Re: The Shadows Beneath [A Pokemon Rp]
Racing after her partner, the girl was surprised when Dramur switched course. Her neck length blue hair bristling for a second, she followed the black-furred creature as it sped off toward the Institute, only to once more switch her direction a few feet from it, once again heading straight for the Malum base. I wonder what's up with Dramur, she's acting awfully weird. Could it be Kage? She thought, remembering the older Umbreon that was connected to hers.
"Please be careful," she murmured softly.
Hearing the distant sounds of fighting, Neko pulled out an arrow and fired it; hitting an enemy in the shoulder. A gasp of pain escaping her, Neko stumbled for a moment before she fell to the ground, gently holding her head. "It...hurts..." She murmured, her vision blurring from the sudden headache.
Feeling Dramur butting her arm, she shook her head trying to say everything was fine. "Neko?"
Once more one of her dreams surfaced, and she was positive she'd already experienced this:
"You okay?" A voice murmured.
Looking around, she tried to find the person; yet she knew she should avoid them but their voice was so familiar. "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter, little one."
Growing frustrated by their refusal, she felt the salty tears course down her cheeks. Shaking her head, the trainer cried back, "Yes it does!"
"Come to me...."
"Where are you?"
"Come to me....."
"Come to me....."
Her eyes snapping open, Neko fought to control her anger. "Neko? Are you okay?"
Realizing she had scared Dramur, she nodded her head, surprised that she didn't know the voice even now. Pushing herself to her feet, Neko saw that Dramur didn't quite believe her. Opening her mouth to reply, she quickly shut it, remembering that after one of these epics she couldn't speak. Looking away frustrated, Neko quickly regained control and started walking again.
Her thoughts running free, she turned the final words over in her mind. How am I suppose to find this person if they don't tell me where they are? Dammit! This is so frustrating she thought angrily. Running again, she listened to the soft "thump" that was Dramur's paws hitting the ground. Watching as the Institute continued to fight Malum, Neko decided to use this distraction against both sides.
Silently slipping in, Neko dashed after Dramur; coming across a couple of guard she nodded her head. Growling, Dramur lunged at the guard, smirking to herself as the guard fell over...dead. Neko nodded when Dramur finished them, knocking out some and then killing others. Bolting down the corridor, she skidded to a halt to listen to the voices and what they were saying:
"What's your business in the throne room Zeke?"
"My business in the throne room is my business, I'm sorry, but it would be best for both of us if you stayed here, I don't need to hurt anybody else.."
"I'm able to take care of myself!"
A snarl slipping past her lips, Neko glared down at her feet. Kokoro, go figure she's still here! But who's Zeke? An ally of hers, or an enemy? she thought, confused by that cold exchange between the two. Closing her eyes, they once more snapped open at the low growl from one of their partners. Unsure of which one, she glanced down to see Dramur tensed too.
"Intruders!"
Freezing, she saw that Dramur was deeply hurt by this. "Ka.... Kage, why?"
Quickly grabbing her sword, Neko bolted around the corner and attacked Kokoro. It wasn't much of a surprise when Kokoro was able to block her. Back-flipping to break the stalemate, she glared at Kokoro, hatred burning in her eyes. If she could, Neko would've screamed at the laugh that escaped her opponent. "Aww, what's the matter Neko, you can't say anything?"
Shaking her head, she listened to the growls that Dramur was aiming at the rival Pokemon. Hearing laughter, she lunged once more at Kokoro, angry that the red head would taunt her so. Her blue gaze turning to ice, Neko looked over to Zeke, wondering if she'd have to fight him too.
