"Much better than yours...." Caleb grumbled. He didn't look up when Allen pointed at the pile of rocks. A flying type huh? That was easy enough. Caleb sent out his Noibat without a second thought. The tiny bat pokemon looked from Caleb to the pile of rocks. Marshtomp gave it a grin and thumbs up.
The Noibat scowled before gliding over to the pile. She easily found a nice sized rock and tried picking it up. The rock was twice her size, but she still tried her best. She flapped with all her might before plopping down on the rock and panting. She eyed a few pebbles nearby. Selecting one that was light enough for her to carry, she flew over the people posted outside the wall and dropped it. Mission accomplished! She wasn't entirely satisfied with her task, and continued moving back and forth, dropping more pebbles over her enemies. That's right peons! Cower in fear at the pebble rain!

Rei smiled at himself. "Well, you certainly fooled me, I'll give you that." He crouched low against the boulder and sent out Genmei, his Scyther.
"Genmei, you heard Allen, yes?" The Scyther nodded, suppressing a snicker. She looked at the rocks, then at her scythes. She gave a good chuckle, completely ignored the rocks, and sharpened her natural weapons. She needed no rocks to frighten off those weak of heart. Sneaking up behind the guards was child's play. With a lightning-fast movement of her arms, she sliced the nearest guard's hat to ribbons.
"Hey, man, what happened to your hat?" A nearby guard asked the victim.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Ow! Something kicked me!"
"I knew this place was haunted!"
"Hey, what happened to your cheek? Is that a cut?"
"Augh! I'm bleeding! I'M GONNA DIE!"
"OH MY ARCEUS IT'S RAINING ROCKS IT'S THE RAPTURE"
In the nearby woods, Genmei relished the fruits of her labor as panic set in.

With the men well pelted and running scared everyone was able to move through the town without incident and eventually out onto Route 6 and Northwest to Parfum Palace. They ended up looking out past the massive yard before the gate. "Alright, so, the gates are closed, looks like we're gonna have to sneak in." He bit his lip looking around the parameter. "Looks like we can sneak in through the lake out back, but other than that we're stuck outside.
He lead everyone through the surrounding greenery, keeping out of sight and sound. When they came to the gap between the trees and outer lake Allen noticed the bars leading down into the water. "Alright, Cecil bend the bars under the water so we can swim through. He nodded and there was a faint groan of bending steel. He grinned and withdrew the psychic type. Alright, here we go. He slipped into the water and quickly made his way through to the other side.

Rose looked around, curious, and at the same time cautious. She was just following the group, as she hadn't really paid attention when they discussed coming here or what they were doing here, but they were her teammates including the boss.

The Countess groaned. She hated the water. She saw no need to go diving, seeing how she could simply fly to the other side. She stuck her tongue out at Rei.
"Don't worry, Countess, I'm not going to make you join me for a little swim," he said. "Scout ahead where we'll surface, and let me know if you find anything suspicious." She nodded and flew off, beginning her scan of the area.
Rei dove under the lake, doing his best not to make a sound. He wasn't the sneakiest person in the team (that award went to Allen), but he was capable if need be. He easily slipped through the bars and resurfaced at the other side, keeping careful eye on his Zubat to ensure he wasn't swimming into a trap.

Caleb's Noibat snickered once water was mentioned. Maybe that would wake up her silly trainer! She went to go join the Countess on the other side. Marshtomp looked from Caleb to the water. How the heck was he going to drag his trainer through the water with the chair? Unless....
The chair floated along with the current and through the bars. Not suspicious at all. Down below, Marshtomp dragged Caleb along by his pant leg. Biting down on the icky tasting denim while swimming along.

Allen surfaced on the other side and quickly swam to shore to help the others up. Thankfully the sun was setting so they actually had a bit more cover. Alright. "We'll have to split up to search the Palace. Rose, Rei, you guys take the downstairs. Caleb and I will take the upstairs. We're looking for a pink colored stone with a yellow and black swirl in the center." He knew it would probably be on the second floor, but he needed to be thorough. "Message me if you need assistance."
(Warning: If you were one of the people who broke in last time, you should be even more cautious because security does know your face. But even if you haven't try to avoid people.)

Rei nodded and went to work.
"Rose, you take the left wing. I'll take the right." With that, he took off into the right corridor.
Having never infiltrated the area with Team Aqua before, he didn't have to worry too much about his face being recognized. Nevertheless, he took caution. For all he knew, every person in the palace was a goon for that gang Allen was worried about.
He decided that sitting in the broom closet after looking through the area would be a sufficient hiding place.

"Alright" Rose agreed and headed left.
She was cautious at first and found a servants storage area and she found no one there, so she had no trouble switching into some servants clothes and then she had no trouble searching, just acted like she belonged there, made some beds and helped out a couple people and generally just acted like she belonged there and no one thought to question her. She had no luck finding the item she was told to look for though, so she headed back towards where she parted from the others.

Marshtomp gave Allen a salute. He then looked down at his soaking wet trainer. Well at least the chair had made it there safely. He dragged the chair up on the shore and dumped Caleb on the chair. He then turned and grinned at Allen. The Noibat perched on the chair, looking at her trainer before covering her face with her wing.

Allen moved quickly to the inside, shifting through the shadows and slowly making his way quickly up the stairs to take the Western side of the castle. He rounded a corner to find the backs of there people dressed up extremely fashionably.
"You sure he's gonna be here?" One of them asks, peering into a room, the Library from the looks of it.
"Yeah, there's no way he wouldn't after the boss let loose that we'd be going after the stone tomorrow." The other responds, his smirk sounding in his voice. Allen stepped back out of sight, but as he did he bumped into something tall and soft. As he spun around he found a fist coming right at his head.
Before he knew what happened he was sprawled out on the floor with a loud ringing in his ear. The side of his face felt warm and tingled a little before any real pain set in. His head was spinning and would not stop. He heard the orders to get the others and slowly managed to sit up, "So it was a trap." He sighed loudly. "Alright. Lydia!" He called out loud. The ghost shot from Caleb's jacket and zoomed to Allen's position, "Shadow Claw." He called to her, the goons jumped back and Allen bolted down the hall, he quickly messaged the others while running that the goons were onto them and to fight them off.
(Reserve your posts. Fight 2 Thugs with 2 first stage Pokemon each. Try to either run away or knock them out after the battle.)

Distracted with dragging Caleb up the stairs, Marshtomp looked up just in time to see Allen take a direct hit to the face. The mud fish flailed his arms whenever Allen fell over, causing Caleb to start sliding back down the stairs. Right towards another thug climbing up the staircase. Noibat flapped her wings in alarm as she clung to the chair for dear life. The guy seemed to have a case of the grabby hands as well as he got ready to stop Caleb. Not on Marshtomp's watch!
A Mud Shot to the face followed by a leap and a punch to the gut stopped the man in his tracks. Sort of. The man tumbled down the stairs, coming to a stop at the bottom. Marshtomp grabbed the chair Caleb was in, stopping him from sliding anymore.
"Alright, Lydia!" Allen could be heard from upstairs. The Banette flew out of Caleb's jacket and went to assist Allen. Marshtomp just stared. Well that explained a lot.
Then more shouts. Caleb's eyes flickered open and he sat up.
"CAN'T A GUY GET SOME ******** SLEEP YOU PIECES OF s**t?" he shouted.
His Noibat gave a terrified squeak at the sudden shout.
Way to give away your position Caleb.
Two thugs showed up as if on cue.
Marshtomp pressed his hands together, looking at Caleb hopefully. Caleb rubbed his face, pulling his hair back before giving his pokemon the okay with a wave of his hand. Eagerly Marshtomp jumped forward, tackling Bunnelby as it had just barely been released from its poke ball.
While Marshtomp scuffled with the rabbit, the other thug sent out a Ducklett. Caleb grumbled, sending out his Vibrava. A loud screech errupted from Vibrava before it whipped up a shock wave with its wings and sent the duck pokemon flying. Vibrava flew right after it before throwing a sucker punch.
While the other thug went to collect his duck, a Bunneary was sent out by the first. Caleb just glared at rabbit sleepily. Vibrava was back. Get Dragonbreath'd. The man gathered up his bunnies and fled. Just in time for the other one to show up and throw insults at him.
Caleb stood there waiting with his Lairon. His Vibrava flew circles around him. Noibat made silly faces at the man. Marshtomp simply waved. The guy hesitated before sending out his Croagunk.
"Headbutt..." Caleb said quietly. The Lairon rushed right in, smacking into the frog with his head. The Croagunk just snickered before jabbing at Lairon with his arm. Lairon just stood there blinking. It then spun around and hit his opponent with his tail. The thug ran away crying after calling back his pokemon.
"Thank Arceus that's over..." Caleb muttered before looking around. "Now where the ******** are we and why am I wet?" he asked, calling back his Vibrava and Lairon. Marshtomp grinned sheepishly.

Rei looked at his newest roommates, the broom and mop, and was glad they were so accommodating. He twiddled his thumbs while waiting for a message from his TADS to get out and meet up. While he was waiting, a duo walked past the door.
"I heard Allen brought others here. You think if we find 'em, we could hold 'em hostage?"
Rei heard a man grunt. "No way, the boss would probably get mad at us for wastin' his time."
At this, Rei stirred. People were out to get his team? Never! He barged out from the door, thoroughly startling the men. In reflex, they sent out their Pokémon: a Parasect, and a Swadloon. In response, Rei sent out his Charmander and Scyther.
"Scipio, Flame Burst! Genmei, Swords Dance!" The Scyther danced into a frenzy, sharpening her blades and cackling all the while, as the Charmander spat out a fireball that splashed against the two Grass/Bug types. The flame was rather painful for both, but they held their ground and retaliated accordingly. Swadloon bit at the terrifying Scyther, and Parasect raked its heavy claws at the Charmander.
"Genmei, X-Scissor that Parasect! Scipio, another Flame Burst, but concentrate on the Swadloon!" The duo worked wonders on their enemies, Scyther making a deep gash into the Parasect's mushroom back, leaving the Flame Burst's aftereffects to drop right into the wound. Both Pokémon fell, unable to stand the combined efforts.
The first thug grunted and recalled his Pokémon, sending out a Graveler. His partner followed suit, tossing out his Weezing. Rei shrugged, recalled his team, and sent out his Shelgon and Mawile.
"Alright you two, play nice," he warned. Shelgon didn't like Mawile's haughty nature.
"Emo Cloud, Zen Headbutt the Weezing and hope that it doesn't explode in your face. Mawile, Iron Head that Graveler." The two nodded and glared at each other. In their native tongues, they held a challenge.
"I bet you I'll defeat my enemy before you do, Emo Cloud," Mawile taunted.
"You wish, Big Mouth," the Shelgon huffed. "I bet he's got too much defense to fall by your wimpy head."
"Yeah, well whatever, I can take him. And the Weezing's explosion, if he decides to do it."
"Assuming an Earthquake doesn't make you eat your words."
"As if! I'm too tough for that."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah."
"So I'm not gonna save you when you get your a** whooped, is what I'm hearing."
"I won't need saving, you will."
This argument went on for some time. The Graveler and Weezing exchanged significant glances and promptly exploded, deciding that knocking themselves out would be the only way to stop hearing the incessant chatter.
KA-BOOM!!!
The force was enough to knock a significant chunk of the palace wall into oblivion. In a panic, Shelgon raised its Protective shield and hid in its shell, but not before standing in front of Mawile to save her from part of the blast.
Mawile, in contrast, turned her back to the explosion, pulled out an Iron Defense, folded her arms, and laughed as the explosions did their damage. At the end of it all, the two thugs passed out from the explosion (they were closest to the blast, admittedly), while Rei poked his head out from the broom closet that he used as a makeshift bomb shelter.
"You two done flirting? We gotta go, before security pins the charges on us." Shelgon and Mawile exchanged silly expressions before returning to their Poké Balls, and Rei took off to find Allen and the rest of the group.
