Jade turned at the sound of a Pokemon's voice to see the Ninetales she'd met on the boat--Spirit, was her name? May wasn't too far behind her. On the one hand, Jade had been sort of been hoping to avoid running into anyone else up here. She wanted an excuse to not think about the...

<><><> Jade kicked a few rocks down the slope as she made her way up the trails of Mt. Moxie, keeping her eyes out for... well, she wasn't sure what, really. No one had gone missing around here, and it wouldn't really make sense for any of the kidnapped trainers to have been taken here...

Jade blanched. “I… yeah?” Something about the dragon’s steely gaze made her straighten. “We did—we are. We’re still fighting.” She’d already resolved to never run away again. Not while the people closest to her were risking their lives. Nine had returned to where Jade and Laura were...

"Oh, uh..." Jade felt the instinctive discomfort rise in her chest, the urge to brush it off, or make it sound like no big deal, or change the subject, the way she did when people occasionally picked up on her habits. But this was one of the few people outside her normal friend circle who'd...

Oh, so it wasn't as different as the situation with the Rockets as she'd thought. First time facing an unknown enemy for both of them, then. "I'm not used to not knowing where to look. There was never any question of that, it was just a matter of not getting caught," Jade replied, rubbing her...

Jade nodded as she followed Laura toward the outdoor lobby. Right, yeah, that made sense. It wasn't like there was anywhere else to get supplies from while everyone was stuck on this island. Unless the culprit had ties to Legendaries. Then it was anything goes. Nine had glanced up at the...

Jade started a bit at the thought-speak. Now that was rare for a non-psychic. "Ah, you'd be surprised," she said with a small chuckle. Not that she really felt like getting into spending so much time around the Pokemon that a lot of people thought of as gods. She turned her attention back to...

Jade waved back. "Uh, not yet. I haven't actually started searching yet," she admitted sheepishly. The idea of investigating alone was vaguely uncomfortable, but maybe that was just her old Rebellion training at play. Best to stay in mission groups. At Laura's side was a massive Noivern...

<><><><><> Alright, so... investigating. Jade really didn't have the first clue on where to begin with investigating. None of her experience back home was relevant here. Not when her time on the Rebellion revolved around a known enemy with a known location. Finding clues was so much easier...

Jade smiled faintly. Hopefully things would work out for him back home. She glanced at her watch. It was getting later in the afternoon, and she still hadn't managed to find anything important to the disappearances.. "I should probably head back to town, but it was nice talking with you,"...

Oh geez. Note to self, this kid was in real bad shape; seemed like just about anything got him scared out of his wits. "It's okay, no one's saying you have to hide yourself. He just thought maybe you'd want to," Jade said quickly, throwing a glance at Nine. He gave her an indifferent stare...

Jade rubbed the back of her head. "I guess I can't know why without any context, but like... I just met you. It wouldn't really make any sense." Maybe for a Pokemon with a lot of anti-human sentiment, sure. But why would a human be mad at him for... being human? Nine's birdlike stare was...

“I mean…” Jade struggled to find the right word. “Of course there’s stories about it, but it’s not something that could actually happen, right? It’s like, something out of a sci-fi or a fantasy or…” She trailed off. “Or like what happened to all of us,” she conceded with a sigh. “Mad at...

Jade nodded sympathetically. "Yeah, I... feel like I probably wouldn't like being in the spotlight." A lot of people were dying to be champion, but it wasn't for her. "I'm glad that there's good things about it, though." Jade blinked at Gen, utterly perplexed. "'Used to be human'? What...

Jade glanced at Wallace. "I... know what it's like to end up in a life that you didn't expect," she admitted, shuffling her foot in the damp earth. "Do you... like being champion?" Jade stared at the Oshawott. "That's so weird..." she muttered. "If someone had taken you away, why would they...

"'Just woke up there'?" Jade echoed blankly. "You mean like... kidnapped?" He was a Pokemon that could speak human, and that wasn't normal even in his world. Maybe some shady people had taken an interest in that. But then how would he have gotten free?

Jade relaxed slightly. "Ohh, okay." Yeah, that made sense. Flying all the way back to Johto from Hoenn sounded like a real pain. And taking a ferry that far was pretty expensive. "So I guess you... weren't Coleane's starter then, if you're from Johto?" Jade asked, puzzled. There went her...

Jade blinked at him. "Whoa, what? You, uh... you definitely don't need to battle if you don't want to, you know that right?" Was he... captured without his consent? But that would go against the pact, and... Coleane sure didn't seem like the kind of trainer who'd hold a Pokemon against their...

Jade chuckled weakly. "Well, I guess my team's pretty special. I wouldn't have gotten anywhere without them, really." Jade paused, unsure how to take that. She'd been a bit exasperated at Nine for being insensitive when they first met Gen, but if compliments also made him uncomfortable, she...

Jade tilted her head at the Oshawott. "Well, you can speak human--I think that makes you pretty special, you and Coleane both. But I guess she's aiming to be a champion, and she's a Pokémon who's a trainer, so it's not hard to see why she'd be invited here." A Pokemon with a surname was sort of...
