Anistar Pokémon Center
Upon getting there, Dune might be suddenly hugged by Aline.
Anistar Center
Dune: Wah!
-Dune is glomped, taking him by surprise but keeping his feet.-
Deziree: Oh! Aline!
Dune: Aline? Oh, hey!
-Dune hugs back.-
Outside the Illusion HQ
Zrone: "But they're lighting up the landing and boarding sites! I can't just switch them off now! They're set to a timer! Okay the timer is short but in the meantime dance with it~"
-Does the robot-
".... Okay once the songs over I'll just switch back on the normal lights..."
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."Route 18, upper level
Ever: ...Well! That was awful.
Skoll: <I am confused.>
Xanadu, Forest, Sunday
-another hail of attacks rains on Maggie from another tree-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Anistar Pokémon Center
Aline keeps hugging for a few more seconds before breaking the hug so she can write something on her sign
"I missed you two so much! We haven't seen each other in SO long!" she wrote, beaming at them.
Illusion HQ
Echo: ...The music is only making it worse.
Anistar Center
Dune: Hehe, yeah, sorry about that. We...
Deziree: Ended up taking a detour. That ended up taking us into a river. That ended up taking us in the opposite direction we wanted.
Dune: It was weird. And confusing.
Deziree: But we're back!
Dune: Relatively speaking.
Grande Vallee Way
Mezzo: Are they gone?
Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.Xanadu, Forest Sector, yesterday
-Maggie manages to avoid the attacks this time-
Maggie: ...M. Bush, could you-
-She notices M. Bush is once again absent-
Maggie: ...Well, guess I'm doing this alone agai-
-As she tries to prepare an arrow, though, Razor Leaves may come from a nearby green thing the trees may not have noticed before-
"Don't worry, murder is a sign of affection." - An amalgamation of DunsparceOutside the Illusion HQ
-The music cuts out with a record scratch-
Zrone: "You know what FINE! Be that way!"
-The airship eventually stops in front of the base and several staircases shoot out from it and embed themselves in the ground-
".... killjoy."
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."Route 18
Ever: I think so...
Skoll: <I am very tired.>
Xanadu, Forest, Sunday
-the trees shatter into zeros and ones, revealing...-
Fade: <Greetings.>
Toxicroak: <We wondered if you'd show up here.>
Gyru: -just stares, seeming lost in thought-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Anistar Pokémon Center
"I don't care about what happened! I'm just glad you're all right!"
She then proceeds to drop the sign and hug Deziree.
Anistar Center
Deziree: Aaaaaw, we're happy to see you, too!
-Deziree hugs back.-
*Ping!*
Dune: Hehe, yeah.
Grande Vallee Way
Durant: <I'm just tired of paranoia.>
Mezzo: It's not paranoia. That was a perfectly reasonable reaction to Durant.
Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.Illusion HQ
Echo: Thank you.
-She presses the PA system button-
Echo: Attention, all Illusion Project personnel. Zrone has arrived with our airship, which will be leaving tomorrow morning. Please have everything packed and loaded by then. Anything left behind will be disposed of. Thank you.
Xanadu — Past
-Clemont glances at Maggie's sector briefly.-
Clemont: ...Figures, there's three of them there.
-He sighs before returning to trying to figure out the signal mystery-

Outside the Illusion HQ
Zrone: ".... Can I at least play the music and have the rave lights going at the helm?"
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."Anistar Pokémon Center
Aline then breaks the hug and Human!Phantom approaches them, she glances at him and picks up her sign
"Oh yeah, this is Phantom! He's a human now! We borrowed Mr.Duke's armband."
Anistar Center
Dune: Oh! Hi, Phantom.
Deziree: You don't look like anything how Big Dom looked when he was human for April Fool's. Though, on second thought, there might be a reason for that... I'm rambling again, aren't I?
Illusion HQ
Echo: It is nighttime. People are much more likely to investigate rave music and multicolor strobe lights when it's breaking the silence of an otherwise quiet night. The answer is "no".
Anistar Pokémon Center
Phantom waves, his expression still emotionlesss and completely deadpan
"He's kinda like that. It's hard to tell what he's feeling sometimes." Aline then snickers.
Outside the Illusion HQ
Zrone: "I'm above a waterfall and in an Airship with enough space to fit small town in if I laid it out flat they're not going to see lights or hear the music playing inside an airship or my rave flashlight!"
"..."
"Also I suppose I should brief you on the defense system and the onboard weapons but if you're already sick of me that can wait."
"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."Anistar Center
Dune: That's precisely what Dom was like. Only, you couldn't really tell, since he had a helmet on the whole time.
Deziree: The conversion from inorganic to organic tends to... leave a lot behind. It's weird.
Illusion HQ
Echo: My answer remains. And I hope we never have to use the defense system, so that can wait.
Anistar Pokémon Center
"I didn't expect him to look like he's my age though! It's kinda hard to picture him being a Golurk now."
"I guess the benefit of being small is that it's easier to fit in place compared to when I'm three meters tall." signed Phantom.
Illusion HQ
-Echo is silent for a moment, before giving an exasperated sigh-
Echo: ...Turn off the rave lights.
