Realgam Tower, Orre - Training Room
Riley exhaled and tightened his focus, putting all of his attention to the aura wavelengths around him. He opened his eyes and directed his attention to the sparring partner in front of him, able to anticipate when in which direction his sparring partner would twirl her wooden practice knives as she waited for his "go ahead".
Alright, as long as I don't blink...
"...Rea-"
Riley had less than a split second to react to the knife about to "stab" him in the shoulder. He raised his arm and blocked the attack by hitting her forearm. Seeing another action about to be taken, he ducked as his sparring partner spun around with Agility-boosted speed and tried a horizontal slash. Riley jumped backward.
"If this is 'ready', I'd hate to see your idea of 'set' and 'go'", he commented.
"But that was a test... To see if you were ready", said Marley.
"...You know, normal people just... Oh forget it. Go!"
Riley weaved to the side as Marley sped at him and aimed for his arm. Cheryl sat on a chair in the sidelines watching the two of them and drinking a can of tea. Mira walked up from behind her and saw the high-speed battle of Marley's speed and Riley's dodging skills.
"What's happening?" She asked her.
"They're sparring", replied Cheryl. "Riley wanted practice with reading people's movements with aura, and Marley wanted to experiment with ways to relentlessly attack someone. I am merely here to heal them if anything happens."
"Lucky them", Mira pouted. "Mira's always looking for a sparring partner, but nobody's volunteering!"
"To be fair", said Cheryl, "you're capable of picking up and throwing bridges. Even if someone is able to engage in equal footing with you, I doubt it would be worth the risk of possible collateral damage going towards the tower or anyone nearby."
"...Mira practices moderation sometimes", she grumbled. She crossed her legs to sit down on the ground and crossed her arms, pouting and mumbling something to herself as she watched Riley attempt to sweep kick Marley.

Earth, Perplexing Pool
A bright green flash occurs, reflecting accross the water of the Perplexing Pool... A bright green crystal falls on a pile of dirt... Somehow, this Chaos Emerald didn't end up in the same world as it's brothers. It starts to shine intensely, as it senses something under the dirt... The Chaos Emeralds disappears into it...
Not far from here, the Elemental Spiders are working on their bases. A bunch of dweevils of different colors are transporting various materials towards a building in construction... Look like something to store food. Leading the construction site is a big yellow Dweevil with spike coming out of it's legs.
"Keep up the good work everyone!"
Looking in the distance, he seems to notice the green glow, which his troops don't notice from being concentrated on doing their job. The Elemental Spider's leader, Sparlectros, calmly walks out of the base to investigate. That was really close to the base. As he arrives at the pile of dirt, mechanical parts are starting to be launched everywhere from the pile of dirt.
"Oh! Free ressources?!"
The Dweevil starts moving towards one of the metal pieces to collect it, as the pile of dirt basically explodes, revealing a big yellow ball of metal. All of the mechanical pieces start raising in the air, and attache themselves to the ball that is now glowing green, until they form what look like 4 legs. The creature created by that event, known as a Man-at-legs, towers over the Dweevil and interpelates it.
"Who are you, Dweevil? I don't recognize you."
"Are you a Man-at-legs? I thought you guys were organic?"
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?! ALL ORGANIC LIFE MUST DIE!"
"Oh? Hum... I'm definitely a robot."
The mechanical creature known as Robo Bob seems to analyze Sparlectros, but as a big yellow ball, it's hard to see any emotion from it. It seems to believe the spider at it doesn't attack though.
"Where are Chaos and the others?!" asks Robo Bob
"Huh? They've been dead for years... These guys are legends."
"How could they be dead? What are you trying to say? I need to get my revenge and destroy them!" the chaos-at-legs mutters as it starts glowing green again. "What do you mean you want to go home with the others?"
"I'm sorry? Who are you asking that to... Oh boy... What did I fall upon?"
"What? Who talked to me if it wasn't you?"
Suddenly, there's a big green flash again and Robo Bob disappears in front of Sparlectros' face.
Unknown, Time Void
Robo Bob is confused, as he cannot move and everything around him becomes green and blue. He seems to be sucked in by a vortex. To the side of him, he sees the events leading to his defeat, but the sharp-teethed army of pikmins seems to look towards him as if they looked into a camera. The small army of Chaosmins come out of the blue energy and seem to enter Robo Bob like they would enter an onion.
"WHAT IS GOING ON?! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?!"
The vortex continues to swing Robo Bob through events he lived and as he sees the other elite Chaos-at-legs named Sparky, he shouts in anger.
"IF I CAN GET THE CHAOSMINS, I CAN GET HIM TOO!"
Sparky comes out of the blue energy and somehow fuses with Robo Bob, as the vortex suddenly ceases to exist and Robo Bob crashes somewhere in the world of Oz...

Oz, Karantown
Some bartender in some quiet town is cleaning glasses, waiting for customers... There's none today. He can hear them celebrating outside. There was some kind of festival outside. It went on all day and now that it's really late, they're starting the fireworks. As the bartender tells himself that he shouldn't have worked today and go to the festival instead, a tall muscular man enters the tavern. The bartender immediately recognizes him: strong black beard, black ponytail, brown eyes and a mythril armor that glows blue... That is indeed Karandon, the celebrated man. He's followed by three ladies which seem unable to get their hands off of him. The general turns towards them and with a fake smile on his face tries to get rid of them:
"Bloody Hell ladies, I know everyone loves me, but it doesn't mean I love everyone. Can you please bug off?"
The ladies all look at each other in confusion, unsure if it's possible to be offended by their hero... They just leave, leaving Karandon dumbfounded. He turns around and walks towards the counter.
"I can't believe that worked... Could I get a drink, mate? Anything will get through my mouth right now, surprise me!"
"You don't seem happy about the festival renaming this town for you..." says the bartender, preparing some generic beer, trying to pretend this town has something special to give to the general "How could that be?"
"Look, mate... 3 years ago, I led an army to kill 3 dragons... APOCALYPTIC dragons they told me. BLOODY HELL! I saved the goddamn world. And I got what? People applauding. Then nothing. Nothing at all. Except people calling me a hero. I got a title. That's it. Then 3 years later, they announce a festival for me... I'm like: "Bloody hell! That's exactly 3 years since that event. They'll finally reward me properly!" Turns out it was pure coincidence. They think I just saved your random ass town by finding this thing."
Karandon reaches to his pouch and takes out a card, as the bartender just continues to listen to him. The worker hands some beer at the general, whom drinks it down in one go. The bartender observes the card: blue border... He knows what this is, but has never seen any. A blonde man searching inside a green pouch is depicted by the card.
"This. I'm getting a town named after me, because of this. I save the world, I get bloody nothing. I find a card in some random alley, I get whatever this bullshit festival was... Karantown... That doesn't even sound good... They think the guy trapped in the card is a bad guy I defeated... They think I've saved the town... I just found it. That's ridiculous. That... "Malik Adamarth" neither seems evil nor dangerous. I can't even use the card to free him... I don't have these powers...
I... I just want something to happen... I need to lead an army again... Everything's been calm for too long..."
Before the bartender can place a word, Karandon grabs the card and bursts out of the tavern. The bartender waits for more clients, but nothing... no one. He walks to the door and looks outside. No. No one's coming. He closes the tavern and goes back upstairs to sleep.

Vitcity, Julia's House
@yoshi
"Today is the day... Morgan finally prepared it... Tonight is the date... I just need to decide what to wear and I can leave for the restaurant..."
Julia is staring at her wardrobe and telling herself that everything would be easier if her Soul Key worked in the real world. She knows Morgan wouldn't care about whatever clothes Julia would wear, but she decides to try to pull off a flowered dress... She's not even gonna look at herself in the mirror... Fashion is not her thing, that'd be useless for her... The blonde girl puts on a long green dress decorated by red and purple flowers, puts on some violet socks with green lines to complement her dress, then wonders if she should put on a hat... No... Hats are for the Other World... She decides to untie her ponytail though and lets her hair fall on her shoulders. Avoiding mirrors as such not to change idea, she walks outside...
After 30 minutes, she's right in front of the restaurant... Just in time. Neither early, nor late. Julia sighs, more of relief than of bother...
"Well... Time to figure out if I can really love a girl..."
She walks into the restaurant and tries to find Morgan.
*****
Earth, Wistful Wilds
Carnivorus was just destroyed by 4 armies... It's seed managed to run away unnoticed and it is still running. The creature runs past bulborbs, pikmins and other creatures curious about it, but it ignores them and keeps running. Eventually, the world destroyer finds a quiet spot next to a cave... There's no creature around. It's about to plant itself into the ground to regrow, but a mysterious voice resonates from the cavern, as the inside starts to shine.
"Help... Help us please... Please, help us..."
Carnivorus certainly cannot understand the voice, but it's soothing... Certainly more appealing than growling bulborbs... It runs into the cavern and disappears.

Location: Morgan's Apartment
"Thanks again Metta for all your help," Morgan says to Metta as Metta leaves her apartment. Metta gives Morgan a thumbs up and waves goodbye to her.
Morgan then takes a couple of seconds to relax and catch her breath. Morgan's makeup is done and she is wearing bright red lipstick. Morgan is now in her bright red slightly form fitting dress. She's just standing there though almost afraid to move. Meg and Bret have enough food and water and are okay for the rest of the evening. Yet Morgan is petrified of what's to come. What Morgan is about to face is her toughest battle yet.
"Geez why couldn't our date be facing off against an army of monsters?". "Or beating up someone in the other world?". "At least then I would be someplace I am comfortable about,". "Geez hopefully everything goes okay with Lauren no big deal or anything,". "Just the girl that has been my biggest supporter and always there for me and I told her I love her,". "Great no pressure or anything," Morgan sighs flopping onto the sofa.
Morgan just stares at her ceiling wondering if she should go ahead with the date. She can always come up with some type of illness or something. Maybe it was a mistake to kiss her best friend like that and tell her she has developed deep feelings for her. Yeah maybe she should have kept quite about that. Morgan then closed her eyes and took a couple of deep breaths.
Then again Julia is probably going through the same thing. Julia is probably just as nervous as her. "Well then Meg and Bret wish me luck," Morgan told her pet ferrets. Meg and Bret seemed to have other plans as they hoped into Morgan's bag and refused to leave.
"Thanks guys," Morgan tells her pet ferrets.
A couple of honks lets Morgan know her taxi is here to pick her up.
"Well guys here goes nothing," Morgan says grabbing her heels and her bag.
Morgan heads into the taxi where it brings her to the restaurant she agreed to meet Julia at.
Morgan puts on her heels and pays the taxi. Morgan then see's Julia waiting for her.
"My god she looks so stunning,". "Hey Julia I made it," Morgan calls out while waving down Julia.

Location: Peach's CastleEveryone is gathered at Princess Peach's castle. Today is a big day because Sophie and Ann are visiting in what feels like have been forever. Ever since the incident three years ago they have been pretty busy with their home world. Yet both Ann and Sophie were able to find some time to come and visit there old friends. Rosalina went over to Sophie's home world to wait for her and Ann. Well ever since everything happened its been easier to travel between the two worlds but Rosalina insisted on meeting Ann and Sophie. Peach, Mario, Bowser and the rest of the crew stayed behind to help set up the party. Well more like Bowser was told he had to help by Flanna. Flanna seemed to recall that Bowser needed her help when it came to his castle and Flanna agreed to help but in return she could get any favor she wanted in return at a later date. Bowser would soon come to regret owing an Anna a favor but at the time thought nothing of it. "Grr I am a king of the world's greatest army,". "I have better things to do then set up tables, and decorations,". "I don't even put this much time and effort into Jrs. own parties,". "Why do I have to help out right now?" Bowser grumbled. "Because I believe somebody owes me," a tall, red head (with a silver streak running down her center), merchant looking figure reminded Bowser. "Hmph Bowser doesn't take orders from you," Bowser grumbled. "Oh and who was the one who practically begged for my help to rebuild there kingdom,". "You know how easily I repaired it,". "I can just as easily take it apart brick by brick," Flanna told Bowser. Bowser more or less became quite and went back to work setting up for the party. "Teehee you sure know how to handle him," Peach said to Flanna. "Oh dear it's nothing that hard, when he tried to assert dominance I just have to remind him who's actually in charge," Flanna told Peach. Peach and Flanna giggled at the remark and went pack to work setting up. Mario was busy more or less napping under a tree on a hill overlooking the castle. Mario drew lookout duty and was suppose to let everyone know when the girls were on there way. Yet, he quickly grew bored and fell asleep underneath the tree. "Pichu Pichu Pi Pi," a familiar Pichu told Wario. Wario and DK were carrying heavy musical equipment to a stage area. "Mama tell them to be Pichu about it," Chip said. "Hey guys you need to be careful with those," May told Wario and DK. "Grr if some tiny mice creature can lounge around this stuff,". "Then easily the great Wario should have no trouble carrying it," Wario growled. "(I wouldn't be complaining too much),". "(Last I checked you were being payed a hefty sum, and that lawsuit against your company was dropped)," DK told Wario. "I guess the pay isn't too bad, and Peach's cooking is the stuff of legends," Wario said. "Hmm I can't wait to see Sophie and Anna again those two have been busy lately," May told Chip. "Yeah they helped me find Mama, so I Pichu with them," Chip said to May. "Oh yeah I did hear that Ann wrote a special song for Sophie,". "She even asked the Princess, Mama Rosalina, and even Bow Bow to help her perform it for her,". "Oh I just wish Zack could have come but you know how he gets," May told Chip who nodded in agreement. "Looks like we are almost done Flanna, again thank you so much for everything," Peach told Flanna. "Think nothing of it after everything my sister and her wife have been through,". "This is the least I can do for them,". Flanna told Peach. "Guys look alive Rosalina, and the guests of honor have just entered the warp pipe and should be here any minute," Starlow told Peach. "Okay guys get ready," Peach told her guests. "Oh right Bowser summon you know what," Flanna told Bowser. Bowser huffed but pulled out a magic wand to summon the Boo buddies. The boo buddies arrived and began to goof off. They were spinning in place and just floating in random directions. Bowser just glared towards them to get them in line. The Boo Buddies then grabbed a guest and caused them to vanish just moments before Rosalina, Sophie, and Ann arrived at the gates to Peach's castle.

Location: Inside the Challengers Looker Room
Carleen and her pokemon are getting ready for there long awaited rematch with Shinon champion Cynthia. It took a while to get to this point with the whole rebuilding the leagues after that whole Nova thing. Let after much hard work and dedication from the survivors they managed to slowly rebuild.
Cynthia told Carleen she would be delighted to have a rematch with her when everything settles down. Of course she would have to face the elite four again and defeat them but that shouldn't be too hard for a trainer like her right. One by one she managed to overcome the elite four and now she sits in the resting area moments before her rematch with Champion Cynthia. Cass, Jude, and the rest of her friends are in attendance along with Brock and Flanna there to cheer her on.
Carleen is sitting in the challengers locked room her loyal pokemon by her side. Carleen feels ready of course she's been waiting for this rematch for a long time. At the same time her chest feels like a whole of Butterfree flew inside of there and decided to throw a party.
"So guys its almost time I can't tell you how nervous I am right now," Carleen said staring at her Pokemon.
Ashley the Delphox closed her eyes to focus her physic powers. This way she is able to allow Carleen's Pokemon with her and communicate how they feel.
Pika the Pikachu was the first to hop onto Carleen's shoulder and nuzzled her. "(Mother you don't know how much I been waiting for this moment),". "(I am all Pikaed up to face us against Cynthia again),". "(I know things will be very different because we all grown so much since the last time)," Pika told Carleen.
"(Don't worry mom no one is more prepared then you),". "(That time training and being with us all alone allowed us to grow together as a family),". "(So don't worry about us just go out there and do your best)," Bob the Venusaur told Carleen.
"Ms. Carleen your one of the nicest and most caring people I have ever meet,". "These past few years of being with you is some of my happiest memories of all time,". "Please allow me to lend you my strength in this upcoming battle,". "Along with the strength of all your Pokemon we are here to help you," Yuzu the Meloetta said to Carleen. Yuzu then floated into Carleen lap and gave her a hug and began to sing a very low key song to soothe Carleen's worries.
"Oh Yuzu your songs and words are so very soothing," Carleen said to Yuzu.
"(Ms. Carleen me and Ashley are forever in your debt),". "(Our home town was destroyed, Ashley's mom was turned against her and her trainer,)". "(We were scared, lost, and hungry,"). "(We didn't know what would become of us and feared the worst),". "(Yet little did we know we would run into one of the most kind hearted and heart warming people ever),". "(Me and Ashley are so very grateful and we swear to do everything in our power to help)," Greninja told Carleen. Ashley the Delphox nodded in agreement and let loose a couple of howls.
Paul the Dragonite has always been a Dragonite of few words. Paul began to remember the day he and Carleen first met
Time: 15 years ago
Paul when he was a Dratini was being abused by a bunch of Pokemon collectors. Paul's living area was a small tank barely big enough to contain his growing size. Paul became very mistrusting of humans and very withdrawn. Yet one faithful day the area where the collectors kept there Pokemon was raided by the police. Upon being saved Paul was taken to a local lake and released into the wild. Paul was content to live the rest of his days in that lake free of humans.
Yet one day he would come across a trainer that peaked his interest. A young lady with her Pikachu, Bulbasaur, and Charmander. The three were taking a nice relaxing break by the lake side. This site wasn't new to Paul he was use to seeing people camp by the lakeside. Paul knew the deal he would hide beneath the surface and keep out of sight where no one could see him. Yet, this young girl seemed different her Pokemon seemed like they were having a blast with her. The Pokemon were having a good time splashing in the lake and they were enjoying the nice day. Paul noticed how she didn't treat her Pokemon like they were things but they were her family. Paul continued to silently observe them.
The Pikachu showed off a little too much and ended up much further from the shore. Eventually, he was quickly tiring out and was having a hard time making it back to shore. Paul was getting ready to help but before he could react the young girl dove into the lake to get the Pikachu. No hesitation what so ever and with no regard what would happen to her. Unfortunately, the little girl underestimated the distance herself and how tiring it was to try and care a panicking Pikachu. The Bulbasuar's vines were just out of reach and the little girl was struggling to keep a float.
Paul made a decision that day that would forever change his life. Paul quickly darted to where the little girl and Pikachu was and lifted them above the water. Paul them quickly swam them to the shore and dropped them off. The little girl was so grateful to the Dratini and offered him a snack. Paul still unsure whether to trust the little girl hesitantly took the snack and swam away. The little girl called out to the Dratini and thanked him again for saving her. She promised to come back again tomorrow so they could play some more. Paul let loose a single Tini and swam away.
The next day the girl came back with the same treat the Dratini loved. Paul smelling his favorite snack swam close to the little girl and stared at her. "Hello there friend my name is Carleen,". "This here is Bob the Bulbasaur, Pika the Pikachu and this is Char the Charmander,". "How about you friend would you like to play with us," Carleen asked Paul.
Paul stared at Carleen for a few moments then kicked up his tail and splashed Carleen and her pokemon. Then Paul let loose a couple of happy Dratinis towards Carleen and swam close to her.
"Your so soft and warm, from this day forward let's be best friends," Carleeb told the young Dratini.
The young Dratini looked over towards her and was purring towards him.
Paul looked over towards Carleen and then let loose a few roars in agreement.
Carleen pulled in all her precouis Pokemon for a huge group hug. While they were hugging Carleen heard her name being called over the intercom. "Okay guys today is the day we do this," Carleen told her Pokemon. Carleen's pokemon looked towards her and nodded in agreement.
Carleen stood up and with her Pokemon behind her began making her way to the stadium.

Somewhere in E. Gadds Lab
"Ah ha ha, free at last,". "They thought that a simple Boo containment feel could contain me,". "Please I am no mere boo but the king of the Boos,". "Now to get my minions back, and destroy that stupid Dark Moon again,". "Its time to finish Luigi and that stupid professor of his," King Boo said while floating around.
"This time they will be no holding me back, no illusion will be too great, no trick to harsh, instead of letting those incompetent ghost try to soften him up, I shall handle Luigi from the start," King Boo said while starting to leave the lab.
As King Boo was exiting the lab Professor E. Gadd spotted him.
"I am afraid I can't let you pass," E. Gadd told King Boo.
King Boo was looking pretty smug about the situation he was in. "Please old man you could barely handle one of my lesser minions," King Boo told the professor in a mock tone. "Thank you for saving me the trouble of finding you, I hope you enjoy your life as a painting," King Boo said charging towards E. Gadd.
While E. Gadd closed his eyes and whispered the words sorry as he took a small device out of his pocket.
"Sorry for what being a loser who's about to fail everyone," King Boo laughed. "Sorry for the place that you are about to go," E.Gadd said as he launched the device that enveloped King Boo.
"The device was a prototype and I have no idea where it leads to," E. Gadd said while making his way back to the lab. "I am sorry if it takes you to a place full of people because they have no idea the horror I just unleashed upon them," E. Gadd said as he went into his lab.
The sound of complete silence was almost deafening as E. Gadd simply closed the door to his lab.

Location: Unknown Hideout
Fawful has just gotten off the communicator with Lord Crump. Fawful had Midboss off on assignment while he took some much needed time to himself.
"Lord Crump is about as useless as the crumbs being thrown to the ground,". "If only the rest of the slackers I had working underneath more of any use,". "The fury must rest to achive high levels of deliciousness but the ingredients are cheap like a store brand ingredients,". "At least Chef Midbuss is around and Chef Chlortles are around," Fawful said aloud.
"Hmm those two said they had to take a short trip to another world,". "Now then time to get busy with the working,". "No job is too big and no fury is too small,". "The only thing that shall be ringing is the sound of my chortles ringing throughout," Fawful proclaims.
Fawful takes off towards his lab to begin working on his part of the mission. "It has been a while since I was home in the castle of Koopa,". "The testing have been tested, and the results have been resulting,". "Now to put the touches that are finishing,". "La lio la lio the dragon of fury shall fly once again," Fawful sang.
Unbeknownst to Fawful was that the same portal Dimento and Anna(?) used to cross into the land of Yulessia was acting funny. Another thing was the machine used to cross dimensions was a prototype of the Outrealm gates and was still in the testing stages. Third the prototype was located in Fawful's lab. The prototype began to spark to life on it's own and begins to suck in things like a mini black hole. Fawful was unaware of what was happening until it was too late. Fawful was sucked into the machine and just as quickly as it glitched on it turned itself off.

Realgam Tower, Orre - Hallway
No! Grant shouted inside his head. "Awww come on, why do you hate good food?!" shouted back Gawain. Rawst Berry salad is good food! Grant retorted. Besides, the doctors said I should try to eat healthy for the next few days. I'm not going to eat some diseased Rattata Stew! Don't you know what they do for most of their lives?! "Only if you're a half-assed chef who doesn't know how to prepare it! I don't know about you, but I'm sick of hospital food, and I say we treat ourselves just once! Besides, how did a kid your age ever develop a taste for bitter-ass Rawst Berries? That's old people food!" That's... not important! But it's my body so I get to decide what it eats! "We're sharing!" Grant picked up his downward gaze as he heard a feminine voice behind him, finally putting an end to the petty argument.
"Hey Grant!" Grant turned as Meridia finally stepped out of her room with a smile in his face. "Good morn..." Grant was caught off guard at seeing Meridia with an outfit he ddin't expect to see her wear: a purple training gi with black capris and what looked like martial arts shoes. She slung her bag over her shoulder as she slowly closed the door behind her, careful not to awake Squirtle (who wasn't a morning person). "Good morning," she said, chuckling slightly at his reaction. "What do you think of this look? Do you like it?" She raised her arm and spun around to show herself off. "Ugh, modern women's fashion. Those pockets are basically just for show." "Well I think it looks great!" Grant exclaimed. "Thanks," Meridia answered, beginning to walk by his side towards the breakfast hall. "I bought it at a boutique in Gateon Yancy told me about. Psychic trainers in Unova used to wear this." "Looks like you're taking your training seriously," Grant said. "I am," she answered. Her expression dropped to a serious one. "I... Latios helped me realize that moping around like I've been lately isn't going to make anything better. Micah is still out there... somewhere. I'm gifted with a rare power. It's about time I learned how to use it." Grant stared at Meridia's determined expression for a moment before nodding slowly. "Well... You look like someone who should be respected. It's inspiring to see you working hard on it. Just let me know if I can do anything, alright?" Just keep being you, Grant... Meridia silently thought to herself. "Frankly, I'm more worried about what I can do for you," she replied. "You could barely walk straight the last time I saw you yesterday. How are you feeling?" "Mostly okay...ish," Grant responded.
"You only tripped and fell twice before leaving your room."
"The doctors tell me to take a nutritious diet and regular exercise. I'm definitely not taking any missions any time soon, though." "Hmmm.... Tell you what, I think we can both train together. I levitate some rocks and throw them at you for you to dodge. How does that sound?" "Hey, there's a classic method. The telekinetic was usually a Pokemon, though." "Sure," Grant answered. "But first, breakfast!" "Of course," Meridia answered. "...Hey, ask her what she thinks about Rattata Stew." Please shut up. Location: Somewhere in the World of Pokemon
Hugh crouched down and held up one of Xerosic's laser rifles, pointing it at a target at the end of the long hallway. Xerosic himself was standing behind him holding a video camera. "Okay", Xerosic said, "Laser Rifle model v.2.01 testing... Go." On cue, Hugh fired. A large laser blast shot out of the rifle, pierced the giant target and burned a deep hole in the wall behind it, traveling an even longer distance even despite the hall's metal plating and the fact that they're currently underground. "Too much power!", yelled Hugh. "I thought I told you I don't want to fire this thing in Nimbasa and be able to hit someone in Driftveil!" "It's a work in progress!" retorted Xerosic. "More importantly, check if the internal components got fried." Hugh pulled the trigger again to test the gun. No response. It wasn't until the third click that sparks began shooting out, burning through the rifle's casing, and began emanating smoke. Hugh was thankful he had the foresight to don his armor for protection. "...Fried." Hugh heard the sound of sarcastic clapping as he stood up straight and showed the rifle over to Xerosic. As the self-proclaimed scientist stopped recording and took the rifle, Hugh looked over to the clapping Emma, who was sitting down on the steps behind them in her Essentia attire minus helmet, which sat beside her. Mimi the Espurr also sat in front of her, within snuggling range. "Progress!" she teased. "It didn't immediately blow up in your hands!" "Normally, the most people worry regarding firearm use are if the sights are off or the gun jams on you", commented Hugh. " You try constructing laser rifles from scratch!" retorted Xerosic. "It is no small feat, let me assure you!" "Keep this up, and the dangerous gun that can cut through metal will be more dangerous on the end that isn't the barrel", said Emma. She picked up Mimi. "Right, Mimi?" Mimi cried in agreement as Emma cuddled her. Xerosic rubbed his chin in thought while examining a notepad. "Hmm... Perhaps if I tried to work backwards... Alright, go take a water break while I do some tune-ups to model v. 2.02. Remember that every failure is still a sign of progress, as it teaches what shouldn't be done!" Whatever helps you sleep at night.Hugh tossed the broken rifle at a stack of similarly broken rifle at the corner of the room as he walked over the exit. "Come on Emma, it's way too hot in here." "Aye, aye," said the younger girl, slipping her helmet on as she followed behind him with Meowstic in hand.

Vitcity, some restaurant
Julia waves back at Morgan and just smiles... She takes the time to analyze everything that her best friend is wearing, then stops to stare at her face fow a few seconds. She facepalms.
"That's what I forgot! Lipstick!"
She then looks at the restaurant, something she didn't have time to do until now.
"Asian... Should have guessed."
She laughs and moves forward to hold the door for Morgan.
"Ladies first!"

Morgan is a bit confused about Julia holding the door and saying ladies first.
"Wait aren't we both ladies so does that mean?" Morgan wonders aloud.
Morgan then decides she's probably overthinking the situation, "Thank You Julia,".
Morgan begins to stumble her way inside of the restaurant.
"I swear riding on top of a sheep while fighting giant snakes is easier then walking in heels," Morgan tells Julia.
Morgan then begins to become a little too self aware of how she looks. "Umm I didn't overdo this did I?". "Umm I wanted to make sure I looked extra cute and umm this is fine right?" Morgan asks.
"I think you look extremely hot and or umm adorable and or really really good," Morgan mumbles out while blushing.

St. Elne -- Queendom of Yuleia -- Palace Throne Room
"In addition", continued the soldier giving a general status report of general activity outside of the realm, "reports from encampments to the North can confirm that the settlement of Forlon has been destroyed. As no survivors were found, the cause of the attack remains unknown. Camp Mercury to the Northeast also requests a supply shipment of medicine and weapons. A report Masujiro confirms that attacks on trade caravans by terrorist forces have lessened since the patrols along the route have been bolstered." "... I shall arrange the caravan and armed escort to supply Mercury. Tell the northern encampments to search the ruins of Forlon and investigate any damage or remains that may hint at who or what destroyed the village. I am sure Masujiro is well aware, but let him know that his solution is only a dressing on the true problem, and his forces should prioritize finding the terrorist base of operations so that we may neutralize it. The rest are to proceed as they were." "Yes ma'am." The soldier bowed and left the throne room. A few seconds after he was out of sight, Queen Glinda exhaled, leaned back on her seat, and closed her eyes. She was not able to rest long, as another retained knocked on the door and poked in. "Your highness? The ritual has begun." Glinda nodded. "Understood. I shall head down there shortly to greet them personally." "Yes ma'am."
St. Elne -- Queendom of Yuleia -- Ritual Chamber
The soldiers posted around the octagonal room's perimeter jolted and turned to the door with weapons drawn as the old and rusted hinges forced themselves to do their job, loudly straining as a figure pushed on through. Upon seeing the familiar hand of their general pass through the door disarmingly, they lowered their weapons and raised a salute instead. Their hair and looser articles of clothing billowed slightly as a fresh breeze circulated the room.
"General Alvis, sir!" the nearest soldier whispered to the room's newcomer.
"Pardon my tardiness," replied the general. "I trust all is well?"
"Yes sir. The ritual is underway, and we are prepared to defend against any hostilities."
Alvis looked toward the center of the room. A lone woman in ornate white ceremonial garb paced around the rune etched throughout the floor, uninterrupted by Alvis's entrance. Her archaic chanting rises and falls, and her beautiful voice echoed throughout the palace. She traces a thin cord of light where she walks, her treasured staff drawing ancient texts, their meaning lost in time. As she twirled, she briefly looked up and gave a quick smile to Alvis before turning her gaze back down to focus on her duty.
Ever the performer, Cia.
General Alvis walked to the side of the room and joined the soldiers in observing in silence. The soldiers nervously shifted in anticipation, hearts pounding, palms sweaty. Alvis however, keep his breath and mind as calm as can be.

St. Elen. Queendom of Yuleia---Throneroom
A young lady who strongly resembles the queen enters the throne room. The guards let her past upon recognizing the young lady is none other then Princess Lana. Lana is very concerned and worried about her mom and Cia who's been like a second mom to Lana are about to perform the very same ritual. The very same dangerous ritual Lana read all about the ritual summonings in the past and how they lead to the current state of Oz.
Lana enters the room with a look of concern and anxiety.
"Mother is there no other way?" Lana asks very concerned.
"I still think this is a problem that we can handle,". "Placing all our hopes and prayers on a whim, it doesn't sit well with me,". "How do we know these so called hero's would even be willing to help, I for one wouldn't be all too happy if I was yanked from my world all of a sudden,". "How do we even know that they are actual heros we are about to summon and not villains that will destroy our queendom?" Lana asked her mom.
"Please, mother reconsider this action we shouldn't risk the future of our kingdom or the world on such a dangerous move,". "Mother even if this ritual succeeds we might end up working under those that we summon,". "I don't want to lose you or Cia please mother don't do this," Lana pleaded with her mom.

Vitcity
A young man with pitch black hair sits in his shoddy room in his shoddy house late at night. All the lights are off save for a reading lamp on his bedside table.
Tai laid on the edge of his bed studying some general books. He wasn't big on Trivia games, despite his enjoyment of reading even random-ass books. His eyes darted across page after page as he studied.
He yawned, then sighed. He put down his trivia book and put it on the far end of the table, switching it for his journal. He'd planned to document some recenr findings about the otherworld as well as sketch some people he'd recently met.
He wasn't expecting, however, to be met by a flash of light when he opened his journal.
The Hope Guild
Melody was up early that morning practicing her archery. She had all her note beasts of course, but she wanted to learn to defend herself better as well. She didn't want to be a burden to her friends or her note beasts. And that's how she felt as of late. A burden. Someone that needs protecting.
But she wanted to be more useful. So here she was, firing arrow after arrow at the targets. Her aim had gotten pretty good, actually. It was when she begrudgingly decided to ask Diana to act as a sort of moving target that she seemed to really stsrt failing. Diana, the only of her note beasts that could talk, gave her some advice on how to keep her aim steady.
Melody sighed and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before squinting them and aiming towards Diana who was flying a target back aeound back and forth.
She was ready to let the arrow fly when suddenly a light shone upon both of them and her aim faultered. The arrow flew off in some random direction, far from the target that now laid on the ground.
The training grounds were now empty.
