Brand New Day

[determinedguardian]

Bill smiled at the little pokemon.

"You can go for it. Devia doesn't have any attack moves yet," Bill said. Besides there was something about the little bunny let made Bill think that it would be better off with Rozalin then himself.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Rozalin shrugs, "Suit yourself. Cereberus, Ember!" Cereberus responds with a howl and covers the Buneary in Embers. "Hey..! Watch..! Where you..! Aim..!" It pleads. The Buneary gets hit by the brunt of the attack and gets knocked backwards. It's laying on the ground for a moment, "Hmmm...Maybe a little too weak..." Rozalin says. She pulls out a PokeBall and tosses it at the Buneary.

OOC: I can't say that my character caught the Pokemon, so you'd have to determien whether or not it does. Then, I'd do the same for you, and so on, and so on...

[determinedguardian]

((OOC: Got it.))

As the pokeball flew through the air the Buneary rose to its feet. The Buneary deflected the pokeball back at Rozalin and ran towards Cerberus in a Pound attack.

Bill and Devia just sat back and watched the battle.

((OOC: Couldn't make this too easy for you. ))

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

"Guh, uppity thing." Rozalin remarks, "Ember!" Cerberus jumps into the air and releases a spray of Ember after recovering from the Pound. Rozalin, beforehand, caught the deflected PokeBall and held it in her hand, "This should do it..." her aura resenates from the hand holding the PokeBall.

[determinedguardian]

The Buneary used Defense Curl and curled up into a ball as the flames hit the small pokemon. The flames singed it's fur. The Buneary hopped back up. Not quite as energetic as before but it was clear that the pokemon wasn't going to give up.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Cereberus smirks devilishly, "Ember!", at his Trainer's command, Cereberus releases yet another Ember. The flames pelting the Buneary over and over again!

[determinedguardian]

Buneary decided to take the offensive. It ran towards the Houndour through the flames. The pokemon took heavy damage before smacking the Houndour with a Pound attack. Buneary was panting heavily and was obviously close to fainting.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Cereberus bit its tongue from being brought to the ground and howled in pain, "AAAAOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Rozalin looked shocked, "Cereberus! To my side!" The Pokemon ran to Rozalin's side and she quickly put her hand to Cereberus's muzzle to minimize the pain. The swelling on the Pokemon's tongue goes down and he only wimpers. "Now, you're mine!" She tosses the PokeBall at the Buneary. The ball is ablaze in a purple aura.

[determinedguardian]

The Buneary just watched the pokeball fly towards it. It tried to bat the pokeball away again but was too weak and was consumed by a bright red light and was absorbed into the pokeball. The ball shook from side to side quickly at first but then began to slow down. After few moments, the pokeball came to a stop and dinged signifying that the pokemon had been caught.

Bill watched. He was impressed with the Buneary's unwillingness to give up. It was a prime example of why he had to take over the world. The pokemon's indomitable spirit and purity. If only people were like that then maybe he wouldn't have to be so focused on purifying the world.

"Nice job," he said to Rozalin seeing her catch.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Rozalin smiles and pats Cereberus's head, "Too easy. Nicely done, Cereberus." She walks over and picks up the PokeBall. She pressed the button on the Ball and Vuneary comes out. Rozalin kneels down to eye level, "Poor thing. Here, this'll make you feel better." She holds her hand to the Buneary's forehead and it emenates her usual aura. The Buneary is healed and seems a lot more willing to lisen to Rozalin. "I'll call you...Carol." The Buneary jumps up and down is obvious joy. Cereberus walks to Carol and braks happily, wagging his tail. Carol replies by performing a curtsey. "Good, now, shall we be off?"

[determinedguardian]

"Sure," Bill said. He watched as Carol grew more fond of Rozalin. It was nice to see something so pure and trusting in such a corrupt place and time.
Devia looked up at Bill. She wondered what was going on in his mind. He was so hard to read sometimes but she knew that he was doing the right thing.

Bill, Devia, and company walked on. Bill’s eyes were taking in the landscape. It was such a beautiful land. He turned his head when a rustling in the bushes caught his attention. It could be nothing but it could also be a pokemon. Bill stopped and waited to see if the pokemon or whatever it was would emerge from the bushes.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

The Pokemon that emerge are two, yes two, Riolu! Both seem happy and are playing until they notice the Trainers. One stands in front of the other and says, "Stay away!". Rozalin is surprised but happy, "How interesting...Two Riolu at once. They must be kin..." The Riolu both look at the Trainers and their Pokemon with stern expressions. It should be noted that one is slightly larger than the other and the samller of the two is a slightly lighter shade of blue.

[determinedguardian]

Devia started to approach the Riolu.

"Devia. You heard him. Give them their space," Bill said to his pokemon. He wasn't about to disrespect the pokemon's wishes. Devia looked up at Bill and wondered why he didn't want her to get close to the two pokemon.

"We don't mean any harm. We were just passing through and the noise from the bushes caught my attention," he said to the pokemon.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

The smaller Riolu relaxes slightly, but the other looks ready to strike. "Please, we mean no harm. We-" Rozalin cuts herself off, athought just came to her head, The Lucario, Riolu evolves into Lucario, and I could teach it to use its Aura for my purposes! "I'm catching one..." The smaller one attempts to run off, however, Carol blocks its path, "Wha...What do you want with us...?"

[determinedguardian]

"I told you we don't mean any harm. If you attack us however, we will defend ourselves," he told the Riolu that looked ready to attack. Bill looked at Rozalin. She seemed determined to catch one of the Riolu.

"Rozalin. Why don't we leave them alone. I'm sure there's plenty of other pokemon around here," Bill said. Devia decided to ignore her trainer's advice and approached smaller Riolu.

<Hiya!> she said cheerfully to the pokemon.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Before she can answer, the bigger Riolu attacks the Cubone with a Mach Punch, "Stay away from us!" Rozalin gives Cereberus a glance and nods, "Bill, I am sorry if it upsets you, but I am in need of a Riolu for a particular purpose, and this one may be my only chance. Cereberus, Ember." Cereberus releases a jet of Ember at the bigger Riolu. "Gah!" It yells, being knocked backwards. Carol prevents the smaller one's escape, "Agh! Brother!" Rozalin nods, "Carol, Pound." It pounds the smaller one with one of her ears, being of a low level, the attack doesn't knock her out, but it does do significant damage, showing that the smaller one is weak.

[determinedguardian]

Bill realized that nothing he could say would prevent her from capturing the pokemon.

"This is exactly why I need to take over the world," Bill thought. Two pokemon minding their own business and she is going to separate the two sibling pokemon. Bill would have to get the other pokemon and keep the two of them together for as long as possible.

"Come here little guy. Don't worry. I'll keep you safe from the Houndour," Bill said to the smaller Riolu. He knelt down to get to the pokemon's level

<It'll be ok. Bill will make sure you're safe.> Devia said as she walked over to the small Riolu. She put a hand on its shoulder.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

The bigger Riolu senses no danger with the boy but looks at Rozalin with an icy stare, "If you want to stay with your sibling, then come with me." she says. The smaller of the two says something to the Cubone, "Ummm...I'm a girl..." The bigger one puts down its arms, "Fine...If my sister wishes to go with the boy, I shall follow you." Rozalin smiles, "Excellent. Do you want power...?" The Riolu looks somewhat startled, "Power...? Well, yes...To protect my sibling..." Rozalin nods and her Pokemon return to her side, "Very well. Bill, the other one is up to you..."

[determinedguardian]

"I'll keep you close to your brother for as long as I can," Bill said with a smile at the little Riolu. He looked at the pokemon and realized that it was a female and not male. Bill blushed a bit as he realized his mistake.

Devia offered the Riolu a smile. Bill waited to see whether or not the pokemon would approach him. He'd only offer her a pokeball later. For now he just planned to travel with her.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

The Riolu cautiously steps towards Bill. After a moment, she smiles at Devia. The older Riolu looks at Rozalin sternly, "How exactly do you plan to make me strong?" Rozalin smiles, "By teaching the powers of Demon Aura." She holds out her hand to demonstrate. The hand is engulfed by her familiar aura and she points her index finger at a small boulder, "Watch." She raises her arm, finger still pointed, and the boulder floats in the air, "And now..." She clenches her fist and the boulder explodes. The Riolu looks on in awe, "I could do that...?" Rozalin giggles and pats his head, "But ofcourse, if you're willing to dedicate your services to me." The Riolu opens his mouth but closes it almost immediately, did he really want to be in service to this woman? Meanwhile, Cereberus and Carol spar a few feet away from the group, not really doing any damage.

[determinedguardian]

Bill didn't make any sudden movements. He didn't want to risk scaring the little pokemon off. Devia walked back over to Bill. She was curious how this was going to play out. Devia knew that Bill was a good trainer but she wondered what the little Riolu thought about him.

Although Bill was focusing on the Riolu he also heard the exchange between Rozalin and the other Riolu. Demon Aura...it didn't sound right. If people had that kind of power he'd have to get his own power to purify and rule the world.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

Rozalin somehow senses Bill's concern, "Do not freight, Demon Aura is simply a title for a type of Dark Aura. It's called Demon Aura because, when used on Pokemon it increaes their offensive stats and makes them more battle aggressive." The female Riolu looks at Bill and holds out her paw.

[determinedguardian]

Bill just nodded. He had more important things to focus on right now then Demon Aura. He reached out and lightly took hold of the Riolu's paw. Bill smiled trying to make the Riolu as comfortable as possible.

[Pocket Monster Trainer Onyx]

The Riolu smiles back and shakes Bill's hand, "I think this'll work out...As long as you and your girlfriend stick together." Rozalin blushes severly, "Wha-WHAT!? WE ARE NOT DATING!" The boy Riolu rolls his eyes, "Oh, please. It's soo obvious." "QUIET YOU!" The Pokemon all break out in laughter. The situation just got brighter.

[determinedguardian]

Bill let go of the Riolu's hand and then chuckled when the male Riolu suggests that Bill and Rozalin were dating. He looked over at Rozalin who seemed embarassed and he decided to make the situation a bit worse for her.

"What am I not good-looking enough for you?" he asked pretending to be upset but not doing a very good job at it.
