Fen looked at Darryl for a long moment, then shook his head again. "Alright, I'll trust you. Better not get yourself captured, though... It would be quite a waste if someone as handsome as yourself were to never be seen again." He smirked, then stood up, Riz tensing at the same time. The men had stopped a few tables away from them, and looked to be discussing something. Probably, whether or not they should take on three shifters at once. "For now, I'm staying here, but I'll be ready to head out north if it happens. You know where that big Palkia statue is, right?"

[yeet.]

"Likewise, I wouldn't want your good looks to be ruined or taken from me." Darryl responded, "But hey, unless they want to suffer from extreme nightmares for months, I won't get captured. You'd be heartbroken if I was taken away from you." He teased lightly, «I wouldn't particularly like to be in their hands either, Darryl» Darkrai stated from inside the poké ball. "Palkia statue? Yeah, okay, I'll meet you there. But only if those three decide to provide us with a reason to attack, will you leaving be necessary."

--I have Andrea{latias} and Lynette{Raichu} open :3--

Shirley stood up after listening to the two's slight argument. "well, If you two do not need my help then i shall be leaving." she said before heading for the door.

Shay looked at Nicholas with a confused expression. "if i assumed wrong then why are you getting so defensive about it?" she asked, confused by his actions.

"I-I'm not being defensive." Nicholas retorted harshly, folding his arms across his chest. He could barely belief that this stranger was accusing him of such actions! But by now, it was clear he was just using feeble excuses in an attempt to divert the attention away.

[LoliNeko]

Shay giggled a bit, "now your being defensive about being defensive." she said, ow finding this Nicholas to be quiet amusing. She then bent down and looked at the Luxray and smiled at it, so, Nicholas is a deviant like me right? she asked it telepathically.

[nyctomancy]

The Luxray merely purred contently, before raising it's unblinking lids to Shay. It seemed to be giving her the mental equivalent of a 'How should I know?' shrug. No matter what, the beast was loyal to Nicholas. "N-no, this isn't me being defensive." The teenager stated again, his cheeks flushing. "If I was being defensive, you surely would know."

"Got it." Fen nodded, and Riz gave him an amused glance, then switched his watchful gaze back to the three men. Two of them were coming this way, and the third was talking on his cell phone, making gestures with his free hand. He tensed, and Riz's hackles rose. The Absol wasn't quite snarling, but the corners of his mouth were drawn back, baring his teeth slightly. Fen looked at Darryl. "I hope they're not calling for backup... you know what, screw the plan, we should both get out of here, like now." Fen, something big's about to happen. Riz communicated silently, without taking his eyes off of the two that were approaching them. The men were walking casually, slowly, even, and seemed to be wandering around aimlessly to someone who wasn't paying attention. But no, it was clear to Fen and Riz that they were making their way toward them... Fen abruptly grabbed Darryl's hand, pulled him out of his seat and towed him along toward the door, running with Riz right behind him. Someone in the diner yelled something, and Fen heard footsteps chasing after them. Let's split! He telepathically urged, but didn't yet let go of Darryl's hand. Despite the gravity of the situation, it felt nice to have a different kind of warmth than Riz in his hand...

[yeet.]

Darry's focus was on the three men namely the one on the phone as he tried to concentrate on what the man's gestures meant as well as what he was saying, well, his lips anyway but that didn't seem to work for the Darkrai deviant. He was yanked away from his thoughts when Fen took his hand, and Darryl was worried that he might be blushing as badly as he thought he was. Darryl sped after Fen, hearing the pursuing footsteps which urged him faster. He looked at Fen briefly before averting his gaze. "In the forest, give them a harder target!" Darryl said to Fen, pulling the other deviant to the vast mass of trees.

[Leo Lorenzo]

"Right!" Fen and Riz changed course, following Darryl's lead into the thick forest. It was darker in the forest, and while that was a benefit for Darryl and his Darkrai, for an Absol like Riz, and white-haired Fen himself, it just made them stand out all the more. "Riz, Psycho Cut!" Fen yelled to his partner, communicating his plan more by thinking the image to Riz rather than by saying it. Riz didn't need a second cue, a transparent, crescent-shaped blade shot out of Riz's scythe as the Absol's eyes glowed. A tall tree was sliced through at the base, and with a huge creak, it crashed to the ground. That would buy the four of them some time at worst, and at best it would have crushed their pursuers. As dirt flew up in the air around them, Fen still didn't let go of Darryl's hand. It would be bad if they got separated in a forest like this, and with potentially more pursuers behind them. His face was tinged with red, but he tried not to think about it at the moment. After all, there were still more pressing matters at hand. Darryl! He called out to the Darkrai shifter by thought rather than voice as voice could alert the men to their location, What now?

[yeet.]

Darryl watched as the tree fell to the ground, he hoped that would then buy he and Fen some time before their pursuers caught up once more. Darryl threw his Poké Ball into the air, sending Darkrai out. »Darkrai, go and see how the tree affected the men but don't let yourself be seen!« Darryl said to his Pokémon who obeyed and sank into the ground before darting off as a shadow. Darryl looked at Fen then answered with, »I was thinking perhaps try to circle around but I doubt that will help. So, perhaps we could try the alternative of us spitting up; split the men up.«
