The grass swayed and the waves flowed outside the Forest in the Pokemon Cove. There seemed to still be some Pokemon here but that was a bit worrying for their safety. Maybe they were just too wild to consider living in the Life Sphere which was an odd mentality but forcing them to was not right either way. Besides, the main concern right now was the Luma that was said to be in the forest. It seemed to be pretty peaceful right now but on this planet there was no telling what could go wrong at any moment.

Rosalina teleported into the Cove in a circle of light and floated to the ground. She then levitated over to the location Paula said she would be practicing her insturment playing. She mentally contacted the other two members to where the location of meeting would be. She was not very familiar with the Ridley person but something about them did not really help confidence. Peach however was a person she was very familiar with. Though it was rare for them to help each other together, except in the Prixie Kingdom where she was staying above at the time. She did invite her to several of the Mushroom Kingdom Events though so they had plenty of time to be around eachother. Rosalina finished these thoughts by waiting for the other three to come to the meeting place.

Ready?

GO!

Paula came into the forest  a lot earlier then Rosalina, sprouting a yellow sleeveless shirt with flowers on it and a long pink skirt. Aside from her pan she was also carrying her fiddle that she uses to practice..Very badly, although she dose think this. "Well Rosalina and everyone else will be here soon so i better finish this practice off with a simple Itoi symphony number 32." Paula thought as she begun playing her fiddle.


Unfortunately due to how bad she was playing the trees nearby slowly decayed at the harsh tones Paula played, as the leafs from the dieing trees fell around her the non infected animals in the area evacuated from Paulas music, some even tried to bash there heads on nuts and pieces of wood.

After finishing Paula noticed Rosalina has floated above her, she gasped and quickly stood up, putting her fiddle away. "Oh Rosalina, i haven't noticed you there..Uhh, did you hear my fiddle playing just now?" Paula said sounding shy at the last part, she soon looked Towards the fallen leafs that she caused to fall due to her bad fiddle playing.

"Ridley and Peach will be here soon, i wonder what they will be like? I heard Ridley was some space pirate and Peach was closely related to Mario..Do you know her Rosalina?"

[PolarStarQuote]

Ridley was flying through the skies, dawning his human form because he simply couldn't be asked to deal with the usual "Ah! Big thing with wings, kill it!" reaction to his usual form today. Despite the..troubles, this form presented. first of all, By god, How do human's allow themselves to wear this stuff?? Pants and Shirts were a concept ridley simply couldnt agree with in any medium, but, he had to put up with it for now.

Seriously, who thought pants were a good idea?? Ridley would have to tear them off so his legs have some room to actually m-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT NOISE?! IS SOMEONE SKINNING A CAT ALIVE?? Ridley stopped in mid-air from the sudden sound of some kind of screeching, as if some monster from the bowls of zebes has just crawled out after a thousand year slumber. Ridley's mouth flared with plasma, preparing to basically nuke the field completely, until realsing where it came from.

His partner's. He groaned, holding his head from the headache that sound had now given him, until, thank mercifull space god, she stopped upon Rosalina stepped in. Then again, i guess that is actually a case of 'space god'.

Ridley dive bombed down, stopping and landing in front of them both. Lets see...Blonde princess 1, blonde brincess 2...Wait, a blonde child...This was going to be a personal hell for Ridley, wasnt it? Ridley felt really out of place. Would of been better if there were another princess...a blonde one...maybe with a secret identity...like a ninja...

Ridley looked around, awaiting the last of the blondies to show up.

[Mari]

Princess Peach made her way across the wild grounds of the forest, delicately weaving her feet around the natural obstacles as they presented themselves with a level of expertise few dared to achieve in high heeled locomotion. She moved at a leisurely pace, slowly yet surely closing in on the meeting site the group had agreed upon. It would only be a matter of time before--...

"...Where am I?" Peach asked no one in particular. As she looked around she could spot the fleeting movements of some rather adorable creatures scurrying about, yet they weren't from her kingdom...

Perry did a double take on Peach's wandering gaze in response to her question. "Are we... lost?" he asked, slightly startled by this revelation. Princess Peach stopped, turning her head to gaze into Perry's eyes. The two of them shared a bewildered look just moments before the sound of a million chihuahuas howling in chorus greeted their ears.

Princess Peach shuddered and collapsed, floored by the ...impressive music. "I-I guess not..." she lamented rather pathetically in response.

"WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" Perry shouted in confusion as if he were trying to drown out the noise with his own.

...Eventually, the duo were granted a break from the painful sound and regained their bearings, decidedly investigating the source against Perry's better judgment.

"...Was that death metal?" Perry asked quietly in bewilderment, putting a rather deliberate emphasis on the word' death'. Princess Peach shook her head slightly but declined to correct Perry. She wasn't sure if he was being sarcastic or not. In just a few moments, they would likely discover the source and questions would begin answering themselves. As if on cue, Peach emerged onto the scene of a lovely lady, a lass and... an entirely inconspicuous and not at all remarkable man. ...Huh! Gotta love those unremarkable men. Good people. She offered the group a smile, her eyes filling with delight as her trailing gaze settled upon Rosalina. Any familiar sight was a pleasant one at this point.

"Well, hello there! I'm Peach, princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. This is my friend Perry. Perry the Parasol." she introduced, twirling her umbrella so that Perry's brightly smiling face could be seen.

"Howdy!"

[Coolshaymin]

As Rosalina approached she soon heard absolutely dreadful sound playing. She was worried it was a Luma screaming in sheer terror until she realized it did not really sound like that. Just as bad a sound, though not as emotionally scarring by any means. The sound almost sounded like it was trying to be music but failing extremely well. She then noticed it was Paula playing the dreadful music though she tried to hide it when she noticed her. Rosalina was not the one to kill a person's spirits so she may as well pretend she didn't. "No, I am afraid I missed it. I would like to hear it some time though," Rosalina answered. It was a lie without any doubt from herself but it was better than insulting someone for their lack of skill.

She then noticed the strange human come down next to them and not say anything. Must be the strong silent type of man. Still, his name seemed really familiar but she could not really tell why. There was a Space Pirate named Ridley but he was a giant space dragon so he was probably not this guy. Though there still seemed something off about him.

Then Peach came with some parasol that Rosalina did not recognize. It was capable of speech but Rosalina never recalled seeing it before. Regardless, Rosalina gave a small bow and greeted Peach. "Hello, Princess Peach. I am glad to see you are all right as well as your friend," Rosalina then floated upright and faced the forest. "We should get going since time is a big factor. The Luma is somewhere in that forest but I am not sure of their current condition," Rosalina said before floating off into the forest assuming they followed.

The foilage layer was pretty thick but plenty of sunlight beamed down onto the soft ground. It seemed peaceful though it also seemed they were being avoided. There was hardly any signs of Pokemon in the forest and what few Pokemon appeared ran off as soon as they noticed the group. It was kind of odd but probably nothing that important.

[Deleted]

"Oh, you want to hear it someday?" Paula said sounding a bit freaked out, but she quickly calmed herself. "Well, hopefully. Maybe when we even find the Luma." Paula said soon after while in her mind Paula was thinking. "Why did i said that!?..Now she will probably want to hear my music after the mission.." As Paula continued to wait for her partners one of them finally came, Ridley in a weird human suit. Paula watched as Ridley landed in front of the two girls trying to pass himself off as a human, Paula was not convinced of this badly made disguise. "Really..Are we not going to notice this?" Paula said in a deadpan voice before turning towards Rosalina.


Finally the last of the group appears, while she was expecting just one more person, Princess Peach to appear, Paula was surprised that Peach brought along another person with her, Perry a talking parasol. Never the less Paula introduced herself in a nice manner. "Hi, you must be Princess Peach, im Paula and i might say..You kind of look like me if i was older..Probably because i have a dress the same colours as yours, i like your parasol Perry here." Paula said looking up to the Parasol.


Paula turned back her attention to Rosalina when the Cosmic Princess announced they should begin the mission and started flying off into the woods. Paula nodded and floated just a few inches from the ground before flying towards Rosalina, following her within the woods. As she was flying Paula noticed the odd behaviour the Pocket Monsters were having, usually they would wave or even try to attack people who come into the woods, mostly if they were in tall grasses, but right now they seemed scared or shy.

"That's weird, i never seen Pocket Monsters display this weird behaviour before..Do you think its something in these woods?" Paula said to Rosalina.

[PolarStarQuote]

Well, look at who was the sass of the group. Ridley shot a dagger-like glare at paula's mention of his poor disguise, which...fair enough, he did look freakin' stupid in this get up. Yet, somehow it seemed to trick the other two, so, he at least knew where the intelligence was here. This kid. Paula, was it? Ridley liked this kid. Not afraid to point out the obvious oddities. "Well, atleast one of us is smart enough to notice the obvious." Ridley stated bluntly, crossed arms, as he looked toward the new face.


Yup. Personal Ridley Hell, three Nintendo girls with blonde hair and duper power's. Now we just need samus to come out and the set would be complete. But, that would be for later, as ridley was still plotting how exactly to find black shadow, and how exactly to twist him into a burning carcass. Ridley listened to rosalina's words, rolling his eyes. Ridley only took this mission for a few reason's.

Reason A: Ridley needed some kind of good representation to the world. There were still more than enough people in the life sphere that try to kill ridley on a regular basis for the murder of whatever relative they had, so, if he saved some kind of little creature, ridley would be able to have some reputation as a not-so bad guy. At the very least, be able to get a word in with some people.

And of course, Reason B, Getting some allies. With space pirates being very few, ridley needed all the help he could get.

Ridley walked along with the group into the forest, arms still crossed as he tried to envision what a luma looked like. Probably like a tiny puff ball. Yeah, sounds about right. "If you'd like, i can try to find this 'Luma' thing by flying over. The sooner to get this waste of time over with." Ridley suggested, being very pessimistic about this situation.

[Mari]

"Lucky me~" Peach replied cheerily in response to Rosalina's words. "I knew I had to come help when I heard the plight of your luma..." she went on to muse aloud, looking around almost searchingly. Someone important was missing from this merry gathering...

"You're not so bad yourself, Paula!~" Perry remarked light-heartedly, winking at the other in a rather goofy manner. Princess Peach seemed to eye Paula up and down for a moment. "...All you need is a Super Mushroom and people won't be able to tell the difference!" Peach remarked humorously, quietly imagining how Paula might look in a slightly more ornate dress. Perhaps she could commission her tailor for a gift...

Oh... Right.

Her train of thought had been unexpectedly derailed directly into sadness plaza, a disaster reflected only subtly in her features as she deflated slightly at the realization that her tailor was still missing. ...She wondered if anyone would offer to help her with her own kingdom's problems but immediately dismissed the thought. She couldn't possibly ask for help when everyone was so busy with their own problems! That would just be rude. Peach moved to follow the others, occasionally twirling Perry a bit so that he could get a better look at their surroundings. ...Hey, had that totally unremarkable human man said something about flying? Any implication that something was odd here was lost on her. Were there planes around here? She immediately gave the man the benefit of the doubt, as he seemed trustworthy enough.

At Paula's words, Perry spoke up. "...Do you think Bowser has anything to do with it?" the magical umbrella asked. Princess Peach and Perry just sort of shared a glance. Princess Peach had to question this, as it seemed like a rather wild guess on his part. This didn't really seem like Bowser's sort of game. ———Then again... Princess Peach just sort of shrugged in response. "I guess we'll find out soon enough." she murmured.

[Coolshaymin]

Rosalina was tempted to "forget" Paula's offer since she kind of did not want her Luma to hear that display but she did not show it with her usually hard to read face. Paula and Peach talked about how Paula looked similar to the Princess which seemed true come to think of it. They do dress and look sort of similar so it was not really unfounded. "I am glad you could take time to help me, Peach. I am sure you have your own problems as well," Rosalina stated.

Ridley offered to take flight and get an aerial view which made his ability to act human even worst. Rosalina was not going to question the space dragon in disguise's bad acting though. She would rather have him think what he will on their knowledge of his identity. It was a bit more funny that way. As for the matter of flying over, Rosalina looked at the dense leaves above the forest. "I doubt you will see much from up there. The leaves will probably heavily hinder your view. Otherwise I would of looked from the Comet Observatory," Rosalina replied.

Rosalina then looked at the Pokemon avoiding them and listened to Paula, Perry and Peach. "No, it is most likely not Bowser. He is probably too busy with his plans in the Life Sphere. Even then, they seem scared for a different reason... I can not tell what exactly though," Rosalina explained. "I find it weird there are no infected this far in though. The air almost feels... pure," Rosalina observed.

Rosalina heard a rustle in the bushes and quickly looked over to see something big jump out and thrust his head down onto the ground to make sharp rocks sprout up from underneath Rosalina, Peach and Paula, "Watch out!" Rosalina said jumping back as she noticed the attack coming.

"I suggest you four turn back before I am forced to strike again. This place is forbidden for you to enter. Now get lost or I will have to make ya!" The legendary declared, standing his ground.

As Paula kept floating alongside Rosalina she turned towards Ridley when he suggested flying over head to see if there was any signs of the Luma. "Yeah Rosalina has a point Ridley, besides i don't think your the kind of...Human..That could fly." Paula said as she turned towards Peach and Perry. "I don't think Bowser would be interested in Pocket Monsters, besides if he was he would of probably tried to capture them by now, he dose look like the kind of turtle..Kappa that would do things as fast as possible, also he's kind of busy dealing with stuff relating to those stupid gang wars...Seriously these Gangs Wars are a bit much don't you think? Why cant things just be resolved by a nice and simple meeting...Even if they are villains." Paula said to the group as she continued to look forward.

"But despite Bowser, i don't harbour any hard feelings for him, to him he's just doing what's best for him..And the Life Sphere kinda along with Eggman and that K Rool guy, there's still tons of nice people in the sphere that wouldn't go so far as to wanting sosomeone kicked out." Paula said as she stopped when the group reached there destination, before Paula could do anything else, something appeared and thrusted its head down in the ground. Rosalina told the group to watch out as Paula looked at the rocks about to sprout from underneath her.

"Yikes!"

"Argh!" Paula said as the rocks managed to throw her into the ground, when she looked up she saw the legendary, Paula quickly stood up wiping some dirt away from her dress before looking at the legendary. "Sorry..Were just looking for someone that may have entered the territory..But since you might not listen to us I'm afraid this is a start to a battle that you sadly caused thanks to your hostility." Paula said as she summoned a fire ball from her fingers and fired it towards the legendary.

"No hard feelings!"

Ridley looked over at the rustling bushes, tail slamming onto the ground, as a sudden pokemon jumped out, Ridley making no attempt to dodge the upcoming attack that stabbed him directly in his leg, causing ridley to look down, expression grimacing...before starting to chuckle. Fun thing about disguises, people dont tend to recognize you when you're well known for being a mass murdering psychopath.



Ridley's bright green blood splattered along the ground, delivering ridley a large gash, before pulling his leg off of the sharp rock, starting to slowly walk toward the legendary pokemon, tilting his head so paula's fireball could fly past him, as he simply came right face to face with him, yellow eyes narrowing as if ridley was staring directly into his soul. Ridley wanted to intimidate him a little, his massive size probably providing more leniency for such a task. "You suggest that we leave...? Well...I suggest that you piss off with your tail between your legs, Before i rip your intestines out by my teeth, and drink your blood through your skull, Overgrown Rat." Ridley said, not giving him all of two seconds to process what was just said. "You have till the count of three."


p_1d20 ( Dat Intimidation)


"One."



Ridley's mouth lit up, as number's went down, and fast, plasma flare's shining and coming from between his teeth.



"Two..."



Closer and closer now...



"Three." Ridley said, Before suddenly unleashing a quick Plasma Bolt point blank at the Legendary, followed by trying to blast him into oblivion with his Plasma Stream, to flash fry the legendary if his warning didn't already tell him to get the hell out of there way.

Princess Peach pouted at no one in particular as Paula rushed to Bowser's defense. "I know exactly how you feel, Paula. Unfortunately, it's hard to completely rule out any scheming on his part." she lamented with a helpless shrug of her shoulders. "I wouldn't put it past him to cause trouble just for the fun--" Peach began, only for a large stone spire to burst out of the ground mere inches from her.

qI5hGpuMp_1d20+1 (Damage)

Though Peach was taken completely off guard, the spire apparently didn't score a direct hit. She stumbled forward and upon regaining her composure turned her attention to her assailant. Upon inspecting Terrakion, her expression twisted into a frown.

"THAT ISN'T HOW YOU PRONOUNCE 'HELLO'!" Perry chastised from over her shoulder.

Peach watched calmly as the others charged into battle. "Well, I suppose this is why we can't just talk things out..." Peach lamented softly, reluctantly drawing Perry into a swinging stance. Such rude, villainous behavior could not be tolerated! Someone could get hurt! "Ready, Perry?" she asked. "Let's get 'im!" Perry remarked, his top beginning to glow with magical power. Peach would swing the magical umbrella, a blast of umbrella-shaped energy flinging flying off of perry towards Terrakion.

 "As if I would believe your words so easily. You can not fool me. I can tell the truth from here," Terrakion began as Paula started to fire a fireball at the stone sword.

ZMboPBdPp_1d20-1

The Fireball was weak and predictable, proving little challenge for the legendary. He simply stepped to the side as the attack flew past before looking to the strange human. He looked weird for a human and Terrakion could feel something he did not like about this guy. The Sword of Stone would not back down at the stranger's threats but that is not to say how he would affect his state of mind.

p_1d20-3

And the words truly do get to the legendary as the man began counting down. The sword of justice crouched lower and lower as the man counted down, ready to dodge whatever he had coming. The first shot was pretty predictable and should be easy to dodge.

p_1d20-1

And with masterful ease he evaded the ball of plasma but that was not the end as a stream of plasma was aimed at him.

p_1d20-1

And the legendary barely dodged the flame thrower esque breath of plasma. He was not nearly fast enough to ignore the heat of it though but it did not matter that much. Getting out of a 4 on one battle was never going to be a flawless victory. Then he noticed the parasol's voice, mocking him for his greeting when they were the invaders. The sword looked to the princess, honestly not expecting much before noticing a blast of energy!

p_1d20-1

The attack was so ridiculously shaped it caught the sword off guard and got hit back quite a bit from the direct hit. He shook his head a bit from the ludicrous attack and was not sure what to make of it. Still, the strange human was his primary target right now. He would deal with the other three afterwards.

Rosalina watched as everyone else failed to evade the surprise attack. It was a pretty powerful attack though so she could not blame them entirely. Still, she wished they could of solved this without conflict but it looks like there is probably little choice now. All chances of a diplomatic approach were probably ruined by the first attack from Paula. Oh well, there was not much to be done now. Rosalina showed a star bit over his shoulder and shot it past him to distract him before jumping forward and flipping with her dress pointed at him to create a swish of galaxies.

Terrakion looked at the cursor on his shoulder in confusion for a second and watched some kind of gummy fly past. He was confused for a second before he noticed the light blue princess in front of him to which he hopped to the side, only a small bit of the galaxy hitting his shoulder. Deciding they were done, Terrakion glared at the space dragon in disguise and ran at him. The Pocket Monster Legendary then attacked the space dragon with a powerful and furious series of blows that were sure to devestate, however at the cost of their great power, he left himself heavily vulnerable to counter attacks.

Paula sighed in dismay as the fireball she cast only made the Terrakion dodge and continue his attack on the four. "Well it was rather weak." Paula thought to herself as the Terrakion soon focused his attacks on Ridley which by the looks of it he to seems to think that Ridley was a human, Paula thought that Ridleys disguise was getting a bit silly as the Space Pirate and Pocket Monster began fighting..Rather viciously. "Wow..This mission got dark really fast." Paula said to Peach, Rosalina and Perry.

Soon after Ridley and Terrakion finished there attacks on each other, Paula noticed that Terrakion has left his body exposed, which gave Paula a chance to deal close damage to it. Quietly Paula walked closer to Terrakion and..When the time is right slammed her pan into his ribcage.


"Life is full of surprises."

First ram of the close combat was avoided with excellent gusto, using a good timed barrel roll to get away from the legendaries body, landing behind him and stepping a few ways back.

And second time was same as the first, ridley bunny hopping back from the continued ramming, wings flapping hard to pull him back away from him. Jeepers Creepers.

And a complete close combat avoidance, ridley finishing his dodging streak by ducking under Terrakion', reading his claws as paula jumped in with her pan attack, throwing ridley off a little. He hated seeing other's jump into his combat time, but, with the nature of this mission, he would have to settle with waiting a little. With paula's attack over with, ridley grabbed terrakion by his throat, using his talon's to stab him through his rough skin.

Ridley proceeded to lift Terakion up into the air, like a ragdoll, before slamming him back into the ground, his mlouth glowing in plasma energy, before blasting him point blank in a plasma stream.
