Late August/September Test Drive! THE SECOND




After the Dynamax Raid Battle, the Islands are Busier than Ever. There's more things to do, School is beginning, and people are starting to work into fall. The Music Festival is upon them in a few days, and there is a Harvest Festival in the early part of September, there is much to do and prepare for. But there is many things to do, with the Pokemon School opening up. And there is much for you Fallers to prepare for, as a new wave of Fallers arrive on the islands!


A. Arrival

Another wave of Ultra Holes have opened up over the Island, alarms have appeared and the Ultra Guardians as well as Bewear has come into play. This time, the Fallers have been asked to intercept the literally Falling people who are coming out of the holes and brief them and bring them to the Pokemon Center, ie Immigration to get checked in. Wicke is there to answer questions but a few volunteers may be there as well. The experienced Fallers can get you up to speed.


B. The Alola Community Visitors Plaza

A venue usually for tourists, new Fallers are given a chance to see the main tourist area for Alola, in order to orient and familiarize themselves with the nature of Alola and Pokemon in general. A far cry from the disorganized mob that was originally there, this time, there are people set up in the stands, ready to receive tourists and Fallers alike. Pamphlets, interviews with locals and tour guides, Ride Pokemon to take you around the island, and various other places are available. Please look around, the choice is yours.


C. The Hau’oli City Markets

This is where the marketplace stands, full of fresh fruit and food. Those who are hungry can be treated to a delicious taste of Alola. Not once, not twice, but more times than they can imagine. Your coin is good here, even if it’s alien in nature. Even if you don’t have coin, you’ll be fine. Ohana. No one is left behind or forgotten. We’re not about to let people go hungry in this world. Nature’s bounty is for everyone, humans and Pokemon alike. There’s no need to steal, just ask the marketplace for some food if you are very hungry. Even if you’re shy, Miss Anela will offer you a snack.


D. Job Board

Odd Jobs have been posted here right now, thanks to the efforts of the people who have decided to help the Fallers out, and it’s also a help wanted board for those who want to earn some coin in the middle of the week before the beginning of the school year. Tasks such as bucking crates of Juice off a truck, to doing some simple paperwork in an office for a few days, and even tending Pokemon in a farm on Akala Island. The choice is yours. Get out and explore.


E. Exploring Melemele

If you wish to explore Melemele, it is a big island, and there is plenty to see. There are Forests, Honey Fields, Hot Springs, Beaches, and many other places. Melemele boasts one of the biggest cities Hau’oli City, and is the capital of Alola. Here, up at the top of a large plateau is the challenge area where Hala offers the Grand Trial. The caves are full of Pokemon, and your Pokemon are eager to prove themselves in a Trial.


F. Pokemon School

The Pokemon School has begun to open its doors, and the school is opened up officially. Early enrollment has begun, and you can prepare to start studying. Also, Professor Burnet may be looking for people to start assisting in the research for Pokemon. This time, Enrollment has begun and you may enter your name, age, and grade and tour the school. Students such as Mallow, Lana, Kiawe and others are here to give you a tour of the school, and the Adult Learning Classes are upon us as well. Researchers from all over the world are coming to set up base in the Pokemon School as well, to study the Ultra Hole Phenomenons.


G. Harvest Festival Preparations

The fields of Melemele, Akala Island, Ula'Ula and Poni are bursting with produce and it's in need of help this year. Succulent fruits, delicious vegetables, spicy radishes, all of it is in need of harvest. The Kahunas ask for your aid in picking the fruits, and helping out with your Pokemon and help. There is several things to do this year, and much to do it in, with the blessings of the festival to be held on Poni Island this year.


H. The Music Festival

Musicians from all over the world are coming to Ula'ula in order to play music, and you're invited! You can play music, watch the people enjoy the sights, it's a wonderful festival for all. This week-long festival lasts for a good solid while, and there's various musicians from all over the world coming to this place. Please, soak in the musical styling of all of the international musical bands of the world.

Betty Burke | Power Rangers Beast Morphers

[sassyfourfeet]

D. Job Board

Contrary to belief, Betty Burke was not prone to panic.

She might be a little excitable and prone to mishaps, but that was due to situations out of her control. Being a tiny woman did not mean she was incapable of things. In fact, she was smart, capable and most importantly, strong.

It was here that she was bucking a massive piece of lab equipment around the Melemele Pokemon Center, on behest of the Job Board as Nurse Joy looked on in awe at her strength from the tiny woman as she levered it into place with proper lifting procedures. "There you go, let me just hook it up and...!"

With a whine, it locked into place. "Perfect. One medical scanner ready to go."

Counting her Pokedollars as Joy paid her, Betty put the money into her wallet as she grinned. "Not bad self, that's a pretty decent haul. Enough to get by. I'll have to drop some off at Sophocles' parents for rent this month."

Betty was in the mood to treat the kids to ice cream, since she didn't feel like just not paying for her rent.


F. Pokemon School

Advanced Mathematics. Advanced Sciences. Quantum Wormhole Tunneling. Dimensional Fabrics and You. Betty was an uncommonly good student, and the adult learning classes was a breeze.

As she leaned back in her chair, she cracked her knuckles. "This is pretty good stuff here," She said with a nod. "Grid Battleforce would learn a lot from the science here. A lot of it is comparable to the tech back home. I wonder if I could make some actual Ranger suits here. Though I'm just a tech and I don't have Morph X here..."

Thinking about home though made her think about Ben as she sighed. "Hope Ben's okay... he'd be lost without me. Naw, what am I talking about? Ben's capable. He wouldn't be missing me. He'd be on his own two feet like the good little brother he is! Yeah!"


H. The Music Festival

Betty had a horn. She had a horn and she was ready to jam it out! So she brought it to her lips and started to play. It was a fun and jaunty theme that got her a lot of P tossed into the hat in front of her as she bowed.

"Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week!"


I. Wildcard

Come at her!

skool,

[shadowslipping]

Yuume is signing into more of her own 'standard fare'. History. Archaeology. Literature. All the things that speak of culture and of the peoples behind it. They're registering all in the same room though, and she can't help but overhear the other. "Ah... ...You have a sibling?"

Daichi Izayoi | OC, Vampire: The Masquerade-verse

[lullabile]

[ARRIVAL - HELLO FROM 2009]

So what do you call a vampire plummeting toward the ocean at mach speed under the light of the moon?

Well, his name, one would hope. This one's name is Daichi and he is terrified.

He doesn't scream, to his own surprise, as he suddenly shifts from NewYorkApartment to AlolaSky in the blink of an eye for zero discernible reason. He doesn't scream when, in lieu of sticking a nasty landing in some salty water, he's effortlessly nabbed from the air by a very large bear also moving at mach speed. He doesn't scream when he's delivered rather unceremoniously to shore where people seem to be expecting him. Or, well, not him specifically but someone like him.

Nah, it comes later, when the fuss has died down a little and he's been briefed about his situation (which is largely him Thinking he understands things but not Quite and maybe he's been playing a little too much Pokémon Platinum, that has to be it). It's when he's sitting outside of the Hau'oli Pokécentre staring up at the moon, marvelling at the clearness of this foreign sky, and even then it's not really a proper scream. It's a sudden choke, a sniffle, a shiver of anticipation gone unfulfilled as he realises the quiet is not because it's so peaceful but because he's suddenly alone.

Even if he's perpetually with some company, there's still a crushing loneliness with the absence of his other companions.


[THE MUSIC FESTIVAL - NIGHTTIME ROMP]

There's predictably been some urging by some of the locals for Daichi to get out. No thanks, he'd rather sleep while the Imminent Glowing Death Orb remains in the sky.

But that's fine, because some of the festivities naturally stretch into the evening. Music festivals in his world tend to go on into the night, anyway, so he's not super surprised that there's plenty of nighttime activity when he wakes up just after sunset. It's pretty refreshing; he was never one to get out much largely because he just... didn't know what to do.

He doesn't do much at first, simply strolling around the festival grounds to familiarise himself with the location and soak in the sounds. It's admittedly a little overwhelming with his enhanced vampire senses, but just as a regular human eventually adjusts to a concert atmosphere, so too does he fall into the swing of things eventually.

Perhaps he falls a little too into it, as he bumps into a passerby along the street - it's you! Find yourself faced with a 6'5" twig of a man folding his hands tensely as he bows lightly, sheepishly, in apology. "Ah, I'm sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going... Are you alright?"



[WILDCARD: send me something completely different if you want! go nuts! it's free real estate babey!! he won't willingly go out in the daytime since i'm still playing him like a vampire, but as long as he stays inside and away from the windows you're honestly good to go!

"dan did you post this delete it and repost it after changing One Line" yes because my brain doesn't work]

arrival i am S orry

[soft_focus]

Someone feels bad.

Someone feels...REAL BAD.

Reira can't help but notice that kind of level of bad, especially with how sharp and painful and sad the feelings are.

So, there's a small child creeping over slowly, moving two steps, sitting down, waiting, moving two steps again, sitting down again, glancing over and waiting...

....

That's not subtle!!!

Zuzu Boyle | Yu-Gi-Oh Arc V Dub

[melodiouspun]

D. Job Board

"Three Honey Donuts and a Champion Special. There you go, enjoy your Donuts!" Exclaimed Zuzu, bowing politely as she went to fetch the next order. "Order up!"

Zuzu wiped her forehead in the middle of the shift, as the lines at the Team Rocket's Honey Donut Truck thinned out and ended for the dinner rush. "Whew! That was a rush!"

"You did good," said James, as he handed her a donut and juice. "Take a break, I've got this."

"Really?" asked Zuzu. "There's still customers."

"Ah, don't worry about it. I've got my help." replied James, gesturing to his Pokemon partner who was frying up the donuts with skillful flips of the donuts.

Zuzu cheerfully smiled, bowed and doffed her hat to take a seat a ways away, so she could get off her feet. "Whew! Who knew working at a donut shop was so taxing?"


H. The Music Festival

Even here, at the music Festival, Zuzu was working the donut shop lines but she was on break for now. having removed her apron, she was wandering the area, listening to the music around the festival area and taking a bite of the sweet Mago berry that was provided. "This is real good, I wonder if we should make more filling with this," she murmured, taking another bite of her Mago.


I. Wildcard

Come at her!

job board

[blue_ice]

Kaiba has seen this small shop before, but he's always felt an aversion to it. He can't really explain why. Maybe it has something to do with its owner?

But he sees a young girl he doesn't recognize running things today, and takes a chance again. When she goes on break, he's there, feeding berries to his Goomy while he nibbles at the donut.

He stops when he sees her and nods. "Hm. You can't have been here long, and you're already hard at work. Well done."

Kaiba...has not yet found work that suits his interest, but he's hoping to work his way into Aether soon. In the meantime, he'll continue wandering and doing odd jobs here and there.

D

[hearts_beat]

“Well, sweets are good for any occasion. Even here.” Ellen said, looking over at Zuzu.

H

[revolutionhawk]

Overhead a dark-feathered shape flips and twirls through the air when a band comes on with a particularly spicy tune full of things like trumpets and guitars. Obviously, it's some kind of Pokemon, shaped more like a half-bird half-man creature than an actual bird.

The question of who they belong to might be the individual who's keeping his sharpest eagle eye on them above something as frivolous as sampling the foods or relaxing to the sounds of the music. And he's still wearing a certain coat regardless of Alola's typical weather.

At least someone in this pair is enjoying the festival.

Tony Stark | MCU (End of Homecoming) | OTA

[inadvertentdadfigure]

C. Hao'oli City Markets

"I get it. So one Poke is about a yen. That's easy to remember. Which means that 100 Poke is about a dollar. Easy enough."

Tony flipped the coin and handed it over to the shopkeeper and took his order of Oran Berries. "Pleasure to do business with you. C'mon Squirt."

Handing one of the Oran's to Squirt, he headed off towards the car that he had managed to get working. He wanted to save the manual labor for anything else, but he was doing the trading for the various businesses, making sure that the different markets were up to snuff. "Pretty decent economy here," he said, taking a bite of Kee.

"Gol," replied Squirt, the Golett chewing on its food.

"How you even eat is beyond me," replied Tony.

"Boss you have a call," replied Friday from his glasses.

"Put them through," replied Tony, as his Rotom appeared. "Hey, Redbot, where are you? Did you get the stuff?"

"I did-roto," replied Redbot, the Rotom holding up the things on his end of the feed. "It took me a little work aniki."

"Quit it with the aniki thing, I'm not a yakuza boss," replied Tony with a eyeroll.

"No can do aniki," replied Rotom with a cheerful chirp.

"Just.. get back here with the minerals. I have a hankering to invent."

Now would be a good time for you to talk to him.


H. The Music Vestival

"Huh. Poke-Black Sabbath. It's more metal than I expected," said Tony over the din. "I really like it."

"I mean, it's being made by literal Steelix, aniki," replied Rotom. "You okay little bro?"

"Gol," replied Golurk, holding its hands over its "ears".

"Not a fan huh? We'll get you somewhere quieter. Maybe some country..."

More time to talk to Tony!



I. Wildcard!

Talk to him!

Re: Tony Stark | MCU (End of Homecoming) | OTA

[utauhoshina]

I. Utau was stalking through the marketplace, full on angry, purple eyes flashing as she muttered under her breath on heels that were too high for her. Unseen and unheard by him - although his pokemon would see and hear them - were a small angel and small devil about a handspan high each, nattering at her. She was doing her best to ignore them. She stopped before running into him, but just. She narrowed her eyes like it was his fault he was in her way, and turned neatly to try a different direction. However she had her head up and chin out, and was distracted by the devil nattering at her and the angel whining, and somehow managed to not see his pokemon until she walked right into the thing. She stumbled backwards, arms windmilling as she tried not to fall.

c.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Peter cannot even describe how happy and energetic he's been the passed week. He's not usually a gloomy kid but now he's practically radiating sunshine and rainbows as he dashes up to Tony. He's just gotten out of school and moves over to his mentor, Shelob sitting on his head.

"Hey Mr Stark! What's up? School was okay-I mean I kinda got slammed into a tree because my spideysense has been really weird lately-like half the time it doesn't even work?? I mean, I'm okay and the bruise is all healed up, but man that sucked." He takes a breath for the first time since approaching the man.

"So anyways, what have you been up to all day?"

Re: Tony Stark | MCU (End of Homecoming) | OTA

[blue_ice]

"Invent what?"

Kaiba's so tactful, isn't he? He has his Pokémon seated around him, munching on berries while he works at the blueprint in front of him, for some kind of motorcycle.

He has bigger plans later, but while he's proving himself it's best to start small. He wonders if the new person's going big.

Trip | Pokemon (Black & White anime)

[serperiority]

A. Arrival (in which he thinks this Alola is fake and everyone is CLEARLY Ultra Beasts)

This... didn't really make any sense.

Trip held up his digital camera, looking a bit frazzled and dishevelled, but not that much worse for wear.

“If I fell through some kind of wormhole, does it really make sense for me to just end up just couple of regions over? What’s the date? Who’s the current Champio—wait, you have those, right?"

It’s not that he isn’t grateful he wasn’t thrown very far away (it’s a little anticlimactic, but he’s mostly relieved, really, Ultra Space was terrifying and consuming, like a fire), he’s just highly suspicious that it isn’t as simple as it seems. He’s only really sure it actually happened because his camera did take some pictures, while he fell through, distorted and uselessly hazy as they are, at least they proved he didn’t dream it.

Realizing this might actually be some kind of illusion still, maybe cast by one of those weird creatures he saw moments before, his gaze narrowed and he decided to study the people he met and the surroundings for proof of this being some elaborate illusion! Or maybe he's in the future. Or the past?

He won't just ask that, of course, he has to investigate this, because if they were fakes, they wouldn't announce it...

B. The Hau’oli City Markets (hide-and-go-peek-at-pancakes or something)

Trip was certainly was not penniless! He kept deliberately walking right past—but never stepped foot inside--a certain restaurant; the one Nina, her Raichu, and her husband work at, if you must know—but it wasn’t because he couldn’t afford it!

He was carrying a currency from the same world, after all, and didn’t need the hand-outs; just to prove he wasn't a suspicious prison, he bought the occasional fruit, mostly opting for non-perishable foods that would be good on a journey, but he kept going back to walk past the same restaurant, over and over, stealing glances through the window at the generously piled-up servings of fluffy pancakes, heaped with colourful toppings of syrup and berries, but always pretending to look elsewhere when anyone else walked by or paid him any attention.

He kept pretending not to look in the restaurant and quickly busied himself with snapping pictures of literally anything else (the corner of this wall, a tree, some leaf on the ground...).

He definitely looked suspicious.

B

[acmellash]

Suspicious character sighted!

When word got out that there was a suspicious person around, one of the Ultra Guardians was dispatched quietly to check it out. And who would that be but Ash, who landed nearby, but stopped short. "Oh... it's Trip," he said with a sigh.

Chuckling ruefully at his luck, he went over and called out, "Trip! Alola!"

Dressed in his Ultra Guardian Armor, he might look like a sight, however. With a massive Garchomp with a saddle on it hovering protectively nearby and Pikachu on his shoulder. "Long time no see."

arrival

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"Ahaha, you'd say that, but I came from Unova too, you know..."

Sena chuckles weakly, kind of letting all the questions wash over him. He's spent his entire high school career surrounded by overbearing caricatures of people, so this sort of interrogation is nothing new to him. It's still overwhelming, though, especially coming from a kid who's technically his junior by at least four years despite being only maybe half a meter shorter (sena's...small...).

"It's definitely a different Unova, though, since the Pokemon Leagues I know and the ones that take place here are different, so I'm pretty sure this Alola's different, too..."

[hashtagparkerluck]

Peter's out on his usual patrol in suit after school and is perched atop a rooftop as he watches the comings and goings of the market area and had Karen zoom in a few places, and running checks on a few things.

So of course he catches the guy being a little shady. He doesn't seem to be causing any trouble but best to check in. Spider-Man flips down next to Trip and spins to face him, of course his Spinarak comes in too.

"Hey, couldn't help notice ya making rounds about this place. Trying to stake it out or need a few bucks to cover for a meal? 'Cause I've got like.. uh three dollars-the equivalent of three dollars anyways."

Ambertwo | Pokemon (Origin of Mewtwo, anime & CD drama [cw: implied child death]

[starinheaven]

E. Beach

On the shore, a little girl in borrowed clothes stood, watching the waves in quiet awe, not running and playing, just soaking it in. Her eyes were bright, though her manner was quiet, subdued. She closed her eyes, breathed in the salty sea scent, trying to commit every sense to memory, then burst into a smile.

“I don’t remember the sea this clearly!”

Were they going to the beach? She, papa, and mama? Did she get there first and forget? Did she fall asleep in the car—

Oh. A small, lingering part of her realized this was a dream, maybe something’s gone wrong and that’s why she’s dreaming so intensely, but does it matter? Maybe she’s in Heaven and her papa and mama will join her later! She doesn’t feel scared at all and it’s been so long since she’s felt sun-warmed grains of sand under her feet or cool water or ate fruits that dripped with juice!

Sandals in hand, the girl happily played in the surf! The rest of the fresh fruits the kind people from the marketplace offered her were just a little way away, she was too busy splashing around!!

Because why not

[acmellash]

Ash was out on the beach that day, mostly relaxing. It was between classes and he had decided to go down to it when he noticed Ambertwo there.

Something seemed to twinge at him. Something was making him go towards her, and he smiled, and got up, Pikachu at his side. "Alola!" He called out towards the child. "Having fun?"

Shay Obsidian | Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc V English Dub

[revolutionhawk]

C - The Market

Shay wasn’t just going to accept free handouts when it turns out there’s plenty of work around the island available for gathering up some coin. And on the short-term like comfortably afford the snack in front of them, nothing that foraging and lucky finds of minor treasures can’t solve.

So one might catch Shay handing over a bag of some shiny dust that’s apparently worth a decent bill of pocket money, then in return, he has two malasadas and a smaller bill of the local currency to pocket.

He’s noticed earlier how much the bird seems to like the ‘Tomato’ berries and other similar fruits. So it’s nice to see how happy they are when biting into it. His own was carefully picked to be bland in comparison to everything else offered.


E - Exploring (+Training)

Lots of things are a sight to see when one decides to venture into the forest, but what Shay is doing in there with his companion is no less interesting. Circumstances back in the dimensions mean the young adult is surprisingly more hands-on than most people might be capable of when training with his Pokemon.

But of course, he has enough sense not to test his own bones against his Hawlucha’s Karate Chop. The bird shows that they can quite easily produce a strike hard enough to make one of the full-grown trees shake.

"A lot stronger than you look, aren’t you?" he says, daring to look genuinely amused for once. And that sort of response pleases his partner.

"Luchaaa...!!!" the bird monster simply shouts out, invigorated by the praise actually.

This should turn out well, perhaps. Shay abruptly shifts into a stance. “Good. It means you can do a lot more than that,” he adds. And that’s the only warning he supplies before demonstrating his own maneuvers (slowly at first but then the bird works up to making Shay work hard to match their speed) for the Hawlucha to dodge now and practice on a less fragile target later.

...

And if you happen to stick around or come by much later, then instead one might catch the two gathering fruits from a berry pile until a Crabrawler shows up. The perfect time for Shay’s Hawlucha to test their own mettle.


I - Wildcard!

[Got something else in mind? Come at me!]

E

[adora_plz]

Getting a layout of the forest was something that Adora found herself doing on a regular basis these days. Considering Melemele was full of forest and trees and things that were familiar and yet lacked the purple hue of her forests back home, it drew her attention.

Also there was a lot of amazing food in here.

So when she heard the sound of combat in the forest, she crept forward before peering across the bushes before taking in the sight of Shay and his Pokemon fighting. Wait, no, that's sparring. Training.

Adora's blood sang. Real training! She was getting excited again. Someone on this island other than Hala knew martial arts! Stepping out, she cleared her throat. "Um, hi! Mind if I join in?"

E - training

[serperiority]

Trip was just wandering the woods, hoping to see some new Pokemon, maybe capture one, when he heard voices—the cry of a Pokemon!

But, Hawlucha, isn't that a Pokemon from the Kalos region?!

Curious, he pressed against a tree and tried to stay under good cover before peeking around, camera in hand.

Oh, it has a trainer already... Trip felt a bit disappointed, but that was quickly replaced with awe at seeing the trainer train hands-on with their Pokemon. He pressed the button reflexively, a digital shutter sound going off.

Bedivere | Fate/Grand Order | OTA

[ordinaryknight]

D.

Where would you like me to put this? Over there?

[Bedivere carefully balanced the crate of juice with his only arm as he spoke. It wasn't terribly heavy for him and he could carry it with relative ease from the truck to where they were being stacked. He sets his current crate down on top of one that was acting as a base and goes to get another. He hefts the next one up only to set it back down when he saw that it was tilting and the juice was about to fall out. Hm, what to do in this situation...]


E.

[Bedivere is silently taking in the impossibly blue ocean that surrounded Alola from a spot he had found for himself on one of the many beaches. It was a quieter spot, away from the more crowded areas, and it was just him for the most part with the occasional wild Pokemon passing by. There had been enough time for him to have fully settled in from his initial arrival, but being in Alola was like a dream almost too good to be true. Everything was so peaceful, the people were happy and healthy, and whatever threats there didn't end with bloodshed. Compared to his own experiences and what he remembers...

He's so deep in thought he almost misses the Pokemon--a Ralts--making its way over to him.]

Ralts...

Huh? O-oh, hello.

[The Ralts looks at him expectantly and Bedivere stares right on back, unsure of what was happening right now. But the Ralts reacts quicker than he did, smiling impossibly wide for such a small creature and closes the distance between them to hug Bedivere's arm.]

Wha-?!

[So this was happening now. But he was unsure whether it was wild or if this one belonged to someone, it was always difficult to tell.]

Ralts, ralts!

G.

[Wildcard here.]

D

[adora_plz]

Yeah over there. Thanks.

[Adora was bucking crates as well for this part time job, and she was helping out. She was carrying things for the vendor, and she grinned at the knight.]

You're pretty strong.

Twilight Sparkle | Equestria Girls

[elementofnerdity]

Wildcard: Because I am The Most Shittiest Multi-tasker In the World

You might find Twilight Sparkle buried in rubble.

Or what is deemed as "Rubble".

In fact, this is a pile of organization. She has somehow, managed to get herself knee-deep in research. Ever wonder why they were there? So was she. But more to the point: WHY DID IV TRAINING EXIST IN THE ANIME WORLD? WHY DID ANY OF THIS WORK? Why did her Rotom sound like Jacksepticeye? Was this just reality?

"I GOT IT!" Exclaimed Twilight, slapping the pin-board, suddenly over lunch, looking demented as she pointed at the pinboard labeled Cheese. "I cracked the code."

No, Twilight, you just cracked yourself.


Wildcard 2: After a Shower and a Cleansing Fire

Twilight, felt better.

After scouring all of her built up exhaustion with a 15 hour nap, and finding her maniac research junked thankfully, she had decided to have dinner. Coming down for breakfast, she muttered, "Good morning," and blearily fixed her glasses and munched on toast.

Her Porygon buzzed at her worriedly as she rubbed its head a little. "I'm okay Einstein. I was just a little overworked. That's all."

"Pory." replied Porygon, nuzzling her hand.

"I'll get to school today. I promise."

Pokemon School

Going to Pokemon School was actually refreshing, and Twilight was looking forward to another day at Pokemon classes. everything was fun and exciting and oh look, PokeBase. Her worst class.

"I got it, I got it!" Exclaimed Twilight, the ball bouncing from her hands and off her forehead.

"I don't got it."

[burningbrighter]

"...cracked what code? Twilight, how long have you been in here?"

Sunset is just a little concerned. The fumes might be getting to her friend. She's crawled over the rubble toward her, rubbing her eyes and wondering just how this nightmare's going to go.

She offers her hand, biting her lip with worry.
