PTA: Heralds of a New Dawn (IC)

"Fido, guard the side. Be ready," Vladmir orders, gesturing to his left. The Poochyena lets out a single low bark before bounding over and howling at the nearest Bibarel.

Setha's first blow misses (how you miss is beyond me) but the second lands, blasting more bodies away.

Then, the swarm surges forward. Those near Setha and Tarna collide with them. Tarna is able to dodge their haphazard movements easily enough, Setha is less lucky.

The group Donny was harassing surges forward, a few completely ignoring him, going after Aire and Kiran. The bulk, however, focus on him. Despite his threats, they don't seem phased. All he hears is a montonous chant. Intruders! Kill! Food for the dam! Intruders! Kill! Food for the dam! Two groups smash into Aire, another into Kiran clambering ontop of each other to reach the spider. The Bidoof surround Donny, barraging him with bodies, quickly wearing him down till he can't stand no more.

The southern and eastern swarms surge forwards, but quickly block themselves within the thick tree line. Several run past Aidan and Fido, smacking into Vlad, Ennis and another trying and failing to hit Aire. Another moves around Aidan's feet, only to rear around and smack into him. Fido is consumed in a mound of fur, only for them to retreat. The poor dog isn't moving (but breathing).

Aidan curses, and says, "Kiran, suck them dry!" as he reaches for another Pokeball while the insect bites into one of the Bidoof as it scrambles to reach him, draining its blood. Seeing the Bidoof horde near him succumb to Aire's song, he smiles, and sends Eleara out behind the "Going to need some crowd control here in a moment, Elly," he says as he swings his disc-blade at one of the still awake Bidoof in front of the Bibarel. "Ennis," he calls over the chittering of the swarm, "Move Aire away from Elly! I'm going to be using her to start clearing them out!"

Echo soars through branches and other distractions effortlessly. She circles right and pulls up into a climb at the last moment.

Echo's shrieks stun the Biberal, but the others compensate chittering louder.Two groups pile over on top of themselves to get a shot at Echo, succeeding when one bucked tooth beaver collides. The other two previously on Donny charge at Tarna. She goes to dodge but the beavers were tripping over themselves before that was even necessary.

The mass lulled to sleep remains asleep, save a group directly below Aire. They try to hit the bird but the flighty movements protects the bird. Two groups start to circle around one of the larger trees, while those of the mass swarm who avoided the lullaby reorganize, massing on Aidan, 32, Setha and Vlad. 32's bobbing motions allow it to dodge the bodies easily, the rest not as lucky. Vlad and Setha both take a hit a piece, while several collide with Aidan.
