(...) As for Kee, he does deign to respond as he walks over to Pyra.  "I appreciate the advice, but I do so happen to love the color purple.  Saw a Shiny Flager once, and man, do I like that shade of purple.  Makes me wish I had been a shiny, cuz I would stand out even more than I already do!  But, oh well.  Have to make do with my amazing fashion sense and even more amazing speed!  None can match my pace, as I'm sure your friend could tell you!  Soon I'll be the fastest thief around, and everybody will tremble when they hear the name of the Amazing Axel!" (...)

Ah, that response earns Axel an intesified rating and surveying look from Ziggy Kee. "Ah, lovin' purple?~ That's good too." He shrugs nonchalantly. "With a bit of clever combinin', that'll surely suit ya just as fine as somethin' more dark or black."


As for battle orders:
Single Action from Kee in this Round. Whatever Axel does, Kee'll try to clash the thief's first action via stopping him in his tracks with his own amazing voice! With all of us attacking and it being us six against one, that should be totally fine and doable, and Kee cannot help but to semi-show off what makes him amazing.

Accuracy Roll Snarl Clash: 3*Special + 2 Fight + 2*Clash + 2 Single Action Bonus = 9d6
Damage Roll: One for Both Kee and Axel if successfull
Additional notes: Weather should be clear as the sandstorm stopped and no other weather condition has been mentioned, which means +1 Special and +1 Clash thanks to the held Solar Battery.

That was it. Daxter finally hit the breaking point. Reflexively getting into a fight stance he angrily snaps, "Fine. Have it your way, arsehole. I tried being nice, but you wanted to be an orange little prick! Since you took the Specs fair and square, I'm gonna beat the crap out of you, fair and square. And then, I'm gonna kick your unconscious skull. And guess what? That's gonna be fucking fair, and FUCKING SQUARE!!!"

Orders: Daxter will use another oomphy Bubble. Simple move.

Accuracy: 2d6 Dex + 2d6 Fight + 1d6 Channel - 0d6 Pain + 2d6 Single Action Bonus = 7d6
Damage: 3d6 Special + 2d6 Power + d6 STAB = 6d6

VS Axel Round 1

"Give it baaaaack!"

(4)(2)(4)(4)(5)(1)(6) 5 successes

Snarl Clash
(5)(6)(2)(1)(5)(2)(1)(6)(5) 4 successes

Axel's own yelling overpowers Kee's as the small, orange cat zooms past Kee without seeming to care at all.  He strikes at Kogeki unimpeded!

Quick Attack doesn't affect Kogeki...

"...wait, what?!  Oh no..."

Shadow Punch 1
(6)(5)(1)(3)
(6)(6)(2) Axel takes 2 damage 28/30 HP -1 Pain

Kogeki's fist hits exactly where he wants it to, though there's no glasses to break, and the small cat seems to be much sturdier than everyone was thinking, as he seems to just shrug the blow off.  "Oof!  You'll pay for that if you've torn my mask!  They don't pay for themselves, you know!"

"We're not going to pay for anything!  And I'm not sure you're going to be paying for anything either, because you're not getting any of our stuff!"

Confusion
(5)(2)(1)(6)
(6)(6)(6) Axel takes 3 damage! 25/30 HP -1 Pain
(2)

"What Karen said!  Though I'm not sure that's the kind of 'pay' he was talking about..."

Bone Club 1
(6)(3)(1)
(6)(5)(6)(2) Axel takes 4 damage! 21/30 HP -1 Pain
(4)(4)

Bubble

(6)(3)(2) Axel Flinches 2!

Bite 2 (Kogeki)
(6)(3)
(6)(3) Axel takes 1 damage 18/30 HP -1 Pain
(-)(-)(-)

Attack after attack lands on Axel, doing large amounts of damage and finally causing him to Flinch!  "NYA!"

Axel Flinches 2!

"And one more from me!"

Headbutt 2
(5)(4)
(6)(5)(5)(4) Axel takes 4 damage! 14/30 HP -2 Pain
(6)(4)(1) Axel Flinches 3!

Axel Flinches 3!
"NYAAAAAA!"

Axel's started panting at this point.  "Wow, you guys are tough...but even if I can't beat you, I guarantee I'm still faster than all of you combined!  You can't catch me, nya!  You'll pay for this!"

VS Axel Round 2

Extreme Speed!
(6)(5)(5)(2)(1)(6)(3)(1)(4)

Before anyone can even blink, Axel's vanished!  Everyone tenses up, waiting for him to appear again...

...but the ravine stays quiet, and no more attacks target any members of the group.

"...well, I think that's that.  I have a feeling that's not the last we'll have seen of him, but I think we've chased him off for now."

Karen walks over to the strange metal box and picks it up to examine it.



"Hey, I think this is the thing that Hawlucha was looking for.  I guess Axel stole it from him after all."

"Hm?  Let me see that...well, I'll be.  That's a Link Box!  No wonder he couldn't run his shop without it!  One of you all should hold on to that.  I'm sure he'll be pleased to have that back."

Everyone gets 2 exp for chasing off Axel, +1 bonus exp for good roleplaying.

After the battle was ended Kogeki take off the dust from the battle he approach Kee and he take off the X-Spec and to his hands...hands. "Here. I think this is yours Kee. Also, great distraction you did back there. You too Dax."

Kogeki take back his scarf while he wrap up once again in his neck. He approach Pyra and give her a weak punch in her shoulder to call her attention. "Excellent distraction too. You feminine skills was able to distract long enough to also immobilize Axel. It also give me the chance in plain sight to be easier to grab the X-Spec back. Despite my speed and quickness, I doubt I could do it without you people...thank you."

"I think I have space to carry the box."

Axel's own yelling overpowers Kee's as the small, orange cat zooms past Kee without seeming to care at all.  He strikes at Kogeki unimpeded!

Ah, so much for Kee's own amazing voice. It's a close call, but Axel's anger and determination to get back what he just stole does barely get the upper hand - part of that is likely because Kee was a tad bit more busy to snarl-scream at Daxter to "Mind yar language there!!" than to catch Axel off-guard with a well-timed shout.

But either way, all worked out just well in the end; loot reconquered and thief successfully chased off! ( ÒωÓ)و☆ Kee huffs into the now-quiet ravine and trots over to Karen to sniff and lick onto that Link Box.

After the battle was ended Kogeki take off the dust from the battle he approach Kee and he take off the X-Spec and to his hands...hands. "Here. I think this is yours Kee. Also, great distraction you did back there. You too Dax.X (...)

That sentence I can't quite follow/don't quite understand it, but regardless of that Ziggy Kee gracefully accepts the Specs back from the deltadoggo. "Thankies an' thank ya there!~" He puts them back on (now counting as a Held Item) and smiles a content, almost smug smile. "Lovin' tha color purple or nat, am standing by the point that these precious specs look A LOT better on me than on Axel ☆(UwU ). They just match my colorful fur streaks soooo nicely~, an' it underlines my blonde furry ear soooo well~~" Human-Kee would totally hairflip now in a stylish manner, so Ziggy-Kee does so with a paw as best as it's possible for him. " 'Ndividuality, dear-me's got LAT of it." He huffs once more into the ravine Axel extremespeeded into.


-----------


Once everything is dealt with and everyone is ready to move onwards, Kee glances over the area through the Specs and points into a direction he wishes to go now. "Onwards to tha HIDDEN MINE WE GOOO~!!"

Daxter's far too angry to even think about what he's saying at this point. "You son of a- That's right! You better fucking run!"

He stares at the rest of the group sourly, preferring to stay silent while everyone decides on who should carry the damn box around. He didn't trust himself to speak, or he'd end up picking a fight with Pyra and Kogeki. While he might be able to swindle a win, any outcome of that confrontation would still mean a loss of some sort. That, and the fact that he now had an excruciatingg amount of pain emanating from his jaw makes him very uninclined to speak.

[Dragonstrike]

"I think I have space to carry the box."

"Are you sure, Kogeki? You picked up a lot of stuff earlier.  Maybe we should let Kee carry it in his bag.  There's almost certainly enough space in there, right?"

[Lord Windos]

Pyra let out an amused *huff* for every ‘NYA!’ the mewling kitten exclaimed, throughly enjoying them getting their comeuppance for their arrogance and thievery. Tricking them felt SO good, and it made their outrage and subsequent beat down all the sweeter~! Maybe this sort of acting and plans has potential for future fights, or at the very least for her group’s benefit and her own amusement.

Axel flight from battle DOES annoy the brimstone imp somewhat at first, before she puts on a sastified smirk and waves in the direction she thinks he took off in.

“Farewell and goodbye, Amazing Axel~! Looking forward to our next meeting and continuing our FUN, oh yes~ “

Kogeki’s praise gets a surprised look initially, but it morphed into one of charming playfulness as she leaned forward to kiss him on the nose.

“ Thank you, my dear Kogeki. Glad too that my Alluring act bamboozalled that puffed up feline, yes, ruled and made a fool of them greatly much, I am! Idea for it came from our interactions , so once again I must thank you , te he he ~ “

Pyra is fine with Kogeki carrying the Link Box , and gives Dax plenty of space once it becomes clear he was BEYOND upset over that utter farce of a thief. Hopefully he’ll calm down soon, or she’ll have to try and cheer him up SOMEHOW .

The she demon recommended that the X-ray Glasses be put up for the time being, on the assumption that doing so was better safe than sorry. That, and the group should already KNOW where all the items are on the Floor, so why keep it out any longer than using them for a quick peek? (AKA : Let just use the Glasses at the start of a Floor , then hide them away to prevent thievery or accident from happening. We could also use them after battles/ events once per room to keep updated on things, if we wish . Just me opinion on things, is all!) 

Other than that, Pyra is ready to move onwards to the Secret Mine!

[Dragonstrike]

After who's carrying the Link Box is resolved (I'd like Kogeki to 100% confirm if he has the space for the Link Box in his bag or not before adding it to his inventory, or give it to someone who definitely has enough space.  Either's fine), Team OS starts making their way to the (presumed) location of the exit to the Hidden Mine.

And that's when they hear a commotion behind them.  A pokemon runs out of the path that leads to the tile to the left, seemingly in a panic.

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!  Leave me alone!"

Nobody appears to be following them, but they don't get very far, as some kind of attack comes streaking out of the corridor and hits them dead on, cleanly KOing them in a single hit!  Once everyone is able to get a good look at the pokemon that had been fleeing, it's very clearly a Salandit.

"Oh my goodness!"

"What the...where'd that attack come from?!  Everyone be on your guard!"

How does everyone react?

Kogeki still not used to get those surprise kisses. Specially one in his nose. He become a little blush again, and his voice a bit trmebling. "I...I-I gladly to have helped somehow Pyra...Its...my duty." Kogeki cough a bit flustered but then he try to recomose himself (but still a bit red). "I think we should go...we still have to beat a few enemies and find Machamp."

Kogeki approach the Link Box and put in his bag. Now he 4/5 spaces in his bag.
