freezetheskies--can't believe this...where's that map...
[Evening, Johto. It's about sunset as the video comes on, though it's pretty much by total accident. The owner of this gear, one obviously rumpled and tired Toushiro Hitsugaya, doesn't even notice the thing is recording as he tries to get the map from his bag. Of course, it's useless in the back alleys of Goldenrod, which is where he appears to, and judging from the expression on the face of his Golduck standing behind him, they're lost.
Yep. His sense of direction in a town this large that he's never been to, is absolute crap and he knows it if the expression on his face says anything about that.]
We'll have to turn back. Come on.
[He turns to leave the alleyway and retrace their steps, Golduck right behind him and the flashes of orange fur at his ankle showing his Growlithe is right at his side. But then the puppy stops suddenly, turning to the entrance of another alleyway that the sun is just shining through, growls, and darts into it before her trainer can grab her.]
Hey---tch.
[He chases after his Growlithe, only to stop when he gets halfway to her and appears to see something from the corner of his eye. He turns his head, but before either he or anyone watching can see what caught his attention, a cream streak darts out from the shadows and his Growlithe starts barking again.
Of course, it's too late to do anything about that, and Hitsugaya loses his footing as the streak, obviously some kind of quadrupedal pokémon, lashes out at his face. The gear goes flying from his hand and skitters across the ground, turning off upon impact with something but not before there's a tremendous crash, the sound of breaking glass, and a surprised cry from the young man in the alley. Seems trouble follows him wherever he goes.]

Date: 2011-09-08 10:40 pm (UTC)[Meanwhile, Stitch is still hiding in the safety of the shadow, but keeping an eye out for the Golduck's trainer. He might have something of use on him, after all.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-09 05:01 am (UTC)An eye out for a trainer who's shorter than most and also sticking to the darkness? Not the best idea. However, Stitch will most likely hear him as he runs across a large puddle left over from Golduck's Water Gunning as he heads for the mouth of the alleyway. Whether or not he's got anything of use on him is still up in the air, however.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-10 11:00 am (UTC)[There's a telltale red flash, followed by a strange, etheral sound, and the next moment a Mismagius is darting towards Hitsugaya with Stitch in tow. Hear that cackling laughter? They're not gonna let him get away easily.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-11 04:04 am (UTC)While an easy escape would have been nice, Hitsugaya never expected it to work out that way. There's a reason he's got his Growlithe in his arms as he skids to a stop, and one word has her spitting embers all around. It's not likely to hit Stitch or his Mismagius, but that wasn't the idea. It's easier to dodge an attack when you can actually see it coming, even if it's in dim firelight and shadows, right?]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-13 12:54 am (UTC)[Meanwhile, the Mismagius emerges out of the fire, having successfully located the trainer and his Growlithe, and with eyes and mouth open wide she fires a Confuse Ray.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-13 05:10 am (UTC)Of course, this also has the ill-effect of putting out the fires that Growlithe just got going, and with the puppy confused and trainer disoriented from the Confuse Ray, this might not be the best thing. If Stitch wants to get at Hitsugaya's stuff, now's his chance. Not that there's actually much in that bag; he hasn't stocked up on supplies lately and has nothing of value in there.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-13 10:45 am (UTC)Stitch snatches the bag with way more force than necessary, shoving Hitsugaya aside to make matters more difficult for him, then turns tail to retrieve his nearly-knocked out and clearly disoriented Seviper.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-13 10:59 am (UTC)Sorry, Stitch, but there is a hissing Golduck now launching a good amount of water at you in an attempt to knock you down. Will it work? Hard to say; it's hard to see and there isn't much pressure behind all that wet stuff, but the ground is still pretty slippery. If it hits, it might be enough...maybe. If his trainer can get up and get his bag back by then, that is. Not that it's going so well, that idea. Wet floors and disorientation don't mix, after all.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-15 07:09 am (UTC)Stitch's literally sweeped of his feet, the water already covering the ground not helping in the least. He slips and falls and drops the bag, and it's pushed even farther away by the torrent of water. He's brought quite a bit over the ground by the water as well, trying and failing to get up.
The battle will be over in fifteen minutes if those affected by the Perish Song will remain out, and the Mismagius knows this. This does not stop her from angrily rushing headfirst at the Golduck, charging up a Shadow Ball.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-15 08:14 am (UTC)The Growlithe puppy, on the other hand, has recovered enough of her wits to charge at Stitch in defense of her trainer. It seems for a moment that she's going to bite him, but instead she bolts past and grabs HItsugaya's bag, darting back to her trainer before the confusion can kick in again Not that she manages, what with it sending her tumbling head over paws and knocking the boy back down from where he'd been on his hands on knees, trying to shake off his own confusion. But, like Stitch, he's still trying to get up so they can get out of here. He seems to be having better luck, too, what with having a wall behind him for when the disorientation finally wears off.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-18 11:19 pm (UTC)[All the while, Stitch's been struggling to get up, but the near constant flow of water makes it hard, leaving him slipping every now and then. He's half-way, on his knees and keeping an eye out for the bag, but getting on his feet seems to be a more difficult task than he ever could have imagined. When the Growlithe darts past, Stitch throws himself at her, grabbing for the bag and succeeding in latching his hard, claw-like nails and tearing up a big hole in it.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-19 06:13 am (UTC)Meanwhile, through the big hole in the cloth, everything in the bag spills out. There's really nothing of value in there; half full bottles of soap, the trainer's manual, an empty bento box, a couple potions, very little money, and hardly enough of anything else to make up for all this trouble. Stitch just had to jump one of the most unsupplied trainers in the area tonight, and unless he wants a four sizes too small for him Dragon Tamer outfit, well, he's outta luck in that respect.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-21 10:42 pm (UTC)[Stitch, on the other hand, is up on his feet by now, holding one hand against the wall to steady himself. He's disappointed, not to mention angry at this pathetic loot and it won't even nearly cover what he had to go through to get it. But he won't leave empty handed. Confident in that he won't slip, he sets off for the various items scattered across the ground, zeroing in on the money and the potions]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-23 04:44 am (UTC)Not that it's worth it, really; 150P isn't going to buy him much, and it's unlikely those potions will make up for the damage done to his team. Not the most successful haul he's had, that's for sure.]
[action] so it's alright that Stitch steals the stuff?
Date: 2011-09-26 11:47 pm (UTC)[Stitch snatches the money and the potions off of the ground, stuffing whatever fits into his pocket. Then, infuriated beyond all reason (because why would you even fight that hard for something so useless?) Stitch forcefully kicks the remaining items in Hitsugaya's direction.]
[action]perfectly fine~ and can I just say that this has been awesome? :3
Date: 2011-09-27 02:57 am (UTC)It's more the principle of the thing that had him fighting so hard, really. He's a scrappy one, though once he realizes what Stitch has just stuffed into his pockets, all he does is give the other trainer a very icy glare. That stuff isn't worth a fight, and he's got a team to pull together and get out of this alleyway before something else happens. No sense in picking a bigger fight that he's sure to lose. Especially with an opponent that furious.]
[action] aa yes I've enjoyed this immensely xD
Date: 2011-09-28 11:41 pm (UTC)[Stitch is tempted to send out Thing, his Jumpluff, just to finish them off and pour salt in the wounds. But he doesn't, instead spitting and swearing furiously, both in english and his own alien tongue. He waves his fists around, baring his way-sharper-than-average teeth in a way to look intimidating, but still standing at a safe distance from the other.]
Gaba ika tasoopa, toobaga!
[action] glad to hear it~ x3
Date: 2011-09-29 05:02 am (UTC)Are you quite done? You have what you came for, so I suggest you leave.
[It's probably not the best idea to antagonize this guy even if he's keeping his distance, but it's been a very long day, and watching someone else throw a tantrum never ends well for a boy with a fuse even shorter than he is.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-29 11:16 pm (UTC)You, choota...
[He doesn't finish and instead just snorts, yells something else in Tantalog, most likely something obscene, before he turns tail and runs, turning a corner and soon disappearing in the dark.]
