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

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

'.....T-t-thank you for your kind words, sir. M-makes me glad to know that-that I'm doing a good job protecting Celadon City, despite all the trouble that has been cropping up this Flower Festival. First Romeo and Juliet, then that Vampire, and now Clair.....if it weren't for your invaluable assistance, I don't think I could have handled all this mounting pressure.....'

Angelica goes silent for a moment yet again, but this time you feel its due to her trying to will away her current state of distress so that she speak clearly and without worrying you. This gave you the opportunity to give the abridged version of the events surround your banishment from Blackthorn to the chief inspector without interruption, and hopefully gave her all the time needed to fully calm down. That is, if this story doesn't cause any adverse emotional reaction in her, of course.

'.......Oh my. That's....that's AWFUL  to hear sir! I understand that Blackthorn handles laws and rulings differently that most other cities, but banishing a minor for simple theft and losing control of their Pokémon is much to extreme, especially since you are such a wonderful, magnificent person! They could have taken away your Pokémon and have you doing community service and/or serving time instead, but they didn't and went way, way too far with their judgement just because you went against their expectations! Now....now they even sending your own family to hunt you down, even after taking almost everything from you.......that too much. FAR TOO MUCH!'

You could feel the surge of hurt, anger and resentment from your servent on behalf of your grievances and plight caused by the Elders, as well as a burning desire to avenge and protect you from further loses being inflicted upon you by those cranky, senile old men!

'The Blackthorn Elders have gone past the point of reasonable judgement AND well out of their jurisdiction by sending your their city's Gym Leader and your cousin to bring you in for trail for crimes they already over punished you for. I'll see to it that when I return to the Police Station I'll inform my squad of the situation, and put them on alert to stop Clair if she get out of hand and stop her from detaining a lawful citizen of Celadon City. I'll also try to get Officer Samael to speak with Erika and ask her to intervene on your behalf to prevent hostilities from escalating, but given Clair's reputation for being.....explosively tempered, she might choose to avoid confrontation entirely. Do I have your permission to enact these plans, sir?'

'...I appreciate the offer, Angelica, but that'll likely only make the situation worse, particularly since Samael was trying to keep her arrival quiet.  And Clair will probably crush anyone who dares try to intervene.  She's loaded up with everything she can that might help her defeat me at any cost from what I've heard.  Full Restores, Max Revives, various methods to stop my usual battle strategies, a very powerful, ancient relic of Blackthorn's that even Legendaries fear...she means business.'

'Our best bet would probably be to try and catch her off guard instead.  I need to talk to her, and that'll be difficult if I'm staring her down in the middle of a battle, or have to worry about her changing her mind and unleashing her pokemon or that weapon on me at a moment's notice.  Not likely to improve my image in her eyes, but what other choice is there?  And if it does come to battle...I can't fight fairly if I hope to win, which certainly won't improve her mood any...'

'I'll also be talking with Erika tomorrow at the earliest opportunity, so if I have great need to appeal to her for aid, I can.  I've known Clair's been coming for a couple days now, and I've been trying to figure out how best to handle this without causing too much trouble for the festival...'
