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

[Spiritmon]

Spoiler

Item #1:

[Alright, good.  Now then, time to wait for Mew to pay Reiner's character sheet a visit...have a new tab set up for it.]

Item #2:

Reiner swears and dials again.  Probably gets the same result, much to his frustration, right?

Still an item #2.5 to do, though, so this one isn't quite finished yet...

Items #3 and 4:

Well, before Reiner evolves Ridia, he'll want to fetch Emily and have a quick talk with her (and also potentially show her the evolution).  But that should probably wait until we've dealt with Sliggoo...

Reiner isn't surprised about the...affection Sliggoo is displaying, but he is a little surprised by the...intensity of said affection.  Sliggoo might not be able to see, but he knows the species can definitely hear, so he makes sure to make his next comment loud enough for the draconic slug to pick up on.  "...Sliggoo, you might want to stop embarrassing your trainer by literally suffocating him with affection and actually listen to what he has to say."  That should also definitely indicate to Sliggoo that she and Lindworm aren't alone in this room.  Hopefully that's enough to get her to calm down at least a little...

Item #5:

When Durendal comes over and after Arial hands him the Razor Fang, Reiner says, "You're welcome, by the way.  Just use that fang for a little while instead of another item, and you should evolve eventually."

He levels a narrow eyed stare at Arial next.  "And what has your knickers in a twist this time?" (@Spiritmon)

Item #5.5:

(Note: Reiner's got that same Face Camo disguise he was using earlier active whike talking to Fluidity, obviously.  Just so that's clear.)

"Does getting turned into an exact look-alike of my sister count?  Seriously, that felt...way too weird.  Wasn't really that different from my usual self, but in some ways, it certainly felt like I actually was her...*shudder*..."

Oh, and if Fluidity wants to nickname her new GTH Beedrill, she's free to do so.  Reiner doesn't really have any ideas of his own atm, though, and also makes sure to warn Fluidity to be as respectful of the bee's opinion as possible (probably doesn't need to be said, but better safe than sorry)

----------------------

Sure, let's do a scene with Frosslad, followed byAdam.  Reiner's quite curious about Frosslad too, and it's probably about time he introduced himself to the massive Ferrothorn.  One at a time, though.

Reiner immediately tosses Frosslad a Ranc Berry as a welcome gift upon releasing him.  "Nice to meet ya, Frosslad.  Name's Reiner."

Item #6:

"Well, you certainly look like you've been having just as fun of a week as I've been.  Just wanted to let you know that I'm going to be at the Nuclear Research Facility downtown for a little while.  Don't want anyone to panic while I'm off the grid."

Reiner says it so casually that Proton probably has to double check that he heard that correctly...

Arial try to put her worries aside. He put one hand on her shoulder, and try to give some words of comfort. "Dont worry about me Riza. I have some good protection against Nucmons just in case. My clothes is made against radioactivity in that place and have some items to protect my pokemon. I also have 2 Steel type pokemon with me and one Nuclear Queen. I have some good protection against those problems. I am worried about you Riza. As much your bugs have resistance against Nuclear, there is something in that place very much dangerous. I..." Arial blush a little. "I cant handle see you go there and your pokemons got hurt because of me. Even if we know each other just for a time, I worry about you. And you have only five or four pokemon with you. You have a extra pair of hands is important."

Arial then looks in the eyes of Riza. "But if is important to come, then you can go with me. But please, have all the security on the world okay? We not certain what more is inside in that Factory. Can I count with you Riz?"

*Flashback!*

The insectile Metahuman twitched/slightly in surprise/tension as you rested a hand on her shoulder, but soon the gesture are you reassuring words that followed we a balm for her nerves, calming her down as she leaned a little in your touch.

{Afraid.....Afraid For You, Arial. Glowing Monsters......Scary. BAD. They Burn, Destroy.....CHANGE Everything. Plants, Pokémon....Humans. Don't....Want Happen To You. Don't....Want Go Without...…Me.}

{…But...Can....Accept. You Strong.....Brave. Kind.....Caring. Handle Anything.....Me Too. If Want, Me Hunt More. For Bug/Steel...Strong Pokémon. Me Leave You....But Trust. Trust You Be Safe. With Grandmother....Darkness.....Yourself.}


{ Me....Follow....Protect You Arial. No...No Want You Hurt. Want Make....Safe. Forever. ……Me Do Else. If Arial Want Protect Me...…}

Her strange chittering goes silent as she sags into hereself, feeling both highly concerned for you going in the NRF without her, yet completely willing to let such a thing come to pass. Not because she want to best prepare herself for the unholy nightmare that was that place, for she both felt that she was more or less ready for ANYTHING at this point in her life (A life on the run being a literal blood thirsty monster of a serial killer does that to a person....thing). No, it was because she understand you were just as worried about her as she was about you, and didn't want to burden you with those feeling, or worse yet do something foolish if coming in with less than 6 Pokémon DID cause a deadly mishap on her part.
Sometimes, you have to do things you don't like in order to help the others you care about, and if that meant she had to briefly abandon Arial....then she could accept that, and move forward.

With Reiner:

Arial takes a while to finally spoke about what happened. "Bad news to be honest boss. Remember when I was serious this morning? Well...its because I have some sort of vision. I was thinking it was a dream, but it was so much real to be just a dream. First of all, I have heard the voice of the person I have heard before: When I was in the hideout of Riza, and the other when I meet that Delta Muk. That dark voice you did not tell me anything yet. Anyway, I have this vision:

Arial Dream

You find yourself looking high above a old, venerable forest, where the trees towered high into the sky and the very air seemed charge with an ancient, all to knowing lifeforce. Your vision hovers across the green, lush treetops until you spot a clearing that seemingly came out of know, and from the looks of it the place seemed almost blasted into existence. At that point, you saw what appeared to be a tiny spec sitting in the middle ofthere, and soon you found your perspective zooming all the way up and close to get a better view of them. 


What you saw was.....perplexing, even for a Insane person such as yourself.

Sitting on a stump, was a small little girl, appearing no older than ten or eleven years of age. She was wearing what looked to be an classical and old royal purple satin dress festooned with white frills on its trim, and had a pair of pearly white slipper shoes on her feet as they dangled off into the air. Her hair was the color of pure gold, and was in twin tails tied up with Red/Dark Purple Inside them Bead Scrunchies. She had rich, warm brown eyes that stared at an a journel she was currently doodling in, her skin was smooth, unblemished, and slightly tanned, and her nails painted purple.

Overall, this little girl appeared to be slightly anachronistic, but normal otherwise.

What ruined this was that her ENTIRE surrounding seemed like they were utterly DESTORYED, yet she was completely and utterly unharmed, and in fact looked rather radiantly happy as they scribbled something or another in that book of theirs. The large sniper rifle that hung on their back also didn't help make this image seem any less bizaare:




In fact.....the more you look at it, the more its seemed.....familiar to you, somehow. The color, the design, and that faint aura you could FEEL from it....it all just seemed to tickle you broken brain at how ODD yet NORMAL and KNOWN to you.....

When the little girl jolted up to stare at YOU, and you suddenly found the sniper rifle being pointed straight at YOU, you realized just WHAT you were staring at, as you read the OTHER golden inscription that was hidden to you before:

Uh oh.

Just when you though you'd be getting a sniper facial from the now extremely dangerous girl, she suddenly perked up and gave you a charming, perky, and extremely exuberant smile, putting away her CA faster than you could comprehend as she waved at you.

"A Cursed Arm Wielder! Hello~! Its been soooooo long since I've meet with another one!  I'm so happy to see you, yay!!!'

...


"….Ooooooh, and you have T.P.K with you too. *Looks sad for a moment, before going right back to happy like nothing happened* Hopefully my child Juliet found her crush before you killed her, or had lots of fun with it if she didn't! My gift to her wouldn't mean much of anything otherwise, te he~!"

…

"Hmm.....since you own T.P.K., I guess that make you my child now! Goody~!! Momma Alice gonna to pay you a visit to see how your doing REALLY soon, so don't fret! I'll even bring some more toys and gifts for you to play with! Maybe a stuffed kitty cat, or some Moo Moo Milk? 'Cause with a name like Schrödinger, you must LOVE kitty cats! Meow meow~!"

…

"Te he....I'll find something nice for you and your.....friend? Yes yes, you DO have a friend, and THEY have a Cursed Arm TOO! I can FEEL it, and it feels so WONDERFUL~!!! Ahahahaha! Another child for me to dote on, horray! Shopping for them is gonna be difficult, but I'll find the right present for them! Two new, special children of mine....oh, I'm sososo HAPPY."

…

"Weeeeeeell, I'd like to talk to you all night, but you need to get your rest minster, or otherwise you won't grow up to be big and strong someday! Staying up is a big no no I learned from my Momma, so I have to make sure you learn it too! Good night, my child! I'll see you and your friend soon, te he~!"

At that point the girl named Alice reached forward with tender, MAD affection in their eyes and smile, and you then blacked out.

"Another Cursed Wielder is followed us boss. One with a dangerous and mad as Romeo and Juliet...no, even more mad I believe. Her name is Alice as far I could know. And the worse of all...I was able to see the name of her Cursed Arm":

Cursed Arm Name: Miss Die For Me!



With Riza:

Arial could understand the words of Riza. Indeed that would be the most dangerous mission ever do in his life. More dangerous than the mission of fighting against Romeo and Juliet with Reiner (with Arial was obliterated and receive a shot in his head because of Tobias in Juliet hands). The place is overun with many Nucmons, and something so dangerous who rivals Legendary pokemon. There is a chance Arial or his pokemons may die in that place. But this is something Arial want to avoid as much possible. Arial hold a hand on her face for a few minutes when he finally spoke once again.

"Yeah...I must confess too Riza...I am afraid too. Even back in Tandor, I never face such dangerous mission as this one: To go a place with Nuclear Pokemon. And with something powerfull enough to rival a Legendary Pokemon...even if I a madman, even I know how much dangerous it is." Then he open a weak smile. "But I guess such is the fate and burden of a Rocket. A villain and criminal: Your life is always in risk. But..."

Then he a aproach just a little more of Riza, theyre faces very close. "But I cant risk your life Riza. Not without I sure you 100% ready to go. I cant afort you go without proper protection. So please...be careful. And find the last pokemon you need for the mission." Then Arial open a sly smirk. "If you dont have enough motivation, perhaps this will do..."

Then Arial made a unpreditable move: The madman give a kiss on the lips of the bug woman. Not a fake kiss just to enjoy. But a truth love kiss. Even if Arial and Riza meet each other for a brief time, they form some sort of...conection. They both suffer the injustice of the world, and both of them was abbandoned for the humanity. They find comfort with their respective pokemons: Arial with his brothers and sister. Riza with their hive. It doesn't matter if Riza its a bug woman, a freak of nature in the eyes of humans, and Arial its a twisted and mad human. What really matter its the feeling they both share to each other. The madman and the bug woman have their own piece of the world there.

That kiss its not a goodbye, but a brief meeting. 

Finally after some minutes, Arial finally broke the kiss and look on the eyes of the problably shocked Bug Woman. He give her a sly cat smile then talk again. "This was amazing." He blush a little. "I hope I doesnt disapointed you Riza, heh. I a inexperience kisser I afraid."
