x_Nata_x The healer almost thought the girl was going to hug him. Then again, maybe he had been watching too many chick flicks. He would never admit to anyone, but on the inside, Liam was quite the sap for things like that, despite the front he tried to keep up. This time, however, Lumina's excitement was contagious, and he felt that threatening bubbling feeling in his chest, as if he was about to grin and/or fluff her hair or something equally as 'un-manly.' Shoving his hands hard into his pockets, he laughed along with the other girl, watching her clutch the pokeball and grinning broadly.
"That, my dear, is completely up to you," he replied, amused.
Unfortunately, as situations often were, reality caught up fairly quickly. Tilting his head, he listened to the talk about the barrier, his frown returning. Mentally, he wondered if Ridley was inside, and his expression darkened considerably, his thumbs hooking tightly in his beltloops.  Having fallen at the tear gas, Lumina barely managed to scramble away, grabbing the vest piece offered by Liam in between hacking coughs, "The-others," her throat was currently boycotting her, "They alright?"
With the pokeball safely downsized in her pocket, Lumina grabbed what villagers she could and pulled them from the fumes. She could see them dropping more out, but didn't bother to look any closer. "How do we get close to something like that?" She huffed, shaking her head.
"It's frustrating. I had gotten to know a lot of those people on the trip." Lumina said through a grimace, "We all did. Then this."

Renekai  Zinnia looked around the inn desperately. The Rockets were fighting back, so how could she help? And then she spotted a corpse. It was a dead grumpig... How the heck did that get there? In any case, it deserved a proper burial.
Zinnia managed to toss the dead pokemon out into the crowd of people, hopefully squishing one or two of them allowing it to be laid to rest.[[ Next thing you know they'll be launching cows at us and insulting us in french. ]]

@ANYONE
Jay, still on the ground, lost as to what was happening, didn't react quickly as the tear gas billowed out. He caught a large dose before he managed to pull his shirt over his mouth and nose. His eyes were burning and breathing hurt. He turned himself onto his hands and knees. His eyes teared up and he was blinking, trying to clear his burning eyes, unsuccessfully. Still right beside the barrier, he ran his hands over the ground, trying to find the way to get away from the barrier and the gas.

EDIT
At the cry of tear gas, Liam grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling it up over his nose and mouth and squinting his eyes, and he tore off his vest, shoving it at Lumina, already sprinting out of the way.
"Cover your face!"
It happened a third time.
Time seemed to freeze for a few precious seconds as various images flash across your mind.
A missle flying through the air...
Fire...
Screaming...
A sense of fear...of warning...
What could...how? Where-
That's when another image enters your mind, this one of piece and warmth. Of protection.
It was the woods...that much was clear.
A clearing somewhere in the forest. Whoever, whatever was sending you these was also telling you how to get there.
In the center of the clearing, by a small creek of fresh water, was a simple shrine of stone with a small flame flickering like a beacon of hope.
Then, the image cuts off.
Quickly young one! An echoing voice cuts through the fog. The Shrine Clearing! Take your friends and allies there!
Then, like being shoved from behind, you are forced back into reality.
Only this time, there was a sense of calm coming from a single, echoing word in the back of your mind.
Quickly!

An Original Username Opal eventually got out of the range of the gas with Nerezza and Itzal's help. They took her over to Meeka and Rin. Once she got there, she began to feel woozy. "Meeka... I don't... feel..." With that, she passed out, unconscious.  Meeka watched as Opal collapsed and panicked. "Opal, OPAL!" she screamed and rushed to her aid. "Opal, wake up! Oh gods! Help, we need help Rin! Somebody, help, please!"

@EVERYONE
Zoey glanced back to see the corpse of a grumpig thrown mercilessly out into the mass of escaping trainers and civilians. She pointed and screamed bloody murder. "THEY KILLED A POKEMON!"

Jenn and Sir, ready for any instructions given by megaphone no matter the person (as long as they weren't Rocket of course), jumped to the order of moving the townpeople, Jenn having mounted the ponyta and ready to help. As the Tear gas began to sting in their eyes, the found a weak-looking person and pulled them from immediate danger. Jenn sat the older woman behind her on Sir and took off from the danger zone. They left the unresisting lady to rest against one of the shops on the farther end of the road, and then began the cycle again. Weaving through the now clearing gas, they managed to "rescue" another few people and pick up the lady from before, taking off the woods after the other trainers. Sir seemed to be able to hold the people for now, but they'd have to drop them off at the edge of the woods, and Jenn hoped they could find a good spot to do so soon.

 Anise finally reached the forest outside of town. Figuring it was safe enough for now, she helped the young man from town sit down against a tree then she stood up and looked around, trying to assess what the situation was now.

Quiet_Wolf Lauren heard someone speaking to her. Tears streaming, she nodded. "O'kay," she accepted his proffered hand, "O'kay."

Liam stopped as soon as he had reached the safety of the woods, one hand clasping his side as he panted, sucking in clean air. Well, what went up, must eventually come down. It had been a short up. He couldn't honestly say he was surprised.
Straightening, the healer fumbled at his belt, feeling that the pokeball containing his tauros was still there -- he'd retrieved it after he had awoken, but at this point everything was much a blur. Everything since last night had been happening way too fast, and Liam snorted a bit, shaking his head.
"I'm ready to go on a normal, peaceful adventure now."

"What?" Zinnia said to her fellow Rocket, horrified. "That wasn't an attack..." She looked a bit ill. She was a complete pokemon lover, and seeing the corpse had really taken a toll on her moral. Both Zyk and Shadow Mew looked a bit disturbed as well, but they were good at hiding it. Shadow, especially.

@ Anyone
Stumbling, Shina finally reaches the dubious safety of the woods. The burning in her lungs and eyes seems no better, even with the distance. The effort of running after such a large dose of tear gas is too much, and Shina slumps weakly against a tree, barely aware of the world around her.
