ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Dream Terrera

-Dune's eyes shoot wide.-

Dune: Oh! I know them. We, uh, have had some interesting adventures. Psyche even, er, "taught" me to use sign language. Sorta.

Aiura nods. "I see. Keep an eye on them for me, ok? I've had the strangest feeling that the last one I charged with that duty has been... slack."

Ecruteak City

Jacob: -Is now wandering around-

Edge': -Has managed to get into a tree and is reading a newspaper-

Dream Terrera

Dune: Not a problem. Both of them have had... rough childhoods, from what I understand. I don't want them to have to live like that anymore.

-Sabaku hides a proud smile behind his glass.-

Aiura smiles and nods. "Thank you for that, my good man. Well, Sabaku, I must take my leave. I will see you later, perhaps."

Dream Terrera

Sabaku: Warm sands, Aiura. If you see Lucy, tell her I said "hi".

Dune: Also, tell her Deziree says "hi" as well. She'll know who she is.

Aiura smiles. "Thank you, both of you, I'll be sure to let her know you two said hi."

Dream Terrera

Sabaku: Oh, don't thank me. He's the one who gets to play babysitter.

Dune: I'd rather not think of it like that.

Sabaku: I'm sure you don't.

Ecruteak

-Crewe is asleep either in a tree or on a rooftop-

Ecruteak City

-MGMT is around, singing and generally being annoying to serious people and Pokemon.-

Ecruteak

-MGMT may pass by Umbra-

Ecruteak City

-MGMT looks at Umbra-

-He ceases singing-

-He pulls a mandolin out of nowhere-

-He strums exactly once for his attention-

Near MGMT

Umbra: Hmm?

Ecruteak City

-MGMT clears his throat, and starts singing...-

MGMT: Way back in Dragnor one fine summer's night,
The Dragon King Kaius was worn out from a fight
A fateful encounter occurred, so they say,
While his wife, Lady Lina, was out and away

When suddenly, on his door, tap-tap-tap-tap
Woke him before his sleep could be called a "nap"
He opened the door, and who did he find,
But the Ghost Lord, the ruler of all demonkind!

He readied his sword and asked, "Why are you here?"
But the Ghost Lord dismissed it with "Please have no fear,
I come with a gift, a sort of change of my ways,
And there really is something I've wanted to say."

The Master of Demons then opened a box,
with "To Kaius, from a reformed Joseph Nox"
He then held the good man at rose-point and said,
"Will you please join me, the Lord of the Dead?"

The Dragon King, needless to say, he was stunned —
The Ghost Lord wanted to join him as one!
But alas, they each already had their own wives
And with all the times he'd been threatened with knives,

He stepped back, he looked down, and he shook his head
And he said, "I'm so sorry, O Lord of the Dead,
But after our past, our future is doomed
To be battles and battles 'til we end in our tombs"

The Ghost Lord, in sadness, he set down the rose
And left having known they were doomed to oppose
But it's said, the next day, at the Ghost Lord's home
Lord Kaius had come... with a rose of his own!

-He finishes his song, and bows.-

Raziel: -has exited the cafe with his Pokemon in their balls except for Enjolras and hears the singing, approaches MGMT at the final verse and starts clapping- That was rather good, sir.

Near MGMT

-Umbra's expression goes from :? to :| to >:| to    >:(    -

-By the end of the song he is very much seething-

Umbra:    Where did you learn that song, you miserable wretch of a lamprey?   

Ecruteak City

Edge: -Is by Umbra and MGMT, having listened to the whole song-

<....PffffffffffffAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA GAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHH oh WOW, so something I wrote really did survive! AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHH oh dear Arceus this is too much....>

Raziel: -eyes widen a bit at the Mood Whiplash, but he's too interested now to leave-

Enjolras: -tilts head at the lyrics- <I don't get it?>

Ecruteak City

-MGMT gives the Eelektross equivalent of a trollface and signal-flashes his answer-

MGMT: [A little bard told me.] o3o

-He absconds-

Near MGMT

Umbra: -still seething- That was a terrible pun! And shut up, Celzvet!

Ecruteak Pokémon Center

Sakura is in the lobby, sitting on a table with a bunch of Poké Puffs on it.

Enjolras: -tilts head even further- <A little bard? What?>

Raziel: -chuckles at the face MGMT makes and hands him a coin as a tip for the song, but stays after doing so because why not?-

Ecruteak City

Edge: <Okay that pun was awfu->

<Alright Umbers, time to skedadle!> -Turns around and bolts straight into, then bounces straight off of a tree-

<Ow...>

Current Time

-Pent, having heard the song, walks over-

Okay, I really gotta hear the story about this one.

Raziel: -looks over, sees Pentigram, and shrugs- Beats me.
