Elizabeth: "Of course not."

-She lifts Oberon onto her shoulder.-

Elizabeth: "I have Haku, Aristotle, and Olivia, so they should be able to send telepathic messages."

-She turns to Blitz.-

Elizabeth: "Shall we?"

---

Lyra: "Welp. That's not what I was expecting."

-Without even bothering with calculations, she shoots her blasters and a railgun round.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Rey Fort Inside

-Without much more than a nod Pent heads upstairs and starts picking out doors to open-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Blitz: "Yup"

-Blitz and starts marching for the stairs and the 3rd floor, slowing as they near the top to both try and mentally map things out as they proceed and to watch for anything noteworthy, or dangerous-

Fortress - First Floor - Dune, Past

-Dune opens a door to a hall of mirrors made of ice. There is an open arch leading to a room at the end and a set of ice doors at the half-way point. Versailles anyone?-

-Which way do you go?-

Fortress - Second Floor - Pent

-Pent sees a few rooms that seem to be work rooms until he finds a Room that is apparently a Kitchen of sorts.-

-Do you go in? Or keep going?-

Fortress - Second Floor - Ren

-Ren and Rio head down a hall listening for anything.-

Ren: We could REALLY use a sign Kitsune...

Fortress - Third Floor - Blitz

-The doors Blitz opens seen to be living quarters.-

-Do you enter one? Or keep going?-

Dross Tunnels, Dave's Side

".. I don't see an emperor, just an egomaniac with weird hands." And without further ado, Star begins firing on the face.

off the shits

 Malie Outskirts, past 

-One long explanation later-

Now do you understand?

Celesteela: {...}

Muddy: -Noticing sirens from up ahead- <The cops and firefighters are coming, they probably think Helios was a gas main exploding or something.>

Yeah, I doubt they'd be as, er... forgiving of our friend here, and it would be a pain in the ass to deal with Interpol. So...

-To the Celesteela, pulling out a Beast Ball as well as a Poké Bean, which is immediately eaten-

I promise you, stick with us, we'll figure out some way to get you home.

Celesteela: -Staring me directly in the eye, or at least what I think is their eyes- {...I don't fully understand what you're saying, tiny one, and I'm still a little sore that your weird Buzzwole beat me up, but if it gets me home, I'll take it. Also, this thing tastes delicious.}

...You'll see. Consider this protective custody for the time being.

-Tosses the Beast Ball at the Celesteela-

Wobble...

Wobble...

Wobble...

Click!

So, it's done then. Xatu, I know you're probably around here somewhere, get us to the Stormchaser.

Xatu: -Blip-

 Malie, today 

-Looking at the two Beast Balls-

Exgal is technically under the whole J-Team's custody, I just hold the ball, but what are we to do with our other new friend?

Muddy: <They are a bit too big to release aboard the Stormchaser. Have you told the others yet?>

Haven't gotten around to it, I've been a bit distracted by Ann's birthday and the disaster relief, and we don't have to worry about getting influenced by mind-control neurotoxin. Actually I'm kinda surprised no one's come to text me yet since apparently the fight climax made the news, though they have no idea it was us.

-Folding arms behind head-

It'll be easier once we reach Poni, that island's almost deserted.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

-Elizabeth also looks at the door and follows Blitz either way he goes.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Reynardine Fortress, Past

-Dune sighs.-

Dune: Great, one of my greatest architectural hatreds manifested by one of my most hated materials.

-Dune, keeping a very close eye on the mirrors, creeps his way to the midway door and peeks inside.-

Blitz: "Well, assuming our charmer has any... 'romantic' intentions today. I'd say we might be on the right track"

-After a moment's consideration, Blitz goes for one of the chambers on the left-

Reynard Fortress - Second Floor

-Pent is totally gonna check the kitchen, yep!-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

First Floor - Dune

-Dune enters a grand hall with domed vaulted ceilings, Magnificent chandeliers, and the floors are actually patterened with four different types of ice with different opacities. Behold. The Grand Ballroom-

-There are "glass" doors that lead into the interior courtyards and gardens. And there are two doors at the far corners of the Grand Ballroom.-

-What do you do?-

Second Floor - Pent

-Pent enters the Kitchen and sees a female Glaceon using Icy Wind to smooth out the counters.-

-The Glaceon's eyes are glazed over as she sings while she cleans the Kitchen.-

-The Glaceon looks directly at Pent several times but never seems to register that he's there.-

-What do you do?-

Thrid Floor - Blitz and Elizabeth

-The Room they enter is decorated with Alolan Sandshrew motifs. A chess set of opaque and clear ice sits on a table with luminous blue moss in it. The bed has mounds of warm pelts on it.-

-It seems that this room has seen use in the last few days.-

-What do you do?-

Oberon: <Mayhaps we should look for clues?>

Elizabeth: "Anything out of place...What do you think, Blitz?"

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

-Glöckchen, although feeling an urge to sing a certain song badly at someone, checks out one of the far doors-

Phaz merely blinks.

Phaz: "...You look ridiculous Alexander. You're also making yourself a perfect target. Shame you got the crippling idea of "lez maek week poin". You could've been a true genius."

He warms up his nuzzle weapon.

"Instead, you look like you've been flirting with la veuve."

Gladion: -to everyone but Hephaestus- ...Are you guys all OK?

Archer: We're fine...

Locke: ...In a sense.

-Krieg wakes up, dazed.-

Krieg: Ye-yeah......no........ I'm sorry........

-Krieg is taken to the infirmary by the grunts, and Al teleports to keep a watch on Hephaestus.-

My heart and actions are utterly unclouded. They are all those of 'Justice'.

Blitz: "Hm... No Kitsune here I guess"

-Blitz sticks his hands in his heated pockets as he glances around the room-

"Don't want to take too long, but might as well check for any hints or secret passages before we move on"

-Blitz starts with pulling aside the pelt mounds being used as bedding, and will move on to checking under the bed if nothing seems noteworthy-

-While doing that- "Oh, and try the closet or something. Maybe we can guess who's room this is supposed to be if there's any clothes laying around"

Dave's Side - Dross Depths

Alexander let out a laugh, the room shook, "A sense of humor you have. Good, in the face of destruction."

The rounds harmlessly bounced off the giant face, the hands, and went nowhere. It seemed Alexander had truly learned his lesson. A hand swiped down as another shot lasers from its fingertips, no laser lenses to be seen.

Alexander wasn't laughing, "I promised you all that I did learn. I wanted one last little bit of fun, seeing you all fight one last superweapon before coming to face me. I fear I would never have a chance again after this."

Silas's Side - Dross Depths

Silas ignored the comment, "So you know where I'm from?"

"Oh yes. It took me some time, I've dreadfully screwed up spacetime for this universe... but that will all be fixed."

The right hand pointed, and a portal opened, it depicted a small blue planet against a black backdrop of space, a single greyish white moon could be seen. The Portal appeared to zoom, and a rocket with a similar blue plume was there.

"Home..."

Silas couldn't stop his jaw from dropping.

Dave's Side

Alexander stopped for a moment and smirked, "You know, I do have one thing to offer you all. I will forgive all your transgressions if you surrender now... and I will even give you a boon as a merciful leader."

His right hand made a pointer finger, a portal opened, depicting Earth.

"Your home. Think about it, you could go back, and under my rule your world would prosper... Do you accept?"

Silas's Side

Silas looked it over, Alexander had a softer genuine smile. "Just surrender now and let me finish, you should know how little of a chance you have... I will let you go home, and I will come to your universe later... I can't just leave just yet. Now... do you accept?"

Silas needed little thought.

"No."

Planet Dross, Tunnels, Dave's Side

Alyesha also needed little thought, firing her long range cannon again, this time aiming towards the mouth of the giant face.

Gladion: -sighs- We're gonna need repairs. And to get you guys home. And get that guy in custody.

Helmsman embarked from here Hephaestus was, and approached Silvally. <My trainer's been interested in you and your trainer; I think he likes you,> he explained.

<There's gotta be someway our trainers can keep in touch. Wait, can he understand Pokémon?> He asked while pointing to Gladion.

Meanwhile

Colton paused for a moment. "Wait, is your foot still tender? I don't even know if you can feel it anymore, but the point still stands."

[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]

Dross Depths - Dave Team

"No... you wouldn't be so easily bought out by that would you... After all. You only got in this mess because you and your friend Mia wanted help searching for someone."

A smaller portal appeared before Dave, depicting a pocket dimension of sorts, familiar faces to Dave stuck inside.

"I could free them you know... not only free them but get you all out safely. Do you really trust anyone else to get you home securely, especially when I already show control?"
