[@Rune_Alchemist] Ralia teleported up to Meganium’s head, and the green creature let her be. That was all totally fine. … Until Ralia grabbed one of those antennas and yanked. Now, about those antennas… they’re actually a Meganium’s stamen, which it uses to spread spores, the tips of their giant flowers, with anthers on top, used for making more flowers. Basically, Ralia just yanked his [i]*cough*[/i] [color=b8d68d]‘MEGANI-!?’[/color] Meganium shook, throwing violently with his head as Ralia desperately teleported off. Good thing she did that, because a cloud of purple Poison Powder spread into the atmosphere from the Herb Pokémon, which was getting itself up on its feet with an angered expression, eyes peering partly closed. A few pink petals gathered around him, a hint that Meganium was preparing for a Petal Dance…! Except the target had teleported away. Meganium calmed down, letting the petals of Petal Dance settle while the Poison Powder scattered around harmlessly. If he could see Ralia he’d be glaring warningly towards her, otherwise it was just in general at everything, before slowly turning to wander in the direction Chikorita went off in, paying Ralia no further mind. She would certainly not be welcome on Meganium’s back anymore, though. Meanwhile. Claire minded her safety at least somewhat as she ran through the forest, avoiding Vileplume petals and glaring Roserades on the way, before Chikorita arrived at a little groove where the trees opened up, letting in some light. [hider=A peaceful place][center][url=https://i.imgur.com/E4Otnri.png][img]https://i.imgur.com/E4Otnril.png [/img][/url][/center][/hider] Chikorita ran, and in this open area Claire was faster. The small green animal ran around the [i]moss rock[/i] that stood here for no apparent reason, perhaps for a lap around it or so. Eventually, through either just insistently following or by changing tactics seeing how Chikorita was now just running around the rock, Claire eventually caught up to the little grass-type Pokémon. [color=ccdba7]‘Chiko~!’[/color] Chikorita called out happily as Claire caught up to it, looking pretty happy despite everything. Now, regardless of what Claire was going to do next now that she caught up with the little mischief maker… Something floated uncomfortable close to her head at the edge of her vision. It was decently large and brightly coloured. If we assume she did what any normal human would at this point and turned her head to look at what it was… [center]Claire blanked out.[/center] Everything became bright white and she stopped feeling connected to her body. She didn’t need to breathe, she couldn’t feel heat or cold, yet everything somehow felt comforting. She’d be forgiven for thinking she had fallen unconscious, except someone unconscious surely wouldn’t have been able to think as clearly as she could right now, not to mention everything was bright, with a pinch of yellow, not entirely black or unclear as unconsciousness would have been. An image appeared within her mind, branded into her memory. A girl, slightly older than Claire. Her eyes were closed and her hair flowing blue, long and beautiful around her head, unconscious underwater. She was contained within a large container of water within an unknown building, sealed behind metal doors and artificial lights. Instruments were connected to the container, gathering some form of data to screens that Claire could impossibly read from here. Around the container and the doors stood guards, numerous masked men dressed entirely in white with numerous Pokéballs at their belts, ready for any amount of trouble. They looked serious. Along with this mysterious image of this girl in a container of water, a question appeared in her memory. It was associated with the picture, its intention loud and clear, if a little short on details.
