ooc// Oh! Weedy gains two levels.
ic// The grunt wished that he hadn't hung in the battle long enough for Ponyta to faint, since otherwise he would have been able to make a fast getaway on the horse's strong, speedy back. He felt a tug at the cage on his arm. Glancing back, he saw Ajax wrench it from his grasp, making him gasp and stumble. How on earth had he managed to get to him that fast? His dæmon hissed in hatred, while he glared at the Scizor 'morph, reaching for the cage again.
"Hey, you can't do that? How...?" he was in a little shock, making another lunge for the fainted shiny Zigzagoon. He was finding it hard to take it from the 'morph, since he was so fast. "You don't know how important that Pokémon is to Team Tsuasa! We need its DNA for more Pok- Argh! Shut up!" he yelled, at the last words extremely annoyed with himself for letting that slip. He hit himself on the head, making a last attempt to grab the cage. Ajax was just too fast, and he realised that now, running off rather than facing what was coming to him.

► Ajax nodded a bit mutely and began walking towards the end of Route 1 towards Route 2 again, the Zigzagoon still in the crook of his arm. Styl and Scilde trailed after him and Nyx flapped above. «

► ”Weedy! Just when you were doing so well!” Ajax yelled, until he looked back at the Ponyta and noticed—the firey horse was struggling on the ground, shooting a fairly frail Ember attack at Weedy before its muzzle finally hit the dust. The other guy seemed to be in shock—just what Ajax wanted. ”HA! Take that, loser!” Styl blinked, the crest on her head standing straight up with surprise. She had expected the grunt to have another Pokemon. Weedy had cleared his head of the dizziness, easily rolling away from the Ember attack due to the slow, weak movement of the assault. The flames spluttered and died on the tree’s bark. ”You won, Weedy, you won! Awesome job! I take back all the stuff I said!” Ajax grinned joyfully, dashing over to pick up the seahorse and spin him around, while Weedy grinned back and nuzzled his Trainer, attempting to ignore the huge lump that was forming on his head from crashing into the tree. «
► However, Ajax froze and turned his head at Larry’s words, all the anger returning. ”Hey, wait, Slowpoke-slop. Don’t you dare run away; you lost fair and square, now you turn yourself in and let that Zigzagoon go!” Weedy jumped with surprise as he was returned to his Pokeball so abruptly it was almost rude, Ajax shoving the capsule in his pocket as he dashed after Larry. Nyx, who had been waiting for something like this to happen, grabbed Styl and Scilde by the scruffs of their necks, zipping off after Ajax, still as a Skarmory. Scilde only wriggled uncomfortably for a few moments before dangling and watching the chase with large eyes, but Styl twisted her small body, trying to claw and peck Nyx’s talons to no avail. She even attempted an Ember, with a dangerous glare from the dæmon she swallowed the fire in her throat and slumped mutinously, watching Ajax’s pursuit. «
► Even though each of the Ajax’s strides were half of that of Larry’s, there was no doubt that he truly had the speed of a Scizor. His head became a red blur, wings whirring behind him as he zipped swiftly towards Larry, catching up to the cage-weighted man with ease. After all, this was what he had been created and trained for all his life—catching potential thieves and assassins, getting to the Prince as fast as possible, no matter where he was. As soon as he was near enough (which was fairly soon) he flicked out his claw and snatched at a bar of the cage, coming to an immediate halt and accelerating backwards with all the momentum he had gain in his sprint towards Larry, hoping to yank the cage out of his grip and then put as much distance as possible between himself and the grunt. Since Larry was running forward, a sharp movement would probably be just the thing to open the human’s grip. In another age he might have even jumped the guy but…mistakes too drastic to be forgotten camped at the edges of his consciousness. «
► Nyx flew at a close distance, although above the treetops, nodding as she observed Ajax’s plan of attack. She only worried if the method was so effective that he’d simply end up ripping a couple bars out from the cage instead of actually grabbing it away. «

[/I] Her gaze fell on her human, who was standing in somewhat of a daze. Setting down Styl and Scilde, she said, ”Well, we’ve got a few options. You can put him in your bag so he won’t be seen, catch him with a Pokeball and release him later if he wants it, or get through Route 2 as fast as possible until we reach Silav town.” «
► Ajax’s backwards momentum sent him careening back across the Route, but he gasped as he yanked the cage from Larry’s grip—it was pretty heavy. He swung the cage upward so he could carry it with both hands instead of just having it dangle from his claw, wincing as the edge of the steel screeched across the metal exoskeleton on his shoulder and then slashed across his chest, earning his shirt a rip and a good cut horizontally across the chest, under the collarbone. It was deep enough that it would stay as a scar for at least a couple years. Ajax even stumbled a bit; again, his Scizor DNA saved him, his wings immediately snapping open to adjust his balance. «
► Larry was beginning to gain on him, and Ajax strained to run faster. His agility saved him as he swerved aside a couple times when the grunt made grabs for the cage. The Scizor morph gritted his teeth—he knew the cage was weighing him down too much. In a swift movement, he tore off the lock with his claw, reached in and grabbed the fainted Zigzagoon with his left hand, allowing the cage to drop. Now that the impediment was gone, Ajax was able to run as quickly as he had before, not stopping until Larry broke off the chase and fled. Staying standing in case the grunt was planning some sort of sneak attack, he peered at the Zigzagoon, cradling it in one arm. His wings hummed behind him, desperately regulating his temperature; Ajax couldn’t sweat. ”Pokemon Center,” Ajax said hastily, regaining his breath quickly in spite of the dash he had made earlier. Then he paused, worried. He still had to get through Route 2 before getting to the first town. He could go back to the lab—the Professor might know how to treat the Zigzagoon. Even so…ugh, even a Potion wouldn’t help; those only worked on non-fainted Pokemon. Curse it all. «
► Nyx gave an amused nod at the seriously angry Poochyena dæmon. She was tempted to continue the chase after Larry (after all, he might lead herself and Ajax back to his Team’s base, and that would be an enticing discovery) but she knew with Poochyena’s ability of Run Away, it would be incredibly difficult to trail Larry. Instead she decided to think about what he had said. Team Su-wasa. We’ll have to keep a lookout for them. And they needed that shiny Zigzagoon’s DNA for…what? She quickly ran through various possibilities in her mind, soaring back to where Ajax was and trying to ignore the wriggles from Styl and Scilde, who were still dangling from her talons. Cloning, genetic sequencing, genetic enhancement, study on strength and shiny gene, shiny Pokemorphs.
► Ajax nodded a bit mutely and began walking towards the end of Route 1 towards Route 2 again, the Zigzagoon still in the crook of his arm. Styl and Scilde trailed after him and Nyx flapped above. «
