-As the group goes through, they would notice that the fog seems to be heavy, but as it's scanned it would likely look more like a grassy area with a few trees-

-Mendel's scan would likely pick up two Shadows a distance away, though it'd be too far to identify them-

She heads towards the door, sunglasses already on.

-Pent slips through the door without a word-

-And emerges here, monocle on-

Hm... Nothing obvious yet...

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-Joseph's rose colored glasses become fogged from the area-

Joseph: Oh? Well...doesn't feel like a city.

Jacob: -Looking around, after donning his specs- "... Interesting. The fog is thick."

Verax: -Playing with his eyewear- "THE SKY IS BLUE. Yeah duh the fog is thick we're not blind."

Jacob: "Could have fooled me."

Down: -To Ark- <That's a very good question>

Blitz: "My name is Blitz, and yes, I can understand all of you"

-He smiles-

"Don't think I've met a human speaking monese before." -He looks to the Zorua- "She's your sister?"

Mendel: Good news and Bad news. Good News is Pythagoras range seems to have gotten a a bit bigger since the toy store. Bad news is that I'm seeing two shadows on my radar but they are too far away to be properly scanned.

Ren: Grass and trees and a natural fog...

-in a sing-song tone- The way is dark,
The light is dim,
But now there's you, me, her, and him.
The chances look small,
The choices look grim,
But everything you learn there
Will help when you return there.

-Joseph tilts his head, grabbing a fistful of cereal-

Is that a Broadway thing?

CU, Grassland

-Amusingly enough, there is a city, but it is in the direction opposite where the Shadows are-

SleepyHead: <Guess we should head in that direction, then?>

"That's a beautiful stanza, Ren. Maybe you can sing these shadows into submission."

Pictures Ren as a Jigglypuff.

"...Cute?"

GIVE ME YOUR FACE

Ren: I enjoyed Into the Woods. It had a great moral. But as for singing shadows into submission, Izanagi isn't able to use Round.

Mendel: That reminds me! In addition to being able to use the natural movesets of the Pokemon they emulate...

Jacob: "The conjecture is pointless, I think heading to that city and away from the enemy sounds smart." -He nods- "Thank you, Mendel. And please, call me Jacob. The only people who call me Mr. Iridis have tried to kill me."

Verax: "Darn. I kinda wanted to punch things." -He gives Mendel a curt nod- "Thanks! I'll keep it in mind."

CU

-Two voices which people might recognize as having heard recently before entering the door-

??? 1: <Ugh, going away? How boring can you be?>

??? A: <Just when we thought we were going to have some fun...>

-SleepyHead freezes as she hears the voices-

-Mendel might notice the Shadows are coming closer and be able to scan them-

"Meh, I'll play it safe for now as well. There's plenty of time to debut my new asskickin' beard."

He runs a hand through the patchy mess on his face that he somehow thinks constitutes a "beard".

CU, ???

-Mendel's eyes widen at the sudden change of the Shadows' position on his display Shilouettes appear as Mendel scans.-

Mendel: I've got two Luxray-like shadows in the immediate area and closing in quickly! They seem to be chained to a polygonal shape. I'll need visuals for more intel!

-Ren' card appears in the air in front of and he slashes it with his cane.-

Ren: Pokesona!

-Izanagi appears above Ren and poised to defend from a strike.

Ren: Great, a welcome party...

-Lisa summons Titan-

-SleepyHead summons Camazotz after a bit-

-The Shadows come into view and as they do, it is noted that they bear a great resemblance to Foudre, though they wear a blank mask where her face would normally be-

-At close distance, it is clear the polygonal shape Mendel mentioned is a ball and chain attached to them, said ball and chain looking rather like Psyche's face making this◊ expression-

SleepyHead: ...This is what she meant?

Lisa: <...Oh, great, there's more of her.>

-Ark and Kiaran gave identical stares of mistrust at Blitz as they weighed the options they had at this point. It was around a minute before Ark hesitantly opened her mouth to speak-

Ark: <If you could get us to somewhere less populated by humans then I will...> -she made a face like she tasted something sour- <... talk.>

-Kiaran turns to Ark in shock-

Kiaran: <S-sister? Are you positive about this? How do we know this isn't a trap!>

Ark: <One human is easier to take care of then twenty. Besides this one seems...> -she tilts her head quizzically. <... different.>

-Barclay has started helping Ralli prod at Verigan in an attempt to snap him out of confusion at this point and turns back to shout-

Barclay: <Just lemme know when ye finally stop being drama queens over there.>

-Pythagoras displays the new intel.-

Mendel: Those are Niazam Beasts. They are electric-types with Guts as their ability. Pythagoras says we can take them, but I say we still need to be careful in battle.

-Ren and Izanagi eye the beast as Izanagi really doesn't have any reliable offensives moves to use atm.-

Jacob: -He points at the two Shadows with an open hand- "Alright, Pyro Jack! Heat Wave!"

Pyro Jack: <Hee hee! Hoo hoo! Where the fire stops, nobody knows!>

-The Mismagius plushie raises it into the air as a wave of intense heat comes over the Shadows-

Verax: "Alright, let's go Take-Mikazuchi!" -He crushes his card as the Cubone appears-

"KICK IT!"

-Take-Mikazuchi smiles and performs a low kick on the closest Shadow-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

-the sound of footsteps approaches the room's entrance, but only a faint shadow can be seen. the figure seems humanoid, though their right arm appears to terminate in a point instead of a hand, and wings are vaugely visible-

??: <...>

-after a few seconds, they back away into the inky darkness again-

??: <they're just humans. and pets. they did turn on the passage lights though.>

????: <we don't need this. let's just scare them away.>

-An electric-guitar version of Toccata And Fugue in D minor pierces the darkness-

Dave: ...They're using technology?
