The ship had stopped shaking, but that wasn't enough to put Hail at ease.

He fiddled with his keystone necklace for a moment, lost in thought. Much as he would have liked to believe that it was just a freak accident, he knew better than that. His instincts told him there was more to it. It was almost as if someone was trying to–

He was drawn from his thoughts when the Captain's voice echoed over the speakers.

[colour=green]"Attention passengers, this is your captain speaking. For your safety, please gather in the main stadium - again, for your safety, please gather in the main stadium."[/colour]

Then an automated message started playing.

[colour=green]"Emergency broadcast, passengers are required to prepare for evacuation."[/colour]

To top it all off, the holographic projectors started going all sorts of crazy, with various projections of Pokémon appearing throughout the room. It didn't seem like an intentional display. At least, not one intentionally done by anyone with good [i]intentions[/i]. Heh. It didn't bother him much since he was used to worse.

[colour=lightcyan]".... Well, that's not ominous at all."[/colour]

Unfortunately, the other passengers in the Lucky Catch weren't quite as composed as he was. If the captain's frankly disconcerting message didn't startle them badly enough, the virtual Ho-oh rising from the floor in front of them certainly did the job, which only served to complicate the situation even more.

[colour=lightcyan]"Alright, Sai. Why don't you give them a hand."[/colour]

[colour=thistle][I]"Espeon!"[/I][/colour]

Sai's eyes glowed with her signature soft purple colour as she calmed the minds of the panicked passengers.

From the corner of his eye, Hail noticed an Exeggutor bringing a few fallen passengers to their feet.

It looked like someone else had a similar idea.
