Draidon stalked through the woods with as much stealth as he could muster. He tore down bush after bush with his claws, trampling plant life underfoot where ever he went, pretty much ruining any digression he had been trying to attain... though in all honesty, it was already kinda hard to not be noticed when you go tramping through the forest, leaving a path of destroyed vegetation behind you.
"How long are you gonna keep this up?" he asked the prescence he had felt behind him this entire trek.
"It's not very hard, you know..." the individual replied. "Especially when you're as loud and blatant as you seem to be... for Arceus sake, it's almost like you're leaving this path to make it easy!"
He stopped in his tracks at that, as did the one following him. He turned around and looked, seeing a Raichu step out from behind a tree, starring at him.
"So I can't lose you..." said Draidon. "Maybe I'll knock you out then... electric scum..." He brought his claws to the ready, preparing to unleash Dragon Claw when he noticed that the other Pokemon was just standing there, completely unphased.
"Stop the macho act, fool," The Raichu ordered. "I'm here to talk, not to whip you. Listen, you came into our turf in that cave and started sh*t, going around tearing up folks with that Dragon attack you seem to be fond of, beating them down... a lot of good friends of mine have been seriously hurt by you just now... I mean, really bad. I wanted to come out here after you and shock your punk self into oblivion, but they all said for me to try to control myself... so I'll honor their wishes..."
Draidon's mind drifted back to the events of the past hour as he listened. He had embarked from Castle Tempest, where he had just signed up yesterday, to find somewhere to train and get stronger... after a while, he had stumbled upon a cave filled with a few typical things, Geodudes, rogenrola, zubat, that kinds of things... but after he had gotten a little further in, he had started running into more and more electric types... and him and Electric types did not mix at all; like oil and water. But, in his defense, he was not the one to draw first blood, they had been. after that, things spiraled a bit and he had pretty much gone into a frenzy, beating down anything that moved or manipulated electricity... one thing had led to another, and he had eventually found himself standing in the middle of a monster house, surrounded by mons that were quite miffed at him for his... behavior. He had gotten a bit worried when that happened, especially when he had seen them combine their force to launch team attack at him... thank the lord Arceus that they had had terrible aim, because he probably would've been dead if they hadn't... and with them drained from that little stunt, he had made his way up to the exit... and this guy had started following him.
"So what's your point then?" he retorted. The Raichu's face took on a dark expression upon hearing that.
"My point is this, A** hole," he said. "You ever come back to our cave, and mess with our people again, and I will follow you out and KILL you. Got meh?"
"Oh...big words..." Said Draidon. "why don't you try it now then, buddy?"
"Because I specifically promised everyone that I wouldn't this time..." said the Raichu
"I think your scared..." Draidon smirked. "scared that I'ma whip you just like I did your friends. You should be used to it by now though, that cave being a mystery dungeon and all... though I don't know how you all aren't on the map..."
"Are you simple, or just d*mn stupid?" The Electric mouse was becoming more and more agitated. his tail flicked to and fro as sparks began to bristle his fur and crackle in the air. his voice became more of a snarl as he spoke next. "We aren't on the map because that's not a f*cking mystery dungeon! That's just a regular cave, you were simply to stupid to recognize that fact!"
"Coulda fooled me..." Draidon kept smirking. "What with you having staircases and all that jazz..."
"Those were put there by all us for the convenience of visitors, you moron!" A spark arced through the air and scorched a nearby tree trunk as the Raichu's anger rose higher and higher... Draidon saw an opportunity and took it, dashing forward and letting lose a duel set of Dragon Claw, closing in fast on the other Pokemon and slashing viciously, sending the Raichu flying backwards into the very tree he had scorched in his anger. He brought his hands back down to his side and walked over to the foe, standing above him as the electric type got up from the ground at the trees base and glared up at him with pure contempt.
"That's it..." the mouse stated simply. "GET WRECKED, FOOL!" with that, he unleashed a fearsome thunder attack, hitting Draidon spot on at such close range and in turn now sending him flying through the air, landing hard on the ground and breaking the earth upon impact. The dragon looked up weakly as the Electric wielder walked up and towered above him, their roles completely reversed from just a few moments before. The Raichu was panting in anger, like an enraged tauros might.
"And remember..." he said. "I ever...EVER, EVER see you in or any where near OUR CAVE again... and I will freaking KILL you!" he put an very noticeable emphasis on the word "Kill". He had apparently finished here, because after that, the Raichu walked off back towards the cave. Draidon's entire body was racked in pain as he lay in the small crater in the ground, paralyzed from the attack. Things were getting fuzzy... he was gonna faint soon, he could tell.
"Attonbitus..." he whispered to himself as he lay there helpless. "God...how I hate that name...but at the rate I'm going... I'll have earned it before long." he laughed at the bitter irony. his nick-name, Attonbitus, meant literally "thunder-struck" and here he was now... on the ground, alone and disabled... and he had been literally struck with thunder... again. It was while reveling in said irony, however, that he noticed a branch with Sitrus berries had broken off a tree and fallen nearby. If he could just move a little and get one to his mouth... well, he could get out of this...predicament.
"Come on..." he urged as he tried to break free of the status condition, feeling his whole body recoiling at his commands as a result. the pain was exquisite. But he didn't give up... he needed dem sitrus berries. "Come on!!!"
...
Several minutes had passed... and still nothing.
"COME OOOOON!!!!" he roared in frustration as he finally gave up on the task. this was just great... only a day after joining castle tempest, and he was in a situation that would probably prove detrimental... he just prayed that no one else from the castle happened to come nearby... He honestly didn't feel like losing this gig he had found just the other night. the world was getting hazy. he couldn't hang on anymore, he could feel it. His limit had been reached and them some.
