Deviation Actions
Literature Text
15 minutes have passed since the group headed out for the checkpoint. Like the shiny male Umbreon suggested was he waking ahead of the group, shortly followed by the female shiny Umbreon as the young Sentret stayed on her back and looked around rather carefully. The shiny Mienfoo and the freckled Fennekin were in the middle of the group to keep them both safe incase the morphing witch does attack them all instead. With the Sylveon and the young Lucario at the rear guard position was nothing going to get wrong for now.
As soon as they reached destination were they all playing the shamanic enchanted leaves near their mouths in order to be protected by the poisionous gas. "We reached the chokepoint... stay alearted, while I'll head into it on my own to drive the witch out." was Nox speaking up muffled through the leaf as he looks to the others. "Are you sure about that Nox?" was Lunette asking him about his idea, causing Yang to look very worried towards him. "Y-You shouldn't go alone. T-This gas can also make it hard to see. W-What if you confront her and your alone?"
He looked over to her with a serious expression on his face as he speaks out "It's better then all of us going deepper into the cave. Keeping this chokepoint unguarded means that Madeline could slip away from beeing caught. Unless two others are volunteering to get the totems that is." Lunette shook her head softly, knowing what he ment with that while Marco looked around. Reef shrugged to that as he didn't minded it if he'll tag along with him or not, while the Peach on the other hand doesn't seem to be willing to go further into the cave then they did.
Sonya seem to have snapped out of something as he got her attention with that, speaking directly towards him "I agree with Yang. We won't fight but our focus is getting those totems back. We'll go with you Nox while everyone else can hold the fort here. We can snag those totems from Madeline when we find her and run back this way. With that will we be leading her in to a trap where everyone else can capture her. She wants to run away with the totems so she'll likely chase us down if we take them away from her so this could-"
She stopped in her tracks and jumped a bit when a rather silent Espurr with blue eyes and a strange looking bell around his neck marching through the group. Yang seemed to be surprised and shocked at the same time, while the others looked rather confused towards the Espurr that also had a shamanic leaf on it's mouth as it instantly dissapeared into the deeper caverns that were filled with the poisionous gas. "D-did he just?!" was Nox saying rather shocked as the Sylveon suddendly started to rush after it, causing him to gasp a bit surprised from her reaction.
"Sonya w-wait!" was the shiny Mienfoo and him calling out at the same time. Sonya was about to vanish into the gas as she called out loudly "That might be her!" Causing Nox to blink a bit while Yang looked worriedly towards her direction. Reef slapped his paw onto his head as he calls out "Why isn't she never patient? She just agreed to not go alone." At the same time were the young Sentrets and the freckled Fennekins ears perked up a bit, before they both started to shiver a bit "S-scawy l-laugh" was Marco speaking up as he hides into Lunettes tail to be safe.
That got Nox in full aleart, as he instantly grabbed Yangs paw and started to rush after the Sylveon "Come on! Sonya's in great danger if we don't hurry after her! Little sis, i'm counting on you!" He quickly looked over to the shiny female Umbreon who nodded towards him with determination in return "Leave it to us big bro!" He made sure not to loose the shiny Mienfoos paw as she almost stumbled from her shocked state, finally snapping out of itwhen she got dragged along by him to look back and call out to the Lucario "R-Reef! S-Stay alert f-for me!"
The two rushed into the same direction as Sonya and vanished into the gas, feeling Yangs shaking body as she tried her best to keep up with Nox while not letting her fear get the better of hers. After a while of running in a straight line was it very hard to trace any scents with his nose, which instantly made him groan frustrated. "Yang... are you able to sense Sonya?" was he asking with a lot of worry on his face, which was still visible despite the leaf on his muzzle. "I... if we can't reach her in time will she..." was he starting, as he recalled what Sonya told back in Yawaru.
The shiny Mienfoo was as concerned and worried as him when she closed her eyes to concentrate to find the Sylveons aura within the cave they were in. *If Yang and I don't hurry up and find Sonya could that be too late to stop her from turning evil like her whole clan became!* were the shiny Umbreosn thoughs, causing him to shake his head as he decided to do something very risky for him. Using his native witch language did he mumbled something very hard to understand, which caused his silver witch aura to flare up strongly like a beacon next to her.
Whatever he just chanted caused his rings to shift their colors and glow silver very strongly, which didn't go unnoticed by other witches that were present as it seems to provide his friend more focus. She soon gasped out as her jade green eyes widened open towards a certain direction as she called out "I-I felt Sonya's aura spike... b-but it went down a bit." Her head shook softly as she pushed him towards the direction she felt their friends aura along with another one "S-Sonya found Madeline. T-Their auras are close but we have to hurry!"
Nox panted softly from releasing so much witch energy in such a short ammount of time, but it worked as he heared her saying that. *So my worries are right... Sonya haves a hard time holding back her instincts that her family taught her...* were his thought as Yang gaps out again as she feels them starting to move. "T-They're getting farther away. I-I'll lose them if they get too far!" was she yelling out as they started to run down the path towards them. He nodded to her determinated "Right! Let's keep pushing while you still can sense them! And don't be afraid to get on my back if your legs feel like giving in Yang."
She was panting softly as she tried to not lose the feel of the Sylveons aura along with the strange aura of the rouge schoolar, nervous and worried for their friends safety while his rings returned back to glow navy blue during the time they kept moving on. His silver eyes showcased both determination and worryness, all while his pulse was racing as he could also feel Madelines witch aura. "I-I'm fine! I-I can keep up!" was the shiny Mienfoo saying with a very strong determinated look on her face, one that made the shiny Umbreon happy.
The situation is dire if they won't make it in time to Sonya as he tought about her again *Hang in there please! Stay stubborn to your instincts like usual... don't let the dark side get you!* That's when he realised something that caused him to give out an annoyed groan "Shoot! I forgot that Madeline is a schoolar gone rouge and on top of that a Zoroark! What if we ended up in a trap of hers that was constructed by her Illusion and transform abilities?!" She gasped out loudly and holded her head very worriedly at what she's feeling right now.
His ears lowered down, all while he kept on moving to the direction they kept rushing on after hearing that. Nox couldn't help anymore but mumble what he was feeling in this particular situation "I'm very worried about Sonya's safety and sanity around Madeline..." That's when they both felt a strong shockwave impacting against them, followed by the distant sound of an explosion. "S-She's fighting the witch a-and is panicking..." was Yang speaking out as they both pushed as fast as they could towards the source of the explosion.
"She is... I can feel the witch aura near her..." was he calling out when he felt Madelines aura very clearly now. Once they were at the place did they both stopped on spot and gasped at the same time, surprised to see two Sylveons glarinng intensly at each other. They both were breathing heavily in a low crouched position ready to attack each other while there was no sign of the Totems during their fight. *This looks... like the trial I'd gone through in Yawaru...* was he thinking as the silver eyes of the shiny male Umbreon looked quickly back and forth between both, not beeing able to find any differences between them.
One of them lunging forward with a growl, causing the other to side step as it then proceeded to slam their shoulder into the attacker to knock them away. Yang was shaking softly in both fear and concern and snapped out of it when she heared Nox speak "I... can't tell who's the real Sonya... the witch aura is too strong for me to figure that out..." His ears lowered down as he frowns rather annoyed, given that he might end up her if he attacked one of the two. *Darn it! Is there nothing I can do right now besides protecting Yang from beeing harmed by the witch?!*
With that did he took a more protective stance infront of the shiny Mienfoo, as he speaks out softly "Yang... I'm counting on you my friend. I can't do anything until we know who the real one is" She nodded to him and gave a shaky sigh before concentrating, narrowing her green eyes at the two Sylveons trying to scratch or snap at each other before they were staring each other down again. The shiny Umbreons silver eyes kept track of them with a hint of worryness until Yang perked out and pointed to the Sonya on the right "H-Her! T-That's Madeline!"
Her voice was shaky but confident about it, which caused Madeline to be alerted by the two other beeings as her eyes flashing blue while her teeth grow pointed. "So you can see my aura huh? More troublesome beings to give the slip." was she speaking out while leaping backward, avoiding a Shadow Ball that was launched by the real Sonya. The witch tsks angrily then leaped back into the gas, getting out of sight while her aura was still noticable. "You can't hide forever!" was the real one speaking out angrly as she scanned the area.
The shiny Mienfoo placed her paws to her chest, as looked around worriedly and scared too. "This witch is gonna be a big pain in the butt. But for now..." was the shiny Umbreon speaking out as he walked over to their real friend Madeline got away again. "Sonya." was he calling her out, only to be met with a glare towards him while she was frustrated. She was about to say something as he raised his right paw, only to give her a hit on her head similair to how her Banette mentor used to hit her, causing her violet eyes to widen in shock.
"How dare you go on your own into such a dangerous situation while we all agreed to work together!?" was he now speaking up with a rather worried tone to her, only to suddenly hug her close to him. The Sylveon letted out a surprised yelp from that, looking very shocked when the shiny Umbreon started to rub the spot he striked down on. "I know you're having it tough because of your instincts. But please... don't let them get the better of you and stay with Yang." was he lecturing her as she looked taken back from his direct words towards her.
Nox soon letted go of her as he waves the shiny Mienfoo towards them "Stay together you two, I'll try to make her attack me instead. And please... don't give in your instincts you two, we've gone through a siimilair trial after all." Sonyas head looked down ashamed as she spoked out a soft mumbled "Sorry..." She then proceed to glance softly to him, then to Yang as she tried to continue to speak "I-I..." Yang smiled softly under her leaf and shook her head softly "I-Its ok. W-We understand. W-We'll leave this to you Nox and stick together."
Sonya sighs softly, then nodded towards him "Right." When the shiny Mienfoo was about to walk towards them did she gasped out in fear when she froze on spot, starting to shake again. Madeline reappeared as a Banette behind her, which caused the Eeveelutions to tension up as she narrowed her eyes at their friend "Nothing personal. Just need you to sleep for a bit." was she speaking out as she was quick enough to strike a type of Sucker Punch against the neck of Yang, causing her to yelp before falling to the ground unconcious.
"Yang!" were they both calling out as the rouge schoolar looked a bit apologizing, which then turned into a grin as she dissapeared into the gas again. The Sylveon leaped forward, then slided and kneeled next to the shiny Mienfoo with a very frantic look on her face "Yang?!" The shiny Umbreon placed his paw next to their friends neck, sighting a bit reliefed to feel her pulse. "She's still alive Sonya." She gritted her teeths and glared towards the direction the witch took off and got ready to chase her down as she yelled out "You coward!!!"
"Please stay with her, I'll get that cowarding witch for what she did to our friend, Alice and even you!" was he calling out as his rings shifted colors from navy blue to silver again, which he did on purpose this time as he moved out to search for Madeline instead of Sonya. Nox moved at least a bit away from them to a spot where he could freely use his full power without taking prisoners, as he looked around for the witch with a low, yet very notiable growl full of anger that was raging inside him "Come out from your hiding spot, coward!"
Madeline did indeed appeared infront of him with a big smirk on her face "Seems that the puppy wants to play now after I'd some fun with the Sylveon." Her form was still that of a Banette with some Zoroark features, while her eyes focused on his "I can see the same look in your eyes, just like hers. Are you from the same clan perhaps?" "Why are you so interested?!" was the shiny Umbreon responding to her as his silver rings flared up. "Then again, you're not like her... I can feel the dwelling witch power of yours inside your body."
A soft chuckle escaped her, as she flied around the male to be behind his back, only to whipser into his ear "So how about it? Wanna join forces with me, silver eyes?" Nox snarled to hear that, as he instantly tried to hit her with an Iron Tail, only to see how she was dodging it with ease as she humphed from his reaction. "What a pitty. You were full of potential for me, young Umbreon." with that did she actually transformed infront of him. His silver eyes could see how she started to morph from a Banette to something else.
The body of his was starting to shake softly as she did that infront of him, which he tried to stop with one, clear though *Stop it Dante, you've to defend your friends and take out the witch for them!* The body form of Madeline was changing drasticly, starting with her arms that were shifting to paws, which caused her to take a quardrouple position as she growls out deeply and a bit from the pain of doing a new transformation. The skin of hers shifted from beeing untouchable to touchable, as she got raven black fur from that as the silver rings appeared on them.
With that, did she opened her eyes towards the male shiny Umbreon, revealing that they were as silver as his. The witch transformed into Nox right infront of his eyes, who growled even louder because of that. "Just because you transformed into me will you not be able to stop me from attacking you, Madeline!" was he snarling in anger towards her. "Oh really? You clearly have forgotten one thing my dear." " was she speaking with a wicked laugh towards him, causing him to charge towards her with an Iron Tail aimed for her head.
"Whenever I'm transforming will i be able to use the same abilities you have." was she speaking out, as he surprisingly striked against a silver force field instead! Knowing that now did caused Nox to get even more angry, as he keeps on striking against the Protect Madeline was using from his form. Seeing him beeing despierate and too angry to realise that caused her to laugh at him "My my, you're a dense one aren't you? Give it up! You can't break through this surprisingly strong protection field that your form is providing for me~"
His growl became even deeper as he heared that, while she snickered from his reaction "I'll have so much fun fooling around your friends with this, thank you a lot for following me~" With that did the witch suddently dissapeared again, much to the displeasure of Nox as he speaks out very loudly in anger "GET BACK HERE YOU RAVEN MOTHER!" With worryness for his friends did he rushed back to the direction Sonya and Yang were as he kept growling in anger, all while as his rings returned navy black again, while she got silver rings instead.
The real shiny Umbreon got closer to the location of his friends, only to hear a broken ring of a bell as he arrives at them to see his Sylveon friend infront of him with narrowed violet eyes. She was standing in an attacking pose infront of their unconcious friend, growling very low with lowered down ears. Her feelers on her chest spreaded out and ready to attack as she cries out "Don't come any closer witch! I won't let you harm my friend again!" Seeing her tensed up like that caused him to stop, as he calls "Sonya calm down! It's me, Dante!"
Her ears perked up as a soft ring escaped her bell, all while hoping that using his real name that only they know would calm Sonya down as he slowly approached her. Conflict was in the widened eyes of hers, all while he hoped that she won't attack him. "Madeline escaped from me... she transformed into myself, but there is one thing she didn't realised. The rings she havessfrom the transformation are silver, not navy blue!" which was a big difference in his apperiance. Despite the hope that she won't attack him was Nox ready to defend himself.
She released a grunt as her claws digged down into the ground, her eyes closed down as he was almost close to both of his friends again. His silver eyes blinked to see so many various emotions from her "Please relax Sonya... don't turn into Lucina." which was another hint that it was the real one who's talking with her, as his face get's a soft blush when he recalled something. Telling that particular name caused Sonya to gasp out, as she finally was starting to relax. She letted her head hang down when mumbleing towards him "I won't be like Lucina..."
The Sylveons body slouched a bit forward as she started to pant softly from exhaustion, her paws shaking softly from the struggle that she had as she looked towards him in an almost vunerable state, ready to cry. The ears of the shiny male Umbreon lowered down as he walks to her, feeling very horrible to see her vunerable llke that and that she was about to cry too. Sonyas face casted downwards as she tried to hold her sobbing back, her voice getting a crack as she spoke up in a very honest tone "I-I'm sorry... I almost attacked you..."
she growled in frustration as she continued to mumble "What would of happened if I had just attacked you now? Yang would never forgive me... I wouldn't forgive myself either! C-can I... really control this..." Hearing her last phrase that were full of self doubt caused him to sigh a bit, before he nuzzles her cheek with his in a surprisingly caring way. "It's okay... Madeline is a cunning woman, and you just wanted to protect Yang from more harm." was Nox speaking up in a soft tone of forgiveness towards Sonya, who started to release some tears.
She didn't even noticed them until he leaped his tongue against her cheek, catching a few of them through that, causing her to look a bit lost and confused towards him. "I would have used Protect should you have attacked me with Moonblast... so you weren't going to harm me that fastly." was Nox speaking up as he softly embraces Sonya with his paws, causing her to gasp softly in surprise. Both their faces were starting to turn red a bit as he continued to reassure her "I know that You can control this Sonya... you're strong and not alone... don't ever forget that."
His face became even more red when he felt how her paws slowly wrapped around his body, feeling how she was her hugging him back tightly while her face was hiding in his neck for a moment. A soft sigh escapes him as he was glad to have calmed her down again, before looking quite confused when she pushed him a bit away. Seeing her embarresed look to the side when she frowned made him chuckle very softy. He smiled softly towards her while she had a soft blush in return "Space please. I still don't like being touched."
His heart was beating really fast, which was from the hug of the Sylveon when he comforted her as Sonya told him while she quickly whiped her eyes with her paws "You still need to find Madeline." "Shoot! I'd forgotten about her for a moment when I saw you like that Sonya!" was Nox telling her in return, which caused her blush to become a bit stronger because of that. While she shook her head was her bell ringing out in an almost happy tone, before she looks over to their unconcious shiny Mienfoo friend worriedly like he did too.
"I don't know where she went to... so let's get you and Yang back to the others, okay? That way is Yang even more safe, before I can continue on hunting for Madeline..." A little sigh escapes him as he frowns while he's going to admit a little bit of defeat in this situation "I hate to admit it, but I need your help to take her down Sonya. She's way too cunning for me to face her on my own." That phrase caused the Sylveon to look surprised back towards the shiny Umbreon, only to look uncertain while frowning about his request "But I..."
Her face turned toughful as she mumbled another "I..." He knew how ridiculous that request was, but she was the only one who he could fully trust in such a situation who's capable to fight. Sure, his little soul sister Lunette might be able to fight too as he was trusting her too, but she was having more trouble with her curse then Sonya with her old habits. That and the Sylveon was the only one who could keep him in check in return should things get out of control. Sonya sighted deeply in concern but also understanding Noxs request as she answered "Ok."
She got up on her back paws, carefully picking up Yang on her back, mindful of the legs of their friend as she spoked out "Lets be quick. We don't know how much longer the leaves will last in this gas or how far Madeline got." "Right... let's move out!" was he agreeing with her as they headed back through the gas cave towards the chokepoint the group was guarding. The shamanic leaves they had on their mouths were still working fine, but it was starting to loose it's protection strenght the more the time they stayed in the poisionous gas.
As soon as they reached destination were they all playing the shamanic enchanted leaves near their mouths in order to be protected by the poisionous gas. "We reached the chokepoint... stay alearted, while I'll head into it on my own to drive the witch out." was Nox speaking up muffled through the leaf as he looks to the others. "Are you sure about that Nox?" was Lunette asking him about his idea, causing Yang to look very worried towards him. "Y-You shouldn't go alone. T-This gas can also make it hard to see. W-What if you confront her and your alone?"
He looked over to her with a serious expression on his face as he speaks out "It's better then all of us going deepper into the cave. Keeping this chokepoint unguarded means that Madeline could slip away from beeing caught. Unless two others are volunteering to get the totems that is." Lunette shook her head softly, knowing what he ment with that while Marco looked around. Reef shrugged to that as he didn't minded it if he'll tag along with him or not, while the Peach on the other hand doesn't seem to be willing to go further into the cave then they did.

She stopped in her tracks and jumped a bit when a rather silent Espurr with blue eyes and a strange looking bell around his neck marching through the group. Yang seemed to be surprised and shocked at the same time, while the others looked rather confused towards the Espurr that also had a shamanic leaf on it's mouth as it instantly dissapeared into the deeper caverns that were filled with the poisionous gas. "D-did he just?!" was Nox saying rather shocked as the Sylveon suddendly started to rush after it, causing him to gasp a bit surprised from her reaction.
"Sonya w-wait!" was the shiny Mienfoo and him calling out at the same time. Sonya was about to vanish into the gas as she called out loudly "That might be her!" Causing Nox to blink a bit while Yang looked worriedly towards her direction. Reef slapped his paw onto his head as he calls out "Why isn't she never patient? She just agreed to not go alone."

Sonya sighs softly, then nodded towards him "Right." When the shiny Mienfoo was about to walk towards them did she gasped out in fear when she froze on spot, starting to shake again. Madeline reappeared as a Banette behind her, which caused the Eeveelutions to tension up as she narrowed her eyes at their friend "Nothing personal. Just need you to sleep for a bit." was she speaking out as she was quick enough to strike a type of Sucker Punch against the neck of Yang, causing her to yelp before falling to the ground unconcious.
"Yang!" were they both calling out as the rouge schoolar looked a bit apologizing, which then turned into a grin as she dissapeared into the gas again. The Sylveon leaped forward, then slided and kneeled next to the shiny Mienfoo with a very frantic look on her face "Yang?!" The shiny Umbreon placed his paw next to their friends neck, sighting a bit reliefed to feel her pulse. "She's still alive Sonya." She gritted her teeths and glared towards the direction the witch took off and got ready to chase her down as she yelled out "You coward!!!"
"Please stay with her, I'll get that cowarding witch for what she did to our friend, Alice and even you!" was he calling out as his rings shifted colors from navy blue to silver again, which he did on purpose this time as he moved out to search for Madeline instead of Sonya. Nox moved at least a bit away from them to a spot where he could freely use his full power without taking prisoners, as he looked around for the witch with a low, yet very notiable growl full of anger that was raging inside him "Come out from your hiding spot, coward!"
Madeline did indeed appeared infront of him with a big smirk on her face "Seems that the puppy wants to play now after I'd some fun with the Sylveon." Her form was still that of a Banette with some Zoroark features, while her eyes focused on his "I can see the same look in your eyes, just like hers. Are you from the same clan perhaps?" "Why are you so interested?!" was the shiny Umbreon responding to her as his silver rings flared up. "Then again, you're not like her... I can feel the dwelling witch power of yours inside your body."
A soft chuckle escaped her, as she flied around the male to be behind his back, only to whipser into his ear "So how about it? Wanna join forces with me, silver eyes?" Nox snarled to hear that, as he instantly tried to hit her with an Iron Tail, only to see how she was dodging it with ease as she humphed from his reaction. "What a pitty. You were full of potential for me, young Umbreon." with that did she actually transformed infront of him. His silver eyes could see how she started to morph from a Banette to something else.
The body of his was starting to shake softly as she did that infront of him, which he tried to stop with one, clear though *Stop it Dante, you've to defend your friends and take out the witch for them!* The body form of Madeline was changing drasticly, starting with her arms that were shifting to paws, which caused her to take a quardrouple position as she growls out deeply and a bit from the pain of doing a new transformation. The skin of hers shifted from beeing untouchable to touchable, as she got raven black fur from that as the silver rings appeared on them.
With that, did she opened her eyes towards the male shiny Umbreon, revealing that they were as silver as his. The witch transformed into Nox right infront of his eyes, who growled even louder because of that. "Just because you transformed into me will you not be able to stop me from attacking you, Madeline!" was he snarling in anger towards her. "Oh really? You clearly have forgotten one thing my dear." " was she speaking with a wicked laugh towards him, causing him to charge towards her with an Iron Tail aimed for her head.
"Whenever I'm transforming will i be able to use the same abilities you have." was she speaking out, as he surprisingly striked against a silver force field instead! Knowing that now did caused Nox to get even more angry, as he keeps on striking against the Protect Madeline was using from his form. Seeing him beeing despierate and too angry to realise that caused her to laugh at him "My my, you're a dense one aren't you? Give it up! You can't break through this surprisingly strong protection field that your form is providing for me~"
His growl became even deeper as he heared that, while she snickered from his reaction "I'll have so much fun fooling around your friends with this, thank you a lot for following me~" With that did the witch suddently dissapeared again, much to the displeasure of Nox as he speaks out very loudly in anger "GET BACK HERE YOU RAVEN MOTHER!" With worryness for his friends did he rushed back to the direction Sonya and Yang were as he kept growling in anger, all while as his rings returned navy black again, while she got silver rings instead.
The real shiny Umbreon got closer to the location of his friends, only to hear a broken ring of a bell as he arrives at them to see his Sylveon friend infront of him with narrowed violet eyes. She was standing in an attacking pose infront of their unconcious friend, growling very low with lowered down ears. Her feelers on her chest spreaded out and ready to attack as she cries out "Don't come any closer witch! I won't let you harm my friend again!" Seeing her tensed up like that caused him to stop, as he calls "Sonya calm down! It's me, Dante!"
Her ears perked up as a soft ring escaped her bell, all while hoping that using his real name that only they know would calm Sonya down as he slowly approached her. Conflict was in the widened eyes of hers, all while he hoped that she won't attack him. "Madeline escaped from me... she transformed into myself, but there is one thing she didn't realised. The rings she havessfrom the transformation are silver, not navy blue!" which was a big difference in his apperiance. Despite the hope that she won't attack him was Nox ready to defend himself.
She released a grunt as her claws digged down into the ground, her eyes closed down as he was almost close to both of his friends again. His silver eyes blinked to see so many various emotions from her "Please relax Sonya... don't turn into Lucina." which was another hint that it was the real one who's talking with her, as his face get's a soft blush when he recalled something. Telling that particular name caused Sonya to gasp out, as she finally was starting to relax. She letted her head hang down when mumbleing towards him "I won't be like Lucina..."
The Sylveons body slouched a bit forward as she started to pant softly from exhaustion, her paws shaking softly from the struggle that she had as she looked towards him in an almost vunerable state, ready to cry. The ears of the shiny male Umbreon lowered down as he walks to her, feeling very horrible to see her vunerable llke that and that she was about to cry too. Sonyas face casted downwards as she tried to hold her sobbing back, her voice getting a crack as she spoke up in a very honest tone "I-I'm sorry... I almost attacked you..."
she growled in frustration as she continued to mumble "What would of happened if I had just attacked you now? Yang would never forgive me... I wouldn't forgive myself either! C-can I... really control this..." Hearing her last phrase that were full of self doubt caused him to sigh a bit, before he nuzzles her cheek with his in a surprisingly caring way. "It's okay... Madeline is a cunning woman, and you just wanted to protect Yang from more harm." was Nox speaking up in a soft tone of forgiveness towards Sonya, who started to release some tears.
She didn't even noticed them until he leaped his tongue against her cheek, catching a few of them through that, causing her to look a bit lost and confused towards him. "I would have used Protect should you have attacked me with Moonblast... so you weren't going to harm me that fastly." was Nox speaking up as he softly embraces Sonya with his paws, causing her to gasp softly in surprise. Both their faces were starting to turn red a bit as he continued to reassure her "I know that You can control this Sonya... you're strong and not alone... don't ever forget that."
His face became even more red when he felt how her paws slowly wrapped around his body, feeling how she was her hugging him back tightly while her face was hiding in his neck for a moment. A soft sigh escapes him as he was glad to have calmed her down again, before looking quite confused when she pushed him a bit away. Seeing her embarresed look to the side when she frowned made him chuckle very softy. He smiled softly towards her while she had a soft blush in return "Space please. I still don't like being touched."
His heart was beating really fast, which was from the hug of the Sylveon when he comforted her as Sonya told him while she quickly whiped her eyes with her paws "You still need to find Madeline." "Shoot! I'd forgotten about her for a moment when I saw you like that Sonya!" was Nox telling her in return, which caused her blush to become a bit stronger because of that. While she shook her head was her bell ringing out in an almost happy tone, before she looks over to their unconcious shiny Mienfoo friend worriedly like he did too.
"I don't know where she went to... so let's get you and Yang back to the others, okay? That way is Yang even more safe, before I can continue on hunting for Madeline..." A little sigh escapes him as he frowns while he's going to admit a little bit of defeat in this situation "I hate to admit it, but I need your help to take her down Sonya. She's way too cunning for me to face her on my own." That phrase caused the Sylveon to look surprised back towards the shiny Umbreon, only to look uncertain while frowning about his request "But I..."
Her face turned toughful as she mumbled another "I..." He knew how ridiculous that request was, but she was the only one who he could fully trust in such a situation who's capable to fight. Sure, his little soul sister Lunette might be able to fight too as he was trusting her too, but she was having more trouble with her curse then Sonya with her old habits. That and the Sylveon was the only one who could keep him in check in return should things get out of control. Sonya sighted deeply in concern but also understanding Noxs request as she answered "Ok."
She got up on her back paws, carefully picking up Yang on her back, mindful of the legs of their friend as she spoked out "Lets be quick. We don't know how much longer the leaves will last in this gas or how far Madeline got." "Right... let's move out!" was he agreeing with her as they headed back through the gas cave towards the chokepoint the group was guarding. The shamanic leaves they had on their mouths were still working fine, but it was starting to loose it's protection strenght the more the time they stayed in the poisionous gas.
