Raid on Russet Mine
Who: Sol Commanders. Open.
What: Team Sol Raid.
Where: Russet City Mine.
When: Early morning. 7am till all day.
Note: Fossils are for Sol only. A grunt will take one.

The air smelled of petrol and dirt. There was constant noise; bulldozers, drills, explosives and trucks. Lifts carried miners into and out of the mine, and brought rock and ore out. Huge trucks, shovels and cranes were moving large quantities of minerals and dirt.

Except Russet City Mine was barricaded; the gate was closed and two large delivery trucks were parked in front of the entrance, preventing access. Two young adults, a boy and girl dressed in white sleeveless tops with trousers and skirt, stood guard. The miners who had been digging tunnels and shafts into the earth to reach buried ore had been driven out by Team Sol.

Their grunts were sifting through debris on a large conveyer belt located near the mine. It brought minerals to the surface through tunnels and shafts. A red stone, aflame on the inside, caught their attention and it was carefully placed inside a padded metal box. Heart Scales were tossed in a burlap sack and gold nuggets went in another.

The raid had been received with anger; miners had protested. But their Onix and Machop had been chased away by a large number of Shroomish and Combee. They kept digging.

The male at the gate didn't know what the Commanders wanted with fossils. They were just old bits of rock, he thought. They hadn't even found one! A person was walking by, watching them. He gave them a glare and yelled:

"Get lost! This is our territory!"

The mines were where Alvar trained, a place where Golem could cause all the destruction he liked and be considered helpful. Igglybuff rolled around by his ankles as he approached the loud grunt, trying to puff herself up and appear intimidating. Alvar was making no such effort and seemed confused and a little amused.

"Actually, lad, it's mine." He said with a wide, toothy grin.

	The young man touched the bridge of his nose. It was always the same. If it wasn't some hot-blooded kid wanting to prove he was a hero, it was some old-timer wanting to show he still had life. But old people were the past and Sol were the future. "Just get outta here before we bust you up," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Alvar laughed. The sound of it was audiable clearly even over the noise of the mining equipment. Alvar was not a quiet person.

He reached for Terra's pokeball as he finally quietened down, then changed his mind and selected Golems. If there was goinhg to be a battle then Igglybuff would appreciate seeing Golem fight.

"You'll be busting up nobody, lad." He said, smile still there. "I'll tell you again, these mines are my territory. Gather up your mates and leave."

The female grunt wasn't taking Alvar nearly as seriously as she really ought to. She'd taken some Pokemon other old men had had and it amazed her still how they'd fight, knowing they weren't as strong.

And so she laughed even as they were chewed out, elbowing her partner in the ribs.

"Yeah yeah, I bet grumpy here'd have a hard time tossing you out on your ass."

She was tossing a Pokeball into the air again and catching it. No need to call the pokemon out yet.

It was in the middle of the more recent toss that the girl soon found the ball not coming back into her hand. There in the sky, holding the ball was a wingull that had caught it and was carrying it over to a young man sitting on some rocks near Alvar. His eyes twinkled with determination as he gave the red head a kind of smirk.

"Oh believe me he would have no trouble tossing both of you out on your cans. But I think it's the smart thing to play fair and give you the chance to leave before you get your asses handed to you." The young man smiled as he petted the wingull and took the ball from him. "Good boy River. We'll have to find out who owned this pokemon before."

Tamaki glanced over to Alvar, "Want some help with this sir?"

"Good timing, lad. Is my girl with you?" Alvar asked, apparently more interested in Tamaki than the grunts. He shook his head, remembering she wouldn't be. Her dojo was under scrutiny today, an inspector was visiting her to make sure it was a safe place to teach self-defence to humans.

"You shouldn't be assuming it's stolen just like that, mind. That pokeball could well belong to the lass here. As for that, I'd say it's thier choice."

He turned back to the grunts, apparently totally serious. "Would you like the young'en over there to help me?"

"Hey now I'm not a young'en, I"m twenty two for goodness sake," He smiled and set the ball carefully down. "Even if it is her's she's not teaching it the proper things. Now...what should we do about these guys."

Tamaki hopped off the rock he was perched on. While he was shorter then Alvar he still was tall enough to be imposing on anyone that saw him. Grinning and pulling out a pokeball he looked at Alvar, "I'm up for a confrontation if you are."

	So it was universal. Grunts are idiots. Lulu was the better trainer, and with the stronger Pokemon. Houndoom's quick instincts allowed him to avoid the spores with little effort. "Flamethrower." Only one word was needed, for immediately afterwords, a searing burst of flame flew straight towards the Shroomish. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Edgar blinked and felt himself tense slightly. What failure had these idiots committed this time? Wings winced slightly at the sound and was about to respond with a ferocious Supersonic, but Edgar held his hand up and beckoned the idiot closer. "Explain and make it snappy." He calmly replied, touching Sword and Spear's Pokéball. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Uh, course." This Commander was as bad as the other, so he scratched nervously behind his head like he'd done when confronted by her. "Well, she told me to say... the Champion's up there." He waited for the inevitable explosion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Murkrow had led Lulu in the opposite direction of Tamaki, so she'd agreed to split up. She'd taken down or avoided some grunts along the way, and finally ended up here. "The champion isn't alone," she said. Lulu held a Pokeball in each hand, with Murkrow perched on her shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
