ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

"No, Joe. Thank you. Thank you for being my better half, for finding me, for saving me from the shadows. I will always love you, as the brightest thing I could ever have. Thank you."

Elsewhere in Gateon

Peon: "A-Ack! Stay back! Stay BACK!"

-And frantically lobs a Snag Ball, which is swatted aside by...-

<Kat: "   YOU...   ">

-Oh dear...-

<Kat: "   YOU'RE THE REASON WHY I HAVEN'T GOTTEN MARRIED YET!   "> D:<

Peon: "I said back, you damn lizard!"

-And fishes out a stun prod and swings it-

-And finds that half of it has been broken off from a telescoping joint down by another Marowak's bone-

<Rising Star: "Really now, what did you expect that to do to mons like us? This isn't your pictureboxes, you know!"> >:|

Peon: "Wh-What? I don't eve-"

<Kat: "   THIS IS FOR MAKING ME WAIT!   "> D:<

-And turns to see a Marowak bearing her club towards his helmet-

Peon: "Aw fu-"

-Joseph smiles and kisses Pi-

-this time, it's still gentle, but much more confident-

-Merasmus and Catherine take either side, and blips them back...-

Phenac Center, Joe's Room

-to here, before bliping to the other side of the door-

-Merasmus flips the sign on the door to say "Do Not Disturb"

Catherine: <I'd say you're giving them the wrong idea.>

Merasmus: <Joseph and Pi?>

Catherine: <No, them.>

Merasmus: <Oh, them. Well, they're simply sleeping, are they not?>

Catherine: <Yes, but do they know that?>

Merasmus: <Now they do.>

- Nods my head slightly -

O-Okay...

- Is worried I might lose my grip in the process, but manages to reach my hand out and grab Tagg's hand -

Ark of Yamato

"I don't know, we didn't exactly look around it." said Lyuri, looking somewhat impressed

"I can check." said Neon

He then starts looking around while Lyuri and Duke stay with Herbert

"At least the raid was succesful for the most part, Cipher is definitely going down." said Duke

"Yeah, but Allen plans on making Cipher 2.0..." said Lyuri

"Then we just have to stop him before he does, right?" asked Duke

Lyuri sighs and gives a small smile "... Pretty much."

Psyche recoils from the smack and winces. ~Ow! Ow! Ow! Yes! It's me! That really hurt! ~ She grits her teeth. Eskay will notice her left hand suddenly grabbing his wrist.

Ark of Yamato

-Ellen has returned here-

Phenac Pokemon Center

Eskay: Sorry about that. Now, um, I'd like my hand back.

Operations HQ, Blobble Room

Diesel: <...You again.>

Blobble:    <Me.>   

-the two stare at each other for a moment, at which point Every's remaining mons enter the room-

Jab: <...Oh, this guy.>

Solace: <So are we here to save him, or...?>

Diesel: <No, we're just taking him down.>

Jab: <Now that's what I like to hear.> -Hones Claws-

Nitro: (to Blobble) <If you're good, I can have you be remembered in sculpture.>

Mix: <I don't think I want to remember this guy. :3>

Drift: -shrugs- <Frillish.>

Blobble:    <Fools. I've attained power you can only dream of! It's time to—>   

Diesel: <Hmph. Nitro, Jab, mind getting him tied up?>

Nitro: <Right!> -finishes a small sculpture of Blobble being pummeled by attacks, and goes to freeze the Reuniclus with Jab's help-

Diesel: <Now, uh...Drift, you carry him.>

Drift: <...Lish?>

Diesel: <Yep. Let's get out of here.>

Ark of Yamato

-Rather surprisingly, Herbert gives a small smile.-

Herbert: ...Good. Let him build his own little Cipher. He'll be easier to find that way. One man can pretty much disappear from the face of the planet if he tries hard enough. An entire organisation can't.

Operations HQ

Crow: "..."

Triton: "You don't get to call me that. You can call me Triton or nothing at all."

"And I don't care what you claim you've done or how many people you claim to have saved. I know what you're really feeling. I don't see why you would ever feel sorry for what you've done."

"But, no, I'm not going to kill you. That would be too easy on you."

"You are going to be experiencing every bit of emotional pain you and the rest of Cipher put others through."

Psyche grits her teeth tighter and stares at her hand . ~I can't. She's got control of the left hand... Gah, no, no!~ She tries to gain control, but she ends up smashing the Baltoy's Pokeball.

Operations HQ

-Pulls DS up... just in time to see Tokarev and his mons manage to make their way inside the pod (Which happens to have a life support system on board), which then lifts off-

Shit. Unfortunately I doubt shock and blood loss will take care of the rest.

Gateon Port

-the Bibarel that went missing earlier is currently in the middle of a street facing down a Walrein, Garbodor, Gastrodon, and Glalie with a Luxray, Kricketune, and Staraptor-

Marvin: <I thought he would be here...>

Serge: -firing a Thunderbolt at the Walrein- <Stop mumbling, Marvin!>

Lauren: -using Bug Buzz on the Gastrodon- <Yes, we're a little busy, Marv, please focus...>

Cesar: -charging up to the Walrein and using Close Combat- <Would all of you focus?!>

Spencer: -cheering from Hunter's shoulder- <Go! Go Team Charge! Beat 'em up!>

Operations HQ

- Notices the escape pod taking off -

Huh? Didn't you...?

Phenac Pokemon Center — Past

Eskay: ...And such is why I never want to make you angry, Caroline.

Operations HQ

Verax: -Scrambles backwards- "I-I mean it though...! W-Wait! I'm begging you, I know I deserve it b-but please! D-Don't you have empaths like Ralts on y-your team? T-They can prove I-I'm remorseful! I-I can change just please..!"

Operations HQ

I didn't, I had to save you.

Operations HQ

-Every's nonflyers are now leaving the base, picking off any remaining Peons or mons they see-

Diesel: <I wonder how everyone's doing with the Latios...>

Psyche looks around nervously. ~She got what she wanted. I can't recall Jack in the Baltoy any more. My move...~

Operations HQ

Triton: "I don't need a Ralts, I am an empath. How do you think I figured out what you did to your Hydreidon back in Holon?"

Citadark Isle

-Straw is nearing the ark, when Taylor suddenly speaks-

Taylor:Straw...can you do me one last favor?

What is it?

Taylor:Purify Calypso and Crimson...they don't deserve to be permanently Shadow.

I will.

Taylor:Thank you...maybe then I won't have so much on my conscience... -She turns to Artemis, and hugs her, knowing that she won't last much longer-

Artemis:-hugs Taylor- <It'll be alright Taylor...you can make it through this... At least...I hope so.>

-She feels Taylor's body go limp-

Artemis:<...No. No...Taylor, wake up! You can't die now!> -tearing up-

-Straw reaches back and touches Taylor, recognizing the feeling of death from his own brushes with it-

Artemis...she's gone.

-Artemis just cries over Taylors body as Straw lands Europa on the Ark of Yamato-

Ark of Yamato

"I guess there's that too, that's one way to know where he is." said Lyuri.

"We can deal with Allen later, for now, we just have to get our heads out of what happened. I just hope the others are doing all right." said Duke

Gateon Port

Sakura and Leon are still there and they're just casually chatting with each other

"So your brother is shy around girls?" asked Sakura

"Yeah, that's why he spoke in such a low voice, usually he can only speak normally in more serious situations or when feeling confident." explained Leon

"That's rather cute." said Sakura, giggling

"He just embarrasses himself by doing that." said Leon, sighing.

Eskay: Diane still has that Snag Machine. We can resnag Jack once this is over. What did you mean by "she got what she wanted", though?

Opperations HQ

Sam sighs as he ties up the last in a group of four peons "Okay, things are going well. Trying not to find Mammor-can is...difficult. But I think I'm doing okay." he mutters, moving on to look for more peons to fight.

Operations HQ

Verax: "A-And you d-don't believe me?!"

D-Do I really not regret anything?

No! I-I thought...

All those lives... all those screams... do I really not care?

".... Then fine... go ahead. Do... what you desire."
