Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sammy looked over at Ms. Maddy, noticing she was acting strange. "Uh, Ms. Maddy? You okay?" She asked, furrowing her eyebrows in a questioning manner.

Sammy looked down at Vixen. She trusted him, but he was tired from the battle. "You wouldn't mind?" She asked timidly, afraid that it would make him mad.

"Nah," Cody smiled at her. "Plus, if I did, Flygon would kick my a** anyways..." Just as he said that, Flygon popped out of his pokeball and picked Sammy up and hugged her.

"Okay," Kiara said, more to herself than to anyone else. She tossed a pokeball, revealing her scyther. She got onto the bug pokemon's back and he took off, Kiara thinking about the day's events so far.

Sammy hopped up onto Flygon's back, feeling a little strange... Vixen was so much smaller than Flygon. She didn't even know how to hold on. Carefully, she spread her arms across Flygon's back, making sure to hold on tight. "To Aquos!" She shouted cheerily.

"Whatdaya mean?" Sammy asked, cocking her head to the side a bit. She sat up, not afraid of falling anymore. Well, not as much.

A high pitched scream erupted from her as Flygon dove towards the ground where a massive battle was taking place, landing on the ground with a thud as Adelle practically fell off the pokemon onto the ground, where she landed on all fours. Pulling the pokeball from her pocket, she returned Flygon, not feeling it was right to use someone else's pokemon in a situation like this. No, she was going to have to rely on herself, which did not come a moment too soon.

A shadow Nidorino let out a feral wail as it started to charge straight at her. Releasing seel into battle, the white pokemon looked at the oncoming pokemon, bracing itself for the attack, which knocked it back into Adelle, who did everything she could to catch it.

"Seel, ice beam," she called out, her pokemon flipping into the air as it released a blue beam from the horn on it's head, which the nidorino tried to dodge. Luckily for Adelle, the ice beam caught it's hind feet, sticking them fast to the ground. The shadow pokemon tried to move, the ice starting to crack, but before her seel could have another chance to attack, it released a powerful poison sting attack towards Seel.

Seel rolled across the ground, managing to dodge the purple barbs before she rushed forwards in a take down attack that slammed into the Nidorino with an incredible force. Throwing one of the shaids balls she had been given at the pokemon, she waite til it stopped moving before she stepped forwards, stooping to grab the ball and returning Seel for a well-deserved rest.

She was about to say something to the rest of the group before a shadow Pidgeotto dove out of nowhere, attacking the air where she had once been standing as she ducked down. Releasing Squirtle, her pokemon released a water gun attack that knocked the bird pokemon from the sky, where it hit the ground rather hard. As it got to it's feet once more, a powerful flap of its wings sent a powerful gust attack in Squirtle's direction.

The attack lifted her pokemon off the ground, causing her to quickly scream out for Squirtle to use withdraw as he fell towards the ground once more, hitting rather hard. Running forwards to make sure that her pokemon was alright, Squirtle released a hydro pump attack from his shell, sending the soaked Pidgeotto sliding back across the ground before digging it's talons in and shooting forwards in a quick attack.

Squirtle was hit by the attack, and knocked back a few feet before Adelle ordered a tackle attack, which hit the pidgeotto ssquare in the somach before it had a chance to react. As the pokemon began to show signs of wear, Adie used her remaining ball to catch the pokemon, causing her to jump in the air slightly. Returning her pokemon, she looked around to see that the rest of the team was starting to head back towards the HQ.

Looking around to see if there was anyone else she could catch a ride with, she cursed to herself softly for being so slow.

"Mental note...work on getting a mode of transportation."

"Flygon has it all under control. Believe me," Cody said and smiled. "So do you think you've changed your mind at all?"
