Omega watched closely. This was a strong Pokemon, maybe as useful for them as the rock snake. He watched as Thel approached it, the once lizard most likely not even realizing he was facing a hunter that managed prey entirely by itself. His nose twitched as the thought that they might be its prey crossed his mind, though he tried to chase it out and trust Thel to handle the situation.....actually that might be a mistake in and of itself.
Still, he stood back and waited for the situation to change, not wanting to start something with Thel when there was a powerful hunter inbetween them.

The Heracross charges, horn down, ready to gore and flip Mmip, it's cry like a forced whisper even as it's thick legs thunder along.
9EH2oZO11d20 Horn Attack Vs. Mmip 2d6+22 Normal Physical
The hunter stared into Thel's palm for a long moment, nose continuing to twitch. Using its scythe like horn, it nudges the hand away and starts past him as though it tires of the interaction. Perhaps of being crowded? Motives uncertain, it looks at the pair of humans over its shoulder and starts languidly towards the exit of the cave.1d20·2d6+22

Poor Mmip does not take the attack particularly well and flails her little fronds in frustration. She hops to the left of the Heracross and tries to soak up the sun so as to not immediately be knocked out by the very next hit she would take.
Synthesis and Splash! Mmip gains 21 HP!
Muku on the other hand is ignorant to just how much this was going to potentially hurt and leaps into the fray! She immediately unleashes a furious scissor kick, one that no prey could escape!

Hmmm? Thel's not sure what he expected to happen, or what is happening, or anything like that. He's mainly going on gut instinct, and his gut says... well, first that he's kind of hungry. He should eat at some point. But that's getting off track. The other instinct is to follow it. Maybe that's what it wants, maybe that's what it doesn't. He isn't sure. So, slowly, he goes to follow the other Pokémon, preparing to stop if it shows signs of not wanting that.

"Hmmm Gutsy" Omega says as Thel follows the hunter "offering yourself up to a solitary hunter. Well, maybe it will be easier to capture once it has feasted on you" He laughs at the idea before beginning to follow "I think the word the humans use for that was a joke. I will keep it from eating you. For now"
This hunter will be helpful to take on the massive rock snake. It will take everything they have to get it, including Thel, much to Omegas annoyance.

There is a distinct meaty crack as angry lines split along the beetle's carapace where Muku's powerful thighs impacted the Pokemon. It hisses in pain before turning that big horn on the human. (Heracross takes two injuries from Aerial Ace) 4kKOkiqr1d20 Horn Attack Vs. Muku 2d6+22 Normal Physical
Injured as it is, it can't swing the horn as hard as it needs to, a clawed hand resting against the Pokemon's side.
The Absol begins up a narrow path along the cliff face, with no further apparent interest in the humans. They had proven that they were harmless despite cornering it, and it had been permitted to leave. No fight would be forthcoming from the loner Pokemon.

Thel just watches as it wanders off, before turning to Omega. "Well... that was interesting." It was a new experience for him. Not as a hunter, or one of the hunted, but... as something else. There was a strange dynamic that went on with humans. "We should probably head back to the others, though."

A warbling cry looses itself from the confines of Muku's throat, as she fears, but is not actually hurt by whatever the Heracross was doing with it's horn. It was tired! Weakened! This meant that she had to use the ball right? Right!? Well, maybe.
((Mmip Splashes, but otherwise nothing at the moment.))
Muku goes for the capture! - AC 6 - D9usHyxA1d20+3 AP Spent!

Omega watched dumbfounded as Thel let the other hunter walk away. This was their chance to collect a powerful creature onto their team and instead he was just letting it go! With a growl he attempts to pounce onto the beast as it wanders off, but his motor skills still aren't what they used to be, and he finds himself slipping on a rock as he lands next to it with a growl, attempting to show his dominance. 2 vs AC 4 for Grapple so it failed

Muku captures a Heracross! The giant tasty beetle disappears into the ball with a surprised noise, it rocks several times before becoming still. Em approaches the girl tentatively and smiles in surprise. "Wow, you really did it on your own..."
(Heracross is a Level 5 Hardy Female with Guts, it has Pursuit as an Egg Move, and will learn Rock Blast at level 20. The Baby Template reduces its combat statistics by 4 each. This penalty reduces by 1 every 5 levels until it reaches 25.)
The young Absol gives a little hop out of the way of Omega's awkward lunge and swipes at the boy with its under-developed horn!

Muku clutches Mmip close to her chest, squeezing the beautiful creature tightly in celebration once their victory becomes apparent. "You did good! Good! It was tense there for a second, but ooh! Yeah! We did it!" She sighs. Mmip for her part is all smiles in spite of the major bruising and slight internal bleeding. But that was ok. Plants were pretty chill about the whole bleeding from the inside thing. There was no reason to get all sappy about it. Hah! Sappy. If only humans could understand plant based puns...
The bird trainer was just bending down when Em approaches, so with a little excited hop, she rises up to greet her. "Nope! Muku hunted this prey down with Mmip! Mmip helped too! Didn't you?" Mmip giggles softly. She did not help, but she appreciated being involved in the conversation nonetheless. Happiness washed all over Muku, but she had several important somethings on her mind.
"Do you think this is still prey if I'm not going to eat it?" She ask, tilting her head to the side. "I think that's what Omega would call it, but I'm not sure if that's a good word for us anymore. Oh, and this one needs a name too... Kiiyah! It was already hard enough giving Mmip a name..."

Omega flashes a predatory grin "Alright Horn, that's the kind of fight I want to see from my pack." He throws the ball containing Fang on the other side of the hunter, the Shinx coming out in a flash of light "Fang, get it while it's distracted" As he calls out to his Pokemon, Omega tries to get a better handle on his new form. Rising up from his crouched position he twists his body as his fist connects with the enemy, before Fang pounces on it with a flurry of strikes from his paws.

"What're you doing?" Thel cries, as Omega leaps for the Pokémon. The horned one rightfully defends itself, but... this was all going so well before. "Stop it!" he says, as he runs towards the fighting. He isn't fast enough to stop Omega from punching the creature, but he is able to dash at the other human's 'mon, tackling it out of the way of the wild Pokémon. It's a lot of teeth, claws, and scratches, and he wonders in retrospect if this is really the best idea... 15 to intercept Struggle, spending AP, taking 33 damage and 2 injuries.

"Haha... of course Mmip helped." Em replied cheerfully, fishing through her backpack and producing a small white box with a red lid and a Pokeball insignia at the center. "Here, I asked Joy if she could teach me a little, I can try to take some of the hurt away from Mmip, if that's okay..."
Honestly the Hoppip was just happy for all the attention it was getting, squealing and wriggling in Muku's arms. This was the best day! It never stopped smiling despite how hurt it was. "I don't think humans eat Pokemon... so I'd guess they aren't prey anymore?"
"Is it gone?" Kursz peeked out from behind his tree.
The Absol hunkers low, frantically glancing between the three bigs towering over it. It knew it had been struck, and saw the smaller of the two protect it. It bolts up the trail with a frightened cry.

"Of course! And I guess that makes some sense. Maybe we'll find a better word than prey later!" Muku replies, releasing Mmip from the crook of her arms. There wasn't *too* much danger of Mmip blowing away since they were so close to the trees and the hills, so she didn't really have to hug her so tight anyways. Still. Mmip was such a happiness ball! Happiness makes Muku happy! Happy Muku is best Muku!
Except someone wasn't happy. Kursz wasn't happy! Muku's head jolts towards Kursz with a vile grin. "Aha! NOPE! Muku caught the creature and now it coming with Muku! Muku will teach Hornise the Starly way of war!"

In a moment his combined assault was ruined as Thel jumped in the way of his Fang. He whipped his head towards the other now human, his eyes feral and his teeth bared " Fool, we had it!" As the creature begins to run away he scrambles to pull one of the Pokeballs from his belt before throwing it wildly towards the hunter, hoping to catch it " We need all the strength we can get, and you let it get away! What kind of hunter are you!?" 5 on the Ac for the Pokeball with a 77 on the d100 roll

Ouch ouch ouch… "It shared its domain with us," Thel says, pain evident in his voice, "And, as shown, it could have attacked us." Yeah, really not the best idea to take that, it really hurts. "If it... didn't want to come with you, why would you want to force it to be by your side? Such a thing would.. only spell trouble. Strength without loyalty is... worthless. And as for the kind of hunter I am, I was not planning to eat it. And as it was not planning to do the same to me, there was no reason to fight." The wounds are stinging a little bit less now, (or maybe that's just his imagination,) but, man, that'll smart for a while.

"Do you have to?" Kursz complained softly, whining seeming odd coming from something so big. "We should catch small things that don't have giant horns, and teeth, and stingers..." The boy fidgets, not having released his Pokemon since he caught it.
The Absol stops to cry loudly down the path at the pair, rounding a bend after the ball misses it. If capture is to be attempted, pursuit will be required up the mountainside.

Annoyance becomes manifest in a noisy "Kiyayayayaa!" that screeches forth from Muku's throat!
"It's no good to be cowardly!! Kursz must be strong, strong enough to beat the baddest of bugs and bad enough to train the strongest bugs! Gain strength from fighting the strong foes, and usurping their nests! Kiyiyiaaa!" Striking a menacing pose, she smiles broadly. "I think we should find you a second partner too! That way, you can learn to fight with your wingmate to get another wingmate! And then you can fight even the biggest flocks without fear, just like Muku!"
And then, she stops and ponders. An observant one might watch as Muku's eyes grow strangely distant, distant to the far hills where the Pidgey and Starly fly. Feathers cover the soiled earth where heaps of bird soldiers lay. The 42nd Starly-Pidgey turf war might be over, but it would never be forgotten.
One day. Revenge.

Omega shook his head "I held no loyalty to Alpha or Beta. I stayed because they were stronger than me and I knew that, they SHOWED me that" He winced and rubbed his neck, looking far more....timid than usual.
He grumbled and watched the Absol run off, before stalking forward and grabbing the ball off the ground "I will show this hunter that I am stronger than it, and it will follow me for that reason" With that he kept moving up the path, gesturing for Fang to follow behind him.
