Cara nodded to Juno. "Alright then." She said. This lady had better be right and had better not be leading them to a trap. She finished up her food, putting her trash in her bag, to be dealt with when the adventure was over. She really hoped that the missing pokemon, or at least some of them, were wherever this woman was taking them. Cara turned her head to Zak. "I dunno, maybe about a quarter of a mile? I'm not really great with distances." She said with a small laugh and sigh.

Pile of Glowing Rocks group Still sore from the cubone incident, Dora remounted her farm-Doduo and rode it after the others. She was still suspicious of this glowing-rocks thing, and because of that stayed toward the back of the group, but... well, maybe she was just being paranoid? The Doduo she was riding didn't seem to think there was anything weird going on, walking along merrily enough at the back of the little crowd.

Xander looked over at the lady asking what happened while cuddling Koteetsu in his arms. "We got jumped by two Cubones." He said with a sigh.

Dave started to count the members of their group in his head. Miles happily ate Cael's offered snack. "You're a good human," he said to himself.

 HA! YOU'RE TRAPPED! (( Your trap CAN trap others with you. You are not allowed to rejoin the main ORP until you are rescued. See instructions here on how to get rescued. Since you're in a group, one person should create a thread, and the rest each post a yell for help there.)) Juno led her little group around a bend or two in the mountain path, out of view of the camp. The pile of rocks was there, just as she had described it, built of fist-sized dark stones from the mountainside and glowing from within with a flickering, purple-blue light. The tall woman strode ahead to stand beside the cairn, then turned a predatory, triumphant smile on her merry band of victims. Her Litwick's lantern dropped from her hand, its shroud falling away to reveal empty ironwork and glass. "Desdemona," Juno purred, " Will-O-Wisp!" Rocks clattered to the stony ground as the pile shattered. "Liiiiit!" The Litwick who had been inside stared heavenward as the flame atop her waxy body flared higher, brighter, hotter, turning nearly to white. You feel your energy burned away, sapped until you can no longer keep your eyes open. ~~*~*~*~~ When you awake, you find yourselves tucked into a shallow vertical crevice in the mountainside. You are bound hand and foot with fine but strong ropes, which may or may not be made of silk. Even if you had been free, you are kept inert and drowsy by the continued presence of the Litwick Desdemona, who stands ready to entrap any who might come to rescue you. "Twiiiiiick!" she hisses, bugging her mad yellow eyes at you.

@Pile of Glowing Rocks group Cael started to get a little tense as they went along. Something about the fancy lady creeped him out. She made him think one of those "nobles" from the old books Gramdpa had told him he wouldn't like. (He didn't, but winter was a long boring time and it was something to do when they were snowed in, even if it took forever to get through them. ) The ones who ran over children in carriages and had cleaning ladies whipped for spilling wine. Cael patted Miles on the head, watching Juno with furrowed brows. No one ran over people in carriages anymore, did they? ((I'm just to slow to do this sort of thing. *embarrassed*))

Remmy was making sure he stay near Zak. He didn't want to get lost again. He pick up one of the rocks and his eyes went wide. "Hey can I keep one! Please please please please! Squeeks want one too! Can we have one please!?" He ask with joy. He ran around humming a gleeful song because he love the way the rock look. Squeeks sing with Remmy as he hum. "Emolga~ Emolga!" He sung. He was having such a great time with everyone!

@Everyone in the campground area:
Fifi gave up on getting anyone to help her, and gathered a small pile of sticks herself. It wouldn't last terribly long, but she should be able to cook something. She merrily worked on a meal, eventually finishing and dishing herself up a mug. The fire was low under the pot though.
"Soup's on! Come and get it! If you want it to stay hot though, some help getting a little more firewood would be appreciated!" she called to the entire group in the campsite.

Lizzie let out a small 'oh' as someone answered her question. Her wild guess wasn't actually that far off from the truth. "And no sign of the missing Pokemon either?"

Mortimer looked around in Juno's bag, and finding nothing worth suspicion, relaxed and hobbled away. When the cubone fight ended, an extremely worn out old man wandered towards d**k. "You okay?" he asked as he surveyed his grandson's body, looking for any wounds.

Keria walked back to camp slowly after the cubone incident. She was tempted to just sit down and wait when she remembered Fifi going on about finding fire wood earlier. She had an odd feeling about the fluff headed girl and wasn't quite sure if she should trust her. Scanning the crowd she frowned noticing that the healer she had talked to the other day still seemed to be missing.

(catching up x.x)
Thanks to his time spent as a watcher, Rory had gotten used to sleeping in strange, slightly dangerous places so once he managed to fall asleep, he was out. At least until the commotion around him got louder and louder. He blinked blearily and cast a curious glance over at his brother before trying to figure out what was going on.
Ahhhh okay, pokemon were missing. "They have to be around here somewhere," he yawned, "most of them couldn't have gone far after the battle, could they?" he asked as he rubbed his eyes.
He did end up volunteering his and Rinzler's services to help aid one of the search groups though they still didn't make a successful return.
Just as he was starting to relax again. He cast a strange glance when he caught a glimpse of the bones. First the Cubone, now these...this trip was definitely becoming more interesting. He decided, however, to ignore them as he found a spot near Xander and settled down once again, pulling a couple protein bars from his backpack while Rinzler went over to where Xander and Kotetsu were settled.

Koorie watched Doyle until he was out of site, then turned to try to make sense of what was happening between Lexis and Arwen; granted she couldn't just up and say how ridiculous it was to accuse someone they hardly knew.... As she was about to step between them, the strange man came out from the woods, panicked over a lost child. Instant suspicion came over her face, as Miu who had gone above and beyond to find the 10 year old from their group earlier, hadn't made the slightest notion of there being something wrong out in the woods. " Arwen, Lexis..." She gave the two a serious look. "I'm going to investigate this 'lost child'." WIth out waiting for an acknowledgement from either of the two, she walked over to the man and whistled for Miu to rejoin her and follow. "Where was the child last seen and what is his name." It wasn't that Koorie was particularly a 'nice' person, but a lost child was a serious matter. Plus, she wasn't sure if it was the high-strung tension or her gut, but there was something wrong about the whole situation. Still, she'd follow and see where this led her.

@Everyone at camp:
Fifi sighed and rolled her eyes. "Okay, fine, I get that everyone is nervous right now. But here, free, hot food!" She lifted her own mug and gulped it down in one long pull, then held her empty mug upside down to show she had really drunk it. Then she gestured to the pot over the fire with the rest of the soup.
"Help yourself. If one of you can be bothered, poking the fire and giving the soup a stir now and again might be a good idea. I'll go get more wood for the fire myself, and hopefully not get attacked by anything else while I'm out," she said, spots of color high on her cheeks. "Because it isn't like I haven't already been accused of being a thief just because someone else found my pokemon, and let someone search my stuff and find nothing!" She flounced off into the forest, head held high.

Xander frowned and shook his head. "Nothing that way, though with all the bones there I'm sure the trainers are thankful their missing pokemon weren't there." He then tilted his head and pointed in another direction. "I was going to go check out over there a little ways for any of the missing pokemon or clues but since there have been so many attacks I didn't want to move from the camp with out at least one other person. Want to help?" He asked. He then raised an eyebrow at Rory when he came close. "Sleep well, lazy bones?"
