Jungle Night's - Legend

[Nix Night]

Nix leaned back in the tree she was sitting in, watching the sun drop down below the line of trees in front of her and gave a small sigh. Within moments of the darkness trying to wrap around her, the soft glow of her sister at her side broke through it with the gentle flicker of purple moving below the both of them.

Kuda was curled up on the ground, eyes watching the Flying type moving in the trees across from the group as Hartley tried to work on that flying thing, even with Hex below him making comments on how sloppy he was and how he was still no good at it. Hunter was beside the ponyta, thinking much the same if his expression was to be followed but he didnt give it away with words.

The final of the rangers pokemon floated beside her, watching the sunset with her and then reaching out a mist formed hand to gently tap her shoulder. She turned to the ghost type and then shook her head, pointing up at the stars in the sky began to shine softly. "We have time, and its a clear night, so we'll be out here today" she answered an unspoken question, the grass type smiling a little excitedly at her words as shadow chuckled on the redheads other side.

The dark jungle was full of potential and promise. The sweet scent of summer grass and plump, fat foliage from shrubs and trees lingered on the breeze. Though it was late in the season for branches like the one Nix lingered on to bear blossoms, many were heavy with fruit. Some would ripen later. Some, however, were ready for the harvest now.

Above Nix, the branches of a nearby tree were tangled in the one she reclined within. The branches had fused many seasons ago. Bark yielded to soft inner flesh and the plants, more accepting of one another’s bodies than most other life, shared with one another; vascular systems for nutrients and water as well as the nature of their fruit. All of this was to say that Nix was in a bountiful place. Camping here would be easy.

The night would be warm and clear. There was plenty of food around. … Which was, perhaps, the whole problem. With only a squeak as warning, Nix Shadow, and Nemori would find a purple-and-black body landing on the branch. The one above rattled. And, that spectacular hybrid fruit? The result of this season’s collaboration between Nix’s tree and the one nearby? Splattered on the ground below.

Oh well. There was plenty of other picking left in the jungle. Not that anyone would have guessed it from the way the little flying type at once sat up, ignored the peaceful moment he’d interrupted and started shrieking. “NO!! I dropped it! Now what am I gonna bring…?!”

Someone interrupted.

Nix closed her eyes and listened to the forest around her, fingers flexing in to the air before moving down to grip the wood below her and rub her fingertips against the bark before all in a moment, several thing happened at once and the womans eyes snapped open.

Hartley's jump was thrown off by something falling behind him as he moved, the male turning his head to look only to crash in to the tree he had been moving to land in and slowly dropping down through the branches and leaves that he had hoped to be his perch.

Hex jumped back as something struck her back, turning around sharply and growling at the pair of dark types lying down only to find Hunter laughing and Kuda rolling his eyes, nodding his head to the female. It took a few seconds of angry noises but in time, she turned her head and noted the fruit splashed out over her white fur and snarled again.

Nemori jumped in to his trainers lap at the arrival of someone, something new, and pressed his head to her chest as nix opened her eyes. Shadow already hopping over the trainer and looking over the new arrival, before speaking softly as the rest of the chaos around the group went on. "Bring? Do you need something to take? My trainer has some berries which are a little less than common, or just healing" she asked before offering, deciding that acting like she knew what was going on might lead her to in fact doing so.

For half a second, purple bat-like pokemon tensed up, expecting a battle to initiate. The pokemon belonging to trainers often came out to the wild solely to recruit or train, after all, and the little noibet was much too busy tonight to bother with any of that! So, to say he was pleasantly surprised with the reveal of Shadow’s generous intentions was putting it mildly.

“Whoa, really?!” The noibat took to the air, fluttering all around the umbreon with glee. “Hehe, you’re the best! Whatcha got, whatcha got, whatcha got?!” He began sniffing the air, nostrils flaring as he picked up on a melody of different berry smells and…

Wait. That smell…! That smell and that hair…!

Latching onto the branch above and feigning an air of decorum and calm, the noibat’s ears flopped back against his head. He played very disinterested, very mature. “I mean… No thank you. That’s very kind. I’ll just, uh, find another…”

And, then, under his breath: “Though, if I’m late, she’s gonna yell at me just as much as if I’d taken something…”

Someone interrupted.

Shadow chuckled as the flying type spoke and turned her head, Nemori already passing a hand through the bag his trainer held and pulling out one of each of the types of berries they had just in time to turn around and offer the handful out to a pokemon who no longer wanted them. The hands of the ghost type dropped a little and one of the berries, the lum, dropped through them and hit the branch below him.

Shadow moved just in time to snatch the berry up in her mouth, now unable to ask what had changed but holding the item out with the disappointed ghost type beside her. Nix of course didnt understand the context to what was going on, though noibat was a pokemon she knew well due to her brother so she had a little of an idea. "Hey, its no trouble, we have a huge garden at home so go on, pick something" she offered, not sure quite what had happened to change the mood so fast.

She was just as kind as he’d been told!! The noibat fretted, frantically shaking his head as Nix offered her kindness. His ears flopped loudly for his effort, smacking each side of his head.

“No, I couldn’t… I couldn’t…”

He couldn’t. But, if she and her team were to show up…

Right. Yeah, okay. Maybe he could play a little manners shenanigans. There were many situations that making a game out of being polite could solve! So, calming himself and using his very best good-boy voice (and ignoring how surprised he was that she understood him, or at least, understood the situation) he answered.

“I couldn’t possibly carry all of those,” he pleaded. “But, it’d make everyone happy if you brought them.”

He cocked his head and smiled so wide his eyes shut. Would it come off properly given that he was still upside down, clinging to the branch above with his feet?

Someone interrupted.

Nix tried to keep a straight face as ears she was sure were never that big on violet seemed unable to keep themsleves in place as the pokemon before her moved, though from the frowns on her pokemons faces she was confused to work out he was still telling her no. Looking to Nemori who was shifting himself, letting shadow drop the other berry back in to his pile and sniffing a little now, nix began to feel a little anger at the snub rising in her chest before Shadows ears twitched up as the pokemon spoke again.

The dark type looked over their company, then down to her team mates and then back to her sister, nix had enough of a grasp that she had been invited somewhere but was still a little confused. "Well alright, you lead the way and we'll follow behind" the umbreon offered, slowly rising to her feet and leading nix to begin to do the same. She even leaned over, scooping up her ghost type as best as she could in her arms as she started to climb down the tree before shadow turned back to the flying type with a hiss. "Next time though, try not to upset the child because you dont know what you want" she warned in a growl of a voice, eyes tracking on Nemori as his head bobbed up and down on the rangers shoulder.

They agreed! The noibat released the branch, doing a little summersault in the air before fluttering near them to prepare to depart. Though, yeesh! That umbreon could be scary.

“Jeez, you remind me of my sister,” the boy mumbled. “Gotcha! Sorry, I got nervous!” That was his louder reply.

The flying type would circle over everyone at the bottom of the tree. If/When they were all gathered, he’d finally notice the pelt of the one who had been splattered with the ruined berry. Hm. Maybe they’d all keep quiet about his muck ups here…? Maybe no one would ask about how he’d found this lot and just be happy he’d brought them along…

Yeah. Here was hoping.

“Okay!! Let’s go, go, go! You’ll have a great time!”

The noibat flapped his wings, taking off in the direction he had in mind. Though, the little guy didn’t think to consider the ground-bound members of the party’s path. Hopefully, they would be able to keep up…!

Roll to see if Nix (and any pokemon that can’t fly or float) follow without tripping.

Shadow was going to take the boy on his word, nodding to him as he spoke again and trying to ignore that she could hear muttering but by now, nix had already climbed down the tree and was explaining to the pokemon on the ground some of what was going on. As such, the dark type was quick to hop down herself, coming to a rest on the ground and shaking herself as nix began returning pokemon because she didnt want to just wander in to some new place with an entire pack around her.

After a few seconds, she was left with her sister, Nemori in her arms still cradling his pile of berries and Hartley who was offering to lead the charge before he paused and looked to the dragon type. By now he was already off, and the grass type grinned and hurried after him, the girls looking to one and other, laughing, and then setting off after the duo.

After some traveling, more difficult for some of the party than others, the group would come to a massive tree. It was only a little taller than the high, canopy forming trees making up the rest of the jungle. This one’s foliage was thicker, though. During the day, it needed no help blocking out the sun. Nothing else grew under it because of that.

During the night, it was host to any number of glowing, kindly pokemon. Though, there were a lot more than normal. A lot more than normal. It actually looked like—

“We made it before the ceremony started!!” The noibat chirped with glee. He fluttered over to Nemori, gesturing to an assortment of berries and other delectable items. They were arranged neatly. “There! Put ‘em there!”

While the flying type was gleefully encouraging his new guests to put away the berries, another approached.

“Brother,” growled the approaching pokemon. The ninetales’s fur bristled along her spine and each tail was bottlebrush puffed.

The noibat squeaked in alarm. “Heeey, Sis! Look who I spotted along the way! I just had to get these ultra super special guests here! ‘Cause, they wanted to see the ceremony.” He looked over Nix’s party. “Right? You guys were so excited to come see this, right?”

The ninetales’s eyes narrowed as the noibat was silently pleading for the party to play along. His eyes were practically shimmering with desperation.

NIX didn’t get dirty.

SHADOW the UMBREON is dirty now.

Nix moved as best as she could while carrying a child, trying to keep a hyper teen in eye sight and under control as well as keeping an eye out on her sister. As such, when the first two took too much of her focus, she stopped beside the large tree and began to catch her breath only to find her sister catching up from behind the group in quite the state.

"Not. One. Word." the umbreon growled out, nix trying to keep a straight face before the noibat spoke and nix felt Nemori twist in her arms and drop down from them, floating over to where he had been shown to go and placing one of each of the types of berries his trainer kept and grew on the spot.

Nix on the other hand was watching the vulpine that came closer, nodding to the pokemon as it did so and a little thankful these were both pokemon she had been exposed to. As the Noibat went on, Hartley had no issue nodding to his words while shadow began to try to pull the worst of the dirt off herself, humming in unfocused agreement. "Totally, this is something i wanna see for myself" nix added in pokespeak, taking the cues she could to try and react, she hoped, correctly.

Nix's words were clear enough. The ninetales’s slow boiling irritation at the noibat was washed away in an instant and replaced with slack-jawed awe. “Truly…?” The fire type’s ears flopped and about three of her tails curled beneath her. A soft, apologetic tone warmed her previously fierce voice. “Brother… I am not sure how you found Father’s challenger, but I…”

The fox’s eyes fell shut. She shook her mystified, awestruck mood away. “I am grateful. Come, please…!”

A pause. The ninetales was staring at Shadow. Though some effort was being made by the dark type to clean herself up, it had clearly caught the fox’s attention.

The noibat stepped in again. “Nooo problemo, Sis! Uh, hey, Umbuddy!” He’d decided all on his own to nickname Shadow, it seemed. “C’mon, I know where you can get cleaned up! Supernaturally clean!”

“Yes, there’s probably time… Everything has to be perfect, though. I’m sorry, I… I’m very grateful, impossibly grateful that pokemon and a human like you all could be here, but…”

And, there was the issue of the moment. Shadow wasn’t fit to go to whatever ceremony was going on right now, but there was a solution. It sounded as if it would take her away from the rest of the group for a little while. Not the entire night, certainly, and not even through the entirety of this event. Would the umbreon be okay with going off for this “supernatural” clean up?

There would likely be consequences to going to such a clearly popular event dirty…

SHADOW the UMBREON is dirty now.

Additionally, the berries placed are fine as story element/flavor text. But, if you would like any actual items placed there, please note which/how many.

[Nix Night]

Nix found herself understanding the tone of the fire type, though this pokemon was bigger than pumpkin and didnt quite move like her or give herself away in the same way. As such, shadow was acting as the translator once more for the human until the female paused, stopped, and then looked to the noibat and nix found herself even more confused.

Well, she understood the bat pokemon of course but then looked between the fire type and him and frowned a little more. Well, whatever this was clearly mattered a lot and while nix wanted to ask more on that "father" thing, she also knew she was a stickler for the rules which meant a lot to those around her. Sure, muddy shoes on her floor were fine, but Logan? No, she got this one.

"I mean i do have types on my team to help, but, i expect you know better" the ranger started before she looked to the bat pokemon and nodded, smiling to him as shadow turned her head and tried to look over herself. Ok, she had clean paws now but yes, the rest of her was rather sprayed up in mud and there were a few leaves stuck there and, oh, yea, she needed a wash. Lifting herself up, and glancing to the smug looking griffin beside the pair, she nodded for the noibat to lead the way.

“Not like these!” the noibat bragged. “The spa team’s sooo talented and—”

“Brother,” the ninetales interrupted, “please allow our guest to experience the exceptional service rather than tell her.”

“Oh. Right.” The flying type giggled before fluttering off slowly. “C’mon! You and me, Umbuddy!!”

The fire type, meanwhile, let out a little sigh of relief. “He’ll be so delighted… You bested my father, so even you just witnessing and approving of his ascension will mean a lot to his position in the family.” Much as her brother had gone off in one direction, the fox-like pokemon began walking toward another.

Her many cream-colored tales swished invitingly, gesturing like hands might in the direction she was going. If Nix and the remainder of her team followed. The ninetales would lead them to where the pokemon drawn by this massive tree were gathered. Fairy and psychic types abounded, as did other pokemon drawn by the lively energy of the forest.

In the midst of the crowd, a familiar sight would await: the rainbow crowned stag and another ninetales! This one was undoubtedly the fellow who had accompanied Xerneas in Nix’s previous encounter.

But, between that duo and Nix’s escort as well as her team, there was a crowd… which quickly parted upon seeing who was guiding who. The ninetales looked back gleefully.

“Ah… You relied a bit on your friend to translate for you before, I noticed. Would we still be able to speak? I would love for you to fully understand what’s about to occur… Especially of the honor that might be granted…!”

Xerneas and the more senior ninetales had not looked over from where they were speaking to one another.

Refrain from using SHADOW for two posts and there will be a boon.

There was a moment of course where Shadow was lead away and nix began to fidget, she was aleays beside the dark type and so used to being around her that being without her for even a little while began to set off all sorts of alarms in her head. Hartley of course knew so little of all this and was far too taken in by the scene around him to notice but a small hand slipped in to nix's, impressive seeing as she had balled her hands in to fists, and she glanced down to find nemori looking in to her eyes.

She gave a small smile, listening as he translated for the ninetales seeing as nix was half paying attention now and she nodded slowly, he was offering her a distraction. Pausing in confusion for a moment as she took in the words, she looked over to the pokemon and began to question, her mouth just opening before the fox began to move away.

Keen not to be left behind, she started after the vulpine, leaning over and scooping up nemori in to her arms as she moved. She took in all the pokemon, the noise, the movement and she noted Hartley seemed to marvel at it all, with nemori digging his head in to her chest as almost his direct contrast.

As the fox spoke again, nix was too busy with her eyes focused on the large pokemon she had met before to catch her grass types words. "I can. He wont, he'll forget, and you are like a bigger prettier version of Miss Pumpkin, but I can...try" he mumbled through the fabric of the rangers shirt, nix in this time quiet and stunned as she took in the duo she was suddenly getting very forceful memories of.
