Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sammy gulped. What was happening? She looked at the dark spot forming, grimacing. He would need a visit from the Chanseys for sure. She stood up, trying to get a better view of the lava. "Thanks for the help, but it might be better if you go," she said to Skylar. Was there really any point of him staying?

"He fell," Sammy stated simply. She actually hadn't seen what had happened, although she knew it took place during the battle.

Adie looked up at Skylar as he said that Ike wasn't looking well, giving him a 'no duh' expression. If she hadn't already been on the ground as the shaking became more intense, she would have fallen over. Thankfully, Lugia turned to them, giving them a little bit of confidence as she tried to think of a way to get them all out of here in one piece.

"We need to get him back to base, soon," she said over the sounds of the volcano, a look of concern coming over her features as she saw the dark spot spreading into her shirt. She seemed to be ignoring Kai as he asked what happened. As far as she was concerned it didn't matter how he was bleeding, just that he was, and they needed to get him out of here as soon as possible.

The Volcano shook harder, the ground beginning to bulge slowly. Lugia's eyes grew wide with worry.
"Quickly, we have to get off this Volcano!" Lugia told the team. He lowered down to the ground, allowing members to climb onto his back. "It's about to erupt!" he warned.
Ike was still motionless on the ground.
Skylar peered down at the boy he only knew because of Jasmine. He knelt down to Ike and pulled out a poke ball, releasing his Clefairy. His voice turned from excited and cocky to somber and serious.
"Clerfairy, use Healing Wish." he told his pokemon. Clefairy turned around and looked at Ike. It wasn't used to hearing something like this from its trainer.
"Clefairy!" pleaded Skylar. Clefairy nodded and placed one of its little hands on Ike's forehead. Clefairy started to glow white, healing powers flowing from its arm into Ike's head. As Clefairy fell to the ground, fainted, Ike stirred.
"Hehn." Ike managed to get out. Skylar turned to all the members.
"Help me get him on Lugia!" he asked, lifting Ike up by the shoulders.

Kai watched the volcano rumbling. "Wow, it does look like it's going to blow." Kai said, looking down in the volcano, watching the lava stir up, forgetting about the fact that he should be on Lugia, he was phasing out. He then shook his head and started running towards Lugia.

Once everyone was on his back, Lugia made haste in lifting off the Volcano and speeding off toward the horizon. He flew almost a half a mile off shore and turned around just in time for what looked like the entire island being blown to smithereens.
Clouds of dark gray ash bellowed up into the atmosphere from the volcano, half of the mountain coming crashing down into the ocean. Blocks came flying out of the cloud of ash, crashing back down onto the island.
Skylar daringly stood up on Lugia's shoulders, keeping his balance with one hand on Lugia's neck.
"Boy'did we get out of there in time or what?" he said, his hand over his forehead blocking the sun.

Ike was having the strangest dream. He was in the middle of a gigantic city, taxis and people walking right by him without noticing him. The skyscrapers above glowed with advertisements and television screens. He was like a ghost, people walking right through him. Suddenly the City's lights went out. People started to scream, car tires screeched to a halt. Above in the night sky, a purple vortex opened up, and a giant ghost-like pokemon came out of it. Ike looked back down straight in front of him. Cyrus was clenching his fist, laughing at Ike.
"What a new city. What a new world." he laughed.

Ike jumped, waking up on Lugia's back. His heart was racing, his head throbbing.
"Wha- huhn..." he groaned.
Skylar watched as half of the volcano smoldered in smoke.

Kai watched the Island and the Volcano. "Wait... Isn't the base back there?" Kai asked, sitting on Lugia's back.
