Event Six.

[awashmods]

If you see this hairy creature Your first choice should always be to run Otherwise you had better hope You have silver bullets in a gun.

he full moon hangs brightly over the Town, hovering so low that it almost feels as though you could reach out and touch it. It should be comforting. But as the howl of wolves fills the air, it's anything but. There are werewolves on the prowl, and their target is very clear -- the Town won't be able to last without your help. Welcome to Awash's sixth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well.

[What can he say? He's stubborn.

But he is feeling just how much this has all taken out of him. Sleepless nights, hours on his feet, energy shared between him and his team draining with every battle...

Thankfully Lucario was more than capable of giving them a much needed berth from the enemies, and to the suggestion that they get out of there he nods in agreement.]

If you know somewhere to go...

[He's too far from his own house to even suggest it right then.]

[With sharp eyes, Izuku scans their surroundings. Even though his companion just called out another friend to help fight, Izuku can tell they're all in severe need of a safe place to retreat to temporarily. He looks up, getting an idea just then.]

How do you feel about the rooftop? It'll give us a good vantage point and the werewolves can't reach us that easily if we're up there.

[costaliris]

That would be fine.

[Lucario even nods in agreement. Izuku isn't the only one noticing just how worn down Gladion is.

The blast had chased away their current enemies, but howls and the distant sounds of fighting can still be heard throughout the town. The night was far from over...]

Let's go.

That roof over there looks safe enough.

Need a lift up? [Lucario looks strong, but Izuku figures that he should ask anyway, just in case.]

[costaliris]

[Strong, yes, but even Lucario has been through the ringer today. Gladion glances at his partner but gets a 'go ahead' motion from him.]

Sure...

[This night sure is a whole lot of relying on other people.]

[inheritance]

Okay. [Thankfully, they don't run into any more trouble as they head over toward the building that Izuku had pointed out. It would've been terrible luck if they had!

Izuku crouches slightly, back facing Gladion.]

Climb on! And make sure you hold on tight.

[The last thing he wants to do is drop him!]

[costaliris]

[... he would have prefered dealing with Lucario.

A feeling the Pokemon picks up and gives him a Look, enough to urge him in to complying with Izuku without complaint.

He'll just do his best to not think about how awkward this is as he climbs on and holds tight.]

Okay...

[inheritance]

Here goes. [And off they go! Quirk activated, Izuku sparks with energy as he darts toward the building and then takes a huge leap. They land gently enough, and Izuku takes a moment to get steady footing before letting Gladion slip off.]

Alright, I think we should be okay up here for now. Do you want to check on the rest of your.... [Izuku pauses, not sure what to call the pokemon he had seen before.]... friends?

[costaliris]

[Well that was... impressive at the very least. Not every day a human displayed a skill that would be usually ascribed to a Pokemon in his world.

It's also a tad stomach churning. Or maybe that's just the exhaustion. Who knows at this point. Either way he's just glad to be on mostly solid ground and away from the wolves that were intent on wearing them down to nothing.]

I can do that...

[A tired sigh and he finds a place to flop down, holding out the Pokeballs to let the others return to the outside.]
