[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Valder saves Ventus' ass by stepping in and displaying knowledge of the Secret Library, neatly cutting off his employer.

"Yeah, the Waters are trying their own hand at things. They're racing to the Library too. Honestly I think they are more interested in stopping us than getting there themselves. They've done a lot of things to mess with us, including betrayal of other Scimitars. Leaking information to our enemies."

"Erm, The Gauntlet?" He laughs nervously. "I think you mean 'gauntlets,' and Grunts don't get those. Right, Mr....?" This last part is directed at Ventus. He wants to know Ventus' name, and both Valder and Ventus can tell he's lying about The Gauntlet.

"So, yeah, apparently this Shiva girl who just got slaughtered by a freakin' Taillow, she knows something about the Library's location. Once we find out what she knows, we can get in there ourselves. Every Scimitar has different reasons for wanting to get inside - who wouldn't? - but we are united! Ha, look at that little Cherubi. These people act like Pokemon are so great, and then they purposely use the weakest ones possible? Ridiculous. Pokemon should be...like, heard and not seen."

"As I was trying to say, we know the Library is underneath Mt. Sentry, but even after months of work we haven't mapped all the tunnels. Not even Cosh. So we're trying to find it another way. You, Grunt, how close are you to your Ritual of Wielding?" Valder seems to be "Grunt."

Heart could notices the commotion in the Tanuki tower. "What the hell? Is something happening?" (Roll the dices to see if Heart can notice something Iron; Perhaps Insight+Knowledge+Alert). He prepare himself for the worse. (Assuming there is some kind of PC around here) Heart make some quick changes in his team. Rose, Koa, Gustav, Viktor, Tynamo and Percival its in his party ready to fight any kind of danger.

Hmm, to be honest, that was to be expected, but... It does not help a trace of dissapointment over the loss meaning she's out of the Tourney, but that feeling relatively quickly fades and makes room for enjoyment over having faught a good battle against great scientific Pokemon, as well as the knowledge that she and Nightshade were able to perfom a spectacular Final Act, which ended the rainfall and earned her the Queen's praise. Aww, to be very honest, now Shiva looks forward to actually meeting Tanuki in a real Gym Battle - that was a realization and sensation she had to get used at first, as it was completely new to her.

Once she has congratulated Carmen to her victory and wishing her good luck on her further battles and Shiva's participants were both healed back to Full Health by a present Nurse Joy ("What a service, thank you very much!~ And good call, fainting may not be the best experience...") and she was just about to head up to the audience's ranks to watch the further battles, she DID notice that commotion at sweet Tanuki's tower. Looking up to her, it seems like it either doesn't bother her or she does not notice at all... This made her frown, wonder, and immediately give her a feeling like something...was not going as it should be. What...was it this time?! Part of her was scared over the answer, Reshiram knows what a commotion during an Event with many people present could mean; part of her was...plain curious.

However, since she is a respectful person who rather chooses to stay out of the ruccus if she can prevent it and it does not directly affect her, she opts to leave this alone - for now. If she wasn't mistaken, there were League Officials around, were there? Looking around, she tried to find one for the sake of informing them about what was going there as the base of the Tower... As they were pretty much the better choice to do something about that than she was, and it doesn't hurt to let them now.

3 Insight + 3 Survival + 2 Alert, -2 for Tanuki's distraction
(1)(5)(6)(3)(4)(4)

Heart can see a few policemen heading down toward the commotion, which was initially caused by a soda guy trying to go through an Employees Only door to get more sodas. 

To reach a PC you will have to go allllll the way out of the stands to the registration area. That'll take some time.



As for Shiva, the League official just thanks her gruffly and asks her to move along.
Your fainted Pokemon will take some time to be restored to battle-worthy condition again, as they don't have an actual Healing Machine here, just care. But they do gain a lot of comfortable attention, diminishing any Happiness loss that fainting would cause. Nurse Joy chats about how crucial Happiness is to a baby Pokemon.

(In this case I will just join with Shiva without change my team)


Heart when noticing the police he simple join with Shiva without changing his team. Is better be in group for any problem. "Shiva! I think there something wrong in the tower. There are some police there!" Say Heart when finally reach Shiva.

Ventus didn't overly display his gratitude for Valder's timely rescue, but he did give his mercenary a nod of his head for their input, before stepping back in the conversation with the 'gentlemne'

"The Water Scimitars.......always a nuisancense......eh?  The Library might be......coveted by us all.........but that should not incite us to become traitors for the cause," he said, spitting at the last part with a bit of venom darkening his tone, until he 'calmed' himself down and continued. "Sorry about that.......outburst. Betrayel is a......sensitive subject for me. Yes, I do believe my Grunt is.......mistaken, as he often is when he speaks of things......he doesn't know of. My name.......Hasmed. "

The disguised researcher then remained silent as the Scimitar droned on about his dearest friend's defeat, and exposting completely bullshit Anti-Pokémon/Human Supremisist statements, before incline his head towards the man. "Interogating a woman for a shortcut to the Library......or trying to find one at any rate.  My preference would have been to.......secretly aduct her to cause less of a......scene, but this has more deniability I suppose. So long as we find the Library, all will have been worth it..."

"Ah.....is their a bathroom nearby I can use? I feel nature calling.......and I should go head it before it goes looking for me. I'll leave my Grunt here to help tidy things up......if you would like......"

Hmpf, home in Unova the League Officials are more friendly. But fine, she'll move along if that's what they want - this does not really diminish that bad feeling she has, so she keeps an eye on that whole scenario... Does it have to do with why she didn't manage to find Nathan earlier? ...Maybe? Maybe not and she was just overthinking again? Argh, no answers...

Naturally Shiva knows how crucial Happiness and a safe environment are for a young Baby Pokemon. She does not reply or comment on that, but expresses agreement to Joy's chatting while watching how she cared for her not-anymore-bittersweet cherrylike companion and her psychic kitten. She hopes that these waves of psychic energy Kyuu was emitting yesterday weren't an obstacle in any manner for that care, if her Espurr was still doing this unknowingly that is.

He directs you across the hall, leaving Valder alone with the Scimitars.

Shiva stays relatively calm about Heart coming to her, visibly in an uproar. "Hello at first, Heart. Yes, I've noticed that too - I've told a League Official, but they seem to know about that already. They can probably handle things on their own, no reason for us to intervene. Want a soda?"

Upon entering the bathroom, the first thing Ventus does is to check to see if their are any cameras inside it. If their were not, he would then pull out his Scanner and swept every inch of the room for listening devices. If their were, he would go directly into a stall that is farthest away from any camera/hides him mostly. Right now, he has to make absolutely sure he has the privacy he desires, or otherwise things could go sour rather quickly.....
