Suspicious Monster Sighting

Initially, after Mark cast his spell, nothing seemed to change about the beast's behavior, as it continued to keep breathing deeply as though it slumbered. Kiba's blades appeared and all seemed to be going without a hitch. But then something in the forest snapped a twig, rather loudly in the silence, and if any of the mages looked quickly, they'd see a Vulcan trying to sneak up on the monster. The sound would immediately wake it up, the monster surging to its feet and letting out a howling roar before identifying the source of sound. The Vulcan, now caught, would rush in to pick a fight, leaving the mages with a decision to make. Now that it was awake, the odds of taking it alive were drastically reduced and the odds of them getting hurt increased. Was the effort still worth the risk?

Urgent Delivery-Rendezvous
@Remram@Sanguine Rose


Silence reigned for a long time as the caravan moved through the woods, the members of the guard sweeping their firing lanes and the mages keeping alert. Now and then an Asterin would try and get to them, see if they'd grown complacent, but it would either it would be stopped by the barrier or the guard watching that lane would gun it down in a burst of blue energy. The pattern repeated for another two hours before Nolan asked for an ETA, which the Corporal was happy to provide. {Edge of the forest should be coming up now, then it's about thirty minutes to the outpost. Aside from the odd lizard, it doesn't seem like the main swarm followed us, so the only real concern is going to be getting back to Rembrandt after the supply drop is complete.}

The girl seemed hardly phased by Ariel's questions and simply beckoned the group to follow her. "The train will be taking us to the town of Ansol, about a three hour ride. Once there, some of my family's soldiers will be waiting for me, so your part will end there. Daddy was nervous about the interim though, so he wanted to ensure any would be bad actors would be deterred." The group was escorted to what was clearly a private car meant for use by people like the girl, with seating, food, and other amenities for a relaxing trip. So far the girl was less spoiled and more confident that nothing could happen.

Unknown to the group at large, two people followed close behind, a man and woman in black clothing who sat in the car just before theirs. There was mischief and trouble in their eyes and their energy, to those who could read it, was full of ill intent.

"No audition necessary, and I've seen you tinkering with your magic, so if you'll just follow me..." Jenna lead the way to her office on the main floor, stepping into it briefly before stepping back out with a stamp in hand. "Just tell me where and keep it's color pictured clearly in your mind."

Finding the food hub wasn't too hard, especially in an entertainment district, but as Jason checked his wallet, he realized he really didn't have as much as he would have liked. Looks like a steak is out of the question for me...damn. Gonna need to step up getting some money coming in. Appraising the various eateries, he decides to try out the Junk Burger, maneuvering his way inside and getting in line to place an order for a burger and fries while listening to the students around him. Maybe someone's seen a rarer Pokemon running around...

The only sounds the three mages heard for a distance were those of the forest, birds, beasts, insects and the like going about their lives, most unaware the mages were even there. However, as the indicated clearing grew closer, the distance going from two miles, to a mile and a half and even less, the sounds eventually disappeared entirely as signs of territory marking grew more apparent, mostly in the form of large and deep gouges in the ground and larger trees. Eventually, they would reach the edge of the clearing and see a large canine like monster, red in color and currently curled up and sleeping, it's deep breathing just loud enough to barely be heard.

The Corporal seemed to be coming to the end of his argument as Nolan approached, as he was able to catch the tail end. "If you weren't going to make good on the promise of emergency artillery if the Asterin issue was greater than anticipated, then you shouldn't have fucking made it! I'll be reporting this to my captain! Over and out." He flipped off the radio and seemed to glare at the Ash mage, though it was clear that the anger wasn't at the mage so much as the situation. When he was done, the Corporal weighed in. "The artillery call is normal, as swarms of Asterin like this happen if an Alpha gets big enough and beats enough others, so the Pergrande 86th Artillery unit agreed to shell areas where such swarms are identified. It usually doesn't kill the alpha, but the damage it does to the swarm is enough to break it up and force the Alpha back to normalcy. The last time they kept that promise was ten years ago. I was trying to get a suppressive salvo so we could all move together, but they said our report was too much of an outlier to engage." He sighed in frustration, giving Ria her chance to chime in.

The other guardsmen listened to Ria's idea and once more, it was Tanson who spoke up. "It would be in poor taste for us to let you do that alone though. There's four of us and if we can get close enough, the station's snipers can help provide cover, so two of us could follow with you two, support you for the spells that take longer to cast." The corporal nodded.

"This is supposed to be a joint operation, let us do our part." The other two Guardsmen looked nervous but nodded in agreement. The lead driver leaned out and looked at the Corporal who waved him on, and soon the caravan was moving again, though not before handing the two mages earpieces for communication that was less loud. The Corporal near the lead vehicle and the other three space appropriately to cover approach vectors, leaving the two mages to fill the gaps they felt needed them.

About twenty minutes after the group reached the train station, a young girl, looking about 15 with bright red hair, sparling blue eyes, and skin just dark enough to appear she never burned in the sun arrived, escorted by a singular, though intimidating, Pergrande Soldier in infantry armor, rifle stowed, but hand resting on the pistol grip. She approached the group and appraised them all before nodding. "You all will do fine, since I'm just going home from a trip to my cousin's. Don't make any trouble for me and my daddy will make sure you all get paid handesomely."

Each indicator that the new arrival gave only made Jenna's smile grow wider, minus the comment about D'Angelo, who was merely an observer and not yet a member, though she hoped that he would be soon. "Well, in order, the two with the caravan are indeed members of my guild, though D'Angelo is not yet one. He's gone with a group to observe what should be a rather dull job and I hope he does join us when all is said and done. But as for work...that's a bit up in the air. Rembrandt is something of a...unique situation within Pergrande and even that took years to build up. So work will vary heavily. We've had a slight increase in jobs working with guards after the recent lightning monster attack, we're helping to fill some of those holes, but most of the time, we help with gathering and deliveries."

The knowledge that the Gym was closed and that its leader was late returning made Jason pause and think. Late getting back, huh? Especially when they've got another match scheduled? Hmmmm....something isn't right. He nods to the fellow and turns to head back towards the lift. "Appreciate the heads up, I'll...give some thought as to my way forwards." Admittedly, he wanted to take off into the swamp to see if the gym leader was alright, but he remembered Adriane's warnings about it. Not to mention if I go in there, who knows how long I'd be looking for that gym leader...shit... He decided that instead of rushing ahead, he'd at least get some food and take in the sights some, attempt to enjoy himself some, even with the pall of existential dread hanging over him.

"I'll do so quick as I can, Prof. For now though, I should head out." Waving to her on his way out, Jason felt his Pokedex buzz and took a look at it. "Vastille City..." He pulled up the map on his Pokedex and mapped out the route he'd end up taking to get there, humming as he did so. It's definitely along the way and I definitely need to hit more areas up, find more Pokemon and raise the team up...Also should look at challenging a gym soon myself... Nodding to himself about the route, he typed out a response.

I'll probably be able to make it in three days, but I'm gonna suggest four just in case. Got another person who might be joining me and they're still in the woods right now, but yeah, I'll see what I can do.@Sanguine Rose


"And send." With his response sent, he decided to go check out the gym here in Starbor, get a feel for if he was ready to face it.

Her reaction to the information, though it was certainly for her benefit and safety he had lied, made him feel bad about the information and as he accepted the nugget, which was really more than he thought he'd get for what he had initially thought to be ruins and not a pocket of time that one of the Gods of Time could use to enter the region. So, while there was a quiet moment, he decided to try and lift her spirits. As he spoke, he felt his Pokedex go off and he smiled at the response he got from Steph, sending a thumbs up emoji as he spoke to the Professor. "If it helps, I did find some indicator that there's a couple of other locations I can check into. I'll get back to you about those." And then she moved on, asking how Helga was, which caused the aspiring champion to chuckle.

"That Amazonian hard ass is doing just fine. She's not hugely keen on sharing much about herself, though she drilled me with a lot of questions. Over all though, she's good."

The trip from the depths of the forest all the way back up to the sunlight, or what at least made it around the massive trunks of the trees that were here, saw the aspiring champion mulling over things, the details of which kept popping into his head as he reached the village. He had travelled, so far at least, by himself, from the Professor's lab all the way to Starbor, had fought off a poacher, had outbattled a Hawlucha, avoided getting decapitated by a Scyther and now had won a battle with a flaming specter from the forest's past, met Celebi, and-Stop, stop, you're gonna send yourself into a fucking spiral. Just...shoot a message to a couple of other aspirants, see if they'd be up for meeting up and traveling together. Maybe I'll be less likely to keep dodging death by the skin of my teeth that way... As he reached the lift to the Scholar District, he pulled out his Pokedex, picked two names he didn't recognize from the people he'd interacted with and sent the following message to them, hoping they were fellow aspirants.

Hey, names Jason. I, uh, hope you're also aspiring to become a champ in the region, and if you aren't, just ignore this text. I'm just lookin' for a travel companion and potential friendly rival, someone I can sit and BS with around a campfire and have friendly battles with when the urge takes us. If you're interested, I'm in Starbor right now, but can meet ya somewhere else if that works better for ya. @Lunarlord34@Sanguine Rose


He sent the text and then leaned against the railing in the cart, praying one of the two answered and were up for the idea. When the lift stopped, Jason stepped off and headed to the library, where the coffee addicted scientist seemed to be more human today and helping out by working the front desk. However, when she saw him, she rushed him with excitement, saying she was glad he was save and then asking how he was and what he learned. This was where he had struggled to decide. The Professor had warned against talking about it and Helga likely didn't want a bunch of people snooping around, so he improvised, though some of it he'd decided on earlier; a white lie in many ways, but mingled with some truth. "I'm doing alright, Jacquelin, just tired. Spent a lot of time out there, but, well, I didn't find anything concrete. There were some areas that looked like they could be ruins, but with all the wild Pokemon there were, I wasn't able to get close enough to confirm much. Sorry."

As he started heading back out of the deep woods, Jason found himself unsure of the exact path forwards he wanted to take. On the one hand, he knew he needed to get stronger, raise his team and get them ready for whatever shenanigans he was going to find himself involved in moving forwards. He also needed to get back to Jacquelyn, update her on what he had actually found. What do I even tell her? Turned nothing up? Nah, I've been gone too long for that...Could give her a false story, just some ruins that indicated a shrine elsewhere...actually, that might work. At the very least it would give her a boost of serotonin for a bit, maybe convince her to actually rest. Jason could still see the coffee Zombie she'd been when he last saw her clearly in his head and shoot it. Seemed it was back to the Scholar district for him then. Then he'd go find that Blue Lichen Cave, mainly cause he was a fan of spelunking and he hadn't gotten to put his gear to use this whole time. And so he followed a Pumpkaboo back out, listening for anything out of the ordinary around him.

Jason wanted to argue with her, to say that taking a natural course to strength might not be fast enough, but he knew the Amazonian woman was probably right. Trying to rush to strength like a bullheaded idiot with more brawn than sense wasn't going to help him and panicking about what could or could not happen wasn't going to help either, so when she said he needed to rest, he nodded in agreement. "Yeah...yeah, you're right. Rest is probably the smart thing to do here." When she asked him to sit down, he did, humming to himself as he waited and trying to figure out his best route forwards. The woods had to still have their secrets, their undiscovered species of Pokemon. Avem was a good little guy, Starly tended to be, but Lucha and he were both flying types and he knew he didn't want to double up on typing. Actually, I think I'm tripled up on flying right now, with Occisor, Avem and Lucha... His typing for the team could use some work, that was for sure.

As Kapoc, after a very telling moment of silence, denied the fact that a person fell out of a hole in the sky, Jason opened his mouth to counter argue, but never got the chance, the Professor moving swiftly on to assure him that the odds of him being moved from the timeline were virtually nil and then, after saying he had other things to do and to essentially leave the situation to the adults, he hung up. Jason could simply stare at his dex/phone combination in disbelief. The hell is with everyone telling me to let this be? I don't have that bloody choice at this point. Still, he rubbed the bridge of his nose in annoyance as he turned to head back inside. He would give the professor one thing, and that was for the time being, all he could do was get stronger, and that meant getting his team evolved, so they were more capable of defending themselves as well. Once he was inside, he looked at Helga. "Where can I go to help make my team stronger? To get stronger myself?"
