The small Vulpix hopped around, over boulders and around little pools of hot rock. She avoided the lava, but then, what could she do? She didn't know what to do. She was content where she was.
Oddly enough, several bugs made their way around. Vixen was curious... So she decided to chase them. She hopped up at one floating tauntingly overhead, but it zipped out of the way. She kept hopping after it. The bug dived down onto the ground and the Vulpix leapt after it, pouncing. She cupped her tiny, red paws in front of her, hoping to have the bug, but she was unsuccessful. She let out a little snort of frustration and kept leaping after the bug. And the game of cat-and-mouse went on.
It wasn't until her fur was sticking up and her tails were frayed and slightly fringed that Vixen stopped chasing the bug. The creature soared greatfully up and out of sight. Vixen tottered around curiously, even though she was worn out. She hopped over little pools of hot, molten rock and scrambled over rocks too big for her to climb.
And here comes the saying "Curiosity Killed the Cat." Or, in this case, Vulpix. She was focusing on a rock when, out of her peripheral vision, there was a bubble, a red one. She looked to the side and what did she see? A pool of lava, bubbling and seething. She had never seen the likes of this before and she teetered up towards it cautiously. She stuck her nose out but pulled it back when yet another bubble swelled. She stepped closer, on the very edge of the small crater of lava. And she stumbled. Her tail caught the hot mess and she yelped, more surprised than in pain. She scrambled out of the little pool, her foot catching in the lava as well. She lay there then, on the ground, her tail and hind paw singed. She looked around, disgruntled and discouraged.

Neruka,stepped threw the rock, and went over to the small Vulpix. "Are you alright?" She asked smiling to her, she didn't want this stranger to be hurt.

She stood up quickly at the site of the stranger. Shaking her head to clear it, she spoke. "I'm fine," she announced bravely, pushing out her chest in an attempt at bravado. "Lava doesn't hurt me," she said with a grin.
The tiny little Vulpix wasn't hurt -- it was more surprise than hurt. The fact that she even fell in the lava was surprising. Her, Vixen, fall in lava? Yeah, right.
So the little Vulpix began to speak. "Vixen," she introduced herself. Her six little red tails swung back and forth, catching and tangling together, in the manner of a dog. Her tiny paws kneaded the ground. She was so energetic,

A lunatone came onto the scene. The moon pokemon floated over lava and stone alike. It didn't even look like it was moving. Instead the ground seemed to move while it stayed in place, but that became apparently absurd as you didn't move with it. The lunatone seemed to be minding it's buisness.
Fiery red eyes gazed out from the sides of the moon of rock. The lunatone was just passing through where no lunatone's had ever passed through before.

The lunatone continued on it's way, ignoring the vulpix. (Leaving)

Koribi poked his head and front paws over one of the large lava rocks to spy on the scene. This vulpix really knows how to have fun,” he thought with a wag of his tail. “Maybe this is the place to find some adventure, this volcano! Nice and hot, lots of caves, looks like a blast!” He bounced up to the top of the rocks and shot off with a leap, pushing off with his back paws.
Unfortunately, he didn’t exactly judge the distance well. As soon as he realized that he was about to roll right into the lava pool where the vulpix was standing, he quickly let his front paw clip a rock on the rough terrain, making him trip and roll to a stop. “…Ow…” he mumbled, standing up and shaking a few stray embers from his coat. When his head stopped spinning he noticed he had fallen right next to the Vulpix. With a happy bark for a greeting, he wagged his tail and said, “Wow, you look like you know how to have fun! I bet you go on all sorts of adventures!”

The small red Vulpix grinned a dog-like grin at the site of the Pokemon that had landed right next to her. She flopped down on her belly, rear in the air, and waggled her tail. "Yes," she replied. "I like this place the best, though." Her small red paws suddenly cupped in front of her and she looked down at the ground to see what she had caught.
Unfortunately, she didn't catch what she wanted. The bug zipped off into the hot air. She grunted in frustration. "The bugs don't like to be played with," she concluded to the new Pokemon.
(Whoa, sorry it took so long to reply. I've been mondo-busy.)

[Lol, can I join?]
A figure watched from a little ways off, her amber eyes watching them sadly. If only she still had her sister and father, she would be like them, with friends and family. Taking a deep breath, Faya leaped down, her pretty scarlet fur brimming around the embers. Padding down softly, she leaped nimbly from rock to rock, careful to avoid the lava yet briskly so that she would reach them before they left, if they did.
"Errr.... Hello there."
She greeted uncertainly, her tails wagging slightly. She could see that there was another vulpix like herself, a cyndaquil, and a growlithe. All fire types. Feeling slightly reassured, she nodded to them each, her bright smile showing as she grew comfortable to the company of other pokemon.

(wow ^^; for the longest time, my computer wouldn't let me on this site...sorry i haven't been around)
Koribi wagged his tail at the sight of a new friend. "Hi!" he barked energetically. "Wow, you're covered in sparky things, they're pretty!" he nodded towards a few stray embers that danced on her fur. His tongue lolled out of his mouth as he grinned excitedly at the three. Finally he had managed to find some friends. Though it seemed that the first Vulpix he had met was intent on catching a bug to play with. "I can getcha one of those," he sniffed proudly, stepping over to a few of the solid lava rocks. A bug had landed across a small stream of the magma...all he would have to do is jump across them to snatch the bug. "Look, I can do it!" he called with a wag of his tail, springing from rock to rock without slipping. Finally, at the last rock before the bug, he crouched down low on his belly, tail wagging in the air...and leaped.
"GOTCHA!" he shouted, throwing his paws up to slap the bug down. Unfortunately...he missed. The bug flew away, and instead of winning his little game he slipped and almost fell into the stream of magma. Luckily he managed to scrape his claws against the rock and catch himself. He turned his heads towards the others with a sheepish look. "...Oops..."

The little red fox watched with an amused expression, six red tails waving slightly. She blinked, amber eyes curious, as he leapt to catch the bug. She giggled when his attempt ended in vain, just like hers had. It was rather pitiful, though not comething to be ashamed of.
"I thought you said you could catch one," she sneered playfully, hopping up to cuff him around the ear with one tiny paw. "But I can't either," she remarked, feeling bad about her teasing jibe.
She turned to the new Pokemon; a Vulpix, just like her. "Hi," she said, blinking at the newcomer. "I'm Bella," she introduced with a smug flick of her ears.
((Eeh, had to change her name from Vixen because a mod has a Vulpix, now a Ninetails, named Vixen. Creativity ran dry, and the best I could come up with was Belle, which adapted into Bella.))

Koribi's silly grin faded as his ears flattened in embarrassment. He hadn't expected to mess up that badly...he must have looked like a real fool in front of these two. He slunk back across the rocks towards the pair and sat down on his haunches, his shoulders hunched and his head tilted a tad downwards in embarrassment.
"I'm Koribi," he said softly, glancing off to the side. He expected them both to be holding back laughs at that very moment.

[I'd like to join too plz. lol its all fire pokemon]
On another part of the volcano a young ponyta amused himself by hopping from rock to rock on a river of lava. Tiring of this game, he leaped nimbly leaped to the bank only to land on the tail of a charmeleon which was sheltering itself on the other side of a rock.
With a roar of rage the charmeleon leaped to its feet and glared at the embarrassed pokemon. Fire and smoke poured from its mouth as it prepared to punish its offender
"I'm sorry, friend," the fire horse said, good-naturedly. "Next time I'll be more careful about where I put my hooves.
He winced as the reptilian pokemon refused to back down. He only knew the move tackle and doubted that it would be enough to take down an evolved pokemon, however, it was against his nature to simply run away. The charmeleon inched closer as he frantically tried to figure out how to out of this jam.

[Lol. ^^ Fire pokemon party.]
Faya held back a laugh of amusement. They seemed about her age, though Bella must have been younger then her.
"My name is Faya. The pleasure is mine."
She replied evenly, her amber eyes shining beneath the golden glow of the magma. However, she heard a soft clammer a ways off and her ears pricked. Tensing, she flicked her six tails in unison.
"Did you hear that?"
She barked. Not waiting for an answer, she bounded nimbly down the lava covered slope, cautious not to fall into the treacherous streams. Skidding to a halt, she spotted two figures off to one side. It looked like they were fighting, but she sensed the feelings of anger from one and defensive harmlessness from the other. Creeping closer, she was alarmed to see that it was a charmeleon who didn't look all to pleased with a ponyta.
"What's going on?"
She spoke, bounding down and standing next to the ponyta, hoping it wouldn't come to a battle.

The ponyta was slightly relieved that a small vulpix had come to his aid, but knew that a charmeleon would still be a very tough opponent if it came to a fight.
"I guess I wasn't paying enough attention," he replied, embarrassed. "As I lept from a rock in that lava stream I landed on the charmeleon's tail, who was sleeping on the other side of the boulder. I apologized, but he seems to be in a very bad mood, as you can see."
He stepped forward, trying to reason with the enraged pokemon.
"I'm truly sorry," he said, hanging his head. "I didn't mean to make you angry or to hurt your tail. You can have some berries I found as a peace offering."
He stepped back next to the vulpix and tensed, ready for a fight, just in case the charmeleon wasn't willing to forgive.

Koribi's confidence burst from him again as he watched the surroundings from the above lava rock with the remaining Vulpix. "Cooool!" he said, his body tensing. "A fight! Attacks, dodges, so cool!" He leaped from the rocks to the bottom and scurried over to the Ponyta and Faya, crouching down onto his belly. "Come on then, if you're so angry then put 'em up!" he growled playfully, believing it was all some sort of game. The charmeleon...looked like he had other opinions on the situation. With a growl, he tensed and lowered himself, ready to strike against the little Growlithe...

Flicking her ears, her tails lashed.
"He didn't mean it! He apologized, and it was an accident that he stepped on your tail."
She growled one last time at the offensive pokemon. Tensing, she felt Koribi land beside them and she flicked her ears gratefully at him. Hopefully the charmeleon would feel intimidated with three on one. Her plan didn't work as the charmeleon opened its jaws, releasing a jet of fire, most likely flame thrower.

The ponyta charged toward the charmeleon in a full tackle and activated his ability flash fire, absorbing most of the flame thrower. He slammed into the charmeleon with full force throwing him to the ground.
"My name is Blaze by the way," he panted. Using his ability in combination with tackle took more out of him than he had figured.
Unfortunatly, the charmeleon didn't stay down long. He jumped to his feet more furious than ever and charged straight toward Blaze.

Nodding swiftly, Faya blinked in surprise. Blaze was quite strong, more so then her, definitely.
"I'm Faya."
She said quickly, dodging the blast and releasing a barrage of ember.
(Blurrrggllleee... Museless today. XP)

Koribi growled and sprinted off to the side. "Don't foget about me!" he shouted, springing off from the side of a rocky wall and launching himself at the charmeleon, clamping onto its tail and clinging hard. With a roar of pain the charmeleon began swinging its tail furiously in an attempt to throw Koribi off, but he kept his teeth in with a fierce growl of determination. "No...hurting...them!" he said in between his teeth, clasping his eyes shut in concentration.

After Blaze caught his breath he looked around for something to ended the fight. He spotted a pile of boulders piled precariously on to of a rocky wall behind the charmeleon. He smiled knowing just what to do.
"I have a plan!" he yelled excitedly. "Faya, keep distracting him with ember and you, Growlithe," not knowing what else to call him. "I'm going to hit him with with another tackle and as soon as a make contact I want you to plant your feet and swing him into the rocky wall behind him as hard as you can, doubling the impact. As soon you let go, jump away from the wall so you don't get hit."
"Ready?" he asked, digging his hooves in.

Faya blinked, unsure at first how this would work. Taking a brief break from ember, she cast a sharp glance at the rocky wall and then the plan struck her like a stone. Blinking, she nodded swiftly to him.
"Ready!"
With as much power as she had left, flames burst from her mouth in numerous numbers as she furiously barraged the charmeleon with ember.
This had better work. I can't keep up ember much longer.
She thought to herself, already panting from using up her energy. Now all they had to do was for Blaze to slam into the charmeleon and Koribi would throw it into the rock wall. She hoped that it would work and the timing would match. With a last burst of strength, she emptied her energy into ember, feeling the power leaving her body numb.

"'Urry up!" Koribi said in between his feet, planting his feet down as hard as he could. It was getting to be quite difficult, the way the charmeleon was carrying on. However, when he opened his eyes and saw Faya trying her hardest, and the ponyta ready to strike, his determination rose and his spirits lifted. With a confident glare towards the charmeleon, Koribi growled fiercely and brought the tail further down to the ground. Only a few more moments, and the Ponyta would hit...he could hold out...

As if spring loaded, Blaze launched himself at the charmeleon at full speed, which ,for a ponyta, is REALLY fast. He'd seen how hard Faya and the growlithe were working and felt strength growing inside of him that he never new he had.
As he felt himself connect with the charmeleon he yelled, "Now," and kept pushing forward with all his might, hoping that everything worked like it was supposed to.
As the charmeleon crashed into the rocky wall, Blaze, realized one important flaw in his plan. Like the charmeleon, he was heading toward the wall at a very fast rate and horse hooves aren't very well suited for quickly stopping or changing directions on rocky floors.
Luckily he crashed into the charmeleon, which somewhat cushioned the blow. Although dizzy and battered, he barely managed to get out of the way before the rocks fell and collapsed on the ground panting. "Did it work?"

Koribi felt his feet falter a tad as the full weight of the Charmeleon swung into the air. The only thing that kept him grounded was the thought of Faya, and the ponyta, both trying so hard to beat their opponent. It gave him more strength to hurl the much-larger pokemon up and into the rocky crevice. With an earth-shaking hit the Charmeleon slid down the wall to the ground, unconsious. Koribi stood on wobbly legs, panting heavily. He had never had to focus his energy like that before.
He wobbled over to where Faya lay, drained from the attack, and crouched down to make eye contact. "Hey, you okay...?" He sniffed the top of her head in concern. He lifted his head to also check on the ponyta. "And you too? You alright?" he asked, out of breath.

Panting, sides rising and falling rapidly, she felt satisfaction that they had suceeded thanks to team work. Looking up, she sighed and smiled back.
"Yeah, I'm fine. You guys were great. Everyone's ok, right?"
She barked, standing up. Wobbling at first, she felt herself teeter to the side, but caught her footing just in time and righted her stance. No one was hurt, and that was what mattered.

Blaze struggled to stand up and almost fell down, but managed get up. When he answered the other pokemon triumph was in his voice. "I'm basically fine. Just a little banged up. Boy, that was great! Did you see the look on his face when he hit the wall? It was awesome!"
He backed off a little bit from the others, limping slightly on one leg but not seeming to notice.
"Stand back," he warned. His body became engulfed in flames and the air temperature raised considerably.
After a few moments he stopped, seeming satisfied. "Had to let off a little of the heat I absorbed from that flame thrower," he said, laughing.

Watching with awe as it appeared that the ponyta, Blaze as he was called, was burning. Blinking, she flicked one of her six tails and smiled.
"We sure showed him."
She laughed. She surprised herself then. She hadn't laughed for so long. In fact, most of the time she was confined to herself and never said anything to anyone, and laughing was concidered an extreme. Blinking, she sat down, curious as to her strange reaction.

"Heck YEAH we did!" Koribi let out a celebratory howl and bounded around the two in excitement. The victory had given him a rush. Laughing, he raced in a circle...not really watching where he was going, and stumbling into Faya. He jumped up instantly after doing it, turning red in embarrassment.
"Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to...uh..." he stammered. "...Yeah...my bad..."

Blinking, she smiled and was suddenly taken by surprise as she was knocked backwards. Instantly, memories flooded her mind. She was running through the woods in search of berries. Her sister, Atalaya, was not far behind, sniffing at the roots of an Oran Berry bush. Turning around, she barked and raced after her sister who as already munching on the lush fruits. Then the sound of laughing as their gaurdian, arcanine, padded over, his firey pelt waving in the wind. She remember smiling as she and her sister showed him the berries.
Faya's eyes cleared and a smile spread across her muzzle as she re-entered the present. Blinking, she laughed again, this time whole-heartedly and tilted her head, smiling at Koribi.
"It's ok. No problem."
(Her facial expression could be concidered sort of like this: ^^)
Faya couldn't remember the last time she had play faught with her sister, or with any other pokemon overall. Then an idea formed in her mind and she looked at her companions eagerly.
"Alright. Since we're all fire pokemon and it seems that there are tons of hiding places around here, anyone up for a game of hide and go seek?"
She asked, hoping they would consent. She was beggining to enjoy the company of her two new friends. Koribi's fun-loving attitude, and Blaze's quick thinking.

Koribi gasped and barked in excitement. The last time he had been able to play a real live game with someone was...well, he couldn't even remember! And to play with these two would be fantastic. Blaze seemed like a great pokemon to pal around with, and Faya...well, Koribi wasn't quite sure why he was so enchanted by her. She just seemed so nice...
"Of course!" he yelped, wagging his tail. "Definitely!"
