>>5726767Starmie blasts Tintoretto with a jet of water, threatening to bring him down into the mindscape's choppy waters. 'Get out!' they cry.

>Froslass used Shadow Ball on Castform for 355 damage!The goo-wad from Charles absolutely sidelines the Ice-Ghost, sending her to the ground encased in the sticky trap. "Agh! Help! We've... gah!" she grunts and shouts, attempting to free herself. "I knew something was wrong with your group!" Any further speech from her is interrupted by a Stone Edge crashing down on her relatively tiny frame. "I'm going to bury all of you, Rainbow Shine!" she screams like a banshee.
Her shouting might waken the sleeping Federation agents...
Astor leaves the rest of the team to deal with her, departing as the temperature in the room drops a few degrees. He can recall that Spiritomb was taken somewhere to the South Wing, which he arrives in. Below, or above...?
>>5726771>>5726773>>5726777>>5726778>>5726785As Sable leaves the Manectric in the lowerplane, he can hear a warbled shout of fury and garbled threats. He's probably just made an enemy for life. The group quickly flees underground, following the winding flight of stairs until they end up at a long hallway, guarded by two Sawsbucks. The two of them look at each other with a steeled look.
"Command team, come in. They're here, call all of them in," the winter one speaks. "...Command?"
The spring one attempts with their badge. "Command, we're requesting backup at the access site."
"..."
"We're on our own, huh?"
They block the doors. "Lost Hope, you're not getting through," they say in synchronization. "Lord Xerneas has entrusted us to keep all of you out."
>>5726780Spiritomb catches the perplexed attention of the Porygon. "H-Huh... there's an unauthoriz-zed communication in m-my central u-unit! But y-you're not Federation... w-what a-are you offering...?" They sound interested.
>>5726769Maroon pushes Sawk into the partially formed wall, just as Nidoqueen shouts. "I'm tired of your shenanigans!"
The walls he's built between the group are promptly knocked down as the enraged Nidoqueen has used a consenting Sudowoodo like a club to bludgeon a way through.
