     Amaterasu && Morana && Incultyr && Chase && ZoseeAmaterasu gave a final bow to the body of Selena, before turning to the one who claimed he was the last General of Hell. The Goddess growled, her fur bristling as she prepared herself for the fight. Renewing the faltering image of the sun in the sky, she dashed towards Jasper who had just begun to rip the field apart with electricity. Two lines later, a thick purple mist hang in the air around the goddess, visible only to her and her little passenger, the world suddenly slowed to a crawl for them. She dodged from side to side easily around the slowed red lightning, an almost invisible blur to the world around her. Four seconds later relative to her, the world returned to its normal speed but she was already safely at the tree. With a growl, she drew a line that went both through Jasper and the tree, cutting the trunk in half. Seeing the lightning zap across the battlefield was terrifying to Chase, who could not react in the split-second it reached him and Morana. He leaped aside as a bolt went for him, scorching the fur on his side. Morana hopped from one feet to another, the sparks going after her more than Chase; it seems her half-manectric nature was drawing them, and they hurt lots. She did some expert dodging aided by some a future sight, but she could barely hold her footing on the ground that was being torn asunder about her. A moment later all the red sparks around the two disappeared; a few meters away from them Incultyr was approaching, most of the bolts drawn harmlessly into him. He didn't seem to notice them though, as he was headed straight for Jasper. Though he wasn't going very fast, the ground around him stabilized as he countered it with his own earth abilities. God knows how slowly he'd be otherwise. As everything finally settled, Chase immediately closed his eyes. That last move was really bad for him and Morana; both were half-covered in dirt and couldn't keep their balance. A bright flash of light appeared in front of him, and another right in front of Jasper a moment later. Morana shook the dirt from her fur and charged at the tree, quickly outaking Incultyr. She stopped beside a pure white Absol, tried to find the Raichu amongst the fallen tree, and then decided to simply just light the thing on fire. Zosee ignored most of that last attack. She channelled the electricity safely through her into the ground, and her Volt Globe helped her keep her balance. She zoomed across the field, and with a snarl launched herself at the Raichu the first moment she could see him. Which may or may not be before the tree was set on fire depending on if Jasper went down with the tree or got out cleanly. Whatever the case, she was ready to tear him to shreds. He had been the one who had suggested this entire thing, had watched as Greed took her love's mind without so much as a hint of remorse...she'll show him wrath. (Sunny day still in effect! Jasper's Tree has been felled, and consequently set on fire! Chase used Disable! -2 Wrath, extra if he was caught in the tree fire)

   ~ Armand~ Veronica~ Jasper~ Strangely calm and morose, Armand closed his eye, paid his respects to the fallen Umbreon, then looked at his teammates. "And so is the way of war." Veronica, still in shock, just gaped at her leader, "B-but, how can you be so unfeeling!?" Death was a new concept to Veronica. Despite her tough outer shell, she most certainly hadn't been exposed to everything out there. Armand just looked at his shorter partner with a sad look in his eyes, about to say something when the floor around them erupted in flurry of red lightning. In an amazing display of reflexes, Armand scooped Veronica up and grabbed Jasper by the back of his neck before quickly disappearing in large cloud of darkness.
Several seconds later, the team reappeared in a similar cloud. The Shadow Force had acted as a useful device for avoiding the wrathful lightning. Armand stared in the direction of the ghost-turned-Sin, "I offer you a way to grieve." He then took his own advice and spouted a rather forceful Ominous Wind at Raichu and the flaming tree on which he stood. Not quite satisfied, but willing to make a compromise, Veronica fired off several Stone Edges. Jasper, on the other hand, would have preferred to run over to Chance, hug him tightly and sob. Unfortunately, that probably would have gotten him killed. So instead he fired off his usual Mud Shot at the evil Raichu.
((-4 Wrath))

Team Nikko dodged the lightning as best they could, before executing a few moves of their own. Verity zipped towards Jasper in a Quick Attack, jumping over ground being torn up and avoiding lightning, striking him and rushing away back to her team. Meanwhile, Sara was up to her own tricks. Just as Verity came rushing back by her, she opened her wings slightly, puffed up her feathers in a threat display, and let out a cry as a mirror appeared above her. As the red lightning hit the mirror, it was reflected back at Jasper. Yuki fired an Icy Wind attack at Jasper as well. They heard a gasp, and a small thump. In glancing backwards at Verity, they saw she had small sparks crackling around her form, and she seemed to be straining to move. "What's wrong, Verity?" yelled Yuki back to her. Verity made a strangled noise in response. "She hit Jas-per," said Sara. "Para-para... para-lyyyze." Yuki nodded as she continued to dodge lightning. Verity had hit Jasper and been paralyzed by his Static ability. Yuki turned, and formed a shield around Verity, much to her own surprise. She hadn't known she had learned Protect. Then she returned to defending her own self, while still trying to maintain Verity's Protect shield. It wasn't very easy. She could see how Alfred had fainted, and this was just a small Protect! [-2 Wrath at least from Verity and Yuki's attacks and however many for Sara's attack, so at the very least -3 Wrath]

Ⱦeam Ðaɍksţaɍ ~✭  XXX XXX XXXXXXX—¤÷(`Nadia & Vincent & Luke ´)÷¤—The three was suprised Jasper was the final sin, Wrath. Honestly, they didn't knew what the Raichu is like before he died. The war, where Jasper died, occurred not that long after they became a rescue team, especially Luke whom is the most recent recruit. So they didn't really got the chance to actually met him.
Nadia swished her tail before positioning herself to pounce. Vincent was first to strike with a Psybeam followed by a few Psycho Cuts by Luke. Finally, the Poochyena started running towards the gray Raichu with a Poison Tail ready to hit. She repeated going left and right to dodge the red lightning striking to the ground. By the time she was near the Raichu, she jumped and struck the Poison Tail before falling back to the ground because of gravity.
{{ 1 Psybeam, 1 Psycho Cut, 1 Poison Tail = -3 Wrath
I could have done better if I wasn't so depressed right now ; w;}}

    Serrin & Tolin & Albus & Laura" Woah, now. Hey." Well, his breathing was still regular. He was probably just tired from blocking that obscene judgment; he'd probably be scolding Solaris for it the moment he became conscious. If he became conscious. Tolin didn't have to be looking in Jasper's direction to hear and feel the ground being torn apart. No time to identify the assailant, just have to get Alfred and go. If he was left here, it would probably be the last any of them saw of him. Tolin tenderly slipped his scythes in under Alfred's waist and lifted him off the ground. He didn't really have the concentration to keep his blades fully dulled; Alfy would probably have some bruises and a torn coat when he woke up. But, ah well, it beat death by electrocution. Tolin wasn't keen on focusing entirely on Alfred, either; he couldn't backpedal long distances and had to focus almost entirely on making sure he stayed ahead of the attack (whatever it was) that was streaming towards him. " So then, Jasper! Who is it you were manipulated by?" Albus walked around a strip of lightning. They were stupidly easy to dodge. As long as they stayed tied to the earth, they moved as an extraordinarily slow pace for electricity and they traveled in a perfectly straight line. Anyone with any real combat experience could simply step around them. " Do you dance to Arceus's tune? A failure of a man who died a vain death, doing the bidding of a complacent god who uses little more than words?" He deflected a bolt and responded with a small flamethrower of his own. " Or are you a puppet tied to Darkrai's strings? Nothing more than a mere plaything on the end of a half-dead puppeteer's wires?" Albus spat at the ground. " Or are you such a fool that you would get forced into the service of one and then relinquish yourself to the other? A naive man who would abandon redemption? Or were you a petty man who sought the power to bring destruction out of childish rage?" Albus goaded the Raichu on. He was Wrath? This half-dead s**t? So, then why had he brought them in? Was this some elaborate trap of personal design, or was he told to by Darkrai? Was this the bidding of Arceus in some divine, needlessly complicated plan? Albus wanted to know. He wanted to know who he had to pay back for what he suffered at the hands of Greed. His needlessly ornate speech would tell him that. How would Jasper react to such accusations? His anger would likely be the only kind of answer Albus would get to the question. It's not like Jasper had any kind of advantage against the massive group aside from his power. He hardly seemed to be able to control it. Laura merely watched from afar. Normally she would be glad to join him, but... This was seriously beyond her. She would fight plenty of things on her own, especially in her new form. She would fight even more with Albus, knowing that he was definitely... capable enough. But some things she knew would kill her. So, she simply... sat back. Not that she liked it. Serrin had followed after Tolin, but the Scyther had made a guarded effort to place Alfred behind a tree where he would hopefully be safe. Serrin decided to take this task upon himself by promptly sitting on Alfred's chest. Nobody would get to this Gardevoir! His defense was impenetrable! MarcusMarcus carefully hid behind a tree far, far away from the fight. Such startling, unexpected sentiments like What's going on!?, Why am I even here!? and I wanna go home! ran through his mind. Who would have expected that a small child inexperienced in combat might think such things in the depths of hell!? (-1)

    .::Stark & Rem & Geisha & William::.Stark got up as the attack began. His gaze locked on Jasper, and rage rose in him. He was their friend... and now he betrayed them like THIS?? Stark felt the familiar rage build up, the pressure in his forehead. A dark voice sounded in the back of his mind. To every beginning, an end. To every day, a night. Let us consign ths traitor to the void, comrade.For once in his life, Stark couldn't agree more. Let's do it. He started to move toward Jasper, the flames around him seeming appropriate- they would soon be a pyre to his next funeral. "You were an ally... and now you betray us like this. You cast your lot with them," he said, his voice growing deeper and darker, black flames ripping the ground about him. Then, with a loud cry, two voices emanated from Stark's mouth: "Now you face OUR wrath!!" A gout of black flame suddenly envelpoed the Absol, shooting off into the desolate sky. When the flames settled, Stark had changed once again, his eyes sightless, his mouth grinning obscenely. "We fight as one, comrade!!" shouted Boros, his blind gaze locked on Wrath's form. Anytime, responded Stark from his mind. The two howled in unison, the flames around their feet warping and forming blades, then screaming toward Wrath, tearing the ground asunder as they shot forward. Meanwhile, the remaining trio of Team Blacksteppe watched in horror as this transformation occurred. Rem was the first to shake off the spell of the moment, his claw sharpening and hardening. "Well, what are we waiting around like idiots for? He needs help!!" And with that, he shot forward at an ungodly speed, swiping a Metal Claw across Wrath's face. Will blinked, then grinned savagely. "That's what I'm talking about!!" he cried exultantly, firing a Thunderbolt at the Raichu, clearly too caught up in the battle to realize that his attack was next to useless. Geisha sighed, but eventually sank into the ground. A shadow suddenly appeared underneath Wrath, as Geisha delivered a stunning uppercut to the Sin with Shadow Sneak. ((-4 Wrath))

  Imiti--- CelsusWhen Imiti heard "Let's skip Sloth", a small part of his mind was sent spinning in circles, unable to figure out why Jasper had made such a seemingly nonsensical statement. He'd been strictly taking the guild through the "rules", making sure that they fought through EVERY SINGLE CHALLENGE. " Wait, wait. That doesn't makAAAAUUUGGGHHHGETITAWAYFROMME" Hearing Celsus, and seeing the rapid approaching wave of fricking ULTRALIGHTNING, Imiti focused his energies and crackwas hovering fifteen feet up in the air. Using simple telekinetic energies, he gathered a few relatively large rocks and other things that looked heavy, hovered over nearly above Wrath, and used psionic force to push them in the Raichu's general direction. He may or may not have accidentally hit other guild members by accident. (-1 Wrath, and possibly -1 character in melee combat against him)

Era & Ethfael As if things couldn't get any worse, now they found out that Jasper, who had supposedly been helping them this entire time was Wrath. As the ruby lightning ripped towards them Ethfael used Agility to avoid the lightning. Era leaped off to the side to avoid the brunt of the attack, but allowed the sparks to jump onto her, to help refill her own electricity stocks. Grinning as she felt the sparks crackling at her cheeks, Era skipped over the next bolt as it came towards her.
When the first wave wore off, Ethfael stopped his constant dodging. "Wonderful," he said flatly, "Now we're facing a dark Raichu who has lightning worse than Judgement, a scythe for a tail, and has decided to turn against us after helping us here." He grimaced, "Things just keep getting worse and worse."
Era paused for a moment to listen to the words of a Flareon who was advancing on Jasper steadily. "You know," she said, "He's right. There's something strange going on here. Why bring us all the way to the depths of this place just to attack us before we get there, and why, if he's one of the sins too, did he let us do away with the other five? Also, why are we not fighting Sloth, we fought all the others, and Jasper himself said that we'd have to fight all seven of them before we could reach Darkrai. I think we're missing something, too many pieces of this don't fit together..."
Ethfael listened to her speculation as he scrutinized the scene. It was true that there were some things that didn't make sense, but might that just be what they were supposed to think? It could end up that there was more to this than met the eye, although what it was, no one knew at the persent moment. "I suppose we'll simply have to keep on our guard, he said, "Things are never what they first appear to be, especially in matters such as these. So let's watch and wait to see what exactly it is that is spiting us. After all, we are in the end facing Darkrai, and he's a master of illusions and dreams, especially nightmares. It could be..." Ethfael trailed off, the idea catching. "It could be that some of this isn't real, and that we've all been caught up in a dream."
Era mulled over the idea in her mind, unsure what to think of it. "Well, even if it is a dream," she said, "It's real enough right now, so we have no choice but to fight." With that she raced up to Jasper, using Headbutt on the Raichu before darting back. Electricity wouldn't do her any good against a Pokemon of her own type.
Ethfael watched his partner go and then followed through after her with Extremespeed and a blast of Icy Wind against the Raichu. Dodging the stray sparks coming from around Jasper he slipped back and waited beside Era for the Jasper's next move.(-3 Wrath; Headbutt, Extremespeed, Icy Wind)

 Zori"What fresh Hell is this?" Zori growled, having fully recovered from the burns. Her Heal Bell and Synthesis combined had done her body much good.
With her Soothe Glob hanging securely around her neck, she leaped forward into battle, diving sideways to dodge a brilliant, crimson super-bolt of electricity.
One hit could hold the potential to kill, if one were weak to Electricity. She twisted to the other side, dodging again as she ran. She lashed her tail to signal for her brother to stay back. He was a Steel and Fighting Pokemon; his attacks would be both less powerful and too risky for this battle. She didn't know what she'd do if she lost Raven.
She surged on toward Jasper, her paws catching on the rough terrain. She followed a Larvitar she knew to be Incultyr. She didn't know him personally, but clearly he was well-experienced in battle, as his magic easily flattened the rough terrain, making it the obvious path for her to follow.
As she came in closer to the Reaper, she reared back, her sharp teeth parting to reveal a swirling ball of brilliant green energy. With the sun shining brightly across the battlefield, her Solarbeam didn't need the extra time to charge. This was a good thing, because the beam would add the extra speed and strength needed to carry her Mud Slap across the distance.
She fired it off, the lime-toned beam of Grass Magic shooting toward Jasper, swirls of thick, gooey mud spinning around the outer edges.
{{ -3 Jasper, Solarbeam with Mud Slap (super-effective) }}

    Lucinda---&--- Leslie---&--- Spike---&--- Leon"I'm surprised at you, Jasper," Leon hissed as the Raichu revealed himself to be an enemy.
Wrath itself, no less.
"You were supposed to be the mind and embodiment of reason for our team. Now, in death, you've lost your ******** mind..."
The Lucario teleported behind the Raichu and let loose an Aura Sphere.
A very distraught and temporarily insane Leslie let out a loud roar of agony and began charging at Jasper.
However, a blast to the head knocked him out cold.
"Calm down, you. Ivy still needs a living parent," Spike muttered, having fired the shot that knocked the Luxray out.
Lucinda stood protectively by her sleeping husband, making sure to ******** that Raichu up if he made an attempt to attack Alfred.    Jean-Claude---&--- Maxi---&--- Chance---&--- Tommy"Well, this is quit a turn of events," Jean-Claude muttered, jumping up into the air and Bouncing on Jasper's head and jumping away.
Maxi fired off a large Mud Bomb, doing extra damage on the Electric type Raichu.
Chance shot a Poison Sting attack while Tommy rang his Heal Bell.

Solaris---Alfred
"Well, I got a taste for real power." The Raichu snickered out, leaping from his tree perch as it fell and then turning to slam his tail into the ground and send multiple Earthquakes across the field since his Thunder was temporarily disabled.
"Now you'll get a taste of mine."
Solaris had rushed forward, without his Psychic abilities he was left with brute force and the anger in his heart powered his next attack.
The Espeon slammed into Jasper's side with an Extreme Speed knocking the Raichu into the path of Leon's Aura Spheres.
The electric type gave a hiss as he was pelted and then directed his next attack at the cocky s**t Flareon attempting to piss him off.
Well, he was wrath. He was already pissed.
He vanished in a whirl of black smoke and appeared before the Fire Type with a smirk.
"Touch of Madness." He swung out a paw to strike Albus in the center of the forehead and then proceeded to vanish and appear to do the same to the following Pokemon:
JeanClaude, Era, Imiti, William, Nadia, Verity, Armand, Morana...
Wrath: 80
Touch of Madness! A special ability known only to the sin of Wrath in Hell.
It induces a terrible rage in the victim causing them to go berserk and lash out at friend and foe alike!

 Lucinda---&--- Leslie---&--- Spike---&--- LeonSpike yelped and managed to springboard himself into the air with some mechanical help, avoiding the Earthquake.
While in the air, he shot at Jasper with his cannon.
"Just because you lost your mind doesn't mean you have the right to steal the mind of another!" Leon hissed, firing off another Aura Sphere.Jean-Claude---&--- Maxi---&--- Chance---&--- TommyJean-Claude's eyes flickered quickly after he had been prodded on the forehead.
The Lopunny glanced around, and then let out a roar of anger.
He began striking at random Pokemon, until Maxi grabbed him from behind in a full-nelson.
The Toxicroak, after having fired another Mud Bomb, had seen Jean-Claude go apeshit and knew he had to stop the Lopunny.
Chance kept the Poison Sting attack up, and even Tommy entered the fray with a Close Combat attack.

ZoriZori flattened her ears as she heard her brother cry out, and she let out a soft hiss of fury, diving to the side to get out of the way of a fighting guild member. She didn't bother to pause and check who it was, for it made no difference. What did make the difference, was the fact that the ground beneath her paws was splitting and shaking to the point where it was causing pain. She leaped into the air, running through mid-air by leaping from carefully formed platforms of Dark energy.
The Shadow Force platforms were strong enough to hold her weight, but she could not hold them for more than a moment, and they disappeared the moment that her paws left them.
She leaped high into the air, before striking down, using gravity to help power the force of her Leaf Blade.
{{ -2 Jasper, manipulating gravity to make her strike more powerful. }}

Amaterasu && Morana && Incultyr && Chase && Zosee Morana reared back onto her hind legs in surprise as Jasper appeared before her, and she fell to her side as he touched her on her skull mask. Incultyr reacted fast enough to jab a long pointy piece of rock into the Raichu before he vanished again. "Anna, are you OK?" He asked his co-captain with concern, unsure of what the Raichu did to her. She got back up to her feet, shaking slightly. A growl rised in her throat, she trembled violently, and she shook her head as if trying to throw something off. It stopped as abruptly as it began, and she suddenly turned on Incultyr, hackles raised and eyes begging for the death of anything it landed on. She leaped at Incultyr, who couldn't get out of the way in time and she slammed into him, hard. His weight and bulkiness kept him on his feet, but Morana's jaws was locked hard around his head and his limbs were too short for him to throw her off effectively. Fire leaked out of her mouth, stinging painfully through the small holes her sharp teeth made through his tough hide. "Morana!" He cried out, flailing wildly. He didn't want to hurt Anna, but he had to get her off! What's going on!? Chase rushed closer to Incultyr as the Earthquakes passed, the ground type actively countering it by stabilizing a small area around himself. When he saw Morana attack the Larvitar, the Vulpix darted in. A flash of light appeared before him, and then right above Morana's head. Her grip lessened and Incultyr managed to drag her off by the front leg. He was shouting wildy, trying to calm Morana down as the crazed Houndour did everything she could to attack and kill the Larvitar. "Anna!!" Chase barked sharply, expecting this to be a result of what Jasper had done. Fear raced through his heart as he remembered Zero; was Wrath capable of permanently damage one's mind as Greed had been able to? He suddenly realized how terrifying the prospect was; he didn't want to lose Morana. She didn't deserve this, she was still so young, and so innocent... "Anna, calm down. Listen to me. Fight it." Chase spoke calmly, firmly, a hint of magic in his words to help him reach Morana, the real Morana. The Houndour turned to face Chase, cocking her ears as if she understood. She stood still for many moments, giving Chase hope that he had reached her. "C'mon Anna, you can do thi-ARRGHHH"The bloodthirst returned to her eyes suddenly and she leaped at Chase, pinning the Vulpix down on the ground. She bit down at his throat, but the other fire-type manage to intercept the attack with a foreleg. She bit down on the leg, bone cracking under the powerful bite, and electricity suddenly coursed through the small Vulpix's body. With a cry, Chase twitched spasmodically as the electricity went into his body, his muscles beyond his control as he twitched. "ANNA! CHASE!" Incultyr roared, dragging the Houndour off the half-conscious Vulpix. Zosee barely noticed what was happening around her. Her Volt Globe continued to stabilize the ground around her, nulling the Earthquake attacks. When Jasper disappeared, she simply charged straight at him, changing courses every time he disappeared again. The speed inherent of her species allowed her to be on him within a second of the last time he reappeared, and she leaped onto him immediately, ignoring all the other battling. She immediately bit down hard on a limb and started scratching and kicking with full force behind her claws, fire leaking from her mouth and her body sparking with the energy she had collected from Jasper's attack. Amaterasu growled with frustration at the sheer number of people attacking Jasper; she couldn't get a hit in without hurting allies, especially with that Manectric right on him. She brought forth her Canvas, staying back, and drew lines from the earth up to the Raichu. Vines shot out of the ripped, broken earth, growing themselves tightly around the Raichu in an attempt to hold him down. Thorn grew out from them, piercing skin. (-6)
