Ashe meandered her way out into the battlefield. The stadium was a great place for her to hone her skills, and when she'd heard Iris begging Peach to help her fill for a double battle in the magical girl's society she'd known it was her opportunity to get to know the dragon champion a bit better.

Ashe flashed an informal salute with two of her fingers to the crowd as she took her place in the stadium

Meanwhile, Iris ran past her, taking on the crowd with great joy. She waved her arms, displaying a wide open-toothed grin for everyone. The unova champion relished in these performances; the chance to better herself and fight powerful opponents was one of the best things in her little world.

"Hello, Sunshine Stadium~!"

After being asked numerous times by Shizuka, Rosalyn gave In and decided to fight with Iris and Ashe In a duel, she got ready and met Shizuka at the stadium where they quickly entered, wearing an orange high school jock coat, with a shirt of a gecko on the inside and a green skirt with her regular shoes. "So, why are we doing this useless dual again?" Rosalyn said to Shizuka as she checked her weapons...Shizuka was doing the same.

"Because...It feel's like training for me, training for the unknown future, plus we can show these two how strong were are In battle." Shizuka said as Rosalyn shrugged. "I guess, since It's for fun...Right, plus Iris Is there, she's always so nice...So far." Rosalyn said as Shizuka looked towards the entrance to the battle. "Looks like were here." She said as the entered the middle of the stadium.

The two looked at the crowd cheering of them, which consisted of plants, two of them were Pippi and Sunny. "Go Rosalyn, I love you girl!" Sunny said cheerfully as Pippi shouted. "DO IT FOR US ROSALYN, DO IT FOR US!" He said as Sunny almost fell off her seat In surprise. Rosalyn was surprised that plants came to support her, she was happy that they wanted her and Shizuka to win. "Looks like you go supporters..." Shizuka said as Rosalyn grabbed Shizukas hand...Surprising her.

"There your supporters as well, and no matter what...There still going to cheer for us If we win or lose...Ready?" Rosalyn said as Shizuka smirked at her best friend.

"Ready."

The two turned towards Iris and Ashe, with Rosalyn waving at Iris as Shizuka looked back at the crowd, waiting for the referee to appear. "I wonder who the referee will be?" Shizuka said as Rosalyn spoke to both Iris and Ashe.

"So...You two excited for this dual, I must warn you though...Me and Shizuka are not going to hold back."

[Mr. Game & Watch]

The cheers, the fans. Something about it, the feel of the joy in their eyes somehow filled the fighters with determination! It was almost like they were transferring their excitement directly to the warriors’ souls below. Like an injection of adrenaline, minus the part that squeamish people hated the most. The thrill of the fight was coursing through their veins and soon they would be granted what they were seeking the most.

A blur of red and green zipped by the foursome, the speed of the creature being too quick to get a good read on it until it ceased its racing and revealed itself at the centermost part of the arena. The bird flapped its cape like wings in the wind and embraced the crowd’s reaction with open arms. “OOOOOOOO YEAH! It’s about to get real! I’ve been to the top of the mountain! I’ve never seen fighters like these before! But let me tell yah something! If this isn’t the wildest match up I ever did see, then this will surely be the biggest disappointment of the century! Ooo yeah!”

“Now, lemme tell yah something brothers… Sisters. You only got five minutes, five minutes of tea time! You gotta show all these men and women why they paid for their tickets! You ain’t going nowhere until then. Got it!? Now I don’t wanna see no cheap shots, nobodies coming out of this a mangled corpse! It’s just the four of yah in this ring here, ain’t nobody gonna help yah. I don’t wanna hurt nobody, but when cheaters step up, I stomp cheating in masses. Ooo yeah!” The hawk hybrid announced, flexing its biceps casually as it spoke. Once its message was finished, the creature swooped out of the battlefield to allow the chaos to commence.

[Mari]

"Thanks Rosalyn! I think you seem really nice too, but looks aren't everything~!" Iris remarked with a wink, striking an enthusiastic pose. She seemed to be enjoying herself. "...I think everyone here has a prettier outfit than me." Ashe replied rather anxiously in a rare display of self-consciousness. She was, of course, sporting the skin-tight body armor look. Iris returned her gaze, smiling brightly at the other teen. "That's okay! I think the horns on your helmet are kind of cute~!" she replied encouragingly, drawing a bemused stare from Ashe. "Uh... thanks!" Ashe replied, smiling in an overtly awkward way in response. She didn't feel pretty or cute, especially in this armor, but it didn't seem like Iris was making fun of her so she accepted the compliment.

Ashe
"Well I hope you girls are ready! We can't hold back, so let us know if you need to stop." Ashe went on to remark in a friendly tone, simultaneously drawing her busters. One did not simply 'hold back' with deadly weapons. "Here it comes!" she announced as she began to take aim. She didn't feel right trying to catch these two upstanding ladies off guard with her guns. Even still, this was a fight and she had to take action sooner or later. Just as she finished speaking her laser shots opened fire and she peppered the area around Shizuka.

While Ashe was busy spraying covering fire at Shizuka her laser shots spun in her hands, the ring-shaped busters having two barrels at two opposite ends of the busters. She quickly took aim at Rosalyn with one of her busters, firing off a single shot at the other woman to keep her busy. This shot however looked much different. Rather than a plasma bullet it looked more like a bolt of plasma lightning, beelining out towards Rosalyn and homing in on her! The attack had penetrative power and turn around in mid air if it missed, forcing Rosalyn to dodge it multiple times!

Iris
Meanwhile, Iris tossed out one of her pokeballs and Haxorus emerged! She had a feeling that the armored raptor pokemon would fare well in the stadium. She was a gladiator if Iris had ever seen one. Haxorus emerged in a flash of red light and stretched her muscles, literally shaking off her disorientation as she entered the battlefield. Without a single spoken command Haxorus' and Iris' eyes locked onto their prey, Shizuka. Haxorus' abruptly seemed to spontaneously combust as she burst into a sprint at Shizuka, rushing the girl down with her body in an attempt to ram into her!

p_1d20+7 (Haxorus' Critical Incinerate @ Shizuka; Does 8% Damage if it hits and burns)

After coming to a stop nearby, Haxorus' body extinguished itself and she turned to press inwards on the woman, turning her head up in a clear warning signal of her next attack. After a moment she brought her head down, attempting to cleave Shizuka with her head-axe! This was followed by a rising cleave and in turn another swing of her head in quick succession. It honestly looked a little bit silly, watching her swing her head around, but there was no arguing with the results those axes could inflict if they landed their marks.

Rosalyn and Shizuka turned towards the referee, who turned out to be a pokemon, wow that was so...Expected, since the two would see Pokemon all the time, but the thing that Rosalyn was interested In him was that he could talk. "Wait, you can talk?" Rosalyn said sounding surprised as Iris talked back to Rosalyn, who said that they cant judge people by there looks, causing Rosalyn to giggle. "Yeah, I know that...Hahaha." Rosalyn said happily as the match finally began.


Finally, It's to fight these girls.

"Let's go Shizuka!" Rosalyn said to her best friend who nodded as Rosalyn ran towards Ashe, who was currently about to fire at Shizuka, once Rosalyn realised this however, she turned towards her to warn her. "Shizuka, gun attack!" She said as Shizuka looked at Ashe.

"Got It..."



kaUum2aOp_1d20+2(Nope, she didn't get to dodge.)

"Argh!" Shizuka said as she was hit by the laser shots and was sent backwards as Rosalyn watched nearby, as Shizuka got up, Iris focused on her now as she threw out her pokeball. Wait, Pokemon were going to be In the battle!?...Oh crap. Shizuka watched as Haxrous appeared out of Iris pokeball and charged towards Shizuka...Who tried to dodge the Pokemon's attack, maybe she wont have to face him...But maybe the one who released him.

But first.

"I guess I'll dodge..."

p_1d20+2(And she cant withstand It.)

Shizuka was burnt by Haxrous attack and fell to the ground. She struggled to get up and watched as The Pokemon was about to cleave her, she tried to dodge once more by rolling out of the way of the cleave.

p_1d20+2(Yes...)

p_1d20+2(Doing well.)

p_1d20+2(And she got hit.)

Shizuka managed to dodge the first two attacks...But was hit by the last one. "Ow." Shizuka said as she got up and had an idea...Maybe Haxrous should face another enemy, like his alley. Shizuka looked at Ashe before looking back at Haxrous, quickly she stood In front of the robot woman and tried to make the Pokemon charge Into her once more...So she can get out of the way last minute and make Haxrous crash Into Ashe Instead.

If that works...She can face Iris, unless she has another Pokemon that she's about to throw.

"Nice try...But your attacks are still weak, do better."

---

Meanwhile as Shizuka faced Iris & Haxrous, Rosalyn focused more on Ashe and ran towards her...However the woman fired plasma lightning at her and It seemed to be home based. "Oh no." Rosalyn said as she tried to dodge the three shots fired at her before she can focus back on Ashe.


p_1d20+4(Dodged the first one.)

p_1d20+4(And second...)

p_1d20+4(But of course, not the last.)

Rosalyn was hit by one of the plasmids, but turned towards Ashe and smiled.

"Well, those were great attacks...

...

...

...

Now Rosalyn!"

Rosalyn fired a shot from her pea gun towards Ashe, and since she was close enough after jumping out of the way from those plasma's, she took out her cat'o nine tales and tried to slash her with It.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

“*Snore*”

“Hey, I think we’re on…”

“*Snore*”

“…I said WE’RE LIVE!”

“HUH?! AH HA HA HA! WELCOME ONE AND ALL TO THE GREATEST MATCH UP OF ALL TIME!”

“Way to start it off…”

“What more could be said of these four lovely ladies!? Big Top, get me some coffee.”

“…Yes, I’ll get right on that. I will somehow miraculously grow a pair of hands and do that for you.”

“If you would be so kind, Big Top! That would be wonderful! I don’t think I’ve left this spot in the last seven days! So many matches! So little time!”

“…I know. Thank whatever demonic being that created me for forgetting to give me nostrils.”

“Nonsense, Big Top! It is the scent of true passion and devotion to one’s work! If someone were to so much as take a whiff of me it would inspire them to do the greatest of things and explore their art to the upmost degree! I invite all to take a good sniff after this match is complete!”

“…You know someone else could’ve filled in our place… There’s plenty of other guys around who could ignore the fight and talk about what they had for breakfast this morning…”

“I can’t, Big Top! I won’t! All these people come here for the best and I shall give it to them! I won’t give in to fatigue or anxiety! This is my job and I shall see it to the very end!”

“…How inspiring…”

“Soldiers cannot just simply decide that they aren’t well rested enough to fight! If they choose not to fight then it means the end for us all! I am a soldier on the front lines, Big Top! I shall not cease what I do until the battle is won!”

“…I get it…”

“Every tear and every drop of sweat of my existence has all funneled into the cup that is the Sunshine Stadium! I will not rest until every single audience member has taken a sip of it! Even if it is that little bit that gets trapped in the creases at the bottom and becomes incredibly difficult to get out of the cup and you have to shake it a couple times before that droplet will finally crawl down into your throat!”

“…Please stop…and ewww…”

“Oh hey, that little girl has a dinosaur.”

[Mari]

Shizuka's tactic was sound in theory but there was one small detail she hadn't considered, through no fault of her own. Haxorus had four eyes; not literally mind you, but metaphorically. While the armored raptor pokmeon seemed tunnel visioned in on Shizuka, something seemed to break her concentration as she neared Ashe. Perhaps Rosalyn would notice Iris staring intently at the girls, the expression on her face one of concentration. Though no words were spoken, Haxorus seemed to recognize a command to stop and staggered mere feet from Ashe. The cyborg girl flinched and recoiled slightly, unaware of the psychic conversation going on, but was ultimately left untrampled. "Getting a little close there, huh Iris..?" Ashe asked, a tad uncomfortable with being used as a meat shield. "Yeah, but that's okay! We knew you were there." Iris replied proudly, smiling brightly at the other girl.

...But then her attention turned back to Shizuka and all that pleasantness just sort of melted from her expression, leaving her with a rather disappointed pout. If the other's plan had been to force Iris' hand, she'd been successful.

((Iris has been taunted! She has temporarily forgotten Rosalyn exists.))


Ashe

Ashe watched Iris and Haxorus turn back upon Shizuka in unison. It was a tad odd an eerie, watching how their movements seem to match up to each other like some sort of synchronized dance. Ashe did not have much time to question the nature of the two's relationship, however, as Rosalyn picked up the slack for Shizuka and came at her with several attacks.

ZqQmzluQp_1d20+5 (Ashe's Peagun Dodge)
p_1d20+5 (Ashe's Cat O' Ninetails Dodge)

The mega'man' deftly ducked and slipped between Rosalyn's at the last moment, as if deliberately giving the other false confidence in her ability to land blows. If Rosalyn actually paid attention, however, she'd see that quick and dodgy movements were clearly Ashe's specialty. Ashe lunged backward the moment she was given a chance to breathe, but instead of firing off another shot at Rosalyn she instead holstered her laser shots and struck a pose as her body was enveloped by a bright white light. A magical girl transformation followed, only instead of turning into a cheerleader ...OH GOODNESS WHAT WAS THAT?!

Ashe's mass increased fourty fold and when the glow faded an enormous monster of a creature stood in her place, bearing down on Rosalyn with several hundred pounds of cruel looking teeth.

"Are you sure up in my grill is where you want to be right now~?" Ashe asked, her voice now a cross between it's normal self and the bassy baritones of Bifrost, who oddly enough shares a voice actor with Master Hand. She did not give Rosalyn much of a chance to answer however, bearing over the other and emitting a rather intimidating growling noise. It was rather difficult to argue with four thousand pounds of metal and teeth bearing over you, but then again Rosalyn knew what was hiding underneath that guise.

p_1d20+2 (Ashe's Collosus Might! Intimidates Rosalyn if succesful)

Regardless, Ashe would begin turning around after a moment. It might be a confusing premise for an attack, turning your back on an enemy, but when Bifrost's giant tail came swinging around her intentions would become quite clear The attack had more than enough weight behind it to send Rosalyn flying if she didn't manage to get out of the way, which thanks to Bifrost's incredible size was easier said than done.

p_1d20+8 (Ashe's Tail Whip! Deals 12% Damage and launches Rosalyn if it hits.)

Completing her spin, Ashe turned back around to face Rosalyn and promptly spit out what appeared to be a fittingly giant sawblade that promptly began racing across the ground towards Rosalyn, threatening to cut her with it's rapidly spinning spiky edges. Two more of it's kind followed in rapid succession.

Iris
Meanwhile, Iris considered Shizuka's words. She'd called her ... weak? Her? Weak? Oooh... That was one way to get her blood boiling. She couldn't resist a challenge like that. "...Return, Haxorus!" Iris called out. While Haxorus was obviously a great choice for the battle, she knew a pokemon that would simply be funner to use. Besides, she couldn't let Ashe hog all the glory! "Dragonite, I choose you!" she called out, releasing the biggest and 'toughest' of her pokemon. Dragonite emerged onto the battlefield in a burst of red light, his cold and rather hostile gaze sweeping over the occupants before settling on Shizuka. Seeing this relatively small girl placed in front of him as if she were a legitimate threat frankly offended the proud pokemon. Was he expected to flex his muscles over some petty squabbles? This was not in line with his code of honor. Luckily, the two quickly came to a compromise.

...and began dancing. It was as if they were in sync, girl and pokemon making identical moves on two different scales. It was an energetic and tribal dance that soon yielded a blue glow about Dragonite's body. This was quickly followed by a transluscent shield that seemed to form around him. With a stomp of their feet, Iris and Dragonite shouted in unison.

"Raaa! Hit me, I dare you!" ("Raaa! Hit me, I dare you!") they both exclaimed simultaneously, though it was unlikely anyone understood Dragonite's pokespeak. Had Iris just demanded that Shizuka hit her? It was as if she had gotten too caught up in imitating Dragonite and forgotten who she really was. There was, of course, nothing preventing Shizuka from doing exactly that. Though, whether hurting the trainer was an intelligent strategy when Dragonite was right there ready to defend her was questionable.

After Rosalyn's attack dodged Ashe, she turned after noticing Shizuka was struggling to handle Haxrous...Only managing to make It return to Iris and...Pretend like Rosalyn did not exist, so she can focus solely on Shizuka...Wait, this gave her an idea...However Rosalyn should focus on Ashe first...Who was turning Into, a dinosaur?

And tried to intimidate her.


qoLDjHsWp_1d20+5(Not so much...)


Rosalyn yawned. "Honestly, I've been through worse stuff then someone's mouth so I have to say...Meh?" Rosalyn said as she noticed Ashe's tail coming towards her, she quickly tried to dodge the tail whip that will send her high In the air.

"A tail whip...Perfect."


p_1d20+3(Rosalyn trying to dodge the tail whip.)

Rosalyn was launched In the air...Just as she expected as she took out her clover copter and slowly landed towards the battlefield. "Brace yourself Clove, I don't think our enemy's done with us yet!" Rosalyn said to Clove who replied. "Aok!" He said as Ashe fired three sawblade's towards the two, threatening to cut them.


p_1d20+3(She got hit...)

p_1d20+3(And again.)

p_1d20+3(At least she dodged the last one.)

The two were hit by two of the saw blades, ripping Clove In half, Rosalyn gasped as her ally was ripped apart and she was soon hit after. "Clove...Uh oh!" Rosalyn said as she fell towards Shizuka, Dragonite and Iris...All according to plan. Rosalyn called out towards Shizuka. "Shizuka, switch enemy's!" Rosalyn said to her friend who nodded before running towards Ashe...Rosalyn meanwhile took out her cherry bombs and threw them towards Iris...As the Cherry Bomb's laugh, Rosalyn slid down near Dragonite and looked up at him.

p_1d20+4(Cherry Bomb Deluxe: If hit, Iris will get 8% damage.)

"The girl you were going to attack there has moved on to another enemy, I shall be her replacement...So, my turn!"

Meanwhile with Shizuka, she looked up at Ashe after switching targets with Rosalyn. "So...Your just a girl under that form?" She said as she smirked. "Perfect..." Shizuka said as she took out her raygun and proceeded to fire three shots at Ashe.

"Hope you can deal with the heat..."

“He-je-bi-je…”

“This might actually be the saddest moment in his entire career… And that’s pretty impressive all things considered.”

“*Snore*”

“…And he’s out again… Wow, he missed an opportune moment to freak out. I think that girl just transformed into a giant robot dinosaur.”

“ah ha ha ha… welcome to the star carnival…”

“Too bad that trying to make the opponents run into each other didn’t work out. Having that one dinosaur thing accidentally fall into the other dinosaur thing would’ve been very slapstick-y”

“no, you all win. Everyone gets bonus stars…”

“…It feels so weird actually talking about the match. I’m too monotone to make it exciting either… hrm…”

“Ooo yeah! Then it’s time to heat things up! Dig it, Ballyhoo, snap into a Shuca Berry! Snap into the SPICE!”

“WOAH! I feel refreshed! And I suddenly also feel like I can take on an earthquake! Like the very ground itself couldn’t possibly get me down! Thank you mysterious talking bird luchador!”

JoMlHMN3p_1d20-1 (Iris' Bomb Evasion)

Iris just sort of caught the laughing cherry bomb in her hands, confused as to how a laughing cherry was supposed to be dangerous. She supposed that laughing food would get kind of old once you got hungry. Did you want your steak to laugh at you while you cut it? It sounded horrible. While the cherry's danger was initially lost on Iris, the ensuing explosion was not. The princess clad girl was knocked on her bottom by the blast, looking rather bewildered as to what had just happened. Thankfully, her hair was too resilient for such a small explosion to ruin it.

p_1d20+0 (Dragonite's rather unfortunate dodge)

Dragonite was decidedly less impressed, casually sidestepping Rosalyn's peagun and moving to insert himself inbetwixt his trainer and the opposing girl in one motion. Iris, beginning to recover from her shock, hopped up back to her feet. Had she accidentally asked someone to hit her? Huh. So she had. "...I guess becoming one with your pokemon isn't a solution to every problem." Iris remarked in embarrassment, apparently unfazed by the violence directed at her. "Hey Ashe! We're getting played like bidoofuses over here! Let's try throwing our weight around!" Iris called out over the battlefield, gesturing to the other big figure.

p_1d20+0 (Ashe's attempt at grasping what in the world Iris was saying)

...The Mega 'Man' was decidedly lost. She grasped that Iris wanted her to throw her weight around, but that was about the full extent and depth of what she got from that exchange, sending her ally a rather blank look from across the battlefield. What was a bidoofus? She didn't reply, not wanting to look foolish. She'd just have to hope Iris would do the work for her and present her with an opportunity. Luckily for Ashe, that was about the full depth of Iris' plan anyway.

Dragonite, unscathed by the previous turn of battle, stepped forward to return the favor Rosalyn had paid Iris. He had spent his last turn gathering strength and focus and now was the time to cash in on that prep time. ("...I wanted to show the other girl true strength, but this will do.") Dragonite grumbled, both disappointed that he wasn't able to respond to Shizuka's taunt and thoroughly annoyed that his trainer had just taken a bomb to the face. Dragonite lunged at Rosalyn, pulling one of his arms back. The aforementioned arm was surrounded by a pretty white aura, the only warning sign of what attack Dragonite was about to use. It was his Focus Punch! Bringing his fist down, Dragonite attempted to strike Rosalyn with incredible force.

p_1d20+8 (Dragonite's Focus Punch @ Rosalyn; Does 28% Damage)

After the punch struck, with or without having hit Rosalyn, Dragonite abruptly glanced behind him as if taking notice of something. He'd just received a very different set of commands. Spreading his wings, he promptly took to the air and pulled back from Rosalyn, quarter circling the arena until he could line Rosalyn up with Shizuka. he then swooped down, gaining a large ammount of speed to compliment his impressive weight. It looked like he was trying to ram straight into them! Rather than stop once he hit his mark however, his momentum was enough to keep carrying him right into Shizuka, possibly with Rosalyn in tow.

p_1d20+5 (Dragonite's Dragon Rush @ Both Rosalyn & Shizuka; Does 22% Damage)

p_1d20-4 (Ashe's Raygun Dodging Skills)
p_1d20-4 (Ashe's Raygun Dodging Skills)
p_1d20-4 (Ashe's Raygun Dodging Skills)

Bifrost Ashe's jaw just sort of dropped slightly at Rosalyn's response, stunned by her indifference. How did one simply 'go through worse' than someone's mouth? Did they just ... keep going?! While Ashe was busy gawking at Rosalyn a series of ray gun blasts impacted her body. The first two took her by surprise, but she was able to raise a lovely blue bubble shield in time to block the third. Her humongous body had made dodging them a difficult prospect.

Before she could properly respond to Rosalyn however, the woman was replaced with another. Ashe turned to acknowledge Shizuka, a shiver running down her spine at the other's choice of words. "What do you mean, just a girl?" Ashe asked in an accusing tone. The remark appeared to have bothered her, as well as creeped her out a little bit. Dang man, what was with these girls being so eerie? She had thought she'd be the one inspiring fear, but right now she was feeling rather intimidated instead. She had to remind herself that this was a public place. What was the worst that could happen? ...Right?

Seeing Iris' Dragonite plow through the two women, either scattering them as they dodged or knocking them around as fate might have it, Ashe saw her opening. That was a pretty handy distraction Iris had just created, one that limited Shizuka's movement opportunities.

"Hyup~!"

Likely to everyone but Ashe's surprise, she proceeded to leap into the air, using her massive body as a projectile by flinging herself bodily at Shizuka in an effort to catch her off guard! She would land with a very loud crash nearby, hopefully not right on top of the other woman for her own sake. The sheer force of her impact would rock the stadium, creating a shockwave that traveled across the ground, threatening to slam into Shizuka if the initial attack missed, as well as Rosalyn if she happened to be close enough.

As Rosalyn tried to get to Iris, she was stopped by Dragonite...Who beat her up along with Shizuka with the help of Ashe. After a series of moves they pulled, Rosalyn got up to dodge Ashe's next attack which was the shockwave of her last attack. "Uh oh...Hang on Shizuka, let me dodge this attack and we can move forward with out next plan." Rosalyn said to Shizuka who was currently recovering as Rosalyn tried to dodge the shockwave.

8kA5_Nzqp_1d20+4(And...She obviously dodged.)

After dodging the shockwave, Rosalyn helped Shizuka up on the floor and turned towards the trio. "Now...Were outnumbered." Rosalyn said as Shizuka nodded. "Yes...But maybe we can change that." Shizuka said as she called out a swarm of birds towards the stadium, together they aimed an egg towards Dragonite and dropped It towards him...Hoping It will hit him.


p_1d20+1(Hard Boiled Drop: If hit, Dragonite will get 15% damage.)

After calling the birds, Rosalyn shot three Pea's towards Ashe.

((Starii! Three things. One, player character HP has been buffed to a 150% standard just so you know. Two, characters don't normally die in PVP, even if they take enough damage that would normally kill them. Just letting you know that too. And three, G&W had to step away from the site for real life business. Cool has agreed to issue a final verdict once we post our fifth turns, though, so not all is lost! He won't post in between our posts like G&W did though.))


2Iuejy90p_1d20 (Dragonite gettin' scrambled on fail-dodge)

THWACK! A loud crack was heard as a hard-boiled egg just sort of smacked into Dragonite's skull. It shattered against the translucent barrier around his body, which seemed to soften the impact somewhat. Never the less, a solitary tear rolled down Dragonite's cheek. Well, that was embarrassing. The proud pokemon wasn't about to stop and cry about it, however. Shifting forward, he threw a punch crackling with electricity at Shizuka's feet in an attempt to send her flying away from him!

He then turned and did something unprecedented.

...He grabbed Iris.

To the crowd, it would likely seem as if this wild and unorthodox plan had been pulled from thin air, but in reality it was the result of advanced mental communicaiton between Iris and Dragonite--or more accurate Iris begging for it. Raising the girl into the air, Dragonite abruptly tossed her at Rosalyn! Iris soared across the stadium, her flowing dress whipping about in the air. A big, goofy grin was on her face. She outstretched her arms, attempting to perform a literal flying tackle! "Hi Rosalyn~!"

p_1d20+2 (Iris' Flying Grapple! @ Rosalyn!)

Assuming she successfully plowed into Rosalyn, she would immediately pull her into a tight embrace. It almost felt affectionate, except for the part where she was doing her best to restrict Rosalyn's movement and keep her on the ground, preventing her from dodging a followup attack if she couldn't free herself. Meanwhile, Ashe the enormous crocoroid had her chance to dodge peas!

Unsurprisingly, the massive girl couldn't dodge to save her life in her current form. Though, perhaps to everyone's surprise she somehow managed to get herself out of the way of a single shot. Ashe!Bifrost's body began flashing white a couple of times before she abruptly lost her form, returning to her original megamerged form. "Aaah... Now what was that about me being just a girl?" Ashe asked, twisting one of her busters' in Shizuka's direction. It seemed she was a little sore about that remark, probably because it had caught her off guard and successfully intimidated and embarrassed her while she was trying to show off.

Thankfully, she had two guns and therefore did not have to choose between fulfilling her grudge over the comment and taking advantage of Iris' ... shenanigans. Also thankfully, her choice to turn herself into such an easy-to-hit target hadn't been without purpose. Ashe's body began to glow with an aura of heat as her body went into overdrive, utilizing some of the energy she'd absorbed from taking all those hits to power herself up! She then began applying covering fire almost immediately.

p_1d20+5 (Ashe's Covering Fire @ Both; Does 15% Damage and buffs Iris'/Dragonite's rolls by +2 for the turn)

However, when she took notice of Iris flying across the stadium she smiled, taking this as an opportunity to focus on her apparent rival. She discharged a reflect shot at Shizuka, the torrent of plasma errupting out of her laser shot like a six foot long laser with the advantage of the hitting with much more physical force than an actual laser. It seemed like a bit of a twitch shot, potentially missing Shizuka by a very large margin.

After doing there attacks, Rosalyn and Shizuka walked towards each other as Rosalyn smiled at Shizuka...Before the two turned back to see Dragonite...Who had recovered from the hard boiled drop Shizuka just did to him as the Sunflower continued to heal the two. Shizuka braced herself as Dragonite ran towards her and proceeded to try and punch her, Shizuka tried to dodge as Rosalyn and the Lil Sunflower looked on. "You can do It Shizuka!" Rosalyn said as Ashe threw something towards her...Iris.

p_1d20+4(And Rosalyn trying to dodge...Iris.)

Shizuka was punched as Rosalyn was grabbed by Iris...Something that made her freak out. "Let me go...Iris, let me go! Now!" Rosalyn said starting to panic as she struggled to be let go by Iris, soon the two girls were hit by Ashe's fire as Shizuka was sent to the otherside of the stage. "Ok...I don't think were going to win...But Rosalyn!" Shizuka said noticing Rosalyn was struggling against Iris, Shizuka quietly ran towards the two and tried to get Iris off of Rosalyn by burning her dress with her laser pointer.

"Time for you to let go of my friend now...Or else you'll regret It..."

"Hehe...I love giving off sunshine, I'm so cute, nothing bad wont happen to me!"

YtqHCF|Rp_1d20-2 (Iris' Laser Pointer Dodge)

Though Shizuka attempted to come to Rosalyn's rescue, the two girls were tightly pressed together and she would find it a tad too difficult to focus on Iris with the laser pointer, missing her attack. Obviously she should have just tried yelling at Iris like Rosalyn. It was clearly the superior strategy. Iris giggled as she clung to Rosalyn, wrestling the other underneath her in an effort to keep her down. She seemed to be having a lot of fun, but seemed to hesitate when Rosalyn began panicking and yelling at her.

It turned out that yelling at kids and telling them what to do was, in fact, not an entirely ineffective strategy. Iris abruptly released Rosalyn after being yelled at and pulled away, standing back up and wringing her hands anxiously. "Sorry..! Are you alright, Rosalyn?" Iris blurted out, ignoring Shizuka for the moment. Seeing as how Iris wasn't concentrating on the battle, neither was Dragonite.

Meanwhile, Ashe frowned in disapproval as she was decidedly ignored by Shizuka. She'd just have to change that. While her reflect shot had missed it's mark the first time around, Ashe was keeping an eye on it. The shot began boucing off the walls of the stadium, presenting a danger zone within one ought not to step. She just had to distract Shizuka and try to force her into the path of that bouncing reflect shot. Luckily, it seemed as if Rosalyn might not be an issue for her right now.

Taking aim, Ashe shot off two homing shots at Shizuka in an effort to 'encourage' her to move in a certain way. Nothing encouraged a girl to dance like a few plasma bullets, a statement far more awesome than the tactic really deserved.

p_1d20+5 (Ashe's Homing Shot #2 @ Shizuka; Does 9% Damage)

Meanwhile, Ashe's homing shot bounced towards Shizuka! It had dissipated somewhat since last time it came around, but it was still a powerful attack that threatened to take Shizuka off guard if she wasn't careful.

Rosalyn watched as Iris let her go and asked If she was ok...Rosalyn breathed heavily a few times...Before stopping. "Yeah...Now." Rosalyn said as she suddenly turned to Iris and tried to pierce her with her Cat'O Nine Swords, she looked almost better then before while doing so.

"Never...Ever, try to hug me."

VTRVDvX5p_1d20+3(Cat'onine Swords: If hit, Iris will get 8% damage.)

Meanwhile Shizuka tried to dodge the shots Ashe fired at her, she was hit by her reflect shot...But she just kept on walking on the same path, walking towards Rosalyn and Iris as she tried to dodge Ashe's next two shots.

Shizuka got hit by the shots and briefly fell...But quickly got up again and walked towards Iris and Rosalyn again, she took out her raygun...And shot It towards Ashe, Dragonite and Iris...Staying silent In the process as she kept on walking.
