"Well, I think some nicknames are in order as well, don't you?  Going to get confusing if I have to call you both Eevee all the time, isn't it?  How about...Ridia and Poe?  I think that has a nice ring to it.  A powerful name for our resident dragon-fox, and a simple, sorta spooky one for our ghost-fox."

...

...this tense, thick air of danger...

...

...Clair.  It has to be.

...

...yup, she means business if she's riling up the authorities, Lindworm, and Team Rocket just by being here...

...

Reiner texts Angelica back.  He could worry about how she got his number later.

Angelica, I'm en route to the tea shop now.  Keep an eye on the area as you normally would.  Be ready to get Erika if things start going sour.

...

Reiner wasn't going to hide from Clair.  Nope.  He just hoped she'd talk first, shoot later...the sooner they got this over with, the better.  Still, better not drop his guard...

One quiet order for the female Eevee: "Ridia, stay alert please.  There's a lady with light blue hair, blue eyes, and a cape somewhere around here...and I need to know immediately if you see her or sense any danger, got it?"

And one wakeup call for Mew: 'Mew, wake up if you haven't already. Clair's here, and she's ruined the festival's atmosphere.  Be ready and watchful.'

Big Sis Eevee mulls over your choice of name for a moment, before she gave you a sharp nod of her head, as the newly christened Ridia liked the sound and power behind her new title! Likewise, the runt adored the name you gave him, snuggling up even more in your arms and giving you a close-eyed smile. Urk.....your not sure your heart can take much more concentrated cuteness.....!

*Scene Transition!*

Ridia snaps to attention the moment you order vigilance, and begins to patrol within a given radius to you, sweeping their gaze for the threatening person matching the description you gave her! As for Mew, it took half a minute for her to respond, her own telepathic message twinged with drowsiness but still gravely aware that their peacefulness was about to shatter. 'Got it, Reiner. I'll try casting my own empathetic senses from my Pokeball, since releasing me right now would obviously do the opposite of drawing attention away for you. Until we finally confront her, stay safe Partner.....'

Angelica texted you back with a "Affirmative!" response, and with that you made your way towards the Tea Shop to finish that last piece of business......

.....but before you could get make headway towards the Tea Shop, you felt someone place a hand on your shoulder from behind.

"Well well well, look who I just found, walking around like an outcast and a thief in the streets of Celadon. Its my estranged cousin, Reiner."

A hauntingly familiar voice says this, and in the next instance their hand tightens like a vice grip, and an almost suffocating aura of righteous fury and indignation washes over you. If it wasn't for the remarkable mental AND physical fortitude you've gained over this past weak, you would have crumpled right then and there, but you prevail against their Strength and undiluted WRATH .

"Hmpt, put on some decent bulk, haven't you little dragon? Perhaps the Elders throwing you out was not a completely moronic idea, if you've improved this much, or finally learned how to tap into the Arendse talent. Shame you wasted both on life of crime, shamming EVERYONE in Blackthorn City. Our Tradition, our Culture, our Family...."

Their scorn washes over you like Dragon Breath, leaving you momentarily paralyzed as they continued to almost idly chat with you.

"Guess its not all that bad, though. At least when I pummel you into the ground and beat some Arceas damn sense into your thick skull, you won't be reduced to a total bloody pulp. I don't like beating up weaklings anyway, so at least you have that to your credit."

A humorless laugh escaped their lips, haughty and derisive.

"Now, why don't you turn around and greet your older cousin? I'd kill to see your face after so long, you know. Don't you feel the same, Reiner?"

With agonizing slowness, they let go of your shoulder, allowing you to spin around and confront you assailant, someone you know all to well.


Clair Aren- Wait, what.

Standing before you is someone that distinctly does not look like your viscously angry cousin, but a equally viscous smirking yet finely dressed woman. Yet despite her appearance, you knew it was Clair. The voice, the almost overwhelming Strength, the casual mention of your exile, their brusque manner.....it was truly her.

What.

Something else was caught attention beside their radical appearance, though: her necklace. Like a flaming hot magnet it, it drew your gaze and almost seemed to pulse with power, and in response Mamudo Eclipse emanated its tenubreous aura, its 'declaration' starkly appearing in your mind's eye.

MEGIDEO 'S REVELATION. OWNER: Clair TARGET: Self

Welp, you now know without a shadow of a doubt that THAT is your older cousin Clair.

Fuck.
