Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I want to try and not hurt Ceramew if we can help it, just in case she survival the fragment removal, so Crunch is out of the question." Sub said to Chaos, then turning his gaze to Ceramew, noticing the incoming water tentacle, summoning forth Griswold in order to Faint Attack out of the way, barely managing to do so.

"You're going to attack me head on? Whatever." Ceramew sighed as she summoned up a Protect to block Sol's attack. "Is that really all you can do?" She taunted Sol.

Instead of offering options one at a time, Chaos sent Sub a list of Deathgiver's and Ragebearer's moves via SNAG, then made sure the two pokemon were well out harm's way.

"More attacks? You can't hurt me!" Ceramew laughed, but her amusement ended as the Trapinch and Chi slammed into the Protect, their Feint attacks shattering the protective barrier. "If you have anything to restrain her without harm, use it now!" Sub shouted as he released Nevermore. "Quash!" He ordered, the bird taking flight as a dark aura surrounded her, and Ceramew as well. "W- what!? My Protect! I'm gonna- I can't move!?" She roared, struggling to move, and she could, a little bit. "Nevermore's Quash isn't enough, I won't be able to safely rip out the fragment if we can't bind her completely." Sub told the others as he looked up at Ceramew in the sky, who seemed as if she was getting ready to fire off another Draco Meteor as a vortex of energy began to slowly form above her. "Crap!" Sub shouted.

Veronica sent out her ditto so that it could transform and immitate the other pokemon using Quash. "Moon, use roar up at the vortex," Veronica then sent out Spirit to have an Ominous Wind sent into the vortex directly. With that, all of her pokemon would be out in play. I hope I did the right thing... Luckily, BlackCrystal only had to be nearby the hybrid for his Area Trap to help out and Chi would use Taunt once Feint was pointless to get the enemy's attention.

Opening his eyes, Dan found his Rhyperior towering over him, having protected him from the Draco Meteor. The moment he saw his trainer was ok, he rolled over beside him and groaned in agony. Rising to his feet, he returned the giant to ease his pain. "Thanks Goliath..." Heading over to Diva, the psychic had used her body to protect Alex and Freya when the Protect had failed. The Gardevoir was heavily injured but when she saw her trainer, she appeared to have a lot of strength left to fight. Emitting a faint pink light, Diva used Healing Pulse on Alex and Freya. "Diva...Thank you" Dan sighed. Turning his attention to "Ceramew", he saw Sub and the others trying to restrain her. At the same time, he could see another vortex beginning to form in the sky. He couldn't stop the incoming attack but he could help in restraints. "Diva use Imprison!" A faint restricting glow would come over Ceramew, as Diva attempted to restrain her. Dan kept his eyes on the vortex, expecting that move again, gritting his teeth as he didn't know if they'd survive much more of this. "Dammit...If only one of pokemon knew Torment..." he growled, feeling a little less than useless at this point.

Thanks to the barrage of restricting moves, Ceramew was completely immobile, the Draco Meteor stopped by the Torment, and also pulled down to the ground by Sol, held in place for Sub to come forth and rip that thing out, just as Blizz held Kareem in place. "If Ceramew dies, I hope you do as well." Sub said as he approached Ceramew and Sol, speaking to the being inside the young girl. "You have no idea the severity of the mistake you are making..." Ceramew replied. "Mistake? The only mistake is you." Sub said as his Snag Machine began to glow, the chi converter function activating. The Snagem leader would then slam his palm into Ceramew's chest, a dark aura surrounding the young girl as a mass of chi began to surface on her chest, the fragment beginning to form.

"Gah...no, it's too much..." The body snatcher cried out, beginning to squirm as signs of the moves failing began to show. "Stop! It will kill all of us!" The being continued to protest, Sub was curious about what this 'it' was, but for now, he was more worried about ripping this fragment out. "No! I won't go down with all of you! I must...I must survive!" And with that, as if by sheer will alone, the parasite pulled its self out of Ceramew, leaving the meteorite fragment behind inside of her as a jet of water spewed out of Ceramew's mouth, forming into a puddle of the ground, and soon solidifying into a tall and slender humanoid person, with a blue transparent body of water, two antenna on the top of its head, and the various markings that Manaphy normally have. This person was strange as not even its physical characteristic gave any indication that it was male or female, despite being nude.

"You can all die here by yourself! I shall live!" The person declared, panting heavily, exhausted. The Manaphy hybrid would soon convert its self into water, and retreat into the ocean. "That thing separated its self from the meteorite by will alone...who was that..." Sub pointed out, slightly distracted, that was until Ceramew began to change color and shape, her body turning completely pink, her antenna and ribbons fading, she was becoming more like a certain Pokemon, Sub said didn't care about that right now.

"It's out!" Sub shouted in victory as he held up the large meteorite fragment in his hand for all to see, it was over, Ceramew was freed from the body snatcher's control, and they had finally retrieved the last of the fragments, all in one, it was over.

"I don't know, I didn't get a good look at it." I said to Sol. "Regardless, I certainly hope that this is over. I'm ready to head to bed now. And I think Typhlosion is tired of being a crutch for me at the moment."

"Ty-pho-sion." The fire type said.

Yea, I was exhausted. Two major fights, a lot of pain, more so in my hand considering I pretty much punched a living steel wall. Chi for the most part tapped since I ended up using it all between using the Chi converter on the Banette Kid and to finish off that Steel Channeler. I was ready to sleep this day off like a bad hangover.

"Agreed. I can't wait to go home" Dan chimed in on Blizz's comment. His whole body ached and felt sore from the endless explosions and being tossed about. Alex and Freya still seemed to be out so he'd have to carry them both somehow. Sitting down, he let out a sigh, exhausted from this whole ordeal. "Are the SNAG's working again? Someone call a Claydol..." the trainer requested, going from sitting to laying back with outstretched arms. Still, what was that water figure talking about? He didn't really hear what it said, too engrossed in what was going on. At Sol's words, he slowly sat up, looking at the hybrid before looking around. Was it really not over?
