Welcome to Gaia! ::

When the two rounded the corner, they would come across a few doors on either side. They would all be unlocked if tried, one of them being a pantry, and a couple of them being closets with various supplies, but there would be enough room for both in the pantry, but one or the other in the closets.

On Amelie's end, she would scowl as she heard their footsteps as they ran away, lifting up her dress enough to where she wouldn't trip down the stairs. "Call them!"

"Yes, Amelie!" A whistle would come from the other maid as she followed Amelie down the stairs, the woman running a different way when she left the stairs. Amelie would continue to follow after Blizz and Tristan, though fairly cautiously, as she herself was unarmed at the moment.

Amelie would round the corner as the door was closed, just missing the motion of their door. "Hm... Which-" Her words would be cut off in her throat as she caught notice of the Galvantula. "What is that creature, and why would you let out such a thing inside," she'd shout, backing up a few steps. "Of course, I wouldn't have her here... Where are those birds!" Amelie would look around, refusing to let her gaze completely leave the hallway, but at the same time, waiting almost expectantly for something.

Poor Amelie. While she was spritely for an elderly woman, her reflexes weren't on par with them, as she couldn't get moving before the Electroweb landed. A pained shriek could be heard when it landed, shocking the poor woman as she collapsed.

"Amelie," the younger maid shouted, coming into Amelie's view as she reentered the previous hallway. A shrill whistle could be heard, followed by a massive amount of flapping wings as the birds she was ordered to summon flew in around her, almost each region being represented at least once. A Noctowl would use a Gust attack while a Talonflame would fly forwards, tucking its wings in for a Brave Bird attack on the bug. The rest would hang back as they would wait for anything else to show up.


Elsewhere in the manor, Aile would be out of the shower and dressed, halfway done putting concealer over a group of bandages on her right cheek when she heard the shriek and subsequent yell. "Oh, you have got to be joking..." She'd burst out of her room after grabbing her Pokéball belt, muttering curses under her breath.

The maid would freak out as Amelie was getting dragged away by the spider, pointing in the direction Galvantula was going. "After it, it has Amelie!" The Talonflame didn't need any telling twice, as it continued its chase. A Male Unfezant would use Tailwind to give the rest of his allies a boost in speed to catch up, which most of them did. However, a Pidgeot and a Fearow that were at the back of the flock would take notice of the two leaving and take off after Blizz and Tristan. The maid, watching the two birds take off after the hybrids, would turn her head around quickly, in both directions, unsure of where to go. "I, ah...."

Amelie, for her efforts, was weakly trying to get out the Elecroweb that Galvantula had so kindly wrapped her in, the electricity not helping her out in any way.


Aile would quickly wind up in the foyer, damn near jumping down all the stairs at once. A few sharp notes would come out of her mouth, followed by a long trill as she whistled. About a minute later, Tatooine show up, landing by her side. "Tati, we have company. Ready to go find them?"

"Gyoooon," she cried out, slightly sadly. The Flygon had a feeling about where this was heading, and she wasn't sure about it. Still, she was going to follow her trainer no matter what. She wouldn't make her do horrible things, right?

The maid shrieked as she was shoved out of the room, staring at the doors as they were locked. "This is not good..." She looked around before running off, trying to find something or someone to help her. When inside, Blizz would find that the walls were filled with a multitude of books, and there were a few desks in there as well as a large table. The table and most of the desks were empty, but one desk towards the back had a tablet and a few papers on it. It looked like the desk might have had a set of drawers on it, on the back side. That might be a good place to start looking.


The Flash went off and worked exactly as Tristan wanted it, giving the boy enough time to get past Amelie and the Talonflame, as well as stopping the two birds on his tail. The Fearow and Pidgeot would begin to give chase again when their sight cleared until a whistle would cause them to come to a stop and turn around. Aile, Tatooine, and the other maid were running up to them, stopping when they reached Amelie and Ifreeta. “Amelie, are you aright? Is anything broken,” the redhead would ask, kneeling down next to the elderly maid. She would begin to help take off the webbing around Amelie as she got her reply.

“Oh, Lady Ally, I’m glad to see you out. I’m sorry, though, I didn’t mean to have you come out. I think I at least have a twisted ankle, if not something actually broken. After all that electricity, it is really hard to think completely straight…”

“What happened, Amelie?”

“Oh, I was coming downstairs with Bianca here, when I noticed that here were two intruders. One of them was that former hybrid noble, and the other was a much younger one, small, looked like an Electrike, I believe. We chased them down when they rounded a corner and disappeared from sight.. The only… thing they left behind was a large yellow spider creature. That thing threw a web at me, which was charged with electricity, and-”

“I think I get the picture from here. All of you stay put, or actually, get Amelie somewhere safe. Tatooine and I will go after Tristan. Let’s go, Tati.” The Flygon nodded as she took off after her trainer, leaving the three birds and two humans to find a place to hunker down at.


The Galvantula would find its hiding spot a good one, as when the birds flew in and looked around, they wouldn’t find hide nor hair of it. They would hover around for a moment, looking, then flew off as a flock once more, deciding that the bug wasn’t there. For now, the bug was safe.

The one drawer Blizz searched through on the desk wouldn’t have much in it outside of a few other papers and Aile’s scorched almost beyond recognition SNAG. The other drawers wouldn’t yield much else outside of one Blizz would find was locked. That was probably where any other items of interest would be. The possible boon for Blizz? It looked like a simple, if old, lock, and probably easy to pick or break.


Aile and Tatooine would round the corner and slow down when she saw the boy poke his head out of the dining room. The woman crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes, while Tatooine would look at Tristan with a sad set of eyes.

“So. Tristan. You and your father show up at my home, uninvited, cause havoc, and quite potentially broke a seventy-something old woman’s ankle, at least. I’m surprised she didn’t have a heart attack, as well, with everything your Galvantula put her through. Now, before we destroy my family home with a battle, can I ask just why you two are here,” she would ask, her voice beginning to rise. She’d rub her right cheek, only to remember she only half covered up the bandage with concealer, which that only added to her fury. “I was planning on heading back out as well, too, but you lot are delaying all that as well!”

“Gyooonn…” Tati would flutter over and put a claw on her trainer’s shoulder, hoping to get her calm down some. The Flygon had been with her long enough to know that she would never make any good decisions while she was angry, and she also didn’t want to fight anyone she considered a friend. Tristan included.
