4th Planet from the Sun | Action

[Despite the blackout, Kariya's persisted in going out everyday to train, usually till near sundown. At the moment, as he dashes through the grass on Route 3, he is beginning to regret that.]

Suisei! Suisei, come on! Run!

[The Duskull behind them is looming, its red eye casting a glow across the grass in the night air. It's near pitch black now, and he's not too sure where he is, and, oh crap, he could swear the thing is floating after them just fast enough to stay in range, like some kind of horrible movie monster. He's trying to tell himself that it's just a Pokémon, but that stopped helping staunch the panic a few minutes back.

A lot of his team is in real need of a trip to a center to begin with, and, even if it is a Pokémon, what if it catches them?]


Faster!

[The Duskull gives a low, hungry-sounding moan. Kariya shrieks and tears onwards.]

....

[Some time later, there's an exhausted, absolutely nerve-shot boy huddled well away from the grass near the beginning of Route 3. He's begun to recognize Striaton in the distance, but for now he's too worn out to even bring himself to move.

There's a fifth occupied Pokéball resting at his belt.]


((OOC: Feel free to catch him before or after his fight with Duskull. Or in the middle of it, for that matter!))

Otogi was probably a dick and watched from the trees. As it is, look to the one beside you now-

"New member on your party then?" Otogi stop.

[Kirino got worried when Kariya didn't return before dark.

He got even more worried when it was still dark and Kariya hadn't returned. Eventually, Kirino gave up on waiting for the younger boy to get back and went out to search, his Mightyena staying near his side, and his Shuppet floating near his head, using Will-O-Wisp to light the way. When the group get to Route 3, Pochi darts on ahead, sniffing around.]


Kariya!

"Smells like a ghost."

Stop.

Grinning.

Now.

[Oh, thank god. He rushes over in the direction he heard Kariya's voice, Athos still hovering near his head and Pochi trotting over to join up with them.]

Kariya, are you all right?!

[Kirino gives Kariya a quick once-over, then nods and gives a bit of a sigh.]

Come on, let's head back. We shouldn't stay out here any longer than we have to.

"Indeed, there's been an odd increase in the ghost type population lately- perhaps it has something to do with the time of year," he adds with a shrug.

Hey now, don't you bite him you don't know where he's been

All of my Pokémon are in fairly good condition. I think we'll be all right. [Though, his eyes flick over his Shuppet.]

Athos, don't tire yourself out if you can't sustain that Will-O-Wisp.

[The puppet Pokémon gives a small sound of confirmation and hovers just ahead of the two boys to light the way.]

It's about a ten minute walk. And five more minutes to the Pokémon Center once we're actually in town.

Yeah. It probably would've felt pretty long anyway, I imagine. When the mind wants to play tricks on you...

[He just holds up his hands in a hopefully placating gesture at the glare, lowering them when Kariya's hands go into his pockets.]

Yeah? You'll have to show me later. [Kirino offers a small smile as he continues onward.

Do you really want to wait for however long until the power comes back on?

[Pfff.] ... Fair enough.
