Ah, there she was. Haru had finally located her with his Aura. It shouldn't have taken longer than a few seconds, but what with the racket she was making, it took him almost an entire half-minute. <Hey, would you SHUT UP for a minute!?> the Lucario growled angrily up at the Vullaby. He wasn't even sure he wanted to help this stupid bird anymore. In fact, he was close to just blasting a Dark Pulse at her or something from down below. But Tyro wanted to help her, and he knew that blasting her out of the sky wouldn't help anybody but himself. So, tempted as he was, he resisted. He jumped up into the treetops and finally found the Vullaby with his eyes. <If you're looking for the damn eggs, they're down below. So shut that beak of yours already!>...Hm. Wasn't the best approach, but as long as it worked. At least, that's what Tyro was thinking. He had been about to hand the egg up to Haru to put back in the nest...but the Lucario had already jumped away. He sighed a bit, still holding onto the egg nice and gently, being extremely careful not to put too much pressure on it. He did know, however, that this Pokemon was rare. And he certainly wanted her to come with him, one way or another. ::Lucario:: Haru; Lv. 11 Jumps up to the Vullaby to get her to shut up and tell her where the eggs are

the vullaby was just worrying about her babies. she was first time mother! she didn't deserve to be yelled at for losing her child and actually caring about where it could have gone! for all she knew, it could be like one of those sitcoms. but, no. the lucario here yelled at her. well you know what? she could yell right back.
> i'm just worried where my baby is! < it came out as a shrill sounding, definitely something that would bust eardrums. definitely not something many would want to hear on one of those nights. or days. whatever floated their boat. it didn't matter, because she wasn't going to get yelled at right now. > you don't yell at people when they've lost their babies! < no, she wasn't going to let this go, this was going to drag on for many posts now.

The Lucario growled in irritation as the Vullaby refused to cut the noise. Now if he were a Pokemon that didn't have such sensitive hearing, he might not have cared as much, but as it stood...his ears felt like they were about to burst. Oh he was going to get this Vullaby to shut the hell up one way or another! But before he could whip out a Metal Claw on this damn bird, Tyro called up to them. "Haru, I know what you're thinking, and just try being nice for a change!" he called up. Of course, he wasn't sure if he was going to do that simply because he'd suggested it.... Haru wasn't exactly the kind of guy who did nice. Haru growled as his ears twitched at his Trainer's voice. He grumbled, <Fine....> to himself before looking at Vullaby again. <Alright, fine, I'm...sorry or whatever, would you PLEASE calm down now!?> He tried to keep his voice as calm and level as possible. It was just extremely difficult to do that when one's ears were about to explode. If this didn't work, then he was going to shut her up his way. And that was all there was to it. ::Lucario:: Haru; Lv. 11 Asking a bit more nicely to kindly STFU

The Lucario clearly had a way with women, judging from the way her face flushed a red color when he fail attempted at keeping his voice level and calm, as well as the way she could hardly keep herself from staring at him. Oh wait, that was wrong completely. She was furious, face red from anger as she found herself staring at him, imagining all of the ways he could painfully hang himself and never talk to her again. Feathers were ruffled up in annoyance at how he was treating her, especially since he didn't sound very sorry at all.
<Nevermind, you're just a bad dog. Go away, I'll find my baby on my own!> She huffed, frantically leaving the branch as she looked all over for her poor egg. Up, down, all around. Still nothing, she went onto another branch that she had already hopped on before in an attempt to keep searching, breath getting uneasy and quick as she panicked all over again.
She definitely wasn't the easiest Pokemon to handle, but she could be dealt with if you had the right touch. Sadly furry bait here didn't seem very cut out for the emotional approach, so more options would have to be explored.

Haru growled angrily. That does it...he's had it with this stupid bird. He held one of his arms out and three silver claws of energy emerged from the spike. But before he could do anything, he heard Tyro's voice call up. "Alright Haru, you need to come back down now! Clearly this isn't working." The Lucario grumbled a bit to himself and let the Metal Claw he formed retract once again. He glared at the Vullaby once more before jumping down the tree. He landed on the ground next to Tyro and stood back up, crossing his arms. <Hmph.... Stupid bird.> he grumbled. "Yeah...anyway, just come back. I'll find another way to deal with this." He returned Haru back into his Pokeball and sighed. Well, he supposed he had to re-think this whole thing. Who else could get up there and help him out here? There was no way he was putting Lan up there with all that vegetation. Max was definitely out of the question. Jason would probably end up the same way as Haru.... So how was he going to do this? He supposed all that was left was Tithonus. Well...it was worth a try, right? He opened a Pokeball and the Metapod appeared in the usual flash of white light. "Alright, Tithonus, I want you to go up there and see if you can't convince that Vullaby up there to come down to this shack here." He tapped the wall of the abandoned shack the egg nest was on top of. "She's looking for her eggs and can't find them down here. Think you could help her out?"Tithonus wasn't sure about this...but he really didn't have anything to lose. So he nodded as well as his stiff body would allow him to. "Good, then you can fire off a String Shot up into the branches and pull yourself up there, alright?" Tithonus nodded in response and did exactly what Tyro instructed. He fired a String Shot up into the branches above, near the Vullaby, and started to pull himself up by retracting the sticky thread. It wasn't long before he was up in the canopy with the bird. <Um...excuse me....> he mumbled, though perhaps a bit lowly. He was simply trying to get her attention right now. ::Lucario:: Haru; Lv. 11 Recalled before he could attack

The Lucario was ignored as she hopped to another branch, not even aware of the Metal Claw as she tried to frantically search for her baby. Her dearest loved child! Where could it be, oh, she was so new to this! She was relieved that the Lucario wasn't bothering her anymore at least, but her problem was not solved in the slightest. She shivered as it started to snow, feeling as if it got too cold, her egg would most likely die or end up mentally damaged. Maybe predators would end up getting it! Oh no, she was panicking hardcore now.
<Oh, oh! It's a Metapod! Um!> She heard his voice and saw him there, looking like a beam of bright light that descended from the heavens. It was suddenly clicking in her head; if she captured this Metapod and made her child eat it, after she found the egg, then maybe it wouldn't grow up to be a stupid child! It would live, things would be grand, and she would have her happy ending!
<Kaw kaw!> Naturally birds kawed, and she was true to her species as she tried to pounce on him. Yes, pounce. It wasn't even an attack she knew, but she tried to wrap her wings around him as she burst forward like a football player, most likely taking both of them off of the branches and onto the ground. Either the Metapod was going down with her, or she was falling by herself.

The Metapod didn't even stand a chance. Unfortunately for him, cocoons weren't exactly very mobile, and thus they had a hard time avoiding attackers. He felt the Vullaby's wings wrap around him, and he felt the two of them fall out of the tree. <W-wah...!> he cried out frantically. He was helpless in the Pokemon's grip, even if it wasn't all that tight. All of this preparation and both he and his Trainer had forgotten one thing...birds liked to eat bugs. Of course, Tyro had thought of this, but he figured a cocoon wouldn't be as appetizing as a worm...but that was obviously wrong. Regardless, the two Pokemon fell hard onto the ground not far from where Tyro was standing. Tyro looked over and sighed a bit. "...This certainly could have gone better." he murmured as Tithonus struggled against Vullaby's wings and tried to pull away, desperately trying to avoid becoming some baby bird's lunch. ::Metapod:: Tithonus; Lv. 9.5 Pounced on and dragged down to the ground

the vullaby made sure that she, hopefully, had a firm grasp on him as they flew through the air. this was going to be her child's lunch and that was that! the bird jumped up, and with a > gobble! < she hopped off to the side, metapod hopefully in tow. there was a crack in the rocks that she was headed to, the place where the mean puppy said that her child was actually sitting. waiting. probably crying because of the rumblies in his tummy that only metapods could satisfy. now if only she could get the metapod into smaller pieces, then she'd be able to stick him in little other bird's tummy.

Tyro saw the Metapod begin to get carried off by the vulture-like Pokemon and he sighed. "Sorry. Didn't want it to come to this, but I'm not about to let you cart off one of my Pokemon like that." He took a Pokeball off of his belt again. This one was the same he'd used just moments before. He had really hoped to avoid having to do this. But, to him, that Metapod was priceless, and he wasn't about to let this go. He opened up the Pokeball and the same Lucario as before, Haru, emerged in a flash of white light. "Alright, Haru, I stopped you before, but now's your chance. Go get her."Haru didn't need to be told twice. He didn't even answer his Trainer. His smirk showed enough of his gratitude that he didn't need to. He quickly used his ability to sense Aura to locate the exact location of the Vullaby and in which direction she was flying, as well as her speed. With the where and velocity in mind, he dashed forward, arms out to his side as he ran low, so as to decrease wind resistance. He then jumped up as he reached just the right spot and pulled out the same metallic, silvery, glowing claws from his wrist spike and slashed at the Vullaby. He was trying to slash her from below in such a way that he would not harm Tithonus, but would get an easy hit on his new opponent. ::Metapod:: Tithonus; Lv. 9.5 Helplessly carried away, frantic and fearing for his life

But luckily for him, he caught a break when she quickly tried to cut the Metapod into smaller pieces while flying at the same time. Multi tasking wasn't really one of her specialties so she quickly hit a high tree and dropped the Metapod. >Oh crap!< She said, giving ample time for Haru to catch up and actually stop her.
But for the Metapod... Um?

Tyro was quick to act. He had made his way closer to the small group of Pokemon at this point, following Haru but naturally, not at such a speed. He then pulled out Tithonus' Pokeball and held it out in front of him. "Alright Tithonus, come back to the safety of your Pokeball...for now!" With that, he struck the falling Metapod with the red beam of light. The Metapod then dissipated into the light and was quickly sucked back into the Pokeball. Could he have done this before? Not really. He didn't have an opportunity for a clear shot at the Bug Pokemon. But none of that mattered now. Tithonus was just fine. Haru grumbled a bit as his claws swiped nothing but rushing air. He had assumed that the stupid bird would just keep flying and not notice him. So much for that theory. Well, things seemed to have worked out just fine anyway. <Hmph.... Can I PLEASE beat on that stupid bird now?> he growled, turning around to look at Tyro again. "...I don't know. She's only trying to feed and protect her young...though she chose the wrong Pokemon to try that with." Haru grumbled in annoyance. He knew that this meant that he wasn't likely to get what he wanted. "...But I'll tell you what. If she attacks you, and you're not provoking her any further, then you can 'beat on her' all you want in self-defense. But ONLY in self-defense. Got it?" Haru hadn't even paid enough attention to nod in response. He had his eyes fixated on the Vullaby again. He just needed to see what she was doing. If she came back in a rage or something...then all the better for him. If she left them alone...well then perhaps he wouldn't have to put up with her anymore. That's all there was to it. ::Metapod:: Returned to the Pokeball
{No, they don't...but I didn't mean "Ability" as in the literal video game term. xD I meant the character trait of Lucario. They all have the ability to sense the Aura of other beings. While Haru may still be learning to cope with this ablity, there's no reason he can't use them for basics such as that.}

Nothing else had happened after that, but the Vullaby was left staring in a dfaze after running a little away from the Metapod. She had little trust for the human, especially with his crazy pack of Pokemon. They confused her, and the Lucario was just rude and wouldn't help her find her child. She cawed loudly as she tried to make the egg come to her, wherever it was. It had to be around here somewhere, so maybe it would roll to her at the sound of her voice.
<Baby! Please forgive me! My heart belongs to you!> She sibbed loudly as she paced back in forth behind two different trees in a hurry. One then the other, as if she was forgetting that she was checking the same places. Her breathing was becoming rapid as her frustration increased, having a hard time thinking correctly as any possible thing could end up being misinterpreted.
What do you choose to do, trainer?

Tyro sighed to himself a bit. So they were now back at square one...except with the single difference that the Vullaby was now lower, and in plain sight. He stepped in front of Haru and held it out. He had been holding it this entire time. The egg that had fallen from the nest from the beginning of this encounter. "Look, here's the egg I think you're looking for." he said simply, wanting to get this over with. He had had enough of this stupid little scene. He wasn't even sure he really wanted this Vullaby as much anymore. If he had her, then he'd have to put up with her for that much longer. But then again, she was still rarer than other Pokemon, so perhaps somebody would be interested. Eh...he wasn't sure, but he'd wait to see how everything went in the end.
Haru, in the meantime, was grumbling to himself again, but he was still holding his ground. He knew Tyro wouldn't approve of him attacking this Vullaby for no reason. Despite how much he wanted to.

VULLABY APPEARED !Oh baby youuuu, you got what I neeeed Vullaby resumed her panic, hopping frantically among the same branches although she was confused that the human was still there after all this hopping. Was he following her, quite possibly? How weird! She let out a twitter of apprehension at the thought, but remembered that this was no time for panic over a trainer! She had a baby to find! Hop one, look around. Hop two, hop three.
The trainer's sudden remark startled her, and she fearfully looked down to realize that he was holding her egg in his hand! He must've stolen it from her in the first place! She spread her wings and dove down through the branches, gaining a few leaves on her feathers. <Give me back my baby!> She screeched, reaching her claws to grab the egg out of his hand. She'd used Pluck on him, trying to harm the trainer in the process in her panic.

Tyro saw the Vullaby come down at him for the egg. At first, he was going to just let the vulture Pokemon take it from him. But then he noticed the speed of the descent. She wasn't simply going to take the egg from his grip. That much was obvious. And so, he moved out of the way at the last second, making sure his entire body was well out of the way of the Pokemon's Pluck attack. "Hey, relax!" he growled a bit, still carefully holding the egg in his hands. "You can at least let me put it down first."With that, Tyro kneeled down and scraped snow off of the ground below him. He wiped away enough snow until he could see the green grass below. he made sure that there was far more than enough room for the egg to sit, and he gently placed it on the soft grass. He hadn't wanted to set it on the snow, since that might hurt the egg a bit more. "There. It's yours now." he muttered, still a bit sour about getting Plucked at. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Tyro: Evades the Pluck and sets the egg on the grass for Vullaby to take

VULLABY APPEARED !Yeah k that's all bye The Vullaby just barely avoided the human's face, her claws feeling nothing, and she whirled around in the air just as the annoyed trainer snapped at her and put the egg down. That reduced her panic a little, and she slowed down more than before as she swooped towards the egg and carefully picked it up in her talons.
<My baby! Oh, thank goodness you're safe!> The bird cried out happily as she nuzzled her entire face on the shell in a gesture of complete bliss. Now she wasn't as scatterbrained as before. <Serves you right, thief! Hahaha!> She yelled towards Tyro before flapping away, not at all grateful that he had been watching her egg for her.
What a crappy encounter.

Tyro looked on as the Vullaby snatched up the egg and turned to leave. He was going to call out to Haru and have him stop that damn bird short and show her up for treating them the way she did. But in the end...he decided it wasn't worth the effort. Putting up with her, even for the slightest of more moments was not going to be worth whatever he could get for her. Plus, catching her would mean separating her from her unborn eggs, and that was something he didn't really feel like doing. So, he simply sighed and returned the Lucario to his Pokeball. "Thanks for the effort, Haru." he said as he did so. "Sorry you didn't get to show her what for." With that, he turned around and started walking back down the route, trying to throw the thought of this entire encounter out of his head. He'd had it. The Pokemon he had been hoping to find was no longer worth it. He wanted off this crazy route as soon as possible. Tyro now departs for the first city...at long last~
