united_one | Attack of the Munna [video/action]

Takashi was walking along, trying to find out new information about this new world. He was too shy to ask anyone for information, so it was just him and Meowth for the time being. Something up ahead caught his attention - it looked like a pink blob floating in midair. His blood ran cold - so far he hadn't seen any spirits in this world, but it was probably just a matter of time. He slowly approached it, getting ready to run if something happened. The blob turned abruptly and faced him, blinking its large red eyes. "Munna?" It had the "look" of a Pokemon to it, so Takashi relaxed a little.

"A floating Pokemon? I didn't know they could do that.." He glanced over at his Meowth, who seemed like a pretty typical cat so far. Who knew what he was hiding though? He turned his attention back to the Munna and reached out to pat it. Suddenly, it let out a loud cry and the bushes around him startled rustling. A sea of pink flooded his vision as an entire herd of the Pokemon burst out of the bushes and swarmed around him, clinging to him. He screamed and pushed them off, then turned tail and ran with the blobs hot in pursuit. "Help!"

Stop running and be still? That was easy to say when you weren't being chased by a cloud of pink Pokemon! "Y-you sure?" He panted out. Takashi wasn't going to have much of a choice soon, he was losing his breath and getting tired out fast. He slowed down and then stopped, hoping the other person knew what he was talking about and that he wasn't going to end up a snack for these things.

Zoroark caught up with Takashi first, stopping at his side and surveying the Munna with a confused tilt of her head. She was there to attack if needed be, but how was she supposed to attack when they were all crowded so close to the boy? Once he caught up as well, N stopped on the other side of the boy.

"Calm yourself. They aren't meant to be aggressive," N remarked to Takashi. "They were likely just startled by that sound from earlier."

Though, if the sound could make them aggressive... that would be an entirely different situation that would definitely warrant fleeing. Still, N dared to cautiously reach his hands out toward the Pokemon. "Munna, friends-- Is there something you need? This boy didn't hurt any of you, did he?"

Takashi moved closer to the man - in case the Munna decided to attack them. It seemed like he knew what he was doing, and so far the Pokemon weren't really trying to hurt them. "I didn't. I w-wouldn't do something like that. I saw one floating in the air and I wondered what it was, so I tried to touch it." It hadn't been his best idea. He watched nervously as N reached out to them himself.

N seemed to ignore Takashi's words, instead focusing on listening to the squeaking of the Munna.

"We don't mean you any harm," he offered, gingerly taking a step toward the Pokemon, arms outstretched at his sides, showing his lack of any sort of weapons.

The moment he got close, the Munna suddenly shifted and lunged forward all at once. Zoroark growled warningly and N gasped sharply, prepared for some sort of attack... but it didn't come. The Munna simply clung to his clothes or drifted around him. He stayed still, allowing them to clamber over him as they pleased.

"There, now. You weren't attacking at all, were you?" He smiled calmly as the Pokemon inspected him. He turned his head to look at Takashi, though his face was a bit obscured as a few Munna nosed at his wild hair. "They thought you were a threat. But there is nothing to be afraid of, see?" A few of the Munna floated away from him and closer to Takashi.

Takashi flinched when he saw the Munna lunge, expecting the worst. But...it didn't look like they were doing anything at all. Just clinging to him.

"They're actually kind of cute..." Takashi admitted, now that the threat of becoming Pokemon chow had passed. He held out his hand, not reaching to pat them, but letting them come over to him if they wanted to. His Meowth was staring at them curiously.

N took a small step back, giving the Munna more room as a few moved to meet Takashi's hand, inspecting it as they had N. Now, it seemed they were more curious than wary, not even vaguely hostile any longer.

"It is best to be more careful, when approaching a wild Pokemon," N started. Mini lecture time! "It is often difficult to tell exactly how they will react. Still, Pokemon never attack without good reason." At least, that is what he believes. As he continued, he reached up to pat the Munna himself. "Very recently, a strange sound drove all the Pokemon from the Dreamyard. It seems most of the Pokemon here are restless because of it."

"Oh? A strange sound?" Takashi patted a Munna near him and it made a noise that seemed to indicate that it was happy. "What do you think caused it?" Now he was a bit worried that herds of wild Pokemon were going to be out and about, attacking people.

"I don't know," he answered with a frown. "Most likely human activity of some sort. However, I went to the Dreamyard myself in search of some evidence, but I found nothing."

Literally nothing. Seeing the place entirely devoid of Pokemon was apparently quite unnerving to him. He looks a bit disturbed. "It is worrying, to say the least."

"That does sound bad..." Takashi agreed, patting another Munna that had clung to him. He looked a little hesitant for a moment, then spoke up again.

"Uh, well...I don't know much about this world, or the noise or anything like that, but...is there anything I can do to help?" He asked shyly. He may have been pretty new here, but he didn't like the idea of something happening to the Pokemon.

N looked almost surprised by the question, but pleasantly so. He smiled.

"I'm afraid not-- not at this moment, anyway," he replied. "Until more is found out about that sound, the best you can do to help is to be careful with any Pokemon that have fled the Dreamyard in search of safety. Still, I appreciate your concern for them."

Zoroark, relaxed now that she was sure she wouldn't be battling any time soon, moved up to sit at N's side. He stroked her head absentmindedly as he began to speak again. "My name is N. And this is my friend, Zoroark." Zoroark gives a small growl in greeting. "Who are you? I assume you are new to this sort of world."

Takashi returned the smile, "My name is Takashi, nice to meet you." He nodded in greeting to Zoroark. "And this here is Meowth." He reached up to pat the cat on his shoulder, who was looking pretty disinterested now that the action was over. "You're right, I am new to this world..." It felt a bit strange to say it out loud. "I'm not really sure how it happened. Are you from this world?"
