Hello <span style='color:darkgreen'>Team Emerald</span>. This team is made up of the last two remanding <span style='color:red'>Team Ruby</span> team mates that joined <span style='color:blue'>Team Sapphire'</span>, and they now all live at <span style='color:blue'>Sapphire's</span> beach.
Not much that I can say, but enjoy your stay, play nice, and keep an eye on the chickens because I noticed a lot of predetors are around here oddly...
And go!
<span style='color:teal'>It had been several days now, and Simeon had finished cleaning up the damage from the hurricane. The hot springs were restored now and he had been hunting often to prepare food and pelts for the new members.
Things had been rather weird as of late though... Simeon suddenly falling asleep whilst working, missing objects, graffiti on the trees, ands other weird stuff like that. Then there was "the creepy feeling" that caused the bravest beasts to shriek and Simeon's blood to curdle. Whatever that was, it wasn't welcome here...
The lion-morph knew that from this day onward, this game was gonna become a free-for-all. Most everyone will want the bragging rights that came with winning this game.
Simeon shook his head. To him, winning was just a bonus for the real prize: living in his element. He could care little about the game just as long as he had people to take care of.
A rustle in the bushes and the blur of a thrown javelin later, Simeon completed his quota of small game for the day... Now, he was ready for the big game.
"What'll it be today?" he muttered with a pleased grin as he examined the trees for animal markings, "Bear? Elk? ... Cougar... two of them. This will be fun."
With that, the lion-morph stalked off into the brush to track his prey...</span>
*waves hand in a jedi-like manner* Move along. Nothing to see here...
"Nice digs you have here..." said Stevenson as he flew in to the camp. "But I think it could use a few homey touches." he then proceeded to drop everything: Everything thtey had, the chicken cage, some fruit, even part of the shelter and the fire pit, out of his inventory screen. They landed on the beach with a very, very loud "thud".
((Fear the power of the inventory screen!))

"Guess who?!" Silver yelled as he landed on the beach beside everything Stevenson had dropped from his inventory screen. "I take care of the chickens, all right? Ain't no wild predator gettin' through while I'm here! Just ask Ned! He's the rooster, y'know. The chickens are Tilly and Penelope. You'll call them by their names, got it?" the Pidgeot explained after walking over to the chicken's cage and standing in front of it. "I'd suggest that I can also fly at Mach 2 speeds and spot a fish from 3,300 feet in the air, but I think Lion-man 'ere has a handle on the food situation..." he added.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate." Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.
<span style='color:teal'>Simeon dragged in a couple speared cougars into the camp. "Eggs. I'll cook after I get these cats skinned and cleaned. Scrambled or sunnyside up?"
<span style='color:gray'>Silver blinked, slightly horrified. "CANNIBAL!" he squawk-shrieked flailing his wings toward the feline corpses Simeon was holding. "If he eats his own kind, we're doomed... DOOMED! FOR THE FEATHERED ONES!!" Silver began flapping his wings madly.</span>
<span style='color:purple'>Ibun stopped him. "Calm down, Silver..." the cat-morph growled, pulling the huge bird back down, "He would have eaten me by now if he were a cannibal, and just be glad that's two less predators that'll hurt your cooped kin." Ibun pointed at the rooster and hens.</span>
Simeon just grinned. Ibun was right, but there were cougars to skin and a feast to cook...</span>
*waves hand in a jedi-like manner* Move along. Nothing to see here...
<span style='color:blue'>"Looks like the remainder of the other team is here." *Josiah commented as he and Shauni arrived on the scene.*</span>
"Welcome!" *Shauni, always the friendly one, rushed over to great the newcomers.*
<span style='color:blue'>"Here's the wood we collected." *Josiah dragged a large bundle of logs into the cave.* "So, the new guys are both birds. This will be interesting." *He sat next to Simeon and Ibun.* "I suppose we could use them for scouting or something. Maybe they'll finally be able to spot that ghost, or whatever it is you think is out there."</span>
((Seems you're on ROM 4 mode, Josiah-sama. Jeff isn't here. Ibun is. XD))
<span style='color:purple'>Ibun shuddered, "Yeah. Whatever it is... or was."</span>
<span style='color:teal'>"Any special requests from the new houseguests?" Simeon shouted from his 'kitchen' dug out from a hollow under a VERY large tree stump. He had aleady begun skinning the cougars. "We eat more than just meat and fish at this camp..."</span>

After Shauni had introduced herself to Silver and Steveson, she rant inside and made some room for them inside the cave.
It was going to be a little cramped from now on, but that didn't really bother her as she had her privacy screen. What did bother her a little was she was still the only female. She had hoped the other team may have had a girl or two. She loved being with the guys, but she was slowly becoming a "jockette".
She sighed and placed some bedding down for the camps new arrivals.
After she had finished she returned outside and began to help simeon cook.
"BOW BEFORE THE SHAUNINESS THAT IS SHAUNI! "--Shadowman
"Shauni fell down a drainage ditch and died. That was the end of her pokemon journey. "--Shauni
<span style='color:green'>"Team Emerald, it is my duties to say that Ibun has been voted off.
Now you may start posting again, etc...oh yeah, it's really hot, and a python is eating your rooster." Celebifly announced as Ibun left with her.</span>
"Yeah, right! No python can get past the ever-watchful eye of Silver!" the giant bird yelled, gripping the offending snake in his claws, flying high into the air, and shooting the reptile off like a rubber band. "And don't come back, rooster hating scum!" he called, the feathers on the end of his wings curled to look a little like a fist and shaking it threateningly.
"...Good. Ned looks all right... and THAT's why I never take my eyes off these guys! An island just isn't a safe for flighless birds, but I take good care of them. Oh yes I do!" he switched to 'baby-talk' there and proceeded to scare the chickens half to death...

"Yeah...that's, uh...that's good Silver. You just keep doing that." Stevenson looked over at his companion. "Anyways...what can be done 'round here that doesn't have monsieur lion morph's name pasted all over it in giant red letters?"

<span style='color:teal'>Simeon rolled over on his bunk and glared sleepily toward the the daylight. It had just been a few days and already the newcomers were making a great deal of noise, and on top of that, the heat was enough for Simeon's instincts to force the normally productive lion-morph to loafing around.
"Nice toss, Silver-kun..." the lion morph muttered grumpily, "You just wasted some very nice snakemeat, too."</span>
Shauni noticed Simeon's lethargy. "Maybe you should take a swim?" she suggested, considering felines were not normally fond of water.
<span style='color:teal'>Simeon grinned. The ocean was right there... "Great idea..."</span>
