DREAM 020 [VIDEO] - fastforwarded to 10.29.2011

[ Hey there, Johto! So, it's been a while since anyone have seen a network entry from Souji that isn't goofy like so and so. Therefore, here's an entry in which it's about serious things, but even so, he keeps a smile on. ]

Hey guys, it's Souji here.

It's been a long while, so I'm here to tell you guys that the list of Pokemon eggs over at the Breeding Centre has been updated with a few new Pokemon. Give me a call at the Centre's voicemail if you're interested in an egg. Someone will answer you as soon as possible or you can just ask for an egg right here. For all those who have been in Johto for a month or less, you can get your first three eggs free of charge. We only ask that you spread the word around about the centre.

Also for those who have missed it, we also got a foster home running alongside with the Breeding Centre. It's still somewhat new, but we'll hope to get it running along soon. Ask Merlin over at his gear if you want to drop off a Pokemon, adopt one, or ask for any info, or ask me. Either one of us is good.

[ He takes a pause here though, clearly thinking of something for a few seconds before saying the last bit of this feed; ]

One last thing: I'm heading to Cianwood the first week of November and collecting all the badges of the city I pass to get there. I'm wondering if anyone is interested in tagging along with me since company is always nice. I know it's a short-notice, but if you want to tag along, just give me a heads-up. I'll greatly appreciate it.

[ And with that, the feed ends! ]

(( ooc: tags will be set before the fight log that will be happening between Souji + Yosuke! ))

DREAM 019 [TEXT/ACTION IN GOLDENROD]

[ Just a normal day at the Breeding Centre. It's actually a bit dull today since business is slow, so Souji has decided to go on his break and hang out in the Breeding Centre House's living room. Anyone walking along will see him looking quite focused at texting something in his gear. ]

DREAM 017 [VIDEO/ACTION ON ROUTE 44]

[ The video feed clicks on and the first thing that the camera shows is the dirt ground beyond a ridiculously cracked screen. It stays that way and the audio is muffled, probably because of a hand being placed over the mic by accident (or has it been done on purpose?). It's difficult to tell, but it seems as if this is being recorded in the middle of a battle. What else can all of those shouts, shrieks, sound of attacks be?

It continues on for a few more minutes, just nothing but a view of the floor, occasionally moving about to a different patch and perhaps a gust of dirt flying over. However, the screen finally lifts up towards a small field of grass a few feet away in which a Skarmory is standing in an offensive position. Just not too far from it is what most people might recognize by now: a Shedninja. However, before it can do anything such as stealing souls or be captured inside a specially made Pokeball, it flees and quickly disappears.

The Skarmory loosens up and stares at the holder of the Pokegear, confused. The camera turns once again towards this person and Souji also holds the look of confusion, just showing it less and looking more tired.

He pushes up his glasses- the ones that does nothing at all in this world and situation though always seem to calm him down when placed on -and looks only at the ground or gear. He has been trying his best into not looking around carelessly and possibly into the back of a soul-sucking bug. Throughout that whole battle just now, he has been focusing mostly on the ground to prevent anything while occasionally looking up in which he has noticed something that's... well this: ]


Hey, is it just me or are the Shedinjas not stealing the souls of Pokemon? My Skarmory seems completely fine despite accidentally looking into its back more than once.

[ Which is odd due to the Pokedex saying it'll steal whoever looks into its back or are just Skarmories immune to soul-sucking? Well, his question is asked and he's in a bit of a rush here, so the feed turns off! ]


[ flitered text to Chie + Merlin + Teddie ] )


[ flitered text to Kanji ] )

(( ooc: tags will come in the morning and Shedninjas won't steal a Pokemon's soul is what mods have said right over here! ))

DREAM 015 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD]

[ The video feed starts up at a very horrible angle, almost as if the gear has been tossed to the side carelessly. In fact, that's exactly what that is what has happened and that this entry is not an ordinary one; it's an accidental one.

As soon as this entry feed opens up on the gear, there will be nothing but loud sounds of screaming and the sound of something-- a combination of what sounds like giant Pokemon all screeching, people screaming, rubble falling everywhere, and-- if anyone has heard this before --the sound of a Hyper Beam being charged up then used. It’s loud and is just filled with disaster, easily heard even if the volume down to the lowest setting.

All of this is occurring by the near entrance of the Goldenrod City where the Yu and Yuudai breeding centre stands; the one centre that its owner has taken the time to find a centre that connects to a house to make it both a place to live and work. This centre has provided many eggs to new homes, new trainers, and has given different people jobs and a place to call their home for a while. It’s a large two-floored building, built strong and stable, easily standing against natural disasters such as storms and strong winds. On the other hand, what can it not stand against?

Two Gyarados and their Hyper Beams.

It’s hard to see anything with the Pokegear thrown to the ground along with it being night time, getting a view of this catastrophe all from a horizontal view, but it takes no genius to figure out what is going on especially with all the noise. Although sometimes foots block the views or sudden waves of dust, everything recorded is clear as day.

Two Gyarados-- one that belongs to Souji Seta and the other of Kagami Hiiragi --sit tall in front of the centre, obviously distressed by a radio signal that they can hear. They trash around, swinging their mighty tails around to keep any that try to come close further back. Already has part of the centre’s second floor have been demolished, easily taken out by a few attacks.

All those inside have left the building though from this angle and the chaos, it’s hard to tell; whenever if all the eggs have been safely moved to the outside and to someplace safe is unknown as well. It’s difficult to tell what’s going on, both through watching the video feed and actually being there in person. With all the loud noise, it’s hard to hear anything properly.

Suddenly, a bright flare blinds the video feed in white and Souji’s loud voice could be heard; ]


Everyone, get down!

[ Followed is the sound of heavy footsteps against rough concrete, screams of both fear and panic, then finally, a loud roar.

Everything shakes and the sound of more rubble falling from yet another part of the building’s second floor collapsing, bricks and sheer destruction flying everywhere.

Souji covers his mouth from the sudden gust of dust everywhere and coughs, his eyes watering. He pulls out his glasses from his breast pocket with his free hand and slips them on, providing him with some kind of protection for his eyes.

He looks up at the centre that he has once called home and work, watching it quickly getting destroyed. As if the two sea dragons haven’t caused enough, a fire begins to start from the dragon rage attack in the second floored room that the eggs have once called home. Noticing this, Souji calls out to everyone once again; ]


Hold off on using wind attacks! The fire can spread!

[ Souji grits his teeth and looks around. He doesn’t have any electric Pokemon strong enough to even last a chance against two powerful creatures such as this. At this point, the one Pokemon that Souji can trust on this was his starter.

He reaches into his bag and pulls out a Pokeball, tossing it in front of him. Out appears his Skarmory, the only one on his team stronger than his Gyarados and has a greater chance of standing against it. Without a moment of hesitation, Souji beings to yell out his command; ]


Izanagi, Steel Wing on both of them!

[ The Skarmory nods and quickly flies over to the two Gyarados, ready to attack until a large tail comes up to swat it away like an annoying fly. Completely taken by surprise and unable to connect its attack, Izagani gets thrown back and nearly crashes straight into its trainer. Souji quickly jumps out of the way, but the Pokemon lands right onto the Pokegear.

With a loud cracking sound of the screen, the feed goes black, leaving only the sounds of the destruction to be remembered. ]




(( ooc: TL;DR? Two large Gyarados are destroying the breeding centre that Souji owns in Goldenrod. There’s fire, rubble, lots of destruction. Everyone inside is out and the eggs are in a safe location, but they have two Pokemon to deal with. Feel free to tag this if your character is in Goldenrod and want to stop the Gyarados before they fully destroy the second floor and then the whole centre! Those can reply their concerns over video, but it might take a while before a message is given back and if done so, with a very cracked looking screen!

This is a continuation of this log! ))

DREAM 014 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD W/ RISE, SOUJI, YOSUKE]

[ Hello, Johto! It looks like a fine day out today! Fair weather, nice sunshine, everything great to go outside in! It will not be a surprise to see that a lot of Pokemon are outside-- running and playing --taking advantage of the nice afternoon. With Johto's strange and sudden changes in weather, it is always best to take the time and go outside before it gets too cold or hot.

However, that's not these three Cleffas are doing.

Inside Goldenrod's Department Store, one might run across this small costume aisle-- one specifically just for Pokemon --and perhaps see three little Cleffas, trying on different costumes; tuxes, devils, other Pokemon, hearts, all that! While this is happening, three little Pokegears lie on the ground nearby, recording them. Each one of those gears belonging to each one's trainer. Well, they gotta record themselves putting on these costumes, right?

They continue to change through costumes until they find a nice themed one! In just about a few seconds, these three are no longer just Cleffas, they are...

The Cleffamigos. ]


[ The three of them begin to dance around, quite satisfied with their new costumes. Hope you don't mind watching the three amigos having their party though if you listen just verrrrrrry carefully... You just might hear three trainers- Rise, Souji, and Yosuke -looking for their little Cleffa trio. ]


(( OOC: Kia is held responsible for starting this madness and she held a gun to my head to do this OH MY GOD HELP ME SHE FOUND OUT OH GOD SHE'S COMING CLOSERAS;LDFASLKDWAFLIJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ

--I mean, you can tag this with your own Pokemon to talk to the Cleffamigos, have your character find them in the department store, have your character help Rise, Souji and Yosuke find their Cleffas, or have your characters speak via gear where both Rise, Souji, or Yosuke will reply to after thirty minutes!

Yosuke may or may not reply due to hiatus, and Souji tags will be slow due to I also being on hiatus and still sick 8'C ))

DREAM 013 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD]

[ It's been a few days since Souji has set up his breeding centre and he has gotten it all under control. Business has been busy nowadays and lots of orders piling up, so Souji has been kinda living in the centre for a while now. Well, actually, he can kinda live there since he has an extra room upstairs with a bed, so he can just crash over there which he is kinda thinking about doing. Saves money too.

Well, besides that, Souji looks a bit tired and he is. Trying to make sure the eggs get to everyone and all that, then making sure his Pokemon are doing alright, filling out more papers, it's just a hassle. Plus, he has that egg from Easter to look after. See that egg wrapped around a scarf on the counter? Yeah, he's been trying to take care of it in the mix of everything. Pretty hard, if anyone asks him.

He gives a small yawn and takes a sip from his coffee. He really does need it nowadays and he gives a small wave to the Pokegear. ]


Hey guys.

I have centre running and business is actually going well. Got an answering machine set up now actually. If you want to order an egg, just give me a call there and leave a message. I got a bunch of eggs around here, so just give me a heads-up and I can send them your way.

If anyone is interested in doing business with me, like selling eggs too, needing a Ditto, helping around, I wouldn't mind that. Just give me a heads-up for this too and I'll be probably fine with it.

[ Honestly, any business pals will be nice. He wouldn't mind advertising other people's eggs too or anything.

He takes another sip from his coffee cup and reaches for the gear. This seems like a good place to end his little advertisement when-- Oh snap! Souji's Easter egg is hatching! Oh oh oh, Souji has to record this, so he puts down his cup of coffee and picks up the gear to record this.

The egg shines brightly for a few seconds before the Pokemon appears into-- ]



Ack--!!

[ Souji just steps back in both a mixture of surprise and horror. O-Oh God, that Pokemon...While its a hell of a lot smaller like the size of a Charmander, it still the same kind of Pokemon from Halloween, right? It's the one that has attacked him and nearly ripped his head off, right? It just has its flesh and skin, but its structure is almost exactly the same, so it is the same, right? Right?

Suddenly, Souji isn't too sure if he feels all that safe anymore and to make it even worse, this new Aerodactly decides that it wants a hug from its "mother". ]


Wait, hold on--!!

[ Between making a choice of either trying to make sure that a 50 pound flying dinosaur doesn't break his ribs with an accidental headbutt by catching it or holding onto his gear and prevent it from a horrible crash, he'll go with the former.

The gear falls to the ground and it turns itself off. ]



Thirty minutes later

[ The gear turns back on and hello....there is now an image of Souji and a very loving baby Aerodactly attached to his arm now like its some kind of monkey. Not really the image you will think of a fearsome looking Pokemon like that and its trainer thinks he kinda agrees, especially after one has nearly killed him.

He doesn't try to get the Pokemon off but rather speak somewhat calmly to the gear. ]


...Does this Pokemon remind anyone of those skeletal ones from Halloween, mainly the one that flew around?

It's looked something like this;

[ Souji picks up a sheet of paper with his free arm and shows it to the gear. ]



[ Hey, he has improved a bit in his drawing skills than last time and don't ask why it's in yellow... That's the only colour marker he could have found with one dinosaur attracted to his arm and preventing it from crushing him... ]


(( OOC: To those who haven't seen, yeah, Souji does have an answering machine so your character can order Pokemon without having to wait for an entry from me. You can order any time at all and there is no limit! Your character can also want to sell their eggs with him so I can update the list with their stuff!

Replies to this can either be before the thirty minutes where Souji has shown the drawing or after! Tags here will be gotten to in the morning and other tags I owe, I will try to get to them asap! ))

DREAM 010 [VIDEO]

[Today on the network, there is a very confusing entry that has been posted for everyone to see. Well, not that confusing but certainly something that someone normally will not record and yes, this is rated G.

First of all, this angle of the camera is rather quite low, almost like a Pokemon holding it which is correct! Welcome to the Buneary TV, live with a footage of its trainer's room! Whose room might this be? None other than Souji Seta, of course!

Ah, the joys of fiddling around with a trainer's Pokegear. Things can get quite boring when stuck inside all day due to the rain. So, let's see what's recording!

The camera turns onto Souji just sitting in a chair and facing the dresser's mirror with one of the most raggedy shirt you can ever find. Not as in it is filled with holes but you can tell that it's pretty worn out. It's stretched, the once dark grey colour is now just a faded light grey, and there's a thread or two loose sticking out from his sleeves or his collar. It's definitely not a shirt to keep around, so perfect for today's wonderful experiment!

Now, what is that experiment exactly?

Well, the camera turns and right behind him is the one and only [livejournal.com profile] usedgrowl ! That one purple haired girl that Souji has seem to be hanging out with now and then. Now, what is she doing here in Souji's room? Well, in one hand is a bottle of black hair dye and the other which is spreading said dye all over this leader's beautiful grey hair.

Needless to say, Souji doesn't seem too excited about this...]


Remind me why we're not going to the salon for this?


I told you, that place is way too expensive!


[Kagami's too Asian to actually pay those hair salons just for some hair dye. Do-it-yourself hair dye is about P1000 while getting it actually done by a professional is five times that price. Heck no, who on Earth will be willing to pay that much?

She just continues spreading the hair dye all over his scalp, slowly turning his hair into a common black colour. She doesn't seem to be minding this whole dyeing process as much.]


Isn't it best to leave it to the people who know how to do this?


I know what I'm doing! I read the instructions!


[Said instructions are crumpled and lying somewhere over on Souji's bed....

Souji just sighs and doesn't say anything much after. He just sits and stares at himself in the reflection while Kagami continues putting on the dye without a care in the world....until a few minutes later.]


Wait...are we suppose to keep this stuff off your skin?


[She suddenly stops applying the hair dye and spreading it around. The two of them freezes and an awkward silence takes over them. The only sound that can be heard is the breathing of the Buneary recording all of this right now.]

...

...

...I can feel the dye dripping down the back of my neck.


[Cue lots of flailing around now from both Kagami's and Souji's side. Mainly her trying to wipe it all off a towel and him telling her to slow down so he doesn't get any carpet burns. The camera moves up and down as the Buneary jumps around in excitement over this.]

Buneary! Buneary!!


[Kagami's and Souji's heads do a whiplash towards the camera with huge surprised looks.]

H-Hey, turn that off!

[A few seconds later, the Pokegear is in Kagami's hands and the video feed turns off.]


(( OOC: Kagami has been written into this join post with the permission of her mun, Maru! Kagami will also be tagging others in this post for double CR chances! \o\ The hair dye is also semi-permanent so it should only last for about two weeks! ))

DREAM 005 [VIDEO/ACTION IN ICE PATH]

[It's been almost a week since everyone has woken up from this strange three-day sleep. Everyone has also sent in their panic struck messages all over the network, asking where on Earth they are, how is this happening, where are their friends are. There have been just swarms of them. Of course, other messages of relief have been sent back and in not time, everything has gone back the usual everyday entries and almost normal lives.

But hey, not everyone has sent in their messages to reassure that they are safe. Well, not Souji at least.

Friends of Souji might have noticed that he isn't in Violet City anymore. Just like many others, it isn't very hard to figure out that he probably has been transported to another area. After all, it's not like he just leaves his room without a trace all of a sudden, and with the large numbers of people moving around, it's a safe conclusion to say he too has been dragged around. However, if that's the case, why hasn't he been responding to anyone's messages?

He hasn't kept in contact with anyone. Not a single reply or even a little text message. It's unsettling to say the least when something like that happens, but what is the reason for this? Well, if one will take a look through a list of signals around, his is still around so that means he is still in Johto. Where in Johto, of course that will not say, but that rules out one possible reason why he hasn't been responding. Well, instead of sitting here and pondering it all, long story short-- his Pokegear is half-broken. Yeah...how anti-climatic, huh?

Why is his Pokegear broken? Well, the location plays a huge factor why. A hundred yen-- well, a hundred Pokedollars for the correct answer on the first guess. He is in a place with lots of ice, it's ridiculously cold, it's pretty much a maze, and there are Jynxes everywhere that will jump on anyone or anything every minute.

If the first guess is Ice Path, then that is correct.

Of all the places that Souji just has been transported to, it just has to be Ice Path. It is the coldest place in Johto, asides from Mt Silver. Nope, not beautiful Ecruteak City or the by the crystal clear waters of Olivine City. Nope, none of those. He is stuck with an ice cave and by God does it suck. He can't walk around for three minutes without slipping and falling, hence the half-broken Pokegear. It's a miracle that he can still use it properly.

The screen is smudged and cracked at the corners. It really has gone through more than just a few falls, but at least it is somewhat clear enough to see both Souji and his surroundings. The leader seems to be sitting down on a nice pat of dirt and leaning against a wall, away from the ice. From this angle of the leader, it also seems as if he has placed the gear on the ground to record instead of holding it in his hands. Well, guess he can't really hold anything in his hands if he's using one to cover his right eye and the other resting on his knee.

Wait, why is is he covering his eye? And what's up with the roughed up look? It may be somewhat hard to tell with the angle and half-broken screen, but he does look like the aftermath of a fight, not from slipping and falling.

Well, thanks to this encounter with his Shadow, he's kinda injured right now. Well, not kinda. He is injured. Only figures that his Shadow knows how to pack a punch-- literally, and the jerk thought only faces are good punching bags, giving him a black eye in the process. Not to mention all the other bruises from being tossed around and the rough ice not treating him too kindly, though at the very least the Shadow didn't transform on him. It just has had a huge fist fight with him. But really, that hasn't been his main concern when he met it for he has been more focused on what it has been saying.

And there is reason number two as to why he hasn't contacted anyone. Even if everything comes as such a blur and a mess, he can still clearly hear his Shadow's taunts:

"Did you think you were special?"

"You're left out in the cold."

"You don't know anything about yourself."

Of course, he isn't quite sure if this has been all a dream or not-- facing his Shadow, that is. Everything is just a blur and for all he knows, it could have just been a crazy Jynx that has taken his refusal a little too close to the heart and beaten the living crap out of him; not like he'll ever tell. But that doesn't quite explain how he has ended up in Ice Path or why on Earth his wounds matches with the ones he's given in his dreams of it.

Either way, dream or not, he just has needed some time alone. Even if it does mean he'll have to stay inside a freezing cave for a bit. He just needs to go over what it has said-- consider it. All those other things it has said. Those aren't true, are they? But...a Shadow is the the other side of one? The one that holds all the secrets and hidden feelings of someone? When that Shadow is defeated and when it is accepted, it becomes a person's strength-- a Persona. However, there has always been one thing that has bothered him for so long. If a Persona is being of oneself, then what does it mean if someone can change theirs by will?

Does that mean he changes his personality to best suit others? Is that why he's so good at listening to other people's concerns? Everyone has been always so depending on him and he never really has had the chance to spill his own concerns out, but did that mean he didn't want to hear them? He didn't hold it against them. He is Leader after all and that has always been fine by him, but up until now, he hasn't been quite sure.

"Senpai, I need to talk."

"Partner, you free? I want to get some things off my chest."

"Hey Souji, listen to me for sec."

"Sensei, can you comfort a bear?"
 
It has just all been one question after another since he has woken up and he just has needed some time to himself. But even after nearly spending a week alone, he hasn't been able to really pull himself together. Yes, he does feel better, both physical and mentally, but it is still something lingering in the back of his mind. So, after moping around, he has figured that maybe he should try and spend the rest day on trying to figure out how to get his broken gear working. It is better than trying to slipping on the ice some more. He has had enough of that this morning and he thinks he should at least make others know that he's still alive. When has been the last time he has contacted anyone?

Without removing his hand from his eye or his lap, he takes a deep breath and exhales once, watching the white smokes dancing around. He takes another breath before actual speaking this time;]

Hey...

[What should he say?]

It's been a while.  Sorry about not being able to contact anyone. My gear is pretty broken right now.

[He leaves out how he has been moping around out. It isn't that hard to tell though ,but at least he's trying.]

Hope everyone got thrown somewhere better than a cave full of ice. It can get pretty slippery here. Probably fell more than enough for a lifetime. I'm sore all over.

[He puts on a small smile, just to prove that he's alright-- just prove that not everything is downhill and that he hasn't been completely down.]

Can anyone fill me in the gaps of what has happened so far? I'll greatly appreciate it.

And...

[He thinks about this for a few seconds. Should he ask? Well, no harm...]

Has anyone been having strange dreams for the past while? Stuff you wouldn't normally dream about?

[Things like Kool-Aid mans, zombie dogs, Mystery Food X, unicorns, or Shadows. Stuff like that. Just anything out of the ordinary to tell him that he isn't the only one having these dreams and he's not going through another craze because the last thing he needs is Igor busting in.]

Thanks.

[And reaching for his Pokegear with his left hand, he turns off the feed.]

Dream 003 [ACCIDENTAL VIDEO/ACTION IN ROUTE 31]

[The video feed started to a very strange angle of Souji, grabbing him from a low 45 degree angle. It would only take you a few seconds or a few minutes to find out that this is an accidental recording and from the inside of Souji's duffle bag, just happening to be recording him from open gap he forgot to zip up.

He's is shown to be traveling alone right now for what seems to be Route 31, just walking past trees after trees. Where were his friends, Teddie, Yosuke, and Nanako right now? Somewhere behind him. He had volunteered to head on ahead and take a short look around. This situation they were in was not a good one and there was more than just a gut feeling. There were signs just about everywhere.

The strange weather was the first one. He experienced his fair share of unnatural weather back home and he has been feeling uneasy about the same temperature and clouds that precessed for almost two weeks now. He had only hoped that it might go away after a while, but then the music changed. That was the second that  came, replacing that chippy happy he listened to every day while he was here. And now, everything didn't look the same anymore.

He reached into his breast pocket of his dress shirt and pulled out a familiar pair of glasses, the very same ones he wore in back in Inaba. He still kept it after all this time, even for the months after they placed the lid on the murder investigations. He just couldn't bare to throw it away for it served as a reminder of what they had all gone through. It always did give him almost a sense of safety, so he slipped on his glasses. It neither improved or decreased his sight, so he kept them on and looked around.

Everything was now pixelized, something straight out of a horribly created program. It wasn't surprising, they were in a video game, right? But was everything just this disfigured mess of  graphics, as if the whole programming around him went terribly wrong. It was almost like that Void Quest place all over again and that wasn't pleasant at all, but this place was much worse than Void Quest. This place just reeked of --]


RING RING

[Jesus! That just made him jump out of his skin! What the hell was that sound? Wait...That was his Pokegear, right?

He reached down into his duffle bag and pulled out the Pokegear. The video feed was still recording as he took no notice, or if he did, he didn't stop it. He opened the new message and immediately a familiar voice rang through, loud enough for those watching this feed to hear;]

"Hey there! It's J-J-Jo-eeeeeeeeeeeee-y-y. Did yo-oooooooooo-- yooooooou k-kkkknow?  My Ratatta is the top percenta-- My Ratatta is the top precenta-ta-ta-ta--....My Ratatta is the the top percentage of Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraarraaaaa--"

[He hangs up on the kid. Dammit, not even the people here are normal. It's was the whole place was breaking down or something and it really isn't making him feel any better about the whole thing. Just when was this all going to end?

He tossed the Pokegear back into his duffle bag, and once again it recorded the owner of it at a strange angle. He really doesn't seem to know it was on, probably from how much he was starting to worry about this situation. But he gotta stay calm like always. Always take one step at a time, and the first step here was that he should probably head back to the others now. He was gone out here for a while now, possibly fifteen minutes or more? He shouldn't keep them waiting any longer.

He turned around and began to head back into the direction he came from. They should be around here, right? But why couldn't he see anyone? Don't say they ran off somewhere while he was gone. Since his Pokemon wouldn't even come out of their balls, the last thing he needed was to be alone while everything wasn't going their ways. He pushed up his glasses and looked around.]


Nanako...! Teddie...! Yosuke...! 

[If they were close, they should be able to hear him. If not, just where on Earth did they run off to? It would be bad if they were all split up, especially Nanako.

A sudden gust of wind blew in from behind him, he turned around and--]





[Holy shit!! What the hell is that?! And what is it screaming?!

Souji took a few steps back from that- that thing as it floats in front of him, staring at him with those hollow sockets where flesh might have been before. Just what on Earth was this thing? It's huge, almost as big as the Shadows he once had to battle, maybe even bigger! And it keeps on repeating that
cry over and over again. It screams it into his ears, its choppy cries mixing in with the loud music and starting to give him a cold chill down his spine. Dammit, that thing is just looming over him! How the hell is he supposed to battle that if none of his Pokemon came out of their Pokeballs?

The creature suddenly flies backward and starts charging at him, with a large cry.]


Shit--! 

[The bag fell off his shoulder as he brought up his arms to shield himself and attempted to dodge it. The feed finally shuts down and the last thing you could hear from it is that cry of "NIII-RRRD NII-RRRRRRD" over and over...]


(( OOC: Souji does manage to get away from the Missingno, sooner or later. Group members/people in Route 31 can intervene~ \o\  And would you believe me if I said that I actually typed out this whole entry putting that Nidoran cry along with the reverse!Lavender music on loop until I finished this at 2 in the morning?  I think I've gone mad myself. Tags will be done in the morning after I get some shut eye and AWAY FROM THIS MUSIC. And yes, I know I typed this like prose but in action style. ffffff I am horrible at this ))

Dream 002 [VIDEO/ACTION IN ROUTE 30]

[A video feed starts with a camera shaking around for a few seconds. On the screen, all you see at first is some kind of small tree, filled with berries. It's kinda hard to tell what kind they are because in just a few seconds, the camera pans around to our silver-haired leader, Souji Seta. He seems to be holding some kind of peach-shaped berry-- just like those on the tree --in one of his hands, tossing it up and down a few times. For those further knowledgeable about these strange fruits, it seems like a Pecha Berry; good for curing poison on Pokemon, not good for humans. It seems like Souji doesn't know that though.]

...I found a few of these fruits around, so I picked one. They remind me of the peaches back at home.

[He then nods his head towards his Skarmory behind him, who just seems to swallowing the berries all down. Just because it can cure an ailment, it didn't mean it couldn't eat it just for the heck of it. Man, these fruits are delicious. Munch Munch Munch...]

Izanagi seems to like them, so I'm curious if they'll taste like the peaches back at home...

[Might as well give it a try, right? After all, what is there to lose? It couldn't be much worse than the time he drank that red miso soup that actually turned white...right? If this fruit was edible, that would really help in their travels too. It's not like he has anything important to lose. Just his life and intestines. He can deal with that.

He brings the fruit up to his mouth and takes a large bite out of it. It's just like a suspense movie where you're just wondering what would happen. For those who know the side effects of the Pecha fruit, you'll just be waiting in dread for it. For those who don't know the side effects, it should be fine...right? But...it looks like Souji's eyes are staring to water now.

His tongue is burning from just one bite of that berry, a very, very strong taste and spiciness washing over it. This is just as bad as Rise's overdoses on the chili pepper, actually, probably worse. His throat is starting to swell up and his breathing becomes irregular and ragged. It looks like he's having troubles breathing. Oh God, why has he eaten that berry? This was worse than anything he ate before, and that's including science projects and Mystery Food X.

Souji looks straight into the camera and just wheezes:]


...Bad ide--wheeze--a...don't..heez...don't eat the be--wheeze-rries...

[Oh good Ho-Oh, just give him a few minutes. The side effects should run off in ten minutes, but oh Izanagi, why did he eat that? It looks like curiosity did kill that cat or is about to. Oh God, it's hard to breath. How is he going to stick up with this for ten minutes? Oh sweet Susano-O, whyyyyyyyy]

Dream 001 [VIDEO/ACTION IN NEW BARK TOWN]

[The video feed starts off with a really shaky start. The only sound you hear at first is that horrible muffling sound as fingers keep trailing over the mic. It’s clear that the owner has almost no idea what he’s doing. It finally focuses onto a young man with silver hair. He seems pretty calm for someone who just woke up in Johto, but still pretty confused.]

I think I got it on...This looks like one of Yosuke’s handheld game consoles, though I don’t remember a camera on it...

[He ponders to himself for a bit before shrugging, looking towards the camera.]


If this video is going out, does anyone know where I am? It doesn’t look like Inaba or the city...

I’m pretty used to this stuff and I wouldn’t surprised if this was a dream. Not like I didn’t have weird dreams just like this before, but the “mom” thing is new, and that I'm wearing my Inaba school uniform. I probably just fell asleep on the train.


[He shrugs once again, but keeps his small smile on. Weird dreams; he had them before. This wasn’t any worse than when Igor called him in his sleep. This dream was pretty mild compared to the flaming luchadors and the Velvet room, so whatever. Still kinda weird he has his uniform on. He came from the train where he was wearing normal clothes, right? Then what's up with the uni?]

But if anyone can tell me what’s going on, I’ll really appreciate it. Even if it's a dream, I would like to see if I can find any familiar faces...

Thank you in advance.


[And with that the feed ends. He's pretty relaxed about all this. I mean, c'mon, crazy dreams are just crazy dreams. Move along folks. Nothing to see here.]
