Gaki was play-testing a new character for an up and coming LARP- princess Abie! Her costume had been redesigned a few too many times but Gaki was sure she had it perfect! The Princess was supposed to be a very snotty character, but also very playful! A bubbly girl who was given the world, and yet requires more and more! She was planning to do an improv down a few routes to see if she could stay in character and if the costume lasted- so.... this was gonna be a challenge for her.
Adjusting her golden crown she moved to release Leaf, Volta and Slithers, who promptly appeared infront of her all confused, and on completly different wave-lengths for what was going on. "You've all been summoned by me, Princess Abie!" An excited laugh left Gaki's lips and Leaf, in turn let out an excited squeak of his own, running right up to her- oh, he knew this schtick! She was playing a character! Volta just wobbled a little and coo'd, tilting his head at Gaki.
Slithers blinked at her quite a few times, just, visibly confused. Was... this her trainer, or did somebody replace her with a weird copy? She had the same Gaki smile.. uh... Gaki winked at Slithers, and Slithers hummed, yeppp, that was Gaki alright! "Today is an adventure for the noble! Your mission, if you chose to fight alongside me, is to take on the enemies of the raven kingdom!"
Volta and Leaf both let out excited cries, jumping by Gaki's feet, and Gaki grinned, turning to Slithers then, who just let out a low coo- they were all in! An excited noise then left Gaki as she fumbled about in her bag- okay... uhm- right! She pulled out a small royal cape and bent down to tie it around Volta's neck, who crackled excitedly with electricity. She then moved to put a small crown of Leaf's head, and turned to Slithers, who, after a few seconds of struggling, she managed to put a golden sash over her body. After a few seconds she shifted to gather her troops in her arms- the tiny Leaf and the small Volta, before climbing up onto Slithers, who was awaiting her directions.
"The army of Eibama is now ready to depart! Let's get readddy to rumble!"
And ready to rumble they were! With on Slithers' back, the dragon began a battle march. The two pokemon Gaki held wriggled around, but thankfully were much too excited to play out Gaki's new storyline to attempt to jump out of her grasp. A noise had Gaki leaning forward slightly, yelling out. "Knight Slithers! Our first foe has been spotted!" Despite the fact that Gaki hadn't seen anything. They were by the beach, and as far as she was aware there was nothing nearby-
Aha! A loud gasp left Gaki as a Sandyghast popped up from the sand and imediatly aimed a Sand Attack at the large dragon before it. "Slithers! An enemy from the opposition! We won't let them attack so easily!" A loud, jovial noise is what left the dragon she was perched upon, and Gaki quickly wracked her brain from Drampas moves- for the best strategy- cmoooon cmonnn... uhm- well she was on Drampas back so she had to be smart about this...
"Echoed voice!" Yeah! That'll do it! Drampa was quick to open her mouth and send an vibrato move in the Sandyghasts direction, who stumbled back a little- of course that didn't stop the lil' guy who threw themselves forward in an astonish, causing Slithers to flinch- ahhh no! "Slithers! We're of the Eibama army, we don't get scared!" But Slithers just let out a soft whine, and breaking character for a moment Gaki shifted to gently run an assuring hand over the Drampa's scales- it was okay! It was just acting!
The Sandyghast threw itself into an Absorb, sapping some life from Gaki's poor Drampa, but Gaki was relentless! 'Echoed voice!" She had a strategy! Again, a glow as send through the air at the Sandyghast, who hit with another Astonish, "Echoed voice, again!" And another echoed voice went! Again- again- again! A wicked back and forth, a rumble of the front lines, but only one remained victirous.
Slithers, who was huffing softly reigned supreme, the fallen knight, who had faught valiantly, rested by the Dragons torso, unconscious, and Gaki let out a cheer. "And onwards, we march! Towards the horizen, Knight Slithers!"
Onwards, Gaki and her knights marched! Slithers was actually kind of enjoying this, ignoring how dressed up she was route 1 was somewhat peaceful, people and pokemon alike were just going about their business, a few gave Gaki an uncertain glance, but none thought it worth approaching her... except for a curious woman who'd been in the middle of a calming picnic on the side of the road with her Roselia. Noticing Gaki, the woman raised a curious brow from where she sat, and after a moment called out, "Miss?! You're going straight along the path, if you're not careful your Drampa might run into somebody!'
Gaki didn't like being called out like this. The girl slowed down slightly, shifting her grip on the wiggling mons in her lap to gently tap Slithers so she slowed down slightly. "Duh...That's the whole point. I take out the opposing army, and have a clearer battle-path!" The lady seemed to blink just in... pure confusion at Gaki, who grinned in turn and took that as a chance to continue forward, "Onwards, steed!" leaving the breeder in the dust.
