The CORONET Team

Ick watches the absol closely, wondering if this simple act could be enough. Though, it did not seem to have affected Glass... Oh well Ick, you can do much more, yes. She will learn to trust you soon. He thought optimistically to himself.

"Thanks for the help. Shall we continue?"
At least she knows! She knows you helped Ickbarr... but no, no, you must do more than help... you must save her Ick! yes! she will trust you then!! Ickbarr nods and jumps back onto Glass's back, a huge, joyful smile upon his face.

"Walk on my dear~" He confirms.

The question had been gnawing in his mind, waiting to be spoken. He needed, no HAD to know. After a long pause, he speaks again, asking a simple question: "Glass... How much do you love me?" His smile is nearly gone, replaced by a row of teeth not smiling, nor frowning. He holds onto the absol's back tighter with his claws as worry that threatens to turn to anger builds up inside him.

((again, tell me if i need to edit~))

Glass stiffened at Ickbarr's question, missing a step, she stumbled a bit, but quickly regained her pace. Remembering what happend to the Graveler, Glass stopped, looking back at Ickbarr. She had to pick her words carefully. "I love you as much as an Umbreon loves the moon. No, I love you as much as a mother loves it's child." Glass said, making sure she said her words in a nice manner. It was the perfect lie, nearly impossible to detect. Glass knew she was vunerable with how close Ickbarr was, and she just hoped that her answer was enough to satisfy him.

"I love you as much as an Umbreon loves the moon. No, I love you as much as a mother loves it's child."

Not more than anything!? He thinks frantically before turning her words around in his mind for a little. Ick, a mother love's her child more than anything, doesn't she? yes, yes she does... He concludes, while muttering to himself: "More than anything." Temporarily free of the question of her love, his mouth slowly twitches back to its smile and he relaxes. Now giggling, happily to himself, he goes back to carefully watching their surroundings.

Glass continued her walk, relief flooding over her like a flash flood in the rain season. Good. That gets things settled for now. I just hope he know that love and trust are two totally different things. Glass thought, stopping at the bottom of the stairway. "Hey Ick, do you think we should continue up to Spear Pillar, or stay on this level for a bit? I don't sense any other undead, and there seems to be a plentiful supply of food." Glass said, waiting for Ickbarr's answer. If Ick wanted to continue, Glass wouldn't complain. She needed a change in scenery, but on the other hand, she'd never been up to Spear Pillar before, she only knew the way, and she didn't want to walk into an undead ambush.

He tried not to show it, but after being awake for more than 30 hours, he was starting to feel a bit tired. The previous fight had only made him more aware of that fact, and hunger was beginning to gnaw at his stomach again.That zubat from before was not enough to satisfy his hunger completely...
"We could stop if you wish my dear~ I know I will be needing more teeth soon to help me fight the monsters. hehehe~."Ick spoke as he scanned the room again. "...Though this time, I will need something with more teeth than one zubat." He finishes, imagining a full and happy belly. This thought leads him to giggle a bit more to himself.

Glass stopped herself from rolling her eyes. "Okay then, I guess we should stop here for a bit. I'll see if I can find us some food." Glass said, stifling a yawn. She was getting pretty tired. Scanning the darkness around them, Glass picked up the eye shine of a few living pokemon, and she noted those spots. Charging a razor wind, Glass went with her preferred hunting tactic, throwing the razor wind in a straight line, startling the few pokemon nearby. Glass's eyes locked onto a golbat. Charging up another razor wind, she jumped at it, using Bite on it's wing, much like she did to the zubat.

Forcing the golbat to land, Glass jumped back, throwing the razor wind at it, knocking it to the ground. Glass then charged up her future sight, ripping into the golbat's wing with er Bite attack, before liquifying it's brain with the super effective psychic type attack. Cutting the skin away from the skull, she put that aside for Ickbarr, before charging up another razor wind, so she could find any more prey.

Ickbarr briefly watched Glass run off to hunt before turning sinisterly to the room-like space around him. Being in his homeland had its perks. Quietly, but excitedly, he begins to search the cave walls. He knew where and how to find a safe spot to sleep without having to go to the trouble of digging one out of the rock. Ickbarr goes around the walls twice before stopping, the extreme frustration he is feeling not appearing on his face. Ick is about to begin finding a spot to dig when he hears the scraping of stone. Quickly, he ducks behind a rock and listens to a small, questioning murmur, followed by a reassuring whisper.

Bingo

His frustration gone, Ick carefully peers out from behind the rock. A small, thin, raggedy gabite is pushing a rock in front of an already hard to spot den entrance. It looks around before heading away from its home. Ick sees his chance and pushes the rock out of the way before ducking into the formerly hidden den. Good, He thinks, taking in the dens size and strength. Glass will fit in here, yes, the entrance is a little small, but I"m sure she can squeeze through. At his last thought, Ick giggled loudly to himself as the image of an absol trying to wiggle into a small hole came to his mind, it's rear end flailing comically. As he laughed, he heard a small rustling ahead and a small Gible which seemed to be a very young child appear in front of him. Ick instantly leaps at it, laughing, with a punishment attack.

After five minutes, the uninfected gible lay dead, skull broken open just in case. It's blood decorated the floor and walls with red fans. It's jaws were covered in hollows where it's teeth used to be.

Ick sat by the body, hungrily eating its teeth, His eyes gleaming evilly in the darkness.

Glass was just about to head back when she heard something coming up from behind her. Spinning around, Glass found herself face to face with a hungry gabite. "Well shit." Glass said, backing up a bit, the white glow from the razor wind gave the gabite a sinister look. The gabite jumped at Glass, and she let the razor wind fly into it's face. Screeching, the gabite fell back, and Glass took that moment to grab the golbat skull and flee. "Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!" She said, running towards where she left Ick. Skidding to a halt, she looked around. "Fuck! Ickbarr! where the hell are you?! I got a hungry gabite after me, and I ain't about to become lunch!" She called, whirling around to face to oncoming gabite, another razor wind charging. Where the hell was that sableye when you needed backup?

"Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!"

The absols words echoed slightly through the cave and to Icks keen ears. He exits the den, more blood upon his claws and around his mouth. The teeth he had not yet eaten from the child laying dead in the den were stored inside one of his sleeves with his human tooth. He could get to them later, he still had an absol to protect.

"Fuck! Ickbarr! where the hell are you?! I got a hungry gabite after me, and I ain't about to become lunch!"

Ick races past Glass and into the gabite using a sucker punch attack. He laughs as his claws rake against the gabites stomach and side, leaving long, deep wounds glistening with blood. As he attacks, he answers Glass happily:

"My dear Glass~ hehe-I'm always here- hehehehahahha!! Just call!! hahahhaaaha!!!"

Ick was truly enjoying himself. He had someone to feed him, things to kill, and it was all so much fun!!!

"My dear Glass~ hehe-I'm always here- hehehehahahha!! Just call!! hahahhaaaha!!!"

Fucking. Hell. Ickbarr was one fucked up sableye, but hey, who cares? He was saving her tail wasn't he? But for how long? She thought grimly, letting the razor wind fly at the gabite. The white wind scythe flew over Ickbarr's head and into the gabite's face, nearly in the exact spot the last one went. Serves you right. Glass thought, before realizing that this wasn't an undead. How did she know? Blood was coming from the wounds that she and Ickbarr has inflicted. Uninfected blood. Well shit. We pissed this living off. She thought, dodging a Slash attack and counter attacking by using Quick Attack.

Ick spins and attacks the gabite from behind using shadow claw. The attack hits its back, leaving more deep wounds. The gabite retaliates with a dragon breath attack. However, Ick dodges quickly before coming back in with the move sucker punch, elbowing it in the stomach and digging the spines on his arm into the already existing wound. The cave pokemon was weakening, but was still determined to live.

Glass watched at Ickbarr attacked from behind, and making the gabite spin, showing deep wounds along it's back. Perfect. Glass thought, leaping at the gabite from behind using Quick Attack. Digging her head scythe into it's back, blood spurted from the already deep wound, getting Glass in the face. Thankfully none got into her eyes. "Fuck! That's disgusting!" Glass growled, ignoring the gabite's blood as it dripped down her face. jumping up into the air, Glass threw a razor wind at the gabite as it whirled around to face her. The white wind scythe hit the ground in front of it, sending up a dust cloud. Using the dust as cover, Glass landed on the gabite's back, digging her claws into it's back, determined not to let go. "Yeee Ha! Giddy Up ya fucking pony!" Glass said, exhausting the gabite as it tried to buck her off.

Ick bounced excitedly in place once glass was atop the bucking gabite. He claps his claws together, laughing and yells encouragements to her.

" HAHAHHAA!! Don't let go Glass!! you're doing great- hehehahha! Hold on!!! She's tiring!!! hehahaha!" He dances around the gabite as it struggles, now using sucker punch and shadow claw repeatedly once he can hit it without getting Glass. It isn't long before it falls to the ground, and Ickbarr happily rushes over to it's head and sits charging a shadow claw attack.
"Goodbye~" He giggles, bringing it down upon the gabites skull, killing it permanently.

He licks a few drops of blood that had splattered on his face as he forces the dead beasts jaws open and begins digging the teeth out.
"Glass dear," He speaks, hands still working at the Gabites teeth. "I got us a nice den to sleep in while you were out~"

((tell me if i need to change anything~ Again, I had Ick strike the last blow because of his promise to protect her. But if you want me to change anything i will :3))
((also: I'm real sorry for the late reply >.<))

Glass was somewhat releived when Ickbarr finished the gabite off, she didn't think she'd be able to hold on any longer. She nearly fell asleep right then and thre when Ickbarr mentioned he'd found a cave to sleep in. "Good. I'm so fucking tired, I could fall asleep on the stone and I wouldn't give a shit." She said. She knew she swore a lot more when she was tired, but she really didn't care. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she remembered the gabite's blood was still all over her face. Well, that's gonna become fucking annoying... She thought, stifling a yawn. Turning back to Ickbarr, she sighed. "All right Ick, where's this cave? Lead the way." Glass said, fightinging the urge to fall asleep then and there.

"All right Ick, where's this cave? Lead the way."

Ickbarr smile widens as he finishes harvesting the dragon types teeth and hops up, pointing at the entrance of the gabite's den.
"Hehehhe- Over there my dear~ I took care of the residence, and I guess you could say that i decorated a bit!" Ick finishes his statement with a burst of laughter, his weariness temporarily forgotten. He begins to walk towards the den, then stops outside and gestures to Glass that she should go in first. The entrance to the home looked normal enough, but the smell of blood came from it from the gible that lay inside, toothless and dead.
"You first dear~"

Oh great. Just fucking great. "So we're going to be sleeping in the blood of a baby gible? Fucking great." Glass said, rather sarcastically. jumping through the small hole, Glass slid on the blood soaked ground, but quickly regained her balance. Well, could be worse. Could be my blood... She thought, stepping out of the pool of blood. Sighing, she sat on the bare rock, waiting for Ickbarr to come in. At least she'll be able to get a proper rest.

Ick slips inside, then drags the heavy rock outside halfway over the entrance.
"I could drag her outside if you wish. I don't know what absols eat, so I left her there." He speaks with only a hint of his former excitement, the combination of the battle and his weariness from before starting to weigh him down. Though he is tired, his usual grin stays upon his face, and his white eyes, though slightly dimmer, still shine their sinister light in the darkness.

Glass sighed. Of course Ickbarr would keep it here, but the smell could attract the undead. "It's probably best to leave it near the entrance, but not outside in case it attracts undead." She said, shaking her head to clear the fog that shrouded her thoughts. She needed sleep, and soon. Fuck... So tired... She thought, stopping herself from falling. Fatigue was getting to her, and she was on the brink of collapsing right then and there.

"It's probably best to leave it near the entrance, but not outside in case it attracts undead."

Ick was too tired to really think about her words, he just followed them. He drags the body over by the entrance before pulling the rock over it completely, sealing it off. With the promise of sleep, Ickbarr cheers up a bit, a soft giggle in his speech now.
"hehe- Done~ now you can rest peacefully dear."
He now moves back to Glass, hoping to use her as a pillow because of her soft fur.

Glass sighed as Ickbarr put the dead gible by the entrance as she'd asked. Lying down on the cold ground - mainly because the would have fallen otherwise - Glass sighed. "May as well try to get some sleep eh Ick?" She said, fighting a yawn. Sleeping was dangerous down on the ground. At least the cave was sealed off. I would of liked to sleep on a ledge... Oh well... So... Fucking... Tired... She thought, laying her head down and succumbing to the wonderful realm of sleep. Or maybe even nightmares, because they were always more fun than dreams.

Glass opened her eyes to a field of grass, there were Absols everywhere, all were glaring at her. "You abandoned us... You deserted us... Now you'll pay..." Glass growled. "I didn't fucking abandon you! I left because I wanted to live! You all were too fucking stupid to hear my warning! You fucking banished me!" "Don't be so sure Glass, we're going to get you, and our revenge will finally be achieved..." Glass lunged at the speaking absol, but the ground turned to a black pit, unable to stop, Glass fell into darkness, tumbling over and over and over. "Is this it? Haha, I should hope not. Some fucking revenge!" She said, awaiting the thud of when she hit the ground. "Well come fucking get me... Come and fucking get me..."

((OOC: Everything in italics is a dream You cannot hear the conversations. I just wanted not to make a crappy one paragraph post >.<))

Seeing Glass lie down and fall asleep, Ickbarr walks over and flops down next to her. He snuggles into her side, facing the cave entrance and feeling himself drift off into sleep. The small warm cave reminds him of his family, two unworthy pokemon. His mother showed him that he was unworthy too though when she couldn't handle the second life and faded. His father fell easily, being unable to fight his mother. Their blood was his blood, unworthy blood. "You're not worthy" He murmurs bitterly to himself thinking of the undead that roam outside this safe place His thoughts steadily decline into hate filled things before he falls asleep.

His dreams were a direct result of his thoughts. In them he saw him killing those he sees as unworthy, then himself over and over. In real life he squirms around a bit in his sleep, claws scraping against the stone ground.

Unknown to the sleeping absol, Glass's white forehead orb began to glow slightly, casting a faint white light over the sleeping absol and Sableye.

Darkness enveloped Glass as she fell, deeper and deeper into whatever it was she was falling into. However, instead of ground, Glass hit a pool of water. What should of killed her in reality instead trapped her. Unable to jet back to the surface, Glass growled. The surface was now ice. she knew what this meant. She was going to drown. "Oh fuck no. FUCK NO. YOU FUCKING BITCHES CANNOT KEEP ME UNDER!" she yelled, wasting most of her air. Realizing her mistake too late, she growled, shooting upwards, the force of impact shatter in the ice, just as her vision started to go black. She burst out of the ice, and landed, but she had taken in too much water. slumping to the ground, her breathing got slower... and slower... And finally...

Glass awoke with a start. "Fuck." She whispered, trying to calm her rapid breathing. Now was not the time to get visions. She hoped that wasn't a vision. Then she noticed the light of her forehead orb as it faded back to it's normal color. "Oh fucking hell." She whispered, growling. That wasn't good.

"Hardly." Glass muttered, answering Ickbarr's question. She sighed. If that really was a vision she saw, that meant her days were numbered. "Hey Ick, ya think we can move off yet? I may not have gotten that much sleep, but it was still enough." She said, wide awake now that she had gotten a vision. Well, there goes my chances of sleep. She thought stretching.
