another day in paradise (sage/open)

Lucario was laying under a tree and just wondering why did Vulcan want her child if she was so weak,she terned and looked at her squad. Nidoran was runing around with sandshrew just playing, and finally Omanyte was in the in a stream to her lift. She had just Gotten back from here little meeting with Vulcan and she wanted to know what her squad had to say about "Squad front and center," Nidoran ran to were Lucario was and Omanyte slowly crawled to were Lucario was. Sandshrew was reluctantly but went any way because he had nothing better to do, When they were all together Lucario looked at her team mates and smiled. "What do you all think about Vulcan, and is demands for me to give him my child and what do you think about the hole encounter, second you first" Omanyte looked up and then back at Lucario, "well lead to tell you the truth we could use this to are advantage you see if we do give him the egg then one him. He would have to be nice to use and allow him safe passage to see the Riolu, and the Riolu recognizes you as its mother not that cat. Then we ask to be trained by Vulcan and his pack their for makeing us stronger."

"good point there second and what about you third," Nidoran looked at Omanyte and nodded and then looked back at Lucario. "I do agree with second here we do need to get stronger and with Lord Speedy training us, and if we could get lord Laz to train us as well, we can get stronger that much faster. the faster we are stronger the faster i get girls and the faster humans and pokemon alike well respect us." Lucario nodded and then she looked at the new guy, "Sandshrew i know you do not like the master but he means no harm and you are now a part of this squad and there for family. What say you forth," Sandshrew looked at all the his fellow pokemon and and nodded "I go with them." Lucario nodded, "so its decided then lord speedy and lord laz well get a Riolu but my offering is that they treat me and my Squad as family for now i am no we are there family now agreed Wardog." Omanyte, Nidoran and Sandshrew nodded there head "agreed" they all side in unison

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,10,true][atrb=style,background-image: url('http://i53.tinypic.com/wb98wn.jpg');,true] ROLLING IN THE DEEP ! An onyx colored Ninetales, Persephone with a blood red diamond and equally blood red eyes was walking tiredly looking for some shade to lay under. She was followed by a taller Magmar named Huo who was carefully carrying a very young Numel in his arms. He was also equally tired. The reason why they are exhausted? Young Numel named Amor was very hungry and a young Numel who was very hungry was not a good sign. When a Numel becomes hungry, they get really hungry and become very sluggish. Persephone had snorted in disbelief when Amor had match her sluggishness with much complaining. She was sourly tempted to burn that Numel but motherly instincts had prevented her from doing so and also the fact that Amor was also a fire type. She wouldn’t feel right injuring her own kind. She had no clue how Huo had that much patience and kindness to grab Numel enough berries to make Amor full and fall asleep right after. Huo paused and suggest as he spotted a tree in the distance, “Hey Per, I see some shade that tree. Wanna’ go over there?” His arms were getting tired and he needed a break too. He cared for the Numel a lot and he couldn’t help it. They both came from the same volcano and close to each other’s cave. She would sometimes come over to his relaxing spot just to complain about her family issues. He really didn’t talk much but it seemed that the Numel preferred it that way he guessed. He wondered why his Mistress had captured him and Amor in the first place besides his Mistress telling both of them that would make them strong. She did train him and Amor on her free time but not as much as he would want her to. He felt a bit bitter that Persephone, the bitch got more action then he did. But still, he respected his Mistress, so he would take her word for it. He would always be loyal to his Mistress. And even if it didn’t seem like it, he knew that the so-called bitch probably was the most caring pokemon and loyal one in the pack excluding the overzealous Bayleef. Zeal was his Mistress’s first pokemon, he or Persephone couldn’t top that. Hey was Persephone ignoring him. She wasn’t arguing with him nor agreeing with him. Huo pressed on, “Let’s go to that tree?” He wasn’t that patient. Damn. Irritating Vixen. Persephone retorted, “I do not feel like going there Huo.” Huo replied as a matter of fact, “I thought you were tired Per,” and continued, “I’m tired, you’re tired Missy. Let’s go or I’ll drag you there myself,” and he grinned though a bit irritated. Persephone growled, “Don’t you dare…” Huo laughed, “Why not Pearly?” Persephone huffed, “I don’t like the pokemon there,” and emphasized sharply, “I’m not going Huo.” Huo asked curiously, “They’re jus’ pokemon Per.” “Still, I don’t like them” as she trailed her eyes on the Lucario, Nidoran, and Sandshrew. Huo sighed, “You didn’t like lil’ ol’ me did you?” “That’s because I have to deal with you as irritatingly how that sounds.” Huo replied, “I’m going anyway. Do whatever you want and be a drama queen,” as he walked toward the tree next to the other pokemon. What harm could they do? Persephone grumbled as she grudgingly decided to not be alone, “Fine, I’ll go over there too.” Before she had her Mistress, she was called the “Queen Vixen” and she was almost always alone even ever since she was a kit. One day, her mother just suddenly disappeared and didn’t come back for her. Ever since then, she had to fend for herself and it was a hard life for a young kit. Was it because she looked different than the other Vulpixs? It seemed that she wouldn’t be able to find out the reason anytime soon. Now that she had a pack, she was surprisingly beginning to yearn for their company and disliked the thought of being alone. To be honest, she loved her pack very much and would do anything for them. She just had a low tolerance for stupidity. Period. It began to feel a bit breezy and the air became cool than it was earlier. Huo absolutely hated the coolness of the air and would rather find a hotter area to relax at and better yet, a volcanic place around here just like home. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a volcanic area around here. He blew some small flames from his mouth to keep himself. Cold places made him slightly irritable. Magmar and Numel finally reached the tree where shade was located. He really didn’t feel hot at all but it would be nice to take a nap and lean against something. The tree next to him and Amor had a group of pokemon; Lucario, Sandshrew, and a Nidoran. He wondered who they belonged to but he wasn’t that curious though it would be polite if he greeted them since their tree was next to their tree. He gently put the baby Numel down on the ground to let her sleep some more. Then suddenly saw his fellow fire-type pokemon, Persephone walk up next to him and he grinned jokingly, “What took ya; so long eh?” Persephone mumbled, “Shut up Huo.” Huo laughed, “I knew it, pausing and continued, “You do love us!” “You’re so annoying. How do I put up with you?” she sighed and glanced sharply at the other pokemon as if judging them. Deciding to be the ice-breaker, Huo greeted them, “’Ello I’m Huo” and looked at the sleeping Numel, “This kid is Amor. Try not to wake her up. And this pretty Vixen is—“ He was interrupted by the Ninetales, “Persephone,” and continued sharply, “A pleasure.” Huo glanced at her a bit worriedly and looked back at the other pokemon, “Mind if we sit under the tree next to ya’ guys?” 995 WORDS , VEN/OPEN , OUTFIT , I'm tired...

"Was that...the right choice, dear?"

Freiya asked, a tone in her voice that was so uncharacteristic that it made Vulcan make a small stop and break on his normally regal and imposing posture. The blue furred and black maned Luxray slowly walked forward, her paws making so much sound as they padded on the pavement.

"It will be, love. Do not anguish yourself in doubt."

Vulcan reprised as he gave the woman an affectionate nuzzle, right where he bit her a few months ago. Careful around it, still thinking that the bite antagonizes her no matter how many times she's said it doesn't.

"I'll be heading there. Take care of them for me."

Vulcan announced as Jubei and Himura stood by him. The Crobat and Toxicroak at attention as they waited for their leader to set off. Giving Freiya one last lick on her nose, Vulcan turned around and headed for the Lucario's camp.

"well then now that is settled you guys carry on with what your doing, ill be making a fire soon so don't stray to far." that's when Omanyte saw the three pokemon a tall magmar and a baby numal and a oddly colored Ninetails, "ummm Lead we got company." Lucario at what Omanyte was talking about and saw the the three pokemon and hared them say hi, Lucario got up to meet them. "Wardog form up in a line to my right in rank." Omanyte crawled to Lucario's Right side and then fallowed by Nidoran and Sandshrew. "hello there Huo, Armor, Persephone I am Lucario but you can call me Lead if you would like. This is my squad named Wardog squadron, first off we have Omanyte wardog 2, Then we have wardog 3 Nidoran, and Finlay we have the newest member to Wardog Sandshrew." after Lucario called each of their names they all side "hello" in unison, "we all welcome you in to are camp come the more the merrier right i was about to start a fire and have Sandshrew go find some Barry's for dinner your welcome to join us if you would like."

Nidoran looked at Lucario, "Lead I'm not to sure about letting strangers in to the camp i do not think its safe." Lucario looked at Nidoran and gleared at him, "on second thought forth you stay third you go find dinner and bring back the Barry's and don't talk back or you well go with out eating do you understand." Nidoran was about to protest but then nodded and gleared at Sandshrew, and Sandshrew hissed at him as Nidoran ran off in to the forest. "Don't pay no mind to him he just don't like strangers," Lucario steeped aside and reached her arm out "well you join us in are feast."

[atrb=width,240] Hearing the Lucario tell the other pokemon in her group to form a link in a rank, he couldn’t help but snicker and almost didn’t realize he was about to drop the kid, Amor so he decided to place her gently against the medium sized where it looked comfortable enough. He leaned toward Persephone whispering as he joked, “They seem organized. Like miniature soldiers.” Persephone glanced at the group of pokemon intensely and began to whisper back, “No…they seem--” she trailed off trying to find a word to describe them, “Odd.” Once the Lucario began to introduce her and her group of a Nidoran, Sandshrew, and an Omanyte, Huo and Persephone glanced at each other in silent agreement that the group was well, very odd. It was perplexing that the pokemon seemed to not have their individual names but were called Lead and then the rest were Wardog followed by a certain number. Huo’s mind was rushing with different questions of the reasons why they were named wardog not like other pokemons’ names. Huo being the outspoken one in the group began to open his mouth about to ask that very question out loud, “Hey why—?“ Then he felt some sort of intimidating aura from Persephone though it was more like the air became hotter than before. He automatically shut his mouth and had a feeling that she didn’t want him interrupting the Lucario’s introduction—for now. He guessed he’ll play along and listen to her but later, maybe not since he felt like he was as strong as her and could defy her once in a while and the fact he liked getting on her nerves. It was his daily ritual to do so. Huo cocked his head in thought hearing the Lucario saying the ‘more the merrier’ and wondered why it had sounded familiar. His master had said something like that didn’t she? But still, that wasn’t why he thought that phrase sounded so familiar. Ah, that was it now remembering a movie his master told him about a few days ago. And hearing them invite him, Persephone, and Amor to a feast, he felt giddy at the thought of food and grinned, “Sure! We’ll feast and be like the merry band of thieves!” and turned to the Ninetales asking, “Robin Hood right?” Persephone just looked at him with a blank stare and snapped, “Shut up.” Huo frowned thinking that she was in a pissed off mood and decided not to try to get her irritated but seriously, he knew somehow—that wouldn’t be possible. Persephone sighed addressing the group of pokemon, “Sorry about that. It was a movie reference. But yes, we’ll join you for dinner.” Huo blew out a tiny flame as a daily habit when he’s bored and was restless wanting to do something already like eating right now and affirmed, “Ya’ know you guys got us. Per, Amor, and of course me got some badass flames. We can provide da’ fire if ya’ want. Eh, what do ya say?” He didn’t mind helping them out at all, the faster they can light up the fire, the faster they could eat though he wasn’t sure about Persephone helping since she didn’t help just anybody especially others she just met and the kid Amor? Well she was just a lazy brat. Someone had to be the nice guy around here. Uh oh. He heard the Nidoran saying that it wasn’t safe letting strangers into the camp and he became irritated at that comment. The cool wind wasn’t making it any better. He hated cool air. He hated judgmental pokemon when they didn’t even get to know them yet. What a loser. He blew out a larger flame from his nose to relax himself a bit and glancing from the corner of his eye, could see that Persephone had twitched and growled menacingly seeming to about to snap at the Nidoran. And she was the one who told him to be quiet but well, she was a female after all. At least the Lucario scolded the Nidoran stopping Persephone from saying anything or worse, doing something to the little Nidoran. It seems like the Lucario was the dominate one in the group and had a reign on them. Seeing the little Nidoran glaring at the Lucario, he had sensed an argument about to erupt but actually ran off to get some berries, while the Sandshrew and Lucario stayed. He was a little disappointed they were not going to eat anything hotter and he sort of knew that Per wanted to devour tasty little pidgeys and what not, probably any small bird pokemon. Whatever satisfies the queen is just fine he guessed. Trying to be the ice breaker and start up a conversation, he inquired, “So who do you guys belong to?” He never really got some action and battled as much as Per did so he didn’t meet much other pokemon nor their trainers though encountered other trainers trying to capture him, which they failed well, then his master defeated him and then surprisingly caught him. That was very unexpected for him. He needed to become stronger than he was before. He then heard Amor calling out to him from a distance, “Huo! Huo Huo!” Persephone replied sharply at Huo, “She’s your responsibility.” Huo sighed and dragged himself toward the kid answering back tiredly, “What is it kid?” Amor grumbled, “It’s chilly here. I don’t like it. Wanna leave right now.” He widened his eyes and condescended at her, “As much as I don’t like the weather, we just got here.” Amor retorted as she kicked the dirt, “So your point?” Females were such a handful. He knew he couldn’t use there being food as an excuse for her to stay here because she had already eaten her fill. He saw Per walk up to them and felt worried what she would do and heard her say with a hint of irritation, “What’s taking so long Huo?” Huo trailed off, “Well, the thing is—“ Persephone interrupted him and glared at Amor snapping, “Stop being a brat. At least be polite to them. They’re offering food anyway.” Amor huffed, “Fine. It doesn’t mean I’m going to like it.” Persephone began walking toward the group, “Fine by me.” Huo looked uncertain and then peeved that Persephone was able to convince Amor to not complain and stay put though it was through intimidation than anything else. He felt a bit powerless right now as he blew out a small flame also walking back to the group of pokemon with Amor following him grumbling all the way. Persephone tersely apologized, “Sorry about the wait.” Huo continued still put off, “Yeah the kid woke up.” Amor retorted, “You know I’m still here and wide awake. I’m not dumb.” He replied jokingly, “No one said you were kid.” Amor added, “Shush your face,” and addressed the group, “I’m Amor. Nice to you meet you.” It seemed like that smile was forced and like she was forcing herself to be polite. She was probably grumpy from just waking up. Already forgetting his irritation from earlier, Huo grinned and asked the question that was on his mind the whole time, “So why is everyone called ‘Wardog?’ It’s weird you know? Like what if there’s twenty pokemon in your group? Or 50? Wardog 50? I would be so confused by then you know? So yeah, why?” He couldn’t help it, it just seemed odd. He could see Amor cock her head in confusion probably since she had no idea what he was referring to since she just woke up. It was understandable. But based on Per not looking like she wanted to bash his head, seemed like she wanted to know as well.

"Ugh, this wind is starting to grate on my nerves."

The Toxicroak complained as the wind began to chill out. He didn't like it when everything just became so unbalanced. Why couldn't it only be normal temperature? Regardless, the Toxicroak kept moving as he followed the Houndoom up front. Thinking that probably keeping his mouth shut would do him more good then anything else right now.

The Crobat on the other hand was already plotting the demise of every single cellular being on this Arceus-forsaken planet. Then again, that's what he always thinks about so nothing new to see in that muddled brain of his. Always seeing the world be drenched in his deadly poison and he would rule the world like it was his to begin with.

The Houndoom had only stayed silent as he followed the trails and soon enough, upon a crest of a small hill, his attention was caught by a different magnitude of power. The magnitude had dragged him and just like that, the purpose of the entire visit changed.

[ven Hiroshima]

As the Magmar and Ninetails stared at them with a confused look on their faces, Lucario was used to this most pokemon did not understand their system any way so why bather explaining it to them. but then as the Magmar started to say something but ultimately ending up shutting his moth in the prescience of the Nintails. By there aura Lucario knew that they were all irritated by the wind although thats why Lucario picked this place as her camp it was the windiest place in the ranch and it had a lot of trees to lay under. but that was not what caught Lucario's eye Lucario knew judging by the Nintails aura that she was far stronger then her and the leader of her group, Lucario would have to keep a very sharp eye out for her.

Lucario was waiting for a response and the Magmar agreed with Lucario's offer and nodded, but then the Magmar started talking of something she had no idea of what it was till the Nintails snapped at the Magmar. More influencing that she was the leader and the Magmar should back down.After Nidoran ran off the Magmar asked who owned Lucario and the rest of wardog squad, Lucario smiled "Well are master is know as Ven Hiroshima and who might you three belong to if i may ask." After hearing the little Numal call out the Magmar's name he went back to the nabering tree and went to see what the kid wanted. Then the Ninetailes fallowed as the talked among there self. Lucario sensed another more powerful aura, Lucario knew it was Vulcan and she knew why. That would mean that she would have to send another one of her squad members to help bring more food. "forth sadly we have more company coming i need you to help out third and bring in more food I'm sorry."

Sandshrew sighed and ran off After the Nidoran so now there were two. As the three pokemon came back the baby Numal walked out in front of the three and side hi, Lucario smiled as she knew that the Numal was very irritated and up set Lucario keeled down to the little numal. "hello to you to young one and don't you worry i would find that my squad makes a big fire so you would not be uncomfortable ofter all i am the one inviting you right." Lucaro got back up on to her feet and stood strait, then hearing the Magmar asking why were the called Wardog and why did they have numbers. Lucario smiled "Well you see Hou my master trained me since i was out of the egg to become a leader and we are called Wardog as a means to name are team, no there are 6 pokemon to a normal team. My master on the other hand douse not go buy this guideline. To him there are for members to a team and each team is called a different name. Like now that Wardog is full their can not be another Wardog in are ranks so the next team would be called Ofnir squad. The Numbers are simply ranks with in a squad just like every squad has a rank. Me I'm ranked One or Wardog 1 the leader, Omanyte is Ranked two so there for ranked Wardog 2 and so on fallowing Nidoran and Sandslash. any more you would like to ask Hou if not welcome in to my camp. Wardog dismissed."

As soon as Omanyte heard the word dismissed she broke rank and immediately went back to the river. Lucario stepped to her side now having her lift side facing the pokemon "welcome to camp Wardog."

[atrb=width,240] As Amor listened intently at what it seemed that the Lucario was trying to reassure her, she then glared and argued emphasizing, “I am not uncomfortable. I’m perfectly fine.” She was just grumpy from waking up from a very good dream full of delicious candies and of her evolving to a strong pokemon able to win a lot of battles. She looked downward not wanting to say thank you for letting them stay at the camp but then again, they could have stayed at the campsite either way—with or without that Lucario’s permission. The campsite didn’t say the Lucario owned it or something. She had a feeling that her irritating big sister, Persephone was also grumpy too but for what reason, she didn’t know. She did have a scowl like she didn’t want to be here. Even though she didn’t really mean it, she grumbled, “Thanks for letting us stay here” as she kicked the ground. She knew she was being a brat right now but she didn’t care right now. She heard Huo seemingly tease her, “Thata’ girl. Good job.” She huffed and tried to glare at him directly to his face but she just couldn’t since he was too tall. She wished she could evolve already so she wouldn’t be the shortest fire pokemon in the group. It just sucked. She listened to the Lucario’s explanation why the other pokemon except for the Lucario were all named “Wardog” and she just thought that seemed unfair. To her, it seemed that the Lucario was made out to be above the other pokemon. Wasn’t the Lucario the dog? It just seemed weird they didn’t have their own names. If she was in the same situation, she would be complaining until she got her way and got her own nice original name. She glanced pointedly at the other pokemon asking, “Don’t you want your own name?” and scoffed, “My mistress Sage was nice enough to give me my own name. Unlike yours.” Suddenly, she was interrupted by Huo who shrugged, “Be nice. Their master and our mistress are different how they take care of pokemon. It doesn’t seem like they have a problem with it I think. It doesn’t help to rag them you know?” He did have a point but she still didn’t like it. She grudgingly kept her mouth shut and didn’t ask any more questions. But so much for not asking any more questions, Huo decided to open his big mouth and ask another question, “Why Ofnir? Sounds weird you know?” Amor just wanted to bash her head at how much times she had heard him say “you know?” and that he just contradicted himself. What a hypocrite. She could hear Persephone let out a sigh as if she was somewhat thinking the same thoughts. Amor heard the Lucario welcome them to “camp wardog” and she just had to grumble, “Yeah welcome to Camp Wardog.” She would rather be somewhere else but here. A volcano would be nice, very nice. She loved the heat and was not liking how cool the air became. She glanced to the side spotting a distant shadow and could see three pokemon. She recognized the Houndoom of course since she saw packs of Houndour and Houndoom in the volcano and occasionally talked to some of the friendly Houndours in the pack. But she had never seen the other two pokemon in her life and looked sort of weird. She yelled excitedly trying to get Persephone and Huo’s attention, “Lookie Lookie!” as she turned to the direction of where the other pokemon were at. She looked at her big sister, Persephone and grinned, “A Houndoom that goes Grrrrrr and two funny looking pokemon.” Persephone looked at her with a blank stare, “Funny looking pokemon. That’s a Toxicroak and a Crobat.” Amor mumbled under her breath, “They still look funny.” Huo teased her, “I’m sure they do” as he patted her head. He heard her? Amor asked Huo curiously, “Why do you think they’re coming here?” Persephone answered, “No idea but be polite.” Huo sighed, “Yeah what she said.” Amor watched as her big sister asked the Lucario tersely, “Were you expecting company?”	[atrb=width,140] words , 699 music , Wasting Time- Jack Johnson –swoons- Favorite Musician from Hawaii :] tagged , Ven/Open notes , Mhm, sorry low on my muse.

"Who they be?"

The Crobat had asked his partner, the Toxicroak. The usual screeching of the be damned pokemon had taken a short relief, at least no longer howling during the dead of the night lest he wake up every pokemon in a huge ass diameter.

The grassy fields had began to take on a midnight shade, the once lush fields paling to a bluish black as the moonlight began to descend upon the valley of grass.

The Toxicroak had stayed silent through it all though, no longer complaining even as the eerie cold had began to settle in the pit of his own stomach. They continued on marching through the hill, going upon the crest of the hill.

Slowly and surely the trio had made their way to the top, both the Toxicroak and Crobat paying no heed to the none existent threats like the Lucario and her band of misifts. The real danger was that differently colored ninetails that seemed to emanate the same kind of danger their leader did.

"Have you come to a decision?"

The powerful voice of the red houndoom rang through out the clearing, everything dripping with the malice of power into the very core.

[ven Hiroshima]

Lucario looked at the little Numal asking it that why douse there master not give them names except for her, and then looked back up at the Magmar. "its called Ofnir because that's the masters wishes it its that simple and his command is my duty," Lucario walked back to her tree and jumped up on the branch and layed down. about to doze off the little Numal cry ed out that there was other pokemon in the area, Lucario knew who it was and she was just getting comfortable to she sighed and jumped off of the branch landing in front of the Houndoom and his fellow team mates. "yes yes i have Vulcan and you well get the egg under this conditions you tell the Riolu that i am its mother and nether you or that cat of yours or any of your pack members think me differently. second you respect me and my squad putting treating me and my squad as equals. Finally the last thing Vulcan you treat me And my and squad as family since you are getting my child you are going to be apart of my family and treated effectively. Oh and one last thing Vulcan you are not the father of the Riolu the primape is you got this."

[atrb=width,240] Amor listened to the Lucario’s explanation of why the second pokemon team would be called “Ofnir” and it did seem simple but she didn’t understand why their master would name the team “Ofnir.” That explanation didn’t satisfy her curiosity at all. But then she laughed and snickered at her big brother, “She said duty!” Her big brother Magmar cocked his head in confusion but after a few moments and grinned, “Yeah she did. She said duty!” as Huo looked at Persephone to join in the joke as well. But she just shook her head sighing, “I know. I know,” and exasperated shaking her head, “I didn’t know I was poke sitting for two instead of one…” Amor knew Huo was trying to get Persephone to get out of her shell and open herself up and have fun. Well, that was a failed attempt. She saw the darken sky and moved closer to Persephone since she didn’t like the feeling of the absence of light. It scared her being in the darkness. She was surprised Persephone didn’t tell her to move or just plainly get away so Amor was able to stay beside Persephone for protection from the dark. Huo complained jokingly, “Aw I thought you liked me more?” Amor stuck out her tongue and giggled, “You’ll get your turn Huo-huo! Females stick together right Pearly?” After a few moments she didn’t get a response and was about to complain, “Hey hey?” and looked where her big sister was staring at and could see the three pokemon walking up closer and closer. Amor pointed out, “It’s Houndy, Croaky, and Batty!” She saw Huo shift uncomfortably and wondered what was wrong with him, they were just pokemon after all. Huo urged looking at her worriedly, “Stay quiet alright? For me?” Amor wanted to argue with him about listening to him and saying that he wasn’t the boss of her but the way he looked worried led her to just nod and stay quiet. Once the group of three pokemon, she felt as if the surrounding air became tense and she had no idea why it felt like that. Was it because of what the Houndoom asked the Lucario? What decision was the Houndoom talking about? If this was going to be confrontation, she would rather be somewhere else to rest instead of her beginning to tense and feel uncomfortable. She didn’t notice her body was leaning more toward her big sister and her mind was heading toward the “flight” choice. Besides, she was only a young kid. She watched as the Lucario jumped down from the tree branch and answer the Houndoom’s question about some sort of decision. Wait what? Were they really making a deal over an egg? She didn’t think that was morally right to make deals over eggs like they were merely objects but she kept her mouth shut not wanting to get involved in the situation at hand. But she couldn’t help but comment on the way the Lucario responded, “You’re stupid. He’s stronger than you. Don’t make all those demands all at once you know?” And then she wanted to slap herself for talking and saying ‘you know?’ like Huo does and potentially getting her family involved. Huo murmured at Amor scolding, “Try to be quiet this time okay?” as Amor shivered in worriedness and nervousness in the situation. Her sister decided to speak up addressing both groups of pokemon, “Can anyone tell me what’s going on?” and paused emphasizing, “All we wanted to do was relax and this happens?” Amor felt thankful her big sister spoke up since she really wanted to know what’s going on or just leave. She noticed Persephone didn’t have that intimidating aura when she was pissed off like she did earlier in the day. Maybe it was because she was tired from poke sitting her since she knew she was a handful. She had to admit that. Or maybe it was because she didn’t want to scare her being so close at the moment. Her big sister continued stating, “If we have to deal with this, then my family would rather leave.”	[atrb=width,140] words , 691 music , Sunshine- Atmosphere tagged , Ven/Open notes , Mhm, sorry low on my muse.

"Count your Blessings, Lucario. Do not think for a moment that just because your child will be with us, you would be quickly granted such respect. You will have to work for it. You surrendering a child only opens up that possibility."

Vulcan growled. The power dripping from his voice was brimming with danger and confidence, enough that if it was possible, his words would make a forest bow down. Regardless, the answer was given and so the Vulcan's team had nothing more to do in this crest.

"Yo, don't worry about anything, Kid."

The Toxicroak said, a smile on his face along with a thumbs up to the Numel that was hiding behind the Ninetails. Himura wasn't being hostile at least and was kind enough to give a reassuring gesture to the young pokemon. Sure, his kind was given a stigmata of being dangerous and 'evil' but it didn't mean he couldn't actually be a nice pokemon to others of his race.

"Hmph, the idiocy of your will cost us one of these days."

Jubei snarked at Himura with his screechy voice before giving a quick whap to his forehead and flying high into the trees to make sure that the brute wouldn't be able to reach him. The Toxicroak was about to launch a Venoshock but stopped from a quiet glare it received from the Houndoom.

"It is nothing you need to concern yourself over, Ninetails."

Vulcan started but his ears perked up, a different kind of vibe emanating from the Ninetails. It seemed eerily familiar. It reminded him of a certain silver haired trainers Honchkrow and coincidentally enough, his own. Vulcan looked at the Ninetails, his self already prepared in case something unexpected comes out.

"You, you're different from the rest...aren't you?"

Omanyte now noticed the houndom and crwaled over to Lucario, "Lead is there problem herei well cover your six My lead wont get shot down if i have something to say about it." Lucario looked at Omanyte, "oh nothing to worry about second is the the fire ready for third and forth." Omanyte looked at Lucario "yes mam," Lucario had nodded "then your dismissed you may go back to what you were doing." Omanyte nodded and then crawled back to the little river he had once been, at that moment the Sandshrew and Nidoran came walking out of the forest with banana leaves filled with Berry's, "Lead is this all you wanted."[/color]"yes thank you third and forth, second i want you to help the rest of the squad to put the Berry's on sticks and put them near the fire."

at that moment Lucario shot a small aura sphere at the wood that was built to be a camp fire, the aura sphere struck the wood and started a fire. As Lucarios squad was preparing the food Lucario looked at the Houndoom. "Vulcan most you always be looking for a fight pleas come and join us for some food and we shall discuss this as family." Then Lucario looked at the three fire pokemon, "no there is not to be no fighting for today is for a celebration of coming together come come and we well feast tell are belly's are full and minds empty."

[atrb=width,240] Huo listened intently on the conversation between the female Lucario and the Houndoom and somehow he had to just disagree on the Houndoom’s logic even if the Houndoom was probably much stronger than he was. He just didn’t get it. If someone he knew gave away their baby, he would lose respect for that pokemon not have an opportunity for respect to open up. He was an easy-going Magmar but he had his own moral code, which involved never to give away his own baby if he had one. A life was a life and would need their own mother’s love and touch. This situation just seemed like a trade off of power. And overall, he just didn’t like the seriousness of the situation. He took a worried glance at his older sister, Persephone to see how she was holding up and could see her crimson eyes tilt inward. That was definitely a troubling sign since that most likely meant her patience was wearing thin that she might just lash out at any second. He could at least understand that since she was exhausted and like him, just wanted to relax but It didn’t seem like that was going to happen any time soon. But there was something else that seemed to bother his sister, the way fidgeted and looked back and forth at Amor made it seem like she was obviously worried for Amor. He was worried too when his little sister decided to speak up and tell the Lucario that she was stupid and that the Houndoom was stronger. He almost was about to whack her. What a way to not get involved. He settled for lightly scolding her as an alternative to not scare her in way. He heard the Toxicroak in the group seemingly reassure his little sister and though that was a nice gesture and all but the Toxicroak was not family. He didn’t trust either group. Maybe he would in different circumstances. He saw Amor smile nervously back at the Toxicroak but still he couldn’t help but move a bit in front of his little sister. He glared at the other pokemon as if blaming him and his group for ruining their relaxing and scaring his little sister. “Huo-huo what are you doing?” Amor asked sounding confused. Huo replied back, “Nothing much. Don’t worry ‘bout it. I got chu’ Amor.” He didn’t hear a response from his little sister but didn’t answer. He decided to explain to her why he was acting this way after the situation cooled down. It still seemed tense. He noticed the other pokemon hovering in the air who seemed more of a threat at the moment. Huo resolved to watch his back because not only that the hovering pokemon seemed like a threat, he seemed unpredictable. He was relieved when Persephone spoke up asking what was actually going on. Surprisingly, she seemed less angry, maybe more like irritated than anything else. He and probably Amor were tired of guessing on what was actually going on. They weren’t involved in it yet it seemed like the group’s attention would soon be on them somehow. Uh-oh. Huo could see his big sister twitch by the way the Houndoom phrased his sentence. The Houndoom could have phrased it differently couldn’t he? He was a bit peeved that the Houndoom decided not to answer her question. And that it could have been read as she wasn’t good enough to know what was going on. He could hear Persephone mumbling angrily, “It isn’t my concern…” Was she going to lash out? Should he do something about it? Nah, she had a good reason to do so. It did sound like an insult. But then again, his little sister Amor was here. He knew that Persephone would never want to expose her to her violent tendencies just yet. Her motherly feelings for her prevented her to do so, he hoped. He’d rather not deal with Persephone in that state though he felt obligated to do so. Suddenly, the Houndoom spoke up once again and asked an unexpected question directed at Persephone who seemed to have a puzzled look on how to answer that question. Maybe she wasn’t expecting that question to be asked either. Well, Persephone looked different than other Ninetales that he had seen before. All the other Ninetales he had seen had golden-white fur with their tips of their nine tails colored orange. Persephone was very different. She had onyx-colored fur and her nine tails were tipped with the color of crimson. Her red eyes were a darker shade than the others, almost like the color of blood. Somehow Huo had a feeling the Houndoom wasn’t referring to her physicality differences but to something very different. Finally Persephone replied tersely, “What are you trying to insinuate?” It seemed like she didn’t want to start anything but if the Houndoom was trying to bait her on, then she wouldn’t hesitate to act and defend herself. That was something Huo knew. He felt something bump to the side of his leg. It was Amor who asked, “Is something bad gonna happen?” He patted her head and responded as if trying to convince himself, “Course not.” Amor scowled, “Liar. Tell me the truth.” He sighed not wanting her to worry but he couldn’t always hide her away from things like this, “I don’t know. Let’s just hope it doesn’t come to that Amor.” He didn’t want any violence when he wanted to relax. Then after a while, Huo heard Persephone trail off with a questioning tone of voice, “You mean my power don’t you? Is that what you are referring to Houndoom?” That was just like Persephone to answer a question with a question. She continued, “Then yes I am. I hope you are not trying to start something are you? I’m only interested in keeping the peace at the moment. Don’t you agree?” Huo counted on his fingers how many questions were asked, which was four after just one question. Amor said excitedly, “Pearly, a pidgey!” Huo and Persephone looked up and there actually was a random pidgey flying in the distance, Why was that brought up again? Oh, it was because Persephone had a fixation on attacking bird pokemon. But she didn’t seem interested this time for some odd reason. She asked Amor pointedly, “Your point Amor?” That made It seem like Persephone didn’t care for Amor but her feelings for Amor were more expressed through actions rather than being vocalized. Huo sighed In relief that Amor’s randomness actually came in handy for once since he disliked serious conversations. He almost forgot Lucario and her group were still there until the female Lucario spoke up saying that there will be no fighting and to eat. He liked the sound of both of that. No fighting and eating sounded really nice right now. He heard Amor whining at Persephone, “Let’s eat Pearly, come on please?” Persephone sighed, “Alright. Fine. But didn’t you eat already?” “Yeah but I’m a growing Numel! Need all the food to get big and strong right?” and continued looking at the other group asking, “Hey Houndy, Croaky, and Batty! Eat with us?” Huo added casually, “Yeah like our Mistress says, the more the merrier!” and turned back addressing the group, "Eh almost forgot to introduce ourselves. I'm Huo," and patted Amor's head, "This is my little sister, Amor." "I'm not little!" She retorted. "Fine fine. Younger sister. That fine?" She grumbled, "I guess..." He was about the introduce Pearly but she beat him to it. Persephone greeted them with her head up high saying, Persephone. A pleasure to meet all of you" as if asserting that she was the leader of the group, which obviously she was. But then again, Huo had to admit Zeal was also the leader even though he had less experience than her. He displayed more comradeship than her, which was much more important than just displaying power. Huo knew Persephone had trouble becoming close to the other pokemon so it would probably be a while until the other pokemon fully trusted her like they did with Zeal. He turned to the Lucario, “So Lu whatcha’ got?” referring to the berries that her group collected.	[atrb=width,140] words , 1378 music , Hella Good- No Doubt tagged , Ven/Open notes , ….
