Don’t worry about the future.

Who: EV ERY ONE
What: Graduation. Prom.
When: The evening of May 31st.
Where: The Stadium.
Warnings: WHO KNOWS

It's a beautiful spring evening at Smash Academy, the barest hints of summer just beginning to touch the stadium floor, which had been rearranged into a platform overlooking neat rows of chairs meant to seat the gathered crowd of faculty and students. Towards the other end of the complex was the arrangement for the prom that was to follow. Food and drink, chairs and tables, each with a floral centerpiece, and, of course, a dance floor.



Before everyone could get their party on, however, there was the main event of the evening. From his place at the podium, Master Hand watched students and staff alike find their way into the stadium. With the recent shadow bug invasion, there seemed to be tensions in need of dispelling. If the Headmaster knew one thing, however, it was that some silly antics were not going to ruin this esteemed event. Not tonight. Not if he could help it.

HEY DUDES! Here's how stuff is going to work. We kick off the log with GRADUATION. This part of the log will be divided into separate threads. I'll post them all at once, so feel free to hop around, mingle, post whenever, wherever.

HOWEVER, once the PROM starts, it will be up to you guys to post your own threads. Please check out last year's log if you'd like an idea of how this works. Everything after the thread titled "DISMISSAL" (I will post that in a bit, so don't post prom threads until I have that up!) will be considered prom, though don't let that stop you from continuing to post in the graduation section.

Please label all your threads appropriately! (Examples: "SHENANIGANS AT THE FOOD TABLE", "DANCE-OFF", "THE PUNCH IS SPIKED", "BOTHER X" In general, a location + what is going on in the thread is the way to go. Obviously, more than one thread can take place at the same location. 

Linking back and forth when and if you thread hop is very much appreciated. If things start to look a bit laggy, we'll bump to the next page. Most importantly, TAG YOUR DUDES, HAVE FUN, and let a mod know about any problems or concerns you might have!

Honchkrow swooped in, grabbing Cyrus by the shoulder--only one, in its rush--and moving him out of the way of the attack, though the shock wave from the fist slamming into the ground was enough to knock him over even at a safe distance. He scrambled to his feet, preparing for any further onslaught.

Aqua Tail had seemed to do the trick, so he ordered it again, and called out Houndoom to join the fray. "Flamethrower," he said simply, his initial fury reduced to an icy calm.

Each subsequent attack forced Galleom on the defensive, and it raised its massive limbs to keep the water and fire from reaching its face. This time its tactic was to stomp in place, causing veritable earthquakes around anyone who stood nearby.

Well, if there were already earthquakes...

He nodded at Gyarados, who slammed into the ground at full force--its own Earthquake attack. Tables and chairs that had been disrupted by Galleom's attacks soon splintered and exploded into shards of wood and plastic.

"Its face is its weak point. Honchkrow, Night Slash."

The bird dove in, aiming for what it could reach beyond the limbs. Though Honchkrow's own size prevented it from passing the arms entirely, only grazing the top of its head.

There had to be a way to get it to reveal its face again.
