- Umbreon decides to be a bit of a show off and simply walks through the waterfall.


Damage Taken:
Kogeki: 5/2 -> 3 - 1 Reflect - 1 Quick Orb - 2 Defense = 1 damage minimum
Kee: 5 - 2 - 1 Defense - 1 Clash = 1 damage minimum
Platina: 5 - 2 - 3 Defense - 1 Clash = 1 damage minimum
Espeon: 5 - 2 - 2 Defense = 1 damage minimum
Umbreon: 5 - 2 - 4 Defense = 1 damage minimum

Everyone gets to the other side of the waterfall, no worse for wear aside from being a little wet!  Umbreon shakes the water out of his fur and gives Kee an approving nod.  "Quick Orb was a good idea.  Not something I think most pokemon would think to do.  Not bad."

"Let's move on, shall we?  If we keep up this pace, we should be able to reach the end of this Magnagate Dungeon before long."


Team OS and the eeveelutions press on through the long, waterfall lined corridor, drying off slightly and eventually coming across another portion of the path with water pouring down the sides in greater volumes than usual.  This time, however, the water doesn't seem to be coming down as forcefully, and shiny pebbles appear to decorate the pathway where the larger waterfalls meet the ground.



"Well, this is rather picturesque, isn't it?  The water falling, the light reflecting off of the pebbles there..."

"Yeah, yeah, eye for beauty and all, Espeon.  You do remember that we can't get too attached to anything here though, right?  As pretty as it is, there's no guarantee it'll be here later if we visit again since this is still a variety of Mystery Dungeon."

"*sigh*...I know, Umbreon, I know.  It's always nice to see variation in a dungeon like this, though.  It's not something you see often."

Umbreon crouches down low.  "I, for one, think that variation in the flooring is suspicious for that exact reason.  Could be a trap or something."

How does Team OS wish to proceed?  There doesn't appear to be any immediate danger at first glance, and the water cascading down from above onto the shiny pebbles below doesn't seem to be posing much of a hazard by itself this time.

Platina shook her feathers like a jar full of Seeds upon breaching the Waterfall, sending sprays of glittering water out with a grimace as she tried to dry herself adequately. Ugh, it'll take ages for her to get all this blasted water off of her, and she has a feeling she only stands to get even more wet her, not less. Suffice to say, she was not a happy Adventurer right then and there.

Seeing Umbreon practically prance through the Waterfall, however, did cause the metallic avian to perk up in admiration, giving him a simple respectful nod for his feat. While she doubts she'll Tough enough to withstand such brute force without a Harden, she does not see it as a reason to envy others who clearly can - if anything, they proved such fortitude was indeed possible to achieve from the most unexpected of places!

The Lord's dismissive commentary on the surprisingly picturesque sight earned him a somewhat scandalized look from the ironclad lady.

"Lord Umbreon, not to be rude, but sometimes one can simply enjoy a lovely sight in the moment rather than deride it for it's brevity or rarity. Goodness knows the world needs more of such Beauty! *Ruffles feathers* ....Still, I say your caution is warranted. Nothing wrong with precaution in a dangerous place until its proven otherwise."

With that said, while Kogeki was busying using his supernatural and ultranormal senses to scope out any hidden threats in the area, Platina decided on a rather simpler approach to the method: she walk a little forward, pointed herself towards the pebble filled path, took a deep breath.....before she unleashed a downright awful screech that sounded and almost felt like jagged Steel being scrapped together across the ear drums!

"AtTenSiON, aTtENsIoN! iF anYtHINg Is thERe, C o M e  o N  o U t !!!"

Orders: Use Metal Sound to spook/aggrevate anything lurking in hiding in the corridor, or possibly trigger something from resonance with her voice. Let the Iron Lady be HEARD right NOW.
