Amber doesn't so much at blink as her partner is confused--mostly because there's no part of her that realizes there's a problem when the small yellow pokemon claps. She think it's rather cute, to be honest. It knows that she's sending Totodile to help! It's cheering for them! That must mean they're doing something right!

She's a bit more concerned when the Totodile wobbles, trying to make a step forward. It seems to lose its balance, flailing, and she watches it smack itself in the face with no small amount of disbelief. Did the hypnotic effect of the balls affect them if they were out for too long? Should she not have left the animal outside to travel with them?

She bites her lip. These balls must be so much more dangerous than she thought! She runs up until she stands beside Christine, biting her lip as Cecil moves, his pokemon throwing a shoot of flame. If it's still standing, this is her best chance to help! These balls....she has to see them in action!

She throws one at the pokemon in the seconds after its first attack, biting her lip and waiting for the smoke to clear.

Seeing the mouse's little dance, Joe's Grimer took it as encouragement to play and shuffled closer to the wild Pokemon, slapping its pseudopods happily against the ground as it approached. A spray of slimy dirt was inadvertently kicked up by the force of the impacts, scattering at the sapling's feet.

Cecil may have abandoned his attempts at stealth, but Joe wasn't about to reveal himself. Making a low dash to the next tree, he peeked out from his cover and paled as he saw his defender apparently engaging one of the wild monsters. He didn't care about its life in any real sense, not yet, but if it died that would be one less living wall between himself and whatever dangers roamed the world...

Out of long habit, his eyes scanned the trucks for any hidden threats as he got closer, palming his spanner with a white-knuckled grip.

Bunnie, moving forward, the mon don't really seem to notice you at the moment, too focused on the active threats that have appeared. The long-haired critter in the truck however, is now looking at you curiously, before tossing the remnants of its meal into its cavernous, toothy maw.

The other mustelid, seeing its friend attacking, lets out a hiss of delight and defiance, extending its claws, leaping down from the truck roof... and slashing past the little humanoid as it goes! The little creature gives out a shriek of pain, the sparks it had been emitting faltering as two deep wounds are opened across its rotund belly. Luckily, it's not enough to gut the creature, and it responds in kind, energy crackly over its frame as it speeds up, chasing down its attacker and attempting to clip it round the ear with one over-sized arm. Instead, its foot catches in a tangle of undergrowth, and the little creature falls to one knee with a cry of pain.

Joe, creeping forward more, you spot the critter that seems to have caught Bunnie's gaze, though it doesn't see you. From your new angle, you can see that a hole has been torn into the back of the truck that the little thing is perched in, and with the faint light streaming from cracks in the trailer walls, you can see ancient plastic bins all askew. One of them is illuminated just enough to make out the Vault-Tec logo.

Boneyard, receiving his command from his pack leader, snarls before spitting a painfully familiar wad of flame at the aggressive mon. The results are nothing short of spectacular.

With a high-pitched hiss and a scream of pain, the fire attack easily incinerate much of the creature's fur on its left side, leaving ugly charred holes in its hide as it wavers on its feet. And then, from the right of Christine, a pokeball flies overhead as Amber arrives on the scene, smacking the little monster square in the snout, and easily drawing it into the capsule. It shakes a couple of times, before pinging, leaving Amber with a satisfied look... and the other mustelid looking furious... and afraid.

Cecil, your struggling with Christine seems to come to naught, the girl is as slippery as your new friend and totally focused on trying to heal the pathetically quivering bell... which lets out a surprisingly intimidating jangle. Who knew a bell could sound like a growl?
(-1 Attack CS on Bones, Christine, Cecil and Amber)

Grimer's playful splashing sends mud scattering to either side of the little tree, which lets out a shriek of fear, before its three "leaves" begin glowing white, and it sends back a similar wave of mud at Grimer, hitting the sludge pile in the eyes, and apparently slightly disrupting its cohesiveness!
(Grimer takes 10 points of special ground damage before defense and weaknesses, and is at -1 to accuracy)

Finally, the little creature that's so enthralled Bunny enters the fray. Waddling slightly as it hops down from inside the truck, it ambles over to Boneyard, getting the mutt's attention with a muted "Munch!" Before extending an impressively long tongue and licking Boneyard from his chin to his eyes! The little dog is left shivering from the lick, muscles contracting and leaving him nearly locked in place!
(Lick! Boneyard is paralyzed, Boneyard takes 23 physical ghost damage, before applying defense and resistances)

"Dammit DeLoria," Christine says, glaring at him. "You said it yourself. I'm a doctor. My job, my duty, is to help things. Damn the natural order of things. These things aren't natural. Humans made them, so this human is going to help the one that needs help." As she says this, she's rummaging through her pack to get what she needs.

When the bell jangles, she was surprised... but then again, a lot of patients don't like the procedures needed to save them. "Easy there, little one, I'm just here to help you," she says softly, spraying it with the medicine she finally found. This was her element, not the fighting part.

Bones, lacking any orders, just looks "endearingly" (as much as he possibly can) over at the creature that looks the same as the one he was last told to attack.

Amber nods, eyes lighting up as the smoke clears and the ball sits there after a soft click. A success! She's so excited to examine that ball! And...also vaguely distracted, because did that pokemon just /lick/ the other one?

She licks her lips, looking around. "Toto, you okay?" She calls out nervously. "Help them take out the other one!"

The Totodile wavers for a moment, before shaking his head. He looks around, assesses the situation and finally glares at the Sneasel. His claws streak a bright, shiny metallic color as he slashes out at the dark pokemon!

Joe sighed internally in relief as the furry creature he'd spotted was drawn from its hidden position by the commotion. As it left the truck and turned its back to him, Joe scrambled to take cover behind the trailer, nerves screaming at him that there might still be another threat hidden in the other convoy vehicles.

Grimer seemed unperturbed by the slight abrasion it got as the sapling returned its gesture, rolling around and releasing a wave of noxious fumes in its muted excitement.

"No. Your job is to help -us- survive, so we can help the people in the -vault- survive. If you were pulling this good Samaritan shit with a human, that's one thing. These are animals. They've been living aboveground, hunting, killing, and breeding for generations since our forefathers entered the vault. They don't need you."

Setting his jaw angrily, Cecil withdrew a pokeball from his pocket and turned around, leaving his back to the Chingling. Boneyard was making quite the face as that tongue drew along his body, quivering and spasming a bit. Great. Things weren't tits up enough, there was more of them coming out of the woodwork now. "Boneyard, the other one now." Cecil pointed at the other sneasel, taking stock of the chaos spreading out before him. Joe's Grimer was moving in on the group of them, and was likely to do /something/ offensive, better to just try and take the cut, squat humanoid out of the fight (Pokeball on Elekid).

Bunnie get out another Pokeball, not wanting to waste a moment if she doesn't have to. While the little fat thing doesn't think of her as a threat, she throws the ball in an attempt to catch.

The tiny mouse, seeing its companion go down, lets out a heart-breaking little squeak, before running up and... wagging its tail at the mustelid? Whatever it's trying to do, the dark-furred pokemon looks taken aback, its guard dropping slightly.

Bunnie's attempt to capture the little ball of rotundness seems to be going perfectly. The ball sails in a perfect arc, bops the mon on the head and sucks it inside. The orb wiggles and jiggles for a moment... then begins to spark and crackle with energy. A warning buzz from your Vault-Dex sounds, before the orb cracks open with a snap, releasing a rather aggravated looking little ball of fluff, which turns to glare in your direction.

The dark-furred biped hisses in Amber's direction, and seems to consider the Totodile as the greater threat than the down-and-out yellow biped or the apparently harmless mouse. It unsheathes its claws with a wicked gleam, and begins slicing at Totodile's scales with gusto.
(28 normal physical damage before defenses)

Joe, from your new position, you see that the trailer that was blocking off the other two isn't as nearly as whole as it hd looked from the front. There's a side panel that's completely caved in, and the undergrowth covering it from the other side masks a wide hole. You can sort of make out the combat that's happening, nad you think that with a good toss, you can lob a pokeball over the trailer, to hit any of the mon you can see.

Boneyard manages to shake off the strange effects of the lick it received, and follows its alpha's orders, though it's ears are pinned back and it's growling savagely at the rotund mon that had attacked it. His second fireball flies just as true as the first, and the dark-furred mon lets out a keening scream as it's horribly burned. The smell of charred hair and scorched flesh is awful. Somehow, it's still up on its feet though.

Cecil's lobbed ball smacks directly into the back of the yellow humanoid, which is sucked in with barely a struggle. The little mouse lets out another heartbroken cry, and Amber and Christine can see big fat tears welling up in its eyes from their vantage point as it claws futiley at the pokeball, not seeming to understand where its companion has gone.

Christine, the little bell isn't struggling nearly as much, and one eye pops open in shock as the potion begins to help metallic-looking flesh knit back together. It's looking at you with equal mix of curiosity and fear now you think. Rolling to its feet somewhat, it looks around wildly, before spotting the rotund mon that's glaring at Bunnie. Concentraing, a visible corona of some kind of energy surrounds it, before leaping to the target. The rotund mon is lifted off its feet, and begins to flail wildly, yelping as it windmills its arms to try and maintain its balance.

Totodile, shocked out of its stupor by the pain inflicted by the dark-furred mon, returns the favor in kind, small under-developed claws glinting with metallic light as it slashes at its opponent! The strike lays the mon's face open to the bone, and sends it spinning to the ground, passed out from the pain!

Grimer's happy grunting and gushing result in a noxious cloud that leaves the mouse and the strange sapling looking absolutely green and ill. They've been poisoned! The dark-furred mon, with its bloodied face in the dirt, manages to avoid inhaling any of the toxic fumes.

Bones, left without a target, glares impotently at nothing.

The little rotund mon, not seeming to realize where the source of its new problem is coming from, spins and tumbles through the air towards Bunnie, and attempts to use its newly-gained height to lick her face. The action however, merely sends it tumbling into a sideways spin with its tongue sticking out and flapping in the breeze.

The little sapling, looking ill even as it moves, finally gains the gumption to attack back, bowing sharply and smacking the Grimer with its top "leaf" sharply.
(headbutt, 22 physical normal damage before defenses)

Damn. Seems all my patients are the same, no matter the species, Christine sighs inwardly. "Bones, get over there and help Bunnie. We're fine here, now." She then turns to the little bell, sternly, remembering the many times she's said words along these lines. "Look, I know you're trying to help, but you've just been severely injured. So stop exerting yourself, and take the rest that you need to recover. I won't let anything happen to you, but you need some rest." She hopes that the bell at least gets the gist of what she's trying to say.

Menwhile, Bones unrolls, and waddles over to the rotund creature near Bunnie, trying to get it's attention.
