"Andreas," Melody whispered. "Andreas, I have to tell you-"
"Sh, dear. Don't worry, I won't let them take you," he replied to her, his mouth barely moving. "I'm not letting you go."
"I don't think you can do it," I said.
Andreas narrowed his eyes. "Why not?" he shot back.
"You love Melody. Your expression gives you away." I said as I pointed at him, trying to prove it.
"That's ridiculous. I could care less for you awful half-breeds." he said. I could tell he was lying but that still made me mad.
"Then prove it! Pull the trigger!" I said testing him.
"I will," Andreas retorted, pressing the cold metal harder against Melody's head. He paused for a moment. Suddenly, he whipped it forward, turning it against me. I heard it fire. I didn't want to but out of natural reaction I screamed.
"ANDREAS!" Melody screamed. "ANDREAS, NO! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!"
I was right luckily though, the gun wasnt really loaded. It apearentally did have blanks though.
"You loaded it with-" Melody begain.
"Blanks, yes," Andreas finished. "I'm not one for murder."
Melody sighed in relief. "I am glad you did," she said, "because if you had fired off a real bullet, you would have killed one of my friends."
"Huh?" Andreas blinked. "You know them?" He said, motioning to us.
Melody nodded. "They belong to a group of gijinkas that took me in after I fled the base. I would not have been able to evade capture this long if it wasn't for their help," she stated quietly.
"I see..." he murmured. "Well, your friends are allies of mine too, so I guess that settles it!"
"What? I thought your allegiance still stands with the Bounty Hunters," Melody responded, bemused.
"You're so silly, my lovely Mudkip! If I had to choose between you or the Bounty Hunters, I'd pick you every time!" Andreas exclaimed cheerily, ruffling her hair. 'Cute couple.' I thought. His expression soon became more serious, though, and he shifted his attention to us again. "I was just leading Melody to a nearby exit. You're all welcome to accompany us, if you wish," he told us. The others concidered it for a moment. I wanted to say no that we needed to save the others but Vixy spoke first.
"I guess-" Vixy begain, but her answer was cut short by a gigantic explosion that rocked the building. A low rumble accompanied it, which became increasingly louder over the next few seconds. It took only a short time for everyone to realize what was happening.
"The entire structure is collapsing sooner than I anticipated!" Andreas yelled over the deafening roar. "Hurry, everyone! Let's get out!"
I thought to myself, 'I need to save Kat though.' but I didnt say it.
We all ran for the door but before we reached it some of the ceiling fell and blocked the exit.
"Dammit!" Melody screeched. "Turn around! We're going to have to find another way out!" Her order did not need to be stated twice. She led us out into the arena, where we searched for a new exit, and I looked for Kat. Someone approached us through the thick, churning dust though. I looked closely and smiled. It was Kat.
"Guys!" she said. She seamed happy to see us. I was happy too, I had been so worried about her. I was glad she was safe. She started to come and hug me when the ceiling started to crack. Everyone jumped back. A piece of ceiling fell from above. Luckily, none were hurt, but a large chunk landed on Kat's foot. It looked like it hurt alot. Probably crushed a bone. moving the piece, she hobbled over to the group. "Let's get out of here! Or at least find some others!" So she looked for weak points in the wall that led out. Finnaly, finding a large crack, she used Fury Swipes, and scratched her was thru the rubble. Then she attempted to kick the hole with her good foot to make it larger, but she could barely hold herself up on the bad foot. "Some one else take over?" she asked urgently.
I ran up to where she stood at and focused on my hands. I had a new idea. I thought of my Multiple Shadow Ball technique and then focused on it. Instead of them being seperate Shadow Ball's, I wanted a single Beam. So I focused the energy all together and screamed, "Shadow Beam!" as a beam instead of balls appeared in my hands and hit the wall, clearing us a path.
"Now that's strange." The man Melody called Andrew wispered under his breath as we ran outside.
~Eva~
Please continue.
I hope this was alright. I really like making new move idea's from old moves and combo's though.
Kat woke up not much later. The back of her neck was amazingly sore. As she rubbed it, she felt a lump, and a scar. What were those bounty hunters planning? What ever it was, she wasn't chained to the table anymore. An accident? Maybe...
She got up, and using her cat eyes to see through the darkness, she found her way to a door. Judging by all the rumbling, she was still in the building. As she stepped outside the robot, she coughed from all the dust. It stung the wound on the back her neck. She wandered toward an exit she had noticed earlier. Up ahead, she noticed some shapes in the dust. At first, she thought they might be bounty hunters. But four of the five appeared to have strange body parts. Gijinkas? She walked closer. They stopped. As she got closer, she made out Vixy, Eva, Melody, a scientist, and a kid in a pichu costume.
"Guys!" she was so happy to see someone else. In fact, she was about to hug Eva, but suddenly, there was a crack above them. Everyone jumped back. A piece of ceiling fell from above. Luckily, none were hurt, but a large chunk landed on Kat's foot. It hurt a lot. Probably crushed a bone. moving the piece, she hobbled over to the group. "Let's get out of here! Or at least find some others!"
So she looked for weak points in the wall that led out. Finnaly, finding a large crack, she used Fury Swipes, and scratched her was thru the rubble. Then she attempted to kick the hole with her good foot to make it larger, but she could barely hold herself up on the bad foot.
"Some one else take over?" she asked urgently.
~Kat
If you can't find a door, make one! ^_^ What is up with the lump in Kat's neck, tho?! CONTINUE!
As soon as Andreas had issued his threat to shoot Melody, Eva, along with a Vulpix and Pichu gijinka, froze. The Eevee girl looked at him with a hint of worry in her eyes. Melody bit her lip. "Andreas," she whispered. "Andreas, I have to tell you-"
"Sh, dear. Don't worry, I won't let them take you," he replied, his mouth barely moving. "I'm not letting you go."
Melody opened her mouth again, but before she could speak, Eva peered over her shoulder and whispered something to her friends. Then, she faced forwards again, straightening her posture. "I don't think you can do it," she announced confidently. Andreas narrowed his eyes. "Why not?" he shot back.
"You love Melody. Your expression gives you away." She pointed at him with an accusing finger.
"That's ridiculous. I could care less for you awful half-breeds."
"Then prove it! Pull the trigger!"
"I will," Andreas retorted, pressing the cold metal harder against Melody's head. He paused for a moment. Suddenly, he whipped it forward, turning it against Eva. Melody's eyes grew as wide as plates. So it really is loaded?! she thought. His finger pressed down on the trigger. "ANDREAS!" Melody screamed. "ANDREAS, NO! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!"
It was too late. There was a tiny click as the pistol was initiated, followed by the unmistakable gunshot sound. Eva's shriek of terror rang in Melody's ears. The Mudkip whipped her head up, expecting to see the poor girl sprawled out on the floor, nothing more than a lifeless heap. Instead, Eva was still standing, completely unscathed. The Vulpix and Pichu behind her looked as equally startled as her. Something clicked in Melody's mind. "You loaded it with-"
"Blanks, yes," Andreas finished. "I'm not one for murder."
Melody sighed in relief. "I am glad you did," she said, "because if you had fired off a real bullet, you would have killed one of my friends."
"Huh?" Andreas blinked. "You know them?" He motioned to Eva and the others, who were still too shocked for words.
His partner nodded. "They belong to a group of gijinkas that took me in after I fled the base. I would not have been able to evade capture this long if it wasn't for their help," she stated quietly.
"I see..." he murmured. "Well, your friends are allies of mine too, so I guess that settles it!"
"What? I thought your allegiance still stands with the Bounty Hunters," Melody responded, bemused.
"You're so silly, my lovely Mudkip! If I had to choose between you or the Bounty Hunters, I'd pick you every time!" Andreas exclaimed cheerily, ruffling her hair. His expression soon became more serious, though, and he shifted his attention to Eva, the Vulpix, and the Pichu. "I was just leading Melody to a nearby exit. You're all welcome to accompany us, if you wish," he told them. They seemed to consider his offer for a moment.
"I guess-" the Vulpix began, but her answer was cut short by a gigantic explosion that rocked the building. A low rumble accompanied it, which became increasingly louder over the next few seconds. It took only a short time for everyone to realize what was happening. "The entire structure is collapsing sooner than I anticipated!" Andreas yelled over the deafening roar. "Hurry, everyone! Let's get out!"
All five of them sprang into motion, galloping for the exit door, which could be seen at the end of the hallway. Just before they had reached it, however, a section of the ceiling caved in, successfully blocking the escape route. "Dammit!" Melody screeched. "Turn around! We're going to have to find another way out!" Her order did not need to be stated twice. She led the group out into the arena, where they scoured the place, desperate to find a new escape route.
Someone approached them through the thick, churning dust.
Continue?
Melody.
I woke up next to Nyarth, still in the infirmary. I tried to sit up so I would wake up Nyarth. I felt I bit refreshed and my muscles weren't as sore anymore. I looked at Nyarth and smile. Ototo-chan..., I thought as I kissed him on the cheek. His eyes began to open.
"Estelle...?" he mumbled while his cute big eyes opened.
"Well hello there, Mr. Sleepy head." I smiled. "How are you feeling?"
"I'm kind of feeling much better- Eh? Where's Nina??" he asked me.
"I wish I could tell you myself. One minute she's here on that couch asleep, the next she's gone."
"Oh... Shouldn't we find her, Estelle?"
"I'm sure she's fine, where ever she must be. The others are here later all, ne?" I insured him. He smiled then yawned. I giggled and pat his head, then placed my forehead on his.
"Well, you shouldn't be contagious anymore, and the fever is going down heavenly. Even though... you're face seems to be flushed in bright red." I pointed out. He pushed back and covered his face in a panicky manner.
"No it isn't! I'm fine! Really!" he panicked. He's such a cute kid for a brother. Suddenly the ground shook. Things from the shelves dropped and the light flickered. I heard screams coming from outside the door, more like where the stage was. A sudden cold chill went down my spine. It was a psychic chill. Flashes of a clear vision appeared in my head. I heard voices to go alone with it, as well. My eyes went dull as I wrapped my arms around my and dropped to my knees, shivering.
"Wha...what is happening? .... A-Andreas? .... Now die.... Hon, Say something please.... No, Lux ... We have to get through these robots and soon ... Please, not again... Thunder Ball.... Are you ok? ... Team Galactic ..." I said, blankly. The tone of my voice was like I was being hypnotized by a magician.
"Estelle? ... Estelle! What's wrong?! Hey, speak to me!" Nyarth yelled while jumping off the bed. He shook me a few times to get my attention, however, that didn't snap me out of the vision. I continued to talk nonsense.
"Hoom, Hoom .... Oh site of blood excites me... I hit my target... You dare to hurt my brother ... Let me go... Come any closer and I'll pull the trigger ..."
"What trigger?! Estelle! Estelle!" Nyarth continued to yell. Tears started to fall as he yelled. He was terrified by the look in my eye. The vision ended and then started a new vision, a vision that was going to happen. I suddenly felt as if the vision was the real deal; as if it was now happening.
Vision:
Blood was dripping from a slash on my stomach, I was on my knees, and Nyarth was in my left arm with his eyes closed. My right and was up in the air, holding up my force field. The pain was just too excruciating to bear. Tears were rolling down my rosy cheeks. Faye was by my side, holding me. Also there was a Raichu Gijinka with Shupple and Asao behind me. I watched everyone fighting and getting hurt as I held back. A cowardly move, but I could understand because I was protecting my only brother. I saw horrid things, but what caught my attention was Lupe getting pulverized by giant robots. They held her by the ponytails and swung her wall to wall. I tried putting up a force field around her with my finger pointing towards her. No good. Another time she was swung into a wall. Blood ran down her forehead and mouth. The bounty hunter inside the robot then spoke to her. She smirked and pulled out a kunai knife from her pouch. My eyes widened and I screamed out to her with my hand reaching out...
I reached out my arm, like I did in the vision and screamed out my distant sister's name. "LUUUPPEEEEEEEE!!!!" This scared poor little Nyarth even more.
"ESTELLE ONEE-CHAN! Nyarth screamed out to me. That managed to wake me up from the horrid delusion. The shivers stopped instantly. I raised my hand to my face slowly and touched the tears, then turned towards Nyarth. His eyes were so filled with salty water and concern. I quickly wiped his face and hugged him tightly.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you. I swear... I'll protect you, younger brother..." I said to him. The rumbling of the floor continued. I quickly reacted and took Nyarth by the hand.
"Stand, Nyarth. We have to get out of this room." I told him, standing. He nodded, slightly in a daze, and stood. I opened the door and both of quickly dashed towards the stage.
On the way there I ran into the Raichu Gijinka I saw in my dream and called out to him.
"Hey, YOU! Raichu Gijinka! You're the real deal aren't you? And on Team B, correct?" I yelled. He nodded. "Well, come with me! We have to help our team mates."
"I don't need your help. I can help them myself, ya know!" He said crossing his arms and looking the other way.
"Well just standing there isn't such a great rescue plan." I told him. He flinched and ran my way.
"Okay, so I admit it. I didn't have such a thought out plan, huh? Well where are we going with this?" he said with an arm behind his head.
"We're going towards the stage to help defeat our foes, with unexpected attacks. Also you're going to be taking care of this kid here. His name is Nyarth. Treat him with respect or I'll bite off you're damn head." I said, sprinting towards the stage, holding Nyarth's hand. The Raichu Gijinka gulped and nodded with a grunt while running behind me.
When we got there saw Shupple and Asao lying on the floor. Fire was everywhere. Everyone was fighting against huge robots. I placed Shupple on my back and gave Asao over to The Raichu. "Take him Raichu Gijinka. He's a friend of mine."
"Hey, Da' name's Rickey." He said taking Asao and putting on his back. When I touched Rickey an electrical shock accrued. I was startled for a bit. What was that? I thought. Rickey also had a questionable face on. Shupple groaned a little.
"Watch... Out..." She said. I heard Nyarth yell and I looked at the laser beams coming our way.
"Thunder Bolt!" Rickey shouted and lightening shot out his body onto the laser beam. The attacks both evened out each other and a large puff of smoke came from the attack. I coughed a little. Then I heard Nyarth yell.
"Ahhh!" he yelled. The bounty Hunter Robot caught him in his giant arm.
"Ice Beam!" I heard someone call out. The ice beam froze up the giant arm and it smashed to a million pieces when that same person kicked it. Nyarth dropped in mid air, I jumped into the air with Shupple still on my back and caught him, then landing on my feet. Nyarth fainted from the squeezing on the robot. The person who helped Nyarth came fourth. It was Faye!
"Faye! Thank god." I greeted her.
"Estelle. Hey." She smiled. Suddenly I saw fire coming towards us but Faye was unable to see it since she was facing the other direction.
"Watch out!" I yelled, pushing her behind me. I used Psy Beam to counter the attack. The Psy Beam blocked the fire and hit the robot causing it to explode and killing the person inside it. On of the machine parts came flying towards me, like some sort of boomerang, and slashed my stomach, ripping my dress. The pain felt horrible. I dropped to my knees.
"Oh no, Estelle! You're hit!" Faye panicked. She then took shupple from off my back with a face, as if she didn't like the girl, and laid her on the floor. Rickey ran over with Asao and laid him on the floor along side of Shupple. More fire was shooting at us. I quickly raised my right hand and placed a huge lavender barrier around us, blocking the impact. Rickey watched in amazement and Faye woke up the two by freezing her hands and placing it on the forehead.
"Rickey..." I called out. "Tear my dress and use the cloth to attend to their wounds.
"Gottcha" he said and did so. I flinched a little as I still held up the barrier. The blood leaked more. I looked down at my little brother sleeping. I smiled.
"I told I would protect you.." I whispered. Rickey then tore more of my dress and wrapped it around my stomach.
"Wha- What are you doing, Rickey?" I said to him slightly blushing.
"Ya gotta stop the bleeding so you won't faint from blood lost. If that happens then we're all dead." he told me. His face was so close to mine that I could feel his breaths against my cheeks. My face became completely red. No boy pushed his way this close to my face before. I saw little yellow electricity streaks lightening up. Is what people call sparks from love? He pulled tightly and I flinched.
"Oh sorry." he apologize.
"N-No I'm okay... thank you so very much.." I blushed. He pulled back, stood up, and placed a hand behind his head, slightly red in the face himself.
"Uh.. Well No prob" he said and attended to Shupple and Asao, who were heavenly weak and confused. I heard a familiar yell from someone outside the barrier.
"Solar Beam!" she cried out. It was Lupe! She was fighting against so many robots at once. The robots swung at her. She dodged some attacks but some got her. One of the robots then grabs hold of her ponytails. I tried to place a force field around her with the waving of my finger but the robot attacking us powered up his attack causing me to push more force on the force field on me and the others. The Robots swung Lupe wall to wall. WAIT! My... My vision! It's coming true! The Bounty Hunter from inside the robot then spoke to Lupe.
"Ready to give up to stupid Lopunny?" he laughed. Tears rolled down my cheeks. I couldn't bear to watch anymore. Poor Lupe. My poor sister. She then smirked, which confused me.
"Heh... Heh.. Not.. Not even close to, jackass." She responded. She took the knife from her pooch and held it in the air. My eyes widened. Was she going to kill herself. With the hand I had holding up the force field I yelled out to her.
"LUUUPPEEEEEEEE!!!!" I cried. Lupe then cut her own ponytails off her head. Hair flew down and she felt to the ground, hitting hard. I was in shock. I then felt rage within me. I felt a certain power I never felt before. I spoke to Faye who was in shock of what she just seen as well.
"Faye. Listen to me. On my signal, run with the others to a safe location. Do not let anything happen to Nyarth and the others. Got that?" I demanded.
"Yes. I understand." she said.
"Got that Rickey? Take Nyarth from me and run when I tell you to." I said Rickey. He nodded and took Nyarth away from me. Faye got the others to at least to stand. I stood as well, keeping the barrier up still. When the robot stops attacking us I quickly gave the signal.
"NOW! RUN!" I took off the barrier and they all ran for it. I used Psy Beam on the robot and dashed towards Lupe. I got to her and knelt down. I picked her up and put her arm around my shoulder so she could stand.
"Es-Estelle? Ha.. I'm kinda pooped here." Lupe groaned.
"I could tell" I smiled.
"Hey you're eyes are watery. You've been crying? Oh you're such a damn baby” she chuckled a bit.
"Well you did scare me a little ya know. You should do that. And you should laugh at times like these." I told her.
"I can't help it." She smiled.
"How touching. So you think just because you blown up some of my robots you could rejoice, you stupid little Espeon?" One of the bounty hunters from within robots yelled to me.
"Fuck off." I cursed at him. My whole mood changed when I saw a lot of robots surrounding us.
"Well, now now. Kitty's got Claws" One of them laughed.
"I hate that damn line" I hissed.
"Don't underestimate us, nor the whole club, fuckers." Lupe growled.
"HA! Such words for such weak Gijinkas! Now prepare to DIE!" the leader yelled out to us. All of the robots' Laser Beam cannon's glowed red, it was charging.
"Shit." Lupe swore. I felt the rage inside of me grew stronger. I let go of Lupe causing her to fall. She then got up and hopped into the air. Then she kicked every single robot so their laser beam cannons would stop charging. It was my chance. Lupe hopped out the way, knowing it was my turn to attack. My cheeks became very rosy. Sparks camne out of them, as well as my hands. The words from my heart scream out to me.
"THUNDER BOLT!!" I screamed. A strong powerful electric force shot out of me and hit the robots and the arena. It had shown a beautiful bright yellow. The robots were sent flying and some exploded. I stopped the attack and began to drop. Lupe caught me in arms quickly. The whole place was shaking. The arena was coming down! I had to get everyone out of there.
*Phew!* someone please continue??
♥ Estelle
----------------------------------------------
Sorry for the length guys! Longest story yet, huh? ^^'
Please do continue! It's time to bring this plot to end by getting everyone the heck out of there!! :O
Bye The Way, the things Estelle was saying in her vision were from many of ya'll posts. ^^
Get the picture now?
I'm sorry for interrupting the story and causing a scene. I really don't mean to be rude or act like a spoiled brat or anything by saying this, but seriously, I really feel out of place with this club T_T.
I don't want to quit even though I have a lot of reason to and I'm trying to involve myself but barely ANYONE except maybe two or three people that know me actually help me get INTO the storyline if even a little bit and I'm really upset about this.
I don't mean to get on anyone or anything or throw a fit about not being in the storyline, but I'm barely even given a chance. And some of the people in this club that are inactive also WANT to be in the storyline but aren't really given a chance either. At most they are given maybe one or two lines then everything else moves ahead and leaves them behind because they really can't catch up or are too busy and then they get confused and are labelled "People who don't participate and should be kicked out of the club" when the reality might be they aren't given enough ground to pick up a storyline on.
"They should just enter randomly and at least post"
And who is actually paid attention to when someone does that? I mean, I've seen a ton of people do that and I've tried to, but normally they are ignored and have to either continue on their own, stop all together and give up on the storyline, or BEG for someone to include their character in their post.
"If they don't post, they aren't even trying, they at least need to get into the storyline."
I've been trying, and I've seen others too. From what I honestly see (and I'm not going to be rude and point out any certain person) if certain people include your character in it and it's a person that doesn't post to much to a person that posts a lot, the person that posts a lot will normally IGNORE that person and go off doing whatever they were doing in the first place and completely CUT THEM OUT OF THE STORYLINE.
"You're overreacting. This isn't true."
If you really think that, then prove me wrong and look back to when this storyline began. I really bet you can point out more than 5 instances of this happening.
I'm really sorry for posting this long rant and if I'm being a brat, I'm sorry for that too, but it really makes me upset when I try and enter the storyline and basically have to be a loner with no one or maybe just one other person at least trying to help me out, and then get ignored and lost in everything. It just really makes me feel hated and like I'm not worth much in the club...
Again, I'm really sorry if I'm being mean and interrupting the story for no reason... but I'm just tired of this...
