Open Spirits return...

"Training." Edward said simply, trotting to catch up with Halan, rubbing affectionately against his legs. "It's been forever since we've seen each other, eh?"
 
Halan reaches down and pets the fur on Ed's head as they walk, a soft smile on his face.

"Indeed it has. It's been too long"

He looks ahead at where the camp ground laid, counting the members silently in his head.

"I'm glad that you decided to do some training. Maybe you'll stand a chance against me now....maybe"

He recounts the number in his head, finding it off.

Someone is missing...
 
Vanish woke up next to the other Pokémon.

"How long was I asleep?" he wondered. "Gah... not much of a help to the team while I'm asleep."
 
Derish came out of the trees into camp. He was obvouisly under much stress. "The others are waiting for us in the trees." He went around and nudged everyone to wake them up.
 
"Okay, so I WAS lying, but it doesn't matter. Like I said, it's personal." And besides, I only have a grudge with ONE of them.
Xhan entered the camp site, and his head immediatley began to hurt again. He restrained himself from rubbing his head, and moved some rocks aside, allowing his enough room to lay down comfortabley on the ground. He gathered his scarf around him tighter, and stared up at the stars. There weren't any clouds in sight, and there was a full moon. Xhan pictured the lake he had woken up next to, and considered going there for the night. But there was already a fire going here, and he was pretty sure that the group was realtively tired. An idea popped into his head. Once everyone's awake, I'll tell them their jobs...
 
((Again i say it was not my fault i was gone))

A figure suddenly floated into the area and fall onto the ground, knocked out.
 
Moon soon noticed that his attempts at escape were useless as he began to weaken. His struggling and attacking at the walls of the sphere became weaker as he became more exhausted. I-I can't give up! he thought, with one last attempt to break free . . .

((Come on! Will someone even attempt to help him? It seems all my posts are being ignored now as the focus turns to Xhan. The other characters are still here!))
 
((I'll do it, if no one else will.))

Amaryll's ears perked up as she heard what sounded like a struggle. She followed the sound to see a human walking away, clutching a small dark ball in his hands.

"Oh no..." she whispered. She had heard of this kind of thing happening, but had never seen it. Gritting her teeth, she decided she would take action. She closed her eyes and concentrated as a glittering powder was emitted from the leaf on her head. The human sniffed the air and felt his eyes droop. He soon fell unconscious, dropping to the ground as the ball rolled out of his hand. Gingerly picking it up in her mouth, Amaryll carried it back to the camp.

((Whoops...sorry. I'll edit my post accordingly.

Also, I kind of got it over with kind of quickly. There's too much going on, and I'm having a really hard time keeping up. @_@))

Halan hears a commotion from the gang. He enters the camp ground and sees that indeed, one of the members were missing. He then hears the cry for help.

Why can't things be calm now a days?

He makes his way to where the call came from, then sees a ball laying on the ground and one of the members slashing at it. He kneels down and studies the ball silently.

"...you know..you could push the release button. If you stop slashing, I'll open it...if I can, Young one"
 
"BLEAGH!!!!" Xhan scrambled to his feet, and followed the sound of the voice. He heard Halan talking about a release button of some sort, and just stared at the ball. What's a release button? He wondered.
 
Angelo struggled to float back up and then he looked around, Seeing xhan he floated over to him and knocked him on the head. "What do you think you're doing leaving me in there all alone? I could have been killed!"
 
Amaryll flipped the ball around with her paw, studying it for any sign of a release button. Her paw hit a small raised area and the ball doubled in size.

"Oh!" she said in surprise. "Hey, it did something!"
 
Xhan screamed in surprise, and jumped back. ".... Oh... Angelo... I could have died if you had yelled that as loud as possible. Besides, everyone was getting impatient, and I knew you'd be able to find your way back." Inwardly, Xhan sighed in relief. Who else could translate for us?
 
Halan chuckles, taking the ball in his paw. He pats the young Amaryll's head, gripping the ball in his paw.

"You've enlarged the ball. Now I'll relese the one caught within it."

He holds out the ball and presses the button once more, a flash of red light shooting out of the balls center, turning into a vague form of a pokemon. He then chuckles, tossing the empty ball in the air.

"There you go, children"
 
"Wow.... That's very... Strange...." Xhan had nothing else to say... Except, "So, to humans, we're just beasts who can be turned into dust and back, and fight for them?"
 
Halan turns to Xhan and sighs, shaking his head.

"No Xhan...well, ok, to some we are. But to others we are friends and family. They help us grow stronger and we help them achieve their goals. Both work together to gain what each are looking for in the world. And I might point this out that for our kind to evolve, human's are the ones that can do that for us."
 
"Okay, I was just wondering." Satisfied, Xhan almost turned back to and went to sleep, but just stayed where he was to see if the pokemon was okay.
 
Firebird flapped her wings furiously, gazing at the horizon. "I better be falling asleep... will we be leaving yet?" Her orange wings were a blazing blur as she flew higher, then dropped, flew higher, then dropped. "Sorry, I needed to get that out of my system."
