Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well that explains why your brothers were hell bent on keeping me out of the loop." Freth said, crossing her arms. "Though, I'm suspecting there was a reason why Ein abandoned such a project. Probably something that would be more worth his time. I'd imagine other chi studies considering what he got his hands on later. With all said, though, you guys couldn't have came up with a better idea than just the whole 'fighting fire with fire' cliche? I mean, you do realize that clashing Shadow Pokemon is nothing more than a war of attrition, right?" she then asked. "For that matter, why would such a project involve parts of the relic? That thing is supposed to purify a Pokemon, not the opposite. And even IF you actually accomplish what you set out to do, if your intent is to stop Ein, what makes you think he wouldn't send one of his own cronies like that Sharpedo Hybrid or Zapdos hybrid after you to tear your project out of your hands? Because look at it this way, if I managed to sniff you all out relatively easily, what makes you think he wouldn't? You'd be handing him the potential to put a stranglehold on everyone, perhaps for good, yourselves included."

Yep...this guy was Resix's brother. Completely out of touch with reality, for one. Go half-way on the purification? If she recalled right, that's not even possible. Shadow is still shadow until its purified. There's no half-way to it. All in all, he's just torturing that Absol back there for instance until it finally does get purified, probably by accident on the part of Yellowsix. There's really no keeping a Pokemon under control, because once their emotions flare up, that's it. Game over. Worse still, if she recalled correctly, and if Tristen's Blitzle was any indication, the emotional swings to move into Hyper Mode happen more frequently the closer to purification. He's literally got a living time bomb in a cage back there. All it'd take is the Absol to get a second wind and feel slighted to go on a rampage on him. Though humorously, that would probably mean Hexagon Brothers would end up getting a name change to Pentagon. No complaints there.

With all said, however, that does give her an idea...as much of an idiot Yellosix was, he may have stumbled onto something. Something that she could use. Something that Snagem could probably use. "...you know though...I got...a question...now that you got it to my attention...how long have you been working on that Absol back there? And how far along is it in your plans?"

And just like that, any redeeming value that Yellosix had just went straight out the window. After a long winded sigh she ended up saying one thing. "Yep." The bomb went off. Crap. Before she knew it, the lights went out. "Well that isn't concerning at all." Freth then said, sarcasm present. She was hoping to avoid this in all honesty. With as worn out as that shadow Pokemon was earlier, she was hoping just to get it in a ball and not involve her Pokemon. Last thing she needed was to get another Pokemon infected, let alone hers. Worse still, an Absol of all things. In this place? In the dark? "So, how do you value your chances?" she then asked Yellosix.

Freth gave a sigh, took off her pack, and pulled out her SNAG machine, strapping it to her arm. "Just one." Freth said as she slips her pack back on. "It's either this or its someone's throat by that Absol. More than likely yours considering."

Freth wouldn't give any sort of a response to that one, leading the way regardless. She made her way down the hall, back the way she came, lighting a Ice Beam up in her hand for a source of light as well as a means of defense if the Absol tried to come after either one of them. Her senses were on high alert...the sheer presence of that thing was letting her know that this thing wasn't to be trifled with, compared to earlier.

Freth's instincts tripped, but before she could react, the Absol came after her virtually almost as if it was a white blur at first. The impact however, was even worse than she realized. The Shadow Rush attack smashing into her and she flew back, hitting the floor, and skidding on her back for a few feet. She ended up giving a hard cough, having the wind knocked out of her rather harshly. She grimaced, curled up a little for a second as her gut ached from the blow. "...*cough, cough*...Blast it..." Freth moaned out. She then sat up, gaining a second wind, then charged an Ice Beam in the palm of her hand, lighting up the area once again to take aim at the Absol and taking a couple of shots.

Freth managed to get back on her feet then looked around as the Absol disappeared again. Her instincts tripped once more, this time this Absol wasn't getting the better of her. When the rush came forth, she manages to catch the berserk Dark type. However its very presence, let alone the shadowy aura from its Shadow rush attack, was searing away at Freth, her hands in particular feeling like they were on completely engulfed in flames as she tried to fend it back. "AUGH! GET OFF!" She shouted, tossing the Absol away into another machine.

"It's not like I'm-wait a second, why are you using your Ampharos!? Are you trying to get it shadowfied too!? Ein's Shadow Pokemon are a biological weapon! They're actually contageous to Pokemon like the Pokerus! Only this isn't a good thing!" Freth said, looking back towards Yellosix. This guy's stupidity knows no bounds apparently.
