The CERULEAN Team

Spencer laid Jewel down in the bed. He then snuck a kiss on her forehead. He knew he was taking advantage of her unconsciousness, but he had to. He then left the room, closing the door behind him. He then turned the AC on so Jewel was more comfortable. He then strolled to join Kira and Yagami. Oh! and Jazz too. All he saw in the main room was Yagami playing with Jazz. Spencer was glad to see then playing together.

The young Eevee ran around, before cuddling into Yagami. He smiled at it's excitement. It's reply to his question of name received only another "Ee Bai" which Yagami could still not figure out. He placed his necklace on to the young Eevee's neck allwong it to wear it for a short while. Yagami decided, that in lack of anything else to call it, he would refer to it as Ee Bai, till someone told him it's real name, unless, that was it'a real name?

"Hows that, Ee Bai? Do you like wearing the necklace?"

Yagami began patting Ee Bai's stomach as it purred happily.

Kira, unable to get sleep without Yagami near her, hopped off of the bed, and came out into the main room, hoping to ask him to sleep on the bed with her. As she poked her head around the doorway, she saw him playing with a young Eevee, which Kira had no problem with, she smiled happily, till she saw that Yagami was not wearing his other half of there necklaces! Where was it!? Suddenly, a small flash of light caught her eye, and she saw that the Eevee was wearing the necklace.

"How could you?"

She said sadly.

"How could you just take it off and give it to a child as a play toy, to damage? Are you giving it to him, are you? Not keeping it? Don't love me anymore? Is that why? You're just trying to get rid of it and me!?"

Kira was enraged now, jumping to conclusions, her tiredness making her lose all self control and logical thinking. She began to use her Psychic attack to throw Yagami against the wall. He flew hard into it, and then collapsed, as Kira seethed, giving him a deadly look.

Voices were calling out to him. Unintelligible to the Harbinger’s deteriorating mind and yet laced with the promise of his every desire; fun, a game.

Growlithe wore a macabre smile, jaw forever agape as molten fire splashed to the ground with a hiss with each of the creature’s frenzied footsteps. Play! Play! Play! He simply couldn’t miss an opportunity for a playmate, the creature the embodiment of twisted excitement as he sprinted down the empty hallways, desperate to find his new friends. The voices were becoming louder, each syllable sending another jolt of excitement racing down the Harbinger’s spine.

He was upon them in an instant, rocketing into the room and barrelling into the first creature to catch his frantic eye; a lone umbreon. Growlithe’s distorted, joyous yipping echoed about the room as he slammed the unsuspecting dark-type into the wall, pouncing onto his playmate’s battered form to commence the game. The creature was screaming as Growlithe’s fire cascaded over him, the Harbinger’s claws raking mercilessly into the boiling flesh, tearing burning chunks out of the canine’s flailing body. Growlithe saw only glee in his victim’s slow-burning features, his own childish laughter exploding as uncontrollable flames engulfed both creatures.
“PLAY!” The Harbinger screeched excitedly, the fire lighting his burnt frame – the fur entirely absent from his face as the flames spread to darken his already diminishing pelt. He grinned maniacally into the umberon’s melting face, his victim’s eyeballs now dribbling from their sockets as the intense heat transformed a once healthy creature into an unrecognisable, charred pulp – limbs contorted in agony, the light of its rings forever lost.

The umbreon was dead long before Growlithe realized, the Harbinger suddenly leaping away as if shocked at the outcome. The flames on his own gruesome form were dying away, the scent of burning flesh filling the room as he looked down at the motionless corpse he had sought to befriend. The game was over.

Growlithe’s ears drooped knowing that his fun had come to a premature end, yet could never remain disheartened. The Harbinger knew that there was always another friend just waiting around the corner. Suddenly excited by this prospect, the demonic canine sped away, yipping playfully in pursuit of the perfect playmate.

Yagami slammed into the wall, and he felt his body become tired, from their previous escape. He wouldn't be able to fight her, not that he planned on it, but he also wouldn't be able t stop her from killing him. He couldn't believe how she had acted, or rather, overreacted.

"Kira, don't be ridiculous, you know how much I care for you, how much I love you, what damage could he do to it? I would never intend on getting rid of it, and never would I ever want to be rid of you. I love you."

Yagami looked at Kira as she seethed, she was so angry he could almost feel it. Ee Bai took the necklace in his mouth, drool dripping on it, and padded his way to Kira. Yagami was unsure of what she would do, but before she did anything, she sensed a blast of pure pain, which knocked her over.

"SPENCER! I can hear him screaming, psychically, I hear his pain, I feel it!"

Kira began screaming, then stopped. Dizzy, she tried t stand and toppled over.

"I can't hear his thoughts, when I try, I hear nothing, either my psychic Espeon powers are failing, or Spencer's dead!"

Kira cried as she spoke those words. She didn't like him, but she didn't think he was going to die any time soon, if she had, she wouldn't have hated him so much, only pitied him, and tried to save him.

"Kira!"

Yagami felt a burst of adrenaline, no longer feeling any pain, he bolted over to Kira's side, and heard her speak. He heard her speak through her tears horrible words.

Spencer's dead.

He couldn't be.

He shouldn't be!

Kira, are, are you OK? We need to get out of here, before whatever killed him kills us! Looking up, Yagami saw flames, with Kira on the floor barely able to stand, how were they going to get out, and save E Bai too? Yagami couldn't carry both of them? He had no chance!

A sickening smell wafted through the room, worse than any smoke could ever make. Burn't flesh. Yagami recognised it from a time when Kira had saved the two of them from a Charmeleon zombie. She had used her powers to redirect it's flames back at it, and it's body ignited. It was not a smell you ever forgot.

Yagami began trying to pull Kira towards the exit.

"Come on, Ee Bai, we have to get out!"

Yagami forgot entirely about the Glaceon who had entered the building with Ee Bai, but Kira had not. She sensed something else was alive in the building, she knew it was the Glaceon who was with the Eevee pup. She said nothing. That woman would not take her man. She would never let someone like that Glaceon take Yagami away from her. He was hers, and that Glaceon could die for all she cared.

Making their way out with Jazz, they got out of the fire and made it to safety on the grass. Kira slipped off of the tired Yagami, who was almost unconscious himself. It had taken him too long to get out while carrying Kira, and he had breathed in a large amount of smoke.

"Ee Bai, are you OK? Did you breath in much smoke?"

Yagami coughed and spluttered the words out, as he tried to take oxygen back into his lungs, and let the smoke out. Before he could receive an answer, he fell unconscious.

Kira felt heartbroken, worried that her love was dead, but after focusing her Psychic, she sensed small thoughts in his head, barely anything, but there were still thoughts floating around, which meant that he was still alive, for now, at least.

The Glaceon leaped out of a window, which shattered moments before her exit, drawing Kira's attention to it. Kira was in only slightly better shape than Yagami, but she was at least still conscious for the next short while. She saw the Glaceon, and and her heart dropped, meanwhile her anger flew up.

"You made it out, and here I was hoping you wouldn't have. Why did you bring his body out? He's gone, his soul has left, that's just a body, not worth saving. You should have left it to be destroyed by he fire, now, even if we bury it, some undead might dig it up and eat it. Or worse, turn it."

She looked at the Glaceon.

"Go away, I don't want to see you here."

She looked at the wound on the Glaceon's shoulder, and saw blood coming from it.

"Be careful, that blood might attract an undead or two."

Yagami was plagued by horrible dreams, of fire, and death, of Kira dying. His necklace took over multiple times, appearing in his face,, becoming the centre of his dream. Kira catching fire and dying, Ee Bai burning to death. Horrible dreams.

As he swam into consciousness, the world still spinning and his vision blurred, he saw a large pink image a wee while ahead, and there was something near it. Something blue. Yagami was unsure of what the blue thing was, but he hoped that the pink was Kira. As his vision cleared, he realized that it was Kira, and the blue was a Glaceon. The Glaceon which he had left behind in the burning building. He had completely forgotten. It was now as his memory returned to him. He half expected her to kill him, but it looked like she was talking with Kira. He felt his neck to hold the necklace, hoping it's cool metal would calm him, and help him focus on things other than the burning building which he lay beside. Finding nothing there, he was shaken back to reality. At least he wasn't focusing on the flames, but now he was worried of his necklace. He felt heartbroken without it. He was fine taking it off but that time it was within his sight. There was no problem till now. What had happened to it? Had Ee Bai dropped it? Was it in the burning building? Yagami hoped not.

Yagami had no time to try to stop Ee Bai, he had ran into the building to fast for him to try, but the Glaceon wasted no time, and leaped through a shattered window. Yagami stood, though in pain, and rushed towards the building, and climbed through the window which Glaceon made it through. He hadn't the energy left to jump through, and scrabbled through, getting cuts on his stomach. He crashed down on the floor, his vision obscured by smoke and flames instantly. His lungs seized up as he tried to breathe, smoke filling his lungs, poisoning him quickly. He lay on the floor, looking around hoping to see his necklace, or, especially, Ee Bai or the Glaceon. A blotch of blue appeared in his line of vision, but his eyes turned black with smoke, taking away any colours he saw. Minutes later, he felt himself being lifted up, and he realized that he had passed out.

Kira saw everyone go into the burning building, last was Yagami. She was sure he couldn't possibly survive in there. He was not in the best condition. She followed, and used her senses to find him. Her psychic powers were strong, and she found him easily enough. She lifted him up, and laughed at the thought that moments ago, he was carrying her out, while now she was carrying him out. It was not the best situation to be laughing in, but she couldn't help it. She son enough was at the window, with him out after she had pushed him out. Now, she had to find Ee Bai, and maybe the Glaceon, though it would be best if she didn't save the Glaceon.

Yagami felt a thump as he collapsed to the ground, barely able to breathe, smoke filling his lungs. His eyes opened as he caught a flitting glance of the sky, with smoke rolling over it, then darkness as he fell into a dark abyss of unconsciousness. Kira stumbled around, smoke stinging her eyes, unable to hold them open, she began relying on her psychic senses, hoping they would giver her a constant picture of the room surrounding her, and the people. There! A quick movement in a room straight forward. She had to be careful where she moved, she felt a battle between something large, and something, something like the Glaceon. She crept past the battle, and made her way to the room where the small Eevee kit was. "Quickly, let's get out of here!"

She used her psychic powers and found and picked up the necklace, put it on herself, and hoped that the small kit would follow, as she walked out through the door something large fell on top of her, pinning her to the ground. A Venasaur, which wasn't moving. Kira was unable to sense any life coming from it, it was dead.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Kira screamed in pain, it was too heavy for her psychic powers to move, and it was right in the middle of her, so she was unable to twist out from under, she was completely trapped.

"Someone please help!"

She called out hoping someone would save her.

Kira felt a moment of joy when the beast shattered, till she heard the voicew of her saviour asking if she needed carried.

"No! I'm fine, I could've moved it on my own, I didn't need you, and I still dont!"

Kira tried to stand, but found her leg injured, just perfect!


Kira managed to stand for a moment on three of her legs, but she couldn't figure out how to walk like that, and stumbled over again. Great, now she would have to be carried by the Glaceon. Death by flames, or be saved by Glaceon a second time? Tough choice, but Kira decided she would rather survive. Besides, that way she could stop Glaceon from making Yagami fall in love with her. Yagami was Kiras, and only Kiras!

"On second thought, I think I might need a little help please."

The Glaceon helped Kira outside, much to her dismay, and saw the Eevee kit run to Yagami. She had to wait for her leg to heal before they could try to leave, which was something she desperately wanted to do. She lifted the necklace off of herself and placed it back on Yagami. She hoped he would wake soon. 

She lay down, cuddling in with Yagami, and wrapped their tails around each other, so that their rings were touching. She promptly fell asleep, hoping that when he stirred, she would also wake thanks to the tail wrapping. Closing her eyes, she drifted out of the conscious world, and into the same sleepy world of Yagami. She did not bother thanking the Glaceon for it's help,. after all, it had been the Glaceon's fault of her being trapped, so it should be equal, the Glaceon trapped and then free Kira, no thanks, or apologies, necessary.

Ace watched the small group, surveying the damage to the pokemon center, and taking a count on who was there. An Umbreon, an Espeon, a Glaceon and an Eevee kit. None had the look or smell of the undead. Living ones then. He thought, looking towards his brother, who surveyed the group the same way he had "Ezio, should we introduce ourselves?" He whispered but the umbreon shook his head "No. Not yet. Lets see if they can spot us first." He said, and Ace nodded. Test their skills, the first rule of recruitment; See what the rookie's limits were.

Kira awoke abruptly, a feeling of danger prickling over her, she looked around, and could see no one, but, after using her Psychic powers, she could sense that there were two Pokémon nearby. She didn't bother to check and see whether or not they were undead, she used her exhausted psychic powers to pick Yagami up, and she walked out into the forest when the Glaceon and kit looked away, hoping she would not be seen. Leave the others to fend for themselves.

"Goodbye."  Whispered Kira in a malicious tone. She was glad to be rid of them. Once in the forest she began to run, get as far from that place as possible, so that they couldn't get back there. So that Yagami,when he awoke, couldn't get back there.

Hours later, Yagami did awake to find himself lost in the forest, no way to tell where he was, the only thing he recognized being Kira.

"Kira, where are we? What happened to Cerulean and, and to Ee Bai and the Glaceon!?" 

Kira got up and yawned. She explained that an undead attacked while he was asleep and that the other two ended up dying in the fire, while she saved him, and she only managed to escape by running into the forest, and did not remember what paths she took in her haste.

With no option left, they continued on their way, Yagami disheartened and depressed at their deaths. He felt like he could have done something differently, but unfortunately, it was too late.

((OoC:Sorry, but I have to make a leaving post, I need to deactivate these two while I get things sorted outside of EJ. Bye. And welcome Ace and Ezio.))
