-Issun's fan is able to successfully douse the flames engulfing Herbert, but the damage has been done. He weakly raises a burnt and blistered arm.-
Herbert: Don't worry, I'm okay... I think...

-Ayame is searching the tunnels for Sabaku. At least, that's what she'd like to think she's doing. In reality she's hopelessly lost.-

Nathan had agreed on another session of training his skills with Sophia, mainly to get aqcuainted fully with basic psychokinetic abilities, in the outer regions of the city. Having put th armband on, he had warmed up for the lesson with honing the earlier telekinesis attempts.
Ralts!Nathan: <This is really awkward, being instructed by my own Pokemon.>
Sophia: <We handled telekinetic moving of things last time, now let's try using that energy for offense.>
Ralts! Nathan: <My understanding is it behaves much like a baseball.>
Sophia: <Well, kind of, but delivering it isn't as easy as just making a chunk of energy and throwing. You need to expend some of your own power to it.>
Ralts!Nathan: <Please explain in more detail.>
Sophia: <Focus your psychic energy to your hand. Insert some of your own strength to it.>
Nate concentrated, feeling a spark trvel his arms as a clairvoyant orb of generous size appeared in his hand.
Ralts!Nathan: <I'm really doing this, aren't I?>
Sophia: <Now dispose of that ball, it is purposefully unstable. Throw it at something, like that wall!>
Nate did feel the psychokinetic ball getting very dangerus looking, so he heeded the advice and chucked it at the wall, leaving a minor dent.
Ralts!Nathan: <This is just great! I don't mind the size as long as I can launch attacks like that.>
Sophia: <Maybe once you get us to some fights you can do that.>
Harvey: <It's been awfully long since the last time I dueled something, so it would definitely be welcome. You need to get in shape, too.>
Ralts!Nathan: <Wait, what? No, I can't take on other pokemon, not in this form!>
Anita: <That's why he said you should train! Pokemon evolve as they toughen up, yeah? You oughta be wearing a pretty tutu soon too. And some mean psychic punch as well.>
Ralts!Nathan <I don't know, I think Sophia here's a lot more adept at his stuff.>
Sophia: <That's because I've been tested in battles, defending you and your friends. It becomes a necessity for me to keep up with the threats you face, but Harvey's right, we can't be with you everywhere, and when you have to face something alone, you'll want to be ready.>
Ralts!Nathan: <...True.> Nathan removed the armband and turned human.
Nathan: "Thanks for the concern. Now let's go." With that they entered the city again.
The words of his pokemon lingered for some time. Nathan's concern for his own safety, like in the beginning of his adventures, had transformed to concern for his Pokemon's safety, Sophia's most so, and he couldn't tell why.

Gogie: -to Lady- <Yeah, true, but it's slightly different when he calls me Dude as opposed to when he calls others dude. Don't know if I can really explain it, though.>
<And, yeah, I don't really trust myself to get food that way alone anyway. If you want food, I could get some from Crow too or something, but I don't know how much you'll like that.>

Eskay: Knowing our luck, it won't be.
-The Skorupi curls up, "unconscious". A more accurate term would actually be "deactivated".-
Eskay: I guess this is the same thing as the first "trap".
-He picks up the deactivated Skorupi, and clicks it back into the part of the wall it came off of.-
Eskay: Hopefully this—
-He's cut off by the sound of the door just falling out of the frame, cracking as it hits the ground.-
Eskay: ...That was really simple, actually.

-Her smile quickly fades as she remembers the reasons she came down into the tunnels.-
Ayame: Um, moving on. You see, I... I'm here to tell you that I think I know who ordered the assassination.

-Ammy suddenly feels the urge to slap a girl named Penny-
-Ninetails, on the other hand, is gutted by Tagg's strike-
Ninetails: <Urk...>
-Collapses, bleeding profusely-
Heh... At least... I never let them know... Who my true master... Was...
- Grows still-
Ammy: <It's over. She's dead.>
- A glaive appears, labled "Blade of Kusanagi". Ammy equips it wordlessly-
- A dark cloud once again leaves Ninetail's corpse and heads north. A chill runs down Ammy's spine-
<Yet our work is still far from over...>
Issun: <Then no time to [rest] on your laurels! Defeating Ninetails didn't bring [Himiko] back... But at least you can send her spirit off with a heroic [howl!]>
Ammy: -smiles- <Right!>

Rosa: <I-I s-said I wanted my parents to go away! I-I didn't want you to k-kill them!>
-Runs off, sobbing-
