Welcome to Gaia! ::

Puer and Tolin announced something along the lines of "Solaris is over there and something is happening! Let's go there."

So they started going towards there. The shouts freaked them out.

Then Cysic went and got a sandwich.

~Jack ~Raven ~Kyle

Arceus DAMMIT!"
Jack quickly turned and spat at the Marowak whom had both struck him and challenged his masculinity all in one moment. Though in the end her cruel words and actions seemed to ignite something inside him that may just be for the better in the end. In one quick motion he was striding toward the center of attention known as Solaris with an enraged look etched on his face; oblivious to the crowd of both friend and foe surrounding him. At first this surely would invoke some fear in the feline but soon enough he was close enough in range to get his point across. With a paw outstretched he grabbed the Psychic Pokemon by the scruff and proceeded to hold him up at face view with himself.
"LOOK! I haven't the slightest ******** clue what's going on here, but if you can't tell your guild members are trying to help you out of this. Whatever those weird ghosts are doing to you isn't our problem yet we're still here at your side. Since it looks like we can't exactly do anything it's now your turn to get us out of this mess.
The enraged ball of fluff rambled out at the teary-eyed Espeon. Having noted that he was the only one actually reacting to the ghosts, surely Solly would be able to retaliate also.

"Kyah! WAIT!"
Kyle wailed as he was suddenly left alone. Not that he exactly knew the Eevee or anything but thus far she was his only acquaintance in this wasteland. Without hesitation he followed after and helped in their blockading formation; his size compared to the rest of them coming in handy.

"Having the same problem..."
Raven sighed out to his mate, unintentionally ignoring the fearful Milotic nearby in the process. It seemed being in such close vicinity to a scared child was just not his forte; Rin, however, was handling the situation as if she was an expert on it. After this realization he could only beat himself up mentally for wanting kids so bad yet apparently being terrible with them on the same note. Thankfully for the time being his mind couldn't be read...

Crescendo tensed when the Gardevoir reached a hand towards him, but he visibly relaxed when she began to stroke his head. He closed his eyes and drew in closer, nuzzling Rin lightly. Her words were reassuring, and he trusted her with them.

Morana cringed, whimpering as all the phantoms began attacking. The attacks passed harmlessly through her though, and Chase pulled her up, pointing this out to her.

He glanced at Solaris, and the Lopunny that had just picked him up and shook his head. The Guildmaster better snap out of this soon or he's going to have a permanent mental breakdown from the trauma or something. He threw up a shield, a Safeguard, using his psychic powers in order to make it as visible as possible to Solaris.

TO COME LATER.

((Everybody gets a nice, quiet little post round. People that haven't had a chance to post yet are free to do so now. Post round will last until early-mid afternoon tomorrow, whenever it seems like everyone active has posted.

When you post, please attach whether or not you want any of your characters to have a little episode like Solaris's. One primary character and one secondary character are preferred. This is of course based on the characters deepest fears and darkest anxieties. Past traumas are a bonus. We're bringing nightmares to life here.

Anybody who brings a nightmare into the chapter gets a bonus at the end. Best scenario gets something special.

Quick edit note: The nightmares will NOT be happening this post round. Some... things... will be happening with my next post. The nightmares will happen after that.))

.::Stark & Rem & William::.

Stark and William watched as the ghosts dissipated, and Solaris' nightmare disappeared. The two walked over to the Guildmaster, taking pains to ignore his sorry state.

"We're both fine, Guildmaster," said Stark, bowing slightly. "We haven't experienced anything like you have."

"Psh. Yeah. But that doesn't change the fact that we don't know why we're even here," cracked William, back to his old arrogant self now that the "danger" was over.

Stark turned to comment back at William, when a familiar voice cut through the silence.

"Stark! Will!!" Rem flew swiftly toward the duo, out of breath from his speed.

"Rem! Arceus, I can honestly say I'm glad to see you."

"As am I," said Rem, alighting before the pair. "I've been looking everywhere around this blasted waste for you. Where are we, anyway?"

"Not a damn clue," barked William. He suddenly jumped, as though remembering something important. "Oh! Hey, have you seen Geisha anywhere around here?"

"Or Luna?" said Stark hopefully.

Rem shook his head sadly. "Nothing. You're the first familiar faces that I've found in this place," he said.

"Dammit. Well, wherever they are, they should be safe," said Stark. Hopefully, he thought privately. At least Luna was with Geisha, wherever they were.

" I certainly hope so," said Rem.

"Bah, let's stop mopin' around about what we can't change. Let's focus on more important things- like how the hell we're gonna get out of this mess."

Rem glared at William, then turned to Stark. "Much as I hate to say it, he has a point. Any ideas?"

Stark shook his head. "It would help if we knew what brought us here in the first place," he mused. He looked around. "Maybe someone else knows more about this place. Come on, let's go look." He turned toward the rest of the Guild members that were stranded, Rem and William following along.

((Stark, Primary))

((Rem, Secondary))

((William, Tertiary [?]))
