face. Wincing Ethfael whispered, "Sorry Era," before getting a head start in the opposite direction. The Pichu was down for only an instant before getting up again and resuming the chase.

As Jasper appeared to strike Verity on the forehead, she felt a sudden, extreme anger fill her, and she fought her paralysis until it broke its hold on her muscles. Then she stood and glanced about. A haze filled her vision, and shadowy figures stood at the edges. Their very presence angered her somehow, and she growled before attacking. "Whoa!" gasped Yuki, jumping aside as Verity came rushing past in a Quick Attack. Verity growled in frustration at the shadow as it moved aside. She snarled at the shape then attacked once again. Yuki dodged again and then trapped Verity in a Protect. "What is your problem!?" she exclaimed before seeing Verity's eyes. They were unfocused, as if she was looking at something different from the real. "What..?" she began before Verity slammed herself angrily against the Protect. Great. Just great. Now Verity had gone insane and Jasper was still on the loose. And now fire began raining from the sky. Fire. Why was it always fire? She got burned right on her arm, and Sara's head got some scorching. It was painful. It kept twinging right as she tried to attack. Finally she managed to unleash a Icy Wind, and Sara moved in close enough to Jasper to peck him, unaware that the attack would not do much damage. Verity continued to throw herself against the Protect shield, protected from the raining fire and completely oblivious to it. Those shadows... they were so annoying! Now one had trapped her inside a bubble of some kind. And where had Yuki and Sara gone, anyways?

[-2 Wrath, and Verity is now insane. Thank you so much. > - <]

Noelle & Odyssey & Dash

A Raichu with a cape now had the attention of the whole field of fighting Pokemon, and did something to make certain Pokemon go crazy. Luckily the team had been far enough to not be noticed by any of the 'possessed' Pokemon, and nobody had gotten attacked either, by anything. They shouldn't think about it though.

Odyssey, taking a quick look at the new enemy, came close and started jabbing him with quick, powerful palms. After a little bit of an attack, he pounced back on his hind legs, and dodged the attack of Noelle, who was firing an Aurora Beam towards the Raichu.

Dash however, refused to fight, and stared in awe at the Raichu. "That's what I'm going to be when I'm older? COOOOL!!" [His face: 8D] He bounced around happily, and didn't notice anything that was going on.

[ Wrath -2 ]

Amaterasu's attention was taken when she spotted a crazy Abra shooting people right up into the air. She immediately abandoned her attacks on Wrath and began to draw flowers in the sky, Konohana Blossoms. They first appeared to be small upside-down peaches, but soon opened up to reveal a beautiful pink flower, suspended in the air and opening downwards. Three of them she managed to create, and from each she drew a vine down to grab one of the falling Pokemon, slowing their descent. She only had time to save those three; the others were on their own.

((SAVED FROM DEATH BY FALLING: Incultyr, Laura, and Zori!))

Zosee continuously latched herself back onto Jasper every single time she got thrown off, digging her fangs and claws deeply in. Injuries and wounds marked her body, some quite seriously, some inflicted by Wrath, others by attacks guildmembers were aiming at Wrath; but if she noticed them, she didn't seem to care. The Fire in the air did nothing to deter her, his half-houndoom nature protecting her from the brunt of the attack. Zosee was scary when she was angry.

Incultyr swore when he felt the Abra grab him and teleport. His reaction was fast, lightning fast, and in the split instant between disappearing and reappearing he grabbed his magic, and when they reappeared, an explosion of dark energy expanded out from his body, hopefully hitting whatever had grabbed him. As he began to fall, powerful vines came down from the sky and wrapped themselves around him, jerking him up for a moment as it stopped his momentum and gently lowered him back down to the ground; he didn't question it, there were other more important issues right now. He fought his way free of the vines a few feet from the ground, desperate to get back to Morana and Chase. Whatever was happening to Morana, he couldn't leave her alone with Chase! Completely ignoring the fire that scored his hide, he ran as fast as he could back to his teammate.

Incultyr was too late; he never had a chance to get back in time. The moment the Larvitar holding her back vanished, Morana leaped forward onto Chase, who was writhing on the ground in pain. He cried out when Morana landed on him, lashing out desperately with fire and psychic energy, but the houndour was unfortunately immune to both. He managed to score a hit on her side, a kicking leg digging a claw into her belly and dragging along the flesh before exiting but she didn't seem to notice.

The houndour batted away a feeble attempt at protection and finally got a clear shot at his throat, and she didn't hesitate. Morana suddenly froze when she tasted blood gushing into her mouth and felt windpipe collapsing under her powerful bite.

The Houndour stumbled backwards off of the Vulpix, horror etched on her face for only a moment before the madness took her again, and she jumped back in to finish the kill.

(-stuff from Zosee going insane, let's say 3.

I BLAME RICHARD FOR THIS D< Incultyr was the only thing between Morana and Chase emo )

"Imiti? Imi~ti? Imiti, do you hear me? Earth to Imiti? Nono--Imiti, what are you doing? Bad boy! Bad Imiti! Stop--GAH!

As the Dark-type attack hit, Imiti and Celsus were sent flying even higher. Imiti blacked out, and when he regained consciousness, the ground was approaching entirely too fast. He used his natural abilities to slow himself down, and touched the ground in a more comfortable manner.

"Now, Imiti. Calm. Down. You've already caused entirely too much trouble, and by the looks of it--oh dear. I--Why don't you, uh, not look that way? I--I don't think it's suitable for a kid like you to see." Celsus's rant ground to a halt when he noticed Chase.

Imiti, of course, was still not listening at all. He gathered up his energy again,
crack
was in the air, a heavy rock in hand, and came down with all his falling momentum onto Wrath's head with the rock, during a half a second when Zosee wasn't blocking the way.

(-1 Wrath)
