Swiggity Swagsire [Mod] (Rhoan/Sharada Quest)

[Tyger]

"This mission will test of whether or not you possess the skills necessary to execute orders and missions as a team, as this is a two person operation. Infiltrate Blue Moon Falls Reserve..." Rhoan paused from reading her orders to look at Tyrana for a moment. "Wait, isn't that the place that Ranger with the Torterra was?" She had gone after a Quaggie in a reserve outside of Cherrygrove, and had been tailed and spotted by one of the rangers that worked in that area. It was actually he that gave the suggestion for Team Rocket, albeit accidentally. Her Charmeleon merely shrugged, uninterested, so Rhoan continued on.

"Hmph. Infiltrate Blue Moon Falls reserve and knock out a Quagsire. Return the restrained body to Rocket HQ for your reward." There were other things written, such as 'failure is not an option' and something about not getting caught, but these were all give-me situations. Of course you shouldn't get caught, and of course you shouldn't fail. If you fail, it meant you either didn't try hard enough, or you weren't ready for it. Cherrygrove was leagues behind her at this point, so why bother with worrying about a simple, stupid Quagsire? "Dumb creatures anyway..." She murmured under her breath, folding the orders and tucking them into a cargo pocket.

The Quagsire wasn't the hard part. The hard part was working together. If there was any sneaking or stealthy measures involved, it appeared as though Rhoan might have the upper hand. The last thing she wanted to do was carry the team through an ordeal. However, the second last thing she wanted was to be carried through the mission. "The Red Tiger doesn't work with others. The Red Tiger stays away from others, in order to ensure victory. Other people slow me down. I can take on a Quagsire.." More mutterings to herself. "And they took the liberty of assigning me a partner. We're meeting tonight near the Reserve. Good call. Meeting in Cherrygrove puts us close to prying eyes. Outskirts is a good call." Tyrana snorted and turned to Rhoan. She wouldn't be much use this fight, but at least she could accompany if things got hairy.

---

In the cover of night, Rhoan took to the route to get to the outskirts of the Reserve. The only Pokemon outside of it's ball was Reaver, and she was content enough to stay hidden in Rhoan's hair. Easy enough, right? "Outskirts are secure. Reaver, establish a small perimeter where we'll be entering. Set traps just in case people spot us and decide they wanted to tail." Rhoan grunted, flicking her hair to the side. It exposed her scar, but gave the kinetic energy needed for the Joltik to move with the momentum and quickly disappear into the night sky. Being tiny had it's uses. Reaver could set up electric web, as well as standard web, traps that would give tailers and those who wanted to interfere difficulty. Hopefully her partner wouldn't be stupid enough to step in them. The Red Tiger kept her hopes up, though. Not that they'd step in them, but that they'd be competent and useful. Having had bad luck in the past, it would most definitely be a relief, for sure. Approaching the rendezvous point, Rhoan did her best to melt into the shadows. Reaver began to crawl up her leg, and Rhoan allowed her back into her messy mane. "Good job."

During her training in the depths of Ecruteak, a more than familiar ting alerted the brunette, known as Sharada, to her Poketch. Lifting the device strapped to her wrist, she had set a particular tone to notify her of Rocket specific messages and that was exactly what she had just received. Eyes scanning the message, her shoulders drooped as she read the digital dossier which held the information she needed to fill her in on the specifics. But this was something she had never participated in before and her expression gave away the fact that she was far from happy. Being a spy of sorts in the first place, she tried to keep interaction with other Rocket's to a minimum or atleast if it would benefit her ultimately. So reading that she was placed in a mission which required teamwork, it made her more than a little worried. "Hmph. Typical. Not even given a choice..." Not able to back out, she had little choice but to comply. Lowering her hand back down to her side, for now Sharada had to make her way back to Cherrygrove and stat. If she was working with someone else, there would be no doubt that they took on the Rocket or criminal role much more seriously than she did. The least she could do was be on time as she was bound to mess up in the eyes on someone else.

Withdrawing her team, Sharada made her way back to Cherrygrove with Tenebrae by her side. Along the way, she had finally found an object which reminded her of her first meeting with a Quagsire. A big pearl she had refused to sell, it gave her hesistant feelings over taking part in this mission even more. Looking up from her side, Tenebrae noticed her change of demeanour and questioned what she was holding onto so tightly, "Are you alright? What is that shiny orb?" Pulling herself from her thoughts, Sharada looked at it once again before handing it to Tenebrae, "When I first started my journey, Blue Moon Falls was one of the first places I stumbled across. Team Aqua and Magma, criminals from Hoenn, were harassing the Quagsire, so I stepped in to help. I never thought I would be returning to do the exact same thing..." Trailing off for a moment, Tenebrae's icy eyes stared at the iridescent surface, his lips slowly parting. "Then why. Why don't you just stop? You aren't just hurting others, you are also hurting yoursel--" "Haha. It's alright, Ten. This is the path I have chosen. It's just gonna take a bit more time for me to get used to it. Maybe seeing this through will help."

---

Continuing with their travel, the duo finally made it to the outskirts of Cherrygrove City, the meeting point still being a slight trek away. Hidden amongst the surrounding woodland, Sharada and Tenebrae remained crouched in the darkness. "Tenebrae, I want you to remain behind here. Use your illusions to stay hidden and if you see anyone who may interfere, just run. You are far too important to become captured again." Responding to her with a simple nod, he watched as she slowly stood to her feet and hurriedly grabbed at her wrist. "You... Be careful aswell." A gentle smile apparent on her face, she gave his head a soft ruffle, "It wont be a problem. Just sit tight and wait for me." His human form shifting back into a Zorua, Tenebrae seemingly melted into the darkness, leaving Sharada to finally meet at the rendezvous point with her appointed partner.

Dressed in her usual Rocket garb, Sharada atleast knew the basics of staying in the shadows. Keeping an eye out for any wandering trainers, she cautiously made her way to the edge of the Reserve, finding the plotted entrance point. But as soon as she began making her way in, she felt a sticky substance entangle her leg. "What the heck?!..." Looking down, her incompetence in stealth began to rear it's head as she already tangled herself in a web set by Reaver. Luckily it wasn't electric, otherwise she would've been completely useless. Running a hand down the side of her body, the brunette began to brush the substance off, "This is some sort of web? Tsk, what a hassle." Brushing off as much as she could, Sharada moved back into a crouch, this time a lot more cautious and alert of her surroundings. Managing to avoid any more messy mistakes, Sharada found her way to the meeting point and also found some darkness to hide in.

Carefully meandering through the bushes, if her partner was indeed already here, then their experience was showing. "Are they really here? It would've been nice to actually meet and discuss some sort of strategy rather than both of us being thrown into this..." Cursing in her mind, the brunette found a place to hide to decide on what to do. But then, she noticed the water of Blue Moon Falls up ahead. Perhaps it was the wind but she was certain that she had seen a ripple in the surface of the water. Instinctively grabbing a Pokeball, she cursed in her mind, "Screw it. If I made it here first, then I'll just deal with this now." Her impatience and inexperience of criminal affairs showing, Sharada slowly began to emerge from her hiding spot with a Pokeball in hand. She wasn't being loud enough to draw attention to herself but it was clear she intended to start this mission on her own.

[Tyger]

The silence was deafening to the point where Rhoan could hear the blood rushing past her ears and her heart beat. It was quite the distraction, but her years as a poacher in Oblivia helped in this instance. Patience and sitting still, no matter how hard she wanted to move, was a healthy practice and only bettered her sneaking and tracking. However, the silence was interrupted by Reaver squeaking into Rhoan's ear. "What?" The Rocket hissed, turning her head towards the little tick. The Joltik bounded off Rhoan's shoulder and towards one of her traps. Rhoan had to be careful to watch where she placed her feet in order to stay silent, so by the time she reached the perimeter trap, Sharada was nowhere to be seen and the Joltik was mourning the loss of a well-placed trap.

"Someone's here. I can only hope it's my partner, but who knows. Reaver, scout ahead." The Joltik bounded forward, bouncing towards the area Sharada was hiding. The rendevouze point was compromised if someone else was here that wasn't a Rocket. "*tck* Why can't things be easy..." Rhoan grunted, following Reaver in the shadows. The Joltik had stopped, spying Sharada beginning to move towards the Falls. Letting out a squeak to alert both of them, Rhoan stepped out of the shadows, visibly relaxing when she saw the woman in a Rocket outfit. "Phew. And here I thought we had been compromised." Brushing some hair from her face back into place to hide her scar, Rhoan gave Sharada a little smirk. "Best bet is to come up with a plan before we go after the Quaggie. I had a run in with one of the Rangers here, and he packed a Torterra. It's best to get this done and quick." 

Hoping that Sharada would be social instead of going straight for the Quaggie, Rhoan took a step back. "Sorry about the traps. Reaver and I set up a perimeter to avoid any, uh mistakes. Rhoan, by the way." It wasn't often that Rhoan got social, but the criminal syndicate was exactly what she needed to let loose in more ways than one. "Hope i'm an acceptable enough partner. I saw your name on the sheet and saw you've got quite the reputation already." Rhoan would be a nasty drill sergeant to be sure, but when dealing with those above her, they deserved respect. Sure, the idiot sprung a trap, but she was an idiot that had more reputation and pull than she did. That was enough for Rhoan... for now.

[Morrigan]

A Pokeball clenched within her grasp, Sharada was more than prepared to take on this mission all by herself if it meant avoiding any slip ups but she herself had clearly already made several mistakes. Hearing a female voice speak out to her, Sharada turned toward the voice, only to see a striking red head who bore much more confidence and authority than the meek and inexperienced Sharada. From her words, it was clear that this woman was her partner and with a loosening of her shoulders, the brunette turned to face her properly. The bold red R on her clothing proving that she was indeed a Rocket, Sharada finally spoke out. Deep down, she was terrified. Just like with Tobias, she didn't know what criminals were capable of and this one seemed as dangerous. Needing to keep her mind clear and nerves locked up tight, she wore a rather bland expression as she faced Rhoan.

Learning her partner's name, receiving a form of apology and gaining a potential compliment in regards to previous missions, Sharada wasn't exactly sure if her words were genuine. Most in Team Rocket were sneaky, deceiving, sarcastic and selfish. Taking the comments with a pinch of salt, she merely nodded her head. "A pleasure, I'm sure. We both made it here and on time, much more than the stupidity of some Grunts can achieve." The mention of stupidity caused her line of sight to glance downward, only for her to see a remaining bit of web clinging to her leg. Brushing it off with a bit of embarrassment to her motions, Sharada grumbled under her breath but stood straight to assure Rhoan that she wasn't at fault. "I usually work solo, so I didn't expect my partner to set traps." Feeling relieved that she was given a competent partner, she continued, "But it shows you know what you are doing, now, I just need to convince you that you can rely on me too. I may not be the most skilled in stealth but I still complete all of my missions. I wont be failing this one."

Having allowed the warning from Rhoan sink in for a while, Sharada turned and looked towards the waters surface. "So all we need to do is rope in a Quagsire. We can both handle something so meagre. But the Ranger... I agree. Let's find one and take it back. The quicker we get this done, the less chance of interference." Whilst Rhoan had Reaver set up traps, Sharada had one of her own in a way in the form of Tenebrae staying behind. With both of them prepared, they would be alerted one way or another if anything happened. "Let's get this over with."

We'll have a Mod for the Quagsire now, please!

[Deleted]

The waters around Blue Moon Falls were usually crystal clear however in recent times however in recent times the resident Quagsire's had noticed an increase in pollution. At first it was only a few pieces of trash but it had began to get worse. This caused most of the Quagsire to flee as they could no longer stand the quality of the water that used to be their home. One brave Quagsire however had stayed behind refusing to allow it's home to be taken over no matter how dirty it had become. The group responsible for the litter was not too pleased to see a stubborn Quagsire and it was only a matter of time before there would be a confrontation.

The brave water and ground type stood guard over the falls night and day in hopes that the perpetrators would be caught red handed so it could teach them a lesson. Little did the guardian of the falls know that Team Rocket had sent two of their agents to deal with it. The blue Pokemon had thought it may have been some teenage punks or a corrupt business owner causing the mess but when it approached the land it could hear talking in the distance and so it went to investigate the noise when it stumbled across Rhoan and Sharada who just happened to be looking for the creature. Seeing the giant red "R" on Sharada's shirt that it knew all too well who was behind the recent pollution attempts.

Unlike it's friends however this Quagsire was going to take a brave stand against the pair unwilling to allow this travesty to continue any longer. " QUAG " it said as it slowly walked towards them as if it was trying to scare them off despite knowing in it's gut that a battle was the only way it could save it's home. Opening it's mouth the Salamander prepared an attack ready for the unavoidable clash between good and evil. Quagsire knew there would be trouble if it failed to win this battle and by the looks of things it might just be doubled.

The lone remaining Quagsire level 20 refuses to allow Team Rocket to destroy its home. Each character may select a Pokemon level 15 or less and it is the only Pokemon that may be used during the battle. Please select a Pokemon.

Ooc: I hope this is alright. I wanted to try and explain why only one Quagsire was left.

[Tyger]

"Understood." Rhoan grunted, nodding at Sharada. She couldn't shake the feeling that something felt... off... about her, but it couldn't be helped. At this point, all that she needed to focus on was the mission. She was having a few doubts about Sharada, but track records don't lie. She might've been clumsy enough to step into the traps, but after looking her up, it was a minor mistake Rhoan could look past. "Glad to know I fit the bill." Brushing her hair back into place, Rhoan grabbed a pokeball and released her hulking Tauros, Ares. The creature glared over at Sharada and snorted accusingly. "This is Ares. Fresh off the Safari Zone. Paid a pretty penny, but he's actually been very useful and a good companion." Far off from the Red Tiger that she was when she began, she was slowly understanding Pokemon individually instead of just creatures to battle. That didn't make her any 'better' though.

"He's my getaway. Can be yours too, if you needed a lift. Figure i'd station him here, or close to us depending on how hard we need to search for that Quaggie." Rhoan patted the Tauros's flank and straightened out his saddle. "Stay here, Ares, and we'll grab you when we need you. No battling though. I can't afford for you to get hurt and compromise the mission. Everything has it's role, and everything has it's place." Rhoan grunted to the bull. She liked to keep top stock of things, and make sure that everything knew it's role. "Guess we outta go search?" But as soon as the words left her mouth, the angry Quagsire began to approach, staring accusingly over at Sharada and her red R. Rhoan's mouth opened a little bit.

"Oorrrr it can come right to us. Red Tiger don't mind." She snickered, pulling out a pokeball. Reaver, who'd stayed hidden up until now, squeaked and acted as if she wanted to battle. Rhoan shook her head. "No can do, Reaver. Your electric attacks won't do anything to it, unfortunately. We need something a bit more subtle. Just hang tight. We'll use you to tie it up when we're done." Rhoan brought forth a Pokeball and released the fairy Pokemon she'd purchased from the Kalos Festival. Fla-baby or something like that. "Fiona, lets see what you can do. Razor Leaf!

[Morrigan]

Folding her arms, Sharada smiled somewhat, nodding her head at Rhoan. Unaware that the fiery red head had an inkling of doubt, for now, the two just needed to get through this mission. Knowing that she could've had much more blunt and might-than-thou type of partners, Sharada was grateful that Rhoan was normal. Even if she had a criminal record. Noticing that she had taken a Pokeball and threw it forward, Sharada came face to face with one of her Pokemon, a Tauros she had dubbed Ares. Learning that he was basically her choice of a getaway, the way she described her Pokemon caused Sharada to merely look at her for quite some time. "She doesn't refer to them as... tools?" By no means was she showering her Pokemon with praise and love but if Sharada could tell one thing, it was that Rhoan had sensibility and respected her Pokemon. She gave them a role and expected them to fulfil it. This made her a much better partner already. If she had to work with a loud mouth who would opening beat their Pokemon, then it would be a test of patience to see if she would've been able to hold her tongue. Luckily, it didn't seem that would be the case with this one.

"A Tauros, eh? It is certainly a fitting Pokemon to escape on..." Trailing off, her clumsiness was about to rear it's head once again. Smiling shyly, she hadn't even considered a get-away Pokemon but rather than openly admitting it, she replied with a simple, "I'll take you up on that offer." Parting from the stationed Tauros, thwy were about to explore to find their target when the Quagsire did the hard work for them. Emerging from the water's surface and reacting to the red R on her chest, she immediately grabbed a Pokeball from her holster and stood by the side of Rhoan. Grinning wildly, if there was one thing that the meek Sharada enjoyed about Team Rocket life, it was the thrill of the battle. "Saves us the trouble." About to throw her own choice forward, she couldn't help but overheard a soft squeak, her eyes being drawn to Rhoan's hair. Sitting there was a tiny, yellow Pokemon. She was certain it was a Joltik, as she had seen it back in the Unova Festival. Finding it incredibly cute, she turned her face away. What was with this trainer, catching Sharada off guard every so often?

"Rawk! You're up!" Finally throwing her choice of Pokemon, a creature what could only be described as a luchador bird appeared. Standing in a fighting ready pose, the Hawlucha sent a grunt to the Flabebe. He wasn't one to share the stage usually but he could let it go just this once. "Rawk, follow up with an Acrobatics!" As she ordered her move, something Rhoan had mentioned earlier was still on Sharada's mind. Her code name was Red Tiger... She would have to remember that to perhaps look into her previous missions. If things continued to progress smoothly, then she wouldn't mind partnering up again in the future, already.

Blue Moon Falls
Vs. Quagsire
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Two on one were odds Quagsire did not like, but with its friends either gone or sickened from the pollution, it had no choice but to face these criminals solo. Putting on a brave front, the usually docile water dweller began to shuffle forwards as both Rhoan and Sharada sent forth their Pokémon, hoping to intimidate at least one of its opponents through size alone. It may have worked on Fiona given her relative size compared to it, but Rawk remained unperturbed and instead launched himself at Quagsire with impressive speed. Quagsire halted immediately as the nimble Hawlucha circled round it, bracing itself for the powerful kick delivered to its back with barely time to spare. Almost dropping onto all fours, the mud fish picked itself back up with a grimace and beady black eyes locked on Rawk.

Sharada's Hawlucha had already retreated, leaving the way clear for Fiona to move in, but Quagsire surprised them all by making a sudden dash across the ground. Barreling down on Rawk, the angry Water-type let loose a war cry as it slammed hard into the fighting bird and sent him sprawling to the dirt. The dust kicked up by Rawk's tumble to the ground took a moment to fade, revealing Quagsire taking slow, cautious steps back to its starting position, wise enough to avoid exposing its back to the two Rocket associates. No telling what other manner of dirty tricks they had up their sleeves, considering the state of its beloved Blue Moon Falls at present.

Fiona, in the meanwhile, had already gotten started on her own attack. Being the last to go had riled her up enough to glower petulantly at her enemy, the small sprite gripping her flower tightly and twirling it round. Leaves scattered from beneath the large petals, given a nudge from a little fairy wind to go slicing through the air. The air filled with Quagsire's pained cries as the leaves bit right through the slimy coating on its body, inundating it with several small but painful lacerations. Quagsire let out a soft huff, a baleful look directed at the two Rockets to let them know the battle wasn't over yet.

[Tyger]

Ares snorted in response at Quagsire's approach, and all of Rhoan's Pokemon were ready to dig into the Quagsire. However, even using any of the Pokemon in her arsenal now that she thought about it would be a dire mistake. Tyrana and Cayzle were definitely out with their typing, although the Quagsire looked as though one quick Dragon Rage would do it in. Thankfully, with Sharada here with her strange Pokemon, they should have enough firepower to take the Pokemon down. The dopey Pokemon seemed angry, which didn't fit the Pokemon's demeanor very well. It was almost upsetting, if Rhoan actually cared. She had a job to do, and she was going to do it. 

Fiona, a Pokemon of very little personality and probably no use after this escapade, began to fire up her attack while her partner's Pokemon did the same. Quagsire looked as though it could topple them easily, and the level difference would probably pose an issue. However, Fiona's grass attack let loose and pelted into the Quagsire, causing what Rhoan could only assume was a healthy amount of damage. Not to be outdone, the Hawlucha rocketed forward as well, using a flying attack, to chunk at the dopey Pokemon. Quagsire retaliated, but thankfully it was against the Hawlucha. At least that Pokemon had a bit of bulk to withstand it. Rhoan worried if Quagsire even so much as sniffed in Fiona's direction, she'd be gone for.

Speaking of gone for, Rhoan looked off to the side to check and make sure that no one was here. Surely they'd be lucky with no encounters from that strange ranger? Rhoan had given him a run for the money until he let out his Torterra. Sharada and Rhoan were strong, and she was more prepared with more Pokemon compared to last time, but that might not save her. "Fiona, another Razor Leaf. Let's make this quick. I don't want to catch any attention from any snooping rangers." Already thinking of the best way to carry the Quagsire away, Rhoan was counting torchic's before they hatched. Hopefully that wouldn't be an issue. Her best plan, as Fiona readied herself for the next round, was to use Tauros to get away and for Quagsire to be tied up and drug out by the bull as well. It wasn't a perfect plan, but they'd figure it out. Surely Sharada had something that could drag Quagsire away as well? She wasn't sure about her partner, but so far so good.

[Morrigan]

Sharada watched the battle silently and patiently, her eyes mainly focused on the condition of her Pokemon, Rawk, but also occasionally gave a curious glance to Rhoan, to check on her side too. Even though mission wise they were both Rockets, there was still a sense of awkwardness, both of them still as concious and uncertain of one another. For a start, it was certainly strange battling along side an unfamiliar face but it didn't seem that it would last much longer. Her brightly coloured, wrestling avian leapt forward with his incredible speed, landing the first blow but in return, gaining a rather stern strike himself from their target.

Luckily Fiona was there to back Rawk up, dishing out a good amount of damage which was more than enough to send the Quagsire gasping for breath. As Rhoan kept a cautious eye open for the mysterious Ranger she had mentioned on multiple occasions, seeing the red head so on guard di make the brunette a little weary. So far they were doing well but if this person was that much of a threat, it could potentially spell trouble. Particularly if he suddenly appeared. Eyeing the other side where there was a stretch of woodland, the darkness didn't help but she was certain she couldn't see anybody hiding away. Shaking her head subtly, Sharada looked back over to Rawk, who was putting on a good show to hide his injuries after a pretty powerful slam of a strike from the Quagsire.

"Rawk, use another Acrobatics!" Still fairly new to her party, the Hawlucha huffed in response. He didn't really know what was going on but any excuse to hit anything was worth it for him. Fiona also looked incredibly dainty and something Sharada hadn't expected Rhoan to have, at a glance atleast. Somewhat glad that it was her own bulky Pokemon to take the hit, she just hoped that he could draw in and handle another hit.

[Deleted]

Quagsire was in a pickle with very few options left at it's disposal to improve the situation as the second round began. Rawk Hawk like before was ready to make his move well before Quagsire could respond. The hawk began to perform a series of spectacular acrobatic jumps heading towards Quagsire and once it was in striking distance slammed all of it's body weight onto Quagsire. Still in pain from Razor Leaf and Acrobatics from the last round it was not in the mood to take further damage and it was quick to respond in a desperate bid to win the battle.

Quagsire began slamming it's tail in the ground into a puddle of water trying to aim the splashes at Fiona driving the fairy type mad. Her physical strength saw a huge boost but she has lost control of her emotions in the process limiting her ability to focus on her target. Her mind was in a daze however the flower Pokemon was able to still launch her attack even without knowing exactly what was going on. She released a series of razor sharp leaves at Quagsire scoring multiple direct hits. Quagsire just could not handle the pain it was in any longer as it fell to the ground leaving cracks in the dirt where it's chin had made impact with the ground.

This defeat weighed heavily on it's heart as with no one else to protect it's home nothing could stop these two troublemakers from destroying it's home. Lying on the ground unable to do anything but beg for mercy Quagsire could only pray to someday avenge this loss.

[Tyger]

Gritting her teeth in silence, Rhoan watched as the duo of Pokemon began to converge on the Quagsire. Instead of taking an offensive, physical attack has it had done last time, Quagsire turned it's attention to Fiona, attempting to confuse the Pokemon and save itself in a last ditch effort to avoid the damage the fairy Pokemon was dishing out. Thankfully, for Rhoan and Sharada's sake, this was not the case. Despite her confusion, Fiona dug down and managed to attack. The combined damage between the two Pokemon was enough to drop the Quagsire.

Fiona was quickly returned. She had done her job, and Rhoan was content letting her sit in the PC for now while they pressed on. It was unfortunate she couldn't have used a more useful Pokemon, and gained the experience with that particular creature, but the typing just wasn't on her side. "Nice shooting with that bird. It looks like it could really mess something up." Rhoan breathed, ruffling her hair for Reaver. The extra bit of static gave the creature a bit of extra 'umph' to jump off her head and onto the Quagsire. The bug began to attempt to tie it up. With a soft snap, Rhoan summoned her Tauros from the shadows. Pulling some rope from one of the saddle bags, Rhoan began to tie the rope to the saddle and then they'd tie the rope to the bug's web. 

One of Rhoan's Pokeballs opened in a flash, releasing Tyrana from her Pokeball. Her cold stare seemed to stop on Sharada for a few moments, one of the greatest indicators of Rhoan's internal will and power through her first Pokemon. They were a good fit, in case Sharada was doubting anything about Rhoan's demeanor. While she didn't attack or maim her Pokemon, she was still here on business. Tyrana helped Reaver move the Quagsire, and then used the heat from her tail to melt the bonds to the rope to create a quick seal. Quagsires weren't light, after all. "Good work." Rhoan grunted, before remembering that Sharada was there. "Oh... sorry. I'm so used to working alone that I kind of forget that I have a partner. I hope you don't mind that I took care of everything." She murmured, looking at the rigged Quagsire and the get-away Tauros. With a quick heave, she pulled herself onto the back of the Tauros. "We made such quick work of it, I don't think we'll need to escape as quickly as I thought. But you're welcome to dodge out with me and Ares, if you don't have any other means." Tyrana shot Sharada a look before clicking her pokeball with a claw and returning into the ball. Reaver squeaked and returned to rifling through Rhoan's hair.
