ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

- James grabs his bleeding shoulder-

James : WHAT HAS GOTTEN INT- Oh. Oh,dear. It the music, isn't it? Thats why your acting like this?

Goldie : <HE HAS TO DIE! FOR THE SAKE OF ALL, HE MUST DIE!>

James : Uh-huh. Yea, no. He is not going to die today, no ma'am. Right lets get you to a Pokemon center.

Goldie : <'''YOU WILL NOT TAKE ME TO THAT HOUSE OF EVIL! AND HE WILL DIE!>

-She jumps away from him and starts charging towards Jacob, teeth bared.-

Virbank

Argentum: -To Seth- <Before you get any ideas, I'm here on my own. I think I'll talk to you instead. Yes, Jacob is here. But no, he has no intention of showing himself. He intends to run and hide from you all. If you'll allow me, I'd like to show you something. A series of thoughts.>

Virbank, Elsewhere

Jacob: "Jacob Iridis is my name. Pleasure to meet you."

-Coughs into his elbow, but if someone is paying close attention, they notice that the blood is already dry, and the faintest corners of his mouth are stressing to stay straight-

Regina: <Ninetails, we're busy. Please.> -Hits Goldie with a Psychic blast-

-Sam wanders over to James and Goldie, holding his head and completely oblivious to the situation at hand.-

Sam: Excuse me, is there a pokemart around here? I'm dying for some advil...

???, Unova

-My mons and I land unceremoniously in a city-

Pica: <Where are we?>

Artemia: <I have absolutely no idea.>

Darner: -Buzzing around- <What's that?>

-Goes on ahead-

Darner, wait up!

-We go after her-

Sinnoh

Xatu: -Teleports DS and Maggie to Lake Acuity-

Virbank City

Herbert: Jacob Iridis, huh? Sounds almost as archaic as my real name. Anyway, you wouldn't happen to know if there are any good hotels nearby, would you?

Maul: -snaps his head away from Glockchen, and starts building up a Psybeam ready to fire at Goldie-

-Goldie is knocked right into James arms.-

James : Got you! I'm really sorry, she isn't usually like this. She's listened to some music, and now shes kinda crazed. And uh buddy, I'll give some Advil if you help me get her to a Pokemon center.

Lake Acuity

- Looks around -

Hey, this is Lake Acuity.

Kohai: (looks around) <...?>

The lakes of Sinnoh are so pretty... but, why are we here?

???, Unova

Darner: -Stops on top of a scenic overlook- <Wow...>

Artemia: -Jumps on top of the railing- <It's pretty.>

Pica: <I wonder what the rocks over there would taste like...>

-Catches up-

Wait a sec, I think I know these mountains. We're in..Aspertia City.

-The iPhokex starts playing this-

Sinnoh

Xatu: -Says nothing and walks inside-

Virbank

"<Jacob?>" asked Duke, being unaware of everything that happened before.

Sakura just kept herself silent, but from the look on her face it was clear that she wasn't very happy with the news and didn't seem very keen on seeing Jacob again, Lyuri, however...

"He better hide if he knows what's good for him." said Lyuri, still upset over that incident.

"<How are you going to show thoughts?>" asked Conan

Seth and Grant looked at each other and both shrugged.

"<I guess, spit it out.>" said Seth.

- Follows Xatu -

Lake Acuity

Maggie: "I'm not really sure. You know this place better than I do."

-notices Xatu heading inside-

"I think we should follow him..."

-Maggie follows him, Kernel still mumbling-

Virbank

Crow: "What is your real name, out of curiosity?"

-Sam nods slowly-

Sam: Kay, hang on. Edward.

-Calls out Edward who looks at the Ninetales nervously-

Edward: <D-do I have to fight her?>

Sam: -Notices Edwards nervousness- It's okay buddy, just want you to use Thunder Wave on it okay? And you might want to back up pal.

-Edward gulps and unleashes a wave of static electricity at Goldie-

Aspertia City

-We are currently waiting around while the stuff I obtained in Unova is getting updated in the Pokemon Center-

Pica: <Where is Aspertia exactly?>

It's the southwestern most city in Unova, and kind of a resort town. People come over here to see all of Unova from the mountains.

Acuity Cavern

Uxie: -Appears out of seemingly nowhere- <I knew you'd be coming here, and I have something to show you.>

Acuity Cavern

Oh! Hi Uxie! What have you been up to? Mesprit and Azelf doing okay?

Virbank City

Herbert: -to Crow- It's Lucius. Lucius Cain. But call me Herbert, please. There's a reason, I assure you.

Maul: -dispels the Psybeam, and goes back to staring at Glockchen-

-James drops Goldie like a sack of potatoes and scrambles out of the way. The paralyzing wave of thunder hits Goldie-

Goldie :<ARGH!>

-Goldie is paralyzed-

James : thanks man. here, have some Advil. Now then, lets get you to a Pokemon center

-he picks up Goldie, who jerks, twists, and bites him in the shoulder again-

Goldie : <DID YOU REALLY THINK SUCH A THING COULD STOP ME? MY DEVOTION TO MY HOLY QUEST GIVES ME THE ABILITY TO IGNORE MY BODIES PITIFUL WISHES!>

Virbank

Crow: "I don't see what's wrong with Lucius, but alright."

Lake Acuity

Maggie: "Huh, Uxie."

"First time I've seen a Legendary..."

Virbank City

Herbert: There's nothing wrong with the name itself, it's just that... -sighs- Like I said earlier, long story. Just call me Herbert.

Maul: -continues staring intently at Glockchen-

-Sam takes some advil and thinks of something to do next. Edward sees Goldie bite James and squeaks in fear.-

Edward: <N-no! I'm not letting you hurt him again!> -Uses Wrap, wrapping himself around Goldies Muzzle-

Sam: Woohoo! Way to go Ed! Come on -grabs an end of Goldie- before she shakes him off.

Virbank

Argentum: <By altering your perceptions, I can show you what he thought. He never said these aloud, but... you'll see.>

-And the world fades to black, then out of the black a room, sort of like a castle emmerges, Jacob is standing by an open window, looking out it, trying to see something beyond a ring of dense fog-

True!Jacob: "What would I tell her, if I got the chance? That I was sorry? That wouldn't be enough. I know what I did was wrong, that despite my reasons, the things I said or did would never be excusable. I know I should have felt sorry, but I didn't, and I knew that was wrong too."

-He turns around and walks straight through Sakura like she's not there, to Lyuri seemingly-

True!Jacob: "But her sister would never let me get close to her to say these things. What would I say to her? You think it'd be better if I just dropped dead, right? That if I was never seen again the world would be a better place? Then we're in agreement. I've done nothing good for anyone." -Another man dressed in a jester outfit dances his way to True!Jacob-

Insane!Jacob: "Oh come on! You're so borring! We did nothing wrong! You know what they say, you can't spell slaughter-" -It giggles- "-Without laughter!" -Breaks down into derranged laughter-

True!Jacob: -Ignoring the Jester- "That's why I'm not curing myself. If I wait long enough, I'm going to vanish. I'll be doing you the service you'd like so much. A shame you'll never see it." -A Black lump of solid darkness forms the shape of a man in the corner of the room-

Insufferable-Genius!Jacob: "What? You think she deserves any sort of pity? She is below us. We need not feel sorrow for the weak."

True!Jacob: -Returns to gazing out the window- "I guess.... I'd say I would like to put this all behind me. If you'd let me. You're happy. I have no right to infringe on that hapiness. And if a world without me would make that easier, then I'll gladly disapear. We exist in a world could do with a few less problems."

-The world fades back in-

Argentum: <Any questions? I'm not done, but I might as well answer anything now.>

Virbank, Elsewhere

Jacob: "I like my name. And sorry. I haven't explored this place enough to answer that. If I find a good hotel, I'll tell you."

Aspertia City

-Coming out of the Center-

Perhaps I should go and try calling one of the others, I can feel that they're here in Unova.

???: -Watching from a tree- <Hmm?>

Acuity Cavern

Uxie: <They've been doing quite fine lately DS, but anyway.>

-Focuses and creates a portal in the center of the cavern-

<DS, Maggie, this portal will lead you to your ultimate destination, in Unova.>

James :(talking through gritted teeth) You, uh, Ed ,right? I think you need to knock her out. She's kind of strong and is filled with murderous intent, so you need to zap her until she's unconscious. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine, okay? Just do it before she breaks lose.

Virbank

Crow: "And I kind of have a long story involving the name Herbert..."

"Would you be fine with me calling you Bert or something instead?"

Lake Acuity Cavern

Maggie: "Oh, great."

-She and Kernel head through the portal-

Acuity Cavern

Oh, really? Where in Unova does it lead, or do we just have to step through it to find out...?

- Shrugs, and decides to step through the portal -

Virbank City

Herbert: -turning back to Jacob- I'm sure you do, I'm just saying that it's a bit... nevermind. And is everyone in this town new here? I don't have a "Hotel Finder" app on my Poketch, you know.

-to Crow- Yeah, Bert's fine.
