Grant shakes his head solemnly. "I think I heard talking further down... but it seems like they have us pretty far apart. ...I wonder if they just paired us all up to play some sort of sick game."
"Considering my take, for once?" Gawain asks.
You might have a point... But Yancy's not giving up, so I can't either.
-----
"Name's Hilbert Black." He replies, with as much formality as he can muster. "I'd say I can't believe I'm meeting such a big celebrity, but I guess we're all nobodies here. Oh..."
He flashes Rosa an apologetic smile. "I might just have told your cousin where we're going. I'm heading the same way, you see and... I can't exactly keep a secret from an old friend. I might not look it, but I am two years your senior."

Yancy was slightly disappointed at Grant's answer, but wasn't really expecting any other answer. "It's okay. It's just like Meridia said; we're with each other in spirit. We may not see or hear them, but they're with us."
And that's why it's important for me to stay strong... For Joshua...
---
Curtis chuckled slightly at Hilbert's reaction. "Don't worry about the formalities. It was a long time ago, and we are all equals here."
"I'd prefer it if you hadn't done that, but she was bound to find out eventually anyway", said Rosa. "So you're Hilbert? Hilda's said a lot about you."
"You are the escort Mewtwo assigned to us?" asked Cobalion, speaking up at last. "What is the extent of your ability?"
In the background, Keldeo began sizing up Hilbert.

Grant smiles. "Yeah, we have to remember the promise we all made back in Realgam. We're not just doing this for each other, but for everyone who can't protect themselves."
The footsteps and humming come to a stop, seemingly very close by.
-----
"Does she?" Black asks Rosa. "Heh, you're gonna make me blush. Don't worry, Hilda is alright with you going. Although she had wanted to come along herself, I guess she's busy coordinating a mission of her own. She wanted me to give you her best regards, though."
And to keep you safe, but I'll leave that to myself...
He smiles at Cobalion. "I might be a bit rusty, but talk is cheap. I'll let my merits speak for themselves when the time comes."

Yancy nodded, but then signaled to Grant to be quiet for a moment. She pointed at her ear and then to the hallway, trying her best to say "did you hear something?"
---
"That's a relief", said Rosa. "Don't worry yourself either, she's said good things about you too... The specifics are private, though."
She tried to come off as joking, but instead her tone remained monotone.
"That is fool's talk," said Cobalion to Hilbert's answer. "It is best to know of such things now during respite. It is never foolish to learn the strengths and weaknesses of your partner for a team to be able to fully support each other in battle."

Silverware clinked against a plate as Celeste finished eating a slice of chocolate cake. He was still rather shaken and sipped from a tea cup in silence. The girl across from him smiled affectionately and broke it.
"Feeling a bit better?"
"...only if I turn my brain off. And for me that's rather hard to do."
"You can ask me anything you like, if it will help."
"Alright...why are you talking like that?"
"Like what?"
"You...you have an accent."
"I'm just copying yours. It's an interesting mix. Learning and unlearning your native tongue, coupled with the stress of those years in the past, scrambled your speech centers a bit. You never noticed that people looked at you differently?"
"I never payed much attention to other people. It's a nice accent though."
Celeste drank some more tea. Then decided to ask another question.
"Dialga said it was a Steel type since Time and Steel are both inflexible. Palkia is a Water type because Space and Water are both Fluid. So explain why Arceus is Multityped. Shouldn't a god have it's own..."divine" type?"
The girl respected the Doctor's inclination to refer to Arceus as a third person and responded in kind.
"Arceus is Multityped because there are multiple types of Arceus. It can be a master of Steel, or a ranger of Dragons. A Sparky digital hero, or an Infectious man of cheese. A Flighty couple of Spirits, an emperor of Fire, or a Fairy queen and her hilarious deception. The creator is many, and it makes no difference if it is many or if it is one. The creation exists and that is what's deserving of the creator's unifying devotion."
"So what you're saying is...Arceus has multiple personality disorder."
"All of creation has a different personality. It's not a disorder if it's the norm. More tea?"
The teapot never seemed to empty, but that didn't really phase Celeste. He could have done the same trick with a liquid pressure triggered teleport and a kettle.
The girl smiled at that bit. "Doctor, you have such a mastery over your own domain. I understand it's quite a shock to realize there is just so much more that you don't understand."
"It's not that...it's not...it's not that. Why me?" Celeste looked up and straight into the girl's eyes, "You're the creator. You brought me here. You could have done anything but you brought me here. Why not bring Maurice here and end the war yourself? Why not bring Mewtwo here and grant him the power to end the war? Why not...why not bring Red back? And don't you dare say that the War is off limits because you stretched those limits and brought me here regardless!"
"Well," She gestured at the Veilstone Sword, "you had an advantage. You wouldn't be here if not for that sword."
"But...why do I have this sword?" Celeste seemed to realize the source of his stress as he began to raise his voice, "If you're the creator...if you're MY creator then nothing I do is really me, is it? I'm not a genius at all. I invented things because you would have me invent them. I do things because you would have me do them. I suffer because you would have me suffer! I'm just...just...just part of your clockwork!"
"That is not true. You follow your own path."
"HOW SO?"
"Because I respect you. Because I would have you to do what is true to you, whatever that is, because that is who you are. We both come into this world as a blank slate and through the journey we call life we are shaped into a person. You are your own person, regardless of how you are created. I respect that, I respect you, and because of that I cannot possibly have you be something that you are not. I respect you as my equal. Do you respect me?"
"Do I have a choice?"
"Yes."
Celeste realized he was standing. He sat. He closed his eyes and exhaled and reached for some tea, sitting a while in thought.
"...where's Red?"
"Unfortunately, the same place you are soon about to go."
The Veilstone Sword twinged.
"And why's that?"
"Because, unfortunately, I respect you. It would be unfair to withhold any information from you any longer, but you cannot be allowed back into the Nova War with this information."
"WHY! Why is the war so..so...arbitrary? You had to have made these rules yourself! Unmake them!"
"I wish I could, but I made a deal. And to break the rules would be to surrender."
Celeste just gave the girl a look, demanding her to go on with his eyebrows.
"It's time, I think, that everything should be revealed. The nature of this war...and where we all truly stand."

Grant perks to attention, looking past the bars to see what Yancy was trying to signal. He notices a person's shadow shift somewhat off to the side, hanging there for a moment until the owner decides to move once again.
"Please, do continue." A husky, feminine voice carries sadistically. "Don't stop talking on my behalf, you were just reaching the resolution..."
The woman steps into frame, wearing a hooded Nova uniform that just made her chin, mouth and scraggly dark hair hang outside.
I recognise her from somewhere...
"It's rude to eavesdrop." Grant replies cautiously. "What do you want?"
"I want you, dearie." The woman says. "Just a moment of your time. You don't mind if I borrow him, do you?" She asks Yancy.
-----
Black's cheeks turn a bit red at Rosa's comment, and he slides his fingers up under his hat and through his hair nervously.
Just what has she been saying while I've been gone...!?
"Sorry, Cobalion, um... sir. I meant no disrespect." He says after an awkward moment. "I'm not a marksman or a psychic or anything fancy like that. But I was chosen by Reshiram, so I must have something going for me, right?"

Yancy shifted her leg and began trying to use the wall to support herself as she attempted to stand up, putting much of her weight onto the leg that wasn't stomped on. She struggled regardless, but continued to stand up anyway.
"I mind."
---
"You possess Reshiram?!" exclaimed Cobalion. "...I had often wondered how both Nova and the Golurk had failed to locate Reshiram despite all these years. If what you say is true, then that's one more worry that may be put to rest."
Keldeo squinted his eyes suspiciously at Black.

Location: Tanoby Ruins
Gary and Molly were dressed in civilian clothes. Nothing fancy. They weren't exactly anticipating heavy combat. Gary had a navy leather jacket over a white collared shirt and brown jeans. Molly wore a simple white dress with a blue jacket and pants beneath it. Both of them slept on makeshift bedding on the ruin's floor.
On the other hand, Eusine made sure that both occupants, especially the female one, knew that he wasn't dressed before nodding off in a sleeping bag on the other side of the room. His clothes were loaded with so many tricks it would be legitimately dangerous to sleep in them. Or so he claimed.
Molly was the first one to awake. It wasn't her fault. Something woke her up. She got up and quickly paced over to the spot where they came in, regardless of the pitch blackness inside the sealed ruins. She waved a hole through the wall, leaving it open to give the boys some fresh air.
Outside, the sun was beginning to rise. The legendary beasts were standing guard, motionless as if statues. They never seemed to need sleep, although at times they fell into trances like this. Molly walked slowly up to Entei, who recognized her presence through his trance. She reached out a careful hand and placed it on the beast's fur.
"...that wasn't really you all those years ago. But even if it was, I doubt you would have remembered me."
Entei remained motionless, as the did other beasts. The sun climbed over the horizon.
"I'm so glad to meet you Entei. After everything else... a legend like you will always be here..."
A sharp splashing noise to the south caught her attention, Molly sharply turned to see a rather large figure kicking up quite the wake as it very quickly swam towards Seven Island. She couldn't make out what it was yet but decided to check it out. The beasts came out of their trance as Molly simply jumped on Entei.
"Suicune, Raikou, wake the others. I'll scout ahead!"
She gestured towards whatever it was and Entei leapt forth. With each step, the water beneath the beast's feet instantly solidified to rock as the duo dashed off.

"I fight because they pay me to do so."
Meridia sat in the corner of the cell, her head down, arms around her legs, curled up as tightly as she could. She had rarely moved from that spot during the past week, and although it was obvious that there was some reason why, she never explained it. But, she continued to speak, and she actually looked up as she spoke to Hugh.
"It's...a long story. I've never really liked to talk about it."

"Don't talk about it if you don't want to", said Hugh. "It's just that I was thinking...
...I really don't have anything to fight for. My home town is destroyed, almost everyone I can consider a friend is dead, I don't have any family anymore, my old team was destroyed and tossed aside while no bat an eye, my Pokemon are probably lab Rattata by now, I don't have anything of value to offer in terms of ability... Even if we make it out of here alive, there's nothing left to drive me to keep going. Whether Mewtwo takes me in or I become some kind of vigilante, I'll just be fighting for the sake of fighting..."
He sighed. "Sorry for rambling... Doubt you care, anyway."

"No, don't worry... I understand what you're saying. I'm from Viridian City, and...my entire family was at the PWT, because I wanted to go..." Meridia said.

*Anna punches Hugh off screen*
"This is my show now! 'Cause it's time for the..."
TEAM NOVA MAILBAG!!1!
Note: The episode is rather long, so I'll divide it into individual posts despite the lack of character limit for the sake of formatting and because I feel like the reply screen glitches out a lot more often the longer the post gets.
---
Mira was the first to be dragged onstage, being pulled by the chain around her collar by a Mankey as Anna stayed behind her to hold Mira's wrists and keep her from lashing out.
The Mankey stopped. Anna pulled herself close to Mira and held up the trigger to the electricity-charged bracelets she and the other guests were forced to wear.
"I hope I don't need to explain what happens if you don't do what I say."
Anna pulled the tape that had gagged Mira's mouth.
"Mira isn't doing squat even if you press that button twenty times!"
"Are you sure?" replied Anna. She rubbed the trigger a bit. "Because I know the trigger is long distance, and I recall your friends also wearing similar bracelets."
"Wait, huh?"
Anna made an exaggerated gesture as if she was going to press the button, but Mira protested.
"Wait!" she cried. "...Mira understands... What does she need to do?"
---
The curtains opened to signal the episode's beginning. Anna came front stage, holding Mira's chain and pulling her in behind her. "How's everyone doing tonight?!"
Standard audience applause.
"Good!" Anna came up behind Mira and put her hands on her shoulders. "Let's not waste time so that we can meet our first guest: Mira!"
Anna pushed Mira forward slightly and let go. Following Anna's instructions, she forced a smile and waved to the audience before turning to the side, putting her hands behind her head, arching her back, and swinging her hip at the audience, who cheered in adoration and approval. Anna pulled on her chain again to lead her to a sofa center-stage. Anna sat in the middle with her legs together. Mira hesitated before turning back to the audience and sitting on Anna's lap with her legs spread apart slightly. A Mankey helper sat down on front to keep it's hands on Mira's loose chain. She raised her right arm up to wrap Anna's head from behind in a somewhat intimate fashion.
Mira hated how Anna's bare skin felt.
"Let's begin!"
Mira felt Anna rubbing something small on the left part of her back, but didn't express anything but mild discomfort about it. What she didn't notice was that Anna pulled a gauntlet out of Annaspace to wear as she rubbed a fragment of a red seed on her briefly before flicking it away and, with the flick of a wrist, returning the gauntlet from whence it came (where ever that is.)
Why do you speak in the third person?
Mira: "It's an endearing character trait!"
But HOW does Mira talk the way Mira does?
Mira: "...With her mouth... And tongue... And vocal chords."
Why does Mira only have one of Mira's ponytails tied in a loop?
Mira: "Mira used to wear them both in a loop. But then one of Mira's hair clips broke one time and one of the loops became untied. Mira thought she looked better with only one loop though, so she kept it like that."
Anna: "I think we can all agree that you're rocking that style!"
Anna wrapped both of her arms around Mira's bare waist and pulled her closer, prompting a brief glare from her.
Is Mira psychic or is that just Cosmic Drive? If Mira was psychic what would Mira do with psychic powers?
Mira: "Sadly, it's all because of the Cosmic Drive. If Mira was psychic... She'd do pretty much the same as with the Cosmic Drive... With a little bit less 'falling asleep within a few minutes whether you want to or not'."
Mira found herself briefly breathing harder as Anna continued snuggling up to her. A blush was beginning to form on her cheek.
If Buck could hear you right now, what would you say to him?
Mira: "Buck, where the heck are you?! Mira refuses to believe you're dead so... j-just show yourself, already!"
Do you like flying and fighting with your Drive?
Mira: "Umm... Duh?"
What's Your Motive for fighting Nova?
Mira: "They're evil bullies that need to be stopped, that's what! They've caused other people so much pain and kill so many other people; we can't just let them do what they want!"
Mira flinched slightly as Anna let one of her arms go and started tracing a figure-8 around Mira's midriff.
What's the worst thing the Nova War has done to you personally?
Mira: "Hurt Mira's friends!"
Why was Mira lost in a cave? Doesn't Mira know it's dangerous to go alone?
Mira: "Mira lost in a cave?"
Anna: "You got lost in Wayward Cave a bunch of years ago."
Mira: "Hmm... Oh yeah! Mira got lost because she tried looking for Gible there. But Mira wasn't alone, she had Kadabra (even though he's not a Kadabra anymore)!"
What does Mira think of the Mewtwo rebels?
Mira: "They're nice, Mira guesses..."
Stat Trainers...why those stats?
Mira: "Why Special Attack? Because Mira simply doesn't like using brute force like Riley, but she still want to finish enemies quickly unlike Cheryl or Buck and with a KABOOM unlike Marley. So... Special Attack!"
Can you explain what a stat is and does?
Mira: "Well, there are two kinds of attacks: physical and special attacks." Mira paused as Anna stopped tracing figures on her stomach and reached toward her legs to pull them apart some more. Mira tried to ignore one of the cameramen zooming in with their camera. "2 stats figure into each of those types: Attack influences how strong a physical attack is, and Defense influences how much damage a Pokemon receiving a physical attack takes; the higher, the less injured they become. Ditto with Special Attack and Special Defense for... well, Special Attack. Speed is obviously how fast a Pokemon can move in battle without stuff like Quick Attack, and HP is a measure of the Pokemon's current stamina. Each Pokemon has a different 'distribution' of stats, hence why a Jolteon is faster than a Snorlax, or how a Gyarados is physically stronger than a Blissey."
Anna: "And how are stats calculated numerically?"
Mira: "By a very complicated and confusing math equation Mira never bothered learning."
Anna went back to hugging Mira, but the latter began feeling a slight tingle everywhere Anna touches.
Did You Know: Austin was once a Xerneas Member...
Mira: "Pfftt. Mira thinks she would remember seeing him, especially when we started getting cramped for space."
...And that Riley Likes Cheryl?
Mira: "More than likes."
What happens to the consciousness of your Pokemon when you use your Cosmic Drive?
Mira: "They kinda see everything Mira sees, but are otherwise asleep. It's kinda weird."
Anna: "Speaking of CDs, this question was for Cheryl, but I think you're better suited to answering this one."
Anna ran a hand across Mira's right leg, causing her to shiver.
What are the specifics behind [Cheryl's] Cosmic Drive? How does it work?
Mira: "You know how when a Pokemon and a Trainer love each other very much, they perform better in battles, with Pokemon dodging more often, gaining more experience, landing critical hits, etc.? It's like that, only multiplied. Kinda boring if you ask Mira."
Anna: "You do realize that since their bonds are CD'd or whatever like that, that they pretty much spit on Starburst because of it?"
Mira became silent.
Mira: "...Mira never considered that. Mira feels stupid now."
What did Mira think of the Xerneas rebels?
Mira: "They're awesome! Sure, Neal has done some... weird stuff... and Katherine did that... one thing... But still!"
Did you ever have feelings for Buck?
Mira: "Ew, no--
Eek!"
Anna let go of her hug and was gently caressing Mira's legs with her fingers. Mira's breathing began getting shakier and her face was getting redder.
What was Mira's last relationship like?
Mira: "Like Pikablu: doesn't exist."
Does Mira like being aggressively shipped with Marley?
Mira involuntarily twitched as Anna's fingers started wandering to her inner thighs.
Mira: "N-Not one bit!"
What was your first Pokemon, and how did you meet them?
Mira: "A-Abra, which is now Mira's Alakazam. Mira found him in the wild... Like a regular old Pokemon."
What has been your hardest challenge in the War?
Mira: "Trying not to fall asleep in the worst possible time everytime Mira Cosmic Drives."
Mira suppressed a gasp as Anna spread her legs apart further and began moving upward to Mira's inner thighs. Her legs were beginning to quiver.
Please explain Mira's previous encounters with talking casanova wingull.
Mira: "Mira accidentally charged into what she thought was a Nova base once. It was a Dream Mist refining cabin that Mira accidentally breathed in when she busted in. The talking casanova Wingull appeared and promised Mira a life of 'wildest pleasure, breathtaking adventure, and endless amounts of succulent seafoo--'
AAH!"
Anna's finger rubbed across Mira's unmentionables, causing her to shriek and involuntarily jump forward, closing her legs and bringing her hands down. Anna stood up and spoke to her microphone.
"That's all for this round, folks. Stay tuned after the break for our next guest!"
The curtains closed as Mira sat on the floor panting. Anna stood up.
"That's it!" said Anna. "You're free to go!"
"...R-Really?" stuttered Mira.
"Yep!" said Anna. "...Except I have no idea how to teleport you out, but since you apparently automatically teleport out of here when you leave far enough from the building as a failsafe, I know just the thing!"
Anna tapped the floor twice with her foot. She and the Mankey holding Mira's chain dropped everything and jumped away as a part of the stage floor underneath Mira revealed itself to be some kind of spring and launched her through the roof at high speeds. The spring retracted to the floor and everything seemingly returned to normal.
"Next guest!"

The only thing Marley could do as Anna finished chaining her up on the stage was glare at her and the Mankey holding the leash. Her ankles were chained to the floor, though the freedom of movement given meant it was to keep her from running off with Agility more than anything else. Her wrists were being chained to hold her hands upward and separately from one another, like a Y formation. Anna made sure that Marley couldn't wiggle out of her bindings before undoing her gag.
On an unrelated note, the hole Mira left behind as she blasted off was completely fixed during the commercial break, leaving no evidence of blasting off.
"Where's Shaymin?" was the first thing Marley asked.
"You'll see", said Anna. She reached toward Marley's butt to raise her bottoms a bit... and slip a small red seed fragment there in a way that it'd make continued contact with Marley.
---
The crowd cheered as the curtains raised and the cameramen began picking out their zoom-in targets to show on the surrounding monitors just as they've done with Mira. Anna stood to Marley's right with an arm around her back as if they were old chums.
"And now for out next guest: Marley!"
"..."
What's your favorite Color?
Marley: "Black."
Do you ever get annoyed by Mira's antics?
Marley: "Rarely."
Marley's eyes widened as Anna rubbed her sides.
What's Your Favorite Pokemon?
Marley: "Between Arcanine and Shaymin, I cannot say."
What's Your Motive for fighting Nova?
Marley: "What isn't my motive?"
Anna moved behind Marley and moved her hands to her hips. Marley flinched as she felt a tingling sensation she's never felt before.
Anna: "Aww c'mon, can't you not be so blunt for a few seconds and go into more detail with your answers?"
Marley stared at her and said nothing. Anna sighed before letting go.
What's the worst thing the Nova War has done to you personally.
Marley: "Ruin our lives."
What are you most thankful for?
Marley: "Being surrounded by my friends once again."
Now that you have permanent agility, do things feel slower?
Marley: "Not particularly."
Did You Know: Austin was once a Xerneas Member
Marley: "No."
Riley Likes Cheryl?
Marley: "Yes."
Marley gasped as Anna delivered a playful smack on her rear... And held it. Despite herself, Marley blushed.
Anna: "Seriously, can't you lighten up just a little?"
Marley: "Very well. I am aware that Riley and Cheryl's relationship extends farther than mere 'liking' and I am well aware of their romantic views for one another.
...Satisfied?"
Marley gasped as Anna delivered another smack on the other cheek after letting go. "It'll do."
Do you dye your hair or is that natural?
Marley: "Natural. I am not like that fool Buck."
Do you enjoy your current attire?
Marley: "Were I not put on display like a perverted man's sick fantasy, I would say yes."
What were you first pokemon and how did you meet them?
Marley: "Growlithe, met while on a trip to Kanto."
Keep,Kiss,Kill: Riley, Austin, Eusine
Marley: "Keep Riley, Kiss Austin, Kill Eusine."
Marley gasped even louder than before as Anna began swiping a small paintbrust dipped in water around her back, forcing her to arc it.
Anna: "Speaking of which..."
Do you possess feelings for Austin and/or Eusine?
Marley: "Do not insult me."
Anna: "...Ouch."
If Buck could hear you right now, what would you say to him?
Marley: "Buck, I do believe you're not of this world and I've come to accept this... But if you would come to prove me wrong... I'll gladly accept it."
Ever smoked a marley, man?
Marley: "...Pardon?"
Anna: "A joint."
Marley: "No.
...mmn!"
Now Anna stopped brushing the paintbrush on her back and moved onto her bare midriff. Her blush was beginning to become more obvious.
Ever tried speed, man?
Marley: "Who on Earth names these things?"
Why the Gothitelle look?
Marley: "I appreciate the elegance."
Stat Trainers...why those stats?
Marley: "I prefer quick and precise movements."
What do you think of the Mewtwo rebels?
Marley: "A very welcome breath of competence."
What did you think of the Xerneas rebels?
Marley: "Good potential wasted by poor leadership."
Anna crept up behind her and began rubbing a finger into Marley's armpits, causing her to stiffen and behind shaking. Seeing that Marley wouldn't be showing any more of a reaction, Anna stopped.
Why do you like Shaymin and Gracidea Flowers so much?
Marley: "I... I don't like to talk... I choose my words carefully, but they may still hurt someone accidentally... When I think of that, I clam up... That's why I think Shaymin and the Flowers are so wonderful. They convey the feelings of gratitude in a nice way... Now more than ever, negative emotions are rampant due to the war... So seeing Shaymin and the Flowers... It's a reminder that the world is still beautiful no matter how bleak it may seem. I want everyone to be able to see these positive emotions... Maybe raise their spirits... Just a little."
Anna: "Guess you're not as cynical as I thought. Anyway, time for our next guest!"
Anna gagged Marley's mouth with tape once again. She whispered in Marley's ear.
"I hope you're not ticklish..."
A Mankey holding something teleported onstage. Marley began struggling with her arms once she realized that it was Shaymin it was holding.
...There was yellow paste on certain areas on it's back.
"We did things a tad differently with this one", said Anna. "Since I couldn't figure out the translator mics, we had it draw out it's answers ahead of time that I'll be showing you all. In the meantime..."
Anna picked up Shaymin and shoved him onto Marley's chest, with her breasts feeling Shaymin's flowery fur, sticking him onto her. Upon feeling physical contact, the oddly enthusiastic Shaymin began rubbing itself against Marley, causing her to feel an electrifying sensation as he did so; especially on her breasts. To make matters worse, it actually did tickle.
Marley wouldn't know, but Shaymin was given a red seed.
Anna: "Let's see here..."
Anna got her flashcards ready began with the questions as Marley blushed, struggled, and squirmed in the background.
What does gratitude taste like?
Anna held up a crudely drawn birthday cake.
Does Seedflare hurt?
Anna held up a big "NO". Marley moaned in the background.
What bond do you feel to Marley?
Anna held up a giant pink heart... As in a human heart, strangely.
Mira or Cheryl?
Anna held up a picture of a stick figure shrugging.
What do you think of your fellow,"Tiny legendaries"?
Anna continued holding up the image of the stick figure shrugging.
What do you eat?
Anna held up a stock image of various fruits. Marley was breathing heavily in the background.
Ever smoke a marley with Marley, man?
Anna held a picture of a giant question mark.
Are you a shaman? Would you like to be?
Anna continued holding up the question mark.
"And that's that!" she said. "Our next guest right after the break!"
The curtains closed and Anna went over to the squirming Marley and cut her chains with a laser sword. Before Marley could retaliate violently, Anna backed off and tapped the floor twice with her foot. the spring floor launched Marley away... Through the same point Mira was thrown through.
"Next!"

As told, Cheryl reluctantly put the red seed fragment in her mouth and swallowed.
"Remember the plan", muttered Anna.
A rectangular table with a pillow now on the stage, the curtains opened up and Anna escorted Cheryl in through her leash. They stopped in the middle of the stage as Cheryl hesitated briefly before smiling and arcing her back and pushing her chest out toward the audience by stretching her arms back and rubbing her legs, leaning forward and putting her hands on her knees, and turning and dropping on all fours with her rear to the audience. After roaring applause, Anna tugged on her leash to get her to stand back up. She raised a bottle of some kind of lubricant.
On an unrelated note, the hole that Marley left behind was lazily covered up by a piece of plywood with no attempt being made of hiding it.
"Anna's Oils, everybody! It's one of our sponsors!"
With another tug, Cheryl went over to the table and laid face down, resting her head on the pillow and folding her arms beneath it. She closed her eyes and braced for the inevitable.
"Let's begin!"
Keep,Kiss,Kill: Riley, Eusine, Mira
Cheryl: "Keep Riley, Kiss Mira, Kill Eusine."
Anna walked to Cheryl's side and rubbed some of the oil on her hands. She began applying the oil to Cheryl's lower legs as her face began turning red.
How old are You?
Cheryl: "29."
Stat Trainers...why those stats?
Cheryl: "I prefer wearing down my opponent's stamina while making sure my own Pokemon are able-bodied to withstand a number of injuries themselves.
Cheryl twitched slightly as Anna began rubbing oil on her thighs.
How long does it take to braid your hair each morning?
Cheryl: "Only a minute. You pick up a trick or two doing so."
Why green?
Cheryl: "It is simply my favorite color."
Do you enjoy vines?
Cheryl: "I merely enjoy nature in general."
Cheryl gasped as Anna rubbing the oil onto her mostly bare butt, with Cheryl beginning to notice that her touch started causing stronger feelings the more she lingered in one area. The fact that she’s taking to squeezing occasionally didn’t help matters.
What's Your Motive for fighting Nova?
Cheryl: "S-Same reason as anyone, really."
Did You Know: You can lead a Rapidash to water, but can't make it drink?
Cheryl: "I am familiar with the saying, yes."
Cheryl felt Anna beginning to rub a liberal amount of oil on her back and stiffened a moan.
Why are you seemingly so unfazed by Riley's half-naked figure?
Cheryl: "Because I've seen him naked before."
The crowd went silent and Anna momentarily stopped rubbing oil.
Anna: "...Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
Cheryl: "Next question, please."
Anna shrugged before continuing to rub oil on Cheryl's back, reaching toward her shoulders, as if to give her a massage.
What's the worst thing the Nova War has done to you personally.
Cheryl: "It was right after-- oh wow that actually feels quite nice, Anna. Can you rub the area a little bit more beneath the neck, please? ...Aah, thank you. Now... Sorry, what was I answering again?"
Anna: "Eh. The answer was a spoiler anyway. Next question!"
Anna moved her hands more downward once more. Her touch was beginning to send an electrical chill through Cheryl.
Your hair and clothes are green and your name sounds similar to a plant, so why aren't you a Grass type trainer like Arceus intended?
Cheryl: "If Arceus intended it to be so, it's sense of humor eludes me. I suppose you could say I challenged my fate, if that were the case."
Anna patted Cheryl’s back twice as a signal. Cheryl flipped herself over and raised her arms over her head. Anna straddled her and began rubbing oil around her stomach. Cheryl continued closing her eyes, quivering slightly.
What were you first pokemon and how did you meet them?
Cheryl: "Chansey, who got lost one night and wandered into our front yard when I was younger."
What's the most violent thing either you or your pokemon have done?
Cheryl: "I cannot say what is the most violent, but I'm ashamed to say I've crushed number of people with Earthquake or Fissure, impaled some with Stone Edge, and torn others to pieces..."
If Buck could hear you right now, what would you say to him?
Cheryl: "I wish I was able to do more for you..."
Cheryl gasped in surprise as she felt oil-filled hands on her breasts. She let a moan escape her, but stiffened any further gasps as Anna’s hands slipped beneath her top and applied the oil.
You're looking like Eve, is Riley your Adam?
Cheryl: "M-My apologies. I don't believe I'm familiar with that piece of mythology."
Cheryl brought her hands down on her mouth to suppress any miscellaneous sounds trying to escape her. Her arms were folded to the side our of fear that Anna would press the trigger. Her legs were beginning to quiver.
What is your history with Riley?
Cheryl: "W-We first met in the Battleground as I accompanied Gardenia and he accompanied Byron. We hit it off well, especially when we started become Battle Zone regulars. Eventually, he asked me out on a date and, well... Then we were separated in the Nova attack years later and now I... I have some problems I feel I need to deal with before I feel comfortable continuing as we were before."
Cheryl gasped in relief as Anna let her hands go and stepped off of Cheryl. She crossed her arms over her chest as she was panting.
"Alright, that's all for this one, folks! We'll be back right after the break!
---
Anna held Cheryl's chain as she knelt on the ground, letting her take a breather.
"There... I did what you said", panted Cheryl.
"You did great!" said Anna. "I still feel bad for what I gotta do now, though."
Anna let go of the chain and tapped the floor twice with her foot. Cheryl was launched by the spring floor through the piece of plywood covering the hole in the ceiling.
"Next!"

Riley allowed himself to be led by chain onstage.
"You remember the instructions and what would happen if you didn't do what I say, right?"
"I just have one question for you, Anna", replied Riley.
He followed the question up by performing an Aura Burst to destroy the bracelets and collar on him.
"Did you ever think this plan through?"
Riley advanced toward Anna as she nervously laughed and backed away. "Ehehehe... Mankeys? Anyone there? I kinda need you here!"
Anna heard something from her ear piece.
"W-What do you mean they're on strike?!
...What do you mean they no longer have free dental?!"
Anna held up the trigger to the now-destroyed bracelets. "S-Stop! If you don't, I'll shock your friends!"
"I saw their auras get launched and disappear", said Riley. "More importantly, I saw that they were under some hefty abuse by you! I couldn't do anything with those strangely durable walls and door in my room, but we're not there anymore, are we?"
Anna cowered. "W-What are you gonna do?!"
Riley tapped his foot twice on the floor after making Anna back up to a certain point. The spring floor activated and launched her through the ceiling. Although the "fixers" didn't bother sealing the hole Cheryl left behind, Anna managed to get thrown a little too far left and got a faceful of ceiling as she broke through it.
Riley looked around.
"...Now what?"
---
The curtains opened up with Riley taking center stage and holding a pack of flashcards and some kind of device. He paused before bowing.
"Uh... Hello! I'm Riley! Anna had an 'accident', so... Guess I'm just going to read these questions myself...
...Bear with me, I have no idea what I'm doing."
Do you consider Eusine as a rival regarding Cheryl's affections?
Riley: “Having a rival assumes that there’s competition.”
Did you ever get the chance to mega-evolve Lucario?
Riley: "I wish. And as far as I know, the 'Lucario can mega evolve without a megastone with strong aura' myth is a pack of lies."
How did you become an Aura user?
Riley: "I was trained... Like almost every other aura user. Hell, some of them go their whole lives without realizing they're capable of manipulating it with training. It's really hard to use aura accidentally."
Stat Trainers...why those stats?
Riley: "Because of coincidence. I didn't realize my Pokemon team prioritized attack above all else until it was pointed out to me."
Is Reading Aura ever a bad thing, like If You Read A Teenage Boy's? Or Maurice's? Would they be Too....Strong?
Riley: "It's a common misconception, but I can't flat-out read people's minds like that; only emotional wavelengths, and what physical movements they're about to perform. That said, I'd really like to be able to read Maurice's aura one day... I want to see what makes that guy tick."
What made you choose your hat?
Riley: "The fact that I make it look good."
Riley read the next question silently.
"If Buck could hear you right now, what would you say to him?"
Riley frowned and tossed that card away.
What's the worst thing the Nova War has done to you personally.
Riley: "Use one of my co-workers to find and destroy one of our bases. It just drives me mad how they had the gal to exploit the guy like that. All they needed was a moment of weakness and they milked it for all it was worth. I have no hard feelings towards Curtis whatsoever for what he did. I probably wouldn't have been able to do anything different."
Are you furry for Lucario?
Riley: "Ehehehe-- NO."
Do you Miss Ice Cheryl? How About Regice? Did Regice accurately capture Certain Parts Of Cheryl?
Riley: "An ice ice sculpture, all things considered. For all those questions, I give a 'No' to each."
What were you first pokemon and how did you meet them?
Riley: "Riolu. My old teacher gave it to me as an egg."
How do you stay so zen?
Riley: "Genetics?"
How Do you feel About:-- oh boy-- Meridia, Grant, Cheryl, Marley, Mira, Benga, John Doe, Yancy, Neal, Austin, Eusine, Victini, and Shaymin?
Riley took a deep breath.
Riley: "Meridia: We're not on speaking terms.
Grant: A bit young to be in the army.
Cheryl: A beautiful and graceful lady.
Marley: Not as cold-hearted as she seems.
Mira: Surprised how childish she still is. Not really a bad thing, though.
Benga: Surprisingly competent. Could use some aura tips from him. I might just learn a thing or two.
John Doe: He's kind of like another Marley in a way, just with more spy action and more angsty. Now that I know who he is though, I can't really blame him.
Yancy: Needs more self-confidence in herself. Everyone appreciates what she does, after all.
Neal: No opinion.
Austin: A bit young to be in the army.
Eusine: I honestly wonder whether he's dead or not.
Victini: No opinion
Shaymin: cute."
Did You Know: Pokeidol 'Nancy' is a Mewtwo Member Dating another Mewtwo Member and former Pokestar,Joshua?
Riley: "I actually didn't know they were dating. Sure, 'John Doe' was seemingly very comfortable around Yancy and she seemed content being around him, but when I figured out who he was I thought it was just because they were longtime friends. Still, good to see her moving on from what happened to Nate..."
How does an aura blackout compare to a hangover?
Riley: "You're more likely to wake up from a hangover."
What's Your Motive for fighting Nova?
Riley: "The obvious."
What have you done with your powers that you would be most ashamed to reveal right now?'
Riley: "Cheat at cards."
Do aura carpets match aura drapes?
Riley: "Depends on what an aura carpet or an aura drape is."
Will you be my prince? - signed Elsa
Riley: "Please don't joke like that."
"...Oh hey, looks like that's all the questions... Bye."
The episode ended with Riley pressing a button on the device, activating a different spring floor than the one used all episode and being launched through the roof. Viewers at home were cut to the 'WHOOPS! TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES!' screen to end the episode.
~~
WE NOW RETURN TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING.

Austin sat down with his iced coffee and a A PopArtTart. It had a Picture of Benga on ot doing his grandfather's signature salute.
Whilst anyone else simply would see a cafeteria full of Mewtwo soldiers, he aaw a room of Ruffians smoking Dream Mist.
I hope they don't offer me any
" Want some, kid?"
"No!"
He recieved many strange looks, but the approaching Lacey ignored it.
Lacey pulled up a chair and sat down. " Hurry up and finish, We have an assignment."
Austin was confused and intended to show it, but on the outside had no expression at all. He was completely expressionless.
"I don't remember Joining another faction,and Neal reaccepting me is currently impossible. Besides Xerneas is all, but assimilated into Mewtwo.And I would never havd any hope of joining Mewtwo or even surviving if I did. "
Lacey looked at him and scribbled something on the notepad she had on her clipboard. "No, The Professor has Given Us an Assignment. She said that if you do well then she might try and Upgrade your drive or something. "
This perked him up, of course it didn't show on the outside. His face was completely expressionless. " Okay, So what is it?"
"We're going to-"
"Okay, So what is it?"
Lacey scribbled somemore down.
"Well, are you going to tell me?"
"We're-"
"Well, are you going to tell me?"
Lacey scribbled more down as she spoke, in order to not be cut off again."We're going to a Church in the Forest region of Orre. Ever heard of the Legend of Lord Helix? "
"Yeah, Something about bird Jesus and the Virgin Marill, right?yYou don't believe it do you?"
Lacey began to speak but was once again, interrupted."You don't believe it, do you?"
This time she didn't note anything until after she answered."Of Course Not, That's ridiculous albeit interesting. And that's why you're escorting me there to take notes on their beliefs, the religion's origin and excerpts from their Religious Book. "
"Why? I mean Most scientists are Atheists. I mean, if you are then that's your choice, of course I a proud member of the Arcues Church."
Lacey sighed. " The Professor writes Columns in Magazines, and Newspapers. She also writes Very Famous Research papers. How else do you think Scientists fund things? As her assistant and apprentice, I need to learn how to do the same. And I'm not Atheist, I'm a Lroud member of the Church of Goomy."
Austin was a little shocked, however it again didn't show on his expressionless face.
Lacey got up. "Let's go, We need to get an early start."
They set off.

Location: Off the coast of the Tanoby Ruins
As Entei neared whatever was splashing about, Molly could make out that it wasn't a pokemon. It was a small Nova ship. Just one, and it looked incredibly battered. The engine was sputtering and kicking up all sorts of sea spray and noise as it made a beeline towards Seven Island.
There were about a dozen crew members, one of whom saw Entei sending the rest into a panic. Molly called out.
"um..um..Ahoy..I think! What are you doing here?"
Their response came in the form of a single machine gun being fired at her as the boat passed their position.
"Ah!"
Molly instinctively held out her arms in front of her as she yelped. Before the bullets could graze her or Entei, they disintegrated. Molly shook her head and blinked, pointing at the boat. Entei followed in pursuit. As they pulled up alongside the boat, they could hear an argument among the crew.
"You idiot! Why are you shooting at it!?"
"Dude. It's Entei. We are so dead. I'm going down fighting."
"If it wanted us dead it would have killed us before we saw it!"
Molly called out.
"I don't want you dead! At least, I don't think I do. I don't know about Entei either...but there's no reason to shoot at me!"
After a brief second, one of them called out "That isn't exactly reassuring!" and chucked a grenade Molly's way. She flinched back as it exploded, passing over her to no effect. Most of the crew was busy wondering what happened. The apparent leader of the bunch was busy socking the guy that threw the grenade with the machine gun he had confiscated earlier. The leader then called back.
"Please, we're lost at sea. We see land over there, just let us make iiiIIII!-"
He was cut off as the boat capsized back over front, a pair of Machamp arms having slammed down on the bow of the moving vessel. Gary had teleported in. On his back was his usual battle-pack, a glowing core of energy firmly at its center. From this core, Scizor wings fluttered outwards keeping him aloft, and four Machamp arms were raised at his sides.
Vine Whip
His mental command was executed in an instant, and the Machamp arms blinked out for a Venusaur flower and vines. He scooped up each of the crew holding them upside down wrapped up in the air. He brought the leader in close.
"What do you want, and why shouldn't I kill you?"
The leader eeked out a response.
"S-sanctuary. Rest. Because we're helpless."
He was turned right side up. Gary barked at him.
"Explain your situation soldier!"
"W-we mutinied. We ran from a battle. We're trying to quit Nova!"
"...let me think about it."
He began hovering back towards the Ruins, ex-Nova crew in tow. He passed by Eusine and Suicune who were just making their way over to Molly and Entei.
"Hey! What'd I miss?"
"...does it really take you that long to get dressed? High maintenance. Not very attractive."
"Eh what? I'll have you know it takes effort to look this good!"
Molly looked him up and down.
"...only that good? Sad."

Near the top of Mt. Battle, Orre

Now there Sits A Lone Object.
A crack Appeared in the Orichalcum Case.

Location: Goldenrod Underground
3 days ago
A horrible racket was being kicked up, and had been for the past few hours.
"FIFTY BUCKS THIS ALSO FAILS!"
Marissa yelled over the grinding sounds coming from Harry's new machines. A whirl of metal and lasers hacked away fruitlessly at a decently sized hunk of mineral that had been eluding injury for the past three years.
Harry yelled back "IF IT WORKS YOU SHAVE YOUR HEAD!!!"
The machines chose that moment to crack sputter and die. Harry reached for his wallet.
2 days ago
A radiation bath was screaming as energies that could deep fry liquid nitrogen whipped across the surface of the still inert cocoon.
"THIS ONE FOR SURE!"
"DYE YOUR HAIR PINK FOR A MONTH!"
"NO DEAL!"
A fireball erupted from the mineral, engulfing its containment chamber. The resulting negative pressure void tipped the mechanical arm devices off balance sending them crashing to the ground. The emergency exhaust vented and the climate around Goldenrod increased by a degree in temperature for the rest of the day.
Yesterday
No grinding this time. Just Harry muttering to himself, examining the pink jewel under a microscope.
"The Orichalcum-Adamant alloy is drawn and spun before being woven at a nano level..."
Marissa was floating a few stone orbs around mindlessly. Why did Celena have to put both of them on this assignment? It's bad enough being stuck with Mr. Roboto here...
"I'm guessing it's nothing you've ever seen before."
Harry's mask displayed rolling eyes, "Honey, this stuff makes Celena's suit look like a pinata."
Marissa snapped back, "and it makes all your machines look like water pistols, dear."
Harry had a mechanical arm fling a wrench at Marissa. It stopped in mid air a few inches from her face. The smoke bomb attached the wrench then detonated, causing the female Nova Executive to fall out of her chair coughing.
*hack hakc hakch* "Getting sick of your toys Harry!"
The orbs she was toying with clattered to the floor, one of them rolling up to Harry's feet. He picked it up.
"....what is this?"
"Diancienite! *hack ahck* Thought it'd be moral support!"
Harry just looked at the mega-stone, thinking. Then more thinking. Then speaking.
"No way is it that easy...it can't be that simple. Haha...hahahahah!"
Harry got up in a rush to get something or other. Marissa just watched him, figuring he'd gone insane.
1 hour ago
"Three years. Three years and a team of mad machinists and nobody has thought of this until now?"
Harry insisted that they be in their armor for this. Marissa humored him, but still snarked along.
"A team of mad machinists is exactly why not even Celena could break this. It can't be broken form the outside! It's just impossible! But we are so blind! Not enough of Nova uses the traditional methods, even I had too much tunnel vision to see it properly."
"Get to the point."
"Well, the cocoon is impenetrable and fits Diancie inside perfectly."
"And?"
"Mega Diancie is bigger."
Harry jammed the Diancienite into his Mega Gauntlet and engaged. In an instant, light sparkled through the coccoon, which began rattling.
"Loser gives Celena a cake."
"Deal."
Rattling increased. Light intensified. Harry and Marrissa had to activate barriers to shield themselves from the shards of diamond that began flooding the room. A great cracking was heard, like ice coming off of a glacier, and like that Mega-Diancie was free from her self-imposed prison.
The Jewel pokemon collapsed on the floor immediately. Apparently being frozen in time saps your energy.
The tendrils on Marissa's suit uncurled with a snap.
"Finally, my turn to have some fun!"
Location: Tanoby Ruins
Gary set (ok dropped) the Ex-Nova crew on the ground.
Earth Power
It seemed like he sprouted a Nidoking horn for a brief moment as pillars of earth surrounded the crew and himself so that there'd be no escape. Obscured from view, they had a little chat.
From a fair distance away, Eusine and Molly had a chat too. Well, not entirely true. Eusine was chatting.
"So how'd you find this Gary guy anyways? You seem to get along."
"..."
"And now you're quiet. See, this is why I keep trying to talk to you. You don't tell me to stop."
"..."
"You're supposed to tell me to-"
"He rescued me."
"...ah. Alright then."
Eusine thought for a moment, then undid his bow tie. He turned and pulled down the collar of his shirt, showing Molly the back of his shoulder.
"I think they're initials..."
Molly hesitated, but eventually turned to look. Her eyes fell on the branded scar on Eusine's back.
"...treble and bass clef. Not initials. I'm sorry for your, um, experience."
"Thanks. That actually makes me feel better."
Eusine did up his collar again, trying not to look expectantly at Molly. She noticed and thought it was best to clear things up.
"Um...I didn't mean Nova. He rescued me from somewhere else..."
Eusine was curious, but decided that was enough for now. Molly noticed his silence and was about to say "thank you" before she was interrupted by the lound noise of earthen pillars retracting intot he ground. Gary stood alone.
Eusine called out "Hey! What'd you do with them?"
"Teleported them to safety."
"Really?"
"None of your business. Let's get a move on, we're burning daylight. Raikou!"
The thunder beast leapt as Gary did to mount him in one fell swoop. The pair raced off towards somewhere with better radio reception, the others forced to play catch up.
