<span style="font-size: 15px"><b>Round Primary</b></span><br/><br/><br/><i>Night has fallen, the group of young trainers sleeps, unaware of the drama that was playing out above.</i><br/><br/><br/><br/>Night cloaked the forest around the small camp. The fire had burned low, little more than a wisp of flame and glowing coals. The forest was silent, no distance crash, no sounds of nocturnal Pokemon foraging. Where Growlithe had settled in was now only a empty patch of mossy stone, the Pokemon no where to be seen.<br/><br/>Eleyna slept like the rest, using her bag as an uncomfortable pillow. The group around the fire had found too limited a space to erect tents, and most simply used sleeping bags, kept close together for safety.<br/><br/>Only one sound could be heard among the sleeping group. The sound of a Pansage urgently, quietly trying to wake its trainer. He pushed his small hands against her shoulders, his breathing rapid, eyes wide and searching the sky while he whined in terror. He batted at Aisha in desperation. In a last effort he screeched at her loudly, his small voice carrying a high pitched echo through the trees.<br/><br/>A flash of brilliant white light suddenly pierced the canopy of leaves above, cutting blinding rays in a burst. Aisha's Pansage fell silent, his ears pulling back as his wide eyes stared up above, the small Pokemon trembling. The light came again, and again, like a strobe of sunlight piercing the night. Eleyna muttered in her sleep and curled up in agitation from the Pansage's loud cry.<br/><br/>A boom his the camp like a bolt of lightning had come down not a mile from it, the sound shook the trees and made the earth vibrate. Eleyna woke suddenly startled, her heart racing as the adrenaline response kicked in. She looked around in confusion at the others.<br/><br/>Another boom hit, and suddenly another and another in rapid succession, a crackling cut through, and the light flashed through the canopy from above.<span style="color: blue">What the hell is that!?</span>Eleyna yelled, frightened. She could barely be heard over the cacophony thundering across the mountain side.<br/><br/>Eleyna was on her feet, her bag held in her hand as she stared up at the sky, each thundering boom make her jump. A smattering of sound joined the blasts, like rain coming down through the leaves. Eleyna stared above, not sure if she should run or stay still. She yelped in pain suddenly as she felt a sharp pain cut across her cheek. She huddled down and grabbed her face, when she withdrew her hand it was red with blood. Something had cut her.<br/><br/>Small shards of rock skipped off the forest floor around her like a rain of razor stone. She felt several sharp pains  on her back as she was struck again. She heard someone yell to take cover, but before she could, a new sound joined the rest, a crashing snapping of wooden and branches. Two dozen feet from the camp, the ancient trees split and exploded in splinters as a massive jagged boulder crashed through the canopy like it had been sheared from the cliff-side above, the flashing light illuminating the scene.<br/><br/>Eleyna felt her voice catch in her throat as she tried to yell<i>run</i>. Holding her bag strap she ran from the camp, seeing only split seconds in the flashing of light, giving her brief, limited views of the pitch black forest around her. She screamed as she retreat down the mountainside, her foot catching on a root. She fell, hit the ground hard and coughed as the wind was knocked from her, her bag flinging out of her hands and tumbling down the slope. The strap broke and its contents was scattered on the ground. Behind her a jagged boulder as large as the camp had been crashed through the canopy, hitting where the camp had been, its momentum obliterating what was left of the fire, sending sparks and embers flying. The rock skipped and hit a tree no more than a few feet from where Eleyna had fallen, smashing the tree's trunk, buckling and splintering it. Only the canopy of trees above kept it from crashing down. Other trees were no so lucky, being crushed under the rain of stone, snapping their trunks and uprooting them, sending them falling to the ground.<br/><br/>Eleyan kicked and tried to move, but her foot he caught in the root that had brought her down and she couldn't see in the dark which was to move her foot to free it. She desperately yelled and fought to get free, rolling on her back and grabbing her leg, pulling.<br/><br/>As she fought her eyes were drawn up. The tree's that had been felled had cleared the canopy above, and she could see past the forest cover. She stared at the scene before her.<br/><br/>High up on the cliff above them, a terrifying display played out. Hyper Beams cut through the sky, jets of fire erupted from the mountainside, lightning lit the night. Blasts exploded in the air, off the cliff, making the earth tremble and casting shards of stone from the mountainside into the forest below.<i>It was a battle</i>, Eleyna realized in awe.<i>It was a battle of titans taking place above them.</i>Small shapes darted through the air, visible only in flashes, they attacked whatever was on the cliff side, casting fire and ice, lightning - and never at one another, always directed down - and from the earth there was return fire.<br/><br/>Eleyna blinked as she felt a spray of water her hit, which began like ice and hail - They were collateral, caught in the wake of a titanic conflict taking place above. She had to move, Eleyna had to move, she was vulnerable. They all needed to escape, get far enough away. She fought trying to get free but she couldn't.<br/><br/><span style="color: blue">Help!</span>She screamed, pulling against the roots. She shielded her face as a gust of air tore down the mountainside, carrying hot embers with it that stung at her.<span style="color: blue">Come on, dammit!</span>She screamed, kicking at the roots and clawing in desperation.<br/><br/><i>No!</i>She thought,<i>I'm done being a burden, I'm done being helpless!</i>She grit her teeth and reached, grabbing the edge of her boot, and turning her foot.<i>I'm not going to be some damsel in distress anymore!</i>She kicked, her foot pulled from the boot, still stuck in the roots, and she ran, hopping down off a small ledge of rock as a felled tree came down behind her.<br/><br/>She found a small overhang of roots and earth and huddled beneath it to keep clear until whatever great conflict it was had played itself out.<span style="color: blue">Over here!</span>She yelled to anyone who may have passed by on their escape.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
