Ray chuckled tiredly at Carrie's comment. "It has been a rather stressful day, hasn't it?"
Ray looked at Charles in bewilderment. "Wait, what does that have to do with anything?"
Carrie adjusted her glasses with a tired smile. "Stressful doesn't even begin to cover it. But... We're all still here, you know?" She talked slowly at first, but gained confidence as she continued.
"And even though... even though Elizabeth didn't make it, we can still do what she wanted. Hell, we've even got a telepath. How can they possibly stand up against that?" She still looked shaken, but she seemed... stronger, now.
She stared at Charles. "...What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Why are you telling us this?"Ray asked. "Were you not satisfied tormenting only Greg with it?"
He then looked up at Jackie climbing the rope. She has a rather attractive- oh blast, Greg. Not a word to her!
"Erm, Jackie have you reached the top yet?"
". . . Somehow I doubt that that's the best sort of thing to be thinking about right now, Charles." Yeesh. That's horrible. Gotta take my mind off of that. Jackie had a better idea than to think out loud, this time, and so she started breathing deeply. Which made sense, since she was also climbing a rope.
Jackie popped her head above, and stared right into the face of a growling Poochyena.
The growling attracted the attention of the two men who had been arguing in there.
"Well, well, well," one of them said. "What do we have here?"
"SHIT!" Jackie instinctively punched at the Poochyena's face.
"Jackie! Are you alright?!" Ray said. He instinctively began climbing up the rope.
The Poochyena yelped, then skittered back.
The men swore, then drew out more Pokeballs. The tall, fat one on the left only drew out one, while the shorter one on the right drew out two.
"You want to mess with Team Rocket?!" they yelled.
Jackie noticed that they were somewhat nervous. Their hands were sweaty, and they were trying to lean aggressively forward without actually leaning forward, as if preparing to run away as well. She noticed six spots on their belts, presumably where Pokeballs usually sat, but four spaces on each were empty.
"I don't recognize this one, Mark," the fat one muttered.
"Shit, they've got reinforcements?" the short one moaned. "That's not fair."
"There are Rockets!" Oh shit that thing nearly bit my face off. Calm down, calm down.
She finished climbing, now that there was room. "Mercer, use Hypnosis on the short one!" And Brandon will just do whatever.
"I'm coming!" Ray cried. "Phillip and I will help in a moment." Blast I am so out of shape. If only I could climb faster!
Greg continues climbing for five days.
The Poochyena skitters in, low and fast. It leaps forward, then Bites Jackie, dealing 19 damage.
Dynamo turns on the Poochyena, striking it hard and fast with a Thundershock. The damage is enough to faint the Poochyena straight up.
The other three Pokemon charge forwards, intent on saving the Poochyena from death.
Jackie reeled from her wound. When her pokemon followed, she moved behind Brandon to recover. "Mercer, use Hypnosis on the one with the mushroom on its back!"
Ray finally scrambled up, wheezing and coughing. Need to help her! "Phillip!" he cried, letting him out. "Use Ember on the Parasect!"
Phillip emerged in a flash of red light, already running towards the Pokemon who may or may not be a Parasect that nobody knows because they have not scanned it. He breathed in deeply, then unleashed a torrent of Embers. The Parasect Pokemon reared back, surprisingly injured.
Mercer floated over Jackie and the fainted Poochyena, singing softly. The Pokemon grew drowsy and fell asleep right there.
The Sheep-looking Pokemon rushed at Phillip. Thunder shot from its' horn-ear-things, striking him full-on and dealing 12 damage.
Brandon took advantage of the distraction to run at the Zigzagoon. He leaped forwards, his hand chopping down on the Pokemon's back with a loud crack. The Zigzagoon reared back, yowling in pain.
Dynamo followed up, moving closer to the Zigzagoon and shooting a bolt of thunder at it. The bolt struck it, causing the Zigzagoon to faint.
"There's... a parasect... a mareep... and a bidoof I think." Ray said between wheezes. "Do... hurry!"
"Keep it up, Phillip. We have it on the ropes!" Ray had his pokedex trained on the creature.
"Mercer, use Spite on the yellow sheep!" Jackie was too out of it to connect the name "Mareep" to the Mareep.
He then mumbled to himself as he climbed. "What the hell is a Mareep anyways? Sounds like some sort of lizard Pokemon"
Phillip breathes fire on the Mushroom Pokemon again. It flinches in its' sleep.
Mercer sings softly again. The sheep trembles, losing its' ability to use Thundershock so often.
The Pokemon turned on Mercer. It bounded over, attempting to Tackle him. It had no effect :V
Littorio rushed the Mushroom Pokemon and Tackled it. He did no appreciable damage.
Brandon ran over to the Mareep, slamming his hand down on its' neck. The attack hit a critical spot, probably its' windpipe, and caused it to pass out in one shot.
With only one target left, Dynamo turned to the Mushrrom Pokemon and let out another Thundershock that, once again, did very little damage.
