Open Strike Of the Dark Legion

"All Leaders and Elites, return to base. There is more planning that needs to be done," said Titress over the radio.

But why? The fire was so pretty; why did they want to escape? But, oh well, orders were orders. She'd have to follow them if she wanted to be a Leader!

With that thought, Ember leapt off her windowsill and took off running into the night, following Titress.

Titress would surely be pleased with her now.
 
Bes slammed into his quarters. He was sure it had only been around ten or fifteen minutes since Titress's last broadcast, but he was also certain that he saw Argotem coming up from outside. How fast can one Marowak be, exactly? He glanced out the window, and confirmed his fears. Argotem was approaching. That was it. He'd have to go to Titress with his plan, it was the only way to ensure the safety of the others in the Legion. Forget that for a minute, it was the only way to ensure the safety of all other pokemon! It was the only way to ensure his own sanity. But, he'd have to train more first...
 
Kari stopped wriggling her paw around for a quick sleep.

The hole was big enough to fit two of her paws through.
 
Maruu had began his descent towards the end of the building when he was struck off balance by the stray Dark energy from the Salamence. The building had started ot collapse while he was still squirming to find a way off.

The others got away...Now as for me...

The Raichu sprung off and landed on his side beneath some debri. He was okay, just a bit stunned.
 
Glimmer walked along the dimly lit street calmly when he received the order to return to the base. Well, that worked out great, considering he was already headed back. He reached the entrance of the base and sat, resting his head on his paws. He would wait for the others here.

(Glimmer is as lazy as I am, with such a short post :p I promise the next one will be longer ^^)
 
"No I think he may have made it out." she said standing on the edge of the roof looking around. She saw the figure of a Raichu and it seemed to jump off the building. "Hey, Maruu, is that you?" she said into her device. "Are you alright?"
 
Maruu shook the remains off of his back when he heard a voice from his radio.

"Hey, Maruu, is that you?" bzzzt "Are you alright?"

Once he was back on his feet he stepped away from the clearing and held the radio to his face, "Yeah, I'm fine. Is everyone else with you?"
 
"If I get a leader position... Oh, I'll guarentee Trump Card and that pesky Maruu will be driven straight into the ground..." Hergal said to himself.
He arrived at the building, and entered. He walked through the building, basically pacing.
Titress seemed to change the meeting's destination each time... Where is it now?
 
"...Sorry, I guess I should've grabbed you or something, Maruu." Andromeda said, "My mistake."

She stretched out her wings.

"What do we do now?" she asked, "The base...it's ablaze."
 
Argotem was stalking around the corridors of the castle on his way to the Leaders meeting, when he saw Bes. With a small grin to himself, he sped up behind Bes, and slammed him into a wall.

"How are ya, master?" He prodded slyly. Bes moaned, and responded,

"I was fine up until a few seconds ago. What do you want now, Argotem?"

"Nothing, master. Just reminding you who's the more powerful ancient being around here."

"Leave me alone, Argotem, we already finalized this strife. Just go to your meeting and leave an old Pokemon to himself."

Argotem then laughed and let go of Bes. Chuckling to himself, he continued on his way.

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

Bes was floating down the hall, when he was brutally slammed into the wall by an unknown assailant.

"How are ya, master?" He prodded slyly. Argotem. Bes moaned, and responded,

"I was fine up until a few seconds ago. What do you want now, Argotem?"

"Nothing, master. Just reminding you who's the more powerful ancient being around here."

"Leave me alone, Argotem, we already finalized this strife. Just go to your meeting and leave an old Pokemon to himself."

Argotem then laughed and let go of Bes. While Argotem was floating further away, Bes was thinking of how his appointment with Titress couldn't come soon enough.
 
Hergal continued to pace, when he heard a slam down the corridor.
Bes and Argotem.
Of course.
Hergal ignored the two.
Let them handle their own problems.
 
Glimmer yamned and prowled into the building. He had watched from the shadows as others had entered, and as there were no cries of pain, he figured it was safe to enter. <yes, he's that paranoid >x]..> There was a loud thud down the hallway of someone hitting the wall and Glimmer sighed. You'd think they could keep the fighting outside of the base.

He turned and entered his room, pressing his shoulder into the button that slid the door shut and locked it. Home sweet home. He looked around. There wasn't much here, just a bed, a shelf full of berries and medicinal herbs, a pile of used TM's in the corner, the intercom in the ceiling with the respond button implanted in the bare white walls. A very empty room, simply for resting in. He stepped over a broken radio and examined the berries before taking a pecha berry lightly in his jaws.

His teeth sunk into the soft berry and sweet juice ran down his chin; the flavor bursting in his mouth like a kaleidoscope of sweetness. He wasn't worried about missing the meeting, as he munched on the berry. If they needed him or his opinion, they'd call him on the intercom. And Titress hadn't clarified whether or not Elites could attend this meeting or if it was strictly for the leaders. He yawned and waited for orders. He was bored and wanted something to do.
 
Titress landed on the ground outside the castle and looked at the doors. This architectural beauty was only one thing that showed her triumph, but that wasn't important. She slowly walked through the large door, only to see a familiar Hergal standing by. She showed a serious face when floating over.

"Hergal, glad to see you're here." She said with a very serious tone of voice. "I have a favor to ask you. Go and collect the Leaders and Elites and tell them to meet me in the meeting room on the second floor for very important business. Then you do the same."

Titress then floated towards a staircase down the hallway and went upstairs to meet them in the room, a long room with a large table made of black wood and black leather chairs surrounded it. She took a seat at the end of the table and waited.
 
Krika flew in Titress' wake, entering the castle through one of its windows. Once inside, he continued his flight, only pausing to avoid damaging Titress' precious castle. He knew that he needn't have bothered with such overt caution, but who knew what Titress considered damage to her property. The Dark Legion's leader was rather unpredictable, after all.

What a waste, he thought, flying through the hallway that lead to the conference room, what an ugly testament to what this is descending to. This Legion... well, I certainly know that this is not what I agreed to become a part of.

With that, he entered the conference room. Titress was already there, and Krika soon flew over to a spot closer to the beginning of the table, where one could have the door within easy access, and at the same time, not appear to be a coward.

This was Krika's designated position ever since he became a leader. The Salamence himself was not sure why he had this seat.

Settling down at his spot, Krika waited for the meeting to begin.
 
Having already known of this meeting, Argotem floated on in right after Krika, and sat down right next to Titress. This being his favorite seat, as he almost felt that he was the main leader. And he knew that he would be unopposed for the seat directly across form him, and the one next to him, because no one ever sat there anyway. grinning to himself, Argotem waited for the others.

((Is Bes going to be here? He's a second in command... I'm not sure if he would be included.))
 
Beauty had took flight quickly after Titress commanded, only giving a quick spiteful glance at her leader before floating away. She was quite annoyed at her cowardly action, calling off the fight. After quickly getting out of her sight, Ugly relaxed, letting the moonlight caress her face. The feel of that... it was wonderful. She took her time, letting the slight breeze soothe her concerns of her leader's weakness, leaving only a beautiful calm. If only every night was this calm and wonderful... nothing suited her name better.

She continued her trip happily, taking her time and genuinely enjoying herself. That didn't happen often.

Eventually, she got to the castle, her suspicions and annoyances returning and her joyous mood disappearing. She went to a random window, opened it, and flew in. She happened to unfortunately land right in the room with Titress and the others. Not really in the mood, she took her seat right across from her leader and glared at the froslass.
 
((( Yes, Bes should be there too, but I still have to wait for most of the Legion before the meeting can start)))
 
((Erm...should I come now, or should I wait for Hergal to come tell me there's a meeting?))
 
((Wait for Hergal- Argotem, Krika, and Ugly/Beauty appear to be intuitive of these things. A teeny bit of godmodding on our parts there, but. Sorry for that, Titress.))
