ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Illusio

Aiura is standing here, confused as hell. The Diadem has fallen off at some point, lost to her forever.

Holon City

-Alice gives a faint smile.-

Alice: I am fairly certain that looking pretty does not rank highly in Arsenic's list of priorities.

Arsenic: <Damn right it doesn't.>

Alice: She is rather more competitively-oriented, especially with regards to battling. Nevertheless, I am sure she appreciates the compliment. Might I ask which species of Pokemon you received for a starter?

Illusio - Around 600 years ago

-Aiura may hear someone clearing their throat behind her.-

Dragnor

Ammy: <We'll stick around a bit, see if anyone else needs help, maybe let Herbert talk to Lucanus, plus something I want to take care of when we reach the coast.>

-By now they are in a Dragnorian city, with people cheering the company as they pass. Waka is in his human form to blend in-

Waka: Seems you have become quite famous, Amaterasu.

Issun: <Yeah! It's nice! Though you got a little [help] from me~>

Ammy: -smirks- <Who knew a girl from a post-apocalyptic alternate universe could do so much?>

Infinite Tower

Umbra: You can keep it.

Umbra's Castle

- Duolis grabs her things as Oldur slithers behind her-

Duolis: Trust me, I'm already doing that.

- She starts walking out-

I guess this is goodbye, Amhlaidh...

Holon City

Umbra: -sighs dejectedly- I've been wondering about that for the past three months...

Illusio

Aiura turns around to see Lucanus, tears in her eyes. "You... dumbass."

Holon City

Sakura then stops to think for a moment "Considering Grant looks like an Arcanine... Well, let's play around with the truth." she thought, before giving her answer "A Growlithe, you can guess who gave it to me." she giggles.

14 years ago, Azalea Town

-a boy and a Tropius are looking through junk in their attic-

9-Year-Old!Tangent: Ooh, a record player... a lamp... a cannon?

Basket: <That looks dangerous!>

9-Year-Old!Tangent: Maybe we shouldn't touch the cannon.

Dragnor - Around 600 years ago

-Herbert waves to the crowd as they pass through.-

Herbert: Finally, we're getting some recognition for everything. Though I already know that I don't end up in the history books... ah well. If there's anything I've learnt, it's that fame just paints a bullseye on your back.

Holon City

-Alice tilts her head.-

Alice: A relative of yours, perhaps? I am unsure I follow your line of questioning.

Illusio - Around 600 years ago

-Lucanus gives a small sigh. He is paler than usual, with a large bandage wrapped around his chest, but appears to be in good health despite his injuries.-

Lucanus: ...I suppose I have a lot of explaining to do, don't I?

Holon City Hospital

Crow: "Yes, but that probably means he might be off doing evil stuff elsewhere..."

Holon City

Maggie: "Yeah..."

"Well, hopefully they're taking care of whatever is going on wherever they are and come back soon."

Dream World

- Candida, Eli and Sunburst are sort of just hanging out, eating ice cream -

Eli: <Ah! I dropped my spoon!>

Sunburst: <Dude, no problem. Candida will get you another one, won't you, big sis?>

Candida: (nods) <Sure!> (swims off in mid-air)

Sunburst: <So... Anyways, I hear DS brought HotStuff out of PC storage recently. Guess that means she won't be using me any time soon...>

Eli: <Oh, don't feel bad...>

- Candida returns... with a fork -

Eli: (looks over at Candida) <No, we asked for a spoon. You know, because ice cream?>

Candida: <Oh, right!> (swims off again)

Eli: <... While ice cream in the real world is kind of too cold for me, the ice cream here in the Dream World is pretty good.>

Sunburst: <Yeah, plus it doesn't melt before I get to eat it.>

- Candida returns again, this time with an ice cream scoop which she puts down on the table -

Candida: (seeming rather proud of herself) <Spoon!>

Holon City

"Oh? I thought Grant's appearance would be a hint, but you're still right, Grant's family." said Sakura, smiling.

Illusio

Aiura stops him with a kiss. "You don't have to explain anything to me. You're a a dumbass and a jerk, I wanted to strangle you, I wanted to cry and kick the wall, and no one has ever made me feel like that before. But, I still love you. I always have, and I always will."

Dragnor

-To Herbert-

A wise lesson, to be sure.

-Sighs-

I can't wait to get back, I hope my mons haven't gotten into too much trouble in my absence, I think this is the longest I've been away from them since I became a trainer.

Dragnor - Around 600 years ago

-Herbert starts to deflate slightly.-

Herbert: Yeah... I wonder how my Pokemon have been getting on without me. Hopefully they're alright... I guess we'll find out when we get back and finally get to see everyone again.

Holon City

Alice: Ah, I see. I assumed he was some sort of close relation, but did not bring the matter up, since making incorrect assumptions is something of a pet peeve of mine.

Illusio - Around 600 years ago

-Lucanus goes his trademark shade of red as Aiura kisses him, then gives a small smile.-

Lucanus: ...Thank you, I suppose? For what it's worth, the feeling is mutual. Well, the feelings regarding love and the reciprocation thereof, at least.

Illusio

Aiura smiles. "That said..." She punches Lucanus in the face. "YOU DUMBASS. YOU DON'T EVEN WRITE ONCE? DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS? I GOT POSSESSED BY AN ANCIENT EVIL ARTIFACT TRYING TO KEEP AN EYE ON YOU!"

Holon City

"I see, well, I've had the Growlithe since I was four, initially he was just a pet, but he grew to become quite the powerhouse." said Sakura.

Dragnor, 600 years ago

-Monos is there-

Monos: Well, that was rather invigorating.

Holon City

Umbra: I hope so too...

Holon City

Alice: Hmm. I suppose Arsenic is a similar case, at least with regards to power. Though there is a reason for that, considering that she was not originally raised as a pet and happens to be older than I am.

Illusio - Around 600 years ago

-Lucanus topples over backwards upon being punched, clutching his nose.-

Lucanus: OW! In my defence, I did write to you once. Though that was only to let you know that I might have died, which likely only served to make you more worried. So I suppose that really doesn't excuse anything. And wait you said something about evil magical artifacts?

-Joseph ruffles Crow's head-

It's okay. We'll probably come across him again!

AU, Celestial Tower

Hakamori and Elder Taep have finally finished writing the diplomatic message, after much argument over semantics and phrasing.

They give it to a messenger Golbat, who flies for the DST at once. He is accompanied by an Elegyem, who is making sure that he flies undetected.

AU, Edge Of DST Territory

The Golbat and Elegyem are here.

Holon City

"I've depended a lot on him on my early battles, but I now have a lot of tough Pokémon as well, even though I don't usually battle unless someone challenges me." said Sakura, with a cheerful smile.

Holon City Hospital

-Crow's head is ruffled-

Crow: "Maybe... Not sure if that's good or bad, though."

Holon City

Alice: Hmm.

-Alice looks vaguely disdainful, but says nothing and decides to take the conversation down a different route.-

Alice: I think I should be visiting the J-Team member who is currently recuperating in the hospital soon. If only to ask him a couple of questions and answer any he may have in return.

Holon City

"Who was it that was hospitalized?" asked Sakura.
