Amy started to snarl at Palila when the girl stormed off. She sighed and crossed her arms. The spritzee rubbed against her and Amy rubbed his beak. "Yeah yeah it'll give her time to cool off." Amy snapped to attention when Marina spoke to her. She rubbed her head a bit and shrugged. "Eh, the SuperSonics made me a bit dizzy so I'm a bit nauseous, though that could also be a side effect of one of my medications, or both. Who knows. If you have anything for nausea I'd gladly take it." Amy pat Marina on the back and said, "Don't worry about her. She's just angry and maybe a bit confused or traumatized. What we just witnessed… mm… I think she won't be as hostile come nightfall, once she's had time to cool off and think. I think… ahh what's the word… ah she's on edge. She just needs to blow off some steam. I think we all do."

Amy looked back at Sophie. "I'll proceed to the city as well. I want to start getting everyone's rooms and new clothes as soon as possible." She turned back to Marina. "You're welcome to come and shop with me if you'd like. Or you can do something else. The choice is yours."

Palila left for Jubilife, which I was silently thankful for. Right now, we needed to be smart and not do anything impulsive, and Palila was probably the most likely to do that. Whilst her being on her own was probably not the safest, she hadn't been seen with us by anyone except Robocop, who would find us before he finds her, and the grunt who ran off. Everyone else who meant us harm that saw her with us is now probably dead...

"So, Sophie, are you are to bossing us around? We could use a definite course. That wormhole sounds like a big deal, But I think we need to get you and the other injured people to a hospital. You have had a hard day so I will follow your lead and won't any trouble for you... for ... lets say 27 hours."

I couldn't help but smile weakly at Matthias' proposal, before wincing in pain again.

"No hospitals. No police, and no hospitals." I explained, "With my arm, I will be in there for days, and if the grunts are found looking like my arm all over, links will be made. We can't spend more than a night in Jubilife. As for the wormhole, it seems like it is close to where we appeared, which means Professor Rowan will be able to find them. If we go there, we will be cornering ourselves."

My arm throbbed again as I gritted my teeth as Amy spoke up.

"If you're going into the city, and can do this without drawing attention to yourself, can you try and find me some painkillers?" I asked, "I will be able to cope without using my arm as much, but the pain is what's really causing problems."

"I'll go as well. It will look less suspicious than you booking a room for a few people by yourself." Cody explained to Amy before turning to Drake, "Though I don't have a trainer card here, so Drake, would you mind coming booking a room as well?"

"Are you right to stay here?" Drake asked, looking slightly concerned at me.

"I'll be fine." I explained, "Most of the group will be here with me, and we can contact each other if anything happens."

I looked over at Marina who was struggling with all this. We kind of half knew things might go a bit pear shaped, but not to this degree. She had been with us for less than a minute before the **** hit the fan.

"You should go with them as well." I explained, "Cody is right. If Amy and Drake go and book a room each which can sleep ten people between the pair, it will raise suspicion. If the four of you go, that way it seems like you're a small part of a bigger group, and shouldn't be as suspicious."

I was only telling half the truth when I said that. She needed time to breathe, and spending an hour or two with Drake and Cody, who seemed to be pretty understanding, and Amy who was a lot less rough around the edges that she tried to appear, would be good for her.

Before too much longer, Amy, Marina, Cody and Drake left for the city. Left with me was Tony, Neith, Kinnie, Renny and Matthias.

I looked to those who were still around. Whilst we were not on the path itself we were close, and the last thing we wanted was to attract attention to ourselves.

"First thing we should do is find somewhere nearby, outside the city to hide for an hour or so. If we are recognized it will draw unwanted attention to us." I explained, "Any ideas?"

@Noblejanobii @5TailedDemonLizard

As the four of you make your way into the city, you have a list of things you need to do.

1. Book rooms at Pokemon Center.
2. Get supplies to disguise group.
3. (If Possible) Find painkillers.

How you go about this is up to you...

As you enter the city, you make your way to the Pokemon Center. As you do, you see the electronic billboards on top of buildings showing the footage of your teammates battling Team Galactic at Lake Verity, and Renny being interviewed...

Having her marching orders and her list of things to get on her X-Transceiver, Amy went with the others to Jubilife City. Looking to the others, she said, "I want to head to the center first so I can heal up my Pokémon and add this guy," she gestured to the Spritzee, "to my party officially. Plus the sooner we book the rooms the better."

Leading the group to the center, Amy had her Pokémon healed up then moved to the nearby PC. As she was moving her Pokémon around, she felt a tap on her shoulder. Amy glanced over her shoulder and noticed Olive standing there. "I didn't expect to see you back so soon," they said quietly. "Is the Snorunt alright?"

"Yeah she is." Amy opened Freya's pokeball and let the Snorunt out to see Olive. Olive smiled a little and bent down to pet Freya.

"I'm glad. You've done well to earn her trust so quickly." Olive stood back up and fished something out of their pocket. "Here, take this as my thanks." They passed a berry to Amy before waving. "Well I need to go. Best of luck on the rest of your journey."

Amy waved as they departed before turning her attention back to the PC. She deposited Karl. The kricketune had served her well but for now she think he deserved a much needed break. And now it was time to add the Spritzee to the team.

Amy smiled contently at her new teammate and picked up Freya. Returning to the group, she went to book the rooms at the front desk. Showing her ID, she tried to book the rooms with everyone for their large group. She didn't like the idea of sharing a room with anyone but they had to do what they must.

[[Desolate Divine]]

GM Post @Noblejanobii

As you book a room big enough for most of your team members, Drakes makes his way over, and books a second room which should be enough for the rest. Once both the rooms are booked, and it seems like Cody and Marina are not in earshot, he speaks up, after seeming fairly quiet.

"So what was it like?" he asked cautiously, finding out you're in a completely different world?"

Amy glanced up at Drake and paused in thought. Crossing her arms, she thought it over before saying, "Whiplash." She rubbed her arms and continued, "First off, I'm actually from Kalos. Obviously not your Kalos, but I couldn't say that and then know nothing of your Kalos so I lied. I'm sorry about that. But that said, that's how I knew I wasn't in Kalos anymore. It's a lot colder here. It took the full realization of what was going on until the first or second night for it to fully set in. And… it's a hard pill to swallow. I have a girlfriend, friends, and family all at home. I don't know how long we'll be gone for, or if time is passing back home. Do they know what happened to me? Do they think I've been kidnapped? Do they think I'm dead? Something else? There's no telling. And accepting that is… hard." Amy let out a long sigh. "I'm just keeping it together for the sake of everyone else, or at least trying to. It's what my girlfriend would do in this situation. She'd do everything she could to get back to me, which is why I'm doing everything I can to get back to her." Amy looked back up at Drake. "Does that make sense?"

(OOC: Nobody who stuck with Sophie has replied, so moving them slightly)
We got off the track, finding a small clearing in the trees far enough away that our voices wouldn't carry to the path. Until the others returned we had to wait here. Everyone was practically silent, shaken at what had occurred in the hours before. Finally I had to break the silence, and make the call I didn't want to make. To tell Professor Rowan about William.

I opened the phone app and pressed redial on the number from earlier.

"Sophie! I presume you managed to find the two new trainers?" The Professor said as he answered the phone.

"About that..." I said weakly, trying to figure out how to tell him.

"What happened?" he asked, his tone shifting almost instantly to sheer concern. He could tell something was wrong.

"Marina and William found us, but they were followed by this guy who attacked us." I said, starting to choke up, "He said that he has seen people die because of people not being in their own world, and was going to kill us. William tried to intimidate him by threatening to let out that Pokemon with the virus, and the man shot him."

"Sophie, where are you? Are any of you hurt?!" The professor asked in a panic.

"William's dead." I said, as I lost control and began to sob, "The man had a metal arm, which turned into some sort of gun. It killed William and badly burned some of us. He punched Kinnie and knocked her out."

"Where are you?" The professor asked again.

"We're outside of Jubilife hiding. Team Galactic showed up and tried to take us, so he killed them and we ran." I explained, trying to stop crying, "Amy and some of the others who weren't shown on TV have gone in to the city to book rooms for us and buy things to make us less recognizable. We are gonna stay here until it is late enough that we won't be noticed."

"I will come get you." Professor Rowan began, before I interjected.

"Don't!" I said loudly, "Marina and William were followed from the lab. He knows you've been helping us, and might find us if you come to us."

I wiped my face before continuing.

"A wormhole opened near you which means there is a trainer nearby. Find them first before he does."

"So what will you do?" The professor asked, not entirely convinced.

"We're heading north. Any other direction and he has us cornered." I explained, "If we can cross Mt. Coronet and get into the Eastern Side of Sinnoh, we can hide a lot easier."

The professor was silent for a moment, before replying.

"I will find the trainer near me, and take care of some loose ends here, and meet you in Celestic Town on the 11th." The Professor said, "Just stay safe until then."

I ended the call, still teary.

My watch buzzed again, as did the others except for Tony and I expected it to be from Professor Rowan. Instead it was from Dash.

"Dash Corp has been working on it's cloning technology, and as a result, has left me with eight Eevee who need a home. I have transferred them to your PC systems (I was able to find those who I haven't met by hacking the Trainer Card Scanner and PC logins in the Pokemon Centers. I won't tell if you won't tell.)
@Brettles @Noblejanonii @Suicune's Fire @Shruikan @Lychee @Rival Max @5TailedDemonLizard (OOC: You will now have a Shiny Eevee with its corresponding stone in your PC. Make sure to add it to your trainer card.

Upon reading Dash's message I couldn't help but be concerned at what he said. He hacked the Trainer Card Scanners, and was able to figure out who was with us, even without the Poketchs. Whilst I understood there weren't many as savvy with a computer as him, could someone else hack that?

Wiping away tears, I looked over at Matthias.

"Hey, can we talk for a second?" I asked, "I need someone of your... Talents..."

Drake listens quietly to your reply.

"Yeah sorta." Drake explained, "I can't begin to imagine what this is like. Like, my mum is back home in Kalos, my Kalos, and I know that regardless of what happens here, I can talk to her, and get to go home and see her at the end of all this. But to be thrown into another world, and forced to be with people because of nothing but mutual circumstances, and have nobody from your life back home here to help... That would terrify me..."

As you finish your masterpiece and are playing with paint and your new best friend, you hear a noise above you, as something lands on a nearby trash can, looking at you and the paint, almost wanting to get involved.

I walked east for an hour as it got darker, and found a sign pointing me towards Sandgem Town. So I was in Sinnoh. Hopefully Sophie hadn't gone too far.

I eventually found myself on the border of the town, wondering how I was going to get through without the police being called. After all, I looked like some lunatic with a sword on his back. I had no bag big enough to conceal it, and if Chime was right and the only way back is figuring out why the worlds are going dark, then I was probably going to need it.

Before too long I was pulled from my thoughts by someone's voice.

"You're not from around here are you?"

I noticed an older man looking at me from a few meters away. I was so preoccupied by my sword situation I hadn't noticed him. Sloppy.

"What makes you say that?" I asked, stepping forward, as a nearby streetlight illuminated me a little more. Suddenly the mans expression changed to that of recognition.

"You're Sophie's father aren't you?"

I was shocked at hearing him mention my daughters name. Whilst it could have been a trap, it made little to no sense. Even if she had been captured or something, she had no reason to believe I was able to come here. He must have met her.

"You know where Sophie is?" I asked.

"I do, but I don't want to talk about it here. It isn't safe." the old man explains, "I am the professor of this region. The one who hands out starter Pokemon. It is better if we talk at my lab..."

Rennys focus since the capture had been on solely on the damaged footage. Ignoring the happenings of the others was second nature. When Palila left Renny watched. The girl was irrational and the petty squabbling had grown old. Good riddance he thought.

When the tech vibrated Renny looked at the message.


"Dash Corp has been working on it's cloning technology, and as a result, has left me with eight Eevee who need a home. I have transferred them to your PC systems (I was able to find those who I haven't met by hacking the Trainer Card Scanner and PC logins in the Pokemon Centers. I won't tell if you won't tell.)


"Clone Eevee?" He said

" How do they clone them?" He questioned himself

GM Post @Lychee

Before too long you get a response.

"The PC system automatically assigns PC storage to trainers and creates links between their Pokedex and the storage box when their first Pokemon is sent to the PC or they log in for the first time. I placed the Eevee in an unallocated box and changed the program of that box to allocate it to you when the PC detects your poketch nearby, like it does with a pokedex.

I will see what I can do about a trainer card and get back you you."

Amy nodded her head at Drake's response. "Oh trust me, I'm absolutely terrified. But I'm not going to let that show unless it forces its way out. People perceive that as weakness and I don't have time for people to doubt me and my abilities any more than they already do." Checking her X-Transceiver, she said, "Well I'm getting some medicine for Sophie and getting everyone who needs them new clothes." Amy grinned and pumped her fist. "Time for my favorite activity! Clothes shopping~"

Amy exited the center and headed towards the closest clothing store. Checking her list, she began to scope out for the clothes the others had requested while putting together a nice outfit for herself. Grabbing a new pair of jeans and some new sneakers, Amy was looking through the long sleeve shirts when one caught her eye. She giggled to herself and grabbed it. Perfect. She just needed something to go with it. A nearby green and blue flannel shirt caught her eye. Excellent. Swiping it, she finished gathering everyone else's clothes, grabbed a beanie as she went up to the counter, and purchased everything. She was lucky this wasn't a high end store since this pretty much drained her of all the cash she had. "They better reimburse me," she mumbled. After putting everything except her own outfit into bags, Amy asked if she could use one of the changing rooms.

Using her own scissors to cut off all the tags, Amy slipped into the new outfit and twirled in front of the mirror. She couldn't have designed a cuter outfit herself. Well… maybe she could've, but she wasn't here to compete. Pulling one of Theresa's bun makers out of her bag, Amy pulled her hair into a high ponytail then wrapper it into a bun, allowing some of her hair to flow free down to her shoulders. Amy paused as she gazed into the mirror. She hadn't meant to but… this looked almost exactly like Theresa's hairstyle. Amy touched the mirror as she looked herself over, before shaking her head. Focus. You need to get medicine for Sophie. Pulling the beanie over her bun, Amy took one last moment to adjust her clothes before exiting the store.

Spoiler:

On the way back to the center she stopped for some medication, and luckily they had a variety of pain meds. Amy used the rest of her money to buy several packs of pain pills. Who knows how much they'd need. The clerk gave her an odd look as she came to the counter with them, but she waved him off. "My friend and I use the same brand so I'm saving them the trip." The clerk seemed to buy it and rung her up. Dropping the boxes into her bag, Amy walked back to the center and headed to her room to drop everything off. Then she sat back down in the lobby to rest for a bit, using the time to write a bit in her journal.

Matthias busied himself trying to set up some camouflage for their makeshift camp. He did what he could to make life easier for the injured people in the party, but was a little out of his depth. He was much more used to looking after himself, than other people.

He wasn't sure how much help he was being. He was more suited to backstreets and alleys, then out here in the bush.

Thankfully Sophie came to him with a request. "Hey, can we talk for a second?" she asked, "I need someone of your... Talents..."

Matthias smiled. "What do you need? ... and who do i need to take it from?"
