DREAM 021 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD]

[ Good afternoon, Johto! How is that Christmas spirit going on? Going shopping for the perfect gifts, caroling, setting up a tree, these are staples of a Western Christmas. Well, Souji has been here for over a year and he has noticed that most people celebrate the holiday that way, so heck, he might as well try spending it like that too. He has tried it last year in Johto and it has been quite fun. Besides, a certain somebody has been trying to make him put more spirit into it and "fully celebrate" it. So, guess who is putting up Christmas lights on the Breeding Centre and has dragged his partner with it? ]

[ The camera spins from the dirt road to a [livejournal.com profile] usedkunai, dressed all warmly and holding a line of lights out towards Souji all the way up on a ladder. The Riolu points it up to Souji who takes notice of it. ]


Yosuke, the camera. [ He points down at the gear which then swings down to Yosuke. ]

O-oh, it's on? [ He looks at the Riolu, who shakes the camera as he nods. ] Alright, well-- A little more warning would have been nice, but...

[ Yosuke grins, putting on his best salesman act. Don't worry, he's totally a pro at this. ] Come one, come all to the Breeding Centre's Merry Holiday Christmas Sale! All eggs will be buy one, get one free until Christmas. We'll also do gift wrapping, and same day delivery, just like always!

This special is a limited-time offer, so make sure you get the deal while it's hot!
[ He winks at the camera. What a ham. He definitely sounds like Crazy Eddie. Please roll your eyes at him any time now. Once he finishes his spiel, the Riolu makes an affirmative sound, implying that he's done with the video. Spoiler: It's still on. ]

Well, that worked well enough, I guess. Maybe a little over the top, but we did kind of wait a while to actually do somethin-- Hey, are you ready for the next string of lights yet? [ Yosuke's brain-to-mouth filter is currently set to off, just happily blabbering his stream of consciousness. ]

[ Souji gives a small nod and outstretches a single hand, the other gripping the ladder. ] Yeah, pass them up. I should be able to cover this side of the centre with one more line.

[ Yosuke bends down to pick up a new line from the box, putting the whole thing in his arms. However, the problem with having an armful of things and having elbows stick out around a ladder is just asking for disaster, and as expected, there's one as he stands back up, he accidentally bumps the ladder just hard enough to give it a shake. ]

Hey-- whoa, whoa, ack!!

[ And without any surprise, Souji falls right off that ladder. Yosuke, being right in the path of damage lets out a pretty loud: ]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!

[ He drops the lights, making an attempt to either catch Souji or get the hell out of the way... which one it is, Yosuke doesn't know, because there's not exactly much time for him to think. As this happens, the Riolu tries to catch its trainer by dropping the gear, shutting it off. ]

(( ooc: both Souji and Yosuke will be replying to this mess of a post! For action tags, they will be set after the two of them get off of each other and stand. ))

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 018 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD]

[ On this fine entry on this fine day is a fine view from a fine Pokegear that is no longer destroyed! That's right, Souji Seta has gotten himself a new gear since his last one has been nearly broken beyond repair. There's no more cracked screens, no more muffled audio, no more awkward texting, it's all gone! This gear is good as new and its owner looks a lot better than his entry a while back.

There's more colour to his face, he doesn't look like he'll fall over any minute, the bags under his eyes looks lighter, he just looks a lot better overall. He has been getting more rest since he has gotten back in Goldenrod. It's still not enough, but a lot more than he has been getting originally at the breeding centre. However, today, he seems rather... unsure...

He's looking off screen and it seems like he's feeling uncomfortable about something, which is normally not like his usual calm self. He shifts weights onto one foot from the other and finds his hands busy either at the centre's front desk, fingers rubbing against the edge, or playing with the belt loops of his pants.

He takes a deep breath and finally looks at the Pokegear. He clears his throat and begins to speak; ]


Hey... [ He sounds... really unsure.. ] Are...

[ A long pause. Whatever he must be asking must be really important or serious since he's hesitating like this. WHAT COULD IT BE? MAYBE IT'S A TOP SECRET DISCOVERY OF A NEW POKEMON SPECIES OR-- ]

Are...you a Pikachu because you're shockingly beautiful...

[ --or just a Pokemon pick-up line directed to everyone in Johto...

Guess which poor sap lost a bet and is forced to use Pokemon pick-up lines to everyone this whole day, including the people that reply to this entry...? ]

DREAM 016 [VIDEO/ACTION IN ICE PATH]

[ Upon entry from a number that has been missing from the entire network- both in new entries or replying to other entries -there is nothing but darkness. At first, it might seem like it's an audio, but the screen of the gear is completely black instead it clearly says that it's a video feed. So, perhaps the screen is covered or something. At least the audio is still loud and clear. As proven so, there seems to be a strange tapping sound- the sound of something sharp tapping on a window or glass. This sound continues for another few minutes before finally, the video feed kicks in.

Barely any light shines through the gear and the whole image is grainy, almost as watching a television with the worst reception ever-- well, not that bad, but it's still almost painful just looking at this. The cause of this might possibly have to do with the cracks seen on the screen and that the source of the pecking sound earlier is from a large Skarmory looming over it.

It moves off to the side and the camera on the ground captures the image of someone lying on the ground, facing away with their back's turned. Who might it be, on their sides on this frost-covered floor? Place the clues together:

The number registered to this gear, one Skarmory, a familiar mop of grey hair, perhaps even remembering what clothes this person has been wearing on the day he has disappeared?

Well, if still nothing adds up, the Steel-type Pokemon hops over to its trainer (who looks rather quite dead, just lying there, motionless) and nudges him with its beak. Finally, the person moves a bit and mumbles; ]


Izanagi, not right now...

[ How familiar is that voice? Well, it might not be too easy to tell since it sounds pretty groggy and rather terrible. From looking at the settings, as best one can from a broken screen and this terrible angle, frost seems to cover everything from the walls to the floors. Perhaps even an icicle or two can be seen on screen, but even without those, it will be easy to come to the conclusion that this location is somewhere cold; somewhere called the Ice Path.

The Skarmory lets out a small cry and nudges its trainer once again, in which he actually pushes himself upward a bit with a sigh. ]


What is it, Izanag--

[ And then, Souji Seta notices the Pokegear and the little light to indicate recording is turned on. He stares at it for a second before sitting up properly and reaching over to the gear. He holds it in his hands, cradling it a bit. ]

Thought it was completely broken. Guess it's still something.

[ He coughs a few times, not really bothering to cover his mouth with his sleeve. Feeling just a bit too tired to do anything but just lie around; just like he has done for the past few hours, nodding off a bit, but mainly thinking. Thinking about how being trapped here in the Ice Path is exactly the same as that one time so many months ago. Thinking on how he has been having those strange dreams whenever he has fallen asleep for just an hour. Thinking on how everything about his situation has seemed so much the same, except that this time, he doesn't seem as injured as he does seem sick.

Well, probably getting so little sleep then being thrown into an ice cave didn't help. The way he looks and his raspy voice does seem to indicate it. ]


Souji Seta here. Sorry about disappearing for a while... I'm-- [ --having difficulties with my feelings and conflicting thoughts with everything while my self esteem has taken a hit again-- ] --lost in the Ice Path again.

Not too sure how long it'll take me to get out here. [ 'Not even too sure I've in here between just sitting around and having terrible sleeping patterns'. ] I'll find an exit out soon. [ 'Or sooner or later' ]

[ There's a pause, as if Souji isn't too sure what to say now. Maybe he's just deciding on what to say, how to word it, or maybe he's just not feeling well enough to process things as quickly as usual. ] Has... Has anyone who has been having these dreams have... people "revisit" them? [ He isn't too sure how to properly word it right now, not especially in his condition. ]

[ He lowers the gear, placing his hands in his lap. He then gives a small smile as if everything is alright. ]


Thanks. See you soon.

[ And the feed shuts off! ]


(( ooc: TAGS WILL BE HELD OFF UNTIL... TOMORROW OR LATER SINCE I'M REALLY TIRED. Tags for Layton's entry, I'm apologize, but I'll get to them too with Souji's later! Also, I will still be spreading my love over at that ooc entry I have made and later the love meme! Sorry bros, I'm just... as tired as Souji right now. 8( I think there's a bug going around in my house-- BUT YEAH HAVE AT IT ))

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. ]

--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 012 [VIDEO/ACTION IN GOLDENROD] - fastfowarded to friday

[ So, guys... Souji has finally done it. He has actually gone out and signed the papers, spoke to the officials, paid out the cash, all that. He hasn't been kidding when he has said he's been thinking about this plan-- well, maybe just a bit but he still has gone out and done it!

That's right, from this day on, Souji Seta is now the proud owner of a Pokemon Breeding Centre.

In a fine house near the entrance of Goldenrod is a centre for trainers or breeders who want to become new owners of different eggs! They can be the eggs that Souji is breeding or if they want to breed their own Pokemon, he's more than willing for them to lend out his Ditto. Heck, maybe someone might want to help him run this centre with him. Some partners will be good for this because that will mean more Pokemon and more Pokemon means more customer, right? Right. Well, it's a good thing he hasn't decided to make a sign or something for this place yet. It might not have been a great idea for him to make a sign like "SOUJI'S EGGS" if he is going to have business partners.

But enough about that, here's some eggs on screen!




Doesn't this look familiar? Souji has been doing this often, so it should be to some people!

The screen turns to face Souji who is behind a counter. He seems pretty relaxed and is dressed in normal wear despite now somewhat being on the job now. Guess this is why it's better to have one's own business.

He takes a sip out of his cup of coffee before speaking; ]


Signed some papers and rented the place for about a month so I guess I now have a breeding centre. It's right by the entrance of Goldenrod if you want to find it. Haven't really thought of a name for the place yet, so suggestions will be nice.

But anyway, I'll be selling eggs for a while now and breeding Pokemon for others if they want. Got a Ditto here that's pretty... [ A pause... How does he describe that his Ditto is a whore... ] ...willing to help out. [ Yeah, that's a good way of putting it. ]

Got a bunch of eggs right now too if anyone wants them. I'll attach a text of what I have and their prices to this. I can deliver the eggs to different cities and locations free of charge. You can buy as many as you want. I don't mind haggling for prices either.

[ Souji is super chill with this stuff. Don't have enough money? He'll give the egg to you for half price or even free depending on what Pokemon it is. ]

Some people have been interested in helping me run this centre when I've asked, so I don't mind running the business with others. I think it'll be easier that way too, so give me a heads-up if you want to.

Thanks-- [ Oh snap, wait! He has almost forgot something. He reaches over to the corner of the counter and picks up one of his business cards. He flips it over to show the gear. ] Do any of you know a "Yu Narukami" around here? I think the printing company has given me the wrong set of cards.

[ He shows the card to the screen and surely enough, there's the name Yu Narukami printed where Souji Seta should be. Oh well and the feed turns off! ]

HUGE list of Pokemon + low prices behind here! )


(( OOC: Here is Souji's egg post now! All of those who have reserved an egg can look over here. There are still a few slots open for some Pokemon if you want to claim one! No limits on Pokemon for people but just let me know that you want to take a slot! Anyone that wants to work a business of this breeding centre, let me know too!

Breeding centre is mod-approved so Souji is going to make these centres everywhere like a loser

ETA: Souji now has an automatic breeding centre answering machine so you may contact him whenever for an egg without waiting for an entry from me! ))

DREAM 011 [TEXT]

[From a very familiar ID, a simple text message comes instead of an usual video feed. Why? Well, that is a ~*SECRET*~ but it involves riding on a Charizard right now, attacking any bugs, and being outside someone's window...

...Very long story...]


Has anyone thought of starting a breeding centre or something?

Or being both a trainer or a breeder?


[For those who might know Souji, they can probably figure out why he's asking. After giving out at least a hundred eggs out to people, he's thinking about being at least a part-time breeder so he can at least somewhat expect the eggs to give away. Opening a breeding centre might be good too, something like that daycare but just for...well, breeding.

What else is he going to do with this Ditto? Besides, a lot of people seem interested in getting Pokemon eggs.]

If you hear something tapping your window again, open it up. You should hear it soon.

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 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 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.]
