EVENT POST

[united_mods]

[It's a rather calm day, for anybody involved in the Badge or Ribbon Quest. At least, it seems that way for those not in Pinwheel Forest, where the gym leaders are deep in the forest. The forest is deep and dangerous, and they've been battling though it for this time. One of them looking for the missing skull, the other looking for the cause, for the terrified but evolved bugs and others.

But, of course, this is meant to be a secret.
However... one of their Xtransievers activated, as the battle continued - on all networks.

So! The audio message!]

L-Lenora! If I do not make our way out of this... please, promise me...

Quiet, Burgh! Of course we'll calm this... wait. I think that's the one.

It appears so... I think this is the scared creature of the forest. If we calm this one, the others - it's standing, Lenora! Get back - I know this forest much better. It shall not attack me.

And you were just sobbing. Leave it to me.

[And then, an inhuman roar, before the beast seemingly tackles the one who has the Xtransiever, as they let out a scream. The audio cuts out, replaced by a strange tone, and a message.]

WARNING. XTRANSIEVER NUMBER 08107 IS OUT OF ORDER. LAST KNOWN LOCATION: PINWHEEL INTERIOR.

[Oh... oh dear.

OOC: Okay! So this is the start of the event! I'll set up two threads now, one for transport and one for entering the forest. Soon, I'll set up a thread for actually going though the forest - but not straight away.]

Sephiroth marginally relaxes his stance and half turns away from Virizion.

"You are not just a dumb, violent beast." Nothing like the monsters in his world.

He's ready in case it still decides to attack. Just not as obviously.

"You must understand by now that we are not all like the ones who injured you. There is no honor in continuing to lash out." Honor... he was starting to sound like Angeal. Too many dreams of times past lately, he supposed.

Did Pokémon even understand honor? Most likely. If they could appreciate poetry, why not?

LOKI I'M NOT SURE IF THERE ARE ACTUALLY PLASMA MEMBERS AT THIS POINT???

[>You wonder what could've caused this incident in the first place. Could the culprit be nearby in any case?]

Do you think we could find the people who did this from the direction it came from?

[>So you suggest]

Loki went far ahead; I checked, he got the OKAY to find some mauled grunts haha. xD

[used_frustration]

Ryuzaki swallowed, eyeing the beast before them with caution but otherwise attempting to seem less threatening.

As it were, he turns to Yu. "Most likely- but then, that involves getting around the thing..." And he's not entirely sure how well that will go.

Hazel probably would have just stood there waiting for the others to take care of things. If she hadn't noticed that Loki was gone.

She looked around to make sure she wasn't mistaken. Behind? Up? Nope, can't see him anywhere. Cloud seems to have an idea where to look and starts further into the woods when he realizes she wants to look for the boy.

She'll just follow her pokémon into the woods. She's not really paying attention to the fact that her current path would lead her around the Virizion. As long as it doesn't notice and decide not to let her anyway.

Has anyone even noticed that she's started wandering off?

Well okay I guess that works.

"W-well it calmed down so it's alright!" Estelle pouted at Sephiroth, before approaching Virizion. Not... too close though.

"Um... I'm glad you're alright now, but we're looking for two people who tried to calm all the Pokemon down! D-do you know where we should start looking?" Estelle inquired to the legendary, her Audino somehow translating the words over just in case.

[united_mods]

"Vrriiiiiii..." The pokemon gives a low sound, still staring down the party of people before it. In the end however, as the Audino speaks, it narrows its eyes before stepping aside.

You may pass in this direction, is what seems to be the message. But it will not let you take the other path, behind it. "Zzzn..!"

[brightvesperia]

"O-okay everyone! L-let's go figure out what's up!" Estelle proposed, curtsying to Virizion and smiling in thanks as she and her Audino went deeper into the forest.
