ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Holon City

Amanita: I...haven't seen any names I know, actually.

Ah, okay. I guess you could just ask Umbra or Lina if they remember someone who looks like you.

Holon City

Amanita: Maybe, yeah...

It's worth a shot.

Ignis, in the dead of night.

A figure stares from the palace walls onto the Ignis courtyard and palace. She is constantly moving, taking a good look at the location of the palace guards as wells a find an opening inside. Miu is looking around to see if there are any of Izumi's personal gaurd are going to sneak up on them.

Tsubasa: There's gotta be an opening somewhere...

Miu gently pecks Tsubasa and points to a vacant opening on the 3rd floor.

Tsubasa: Thanks boy! You're the best!

Miu flies Tsubasa over to the opening. She unpacks a few nessesities and gestures to Miu.

Tsubasa: Stay here boy. I'll be back soon

Miu titters in response and lies low as Tsubasa ducks into the castle. She slips, slides and weaves her way through till she comes to Izumi's personal chambers.

She stares at the sleeping figure in the room for a while, before snapping out of it and gently ghosting over the floorboards, not even so much as a creak, until she is looming over the sleeping warlord. She removes her gloves and silently and softly gets to work removing the necklace.

Tsubasa: C'mon... C'mon...

Tsubasa's hands glide quickly to the back of Izumi's neck. The intensity of the moment causing sweat to bead on Tsubasa's forehead. It feels like she's been at this for ages until...

• Click*

She undoes the clasp and pulls the necklace gently away from Izumi's neck. Tsubasa grins madly as she inspects the necklace. Though, the amount of oxidisation and grime on the necklace leave an imprint on Tsubasa's hand.

Tsubasa: Urgh... Has this tacky old thing ever been washed? No matter, Hikari 1 - Mad Lady 0

Tsubasa sneaks out of the room, she turns back to give one smug gring to Izumi before.

• creak*

Tsubasa winces.

Tsubasa: Oh, Crap!...

Izumi's eyes snap wide open.

Ryoshima Coast

-Herbert pulls up his left sleeve and examines his bleeding arm with mild irritation as he follows Ammy.-

Herbert: I know it's somewhat unreasonable to complain about getting a few scars when we're fighting malformed abominations on a near-daily basis, but seriously, why did he have to hit me in the exact same spot as last time? It bloody well hurts. Ruined the bandage, as well... anyone got something I could use as a dressing?

Holon Museum

Nico: Anything I can do to help?

Holon City

Amanita: Hey Umbra, can I ask kind of a weird question?

Ryoshima Coast

-Herbert takes advantage of the water to wash his wound clean and, lacking an appropriate bandage, uses some of the cloth Sabaku's food was wrapped in to dress his arm.-

Herbert: Well, if anything, this journey's certainly been useful as an impromptu first-aid course.

Holon Museum

Maggie: "Besides what your doing right now, I don't know..."

Ryoshima Coast

- Ammy moves the water up to a withered sapling, which restores it to life as an unbloomed Guardian Sapling-

-Ammy blooms it, causing a wave of flowers to purify the land-

Holon Museum
