Umbreon's playful and competitive nature kept her quiet but at the same time she resolved herself to rip Weavile a new one if she succeeded. She waited for her opportunity, kind of wanting her to succeeded and not wanting her to touch Espeon at the same time. Espeon could feel something was off, not that he heard them but mostly concerned that he didn't. It worried him more that they weren't arguing then anything else. He was on alert, trying to figure out what silenced Umbreon but not bothering to look behind him.

Weavile casually walked up behind Espeon as quietly as she could, with the berry still in her claw, until she was an arms length from him.

OOC: Kind of surprised Goodra hasn't said or done anything as well.
BIC: Espeon was still alert, but hadn't picked up on Weavile just yet. His eye's began to glow as he scanned the area for Vaporeon, but obviously Absol, Umbreon, and Weavile didn't show up in his senses.

ooc: I'm constantly thinking if I should let Goodra interfere or not. I want to play this out with Espeon and Unbreon, but I also want Goodra to say something to Umbreon, but I'm not sure how to phrase it. I don't want Goodra to start a commotion, especially since she can't really do anything if Umbreon is getting along with Weavile and made her walk in front of her willingly, but still want her to stop anyone from doing anything they'd regret. Right now I'm kinda having her be content with Umbreon and Weavile and let her thoughts wonder to Vaporeon and Absol and kind of missing Weavile sneaking up to Umbreon. Weavile went a little nearer to Espeon. She looked back towards Umbreon and winked as she crushed the berry in her claw and then slowly reached out to touch Espeon on his rear.

OOC: ... makes sense to me. BIC: At the sound of the berry crushing, Espeon's ear twisted to face Weavile and his face soon followed. In a second he realized who it was and was immediately on the defensive. OOC: By the way, I'm just making it interesting, she's still not going to tough him. I'll have no choice but to react with Umbreon if I allow that.

ooc: Oh, this is going to escalate quite quickly. Weavile was waiting for exactly this to happen and as soon as Espeon's face turned towards her she leaned in for the kiss. ooc: Didn't kiss him yet, I'll let you decide how close that was.

OOC: You know it's bad when I need to chant to myself over and over again to not go too far with my reactions. BIC: With his psychic, Espeon raised a section of the ground behind Weavile while ducking his head. He did this with such speed, that Weavile would have actually touched the afterimage. The rock wall served too purposes, first it offered a surface for Weavile to hit when Espeon head butt her in the chest and against the wall. Second, it barred the quickly approaching Umbreon who hit the wall with such force as the crack it in multiple places.

ooc: Weavile doubled over and fell to the ground clutching her chest in pain, but as soon as she got her breath back she started laughing even though she couldn't stand up. "I almost got you, I almost got you both." She laughed staring with one eye up at Espeon. Meowstic spun around at the sudden commotion and Goodra ran up to Espeon and Weavile seconds later, leaning down next to the dark pokemon to see how hurt she was.

Espeon looked down on Weavile as he made his way to Umbreon. She had knocked herself out colliding head first into the rock and Espeon rolled his eyes, leaning down and shifting her on his back. Vaporeon stuck close to Goodra, not knowing what was happening. Absol only looked back for a moment and once he was certain Goodra and Meowstic were fine he continued along walking to their destination.

"Can you stand?" Goodra asked Weavile. "I'll be fine." Weavile said, although she clearly wasn't going to stand for a while. "I can manage on my own." Goodra looked up at Absol continuing along and back down at Weavile. She sighed ad picked her up. "I don't need your help." Weavile said through gritted teeth. "This doesn't mean anything, you're only doing it for yourself." "I know." Goodra answered and carried Weavile after the others.

Vaporeon watched Weavile's revolting and Goodra's continued aid. She saw how Espeon attacked and Umbreon's reaction caught her off guard. She even noted how Meowstic and Absol looked back, though Absol moved on. She wondered how this group ever formed in the first place.

"Why are you pretending that you want to help me?" Weavile asked Goodra after a while of walking. "I can see how much you hate me, I can see how much Espeon, Umbreon and even Absol hates me. I am more than familiar with the look. So if you hate me, why pretend that you want to help." "I'm not perfect." Goodra said looking away. "I do hate you, you're everything I hate seeing in a pokemon." "What? Because I bring out your true colors? I noticed how distant you've started becoming since I joined you. Not as buddy buddy with Umbreon anymore, not talking with Meowstic as much." "No, you don't care about any other pokemon and you don't care about yourself. If we're acting the way we are because of you that's our own fault." "So why help me then?" "Helping you is easy, it's who I am." Goodra told her. "The part I want to change about myself is not hating you."

OOC: Going to continue again.
BIC: The group continued and the trees started to thin out. The rushing and pounding of the water against the stone and the waterfall could be heard in the distance. Their destination was fast approaching.

Weavile jumped out of Goodra's arms and stumbled before she straightened herself out and then continued with the rest without so much as a thank you. Goodra didn't seem to mind though.

Absol came to a sudden stop and looked around. The trees began to rustle and out of the trees came multiple Polywhirl. The group was quickly surrounded and the sounds of the trees showed more were coming. Espeon and Absol watched as the scene unfolded, trying to make sense of what was happening but being calm and collect about it. Vaporeon seemed fearful as she was suddenly surrounded and she jumped behind Goodra. Umbreon disappeared as quickly as the water pokemon appeared and they didn't seem to notice.

ooc: Wasn't Umbreon knocked out?
Meowstic stepped closer to Absol and her eyes started to glow. Weavile didn't really seem very phased by everything. "What's going on?" Goodra asked Vaporeon. "Do you know these pokemon?"

OOC: Yes, Espeon got her out of sight quickly, I just didn't word it like that. I wanted to hint at the speed of him moving her as it looking like she'd just disappeared.
BIC: "They're the polywhirl. Normally they just fight and train in the dojo, but it seems they're acting as a guard force now. Normally access to the heart of the river is open." Vaporeon explained. As she did the ground shook as a larger Polywrath landed in front of the group. He was silent at first until he spotted Vaporeon, "Move forward!" He yelled and the pokemon came in from all angles. They seemed to understand, however, and only went after Vaporeon. Absol only watched that they didn't get close to Meowstic or himself, trusting Goodra to defend herself, and didn't act since they didn't attack.

Goodra stepped between Vaporeon and the poliwhirl and stood up to her full length. "What's going on here?" She demanded from the Poliwrath. "Why are you surrounding us?"

"You are harboring a criminal. She's to be judged for her crimes." Polywrath said, walking up clearly to handle this himself. Vaporeon stayed hidden, not sure what this was all about. She was helping combat the force fighting the people but it seemed they were blaming her for those crimes. Absol watched closely, lending himself more to the observant angle instead of his normal reactive nature.

"What's her crimes? And judged by who?" Goodra asked standing her ground.

Polywrath crossed his arms, "We have multiple eye witnesses placing her at the scene of multiple attacks against the pokemon. When confronted, she attacked us and disappeared into the water after an attack. We've been on high alert since and now that she's here she needs to pay for her crimes." he said, pointing to the watery pokemon who still looked just as confused as before. He then took a step forward, "And the whole time, Vaporeon always yelled about us not finding her friend who made her do everything she was doing. You'll need to come in as suspect accomplice of Vaporeon. Will you come quietly?" he said with no little authority. OOC: I finally figured out what I want to do with this mini arc.

"Do you know anything about what he's talking about?" Goodra asked Vaporeon.

"There had been attacks, like I told you. I was there fighting it before being knocked out and floating down river. I'm not the pokemon that was attacking everyone, though." Vaporeon said to her defense. "Will she be tried fairly or is she already guilty?" Espeon spoke up. "The community will decide her guilt based on evidences. Milotic will make the final judgement." Polywrath said, knowing Vaporeon understood the process.

Goodra nodded. "We'll go with you, but only to try and resolve this peacefully." "If it's all the same." Weavile spoke up. "I'll sit this out. I've been to these kind of 'trails' before and I have no intention of joining in another."

"Come with me." Polywrath said and turned around. The Polywhirl still had the pair circled and waited for them to get a move on. Vaporeon stuck close to Goodra, going where she would and trusting her in this at least. "I take it we'll need to stick around then." Absol said and looked to Meowstic. "I've got to go. I'll look into this, but I trust you guys to handle it." Espeon said and looked to Meowstic, "I'll be nearby. Call if you need me." He said and was gone in a blur. "Useless." Absol said as he left.

Goodra followed and Meowstic nodded to Espeon before she also followed closed to Absol. Weavile stood her ground, no intention of going with the crowd. "If I were you I'd keep her away from this." She told Absol shortly.

"I can handle myself." Absol said and the group walked on. The trees opened suddenly into a beautiful area looking like a 5star beach. There was a small town area with huts that seemed to spill over into the lake and lights under the water showed that the huts down there were inhabited as well. The water fall towered on high and larger huts could be seen up there. The group was lead to the waterfalls base and a cave behind that. They were brought to a series of holes carved out of the rock and pointed to a pair of them, "Goodra, enter this hut and Vaporeon the other." Polywrath said and stepped aside. Vaporeon looked to Goodra before entering the first little cave.

Goodra went into the hut she was told to. Meowstic kept close to Absol. Weavile stood where they had left her outside the village. She looked up at the sky and gave a sigh as she pulled her cloak tightly around her.

Once Goodra and Vaporeon were in their respective holes, Polywrath sealed the front with an icebeam, leaving a space to speak through and for air. The wall was clear but strong. "How long is it till this trial?" Absol asked, not enthusiastically. "It will be When the moon is high in the sky. Middle of the night." Polywrath said, "Though Milotic will be reviewing evidence at sunset as well. This can tell you where the case is standing and helps the pokemon that can't stay up late understand where the case stands. Judgement will be passed based on the evidence accumulated." Polywrath explained as though they were their defense attorney. "And what evidence has already been pulled together against her?" Absol asked. The three eye witnesses and targets of her previous attacks. And an object left behind by her at the scene of the last attack." Polywrath said. OOC: In case it's not obvious, this is set up to sort of mimic an Ace Attorney case. Figured I'd try my hand at it.

ooc: Interesting. Will Absol be playing a spiky defense attorney with Meowstic by his side or will Goodra have to take the role here?
Meowstic looked up at Goodra. "Will you be fine?" "I'll be alright as long as this trail is fair." Goodra said, and somewhat to the Polywrath. "It's not wise to try and deceive a dragon pokemon after all, especially this one."
