Freezington, today

-To Channah-

I'm hoping it's not another battle, but of course.

Cuddles: <Ooh~! Shiny orange thingy~!> (beat) <Step inside it? Well, Evelyn can do that, can't she?>

Braker: "Given her knowledge of magic, she probably would be the best candidate."

-Evelyn steps into the center of the glowing circle, letting the mystical light shine on her. She takes a deep breath, and then claps her hands together. She breathes out, channeling her psychic energy through the magic circle and its energy through her body. Whatever happens next is up to the arcane forces at work.-

-As soon as Evilyn stands in the center, something happens to her arms-

-They fold up, then unfold into papery stretchy accordion arms-

???: <That... That sounded good! Are your arms all big and foldy now? I've heard about this! I think those are called 1000-Fold Arms. Try feeling around a bit... Maybe you can help me escape from this strange dimension.>

-Evilyn may notice a strange crease or fold in the otherwise very much not paper wall-

RV Hammerspace

-There is no further noise from the storage bay-

-Evelyn jumps slightly upon noticing the sudden changes in her arms.-

Me: Pururun Purun Famifami WHA?!

Evelyn: Whoa... This is incredible!

-Evelyn then notices the crease in the wall.-

Evelyn: Huh? Something tells me that's not supposed to be there...

-Evelyn feels around on the wall for the crease, and when she finds it, she grabs onto it.-

Evelyn: Okay, I got it. And now, for my next trick... I think I'm supposed to do this.

-Evelyn then pulls on the crease from left to right.-

Stepping back as Eve's arms shift, Kendall and Kamui have to bite their tongues to keep them from tackling her off the platform, considering that she still seemed to be Eve and not whatever that Julius facsimile was.

"Is this..." Kamui asked, pointing at them, refusing to finish the thought. "Oh my..."

I suppose it helps that until the fated battle, I'm not sure if I'd be able to die.

Akiko: -Flying above Tyl and Ginny- <You two wanna talk?>

Interpol Offices - Unova

"It's not right!" Kevin protested, tossing the folder aside.

Marshall sighed, "Problem?"

Kevin opened the folder and showed her, it was the current assignment, "We're being assigned to arrest Shaun Sapphire of the J-Team."

Marshall picked up the document and looked it over, "That's his name? Really?"

Kevin frowned at her, Marshall sighed, "Okay okay. What's the problem sir? Quite frankly each J-Teamer is a walking army on their own, sending in SRD to bring one in is actually a logical move. Better than kitting up plainclothes with enough firepower to do so. You yourself have said that we exist so we don't end up militarizing the regulars. You have outright protested attempts to kit up the detectives with heavier gear."

"It's not that," Kevin pointed out, "It's why."

"He was seen at the sight of an attack sir, 6 people were injured, that does require our attention."

"It does, but arresting him... it's not right. He was there, there is no evidence he did anything. It's going to set a dangerous precedent, we're here to keep the peace and ensure stability, arresting people for being at specific locations is the opposite of that. I swear with the weirdness those J-Teamers summon, it could have been a look alike smearing him out of some twisted envy."

Marshall nodded, "That is understandable sir, but at the same time, the orders are not "arrest", they are "bring in". Those are different, I agree with you that he probably isn't responsible for the attack, Manya even has a report written up that based on the psychological profile it doesn't make a lot of sense. We still need to bring him in regardless."

Kevin eyed her, "Cause we were ordered to?"

"Because he was there, and if he's not responsible, he's a witness. He was there at the scene, he saw things others may have missed, we need him to complete an image. But he will justifiably be paranoid, the news jumped the gun before we could get onto this, so he's being already prosecuted by the court of public opinion as a criminal," Marshall responded, "We have expert negotiation skills with Manya, we have dedication and strength, and you sir are a bit of a public face after the Nexus incident. You've got a reputation as an honorable man, that Geosoc article really made you look golden."

Kevin frowned, "It's not about the public opinion... it's about doing the right thing."

Marshall nodded, "Right. Then accept this case, Team Gold lead by you, you'd probably do far better negotiating and getting him to stand down than the others, less damage and injuries. Do the right thing sir, don't just sit by in protest, lead by example and show everyone else why your way is the right way."

Kevin's frown became a grimace... "Manya."

Manya stood up, "Yes Captain?"

"Profile, the other teams, how likely is it that fighting will break out trying to capture the J-Teamer?"

"Well do you want the long or the short of it sir?" Manya asked, "Because if I was to consider the profile of Team Silver's Lead Captain Gregory well we'd-"

The look on Marshall's face spoke volumes.

Manya nodded, "Very likely sir. They've picked up a lot yes but they're... twitchy. They're more likely to pop a flashbang and then strike him with several concussive rounds rather than let him talk and come in peacefully... and J-Teamers have... reputations for being difficult so we're not certain if they'd work."

Kevin sighed and stood up, "Fine... I'll do it myself."

Marshall smiled, "Good. We're not moving out yet, Aeson is still arguing with command, and They've pulled in legal so we've got some time. So far we're on reserve, So don't worry."

Kevin sighed, "That only makes me worry more."

-It is then that a chunk of the wall peels away to reveal an origami Togekiss in yellow wedged inside. She quickly pops out-

???: <Wow! I'm free from that weird in-between dimension!>

-turns around-

<...Oh, was I just stuck in that wall?>

-turns to the group-

<You must be the J-Team! My name's Olivia! You'd probably like to know a lot more about me and why I was trapped like that, huh?>

-Looks around, shuddering-

<But... I don't think we really have time for that now. Maybe we should just get out of here.>

-On that note, the door is locked, but a box in the corner looks kind of flimsy-

"Yeah, probably. Should find some way to get out of here," Kamui considered, sitting down on the box to rest after everything that happened in the past short while.

It would probably break with her weight on it.

-Stops-

Wait a second.

-The forest around us just looks... odd and twisted-

Muddy: -Eyes narrowing- <Something's off.>

Galarian Articuno: -Floating above us- <Where have you all been, I could've completed a full molt waiting for you to show up while you were busy horse wrangling!>

Cam: -Looking up- <This is all your doing, I'd imagine?>

Galarian Articuno: -Perching on a large branch- <Correct, Inteleon. This will be your test of insight, find your way through this knotted forest, find me, and I'll consider it worth my time to do this little council of yours.>

-Smirking-

<If you don't, well, I could always use more statues.>

-Creates two copies of themselves before disappearing-

-To Channah-

Okay, I'll trust your judgement.

-Takes the path on on the right, the left turning into some of the gnarliest thorn bushes I've ever seen, and we end up on a trail terminating in three paths with an Articuno floating above them, the sky replaced with yet more snowy trails-

I feel like we're in some damned Mystery Dungeon, though my Aura Sense seems to be working slightly better now.

Muddy: -As they start circling around us- <It's likely, I remember that one Doc said he and the others found in Ever Grande in a pocket dimension.>

Ginny: -Looking from side to side, the Galarian Ponyta seeming nervous yet determined-

Fallen Train Car

-the Orbeetle is, in fact, a Blipbug-

-and before utterly destroying the intended, tiny target, Ein's Crunch is intercepted by that bug's much larger ally-

Antimony: -for some reason, winces and clutches her hands as her Darmanitan's fingers close around Ein's teeth-

-but time has been bought-

-in those scant seconds, Hiro's placed his hands together-

Hiro: -somehow resonant, over the alarms- The School is on record as wanting knowledge from my family. No matter how many of us you've managed to capture and torture, you haven't been able to extract what you're really after. And here I come, with all the lore at my disposal.

Freshman!Molybdenum: I know you'll give your secrets to me. It's inevitable.

Hiro: -head cocked, somehow softly- ...I could always choose to die. There's any number of options available to me, altered by your influence.

Freshman!Molybdenum: -eyes widen-

Hiro: -sigh- But...frankly, you're right. I won't.

-sparks lick up his torso, catching in the weave of his cape-

Hiro: -meeting her gaze, a challenge- So take it. Your victory. The future you prophesied.

-becoming incandescent-    See further than you ever have before.   

-and, viewing thus, he sees her pupils constrict against her will-

   Hiro: -sincerely- ...for what it's worth, I am sorry.   


-in memory, a much younger Hero gazes at a tree in black and white-

[[white:Young!Hiro: -suffused with the multiverse's light- ...I wonder how far I could see if I tried.]]

-his gaze ignites, a shout going unheard—-


-this doesn't burn, no-

-no tricks, nor traps, nor deception of any kind-

Molybdenum: -breathes in, and out-

-Molybdenum is merely struck with a sudden and irrevocable understanding of the branching paths available to her-

-in. and out-

-learning thus, she watches boughs on the tree of potentiality wither and die-

Molybdenum: -...whimper-


-proximity exposes Ein and Owen to the pure light of Truth-

-what this uncovers in them remains to be seen-

-Owen's inner circuitry continues being mined desperately for useful information—[[white:the light clarifies, but the longer it shines the less it seems that information is being received-

Molybdenum!Blipbug: ~what are you~

-behind them, the Janitor sighs, drawing a pistol to train on Hiro-

Stormchaser, Percy's Place

Logan: -waving, looking directly cameraward- Heya! It's me, of my own volition and sound mind. Just checking in on you after recent occurrences?

Addie: -eyeroll, fond- <Granted, that's what we'd say if we were brainwashed to the far side of Uxie's cavern. Leave us out here if it'd be comfy, Percy.>

-...whether or not Percy can understand Addie, she speaks-

-He angrily kicks a can, the metal clattering down the alley.-

Thanatos: "It is...hard, to find people in this city."

Shaun: "Especially when you're all suddenly Unova's most wanted."

Thanatos: "I doubt it was intentional."

Beowulf: <He feels like the type to do this, though. Sow doubt, throw obstacles in our path.>

-Shaun stops, halfway through putting his hair into a ponytail.-

Shaun: "It's what I would do..."

Myrmex: <It would be a sound tactical play, though not without drawbacks.>

Thanatos: "Maybe...maybe..."

-He looks over at Shaun.-

Shaun: "No. I'm not doing that."

Myrmex: <Explain.>

Thanatos: "If your Jessica is alive, then-"

Shaun: "No, no one else comes into this, especially not her."

Beowulf: <With more numbers->

Shaun: "No."

-He suddenly lights up with Obscura, which flickers out just as quickly.-

Shaun: "I..."

-He shakes his head.-

Shaun: "Standing here talking accomplishes nothing. We're just going to run in circles."

Beowulf: <We need a plan.>

-Shaun stops, tilting his head.-

Shaun: "Can you forcefully control someone?"

-He replies back to himself in another voice.-

Shaun(?): "What did you have in mind?"

Shaun: "Orpheus wants us dead? Needs to find us first. We may not have a Rotom or Porygon, but we do have you."

-Shaun grins cockily as he sees Beowulf spring up from his perch.-

Beowulf: <You don't->

Shaun: "I'm sure somebody's covering today's top news story."


Castelia City, Pokè Center - August 17th, 2021

-A very angry redhead slams the door open, stomping out. Following her are an Arcanine and a Delphox.-

Jessica: "I swear on Arceus's left flank, if he's not dead yet I'm going to kill him!"

-Cereza quietly coaxes Fluffles back into her ball, silent as she scans the streets.-

Cereza: <You'll get the first hit on him. Gods, why are all the men in our family like this? I blame myself, really, since I'm the one who hooked up with that idiot. And of course Shaun's so much like my dear husband. Though, darling, are you sure it was wise to come so...dressed down? A lady always accessorizes properly before she goes out on the town."

Jessica: "Don't need my secrets leaking out like that. Sometimes more...subtle touches say a lot more."

-She takes her duster half-off, revealing an elaborate gauntlet encasing her right arm.-

Jessica: "Borrowed something from my daughter's closet. Now come on, we have to go beat some sense into my boyfriend."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"
