Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Barry was up a bit late after the events of last night as he moves about and gets out of his pjs and gets half way dressed after cleaning up and releasing all his pokemon out, Rebecca of course wraped around his chest happily to hug him."It's great to see you too girl. Now then the rest of are ready for the morning activates?" He said with a smile as he sat down and pulled out food from his bag and started to feed each of them.
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius frowns in thought for a moment before focusing on his connection to the collective, and saying to the Unown, "At present, I don't believe it would be wise to combine your power with Idea's own - I can't imagine that anything good would come from that. However... I would still ask for your help, if you're willing to offer it - particularly as I'll be working more on glyphcraft in the future. It's up to you, though - if you'd prefer to leave, I won't stop you." He holds up a Pokeball and says, "Will you join me? Or will you leave?"
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex smiles and replies to the woman, "I heard you wanted some help clearing out pokemon from the church?"
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex, the old nun smiles and nods.
"Ah yes, that. It seems we have gotten a few neighbors in our belfry that don't like noise too much. Poor Ludwig, he was bitten all over when he first found them when ringing the noon bell. We've had to keep our bell quiet since our partners are for rituals and assistance around the church, though you, you look strong, dearie. Still care to take up the job?"
Darius, the unown just floats around before flying directly into your forehead and perching there. Seems ready to settle, but maybe not in a ball.
Li, you have three challenges, finding your way obscured first by trainers, but eventually you claw your way through the challenges to a clear, large garden, the maze behind you at last. Looking around, though...where's Gardenia?
(Perception)
Barry, you head down to the Center's cafeteria, where many trainers still sit. However, the first you notice is one with a strange yellow and blue flying type, with a long, thin tail and strange...beak? But it has teeth. He sits next to a rattata, the youth talking to the little avian and pointing to himself.
"No, dada.
"Mok mok?"
The rattata snickers at that, the avian turning it's head to a side as the boy looks to their pokemon friend.
"Really? No, dada."
"Mok mok."
The rattata leans in at that.
"Rat rat?"
The avian looks over to the rodent.
"Dok dok."
Again, the rodent mon smirks as, meanwhile, the boy just hangs his head, the bird turning to look at them again.
"Mok mok?"
"Yeah, sure. Mok mok, Wok Wok."

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex smiles and says, "Of course! Um...Lead on, I suppose?"
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Li, looking around you notice the greenery closing in around you slowly, making rougher terrain for you and your team in all likelihood. However, the green ninja Gardenia avoids your gaze, so how do you flush her out?
Alex is led up to a stairwell by the elderly matron, her walk slow buto not tedious as she talks of old stories and myths. Eventually she ends up at the top of a tower, gazing over the town as the nun slowly opens a large door, the fluttering of wings behind it reminding you that it is not age that slows her, but caution. Looking in, there seem to be roughly a dozen of them, many eyeless zubat and woobat, but...wait, is that a noibat? This far west, in the wild?
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius blinks for a moment before shrugging and saying, "If that's what you wish, then thank you." Turning his attention to Idea, he then says, "Now... I believe some practice is in order before we attempt to face the gym again. And while I don't doubt your power, there is a saying that has always struck me for its accuracy - 'The ultimate expression of power is control.' So let's begin working on that, shall we?" He then directs the Abra to begin launching stones into the air with his telekinetic abilities, before trying to strike them with focused blasts of Hidden Power. After observing and directing for a few moments, Darius begins joining in the efforts to strike the rocks as they fall, turning it into an impromptu competition with his Abra. After a half hour of this, he then releases Sky to begin training the Noibat, followed by Saber.
Once the training session is completed, he recalls his Pokemon - excluding Idea - and says, "Alright - let's go and see if we have better luck with the gym today than we did yesterday, shall we?" before leading the Pokemon towards the gym.

Training Idea, Saber and Sky each for a half hour. Sky receives 5 XP, Saber and Idea each receive 6. Saber levels up.
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex looks up the belfry, but her face erupts in silent delight when she sees the Noibat. Everything was suddenly far more interesting. She silently pumps her arm in victory, then tosses out Seiryuu, and whispers, "Use Sing on the Noibat," hoping to keep the sound level low enough not to startle the bat pokemon.
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex, Seiryuu looks up at the pokemon but gives a startled chirp and flies behind your head. Curious, you look up again, this time noticing, in the dark, a large pair of ears seemingly connected that just flipped up. Looking lower, you spot yellow eyes open, glaring at you as shadows begin to rise from one of the rafters.
"SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
The beast leaps from the rafters at you, maw open wide and slavering as a long tail darts behind it. As it descends, you get a better view, and while you first thought it could be a noivern, it seems to be too thick of chest, it's legs wrong, it's face too disproportionate. Something is wrong with this noivern, although that is not the most pressing thought on your mind as it tries to land on you.

Darius, before you get on your way too far, you hear things crack and creak in the woods around you, heading towards your position. May have some issues before you get to try and conquer the gym.
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Frowning, Darius looks around, looking for the source of the noise and hoping at least to see any auras present. Idea, meanwhile, extends his senses and gives a low hum of irritation.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Li Fei closes his eyes for a moment listens to his surroundings as he strokes his beard and contemplates his next action. The stage for the next battle was being set, yet the gym leader hasn't revealed themself.
"Hmmm..." The monk reached for Qilin's ball and released the fire pony. "Display of fire." With those words the ponyta's mane of fire flared up before breaking out into a Gallop around the area, weaving through and along the plants. While Qilin's flames threatened the greenery, Li Fei scanned the area for any movement or reaction.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex turns to look as Seiryuu flits over to her, then swears as she's pounced on by the malformed Noivern, barely blocking it's jaws by ramming her forearm into it's neck. She struggles, trying to get the thing off of her and her hand to a pokeball as she says, "Seiryuu!...Use...Sing?" She struggles, adrenaline making tactics harder as she tries to keep her face from being ripped off.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex, the noivern seems to be too enthralled with the idea of spare human ribs to even notice the song of Seiryuu, your arm barely keeping it from cracking your shoulder in half with a good bite even though it prevents you from getting back up. However, the other bats seem to flit and...chew on the noivern? However, it seems too strong, and still intent on making a meal out of you.

Darius, looking around, you spot...oh dammit, is that a tauros? That looks like a tauros that just bashed a persian through a tree near you, bellowing with rage as the cat falls limp before pawing the ground. As it turns to look for more foes and spots you, you are REALLY sure that's a tauros!
Li Fei, unfortunately the display gets a chuckle from somewhere, echoing around you, before the fire suppression system turns on, causing water to rain down from above*. However, looking around, the display of greenery actually throws you off for a moment before you slowly hone in, pushing away the simple patterns of life nearly blinding your third eye, and finding Gardenia standing above you on a rafter covered by vines, hidden among them and apparently with her hand on something. Possibly the source of the water.
*Rain Dance in effect
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius frowns as he sees the Tauros before saying, "Definitely not an ideal situation... there's no way I'll be able to outrun it... Saber! Get ready!" With the last, he flicks out a Pokeball, releasing the Pawniard in front of him to face the bovine Pokemon.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex swears as her arm gives out and the Noivern sinks its teeth into her shoulder. She lets out a scream of rage and fury, the pure power of her pride and outrage forming a beam of draconic power directed at the Noivern, as Seiryuu, seeing it's owner in pain, chirps twice then lets out a resonating shriek.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Li Fei gives a hearty laugh upon finally seeing gym leader as he beings his hands together, one fist into the palm of the other. "Greetings, esteemed gym leader. I am here to test my pokemon and myself against you."
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Barry blinks a bit before heading on over to the trainer and looking down."Ummm hello there bucko, you seem to be in need of something, what's the matter, and how can I, Barry, Help you?" He said with a big smile and a bow as he introduce himself looking at the two pokemon and the kid.
