Rico was on guard now as his sister recovered from her phobia spell. When he heard voices and rustling behind them, he immediately moved to the rear, moving into his Counter stance. He scanned the area with his Aura (which wasn't very strong since he was still learning to control it). However, what he sensed wasn't an enemy. He opened his eyes and looked down the path, seeing Zaru, Milton, Celty, and Devon. [color=0072bc]"Phew, it's just you guys. I thought we might have been getting flanked or something."[/color]

He looked around, making sure there was no one else in the area. He saw none, and didn't exactly feel anything hostile nearby, but he didn't relax. His sister was still semi-freaking out. [color=7ea7d8]"No... no spider... brave... have to go..."[/color] She couldn't even form a proper sentence at the moment. Her friends were around her, trying to comfort her and help her, but it wasn't really working.

[color=9e0b0f]"So there isn't anyone here... except the great Lord of the Skies up top there I'll bet. Wonder what happened to all the guards..."[/color] Said Bisharp, looking around inside the massive cloud tower. [color=gray]"Who cares? Makes it easier for us to make it to the top!"[/color] Said the Machamp. [color=6ecff6]"Hmm, Someone Powerful was here, recently."[/color] Said Beartic, looking at a scorch mark that had somehow remained on the cloud walls.

Suddenly a loud voice boomed through the tower. [color=007236]"So, you have returned, and have brought more! Has slaughtering my guards and bringing chaos to my domain not satisfied your appetite, you monster?! So be it. I await your arrival, you trespassers, on the top floor, where you will meet your end by my hands!"[/color]

On the floor with Valentine and Drago, Hippowdon simply looked upwards. [color=fdc68a]"Well, he knows we're here now. No sense in being sneaky anymore I guess."[/color] He said with a grumble, moving forward up the next flight of stairs.

[h3][color=a187be]The Master[/color][/h3][b][Infinity Mountain Peak][/b]

[@Iatos]
It had been about an hour since they had departed, and The Master was growing impatient. Then he felt a presence below him. A strong presence. He reached out with his Psychic Power and felt into his mind, his heart. Such darkness he felt, emotions twisting and turning, but overall being ignored. He felt like one who had looked death in the eyes, and spat into them. He liked this...

He shot a telepathic message to this being. [i][color=a187be]"You. You trespass on my current domain. Leave now, or I cannot tell you what will happen to you."[/color][/i] He partially meant what he said, but more it was a test, to see if he would stop and turn back, or continue on undaunted. If he turned back, then he was not worth his time. If he continued on, he may prove to be a valuable asset.
