After winning his second gym badge from Aqua, and after making a few changes to his Pokémon Team, the young coordinator continued his path of becoming the best. His keen jade eyes carefully scanned the gorgeous scenery of the forest, from it's magical aura, exotic plants, and to the ideas of new unique Pokémon crossing his path.
"I'm really enjoying this forest," Jalance stated, using his elongated legs to jump over a few fallen logs. "It's so peaceful here," he added, closing his eyes for a little while just to enjoy the gentle wind whispering into his ears, and the golden sunlight dancing upon his bronze hued skin. The dancing wind really felt like it was going to lift Jalance into the sky and allow his to walk on thin air, and the sunlight truly seem to make Jalance skin glow a little. As if this forest was really magical.

Soon a rustling was heard. A deer like pokemon was trotting through the trees and had eventually gotten lost. The young, yet strong, male deer had been running from something, but had outran it hours ago. He was stopping only to catch his breath; then he planned to run again, suspicious that whatever had been chasing him was still coming.
The circles encased in his antlers were said to be magic, and whoever looked directly in them would fall into a deep sleep, or in rarer cases, a coma. However, those magic grey balls were worth a fortune in the market, which was why Stantler was the most hunted pokemon species.
The deer was getting ready to run off again, but you still have a chance to confront it.

(I think you made a tiny mistake with the sprite Draagii ^^)
Jalance swiftly open his eyes once he noticed the young deer-like Pokémon wondering around in the forest, as if it was lost. Carefully studying the untamed pokemon, Jalance soon made a wise hypothesis that the Pokémon had been running from something, maybe a forest fire or either another wild animal.
He carefully pulled out his pokedex to get a little more of an idea of what he was about to encounter. <Stantler, the Big Horn Pokémon. It is said that staring at its antlers creates an odd sensation as if one were being drawn into their centers.> The pokedex stated in its computerized voice. "Hmm, I should be very careful with this one," Jalance whispered to himself.
First, tucking his hands behind his back to show the young deer that he didn't have any plans of hurting it, he slowly scrolled his way over to the Pokémon. "Don't worry I'm not going to hurt you, I just wanna help you," he spoken slowly, kneeling down to his knees to get eye leveled with the untamed Pokémon.

Its eyes kept a calm sensation to them as the deer stepped back, its history with humans warning it at once about the possible threat of danger. Even death, if dealing with the right type of human.
The Stantler could be a little more trustful, and since it was already nervous from being in an unknown part of the forest, it was finding Jalance's act a little creepy. Another hoof slid onto the soft grass below as it took another slow step away from the human. Its ears twitching all the while as it stared at the boy, not knowing what to expect from him.
But with Jalance as its distraction, it completely forgot why it was running around in the first place. Something had scared it, something was chasing it, then ended up running in agony. It wasn't even sure if the chaser was real or not, but it had felt the presence of another for a very long time. You could say that it was even driving the poor Stantler bonkers.

Jalance remain lowered upon the ground as he watched the Stantler take another slow step away from him, the young Pokémon seem not to want to trust the trainer. Deciding to keep his distance from the pokemon, his body remained still as if he was frozen inside a block of ice.
Looking at the Stantler running around in agony only made Jalance want to help it even more. "Come on Jalance, think!" He snapped to himself. still in a soft, whispery voice. Finally, deciding to think of something that might work, the trainer soon closed his eyes and began to sing a nice, tranquil song with his melodic voice. In hopes of calming the Pokémon down a little.

The Stantler raised an eyebrow at Jalance's singing, as if life was a musical. It simply wasn't normal. Not that it mattered, but it seemed to be calming down a bit. Listening to the words while rolling its eyes, stiff as a statue as it looked down on Jalance.
"Stan...." It muttered out, its ears twitching a couple of times in response to a chilly gust of wind. Refreshing compared to the summers humid air, but with all of the shade around them, it just sent a shiver up the deer's spine.
Now that it was actually thinking normally for the first time in a while, it stopped to look around the area. Its eyes hesitantly scanning every tree, every bush, every bird that it saw flying high up above it. It was important to know where it was now, in case it somehow ended up going in circles later on. Now was Jalance's chance to get close to the Stantler, or do whatever he wanted to do.

A smiled soon expressed upon Jalance's face as he finish the song. His voice seemed to have calmed the pokemon down, but still it wasn't going to rush into things. He carefully started walking back over to the Stantler, the wind blowing around his body as if he had some type of aura surrounding him.
"Hey little guy, what's going on?" He asked curiously, raising his hand slowly to rub the Stantler's forehead gently. "Don't worry I'm not going to hurt you, I just wanna make sure that you're okay," he added softly.

Feeling content enough to let Jalance simply pet its head, the Stantler's body visibly relaxed as the trainer talked. Whispering soothing words into its ears as the deer cooed in response. Flattening its ears as it nervously turned its head away to look at the surrounding area.
All of these trees, all of these bushes, they were always changing. No matter where it travelled, the same tree would look completely different from another angle. It wasn't even the same area anymore. All of this, it was trying to communicate to Jalance by psychically showing images of a moving forest. It was a weak picture, since it wasn't a psychic type, but it was there.
<I've been running for hours...> It muttered under its breath, lowering its head in disappointment. A sad sigh escaping its lips as Jalance kept stroking it, a comforting feeling. And then there was the feeling that it was being watched. By hundreds of pairs of eyes, it still felt strange being in this part of the Route.

Closing his eyes and focusing harder upon the image that the Stantler was trying to show him started to appear a little clearer, but still it was the best image. "So, you are lost," Jalance replied as he continued to stroking the deer a little more.
"Like I said before, I'm here to help you," Jalance explanied, caring removing his hand from the Stantler's head. "If you want I help lead you out of this Forest, it would be nice to have a little company," he added with a friendly smile.

The Stantler gave a gentle nod to Jalance's warm smile, and took a couple steps through some bushes. The dense forest was filled with strange mysteries, odd Pokemon, and a never ending scenery. It was easy to see how a Wild Pokemon could get lost.
But what if there was a higher force at work? Because indeed, something had been watching this Stantler from the rise of dawn. Three pairs of eyes surrounded the group, grinning to themselves as they shrouded their bodies with a mask of invisibility. Ghost Pokemon simply loved forests like these, because of the natural darkness within them. The three made it their favorite play area, taunting wild Pokemon and trainers daily simply to pass the time.
The leader of the three gave the others a thumbs up, a signal to start with a mind confusing Hypnosis. One didn't even have to look into their eyes into order to feel the effects of the Psychic waves bouncing into their brains. The Stantler was overcome with a drowsy feeling, slowing its footsteps as its eyes threatened to close shut. The illusion the ghosts were creating with the power of Hypnosis was actually making the tree's around the group appear as if they were moving. Arms sprouted from the sides, carved faces from within the trunk to look like a Halloween pumpkin, roots for legs, as they slowly approached the two.
"STANTLER STAN STAN!" The Pokemon began to panic, thrashing about in place as it attempted to run away. It was absolutely terrified of these illusions that the ghost Pokemon were pulling.

Jalance quickly started to feel a little dizzy once he felt the strong effects of the Psychic waves coming into contact with his body. Holding his head, closing his eyes, and falling to his knees were the only things that he could do right now. "What's going on?" Jalance asked out quiet voice as he gripped his head harder.
Once opening his eyes, and seeing all of the quirky illusions only made the Jalance panic a little more. After hearing the Stantler become bewildered again from the spooky illusions, Jalance slowly begun to regain control over his body.
"Stantler stay calm, I'm going to take care of you!" Jalance shouted looking over at the Stantler and then over at the pumpkins surrounding them. "Haru, I need your help!" Jalance shouted tossing a pokeballs unto the ground. A Crystal Ninetales appeared before the trainer, with his eyes full of questions.
<So, what's going on?> Haru asked, running over to his trainer's aid. "I'm not sure, but I think this forest is huanted or something," Jalance explained as he recovered back to his feet. "I need you help to calm that Stantler down over there," Jalance added swiftly.
Listening to his trainer's order the fire fox Pokemon quickly made his way over to the deer pokemon. <Hey snap out of it you're going to be okay!> Haru snapped. Meanwhile Jalance was wondering around their surrounding in hopes of finding some type of answers. "Hello anyone or anything out there, please come out!" He shouted loudly.

OOC: You were really asking for some trouble weren't you? XD Is this because I broke your heart? Amo-dear? Amo-love? Amo-hun? But no. I know you've been sleeping with Sprite-can. Everyone mixes us up, but you didn't. You knew you wanted her, and you got her. In bed. By having sex. Without a condom. Yes. Awful. Right? BIC: The Stantler's voices went down to tiny whimpers after Haru's counseling, but was much too frightened to open its eyes. Its whole body was trembling with the shock of seeing so many things out to get it, wanting it dead and out of the way. <I can't...t-t-t-the t-t-t-t-reees...They're out to get us...> It muttered out before slowly peeking through, surprised by the lack of movement. There weren't even sounds of trees shuffling among themselves. Shaking its head in annoyance, the Stantler stood right back up. Confused and embarrassed, but knew what it saw. The two Ghastly started cackling to themselves at the Stantler's reaction. Losing their focus on their invisible cloud as they appeared before Jalance. One look at themselves and they soon realized the game was over, but kept laughing anyways. <That was awesome!> One chortled to the other, playfully nudging it while the other nudged it back. Slowly stopped their laughs and giggles when they saw the Stanter's ticked off stare. Obviously this wasn't going to be good for either side, but the third ghost remained silent. Not bothering to join in unless something serious happened to either of its friends. A battle? Not serious. A Pokémon Hunter? Now that was. But Jalance didn't appear to be anything of the sort, so there was no worries.

OCC: So what if we had sex one or two times...
I'm still inlove with you Spirit!
Why can't you understand that? *Cries*
Oh yeah and I don't trip..Hoshi is only a little baby and on level 18! lolz
Bic: <Don't worry about it young one, we're going to take care of whoever's messing with you.> Haru asured the Stantler before walking over to Jalance side.
"Ha, I knew it all alone," Jalance giggled as he noticed the two crackling ghost before him. "So, you think it's funny teasing poor Pokémon like that?" Jalance added with his own malicious stare in his jade eyes. "How about we teach you two a thing or two?" Jalance asked taking a pokeball from his belt.
"Come on Hoshi, I'm going to need your help little fella!" Jalance shouted tossing a pokeball into the air. Soon a baby Jirachi appeared in front of Jalance, releasing a few small giggles. Being one of Jalance's most protective pokemon, Haru quickly sided with Hoshi. <Let's do this!> He howled.
Meanwhile as Hoshi and Haru went into their battle stance, Jalance decided to walk over to Stantler, just incase it was to freak out again.

OOC: I love how Sprite-can comes out of nowhere to post here. BIC: The Stantler gave a weak nod over to Jalance, appreciating his concern. Something it hasn't had in quite some time. When one was a Stantler, you were either in a herd, or you were a loner. In its case, it chose to be the loner. There was simply too much pressure in staying with its family herd, and had to escape. It was a competitive life that it had always frowned upon, constant battling between males, and the feeling of failure from when you lost. 'Seeing this battle begin...I guess it makes sense that I'm feeling homesick.' The deer thought to itself as the two floating orbs of gas sent glares at their opponents. Taking the sights in before finally coming to some sort of conclusion. Their bodies were glowing a hot red,a bright orange, and a mysterious yellow. Like a burning fire, they floated in mid air while chanting some kind of Curse at both Hoshi and Haru. It was a deadly attack, that was bound to set some sort of time limit on the battle. Not only were Jalance's team put on the path for pain, the Gastly's had their health cut in half. You could tell from their tired faces and constant panting after the attack was completed. The third Ghost Pokémon took a perch from up in the branches, not looking annoyed that they both used such a deadly attack so early in the battle. It was certainly risky, but those two were never battle smart. Placing a hand to its head, the Haunter watched the battle from the distance. Keeping itself amused with an occasional berry to eat, and by watching the show below it.

Jalance could tell that the Stantler was feeling a little blue, in hopes of cheering it up again he started to pet the deer upon its head like he did earlier. However. Jalance attention quickly faded and went back over towards the battle, watching the ghosts bodies glow in a hot red, a bright orange, and a mysterious yellow was kinda freaking Jalance out a bit. "What kind of attack are they using?" Jalance asked with a little worried look expressed on his face as he begun to take in the loud chanting.
"Umm Haru use Flamethrower, and Hoshi use Confusion!" Jalance commanded, quickly taking his mind off of the previous attack that the foes made. <Ninetales!> Haru roared, releasing a fiery, crimson blast of fire from his mouth, aiming it right at one of the Gastly. Meanwhile, little Hoshi was building up a good amount of psychic energy from deep inside his body, soon releasing it out of his star shape helmet, sending it of course to the other Gastly.
After watching both of his Pokémon attacks, Jalance soon noticed a painful look upon both Hoshi and Haru's face. Could it have something to do with the Curse?

The first Gastly swiftly made a dodge away from the Flamethrower, though it was kinda hard to make a dodge when the attack was chasing after it. Knowing that if it kept dodging like this, its companion would get hit as well. So instead of dodging from left to right, it began to dash straight forward. Using its entire body to let out a strong Sucker Punch at the Crystal Ninetails.
The other Gastly was left too weak to think about predicting where the Confusion blast would come from, so simply let the super effective attack hit it. For a couple of moments, the pressure was overwhelming. It managed to hang in there, except while making heavy breaths to show its exhaustion.
' I'm so weak...I can't keep attacking over and over. I gotta distract that Jirachi.' The Gastly reasoned as it began another type of chant. Its eyes glowing a dangerous blue as psychic waves were sent at Hoshi. A sleep inducing Hypnosis to distract the legendary for at least a couple of turns.

<What, I missed?> Haru asked looking around, a little shocked that his favorite move had missed its target. "Haru, get out of the way!" Jalance shouted, trying to warn the Ninetales about the on coming attack, but it was too late.
<Nineee!> Haru roared getting knocked back by the Sucker Punch, and what a punch that was with the effects of the Curse. "Come on Haru, use Iron Tail!" Jalance commanded, quickly leaping into the air, Haru's tails quickly glowed a metallic hue, and swifly lashed them out at the Gastly.
The playful Jirachi simply laughed at the dangerous blue lights aimming his way, poor little feeling didn't know what was happing. "Watch out Hoshi, he's going to put you to sleep!" Jalance shouted trying to warn yet another one of his pokemon, but like the first time Jalance was too late.
<Nighty, Nighty Daddy,> Hoshi replied in a sleepy voice before floating around in midair asleep. The curse still taking effect as the tiny Jirachi slept.

With such long and vibrant tails, it was impossible for the Gastly to escape without a whipped behind. Steel moves were not something that it was familiar with, but it was somehow similar to being attacked with a rock type move. That was the only thing it could think about as it weakly floated beside its comrade, except closer to the ground. It was getting very weak, and even the ability to Levitate was faltering. A sure sign of weakness.
Noticing the other Gastly's weakened body, the first one took pity upon it and offered to switch opponents. Switching around the healthier Gastly sent a crooked grin at Haru, before sending out a confusing orb of light at the Ninetails. A Confuse Ray, an attack that Jalance had experience with from a certain Gym Leader.
Meanwhile, the weakened Gastly didn't even bother with using such difficult moves. Easiest thing for it to try out was a Night Shade on Hoshi, one where defensive moves didn't even count. The only thing was that it was never that powerful, it just couldn't get any worse.

"Argh, I hate Confuse Ray!" Jalance shouted, quickly having a flashback of battling Aqua in her water gym. "Haru dodge that attack!" Jalance commanded, following his trainer's command the majestic Ninetales leaped gracefully over the orb of confusing light, missing it by a tail or two. "Ember!" Jalance ordered while Haru was still leaping into the air, soon a few blasts of tiny fireballs could be seen aiming right at the Gastly. Once landing back upon the ground the effects of the Curse quickly took control over Haru's body.
The Night Shade easily attack Hoshi without a problem causing a good bit of damaged upon the Jirachi's body along with the help of the Curse effects once again. "Come on Hoshi, get up!" Jalance shouted from the top of his lungs, he was hating to see his Pokémon getting defeated like that. Unfortunately for Jalance, Hoshi only replied with a small yawn.
