[ Talking doesn't help and they're not hesitating to attack on sight, but Yellow continues to try her best to avoid fighting with the new fish monsters. Even when she gives orders to her Pokémon, it's only to keep

[Amane's been out, helping to clear out the fish monsters with Maziodynes, since electrical spells seem more effective. The maiden made sure to be careful of where she's stepping as she cast magic. Water do conduct electricity, after all.

She looks around as she go, noticing a young person and her strange creatures. They don't seem to be hostile, like the fish monsters. However, Amane notice that she seem to be tired and makes her way over.]

[strawhathealer]

[ The Raticate and Dodrio take a look at the newcomer, and after deciding that she very likely wouldn't be siding with the fishies right now, they start walking over to the newcomer, using their attacks to make them dodge or immobilize them in some way.

Freesk, the Butterfree, follows them while holding their Pikachu friend and Yellow, who scans the area around them before looking at the person who just arrived.

Her words trail off at the end of her sentences, but hopefully she'll be understandable. ]

Ah, please be careful here. There are a lot of them coming from over there. Maybe even more by now...

[twiceinhabited]

[She nods. Unless they can stop more fish monsters from coming in, this invasion would be almost endless.]

I will. Please go inside a building until this is over.

[Amane glance around for any approaching fishes. When she see one, magical energy gathers in her hand and the maiden throw the electric spell at it.]

[strawhathealer]

[ So the buildings are safe...? That's a bit surprising, but well, if it's true, then that's great! Chuchu points towards a nearby building, saying that they all should head over there. ]

Thank you, miss! And you should go inside too... It really does get exhausting after a while.

[ As tired as she is, she's much more worried about what will happen to others who stay out for too long. ]

[Onion Knight notices the animals first in his search . And while his first thought is that the fish creatures have brought other allies, he dismisses it quickly when he sees them working against each other. But then he hears the voice commanding them and realises, someone's out there. A pokemon trainer, maybe? They're the only people he knows in Vatheon that command creatures.

But, where--?

... they're flying?

Forget that; he can think about that later! Running towards the animals on the ground, he channels magic through his sword and calls down bolts of lightning to strike the nearest fish monsters, helping to clear the path the animals have started to make.

Waving his free arm to grab the trainer(?)'s attention (and possibly some of the fish monsters), he shouted]

This way!

[strawhathealer]

[ Yellow looks a little shocked at the sudden lightning and subsequent shout, but she quickly recomposes herself before asking her Pokémon to make their way towards the boy. She's certainly more worried about the fish creatures changing targets to him, that's for sure. But what's done is done.

As Dodrio and Raticate continue to clear the path below them, Yellow, Butterfree and Pikachu do their best to make their way past the creatures. Occasionally the Pikachu attacks with lightning whenever a creature gets too close to them for their comfort.

When Yellow finally gets close enough to talk without raising her voice to high, she starts talking (and making it even more obvious she's feeling drowsy). ]

Thank you, mister... Are you okay...?

[not_for_cooking]

[He can take it! He's a knight! Again, he calls lightning...]

Heaven's fury!

[...striking down two more fish monsters. One gets too close for him to successfully cast another Thundaga, so Onion Knight stabs it with his sword once it's in range. It's not as effective as his spells, though, so it takes a few more stabs before the monster goes down.

When the trainer calls out, he briefly looks up. Now that the trainer is closer, he can see a boy, about his age maybe. Looking like he's close to exhaustion. Best to get him to safety; he doesn't know how well the pokemon perform without instruction.]

Don't worry about me! [He can always outrun these fish if it looks like there's too many to handle.] Just get inside a building! They don't seem to enter those!

[strawhathealer]

[ Fighting back the urge to close her eyes, Yellow orders another barrage of attacks from her Pokémon meant to push everyone around them a few feet away. ]

Sorry, I overdid it... But everyone got hurt, so I had to heal them quickly.

[ She was too far from the Pokémart, and on top of that, they could follow her there... Her only choice then was to heal them all at once with her powers despite the strain. Not that she regrets it at all.

Yellow nods. She wants to argue, but well, the boy's right. With her condition, going to a building's her best course of action now. ] Thank you! Still, there's too much to handle alone for too long, so please be careful.

[ Just like Yusuke and him had agreed, Kuwabara was running amidst the streets of Vatheon looking for anyone and everyone that could possibly require help. He also had trained most of his live and the few years spent as Spirit Detectives and fighting demons insanely, this was nothing. He notices a person not too far from him this time as he rounds a corner in a nearby alley.

They looked like they could use some help, so he's going to run ahead towards the girl and swing his fists roughly at a few of the fish monsters before he tries to catch up to her. The poor girl looked like she was going to pass out soon or something! He yells at her to get her attention kind of. ]

HEY!!!!

[strawhathealer]

[ That certainly catches Yellow's attention, all right! She looks over to the newcomer and immediately (well, close to it at least) gives orders to her Pokémon. While the kid may be tired, she certainly is trying her hardest to stay awake as long as the creatures are around. ]

Ah, Dodosk, Ratty, please help him too! Freesk, let's go this way. And Chuchu, can you help those two?

[ And with that, they start traveling more towards his direction, trying to keep the creatures as far away from them as possible. ]

[kazumaai]

[ Good. He's trying to get her attention so she could get as close to him as possible. That way he can protect her. He didn't want anyone here to get hurt because there were insane monster invasions going around. He swings at another and kicks one. After a few seconds he's got a lot of them down. He finally pulls out his Reiken because he was getting tired of this. ]

Reiken!

[ He's working on slashing apart the monsters so that they would be able to clear a way for her to get to him. The orange energy sword comes out of thin air as he calls and swings it at a few more creating various numbers of slashes. ]

Hang in there I'm almost there!

[strawhathealer]

Please be careful, mister! There's a lot of them coming from where I came from!

[ The sudden sword surprises Yellow too, but well, now's not the time to dwell on it for long. She and her four Pokémon weave through the creatures as quickly as they can, with Dodrio heading the group's advance. There are still a few moments when her eyelids feel heavy, but with someone else around, she has even more incentive to stay awake and aware.

This would be better if she could call her Golem and Omastar to help, but with Golem weak towards water and Omastar being a water Pokémon, they weren't as effective in playing keep away as the others, despite their better training. But maybe she should call them out soon to help him... Choices, choices... ]

[xdrunkmanjuu]

Yellow! Hey Yellow!

[ There is a donkey kick that knocks out one fish creature and another sent sprawling by a well timed fan smack. ]

Don't fall asleep here!

[strawhathealer]

A-ah... Mokona?

[ Freesk flies Yellow and Chuchu as close he can to Mokona without leaving Dodosk and Ratty too far away. ]

You're right... Sorry, I think I might have overdone it...

[xdrunkmanjuu]

It's dangerous if you do! If you're tired, we should get you back home! Or at least to the clinic!

[ Another dodge and kick from the manjuu who seems to be holding his own pretty well for a tiny thing. ]

C'mon!

[strawhathealer]

It's okay, I'm not really hurt... Just sleepy... And please be careful, Mokona. There's a lot of them...

[ Why would she question such badassery from a tiny thing? It's like normal where she comes from!

Nevertheless, Yellow nods and with her signal, they start following after Mokona. ]

[neutralblue]

[Somehow he had managed to stay out of trouble for the most part, although being able to attack from a distance helped. Still, whatever concentration he may have had went right out the window once he saw Yellow and her Butterfree. Fish monsters or no fish monsters, seeing a huge butterfly that was strong enough to lift someone into the air was pretty much impossible for him to ignore.

Why yes, he did get distracted easily when bugs were involved, why do you ask? He wasn't quite oblivious enough to get himself smacked in the head by the monsters, but that was only because his counter spells made them bounce right off. Unfortunately he had been on the move long after he saw Yellow so he was starting to feel the strain, but dammit he wanted to catch up to that huge butterfly.]

[strawhathealer]

[ Fortunately for Sig, after a while Yellow does notice someone else besides the fish creatures nearby. And well, in her mind, anyone who isn't a fish creature is a potential ally now. Not to mention that he could be in trouble, and sleepy or not, she's not about to leave someone she can help behind. So Yellow asks her Pokémon to make their way towards him. ]

Are you all right there?

[neutralblue]

Yep. Just tired.

[He mops a few beads of sweat from his brow, but other than that he's pretty much calm despite the danger and the sight of Yellow's Pokemon coming toward him. The reason why he's calm doesn't have much to do with common sense, but hey.

The number of nearby monsters is still a problem, though. He takes a deep breath and... ]

Celestial!

[Blue and red sparks fly from his fingertip in something resembling an arc in response to that incantation, and while it doesn't take out all of the monsters, it still manages to thin out their numbers some.]

We should run away.

[Although he isn't sure where.]

[strawhathealer]

Yes, but I'm not sure where to...

[ At that, her Pokémon staying on the ground aim attacks towards those same monsters. ]

Did you notice a place they left alone?

[ Unfortunately, she hadn't figured out where those places are, being too preoccupied with running as much as possible from the fish creatures. Rather than feeling scared though, she's worried. Worried about her Pokémon's well-being and what happened to the fish to make them like this. ]
