ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Zeta: -to Psyche- Calm down there! The INP are on their way, and you don't want to be in a compromising position when they arrive, now, do you?

Zeta: -to Deimos- Huh. I thought I heard your boss up and left you little pricks. No, wait, it was that Trainer, what'serface... DS! That's it! Taken down by a single person. Honestly. Plus, you folks are too damn overt. I'm sorry, but you move that publicly, you act the nail that is sticking out, well, you're gonna get hammered down. Really, it's just sloppy technique and bad business practices, all around. It makes me cringe just to watch it. And, honestly, I respect you for your ambition- re-writing reality and all that. I'll admit it, ya got balls. But after that failed the first time, you might want to either scale back a bit, or at least try something new. Seriously. I mean, what's the definition of insanity again? Doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result. It's pitiful, really.

-Florence is hit, and reduced to the red-

And being a former Milotic, you know how we take Special hits, correct?

Okay, use Recover!

-Florence glows gold and regains health-

Driftveil

Jacob: "I won using a Metagross and a Gardevoir. There's something to be said about going up against a ground-type Gym Leader, leading with a Metagross and winning. Either the skill of the trainer or the Gym system needs some over-haulng."

Driftveil

Doesn't hurt that Argentum is one of the strongest Metagross I've seen in a long time.

Black City, Abandoned Warehouse

-Deimos does not have time to respond to all the threats due to Pallad's mind linkage-

Deimos: Wait, what are you-

-Sarah is linked to Deimos' mind, and his memories start to flash through her head... a young boy on a playing field, being assaulted for his pocket change... a pair of Galactic Grunts stealing a trainer's Pokemon... an elderly man, bleeding on the floor from a dozen separate puncture wounds, whilst a familiar-looking young boy with black hair and grey eyes cries over his corpse...

...and then Herbert gives a yell at the group-

Herbert: Psyche, Sarah, control yourselves, would you? He's just trying to get you riled up. We need him alive. No matter how much I'd prefer him dead. Just keep him alive until-

-suddenly, two men in trenchcoats and fedoras burst into the room-

Officer 1: Freeze! International Police!

Officer A: We're here to arrest Galactic Grunt Deimos on multiple counts of assault and illegal smuggling of Pokemon!

Herbert: He's all yours, officers. Just make sure you interrogate him well.

-the officers nod at Herbert, and then place the still-shocked Deimos in handcuffs-

Driftveil Gym

Stunfisk: <But I don't know any physical Electric-type moves!> D:

Clay: "Try Thunderbolt!"

-Stunfisk shoots electricity at Florence-

-Florence is dropped to low health-

Hmm. Unfortunate, really.

Come back, Florence, and get in there, Scarlett!

Scarlett: Yay! :D

Zeta: Well, then, if there's no further connection to Cipher here, I shall take my leave.

Zeta: -to Herbert- Please inform Sam and those not present that I am going on ahead a little, and will wait for the group in Undella Town.

| She exits the building, headed for Route 14.

Feel free to interrupt her before she exits the city

Driftveil

Jacob: "I suppose that's true. Not nearly in the same league as Pallad though...."

Driftveil City

And? Beating the gym with a Metagross isn't that spectacular. It's like beating an Ice gym with a Hydreigon. Sure, it's a type disadvantage, but it's more than powerful enough to make up for that.

Candice: Did someone say something about Ice gyms?

-yes, Mezzo's group has just bumped into Candice's group-

Wait. Aren't you a gym leader in Sinnoh?

Pianis: Hi, Piano. She's here for the tournament.

Driftveil Gym

Clay: "Heh, use Bounce!"

-Stunfisk leaps into the air-

Warehouse

Sarah: -removes her swords, which have not actually done any damage.- ...That's all? Hm. I've seen things just as horrible.

-Her eyes flash again as she puts her swords away.-

-Scarlett looks up-

Huh?

Um...do something!

Okay!

-Scarlett uses Quiver Dance-

Route 14

| Zeta has stopped on her way to Undella Town in order to train, both herself and her team. She practices on trees, they practice on wild Pokemon.

Driftveil

(to Jacob) Eh. I dunno.

(notices the others) Oh, hey. -blinks at Candice- I remember you!

Driftveil Gym

-Stunfisk tries to Bounce down on Scarlett-

Warehouse

-Caliburn and Europa return to Straw. Caliburn sees Sarah-

Caliburn:<...Skye? Are you okay?>

Driftveil

Jacob: -To Mezzo- "I suppose that's tr-"

-Suddenly, other group!-

-Looks at Candice unimpressed- "....Who is she? Wait, she's part of the World Tournament? Well alright then."

Black City, Abandoned Warehouse

Officer 1: We'll take care of the crime scene and forward the details of the investigation to you.

Officer A: You kids should run along now, it's probably past your bedtime.

-Deimos is lead out of the room by the police, still looking somewhat shocked by the whole affair-

Herbert: ...Some things never change. Anyway, were you guys able to tell if Zeal was alright? Last I checked, Carol's Audino was looking after him, but he didn't seem to be doing so well...

-he looks over at Sarah-

Herbert: You okay? Deimos was trying really hard to get you agitated there. I'm sorry I couldn't let you get your own back.

-Scarlett is getting Quiver-hyper-

Teeheeheeheeheehee!

-sees the Stunfisk coming and dodges-

Can't catch meeee!

-releases Sleep Powder-

Driftveil Gym

Stunfisk: <NO!>

-falls asleep-

Driftveil

-Glöckchen rings her bell-

Warehouse

-Sarah looks at Herbert-

Sarah: Shame he only ended up disappointing me. And no, I don't think I am okay.

-She points to the poisoned scratch on her neck, then turns to Caliburn-

Sarah: I'm not Skye. She's with Diane. It's a long story why I'm like this, but I'm Eskay. But call me Sarah for now.

Now Quiver Dance some more, then Petal Dance!

Scarlett: Wheeeeee!

-uses Petal Dance-

Driftveil City

Candice: My name is Candice, and I'm the Gym Leader of Snowpoint City. A pleasure to meet you!

Fortis: Hi, Piano! Hi, mister Every! Hi, mister Jacob!

Hi.

Warehouse

Sam runs in, and stops to catch his breath

"Guys! huff Sorry, on the other side of town puff ran right over. when I heard wheeze sorry." he gasped.
