EVENT POST - FLOCESSY SHEARING SEASON!

[united_mods]

 Step right up! As part of a welcome to the other-worlders who have reappeared, the farmers of Flocessy Ranch have opened their gates to a country fair! Aside from getting deals on woolen clothing, there's going to be hay rides, corn mazes, berry bobbing...

One of the gates is open to let people meet with the mareep there, and with all the excitement around it's impossible not to feel happy!

"HERDIEEEEER! OIIII, HERDIER! COME BOY!"

One of the farmers seems to be looking for the ranch's herdier, but surely that's nothing to worry about.

[[NOTE: The tags in this event post will NOT be grouped into one event, until entering a certain area; those who do so will be PM'd with the option of being entered into what will be posted as a group log in the final week of the month. Other than that, enjoy! Tags will come from both the Mod account, and the NPC account for Yuuma Tsukumo; otherwise, people are free to mingle!]]

"Easy..." She's not really confident in her own abilities but, she knows Jack is nearby.

She slides off of Zack. He steps forward and snarls warningly. Cloud steps up next to him, glaring.

Eiko has finally caught up but, Hazel motions her to stay back a little.

"I doubt this will be easy."

[aslla_jack]

"HN! Agreed!"

Before the grunt can do more than grin challengingly, the shadow comes closer, swooping down to land behind Hazel's pokemon with a leering glare--with the form of his more demonic self, feathered, serpentine body and blazing eyes, the grunt's smirk needless to say fades quickly.

"H... Hahh..."

"Are you ready to fight then?" Jack taunts, lifting his head as the grunt trembles.

"HAHHH! Like I'm fighting that sort of pokemon!" he shouts, tossing something at them as he bolts. The 'something' explodes with light, and the grunt fades with it. "I won't forget this... Consider this your warning! Team Plasma will return!"

"NGH--" SFFFF LIGHT--

[mediocrespells]

"Aah!" Being flash blinded was unexpected and not fun.

After she can see again the first thing she does is make sure all the Pokémon are accounted for.

"He ran away..." Not that she's surprised. Jack was pretty scary most of the time after all.

Zack paws at his face for a bit then starts sniffing the ground. Looks like he wants to give chase but...

"Zack, no. I don't think going after him would do much good." And they couldn't really know whether the grunt was entirely alone.

The Arcanine whines but, doesn't run off on his own.

[aslla_jack]

"Huh! Coward!" Jack have you seen a mirror as of late--

As it is, the Herdier limps up a little, sniffing around before thanking everyone in his language. Bullet, meanwhile, seems to spot something on the ground not far from Zack--'Something there?'

It certainly looks like there might be, given the light sparkle!

[mediocrespells]

Aw, poor puppy. Since it still seems a little hurt Hazel's going to check it over and heal whatever wounds it has. Minor injuries it looks like. She can handle a conversation while taking care of that.

"Uh..." Does she need to remind Jack that he's scary? Maybe. "I'm not really surprised that he ran."

Since the trainers seem distracted Zack paws at the shiny object a bit then picks it up. He goes over to sit next to Hazel and wait for a good time to give someone the thing.

[aslla_jack]

"Hn." Oh hush. "Well, I'll bring this guy back then..." Reiuniclus' healing combined with Hazel's seems to have brought the Herdier to full health--all that's left now is getting him back!

What Zack in the meanwhile has found, appears to be a TM... Perhaps a little too dirtied to read right now. They'll have to get it cleaned at a Pokemon center later.

[mediocrespells]

"Okay." Herdier safe. No one else hurt. Nothing else really needs to be said right now and time to go.

She turns to Zack to get ready for the trip and gets the TM dropped in her hands.

"A TM?" She doesn't let it delay her from getting on the Pokémon's back though. She's tired and it's not like it's going to disappear. If Jack wants to know where it came from they can talk on the way back. If he doesn't, well, she can get it cleaned up and ask him if he wants it later. "Let's just get back."
