Shadow Claw bounded into view with another ice Punch, this time focusing on the punch aspect. The little Shinx went flying back over the wall.
"Regroup!" Yolanda shouted. They were all tired, and so was the other side, she could see.

Calfrun landed next to Yolande, having jumped off a building. Several dead and unconcious pokemon landed next to him, followed by his own team.
"A little more rough than we had imagined, eh?"

Wes ran straight past Yolanda, his Pokemon following close behind. He grabbed the wall and began climbing over. As soon as he could he jumped down to the other side and grabbed Eliandas.
"You ok little guy?" Wes asked.

"As a matter of fact, I found out about a plan by these guys had to try and surround us, and I took my team over there to stop the group that was tailing us."

Yolanda looked back disbelievingly. "Alright... still. It's become more of a standoff than anything now."
(Okay for month long skip now?)

(No the battle has reached a standoff right now. Most of Paladin is in Burlain, or still in Roi Rill. After the month skip, we need the rest of Paladin to come behind Phoenix
Maybe we'll wait for Micheal now. He might get pissy if we go to far without him)

(Whatever.... continuing from the one-month time skip... I guess.)
Eric sat atop a hill that overlooked the city of Burlain. The citizens rarely left their homes now; they were too afraid of an attack to be caught outside alone. The city was running very low on food. Unable to leave, the people of Burlain were extremely malnourished, as were their Pokémon.
Renegade and Wraith were sparring a little ways down the hill, and Tiberius wrestled with Fang nearby. Things had become relatively quiet compared to the beginning of the attacks about a month ago, so there was not much to do. But every once in a while, a foolish citizen would wander too far from home and stand in perfect view. One quick Ice Beam from Wraith and....
Eric stood and brushed the grass off his pants. He descended to the base of the hill and passed alongside the Burlain Wall. After a month of enduring the siege, the wall was still in impressive condition. Eric could not help but admire the work the people of Burlain had put into the wall. Reaching the corner of the wall, he turned back to go in the other direction, pacing along the wall. He looked up and saw a girl with her Vulpix. It was that mystery girl who had shown up at the beginning of the siege. Eric had never seen her before, even in training at HQ, so she must have been a fairly new recruit. Removing any doubts of her loyalty from his mind, he advanced toward Nicole.
"Any news — ah... it's Nikki, right?"

Darrien sat in the center of town with the other gathered members of Paladin and Burlain. Everyone was tired, everyone was hungry. Team Phoenix wasn't letting any bird Pokémon get out to retrieve food or water. Mouthy fluttered to and fro, delivering messages across town. Even he was tiring.
Tyler sat with Archie across from Darrien. Alianna was a little was off. In the month since the siege began, they had gotten to know each other, and she was accepted into Paladin with open arms.
"So," she said.

"Um, yeah, sure. Nothing new yet. You?"
She didn't especially like the nickname, but it might help with her cover. Nicole had blended into the Phoenix Team perfectly. She had managed to keep any advances coming into Lavatown, but she had no choice but to go along when they left. She had no idea what was going on up there, and she hadn't heard word yet about another attack. As far as she knew, the rock wall was still up. They probably had Onix on patrol, too, along with the other members' pokemon. She wondered how her grandma was doing.

Michael had returned to the Durgood Forest after the attack on Roi Rill. They had successfully driven out all of the Phoenix and Magma members, but at what cost? Nearly half the city was destroyed, and there were casualties numbering in the hundreds. The forest was littered with the bodies of Phoenix members pinned to trees and hanging from the canopy.
Michael sat in the "living room" of his secret base and gazed out the small "window." Xero was flying around, keeping the base organized as usual. Breeze was snoozing in her nest just outside the window. Scar jumped from branch to branch, dodging Water Guns from Checkers, who was in the river nearby, and Cell did the same, having Transformed into Grovyle. Things seemed peaceful, but Michael knew better. There could be no peace until all the teams — Magma, Aqua, and Phoenix — had been eliminated.
Grabbing his backpack and sliding down the rope to the ground floor, Michael ran outside and called his Pokémon to him, returning them to their Pokéballs, except for Xero. On second thought, Michael released Breeze from her ball and grabbed her talons. In the past month, Breeze had learned to use Fly, and Michael was still getting used to taking advantage of her new move. Obeying a silent command, Breeze lifted into the air, beating her wings fiercely. They soon broke through the canopy and were flying above the Durgood Forest. Michael let go of Breeze's talons with one hand and reached down to his jacket pocket. His green and silver jacket, a gift from his mother, had become the symbol of Paladin, and his new Paladin emblem stood out boldly on his chest. Stopping his reverie before he could go too far, Michael reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. Dialing a number quickly, he put the phone to his hear.
"Wes? It's Michael. I'm headed your way. I'll get the others. It's time to free Burlain."

Eric sighed.
"Things are just as uneventful as ever," he said. "I think it's about time we move on. These people aren't going to give in. We might as well head on to the next city and come back later. Of course, we'd have to keep someone hear to keep watch, but I think we've just about served our time here. What's the nearest city— that one on the other side of these hills? Fireville or something?"

"No, we can't abandon the city!" Yolanda appeared, seemingly from nowhere. "They're faltering: their resources are being used up. They can't stay in there forever."
