PMD Rescuers of the World

The little Totodile grinned as his teeth sank into the Pikachu’s tail. It tasted so good, he didn’t really want to let go. The Pikachu was obviously shocked, calling him “Wonders” as it swiftly turned to him, and thankfully not shocking him. His mother had warned him about that.

“Who’s Wonders?” said the Totodile still biting into the tail, “My name is Deadroth! And your tail tastes delicious!”

Deadroth smiled, his jaws still locked onto the Pikachu’s tail. He didn’t even think about how the Pikachu would respond, for all he wanted to do was savor the moment while it lasted. It was probably only a matter of time before he would get zapped anyway.

“Um… okay.” Shock said, looking at Deadroth oddly. Either Wonders really is an odd Totodile, or this Totodile is odd. Well, actually, both of them could be odd. Hey… did he hear about the stones? Shock asked herself, not really noticing her tail. “Deadroth, have you heard of the 8 stones of destiny?” Shock asked, remembering he was still biting her tail. She tried to shake him off a little as she asked, but then she remembered what her friend told her about a Totodile’s grip. Oh yeah… Well, as long as he doesn’t eat me… Shock thought.

As she swung her tail in a futile attempt to get him to let go, Deadroth tightened his grip. “Stones of Destiny? What are those?” he asked, trying to picture them in his mind, “I think my papa used to talk about them, but I don’t really remember…”

As he sat there wondering about the subject (still with the Pikachu’s tail in his mouth), the little Totodile couldn’t help but feel that he had heard about them somewhere. Perhaps it was something his parents told him? They used to tell him stories about faraway lands and rare treasures, but he never heard any of it outside of their home and they always warned him that his place was at the village and not out chasing fantasies.

Well I’m not home anymore am I? he thought to himself, They never told me what I should do if I had no home to go to.

“Well, Rescue Teams have been informed of the possible location of one of these stones, being here, at Flaming doom. I was thinking since I’m here all alone, and you don’t seem too keen on letting go of my tail, maybe you could help me find it!” Shock exclaimed
I’m not sure how useful he’d be, but anything’s better than traveling all alone in a dangerous place. Even traveling with Wonders was fun. Well, I can’t keep pondering about this for much longer… Xyris may be closing in, and we don’t have much time to go. Shock thought.

OOC: Whoa, you guys started this RP, alright. oO I’ll try to jump in, somehow… xD

The little riolu cracked his eyes open slightly, the harsh rays of the sun burning his fragile body. Slightly disturbed from the heat, the fighting-type propped himself up and instantly began looking around frantically. Where was he? He appeared to be…on the shore of an island! But how did he get there?

He didn’t remember anything from the night before. In fact, he never remembered anything during the night of the full moon. Some phrases of words went through his head, words that he never remembered hearing but they stuck to his mind. He did not recognise the voices, but he knew it had to do with whatever always happened to him during the full moon. For some reason, though he could never remember anything, there seemed to be a couple words, maybe tiny visions of memories stuck in his brain - none of which that ever answered any questions most of the time. He closed his eyes again slowly and tried to concentrate on the words going through his mind.

It’s too dangerous…we can’t…what do we…

Sleep powder…effect doesn’t last long…must hurry…

Where…leave body…?

Anywhere…away from here…somewhere…far away…

Chah’s eyes snapped back open as the rest faded away. Something about sleep powder…was he put to sleep? And somebody took him away? Was he banished to this island? But…why would someone want to banish him? It had to do with what happened during the full moon. He just wished he knew what it was. He had heard of ghost pokemon that can sometimes take control of one’s body, maybe that was it. But what did they have against him?

Tired of all the questions, the riolu decided to make for the best of his situation. A volcano from far away crackled and he sighed. “Terrific. A volcano. Something tells me I’m going to have a great time here.” he muttered sarcastically. “I wonder if there’s even any life here in this desolated area? I’m doomed. I must’ve done something really bad to deserve this…”

Just as he said this, his aura radar flickered on and his heart nearly stopped in his chest. There were other pokemon around the radius in which he stood, he could sense it. The auras he caught onto shared the characteristics of an electric-type and a water-type. Hmm…maybe these pokemon could clear things up for him.

After wiping some sand from off of himself, Chah began tracking with the use of his aura, carefully scanning the area for the pokemon he was seeking.

“flaming doom? hm, sounds flamey.” Said a dragonair, walking, erm, slithering, through a the town. Rumors spread quickly, after all.

OOC: Well, at least each of us had a chance to post something- big or small- that’s a part of this roleplay. Well, let’s hope that more people join this roleplay so we can have more fun!

Deadroth’s eyes began to widen in excitment when the Pikachu mentioned that one of the stones could be found here. Even better, she wanted him to come with her to find it!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy! The Totodile couldn’t stop repeating in his head, A treasure hunt! And I get to do it with a new friend too!

Now far too excited to contain himself, Deadroth let go of the Pikachu’s tail and started dancing around repeating “A treasure hunt!” over and over again. This was the first time anyone had ever offered to take him on an adventure, not to mention the first time somebody didn’t respond violently to his tail-nipping antics over his five years in life. The only other pokemon that did so was a Tyranitar, although that was most likely because it didn’t even feel it.

After a short period of time, the Totodile stopped dancing around and stood in front of the Pikachu. She was quite a bit bigger than he was, not counting her ears, and certainly a lot tougher. “What’s you name?” he asked, looking at her with his gleaming brown eyes.

The dragonair slithered to a group with an exited totodile.

“a treasure hunt?” Said the dragonair, coming next to them.

“of what sort?”

Shock noticed that suddenly Pokemon started appearing around the island, noticing a Riolu and a Dragonair appearing quickly, along with other Pokemon from rescue teams. But She could hardly believe that someone wanted to explore with her. And even was excited about it. And before she knew it, she was blown from her thoughts with two questions.
“For you, Deadroth, my name is Shock. For you, Dragonair, me and Deadroth are going to go together to find a stone of Destiny here. Did you hear about that?” Shock asked. One second it’s peaceful, and the next it’s chaotic… And this is OUTSIDE the force-field around the volcano. Shock thought to herself.

“stone of destiny? sound very intresting.”

OOC: Wow… lots of short posts. I guess that’s what happens when you try to RP a conversation between characters. By the way, I like details, so please don’t mind if I start blurting out details about your character’s looks. It’s all coming from Deadroth’s perspective ^_^;

“Shock…” the Totodile repeated, “That’s easy to remember! Nice to meet ya Shocky!”

Deadroth began bouncing around again when he noticed the two other pokemon that had come to meet them. One was a Riolu, about the same size as he was by the looks of it, and the other was a pokemon he had certainly never seen before. He instantly stopped bouncing and examined its features. Its head was crowned with what looked like tiny wings, with a horn of its forehead to boot. The smooth blue serpent also had a dark blue orb that protruded from its neck, and two more that seemed attached to its tail like a rattle. Shock had called it a Dragonair and he stored it in his memory, but he couldn’t take his eyes off of that perfectly smooth tail…

“So beautiful… it looks so tasty…” said the Totodile unconsciously, impulsively moving closer to the Dragonair. His mouth opening slightly with every step, anxiously awaiting the moment to bite down. Without another thought, moving only by instinct, Deadroth lunged forward at the Dragonair’s tail with his jaws eagerly awaiting their prize.

The dragonair, noticing this, moved her tail so that the totodile would bite the little blue balls on the tail.

“… i’ll guess you like to bite things.”

Deadroth’s teeth made contact with the solid blue orbs at the end of the Dragonair’s tail. For most pokemon, it would have been painful, but he enjoyed the sensation. The orbs themselves didn’t really have any taste to them, but they felt good to grip his teeth against. As he lay slumped on the floor, Deadroth was enjoying what he would consider one of the happiest moments of his life. He didn’t even hear the Dragonair’s comment. All he could think about was his new friend and the delicious tail he had locked in his jaws.

“You can help me and Deadroth find the stone if you want. Also, what is that Riolu doing?” Shock asked aloud.

“Yes, what is that Riolu doing? and could come off my tail?”

OOC: Wow, fast RP. o_O Weird transition from CE…

It didn’t take long for Chah to discover what seemed to be a pikachu and a totodile. Oh, and a dragonair. This made Chah confused. How had he not sensed the dragon-type’s aura? It seemed, waking up in the middle of a foreign land had made him more delusional than he had first come to accept.

Apparently, the threesome had noticed him arrive although he had done so rather stealthily. He wasn’t sure when it was that they noticed, but he had been there long enough to eavesdrop a bit on the conversation…and now, having heard the pikachu note that he was standing there, the fact that he had been noticed after all was confirmed. So, Shock and Deadroth, eh? He hadn’t heard much, but apparently these two were searching for some kind of stone or stones…Destiny Stone, if he heard correctly. He was a bit curious as to what the intentions of these pokemon were, but he decided to let the dragonair question for him. Apparently, the dragon-type had no idea what was going on either, so at least he wasn’t alone.

After leaning silently against the tree for a while, Chah decided to finally speak - after all, they had noticed his arrival anyway, so he had no cover to be blown. “So, a stone of destiny, eh?” he quired, smirking slightly at the sound of it. “Sounds like some sort of a gimmick. Did someone set you guys up to this?” He said his last line with a hint of humour to let the others know he was merely joking with them. He looked over toward the totodile, who was busy latching onto the dragonair’s tail and chuckled a little. Then, he looked back toward the pikachu, who he had heard introduce herself as Shock. “Well, I hate to intrude and all, but I’m quite sure I heard you say something about a stone of…destiny, am I right? Is that what you guys are doing here? Looking for some kind of stone?”

timeskips from this user’s last post

Darien: According to my research, the stone should be here. Now we should get going Serena-Serena?

Serena: Ssh! They’re discussing the stone over there. Closer, closer-OH MY GOSH! trips

Darien: facepalm

OOC: I mite use Rini, I mite not. Depends on teh posts.

“hello, yes, i think that’s what they are doing. anyway, shalln’t we introduce ourselves?”

Pikachu and Marill were now floating in an inflatable raft on the ocean. Pikachu had convinced the Tanoby Town’s fortune teller to let him borrow it. Then, they’d set off to the beach, which wasn’t that far off. After Marill had gotten the thing inflated, they had set off. And now they were adrift, with only their map and supply bag.
" Well this was pretty stupid!," Marill commented. " Why didn’t you ask to borrow any oars?! How are we supposed to steer this thing?!!"
" I didn’t think he had any oars," Pikachu answered. He looked over the map. " Besides. We’re floating in the general direction of Flaming Doom, aren’t we?"
Marill snatched the map away from him and inspected it. " No. We’re on a direct course for Poke-Paradise Island."
" Oh?," Pikachu asked, taking a nerveous step back from Marill. " Ahaha, I didn’t notice."
" That’s not funny," Marill said. " We need to get to Flaming Doom!"
" M-must we?," Pikachu asked, fear returning to his voice. " I… I mean, well… It’s called Flaming DOOM for crying out loud!!"
" Calm yourelf," Marill said, annoyance now clearly audible in his voice. " Look, we have to get to Flaming Doom before Xyris does. It’s been an hour at least since I sent out word. More of our allies might be there already."
" Oh fine," Pikachu said. " Veinta." A strong wind current suddenly pushed their raft on course for Flaming Doom. " There."
" Hey, something just occured to me," Marill said.
" Oh? What’s that?," Pikachu asked.
" If we’re wizards, then WHY in the world are we going by RAFT?! Can’t we just use magic to get there?!"
" Oh!," Pikachu said, realizing the same thing. " Well, I guess we both forgot?"
" Err… whatever," Marill said, not wanting to admit that he himself had also forgotten about being able to use magic to get to the island. " Okay then, let’s just use our magic to get there now, and beat Xyris to that stone!"
" We can’t.," Pikachu said.
" WHAT?! Why not?"
" Because we absolutly cannot use magic to get out of a plastic raft."
" You’re kidding," Marill said, dumbfounded. " And who told you that?"
Pikachu responded by digging through their things, and bringing out a book entitled, ‘Guide Book for Advanced Wizards’. He flipped halfway through the book, then handed it to Marill, who began to read the page aloud.
" Wizard magic doesn’t work in certain situations. One of which, being if you are stranded on a raft in the middle of the ocean. You cannot use magic to get out of the raft. It will not work. Your best coarse of action would be to evacuate the raft, or use a spell to make the raft move for you." Marill tossed the book back int he bag. " Yeah right."
" But Marill, it’s…"
" Magis, Transit!" Marill yelled into the air. He waited a few seconds. Nothing happened.
" Told you so."
" GAAAH!," Marill yelled in frustration. " This is ridiculous!"
" Well, we’re going the right way now," Pikachu said. " Don’t worry. We’ll be at Flaming Doom soon enough."
" Yeah right," Marill muttered to himself, noting that the craft was barely moving at a snail’s pace.
