Legends of the Elemental Ones

He took out his Pokégear and dialed Goodwin. "Hello, Goodwin. Do you need any help with anything? Maybe help with the Elementals or something?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ellie looked around. Something not right was definately going on. She decided to proceed with caution. "My favorite is the Psychic-type, like Espio here.

<Aww, you're too kind.> Espio sarcastically telepathed to Ellie.

<That's not like you, Espio. You need to keep calm and quiet anyways, ic case someone accidentally realeases their powers...> Ellie realized she was floating about an inch off the ground. She quickly landed. <...like that...>

Way to go, Ellie. The impostor in here probably noticed.>

((DM EDIT: She's been floating for a few minutes.))

A grin spread across Zack's face, "Thank you, sir." he dodged around the girl who had just stepped through the door and dashed into his office. He grabbed his bag and left the building.

After walking for about five minutes he stopped outside a church and peered through the doorway. Franklin was chatting with someone inside and there were several trainers inside. 'Leave it to Franklin...' he continued walking down the street until he had done a loop of the block, he stepped behind the church and moved around it then ducked under a stained glass window and stopped. 'Here should be a good vantage point.' Blade sat down and watched the way they had come in case someone followed them.

---------------------------------

Blake caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of his eye, he turned his head but whoever it was had left.
 
"Huuuuurh. Kssssh." Was all that came from the Flareon, the gasmask muffling most of her voice. She wagged her tail and bumped the nose of her gasmasked face against Illiamna's muzzle gently.

Cherry smiled down at the Vaporeon for a moment, then scanned the room again. Most of the people seemed to be younger than her, and she chuckled a bit. She flipped her hair out of her face a bit.

"We're talking about your favourite type...? Mine's fire. My name's Cherry, nice to meet everyone." She said, voice not too loud, but strong and clear.
 
He'd seen it.

Arizona had seen, if only for a few seconds, one of the humans levitating on its own accord, shortly after she announced that she liked the Psychic-type of Pokemon.

Remembering what CT had told him, Arizona pulled away from the Church's window, and flapped his wings, producing a bright silver gust of wind. It would be one that would be easy to spot from across the City, whether one was a human or Pokemon.
----
Goodwin's thought were interrupted by the sound of his PokeGear. He looked down and was surprised to see that it was Gary Little, an employee that was off for today, that was calling.

He answered immediately. "Good day, Gary. I thought you had today-"

That's when CT and Washington became very, very tense. Both Pokemon shot toward the window, which hadn't been closed after Arizona left. Both of them floated outward, and that's when Goodwin saw the silver wind that had been brewing up.

It happened to be brewing up near the Church..

"Gary, you may search for the Elementals. I recommend that you start your search at the Church. I will meet you there myself."

He immediately disconnected, and turned to Washington and CT. He quickly climbed on top of Washington, and said: "Let's go. We have a service to attend."

Washington wasted no time in floating toward the Church.
----
Everything happened so quickly.

Andrew had been wondering how best to speak to this Frosslass when one of the normal windows shattered, and a silver gust began to fly through the opening. It didn't take long for Andrew to realize what had happened.

"Silver Wind," Lycis noted, "Something out there just used Silver Wind."

Andrew barely had time to react to that when another voice rang out.

This voice was one that Andrew knew well. It was a voice that he along with so many others had heard on public announcements.

It was the voice of Director David Goodwin.

And it was coming from outside the Church.

"Greetings, Elementals."

Gary turned off his Pokégear and hopped on his bike. The church wasn't too far away from where he lived. When he got there, he saw Goodwin already there. He stepped to the door, and looked up at everyone. Wait... isn't Ellie here? he thought right before he saw Ellie at the podium.

"Greetings, Elementals." he heard Goodwin say.

"Um, sir... my sister's in there... so if you do anything bad, please don't hurt her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Greetings, Elementals." she heard an all-too-familiar voice say, right before her brother appeared at the door. "CRAP!" she yelled. <Everyone, call out your Pokémon. Create a distraction, anything. We need to get out of here and somewhere safe. Fast.> she telepathed to the other Elemantals, calling out her Pokémon in response to het own orders. <Guys, create a distraction. Now.>

"Got it!" her Pokémon all responded at once, using various moves to make it certain there was escape.

"Silver Wind. Something just used Silver Wind."

"Huh?"

"Greeting, Elementals."

"Dammit, Goodwin found us..." Jonas said to himself.

"We're in trouble..." Zero replied.

Edit: Postninja'd.

Jonas decided to send out his others only if he needed to; Neon and Zero were his strongest, so they would be durable, and they had a big moveset, making them everything but limited.

"Neon, Zero, I'm sure you've been looking forward to this somehow. Do whatever you can to make a distraction- Nothing specific. Do whatever you can."
 
Illiamna was confused about the mask, but she wagged her tail in response. That's about the time someone came into the church saying, "Greetings, Elementals." She growled lowly. Would it be suspicious if she ran over to her trainer? It didn't matter, she had to get to Lucille! She rushed over to where Lucille was, wrapping her tail around her trainer's legs. "This is bad!" she exclaimed, looking at Lucille.

Her whole body was suddenly hot. She didn't know what to do, how did their cover get blown? If she stayed where she was, would they think she was an Elemental? "I don't..." Lucille started. Then it hit her, at least, what she thought was true. She stared at Franklin, her eyes burning. Was it... him? Did he expose them all? she thought, not wanting to believe it was true. But she couldn't exactly deny it either. And then she heard the girl saying they needed to create a distraction. "Illi, you know what to do."

Illiamna nodded, and then started using different moves.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! Hailey was excited on the inside, but she didn't show it on the outside. She calmly left his office, just about the time she heard him say something about the church. She quickly burst into a run, she didn't want to miss anything. "I'm... so... close," she said, panting in between her pauses. These heels aren't making it easy either!

She finally burst through the doors of the church to see quite a scene. There were people everywhere. Were they all Elementals? But Hailey couldn't focus of the people, she was too busy worrying that she'd get hit from the Pokemon attacks.
 
Blake heard the voice from outside, he knew something bad was bout to happen. 'Oh shit!' he returned Froslass to her pokeball then turned to Dusklops, We need to get out of here. Dusklops nodded, but we cant just leave these people here. Blake nodded, he and Fantom could easily get out but he didn't think the others could as easily. He rubbed his temples in thought. 'I hope I dont give myself away here. not like last time...'

---------------------------------------------

A silver wind blew across the path Zack had taken. "Greetings, Elementals."
'That was Goodwin' he reached for a green and black pokeball(Duskball) on his belt and released a purple spiked pokemon, "Doom, go in and keep an eye on things, make sure they don't escape," the Haunter nodded and phased through the wall. Zack and Blade ran about to the front of the building but before they got there a large Black blob appeared in front of him and reshaped itself into a Charizard. The Charizard opened its mouth and released a silent roar. "What the..? Blade, Psycho cut!" Blade leaped forward and swung down but the blade slid harmlessly through the pokemon and it vanished. 'Illusions?' Zack continued around the side of the building and around to the front.

((Illusory pokemon, not always a good thing. Especially when Blake is stressed, feel free to have illusions appear to your characters. Up to you))
 
"If your sister is not an Elemental, then she has nothing to fear. If she is among them... I am sorry, but the Law is clear."

It was then that one of the Elementals deployed all of her Pokemon, and they began to use their various attacks. Goodwin sighed. "I expected as much."

He then dropped three more pokeballs. The first to open released Oregon the Tyranitar.

As the others opened and sent out Delaware the Clefable and Iowa the Magnezone, Goodwin simply pointed at the Church and stated: "Attack."
----
Andrew was rooted to the spot in fear. Ever since he'd been chased out of his own home, he'd made escaping the Government a top priority. He'd always avoided speaking to anyone, so as to not attract the attention of the Government. He'd kept to a life of secrecy.

And now...

"Andrew!" Lycis snapped, "You heard the girl! Send out all of your pokemon!"

Slowly, as if in a trance, Andrew picked up a pokeball from his belt, and threw it. Once it opened, a Dragonite, whom he called Eltanin, burst out.

That was about when the Tyranitar appeared, and the moment it did so, a wind blew from behind the behemoth. As the wind blew, it brought sand. This was only to be expected, as the Sand Stream power of Tyranitar took effect instantly.

"Lycis," Andrew said, still shocked, "Get the Tyranitar with Ice Punch. Eltanin, get ready with Dragon Dance."

He slowly dropped another one, deploying his Steelix, Kalhai.

"Kalhai, cover us with Iron Tail. You can resist the Sandstorm, so you should be able to provide protection.

"Get ready to move. We need to escape somehow."
----
Goodwin watched as the Elementals began to start attacking with their varying pokemon. They were panicked from Goodwin's sudden appearance, no doubt, and that's what made them all the easier to target.

"Iowa," Goodwin ordered, "Magnet Rise. CT, Thunderbolt. Delaware, Protect. You'll need to buy time for your conditions."

CT was the first to comply, firing off a stream of electricity randomly into the Church.

<Okay, create distractions, like Explosions or something. Something to get us out of here unnoticed.> Ellie telepathed. "Raiden, Flash!" she yelled as her Raichu set off a blast of light, blinding the mojority of the people. <Everyone who can, break a window or something while everyone's blinded and get out!>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'm pretty sure she's not..." Gary said before he reailzed Ellie was fighting... for the other team. The Elementals. "No, no, no..." he muttered to himself.
 
Jonas looked around, and noticed a hole in the wall, most likely from a stray attack.

"C'mon, guys, we're escaping!" Jonas' Pokemon suddenly stopped and followed him through the hole.

"Let's just see if the others get out..."
 
Harhar battlescene! WHOO

~~~

There were several murmers around the church as a voice rang out "Greetings, Elementals."
"Damn!" Jake quickly called his Pokémon out. "Guys, we need to get out, now! Bouncer, Verdian, Bannanaphone, use Brick Break, Energy Ball and Strength to break down the wall. Boom Boom, Disco, Plume, use Protect on the windows and doors!"

Bouncer and Bannanphone slammed into a wall, causing it to shake. A ball of natural energy smashed into the wall, making a small crack. Meanwhile, the broken window and the door were covered with shields. A sandstorm suddenly whipped up and Pokémon were called out. "Boom Boom, get the other elementals over here, now! Keep going, guys!"
Finally, the brick wall gave way and collapsed. "Come on everyone!" Jake yelled, hoping over the rubble.

~~~

Unfortunately, Lucille was one of those people who was temporarily blinded by the flash. She couldn't see anything, she didn't know what was happening! Illiamna stopped, seeing as something was wrong with her trainer. It was the way Lucille was trying to feel around for something that she recognized. The Vaporeon pushed her muzzle into her legs, trying to show her which direction to go.

Lucille's vision was slowly coming back, but she could only see a little bit out of the corner of her eye. With the help of Illiamna, she made it to the wall, but she couldn't tell where a window was at all. Ugh! What is happening?! she thought, frustrated and slightly frantic.
-----------------------------------------
Hailey had also seen the flash of light and was also blinded. She managed to grab a Pokeball from her pocket and let out one of her Pokemon. She couldn't tell which one it was until she reached out to feel. It felt fuzzy, so she deduced it must be Fira.
 
"Then you have your orders," Goodwin said, "The Elementals are to be captured, Dead or Ali-"

A sudden, bright flash cut him off. Even outside the Church, he had to shield his eyes form the glare. Oregon and CT also moved backward, away from the light.

Despite this, Goodwin was pleased to see that Iowa had successfully used Magnet Rise, and now he along with Washington and CT were floating. They were ready

"CT, Hydro Pump. Oregon, Earthquake. Washington... Bullet Punch."
----
"Wait!" Andrew yelled, even as the flash took effect. With the sudden bright light, Lycis stopped her ice Punch short, while Kalhai's Iron Tail struck one of the interior sides of the Church, causing the structure to rumble.

"I don't think any of us can see!" Andrew yelled over the ensuing chaos. The Sandstorm was building up, and he could see Eltanin being pelted by the harsh sand.

"This isn't helping! And besides, we still need to deal with-"

He was cut off as the ground began to shake. As far as he could tell, Kalhai was hit harsh by the sudden Earthquake, but Andrew couldn't see where the Steelix had been flung after the shockwave. Lycis let out a sudden cry of pain, and Andrew realized with a dawning horror that whatever had just happened, something terrible had hit her.

"Lycis? Lycis?!"

"Greetings, Elementals."

Cherry spun at the sudden interruption, and Sammy's head whipped around as well, another 'kssssh' of air escaping coming from her. Cherry's hand was at her belt even before the mental plea came to her, and she plucked three Pokeballs from the five occupied ones there. The Pokemon inside emerged in a burst of light; a Riolu, Clefable, and Mismagius materialized next to Cherry, whose mane was starting to crackle with flame.

"Okay guys, this is gunna be a difficult one, but we've been through worse. Jody, set up a Double Team. Emil, we need you in medic-mode; anyone gets hurt, you handle it. Sable, smash the nearest window for escape. Sammy, Fire Spin; cut off the building's access for the Govvies," She ordered, calm and collected.

The Flareon was the first to react, spouting a steam of fire as she charged out the door, laying the Fire Spin around the attackers as best she could. She hissed at them, mane blazing bright. The Mismagius cackled and soon had two more clones appeared, and the three ghost-types hovered over Sammy.

Cherry, following her Riolu and with the Clefable trailing her, rushed to a window, trying to not fall as the ground shook violently. Sable planted a powerful kick to it, and it shattered.

"Okay! Let's go!"
 
Blake snapped out of his thought and clicked his fingers. He looked up and pulled a duskball from his belt, "Sable, Dig!" a Sableye appeared and upon landing dug a wide hole down into the floor. "Go, Froslass" without unclipping the pokeball from his belt he sent out his Froslass, Create Illusions of us all sneaking out through the windows, once everyone is out follow me, ok? Arctica nodded, Got it! he turned to Dusklops, Fantom, I need you to use protect on the doorway so we have a safe way, okay? Dusklops nodded and floated to a spot near the doorway and began to weave a shield of energy over the doorway as a bright flash filled the room. Blake covered his eyes.

-----------------------------------

Doom watched as a Sableye dug a hole and was about to attack when he noticed the form in the corner, 'Zack?' he thought he looked out the door and there was Zack again, 'What the hell?' it floated over to the trainer he thought was Zack on the outside of the church, evading the battle going on.

Zack watched Doom float out of the church with a puzzled look on his face, "What is it?" Doom just shook its head and returned itself to its pokeball. "Okay.. that was weird," suddenly a bright flash shone from the church and he was forced to cover his eyes.
 
The ring of fire surrounded the Church, giving a moments protection before the Hydro Pump fired by CT doused the Fire Spin.

Arizona had seen this, having flown away from the Church when the fire had appeared. He had also seen something that his Master had not: in the flash-blinded Church, in which the glow was slowly fading, one of the Elementals, one that had a Vaporeon near a wall, nearby another, who was nearby a Weavile that was nearly knocked out.

This will do, Arizona thought. The Yanmega then let off a high-pitched screech, on that caused several windows to fragment, but it also would alert the nearby to the trapped Elementals.
----
"Lycis?! Where are you?"

As the glow began to fade, Andrew began to see the Church around him again, which had taken a harsh blow from the Earthquake.

As had Lycs, as Andrew saw. The Weavile had been knocked over, and, from the looks of things, been struck by several pieces of debris from when Kalhai had hit the side. As for Kalhai, the Steelix looked worn down, but quickly got back up once it saw the wounded Lycis.

"We need to get going," Andrew said, recalling the Steelix, "This is getting very bad, very quickly. Eltanin, get ready to move."

Andrew quickly looked around the Church for any sign of escape, and that's when he saw Lucielle, who, along with her Vaporeon, were also looking for an escape route.

Andrew started toward her, hoping to find an escape route, when the windows above him suddenly exploded, raining shattered glass down. Moments after that, the wall right near the entrance exploded, and Andrew saw the reason why:

Goodwin's Metagross had opened a route to escape with its Bullet Punch, but it had also given room for Government pokemon to enter.

Jake dived out from the church as a heap of explosions rattled it."Oh man, this is bad!" He ducked back behind the rubble as a man on a Rapidash rode up. The horse ran straight past him. "Thank Arceus." He turned around and counted his Pokémon. Only five. He stuck his head inside the church, but he couldn't see Boom Boom. "Boom Boom, get back here, tell them through telepathy!" The Eggplant ran through the door.
"Sorry" He mumbled "I got caught up... I'll tell them" He closed his eyes.
<All elementals who arn't outside, there is an exit in the back corner of the church>

~~~

Cory rode up to the church as quickly as he could from Veilstone City. When he hopped off, the church was in ruins. "Ahh... that's not good. Apocalypse, go in through the wall. Rairai, Hax, go with him. Draco, Torchie, Halo, with me. The Dragonite landed and the Blaziken hopped off his back. The man dismounted Halo the Rapidash and went inside via a broken window. His Aggron, Apocalypse, smashed through the opposite wall. "Guys, block all entrances, now!" Halo and Rairai both went to the front, Draco flew up and landed on the rafters, Torchie and Apocalypse both went to a large hole in the wall, and Hax simply hovered over Cory's shoulders.

~~~

Oh yeah, in the OOC thread, the link to Zach's profile and the link to Cory's profile are both post 40, which isn't either signup form. You may wanna fix that
 
Lucille's vision had half-returned. She was still seeing dark spots that still impaired her vision. She heard the sharp sound of the windows shattering, so she ducked her head as the glass flew down. Illiamna rushed towards Andrew, tugging at him gently. "Help her," she hissed, not knowing whether he could understand her or not. Then she quickly rushed back to Lucille. "Hurry, there's a broken window near you, try to go through it if you can see."

Lucille felt her way to the window, but it was the wrong one. This window had a partially cracked pane, so she tried using her weight to break it. She stepped back a few steps, and then rushed through the pane. The glass broke, and half of her body was outside of the church. Illiamna was still inside trying to push her legs through.
--------------------------------
Hailey's vision had almost completely been restored. She grabbed all her Pokeballs and let all of her Pokemon out. "Try to make sure they don't escape!" she commanded. Fira immediately rushed after the first Elemental she could find.
 
Andrew heard the signal, but at the same time, he saw the Metagross charge at Lucielle, who was still trying to escape.

Thinking quickly, he deposited the wounded Lycis in front of Eltanin, and tossed another pokeball, this one containing Volantis, his Manectric. The Manectric dove in front of the Metagross as it unleashed a Thunderpunch at Lucielle's Vaporeon. The Punch sent Volantis back a few meters, but did not deter it from unleashing an electrical blast of its own.

That was when several new pokemon landed in front of all the exits, sans the one Lucielle was trying to get out of, which the Metagross was slowly advancing towards.

"Eltanin, get that Metagross away!" Andrew yelled, "Get rid of-"

A Houndoom landed on top of Andrew before he could finish the statement. Andrew had most of the wind knocked out of him by the attack, but still managed to croak: "protect them both, Eltanin. Get Lycis out of here and protect Lucielle."
