How the cookie crumbles (Open)

[Deleted]

    All of the military and police training in his life couldn't prepare him for what just happened.

        Diesel went out of control. A herd of wild Pokemon were on the rampage just outside of the academy's main campus, and as a trainer and security officer, he couldn't allow the enraged horde of Mightyena run onto campus. The Pokemon was known for it's violent nature, and among all things, were pack hunters and could over whelm a trainer if they weren't careful.
    The battle started out simple. It was Pilot and Auxru using their basic routine. Pilot would paralyze a Mightyena or two and Auxru would use Aura Sphere on them, knocking them out or chasing them away from a safe distance. Granite held Daxton's back and kept an eye out for any Pokemon that would try and run to the other side and get him from behind. But it was when another pack came into the picture was when Diesel came out of his ball. An angry flash cannon and a powerful cry from the Pokemon stunned and did some serious harm to the wild Pokemon, as well as Auxru.
    The Lucario saw no point in the senseless destruction being caused by Diesel and had gotten in front of him, attempting to use Close Combat and knock the Registeel back. But before Auxru could strike, Diesel clawed out and struck Auxru on the back and chest, knocking him to the ground. A cry of pain came from Auxru and that's where Daxton drew the line. The officer never thought that Diesel would lash out at it's own team-mate... it had to have felt threatened when Auxru tried to attack him and stop his defensive attacking on the Mightyena. Returning all but one Pokemon to their respectful Poke-balls. Worried, Daxton took his shirt off and ran to the Lucario's side heaving him into his arms. The injuries weren't visible which meant they were internal, and Auxru was in a lot of pain, given away by his cries and the fact that he was swatted by a pure-Steel Legendary.

    Daxton nearly ran through the sliding doors of the Poke-center with sweat pouring down his body. The run felt like it took forever, with Auxru's weakening cries and the tiring strain put on his body by having to carry him and run up an down hills. "Somebody help!" He cried out, still holding the beaten and wounded Lucario in his arms. Daxton was to frightened to put Lucario in his ball, if he was in the ball, he couldn't watch his condition and that would just make things worse on him... but right now, time began to stand still for the ex-soldier. The shallow breaths that came from his child-hood friend brought tears to his eyes, but he still held back the tears so he could stay strong for his Pokemon, although Auxru could probably feel how his master felt.

I felt like I had to add a sense of urgency to this site, there really hasn't been one yet. ... FIRST..

[Thea Lynn Daniels]

Thea had been out doing her own thing, hanging with Boone and Kiara like any other day. All of a sudden she heard a loud commotion, looking around for the source. Before she could really take in what had happened she saw Daxton running towards the Pokemon Center. His Lucario in his arms. "What..." She quickly stood. 

Boone noticed Thea's attention had been turned away from them and towards Daxton. There he was, that stupid guard guy but then he noticed an object that he was holding as he ran. "Auxru?" His eyes got a bit wide and he wanted to tear up but refused as he held a ego of a big tough guy. His first reaction was to jump on Kiaras back. "Go Kiara! Follow Daxton and hurry! Auxru is hurt!"

The Persian's ears perked up, looking at Daxton. At the Panchams words she quickly darted after the guard. She didn't like the Panda but she understood how he was feeling. She knew that he considered Auxru a close friend and was worried. "It'll be okay Boone!"

Thea ran after Boone and Kiara to the Pokemon Center behind Daxton worried for the Lucario but Daxton as well. She could only imagine what this would feel like and had hoped it wouldnt happen with her or her pokemon. Once inside she watched as Boone ran over to Daxton. Making little noises. Worried.

[Athene Theïkos]

Kerberos was running with Athene again they were away from the school when he scented some Mightyena. The pokemon didn't think much of it until the scent came closer and some strays lingered closer to him and Athene Kerberos stopped and let a rumble escape his chest to signal his trainer. Athene stopped immediately and fell immediately into a battle ready stance. She looked to the woods around her then back to Kerberos, looking to him to tell her where the danger was. His senses were far better than hers. She felt the adrenaline from the oncoming danger fill her and urge the fight or flight instinct. She had long since trained herself to act on the former, and only on the latter under certain circumstances. 

She saw the houndoom's face contort with fierceness, using his size and tail to indicate he was the better pokemon and all others should obey. Athene saw two shapes come out from the trees. They were smaller, perhaps outcast pokemon that lingered near a pack for scraps. Where was the pack? She wondered. Kerberos' hackles rose when the two dark pokemon did not back down. Finally, she looked to her pokemon. "Use roar," she said, her voice was commanding but not loud. Kerberos roared feircely at the two of them. The smaller of the two bolted away, but the other lunged for Kerberos biting the hell hound in the leg. Kerberos turned with the look of fury on the Mightyene, intending to convey that attacking him was a bad idea. "Flamethrower." ((OOC or some other fire equivalent. Idk what Kerberos has)). Kerberos opened his mouth to release a powerful burst of flame. The flame hit, but the Mightyena let go but otherwise seemed unphazed. The canine creature came back with feint attack. Kerberos tried to jump away but the hit was unavoidable. As the mightyena was coming in Athene saw the chance for a sure hit. "Thunderfang now!" Kerberos landed it, and the pokemon shuddered as the paralysis set in and the damage took it's toll. Before the creature could get control of its muscles Athene commanded, "Feint attack!" Kerberos his the pokemon with a sure attack and left the Mightyena unable to fight for longer. "How's the leg?" she bent down to inspect the houndoom. The leg didn't look that bad, but he wouldn't be able to run at full speed. Athene returned him to his pokeball. She was a bit nervous about running without him to tell her where the danger was, but this would be faster. Then she started running. She had heard some yips and howls further off. Some of the faculty should know in case this got out of hand. 

She only froze when she heard an explosion of a flash cannon. "Shit," she said in a hushed exclamation. She only waited a moment to assess any danger around her before she high tailed it again. She made it to the pokecenter, and found a crying Daxton with a very injured Lucario in his arms. Holy shit! What the hell did that?! Athene did her best to keep the shock from her face but she jumped to action. She looked to Daxton. "Okay pull yourself together and tell me what happened! I just heard some pack of mightyena out there and then a flash cannon. We need to deal with that." She saw the girl from the library also at the pokecenter. "Get a nurse! ASAP! Daxton, lie the Lucario down so he doesn't loose more blood then he has to." She wasn't quite aware she was barking at a security guard. She just saw Daxton disheveled and disoriented in what could potentially be a dangerous situation.

    Daxton took several deep and almost panicked breaths, but that only made his adrenaline rush more. Now shaking more than before, he placed his Lucario on the ground and removed his shirt from his torso, revealing swelling and uneven movement of the chest. Placing a hand on his Pokemon's head, he stroked him gently, talking in low gruff tones. "Hold on buddy, they're gonna help you out." Folding his shirt tightly, he tucked it into his pocket and freed up his hands to help try and pet his friend into a calm state. Even though the Lucario was stoic, the pain was still causing him to attempt hyper-ventilation, which wasn't working out with the state of his bone structure.
    "The Flash Canon was Diesel.. and Auxru got caught up in it. Not to mention that he was swatted by it..." Looking down at his friend again, he kept his hand on his head, petting him, trying to calm him down. "There's no more danger... what Diesel didn't devastate is just a wounded memory now." Solemnly, he looked Athene in the eyes with his own blood-shot eyes. It wasn't like Daxton to cry, it never was. Even when the Registeel sliced his leg wide open, almost killing him. This was a moment that he never trained for, although he should have expected it. Diesel was unstable and he should have seen that coming eventually. Now thanks to his unpreparedness, he was in tears with a wounded child-hood friend.
    He didn't even register Thea and her Pokemon following him... he as much to focused on getting Auxru to the Pokecenter. Rather than looking around, he had kept his mind set on the destination and helping his Lucario.

[Thea Lynn Daniels]

Thea watched as Daxton stayed next to Auxrus side until Athene came in to the center as well. Her words were to quickly find a nurse. Thea nodded before running towards the back to find one, Kiara running on ahead, leaving Boone behind with Daxton and Athene.

Boone looked at Auxru, wanting to cry but wouldn't. He was suppose to be tough but when he looked and saw Daxton crying, it made him spill. Daxton was tough yet he cried. Looking back to Auxru he sat by him. "You're going to be okay Auxru. Thea and Kiara will find a nurse. She'll make you all better." He smiled at the Lucario and the truth was, Boone had no idea if he was going to be alright or not but he wanted to stay positive. He wanted to feel that there could be hope for Daxtons friend.

If there was one thing Kiara didn't like, it was another injured Pokemon. Especially one that she didn't have any issues with. She had dashed ahead of Thea looking through the rooms till she came to one with the person they were looking for. "Thea!" She pawed at the nurse till she had her attention and Thea slid in. 

Thea quickly explained the situation as all three came running back to Daxton and the others. Thea pointed to Auxru. "The Lucario needs help." She said as she moved back away, giving them the space needed as Kiara sat next to Boone watching.

    He was only just arriving for his shift, and hadn't yet come out from the back when Fritz started to hear some sort of commotion out Iin the center's lobby.  The German nurse frowned a bit to himself, before making his way out to see what was going on.  On his shoulder Orville perched, the pidgey ready to take up a perch in the lobby, as was his custom.  At his heels followed Funkeln, the Audino folloing along on her back legs.

   He hadn't expected a lobby full of panicked trainers, and a wide eyed receptionist trying to sort Iit out.  Fritz was usually soft spoken, especially for a German, but in this case it was much too important to get things under control.

   "Unless you are the trainer of the patient, get your pokemon and go sit ", he commands, not angry but stern, his accent likely adding to the severity of the moment.  From there, as he called to technicians to prepare the injured pokemon to be taken to the back and be stabalized, and for someone to get ahold of the doctor on duty.
   "We're going to do all we can for your Lucaro, but I need you to try to focus, and tell me what happened. Anything you can remember could help."  It was easy enough to tell who he should be talking to, and likely by the end of Daxton's tail, he would have the lady upfront contacting the rangers to see to the well being of the Mightyena pack, and possibly test them for rabis, as it wasn't like a pack to continue a direct attack on a mechanical foe.  Once he had what he needed, he would offer a light pat on the other's hand, and reassurance that his pokemon was in good hands, before disappearing back to the back with his Audino to assist.

    Daxton's hands shook a little from the stress of the moment and he could hear his heartbeat slow down and throb in his ear. Standing up, he looked around and watched as his friend was lifted from his arms and taken to the back. "I...." Stopping his self from completely panicking, he took a deep, slow breath and turned towards the new comer, recognizing him as Fritz.

    "It started as the usual patrol of course. Just walking with Auxru, my Lucario, and letting Granite, my Bastiodon stretch his legs... also using him as a shield for my back cause I had heard some howling and yipping in the distance... Going towards the sound I discovered an.. oddly straight forward pack. They just looked at us for a bit and began to attack. It went on for about a minute before Diesel, Registeel, came out of his ball. From there, he attacked the rest of the pack in a much to violent manner and when he did, I guess Auxru didn't like how violent he was being and charged at him to stop him. When he went to use Force Palm, Diesel swiped at him and struck him in his torso with obviously enough force to knock him back." Blinking a bit, he wiped his face with the back of his gloved hand, taking another deep breath at the same time.

    Watching him and his Audino go towards the back, Daxton decided it would be best to go outside and get some fresh air with Granite. Walking outside, he released his Bastiodon and he came out, almost panicked and then proceeded to calm down when he noticed where they were at now. "Easy buddy." Knowing he couldn't understand what he was trying to say, he took the grumble from the Pokemon as concerned and reached out to pet his head, giving him a firm pat.

    Pilot and Emery were also out of their Poke'balls now at this point and so was Mica of course. But Diesel was commanded to stay in his ball. The officer hoped that the Registeel would take it as a punishment and learn from it, but that was only hoping. He would have to go and train with just Diesel. It was dangerous, but it would have to happen. He'd have to find someone who'd offer to watch his Pokemon while he was gone, request time off and go to a far away place to train and hopefully develop a deeper connection with the violent and volatile Pokemon, and hopefully that would give him more control over him.
