Day Two-Three / March 28th-29th

[Emmet, though not especially prepared for combat, was willing to help as much as he could. With the threat of airships, he was able to use Eelektross most effectively, striking the closest ships with powerful Thunderbolts and defending himself from soldiers with Thunder Wave. It's clear that he has no intention of killing anybody, or is extremely hesitant or struggling with the concept of murder.]

Day Four-Six / March 30th-April 1st

[During the release of the droids, Emmet's been doing his best to run out of the way and keep himself alive. He'll help where he can, but most of what he can do is contribute with Galvantula's Electroweb to tangle up oncoming soldiers or droids in sticky, electrified web. Especially when the orders to restrain enemies comes through, taking advantage of his Pokémon's ability to work.

But he's not ready, mentally or emotionally, to handle this. Though ungraceful, the panic sets in, and he is avoiding a fight as best as he can. He won't be participating in reclamation, simply trying to survive.]

day 4

[acuity]

[ simply trying to keep self alive? guess who's trying to do the same thing, nearly bunping into Emmet's back on the field, empoleon and rapidash in front of her blazing fire-and-ice attacks at the army. Platina flinches, does a double-take and then recognizes him with dawning realization. ]

Mr. Emmet!

[infinitegrin]

Miss Platina!

[Emmet whirls around, putting a hand on her shoulder as if to get a firmer grasp of her presence. His voice sounds panicked as he shouts over the sounds of battle,]

Are you fighting??

[acuity]

Y-yes! I... I've gotten separated from my friends, and...

[ sticking close to her team, but they were taking damage and it was all she could do to try to keep safe by herself. ]

[infinitegrin]

Then stay with me! I'm working my way out of here.

[He already has Galvantula out, but he lets out Archeops to assist. He keeps his hold on Platina's shoulder, going back to looking for the escape route.]

[acuity]

There's a way out? Let me help clear it!

[ searching over the chaos, her team trying their best to clear the space around them in a flurry of fire and ice attacks. ]

Day 2

[mischiefbreeder]

[Gold has been taking it to the skies for his fights, flying around on Togetaro and making decisive strikes on the ships to try and bring them down.

He comes onto land next to Emmet to make a proposition.]

Hey, what say we deliver up a little combination attack, you and me?

[infinitegrin]

[Surprising! But you said the magic words, Gold.]

A combination attack?

[mischiefbreeder]

Have your Pokémon hop on Togetaro's back! He'll take care of the rest! [Gold hops of Togetaro, making room for his Pokémon.]

day four or five?

[cilantro]

[In comparison to Day 1, Cilan's nerves are pretty notably frayed by now too. He had kind of lost track of the other as well as other friends once or twice and a few of his strategies have started lacking in finesse, but gosh darn it, he's trying. Once he spots Emmet (and after knocking aside a couple of droids with a few Bullet Seeds here and there), Cilan will approach him, a little out of breath. We may have battled a legendary once before, but we didn't do this much serious fighting in the span of days, so he's exhausted and it takes him a second to speak a little more clearly.]

Are you--are you alright, Emmet? [maybe not mentally or emotionally, but we mean physically in the "avoiding injuries/not seriously hurt" kind of "alright" at the moment]

[infinitegrin]

I'm not hurt, I'm fine.

[Also a bit of a lie, since there are some bloody splotches on that stark white uniform he wears. At the same point in time, he isn't struggling to stand or move.]

Stay close!

[cilantro]

[That's...good, maybe. Emmet physically appears to be okay at least and that's kind of a relief. As for Cilan, his clothing has definitely seen better days too judging by some tears here and there, but otherwise he seems physically "okay" for the most part too, if not a little exhausted from all the running and fighting. (Then again, who isn't by now)

Though now he's kind of staring at those splotches and his mind wanders vaguely to somewhat morbid places--is that Emmet's blood or someone else's? Either way it's unsettling and makes him feel vaguely ill, which probably shows on his face as it almost takes a second before he even registers the next thing Emmet said and nods.]

Ah--yeah, got it... [Right, we can do that. Staying close, focus again on what's going on here, trying not to die...yeah.]

day 4

[tsuntrader]

[Electroweb is a pretty good way to keep the droids and soldiers at bay... For a short amount of time. The tangled, electrified mess is the first thing he sees, not Emmet. And that's not good enough. They're still alive; those droids are still active.

Time to think fast.]

Feraligatr!

[That's all he says; that's all he needs to say. Feraligatr soaks the group of droids and soldiers with water- not too much in order to conserve energy, but more than enough to take advantage of the fact that water conducts electricity.

The droids are fried. Most of the soldiers let out loud and echoing cries of anguish. A few of them are electrocuted so badly that the only reaction they have before falling unconscious (at best) is a shocked expression that remains locked on their faces.

What's up, Emmet.]

[infinitegrin]

[His trauma levels are what's up, Silver.

Emmet looks stunned, the expressions of the electrified soldiers and the smell of the burning hair and skin and the sound of their voices just makes the subway boss lock up. He sees Silver, but it doesn't process. Galvantula does her best in spinning her electroweb and defending her trainer, but she only has so much attention span.]

[tsuntrader]

[...Ingo handled it poorly, but Emmet's handling it even worse than Ingo...]

Hey, snap out of it. Now's a bad time.
