Chapter 2: The Coming Storm

The scene opens with the image of a thunderstorm at sea.  A small wooden raft seems to have been caught in it.

WHOOOOOOOSSSSSHH

F L A S H

"Hold on tight!  This storm is stronger than the others!"

"I know that!  Where did it even come from?"

"I don't know!  Did they find us, maybe?"

"I hope not!"

WHOOOOOOOOSSSSSSHHHHHH

"AAAAAAA!"
"AAAAAAA!"

What remains of the wooden raft floats atop the churning waves as lightning continues to strike through the air, the wind howling in an attempt to drown out the sound of the thunder.

The scene fades to black as the sound of waves, wind, and thunder continues...

It is now Day 12. (everyone gains 1 heartbeat exp and 1 Will)

After a week of little of note happening, everyone's been settling into a normal routine.  No major crises occur, there's surprisingly little trouble with the other teams at the Guild, and criminal activity and outlaw jobs seem to have a hit a low.  It's quiet.  Almost a little too quiet, considering Darkula escaped with the Dread Plate.

Until Sandshrew and Hippopotas, two of the town's local children, come running back to town one morning after going out to play, that is.

"Sheriff Flygon, Sheriff Flygon, there's a pokemon passed out on the beach!"

"A pokemon?  What kind of pokemon?"

"We don't know!  It looks like some kind of bird pokemon, though!"

"Alright, show me where they are so I can assess the situation."

Later, Flygon carries the bird pokemon, who sparkles like a Shiny pokemon and looks unlike any bird that Sahra Town has ever seen, into the guild and requests that Floette finds a room for them, and for Audino to administer medical aid.

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

@Lord Windos, your character wakes up in a room with an Audino gathering berries in the corner.  It's a strange and unfamiliar place, the temperature is strangely cool compared to what you're used to, and you feel sore all over.  It doesn't take long for Audino to notice that the metallic bird laying on the straw bed has woken up.  "Oh, you're finally awake!  That's great!  Here, eat this and don't move.  I need to examine you for injuries still."  Audino offers you an Oran Berry to eat.

(...)

'No, no! Why?! Did....did they do that? That's too - Ah........!'

....

*Splash, Woosh woosh, Chitter Chatter*

'I......survived? On.....the beach....? And...hear......others? Nnn......too......tired......ah......................'

....
.....
......
".............AH!"

The little bird jolts awake, frantically looking around its surrounding as it tries to get its bearings. What happened?! Where are they?! Who....who was responsible for what happened to them?! Answers, answers, they wanted ANSWERS!

It didn't take long for them to notice they weren't alone, causing them to freeze for a moment before they let out a polite cough and settled themselves, ruffling their sharp feathers to wick away the moisture in them. Despite their beaten and bedraggled state, the metallic avian looked the very picture of regal Beauty, their appearance, sleekness of their sparkly coat, and the way they held themselves all come together to present a very proper Pokemon.

At first they didn't speak, awaiting the...Audino to speak its word to them, giving them a piercing, searching look all the while. Upon doing so and offering the Oran, they cocked their head at the healer for a second, before careful plucking it out of their hand and daintily ate it, restoring them to Full HP. Once done, they went right back to staring at Audino for several second longer, until they finally deigned to speak.

"You may treat my injuries further now, healer. While you do so, may you tell me where I am, and how I happened to get.....here?"

Their voice was.....high pitched, but not unpleasantly so. Sorta like chimes, if more layered and nuanced. Their tone was a bit haughty, but cordial and very polite at the same time.
