In Spite of nearly getting minced by the sailor and her sword your fiesty fox seems MORE determined than ever to stick in the Fight! Or perhaps BECAUSE of Spite - Bethy's species holds grudges like no other, and she certainly wants her pound of flesh after that beating! So much so her Special increases by 1 for the rest of the Fight - she's raring to GO!
The moment you summoned Hatterene made your opponent tenses even more, her guardedness at an all time high with eyes dark, narrow, and stormy as she g r o w l e d out a three words:
"Another Fucking Witch."
Of course that was hardly the end to her woes as you and your sister pulled of her Mega Evolution with stunning, spectacular style, earning several gasps of amazement and shock from the crowd around you! You Witch of War and Wonder, after taking but a moment to adjust and draw her Weapons, took the measure of her opponent....
...And nearly go straight on the assault with the downright murderous aura that had enveloped the salty dog. The old lady's eyes had narrowed even further to pinpoints, and you could hear metallic strain as she forcibly kept herself in place, lest she do something most Rash. That look in her eyes, previous shadowy and stormy, was now...
INS + Contest + Empath
(1)(3)(2)(2) (2)(4)(3)(2)
...almost indescribable in the intensity of the emotional turbulence she's having over seeing your Battle Mistress. The only thing you could parse was this: they felt hunted.
Your words didn't seem to reach your stressed opponent, their gaze glued to your sister's own defensive and hyper vigilant one in glare off that you could almost SEE the sparks coming from. For a long, long moment it seemed like this once sporting Fight was about to devolve into something much more messier...
??? Will's : 10D6 + 2 (Stubborn Old Dog)
Difficulty: 2 (???) + 2 (Lost Control) = 4 ; She needs min 4 NOT to do something terrible, and 8 to push past whatever got her so riled up.
(4)(5)(6)(6) (6)(6)(6)(1) (1)(3)(5)(2) 7 Successes
....The old lady took a deep breath and heaved a Sigh so heavy you and your sisters could FEEL the Pressure coming from it.
"....Enough. Enough. .....I quit. Continuing from here...."
She grips a hand so tight you could almost swear you see it deform from the force.
"....Will end poorly. For everyone. I already escalated once. Lost control. I can not afford that to happen. *Sighs* Not again. Never again ."
Slowly, almost grudgingly, the metallic blue thing she did to herself receded and faded away, and she forcibly straightened her posture into a distinctly uneasy but picture perfect military posture. She reached into her coat and threw out a bag in front of you, almost causing Hecate to attack it and subsequently them. It *jingle!* as it hit the ground, and as you picked it up you could feel its weight and the *clicking* of many metal coins. This must be the wager money, no doubt about it. $3000 Poke Obtained.
The old woman looked stern, guarded, and stressed, yet so tired and done with things.
"....To the victor goes the spoils. Now...I will take leave. Do not bother me. Not today, not tomorrow, not soon. If you want answers... Oquqo. Look it up, then come find me...if you are brave."
Then, without another word, the sailor turns around and stalks off, heading over to the freighter with swift, grim determination, parting the crowd like a knife through butter.
Hecate seems....a bit flummoxed by what looked to be a most worthy foe to test her Might and Magic just....refuse to Fight her. What? Was that it? Were was the most epic Battle she was foretold? This....this...this was most underwhelming a twist, oh yes, oh unrest!
Your sister let out an aggrieved huff, seething her Weapons and crossing her many arms with a disgruntled pout as she glared after the old lady. It was a strangely adorable sight, and reminded you that despite being your most violent sister she was also a relative innocent child at heart. Strange dichotomy, but that's a 'wicked' Fairy like a Hatterene for ya.
Bethy, on the other hand, promptly collapse into a fluffy and worn out ball of battered fox, letting out a tired whine of Pain and discomfort. Oh thank Sinnoh it's over. Revenge is all well and good, but even she was having second thoughts after that freak of a woman never lost it! Oooh, she better get some good pampering and TLC for this, or she'll shred her Trainer's best shirts, she SWEARS....
You....we'll see
Victory. Everyone gains 5 XP [After XP Mods]
This concludes your 1st Moderate Encounter; I request you don't head into another Battle for your next and last Moderate Encounter, since those are time consuming and I need to get through Phantom's ASAP. If you need ideas I'll help you out.
Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.
