Forward From the Past

[wynnyelle]

"Never mind why," said Charna. "What kind of legendary, and where did you see it?" She wasn't sure she could trust this creature, but she would take any lead she could get.

[Omega]

"Where did you see it?" asked Sombra.

[wynnyelle]

Charna had already decided what she would say to this little runt when he answered. She patiently waited for him.

[Jaemon]

"Rawr hmm...." Zodiac thought for a bit. "Over there." Zodiac pointed to the place he saw it. "Rawr hmm.... me forgets what it called, but it kinda like a dragon, but it in the shape of triangle, kinda. Rawr hmm... red wings, pointy ears, blue triangle on chest... Rawr hmm.... yeah, that about it. OH YEAH! It fly really fast, and it turn invisable." said Zodiac jumping up and down,

OOC: Zodiac is talking about Latias...

[Omega]

Zodiac's dialect was driving Sombra mad. He turned to Charna, "That doesn't sound anything like a celebi. Shall we dispose of him?"

[Jaemon]

"Celebi? What that?" asked Zodiac.

[wynnyelle]

"It sounds legendary to me, whatever it is," said Charna. She looked back at Zodiac, "take us right to where you saw it. We'll see if we have a good reason or not to keep you alive. You're going to lead us to where the legendary is now."

[Omega]

Sombra kept an eye on Zodiac, making sure he wouldn't try to run.

[wynnyelle]

Charna saw what Sombra was doing. "If you even think of running, Bidle, I have a thunderwave right where I can use it."

[Jaemon]

Zodiac blinked, then ran to wear he saw it, his short stubby legs moving quickly. "Hurry up!" Zodiac ran to the spot he saw the legendary pokemon. "Here here!!!"

[Omega]

Sombra sauntered behind. He looked in all directions, hoping to see the legendary, "Where did it go?"

[wynnyelle]

Charna followed him to the spot. The spotted ewe looked around, brightening her lights to cast them into shadowed areas. Nothing. "I don't see it anywhere. Last time you saw it, where did it go?"

[Jaemon]

Zodiac shrugged. "I tell you that it was fast and turn invisable." Zodiac sat down, then his stomach growled. He rubbed his stomach, trying make it stop growling.

[Omega]

"He's useless," said Sombra, "What do you suppose we should do with him?"

[Jaemon]

Zodiac frowned at Sombra. "You no like me. Why?" asked Zodiac, his stomach still growling.

[Omega]

"Oh, I don't know," sarcastically replied Sombra, "I tend to like most creatures who pounce me."

[wynnyelle]

"You did attack us--twice--when you first saw us," said Charna, shaking her head. "What you thought you could get out of attacking three pokemon, some stronger than you, is beyond me."

[Omega]

"Charna," said Sombra, "It's no use trying to extract more information from him. He's dry. Let's go look for a legend on our own."

[Jaemon]

Zodiac blinked. His stomach stopped growling, finally. Zodiac looked at the ground, then started to make a mini hole in the snow to sleep in.

[wynnyelle]

Charna looked at Zodiac with a mixture of disappointment, disdain and boredom. "Yeah. You're right. Come on. We'er pretty much all on a mission to find legends now, all three of us."

Her five children awaited help. Charna would not stand around and waste time trying to extract answers from a bumbling pokemon who didn't know anything.

[Jaemon]

Zodiac looked at Charna. Zodiac then narrowed his eyes, then pounced a couple of feet away and started digging like crazy. He grabbed a purple object in his mouth, and started to shake. Zodiac just killed a small Rattata. Zodiac walked back on over, and offered the Rattata to them.

[wynnyelle]

Charna wrinkled her nose and her lights buzzed. "No thanks, I'm a vegetarian." She could see what he was trying to do, but why? Why did he want to make it up to them? He didn't know them. She nodded her head sideways towards Sombra. "He might eat it, though."

[Omega]

"If you think this grubby corpse is going to impress us, you're sadly mistaken," replied Sombra.

[Jaemon]

Zodiac blinked, then shrugged. "All for me, then." Zodiac said, picking up the dead Rattata and eating it whole. He sat back down in his hole.

[wynnyelle]

Charna looked at Zodiac then back to Sombra. "He was visited by a legend, too. Who's to say it won't happen again? If he's with us when it happens..."

[Omega]

"Are you suggesting we travel with him?" asked Sombra.

[Jaemon]

Zodiac listened to the two pokemon chat.

[wynnyelle]

"Yes," said Charna, "only if you're open to the idea, of course." Her deeply seated teachings to be obedient threatened to rise back up and take her over, but for that Sombra was a lot smaller than she was. Her owners had always been large, powerful ampharos rams.

[Omega]

"Whose to say he actually saw this creature?" replied Sombra, "Even if he did, it was likely a coincidence."

[Jaemon]

Zodiac blinked, as he did so often, looking at both the pokemon.
