Cyrus looked rather surprised. 'You caught a Murkrow? That wasn't what I expected, not at all...' she said. 'For obvious reasons.'

'Anyway, if anyone's not up to it, it's likely to be me... I missed a lot of training time.'

"Well, I figured that having a conflicting Pokemon might help me get used to other dark auras. TK is also uncomfortable with dark things, so I thought it might be good for him." TK looked around, taking in the very arboreal Gym. "If you think you're ready, go for it."

(...Maybe NOT go to sleep yet then, if you're still on. xD)

'Makes sense...by other dark auras, I'm assuming you mean me.' Cyrus said. 'I'd prefer not to go first...wait, aren't there gym trainers? There always were back in Johto and Kanto.;

"From what I know, most Gym leaders in Bombur don't have Gym Trainers. Then again, I'm not completely sure. It would seem that there aren't any here, though."

(What sort of Pokemon - and what levels - should the thug have?
Fell asleep whilst thinking what to write...sleeping patterns horrible right now...)

Meanwhile, outside the Gym, a dark-clothed figure watched through the window. 'Target: Bastion Gym.' he muttered, and waited for the best time to go in and steal from it.

(Is this one of the special thugs from one of the teams, or just a regular run-of-the-mill thug? If it's just a regular one, I wouldn't imagine he would have anything too powerful. Probably around level 10, and I would think probably common Dark or Fighting types.)

Steph was starting to become impatient, waiting for Calleo, particularly since there were not any Gym Trainers she could battle. She paced---anything would be more entertaining than standing still and passively wondering when Calleo would appear. She decided to look out the window in idleness, perhaps to observe any people that happened to be passing by. Instead she found a suspicious figure in dark clothes watching. Calleo's not around....how can I warn him? If he spotted me already, which he probably has, he could run away before reinforcements arrive...

If he has not spotted me, then telling the others about him would only alert him. If I am too far away to talk with the others more subtly, then he could sneak past or flee before we can catch him.

She thought of telling Lumin and Cyrus that she was going out for some fresh air, but she was not and that would be lying. She abhorred lying. It was a silly excuse too, so instead she simply walked towards the door, alone in her attempt to apprehend the thug.

At first, the thug didn't notice Steph. 'Now how to get in without being noticed...' he muttered. Turning to get a better viewpoint, he noticed Steph and jumped back. 'Who're you? I'm just an innocent bystander, nothing to see here!' His gaze darted around, it was obvious he had something to hide.

If I were a thug, at least I would have more finesse, Steph thought idly.

''As much as I like battling....'' Steph started to say, before realizing this thug might have the common sense to skip battling and simply flee while she was talking---not that it ever happened before, but the grunts of Bombur might be different to those of Hoenn and Sinnoh. That, and maybe he could tell by the four Poké Balls she possessed that she was not something he could defeat in a minute, making it more likely he would try fleeing.

''It is more efficient to skip it.'' Steph called out Ariados; Ariados's String Shot would have the thug immobilized.

''Ariados!'' Ariados hissed, with an unusual harsh echo that was probably from Ariados's specialness.

(Tyrogue's level 6, the other will be level 7.)

The thug noticed Ariados and stepped back again. He knew if he tried to run then he'd be caught instantly. 'Only one thing for it... Go, Tyrogue!' he shouted, throwing a Poke Ball. 'Get them with Fake Out!'

'Tyroooh!' As Tyrogue appeared, it darted forwards, striking Ariados.

(Finally, a use for the abdomen-legs.)

Fake Out performed its effects, and Ariados flinched, knocked over onto its side. Ariados lay stunned for a moment before kicking itself back onto its feet with its abdomen-legs. ''Ariados, use Constrict.'' Ariados shot threads of webbing from both its mouth and rear, scuttling haphazardly around Tyrogue to wind and tighten the two cords around the target.

(Going by the Platinum-onwards moveset, doesn't make much difference ^^
I don't have a clue what Foresight would do in this situation - I don't use it much - so going by the move description and Japanese name. ^^
Tackle would have same sort of power, no changes ^^)

'Foresight! Then Tackle!' the thug yelled. Tyrogue focused, and seemed to become able to predict reasonably accurately where Ariados was going to be. It pulled back a bit, and as Ariados came past, used the thread as a sort of slingshot to Tackle it using the momentum it couldn't gain for itself.

Meanwhile, inside the Gym, Cyrus - focusing hard on strategies - didn't notice anything of the commotion outside; she didn't even notice a healing machine in the corner at first. When she did eventually see it, she - realising Ikari would need healing - placed Ikari's Poke Ball in the machine.

Ariados rose onto its feet once more after collapsing from the impact of Tackle. "Use String Shot to swing from the roof!''

Ariados redistributed the threads projecting from its mouth and rear to ascend onto the overhang of the Gym's building, zigzagging in its momentum before tautly adjusting the webbing from its rear to observe Tyrogue.

''Now use Poison Sting!" From its position above Tyrogue, Ariados's the tip of Ariados's mouth-thread glowed purple. A barrage of thin, sharp rods of poison shot out of the tip, speeding towards Tyrogue.

Hit by the Poison Sting, Tyrogue struggled to keep going, but the poison overcame it and it fainted. The thug silently recalled it, and sent out a Mankey. 'Scratch.' he said, his former determination seeming to have left him somewhat. 'Mannn...KEY!' The Mankey bounced forwards onto Ariados's back, and began to Scratch at it.

Ariados made aerial cartwheels, agile maneuvers of String Shot as it swung, releasing and catching itself through its threads. It spun across the overhang, making it difficult for Mankey to hang on well enough to Scratch once more, before managing to turn around mid-swing and slam the passenger into the outside wall of the Gym.

Steph watched Ariados's movements with increasing admiration and confidence---it truly could bring firepower to her team, with such amazing speed and power.

(I think that would also count as a critical hit...and if Mankey has Anger Point and a lot of luck...no way it can beat Ariados though xD
My netbook lost power in the middle of typing this...I have to be SO careful now, no sudden movements

)

Mankey dropped to the ground, dazed...before getting up angrier than ever. It was obviously very weak, but that didn't stop it leaping along the threads and Scratching Ariados again in a furious rage, before succumbing to its injuries and dropping to the ground, fainted. The thug recalled it, and - resorting to basic tactics - flung a small stone towards the Gym, hoping the distraction would allow him time to run.

''Ariados, use String Shot!" Steph commanded. Ariados showed bruises and scratches but no weakness; and with unfaltering obedience cartwheeled over to the thief, discarding the previous silken cord used for rappelling onto the thug and spraying an immobilizing net to cover him like a stiffening mist. ''That was excellent, Ariados!" Steph complimented brightly. Ariados showed such promise to her team.

''As for you....I'm not sure where the police station is. You might as well lead me there.''

'I-I don't know!' the thug stuttered, obviously lying. 'I-I've never been there! What would they want with me?' He tried to get out of the net, but to no avail.

(You could always make the thug try leading Steph to a hideout where other thugs could try ambushing her.)

''Please stop stuttering. It's rather annoying.'' Steph asked bluntly. She really only expected the thug to growl and grunt at this point, not stutter like some clueless sap. "I guess I'll have to locate the station myself.'' Steph muttered. ''Ariados, could you try leashing the grunt?'' Ariados descended from the overhang and shot another cord at the mass of netting before walking towards Steph, looking to be steadfastly awaiting further commands. ''Thank you, Ariados.'' Steph smiled, walking away from the Gym to find the police station.

(I could...can't believe I didn't think of that considering a certain quest earlier. xD)

'I think it's that way!' the thug said quickly and unconvincingly, pointing down a street leading to the outskirts of the city. He really didn't want to be taken to the police station, having, in fact, been there many times before.
