Jon Drake
Heahea Hosptial, En Route to Memorial Hill
Affected RPers: @Neo Emolga @Noblejanobii

Whilst Cassandra got changed, Jon went around to the back of the hospital where he had left one of the perks of his position as Squad Commander.

Whilst Latios was helpful for transport, he could only really carry one person comfortably, and Jon knew Latios wouldn't always be around on this operation, and Jon didn't want to wear the Pokemon out as glorified transport before he may need to battle. So when Steven let Jon know of the amount of money allocated to his squadron, once Jon had spent the funds on essentials, he also decided to cover himself in case Latios was not available to take him somewhere. He wheeled the Honda Africa Twin motorcycle from behind the hospital building, having left it there that morning, aware that if the situation he now found himself in arose, that would be the fastest way there.

This mission had been the first time in years he had ridden a motorcycle, after Alyssa convinced him to sell his own shortly after they married, when neither of them had a car that was reliable, and there being the innate risks of riding a motorcycle, however it suited this mission more, so given the opportunity, Jon made sure to get his hands on one. This model in particular had plenty enough power, and was designed to handle roads well, whilst still being able to traverse off road without too much issue.

As Cassandra walked out of the building, Jon tossed her the spare helmet. It wasn't the first time he had to take one of the ladies to a scene of a curse.

"You ready?"

Once they both had their helmets on, Jon started the bike, before the pair climbed on, and Jon darted south through the city, making his way towards Memorial Hill.

As they rode, probably above the speed limit, Jon darted past a group of Pokemon and a trainer that he recognized as Avery Miller. Whilst Jon had RSVP'd that he and Alyssa would attend their wedding, he was interrupted by the arrival of the Diamond Ladies and their news which brought this operation into existence, and ended up missing the event. Whilst he had seen Avery once or twice on the S.S. Wishmaker, heading towards Alola, he left them alone, figuring it was probably their honeymoon, and catching up can wait until circumstances aren't as dire.

Pulling the throttle even more, and shifting up a gear, Jon accelerated towards the south gate of the city.

Jon Drake, Dylan Squier and Abbee Strauss
Memorial Hill
Affected RPers: @Neo Emolga

It was forty minutes after the phone call when Jon arrived. In that time, Abbee was pretending to be an agitated Pokemon on the rotunda, as Dylan kept passers by away as he tried to calm the Decidueye and send it on its way. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the motorbike in the distance.

When the bike arrived, halting to a stop, Jon and someone else in a helmet that Dylan couldn't identify them through climbed off the bike.

"Over there, on the petition." Dylan explained, "The smarta** wrote her name before she cursed it. She left just before I came over, though Abbee saw her do it, and stopped me from signing it myself..."

Abbee flew down onto the ground, watching the three humans talk, before speaking up, though only Jon and Cassandra could understand her.

"I wanted to tail her, but Dylan hadn't noticed, and by the time he knew something was wrong and could stop people from touching it, she was gone..." Abbee the Decidueye said...

"No matter, it's a lead if nothing else." Jon said, "Cass, any idea what it is?"
