Thread: Raven Claw Academy Year I Start Up

Heracross yelped and skidded to a stop, nursing its burning eyes. "Oh, come on! Shake it off and move!" Tiarra shouted.

"I'm not suwpwised." Cassie said dryly, breathing deeply to quell a shaking fit.

"Psyshock!" Only to feel a similar pain Ninjask felt on it's carapace, only add with the pain of a super-effective hit.

"Scared me half to death." Silvia sighed out. "Oh wait, I'm already half dead. Yohohohoho! Skull joke!" The Ghost hybrid said, laughing like Brook.

Tiarra laughed heartily as Heracross appeared to be hurt by the Psyshock, then got up completely unfettered. "You're not gonna beat it that way! Go!" Heracross flickered for a microsecond, then charged again for a Night Slash.

The look on Cassie's face showed that she was less than impressed by the joke. "On days wike this, it doesn't pay to get out of bed." She muttered.

"Thunderbolt!" Alma yelled, getting the Gothitelle to fire a stream of lightning at Heracross, only to get slashed by it's attack.

"No, it does not." Silvia said, floating besides her.

Heracross stumbled back, leaking sparks, then changed form into a Zoroark. "Aww, I wanted it to last a bit longer." Tiarra whined. Zoroark just growled at the Gothitelle.

"Ah, a Zoroark, huh? Very convincing, I must say. Though the Night Slash was a little misleading. Not as bad as one using Flamethrower while as a Vaporeon." Alma noted, while Hoshiko got nervous. Zoroarks are vicious attackers that have the speed to back it up. However, their defensive stats weren't the best in the world...

"You mean you didn't know that Heracross can learn Night Slash?" Tiarra asked. "Never mind that. Taunt!" Zoroark glowed red and made a challenging motion.

"What caused this? I can't wemembew." Cassie asked. "Must have been bad.'

"Hey, I didn't get my Heracross to a tutor!" Alma said sheepishly.

Hoshiko gave Zoroark a flat look. She just pointed at Zoroark and fired another Thunderbolt attack.

"Oh, me giving you romantic looks." Silvia explained.

"Too bad for you, huh?" Tiarra said with a shrug. "Oh! Sucker Punch!" Without waiting for Tiarra to finish her command, Zoroark sprung forward, throwing a punch at blinding speed.

"I-oh. I hate to say it, but that is vewy wude." Cassie said stiffly.

Hoshiko's eyes widen and was floored by the punch. She got up and glared darkly at the fox Pokemon, and got up, testing if she got blood in her mouth. Satisfied, she walked over and gave the Zoroark a slap across the face.

Alma facepalmed. "Hoshiko, I really hope you don't get like this..." She sighed out.

"Ah, a stiffy, huh?" Silvia asked, floating upside down, thankful she's wearing jeans.

Zoroark was smiling for a moment, then her smile faded when she ended up getting turned around by the slap. She turned back around, glaring angrily, and responded with one of her own.

"Uh oh. Looks like this is deteriorating into a catfight." Tiarra said.

"You'we cweeping me out." Cassie muttering, averting her gaze.

Sure enough, it did, and the two female Pokemon were screaming at each other, slapping and kicking. Alma cracked her neck and went into the fray, unafraid of any wounds she might get.

After a bit of chaos... "Knock it off!" Alma yelled with a bit of a muffled tone, having Zoroark's ear in her mouth and having Hoshiko in a choke hold.

"Thank you." Silvia said with a smile. 'I'm a Ghost-type, Cass. You should know that those kinds of words hold a new meaning to me now.' She thought.

"Ugh... I need some watew." Cassie muttered, starting towards a fountain.

"What... the heck?" Tiarra said flatly, having no other words. "Zoroark, back over here. You should be ashamed." After a bit of work, Zoroark managed to disentangle herself and went to sit in front of Tiarra, cleaning her fur. "Thank you for breaking that up, by the way."

Silvia smiled and popped off her hand and levitated it to the drinking fountain while intangible, and put it through the water pipe, increasing the cold in "cold water".

"It's okay." Alma said, brushing off the dust off her outfit while inspecting the damage. Few cuts, bruising, a bite mark... Not too bad.

"Okay, now can we continue this like we got some sense, please?" Tiarra asked. Zoroark turned to her and nodded.

Cassie started drinking, and shivered a little from the cold.
