Welcome to Gaia! ::

It would seem to take forever as they traveled through tunnels that sometimes gave them splashes of light in the darkness. Though the trip had started off with them surrounded in light ....as the original area showed the touch of man, and the sight of things like pokemon and the walls ...soon it would only be darkness that could be seen outside of the train.

Miles and miles of darkness, until finally the screeching of the train wheels and a sudden lurch would bring their trip to an end. But, if the passages though they had reached their final destination they would find themselves wrong ...as something blocked the tunnel and forced the train to stop.

"Sorry, we have to inform you that we are having technical difficulty. Any trainers that would like to help us clear the tracks will be much appreciated."

The voice would tell them as Professor Barney whom had fallen asleep in one of the seats would start to snore with the Newspaper over his face.

He wouldn't be joining them for this one.

Stay here... adventure... stay here... adventure. Screw it. Tsuki stood, only now feeling his legs ache slightly from sitting the entire way. Not fun. Regardless, it was best that he try to help as well. In any case it was his last chance to train before Barney set them on their actual mission.

Walking out, with Infinem behind him, Tsuki would ask "I'd like to help as well. Do you know anything that might be causing the problem?" If not her, an engineer might. Better to go into a area with some prior knowledge than without. For example, when he went to Beginner's Island without being told to get an old amber. Yeah, not fun.

Plenty of Pokemon to see and a rare (and possibly strong) one waiting for them? It sounded like a prime opportunity to get out on stretch his legs. Besides the similarity to caves, Tsuki had already decided what to do and it certainly didn't include declining to help.

Besides, maybe doing this would smooth down all the drama going around. But he knew well enough even suggesting teamwork with Raven, like at Iron Island, would probably end with being ignored. So he wouldn't do so. "I'll do my best." he said, waiting for the man to tell them were to go. There were multiple exits so it was best not to get ahead of himself.



 

The man would smile at them both, as he would wave his hand in a motion to follow him. Two trainers, it would be enough for the moment, as he looked back into the car hoping that others would follow as the Professor continues to snore loudly.

"IF its just the two of you, you might find yourself in double or triple battles. There are quite a few pokemon out there."

The man would caution them once as he started walking towards the front of their car, and then through another car ....and another until he reached the door that would have lead them to the engine room. Here he would open the door to the side and step aside.

"If you need healing come back to me. I am not fully licenses, but, I once trained to be a pokemon nurse."

He would blush lightly at those words. They weren't exactly something that a male would normally say as he looked away nervously.

The sound of pokemon could be heard in the darkness, thanks to the fact that they were in the darkest part of the tunnel ....the only light that could be seen in this place came from the open door. And the pokemon here had enough sense to stay away from the light, as it would seem that once more, they would be fighting in a dark cavern ...nothing could be seen until they step into it and brought some sort of pokemon to shed light on the situation.

(Select Random number 1 - 15)

In the darkness the light would shine on them first ....a light that reflected back ...as the Steel of the steel type's body would return the light in equal power. The glowing and flashing would hide almost the sound of the pokemon that charged from the other side .....as the Phanpy tries to literally knock Raven off of his feet ...while the Aron shift closer to where the battle would be taking place.

2 vs. 2, it would seem that his first battle would be a double match.

(Phanpy's charge)

The Phanpy would be stopped by the massive bulk of the pokemon, because, otherwise, Raven might have found himself in a painful situation as the pokemon screeched to a halt. His eyes narrowed as he looked from one to the other as as he would trumpet loudly.

The human had managed to get away, but he had left his pokemon behind has the thought came to mind. If he could knock him out ...he could climb up his opponent to the child above, and once they had one under their control.

The thought of all the great food stuff inside of the train made him smile to himself as his partner would move slowly behind him.

(I got the Charmander, you take the Steelix)

He would tell his partner as the pokemon rolled his eyes.

Steel on Steel was never a fun battle. The Aron would move towards his opponent as the Phanpy would skip aside to face the fire type ...the two had forgotten quick quickly this was a team battle as they stood alone on the defensive.

"Fable, Ember. Genn Ice Fang. Focus on the Phanpy!" Raven barked from atop the train, kneeling slight to stabilize himself. His opponents might have neglected this being two on two, but Raven wasn't about to make that mistake. For the time being the Phanpy was the weakest link, and he'd make sure the Ground-Type paid for it!

A low rumble came from Genn in response, beady eyes twinkling ">Fire and Ice....I LIKE IT!<" The Steelix bellowed, surging forward. Icy mist filled the air each time he exhaled, transforming thick squared molars into deadly icicles; frozen fangs meant to tear into his opponents flesh.

Tail thumping against the ground the Steelix would rear back...and that's when the shot was fired....literally. A ball of flame accompanied by trailing smoke sailed through the air, intent on striking the Phanpy squarely in the face before Genn descended.

Eyes glinting once more, the Steelix would hold position a moment to let the Ember strike first before he lunged downward, maw open wide as he followed with Ice Fang!
