Colt suddenly heard a loud crashing sound outside of his apartment. "You stay here, Lucifer." Lucifer let out a gleeful bark as he curled up on the bed. Colt opened his door and looked outside. He noticed that there was a bag of food outside of a door unattended. "That's odd." Colt walked over to check it out, and then noticed the room number was Ariettas. "This could be trouble." he thought. He used the power of Giratina to sense if the door was locked. It was. He could have opened it freely using Giratinas power, but He didn't like the hotel staff very much. Colt backed away from the door and tossed out a pokeball. "Bastiodon break down the door!." Out came a Bastiodon, charging into the door full force and smashing it to pieces.

After laying in his hospital bed for a few minutes, Rayce let out his Swampert. As the pokemon escaped its ball, he stood next to his owner's bed, staring sadly down at him. As best he could, Rayce spoke "It's okay Fonshi, I'm gonna be better soon." And he was. But not forever. Once he said that, Rayce found a strong surge of anger. Not hate like what he had felt from the cloaked man, anger. An amount that he couldn't ignore. So, as best he could, Rayce sat up, and had Fonshi put him on his back. Immediately after, the pokemon jumped through the window of his hospital room and started running toward the sensation. "It's in the hotel." He whimpered. Fonshi ran up the stairs to the third floor and down the hall to room 327. When he got there, he could feel the rage inside along with the hatred from the cloaked one. "Here." Rayce whispered to his pokemon. "Okay, what I want you to do is immediately throw me into it to the closest thing you see." The pokemon was very confused at this suggestion but did as he was told. As soon as he was ready, Fonshi threw Rayce toward the closest thing he saw in the room, that being a Hydreigon. Rayce hit the pokemon and threw it against the wall with his momentum. He screamed in pain but he knew he was doing something right. As best he could, Rayce started to punch all three heads of the (compared to him) short pokemon and begun to knock it out one head at a time. The adrenaline gave him a good strength boost, so when he was done, Rayce stood up to confront the man who had evidently and to his surprise, kidnapped his new friend.

There was a lot that happened in the last few seconds, it only took moments for me to gather myself when I turned m attention to the now destroyed door, "More for the party alr.." I began before I noticed who came flying through the door and tackling my Hydreigon. How he knocked it out is still beyond me consider how strong it was, but Toxicroak was on it before I could even respond. The frog launched into the air and used a combination of brick break and posion jab on the intruder and cripple the already crippled man. Zoe noticed the Bastiodon at the door and responded quickly firing a focus blast at it which we both knew did 4X times the damage. With one of my pokemon out because of suspicous reason and the other two occupied I tossed out Blitz to guard the girl while I went for my dagger which was strapped to my leg. "So the party really gets started? Great lets dance!" I said to mostly myself as Blitx grouwled as the fire with a mouth full of toxic flames, the flames that could burn a human for all eternity. If someone was to approach me or touch me however, I'd be ready to stab them in the gut. Then it registered, I was fighting shirtless... great... caught with my shirt off how nice.

Arietta stares at the mess for one moment, and decides at that moment that after all of this was over, she was going to just go home and sleep. Yeah, because apparently everyone on this continent was crazy. She spits out the sock, and stands up. Her mouth was dry, and she was tired and hungry. If this continued, she was going to use her last-resort, and take form of her god himself. "Hey, shirtless wonder, please, for the love of the gods, just get your pokemon and get out." She says to him, eyes blazing with anger. She slams the chair against the wall, and the back breaks so she can move again. She wasn't going to attack him, she wasn't stupid enough to attack him, his houndoom was giving her the stink eye, and the kid was freaking ripped. Then her phone started ringing. "OH MY GODS MOM NOT NOW." she screams at no on in particular, and leaves the phone in her pocket, before going back to glaring.

Colt watched as his Bastiodon took a full force focus blast from the boys Zoroark. Not surprisingly to him, his bastiodon endured the hit, but wasn't in good shape. "So we're getting serious now, huh? well, let's go!" Cole withdrew his Bastiodon and sent out his gallade, garachomp, and Gengar. The 3 immediately jumped into action. Gallade launched a double succession of psycho cuts at the Toxicroak as it recovered from attacking, sending it crashing into a nearby wall. gengar launched a powerful electric shock at the houndoom, hoping to take it out. Then garachomp, the strongest of the trio, rushed down zoroark with a powerful dragon claw, smashing it into the bed. One thing Colt loved about his team that they were an efficient killing machine. Colt looked at the man with a knife in his hands. He thought about attacking him, hoping his fighting skills would win out, but he didn't want to risk it.

When the girl moved Houndoom moved he sent a fiery of flames at her leg using flamethrower, the burn scorching her bare legs, bad day to be wearing shorts. This was no ordinary burn either, it was a Houndoom's burn meaning it would not stop hurting. My Houndoom then barked telling her not to move again sending the message through eye contact. "I told you to answer. You didn't fast enough so he made the choice for you." I told her without turning around. but as he was done he was hit by an electric shock, but endured it well before jumping back and using faint attack on the Ghost pokemon, smashing into it and flinging it across the room. Zoroark on the other hand was a master of its illusions and used them to trick the Garchomp into believing it had hit her, instead she had dodged and jumped to a clear spot of the room cloaked in a dark red energy cloaking her body. When that happened I saw It was time to go, I withdrew my pokemon as Zoe raised her arms, I ran toward the window quickly grabbing my pack and shirt before lunging out and grabbing the pipe lining the side of the building I used to climb it earlier. I slide down quickly as Zoe released the Night Daze. The blast capturing the room the neighboring rooms and walls, the blast recking the room badly along with whatever remained in it. She stood grunting from the steaming coming off her as she followed me out the window and we descended to the streets below.

The Toxicroak who attacked Rayce reopened his earlier wound that was afflicted onto him and just sat on the wall trying to keep conscious. His Swampert ran through the doorway and smacked Toxicroak onto the wall to save his trainer.

Arietta's eyes widen, and flash blue again. She screams, and her powers reach out desperately. Everyone in the room feels the cold presence hit them like a fist in the gut, and it reaches downstairs. She takes the lives of several people, trying to stop the burn. Eventually, she falls to the ground, tears pouring from her eyes. The burns wouldn't vanish. "No. No no no!" She mumbles, "Oh gods, I'm so sorry." She killed 8 people, two couples on a vacation and some hotel staff. Arietta looks up at the people in her room, and lets out a whimper, "I'm so sorry." The pain was needling her still, she needed medical attention. Arietta looks around the room, and her eyes land on Moraya, who was still knocked out. She crawls over slowly and picks her up, cradling the pokemon close.

I landed on the concrete of the alleyway and looked around to make sure no one saw us as Zoe descended the pipeline, I hated running, I honestly did, but I didn't have much of a choice at the moment. In the long run it was probably best since I just let someone with an eternal burn and severally wounded that guy from earlier even more than he already was, and who ever that other guy was. On top of that, Night daze probably hurt all of them even more plus anyone near that room which would probably be falling apart and falling into the room below it. Darkrai would be proud, I thought to myself as Zoe joined me and I slipped on my shirt, my pack right after and ran down the alleyway with Zoe running on all fours beside me. I had forgot about my knife in my hands as I ran, but luckily I always held it with a reverse grip when I wasn't in a fight.

Colt felt a strong gust of... he didn't know what, burst through the room. He looks around and notices Arietta, with her eyes wide and tinted blue. 'So she was the source of that.' Colt slowly stood up, holding his damaged torso. "Nothing I haven't felt before." Colt grimaced, patting his bruise. He looked around the room, seeing the destruction caused by the fight that had transpired. His pokemon were mostly fine, just a little dinged up, except for Gengar. "come on back, guys. you did well." Colt returned his team to their spherical homes and returned them to the holster underneath his coat. "Now THAT was a fight." Colt said aloud, stretching his arms. He thought that kid was strong, and he wasn't wrong. It wasn't a conventional fight, but fun nonetheless. He pulled his attention away from his own amusement to Arietta. She was still lying on the floor, cradling her fallen Sylveon and crying. There was no doubt about it; Arietta was the disciple of a god. probably Yveletal from the looks of it. "Well this is a problem." Colt never liked the idea of people being granted the powers of gods. Humans were meant to gain strength through their own hard work and adversity. The only reason he chose a god of his own was to defend himself against other disciples. "We'll deal with this later." Colt bent down and picked her and her pokemon up in a cradle, wincing as his own wound caused pain. He needed to get her to the hospital. That Houndoom had burned her pretty bad, and even worse since it was a Houndoom. Lucifer came running down the hall and into the room. " A little late, buddy." Colt looked down at the other man. He had a swampert that cared for him. Colt didn't have time to help them both. Besides, Arietta still had information he needed. "Better get out before the staff show up." Colt jogged towards the stairs of the hotel to escape.

Arietta chokes back a sob, slowly recovering from the shock of killing eight people. Her leg still throbbed, and she was still very concerned for Moraya, but she had to get herself together. "Don't worry, they'll be occupied with the death of four staff members and four occupants." She mumbles, feeling very, very tired. Maybe she was going into shock? No, she didn't feel numb. There's a short pause, "I have a lot to explain, don't I?" Arietta lets out a long sigh, sniffling slightly.

"You'll have plenty of time to explain yourself after we get you admitted to the hospital." Colt reached the bottom of the stairs, still holding Arietta cradled in his arms. He went around the back of the store, trying to avoid unnecessary attention. Colt went through the employee exit and jogged into the hospital. He enters through the front door, feeling the eyes of the staff drawn to him. "This girl needs medical attention." Colt handed Arietta over to the nearest able staff member. "Her leg was burned with Houndoom fire, so it would be best if that was dealt with immediately." The man nodded, turning around to bring her to a room. "I guess We'll be waiting again, Lucifer." Lucifer looked up at Colt and lied down in the corner of the lobby.

It was about the time Arietta was handed to the staff that she decided that she was going to try her best to never be a damsel in distress again, because that was terrible. She slowly drifted off to sleep after the staff did vitals on her, cradling Moraya in her arms- who was also receiving medical treatment. When she woke up, she was in a hospital bed, an IV in her arm and a numb leg. "At least they had the supplies on hand to treat the burn." She mumbles. Arietta uses the stored energy of the lives she had taken earlier to increase the effectiveness of the salve they applied to her leg under the bandages. It's about that time she notices Moraya laying on her legs, blinking at her. Arietta sits up carefully, and hugs the pokemon. "Sorry you had to go through that," Arietta coos into the pokemon's fur, and pulls her away, smiling, "Glad to see you're okay." Moraya squeaks happily, and 'hugs' her with the ribbons on her body. "You think the stuff at the hotel is okay?" She asks, and the pokemon rolls its eyes and laughs.

Colt was lost in thought sitting in the hospital lobby, waiting for news of Arietta.
Arietta was a disciple. This he knew. He had always thought that he would try to eliminate any disciple he met. It's not like he didn't have the ability to do so. He could remove any thing he wanted with the dark anti matter provided by Giratina, but now that he actually met one... Colt ran his hand through his hair in frustration. It isn't like Arietta was a bad person, at least from what he could tell. Still, she had the potential to cause mass chaos. He thought for a few seconds. She asked him for help and he accepted it. It was his duty to provide help. It would be a slap in the face of his honor if he didn't see it through. "Excuse me sir." Colt looked up at the woman that had addressed him. "You can see the girl now." He nodded his head."Come on, Lucifer. let's get this over with." Lucifer stood up and followed him to the hospital door. Colt hesitated for a second before knocking on the door. He was still going through things in his head, so he didn't say anything as he walked into the room.

Arietta looked over at Colt and smiled, "Hey." She was actually feeling much better, but that was probably the heavy amount of pain killers in her system, "Man I've caused a lot of trouble for you. Sorry about that." Her sylveon sits back and looks at the two, scanning them over before just laying down next to Arietta. Arietta smiles softly at the pokemon, and sighed. "So, I suppose I should explain some things." Arietta looks up, "I'm a Disciple of Yveltal. My job is to ensure that people can't defy nature and life past their due time." She lays back on the now propped up bed, "I can sap the life-force out of someone, transfer my soul into another being, and transform into a smaller form of my god." A small laugh escapes her, "That's all there really is to it." She pets Moraya and looks over at the two, a small smile. She hopes Colt doesn't think her a monster, she wasn't.

Colt thought for a second. Arietta definitely didn't seem bad, but power corrupts. He had no way of telling when she would snap. However, he trusted his judgement to tell when that time came. "It's fine." Colt replied. "As long as you don't try to take my body I'm fine." He gave off a feigned laugh."Lucifer, take my jacket down to the pokecenter, get everyone healed up." Colt took off his jacket and handed it to Lucifer, who took it and darted down the hall. "So, what do you know about that guy from before?" He suddenly got serious.

Arietta frowns slightly, and gestures for Moraya to get her belt. Moraya huffs, and grabs the belt. Arietta returns her to the pokeball, knowing she'll get more rest in there. "He's definitely a disciple- but I'm not sure of what. I haven't been a disciple that long." Her grip tightens on the belt, "He knocks out people, and I think... I think he causes them to have terrible night-terrors." Arietta purses her lips, "I remember stories from when I was a kid about a nightmare pokemon. Darksei? Darkei? I can't remember." Her eyes narrow and look over at Colt from the belt, "He enjoys people's suffering, it looks like. There's also a chance he's missing a couple of things upstairs."

Colt couldn't help but show his surprise. "Darkrai!?" Colt knew that something was up with the boy, but he didn't realize he was disciple of Darkrai. Darkrai disciples were dangerous when they had their full potential. Colt knew that If needed, he would not hold back and try to kill this boy if needed. "We need to be careful." Colt was going to mention the dangers of Darkrai disciples, but he caught himself. Arietta didn't know he was a disciple himself. "Anyone with that kind of power and that mindset can be a real threat." Colt didn't realize it, but he was speaking very loudly, sudenly standing up straight. He calmed down before speaking. "Well, we should head out when you are ready to move again. you are training with me, after all."

I stood outside the hospital now, I knew they would be in here, after the damage I dealt them and that burn this is where they would be. I hated leaving things unfinished as much as I hated being called a monster, and now I would show them just who they were dealing with. I had met few other Disciples of Darkrai, but among the few I had met, I was renowned as the most skilled with our powers. Sending even those who did not slumber into nightmares they could never unsee, nightmares that left them crippled and terminally insane, nightmares that the mighty Darkrai himself would be proud to witness. A sinister grin pressed against my face as my eyes flashed a bright teal to match my God's and my body was consumed by my shadow, I sank into the ground and dashed quickly into the Hospital, with it still daylight the shadow was faint and once inside it had become one with the shadow cast by the roof of the hospital. My shroud still hanging where I left it, my hand rose from the shadows and grasped it, bringing it into my world of shadows, I cloaked myself once again and drew my hood over my face. I rose from the shadows in a mass of shrouded black wit my eyes glowing brightly and that's when I unleashed it, my power took hold and those in the room fell to their knees screaming and wailing in agony from their nightmares. I cackled wickedly as I continued behind the desk to look at the recent check-ins, by adding the timing of the incident an then how long it would take to bring them here I had easily found out when they got here and what room they were in.
I walked down the hall at a pace that showed I was in no hurry, with every step more and more fell victim to my nightmares, eahc feeling their minds turn against them, their worst nightmares times ten, but I could do worse. I could do much worse to them, but that would cause them to mentally fall apart and mentally cripple them which I was not going to do for reason I would explain later. I continued down the hall and as I stood before the room the girl, who was the only one to be checked in, was occupying and kicked it open. The night mares flooding the room, the man from earlier felt his mind betray him in only an instant. The girl lying in bed being forced to witness the world around her decay, a nightmare quickly becoming her reality, (that's how it feels, this is the dream: Her powers go haywire, her pokemon being released from their pokeballs in a malfunction as she is forced to watch as her pokemon are drained of life, the world arond her being sucked of life, the walls peeling, people dying. All of it her fault as she kills the very man she had just befriended and asked for help, his aging hastening before her eyes as she extended her own life and would have to live with the pain. Another nightmare plays in her head where here pokemon, family and friends are burning at the stake while has is forced to watch, she herself burning, but can not die with her increased lifespan. The nightmares go on as I laugh sinisterly. I fully step into the room with my dagger drawn and ready in case by some act of divine grace they escaped, "Yes, scream. Wail in despair as you feel my power!" I howled as I cackled, "I am Silas Grey, Disciple of Darkrai! Born to raise hell on earth and taboo to show mercy! I will plunge this world into an ETERNAL NIGHTMARE PLANE! This is what Darkai wishes and I will deliver!" I cooed as a single nightmare in the girl's mind played slowly, it said, "Join me and your will be strong. You will grasp your power you you were meant to and you will no longer be the damsel in distress. I know my offer may sound insane considering my actions, but know my actions never directly targeted you. Actually even in the room my Houndoom acted on its own, I did not order it. Listen to my words and hear my plea, I wish to work with you and have you as an ally. Know no harm will come to you or your pokemon if you side with me, but if not..." the nightmare's voice trailed off as the assault on her mind continued.
My form sank into my shadow as I let the nightmares continue as I left, they would embed themselves into their brains and forever torment them when they came close to me. Thus trapping them in a nightmare cycle when I wished to begin where I left off.

Arietta mind grasps desperately at the facts provided to her. Yes, this wasn't reality, this was only a nightmare. Yes, some asshat doesn't know how to control his pokemon. Yes, he was a follower of Darkrai, and his agenda had nothing to do with hers. Yes, her pokemon were still alive, and so was Colt. "YOU!" She screeches, "This is not how I would try to convince someone to join them!" This is not what her master wanted. Yveltal would not condone using his powers like this. She didn't want suffering, not if it looked like this. She felt the claws of insanity trying to sink into her head, and she snarled, "I'll kill you!" She screamed, and ignored the pain in her leg as she got up. The images of the dead and damned moaned around her, reality looked like it was melting. She knew they were fake, but the images haunted her. She reaches inside herself and grabs the core of her power yanking on it with all of her might. Her limbs transform, she grows, and morphs. She becomes Yveltal- just a little smaller though. "Silas Grey, leave or I won't hesitate to rip your miserable life from your body!" She screams in a mutated voice. This was the insanity in her. She'd never kill anyone who wasn't in her agenda, not on purpose. She screamed at herself from the confines of her mind, and the insanity just told her not to worry, all a bluff. She reached out with the Icy energy tendrils, but to no avail: he had departed. "Dammit!" She screams. Where was he? Arietta searches into the depths of her dream, no longer affected by the tormenting sights. She would find him.. Somehow. -- In the physical world, Arietta was fulled transformed. Her powers were active, and she was searching for his presence- but not finding it. She curled up on herself, looking like a cocoon of sorts. The Icy tendrils of energy retracted as she searched in her dream world.

I loved my powers a great deal, being able to fade into my own shadow and dart away made it easy to cause pain and suffering and leave no trace of my escape. Though sending people into a temoral nightmare realm did have its back fires like if they had a strong will they could realize it was a nightmare and "swim" out of it, but even then as long as I made enough layers of the nightmares it would take a while to escape. I focused on leaving now that my job was done and I had sent the message I needed to, in truth I said what I needed them to know and make things interesting for me. The girl would make a great ally so I needed to work more on that front since she'd be an annoying enemy especially with her powers.

Colt looked around in the void of his mind. All he could see was destruction and chaos around him. Houses were on fire, people devoid of life piled on the ground. "This is just a creation of my mind." Colt said. "None of this is real." Colt always thought he had a good grasp of his own mind and what reality is. however, in this situation, that also scared him. He knew dreams were not real, but thoughts stored in the minds subconscious escaping into image form.
Colt saw movement ahead through the thick smoke and darkness that clouded this town. Instinctively, Colt ran towards the sign of life, hoping to find out what has caused this chaos. As Colt approached the figures, he was able to make out what horror he was seeing. He saw the Arietta being held up in air, hand grasped around her throat, with her assailants back turned towards him. Colt tried to stop it, but he found himself unable to, blocked by an invisible wall of sorts. He watched in horror, unable to do anything, as Arietta was killed in front of him. It wasn't the fact that she was killed that scared him, it was how. Arietta was... engulfed in a dark antimatter, dissolved until nothing remained. He knew who this person was, and it horrified him to no end. The figure turned around, revealing the face of Colt Hardwin.
"Why!" Colt screamed. "Why do this!? Why cause all this destruction!?" The Colt in front of him gave him a smirk. "It was necessary" He replied. " Humans are driving themselves into the ground. It is only a matter of time before they imploded in on themselves. I'm just giving things a reset." Colt recoiled in shock and disgust. "How can you use your powers!? Giratina forbids turning away legitimate pleas for help!" the figure befor him replied, retaining that haunting smirk. "Those aren't legitimate. people just want to further themselves and themselves only. Their cries for help are just ways they manipulate you." Colt dropped down on his knees, putting his hands over his ears and head on the ground. "No! stop it!" He pleaded for it to stop. He knew this wasn't real, but he also knew that it wasn't entirely fake. Dreams are still thoughts that a person has, they are just locked away in your mind. Everything Colt was seeing was something he thought. He was forced to watch this recitement of his inner thoughts as he was restrained in his mind.
'Wait, restrained?" Colt thought for a second. 'So, I am a prisoner in my mind, trapped and being held here against my will?' Colts mind was working. He may have found a way out of this nightmare. -- Lucifer ran back from the pokemon center with Colts jacket and his fully healed pokemon. When he returned to the room, He saw his trainer on the ground, hands over head, looking in pain. Lucifer ran over towards Colt, barking at him, trying to get him up, to no avail. Lucifer, out of desperation, bit onto his trainers arm and sent a strong electric shock through his body. "Aghhhhh!!" Colt screamed. He jumped to an upward position, freed from his nightmare. "Thanks, buddy."Colt said, patting Lucifer on the head. Colt looked over to see Arietta, curled up in a ball. Colt ran over to Arietta, shaking her. "Arietta! wake up! you can escape! Wake up!"

Arietta whipped around in her nightmare. That voice! She looked behind her, at the corpse of Colt. He was still alive, no matter how what this evil nightmare showed. She hadn't lost control of her powers in the real world.. The relief that flooded her was profound. "Thank the gods." she whispered, and pushed at the insanity with her mind. She could break out of here, Colt did. She grasped onto the sound of the man's voice with her mind, using it like a rope and a repellent. This insanity clawing at her brain like razors was also just an illusion, and so she had to over power it before it became her. "You... Will not.. Make me a prisoner in my own mind!" She screamed, and the world went white as all of the melting reality, death, and decay was erased from within her mind. The slimy fingers of insanity screamed in her head before dissolving with the rest of her dream. -- Arietta's neon blue eyes snapped open, but were greeted by the sight of pulsing red. Panic flooded her, was she in another nightmare? What was going on. She tried to move. "Oh." That's what it was... She was looking at her own body. She chuckled in a mutated voice at her own stupidity. The fingers on the top of the cocoon twitch, before releasing their grip. She unfolded slowly, getting used to moving the unfamiliar limbs. When she finally unfolds all of the way, she sees Colt, looking frantic and concerned. He was the one who woke her, and she felt very, very grateful. "Thank you, Colt." the mutated voice says to him, a smile on it. She couldn't really smile with the mouth she had right now, which was kind of frustrating. Arietta decided that maybe it wasn't a good idea to be in the form of Yveltal, she didn't know the limbs well enough, and she didn't have complete control of her powers just yet. She didn't want to loose control of her powers, like in that terrible dream. Infact, on some level deep within her, she never wanted to use them again. That was horrifying. She lets go of the core of her power, and the long limbs slowly recede, along with the rest of the body. It took a minute, but the red pulsing body of Yveltal vanished into her own limbs. Arietta cast a look down at herself- good, the energy didn't rip her clothes off, it just coated her. After doing a once over, and checking if she had all of her limbs and toes, she looks up at Colt. "Are you alright?" She casts a glance over him- he looked fine, but it was never to much to check- "How did you escape?"

Colt let loose a genuine sigh of relief. "Thank the gods your alright." Colt relaxed his muscles and let a smile creep through. "lucifer here helped me out." Colt gestured toward Lucifer, who let out an enthusiastic bark. "He gave me a shock strong enough to break me free." Colt raised his left arm, which was dripping with blood. "I guess he bit a little too hard, though." Colt laughed. What Colt said was only half the truth. Lucifer was the one that got him out of that horrible nightmare, but there was more to it than that. In the world inside his head, Colt realized that he had the power to break out of the restraints on his mind. Disciples of Giratina can render anything used to restrain someone useless. Once he realized he was being restrained within his mind, he used that power to weaken the shackles of his mind. Because of his mental state at the time, he was unable to use his full power, only weakening it. He wasn't going to tell Arietta this. Not because he felt she was a threat, but because he preferred to keep it secret. No reason to say anything. "How are you doing?" He supected that Arietta was Silas' target. He had no reason to go after Colt, yet all the reason for Arietta. "How's your mind doing?"

Arietta paled a bit at the sight of the blood, and began to unhook her pokeballs from her belt. She held the belt out to him, "Use this to help restrict the bloodflow." But instead of waiting she took the initiative to actually do it herself, making the belt tight- but no uncomfortably so- around his arm. Arietta was still a bit nauseous from the nightmare, "And.. I'm... Fine. Just a bit shaken up." The amount of people who had died in her dream from her powers made her terrified of herself, "He wants me to join him. His name is Silas Grey, and he is, as we suspected, the disciple of Darkrai." She bites her lip, "He wants me to come to my true potential, and help him on his quest. He told me that he never met to directly hurt me, and that even his houndoom acted on its own when it burnt me." The nightmares came rushing back to her as she remembered, "But he also chipped away at my metal stability. When I heard you in my dream, I was able to over come that." Arietta looks up at Colt directly, "If the idiot wanted me to join him he shouldn't have made me dream of killing everyone here, including my pokemon." She shivered, "It was.. Terrifying."

Colt looked at Ariettas' face. It was as pale as a pachirisus' fur. Her nightmare must of been something else. Her own personal hell created specifically for her by this Silas Grey. At first he thought Silas was a strong, worthy opponent, but now he knew he was a dangerous individual who was willing to do any means necessary to reach his goals. Colt rotated his arm, examining the belt Arietta had tied around it. "Thanks." Colt knew that Silas needed to be stopped. He was very dangerous and had no qualms with hurting innocent bystanders. Colt would do any means necessary to stop Silas, even if it meant... Colt clenched his fist. 'No,' He thought. 'I am not like him. I am not like that monster in my dreams.' Maybe it wasn't a good idea to attempt to fight him immediately. Colt was worried that he might do something he would regret. "When you're all healed up and ready to go, meet me at cycling road." Colt said, holding in his inner frustration as best he could. "If you are going to face him, you need to be stronger. right now, even without his powers he could wipe the floor with you." Colt realized he had been saying 'you' and not 'we'. At this moment, Colt didn't think he could face Silas. He was confident in his abilities to handle him in a fight, but not in his abilities to handle himself.

Arietta shivered, "Okay. But we should wake up the hospital, I think they're stuck in nighmares, as well." She takes the rest of the energy and amps up the medication on her leg, and begins to un-wrap the bandages. Her leg was almost completely healed, but covered in red patches from the burn. She got on her feet and grabbed her pokeballs. "Come on out, guys." She says as she opens the spheres. Jeeves, Scim, and Moraya come out and look at her, expectantly and with a hint of worry, "Don't worry, I'm fine." She smiles, "But we need to wake people up around the hospital. But be careful, and if you encounter anything weird, run." She warns, and starts out the door after ripping the IV out of her arm. She stops at the door, and looks back at Colt, "You be careful, too." And she begins her round at the hospital.

Colt waited untill Arietta walks out of the room, then collapses against the hospital bed. "That was exhausting." Colt let out the longest sigh he has ever sighed. Lucifer looks up at him, worried. "Don't worry, Lucifer. I'll be fine." Colt slowly forced himself up and looked at his watch. It was well past 7:00Pm. "We should get ready to hit the road. Ariettas' got this place handled. It would be a good idea to stop off at the store to grab some food and water." Colt left the hospital to go get some supplies for the trip.

Arietta wakes up some staff members, and they begin to take care of the rest of the hospital. After awhile, her pokemon come back as well. "Lets go back to the hotel, gather our stuff, and head out with Colt.."
When Arietta enters her trashed room, she smiles when she finds out that, somehow, all of her stuff was intact. Arietta opens her laptop and turns it on. Yeah, everything was alright. She goes downstairs and checks out, saying that she was attacked in her room and they should be lucky she isn't suing. Then she heads out to the cycling road.

Colt left the store with supplies in hand, stuffing them into his inside jacket pocket after leaving. Colt headed out to cycling road, with Lucifer in tow. He looked into the sky, seeing the darkening sky. " I don't think we can get to Mauville today." Colt said, looking down at Lucifer. He was used to it, really, sleeping outside. He found it fun; facing the elements head on, enduring nature. He wasn't sure how Arietta would handle it though. He usually didn't travel with other people. He found that others usually dragged him down, made him weak. However, under the circumstances, there were many adjustments he had to make. When Colt arrived at cycling road, he was surprised to see Arietta ahead of him. "You're here early." Colt joked. "We're headed to Mauville city. route 110 is the fastest way. Even so, we won't make it to Mauville in the day, so if you have everything with you follow me." Colt started walking through route 110.
