[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

[Lord Windos]

(Noted, Windos.  I did notice he removed one of the two comments he made, so I'll keep a careful eye on those notes.  Anyways, regarding Buzzwole...well, I'll let Reiner explain.)
"Oh, will you now? Looks like I'll have be a bit stealthier in the future, hehe...
'Thank you.  About time you let me get a word in...*sigh*...well, simply put, we mashed it into a fine pulp, all right.  Or tried to , at any rate...oh, uh, one moment...before I forget...'

'ANGELICA!  Be a dear and bring us those Flying, Dark, and Fighting Z-crystals before Looker wakes up, would you?  Leave the Ghost and Poison ones for him to retrieve, please!'

'Okay, back to business...yeah, Breloom and I KOed Buzzwole.  Kingdra and Yang were freaking out along with everyone else who was still conscious.  One well placed Psychic while the bug was distracted took it down, thankfully.  And then I had Rhyxemplar turn it to mush with Horn Drill...sort of.  Seems it can't actually fully die...'
"Borderline Elderitch Abominations tend to be harder to kill than not, little drake. Then again, that didn't stop you....much."
(To be more specific, in order to fully kill it, you would either have to take it to its personal realm in Ultra Space or destroy its body completely somehow.  As things stand currently, it's going to take 2 weeks for it to regain all that health it's lost, and it's left it in an incredibly weakened state.)
"Unless dear Riza manages to get her hands on the Hack Pokeball while your guard is down, in which case...hehehe!"
'Yup...and for some reason...it's a little bit loyal towards me...you...urgh...uh...one of us.  Not sure who it would listen to right now, but...regardless, it's not fully unloyal.  Maybe because we proved our strength or something?'
"Partily."
(Well, there might be other factors.  Regardless, it hardly matters currently since it's in a coma for the next two weeks, unless you decide to try and expedite the process.  Moving on...)

'Yeah, so...Mina.  She's alive.  Still unconscious, but it seems everything went smoothly.  Seamlessly, even.  Her Ninetales was the one that sacrificed itself for her sake, so she's a bit...colder than usual.'

(Specifically, she seems to have inherited the icy fox's Dexterity and at least a small part of its Snow Warning ability.  Oh, and she's taller and has white hair.  Seems merging souls like that will always result in some sort of consequence, no matter how seamless the transition is.)
"Such is the nature of Soul Transmution, little drakes. Do you expect the merging and blending of the core aspects of a person's being to be an unintrusive process, hmm?"
(Oh, and technically, I was the one who spurred Windos to introducing himself to Reiner once Buzzwole was taken care of, since we're on that topic.  Reiner was left wondering just who the heck you'd been talking to during that battle, Mew, and I figured that getting the introductions over with sooner rather than later would be beneficial in the long run.  I wasn't intending to reveal myself, but then Reiner started getting a little out of hand...)

'Hey, watch it!  I'd just been turned into Mew and found out I was being toyed with!'
"That implies that I am treating you as nothing more than a fancy, which is the furthest from the truth. I just....enjoy seeing that look of frustration on your face, trying to figure out what you can not, hehehe...."
(At this point, we're ALL being toyed with, Reiner.  That man with Black and Gold eyes seems to have the ability to break the 4th wall, and he's hiding among Windos's actions here.  Even now, I'm sure he's watching...even if he's only spoken one time during this conversation so far.)
"Always watching, always waiting, always planning, hehehe.....Oh, I'll savior the moment when you Learn of me, heheheHA!"
'...*sigh*...alright, let's just...get this current mess sorted out.  Mew, you're going to have to be me for a little bit, I guess.  Just...be careful with 'me.'  You might...uh...have some interesting experiences in the next couple of minutes...could mess you up a little.  Our personalities are swapped but...well...not fully...we've both got a little of both of us in our personalities currently...oh, and sorry about the Rare Candies...used a Max Revive on myself already, so that was the only way to get you standing without waiting around since normal healing items weren't going to work...benefited almost everyone in the end though.  Feeling quite a bit bulkier now.  And a bit more skilled.'

Speaking of which, let's level Fight to 5 for 16 EXP using one of those two Skill cost halvings.  That's two stats maxed out now!
"Two down, and many more to go before you reach your zenith, countless battles and atrocities just waiting to be committed! I'm rather eager to see them all, so please, continue onwards your path of growth, hehehehe!"
'So, uh...what's our next course of action here, 'Reiner?'  We've captured Buzzwole (even if it is 'dead' for the foreseeable future), the Vampire's gotten away with Arial, we have a rough direction to start looking in if we want to try and figure out where she went, Mina could wake up at any moment, Emily could still get to meet one of her idols...we're going to have to explain to Mina what the heck just happened, though...'

'Personally, my recommendation is we get everyone together and head back to the Center after we explain what happened to Mina (assuming she wakes up soon...I hope she does...I'd rather not try to explain why she's unconscious to the nurse at the Center...her new appearance and abilities are going to be hard enough to account for as it is...).  Emily can still talk with Mina there, and we're all a little too roughed up right now to really risk being out and about for too much longer or go on a bug hunt...Mitchell is still out there looking for 'you', after all...'

'I know you just woke up and all, but everyone REALLY needs some direction here, and you're the one in charge currently, so...' "Oh, how rich. Yet again, you find yourself in charge of someone you care about, who trust you with their life. Will you fail him like you did with your last suitor? For your shake, you better hope not....."

Your police officer let out what sounded like a *Squeee!* of pure joy at being called 'dear' by you- you could feel the utter sastifaction pouring off them in waves- before they hurried scooped up the three afformention Z Crystals and rushed over to both you and 'Reiner's side, depositing them on the ground beside you, and then scampering back over to continue reviving 'Looker'. All of this was done in less than a minute. Talk about being properly motivated, eh?

'Reiner', on the other hand, looked less than thrilled with Buzzwole only being 'dead' and not DEAD, nor was 'he' please about how things IMMEDIANTLY broke down upon her partner 'Fainting' from that Mega Earthquake. They were somewhat mollified by the news of Mina's full recovery and 'improvements' bestowed upon her by the Improved Revival Ritual- 'At last, Windos does something actually decent for once, even if they had to be goaded into doing it!' - as that meant that tonight had not been a total wash for Emily and Reiner, but they went right back to being annoyed at being chastised by Spiritmon.

'Try dealing with them and their Tarous shit on a constant basis and see how you fail to have much patience with them, especially since they doesn't have to be such a troll with their influence over the world! I appreciate few pranks pulled off well, and a little mischief never hurt anyone tooooooo much if you do it right, but they just take it way too far!'

(Coming from the self proclaimed 'Master of Mischief' and 'The Stealthiest Prankster You'll Never Gosh Darn Know' , that is rather amusing, especially since I was the one that inspired you to take up such habits. Doth protest too much, methinks?)

'GGGGGrrrrraaaaaaGGGG! See what I have to deal with?! Ugggggh.....if only they weren't so purposely abrasive, I could maybe be a little more open minded when their finger is on the pulse, but he's like a massive lead brick: as long as its on your person, you are just going to be weighted down!'

On the other hand, even Dragonstrike only addressing THEM by a moniker doesn't stop the shivers that trail up everyone's spine, and just on the edge of your hearing you think you heard what sounded like laughter. You think.... When you all but thrust the mantle of responsibility of being the main Protagonist in the story upon 'him' THAT causes them to have a freak out a bit, their eyes widening to a significant degree at the proclamation, before they shook their head viscously and jabbed a finger straight towards you.

'NonononononononNO! WE both lead when its needed, Reiner, not just me, and I'm sure as heck not going to be the one to change that dynamic anytime soon! I don't care if we are experiencing THEIR twisted idea of a Terrifying Thursday as a result of them 'saving' us, I'm not going to let you be put down and throw to the side while everyone else does bunny hops on your own initiative! We are team and will always be that way, so don't you have Amensia on that partner!'

Your not so divine friend then lowered 'their' hand with a tired sigh and calmed back down after 'his' brief fitful backlash at the attempt to being put soley in charge, before they continued addressing the points you presented. They also managed to slowly get up from their prone position of the rough, fissured, and totally devastated asphalt  [Yikes, that going to be costly to repair!] they were uncomfortably lying on, rubbing 'his' temples to try to ease away the headache that was building up from all the stress and Pain/Chemical reactions they were currently suffering through. All that Vitality, hard living, and sheer determination on BOTH your parts certainly is something to behold, isn't it?

'*Sigh* Anyway, I don't think Mina going to wake up tonight at this point, since from my experience in Revival the being either wakes up almost instantly or stays in a death like coma for who knows how long, so she's probably going to get a room in the Center all to herself until she awakens. I also wouldn't worry too much about making a scene at the Center, because doesn't one of your fellow Rockets work undercover during the night shift there? If you just walk up to them ask tell them to pay no mind to your business and wave it off as a mission becoming ... complicated, they should listen to you and keep things quiet like the last time you ran into Mitchel. If that doesn't work, then your other buddy's word and smooth talking should do the trick, even if it involves them playing up or dropping their disguise more. As for Valarie granddaughter, I imagine you have enough control to just use Psychic on them and throw them halfway across town if they decide to be a pest tonight, and that not even consider what Yang, Kingdra, Breloom, Angelica, and Kyubi might do if they try waving that gun of their around at you. All of them and ESPECIALLY the fire fox and your thrall can be and.....twitchy when it comes to your wellbeing, Reiner, so if the Night Terror wants to come causing trouble for us tonight, then they are certainly going to get it!"

'Now, if you want my suggestion on what to do next, then I want to at least head over to where that flash of light Arial sent out for us to track him down, since its not like we have many other leads on how to find that bloody menance of society and her own personal swarm of equally deranged Bugs! If you are comfortable enough in MY body, you could use my powers to try a narrow down the general direction they fled in, or find something that could give us a vague idea of where to look next. Angelica and Petrel can help cover our backs while we move ahead and lick our wounds, and you *could* give her one of those Max Revives for Blissey for added protection/healing if you don't want to stockpile them for yourself for your battle against Clair or some other nuisance that comes out of the woodworks. Well, how about it Reiner?"

[I suggest for the shake of giving both Reiner and Mew some time to cope with ongoing events and not intruding into the plot every five second that we abstain or limit our own breaking the 4th Wall for now. If they need our input or help in anything, they'll surely let us know very quickly, I imagine....]
