## History

### As a Human

George as a human had a rather normal life before his untimely conversion into his new Leafeon form. He had many friends and people who liked him a lot but he was always very shy. His greatest desire was always to one day became a great painter of wildlife since he loved nature and even Pokemon despite his parents being Pokemon hunters and explicitly telling him to never get involved with Pokemon. Despite this, his parents still cared about him and were surprisingly kind. With his kind and nice demeanor to others, he was able to get and date many different girlfriends, but the problem was every single one he had seemingly disappeared leading George to believe that he was cursed, unknowing of the one who was actually pulling the strings; the Vaporeon named Izumi.

### As a Leafeon

When George one day woke up in the forest and saw himself as a Leafeon, he was shocked and terrified. He had gained so many friends and had such a nice family and for them to be taken away from him just like that against his will was traumatizing to the poor guy, especially by the one who killed all his previous girlfriends, Izumi. The Vaporeon girl wanted his love immensely but he denied her each time because he believed she didn’t deserve it after all she had done to him. One time, the two did battle and Izumi beat George nearly to his last breath and forced him to give her an egg. George was able to get the egg back which soon hatched into an Eevee he named Tyrone, however, George didn’t feel responsible enough to take care of him so he gave him away to a close friend named Amber the Kirlia. After this, George went into the wild and started training, getting many new skills and abilities along the way. Despite his circumstances, he was also still capable of making many friends such as a clothes-making Glaceon named Euclase and A Noivern named Morrigan. George grew especially attached to Euclase, and spent the most time bonding and talking with him kindly. After fighting an even more powerful version of Izumi, he beat her and killed her once and for all. A little while after, George wanted to at least get memories of his past human life by going into his original room since at this point, he had nearly fully accepted his Leafeon form. However, things took an awful turn when his parents discovered him in his room still with their hunting equipment on and when they picked him up and tried to cut off his tail, his instincts took over which caused him to slice them both with a Leaf Blade, killing them in the process.

George had a lot of personal trouble coping with what he did. The two people that raised him were now gone at his own hands. He was now a murderer. George became a lone wanderer unsure of what to do now. He tried talking with friends that would help him and would travel around, going to far off places to seek any kind of help he could get such as deep into the mountains away from the woods he usually travels in. George did meet several Pokemon that allowed him to find peace with himself, primarily an Alakazam named Tessero that acted as a sort of mystic psychiatric monk to really help him. The troubled Leafeon was capable of finding some happiness with the time he spent with the monk. George was able to push through a lot of tasks presented to him by the Alakazam and in the few months he spent with him, could truly learn that he still had a place in the world and a role to fulfill despite everything that happened. While it would take him a while to completely get over the fact that he killed his parents and this event would still loom over him, he still tried and push forward and make the best of the present that he possibly can. He soon after departed to the forest where his original home is located.

When George arrived back to the forest close to his original home, he went to his friend Euclase’ mansion because he wanted a place to live for a while and what better place to do that than the home of his best friend. Here is where George went back to pursuing his original goal of wanting to be a painter, using the main different art tools Euclace had stashed in his Mansion. During his time here, George was soon informed by Morrigan of islands called safe havens, which acted as places that no human could reach due to being magical in nature. George was curious about these now so he bid Euclase Adieu for the time being and rode on Morrigan’s back while she flew to one she was most familiar with. Once they arrived, Morrigan left George to introduce himself to the locals which he gladly did so. He even found the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon guild headed by a Gardevoir. He contemplated joining for a little while, though for the time being he was allowed to rest there for being a friend of Morrigan. One morning on this island, George had encountered an Eevee he found washed up on the beach. Once he woke it up, the Eevee told George that his name is Jeremiah and apparently used to be a human just like George. George, feeling sympathy for the young boy, decided to help the little Eevee who was only 8 years old by acting like a father figure to the young boy, now feeling responsible enough to do so unlike with the last child he had.

### The Boiling Haven Arc

The story starts with a scene where 3 Dark Types are walking around a city at night, drunk off their asses. Ones a Scrafty, ones a Krookodile, and the last one is an Absol. Before they even knew what hit them, they were attacked by a group of fighting type Pokemon who, with their superior fighting prowess, knocked them all down before taking their fainted bodies away to an unknown location. Cut to a scene from the Krook’s POV where he looks around and is forcefully tied down to some strange power nullifying chair against his will. He hears the screams of his teammate and is forcefully dragged into a circle in front of an indecipherable dark figure. He looks to his side to see his Absol friend as a lifeless, motionless husk. He wasn’t dead, just…No one was home. Afterwards, we hear the screams of pain from the Krook, followed by heavy, concentrated breathing. The only phrase heard is simply, “The vermin shall be weeded out.” Cut to the title screen. The Boiling Haven.

After this tense segment, we cut to a scene which juxtaposes it. A cherry blossom Leafeon named George riding on an Altaria (Named Terrea) with his Mightyena girlfriend (named Sarah). They were heading to the Boiling Haven whilst admiring the view from Terrea. They landed outside the city limits, as flight wasn’t permitted within the city with certain registrations and guidelines. And so, they started to explore the city and had a fun time. But whilst doing so, they learn more about its inhabitants and the name of a certain Espeon named Angelsleuth who acted as a sorta Superhero for the Haven. George was shocked to learn that she’d been killing criminals recently and started to ponder to himself how someone could be so ruthless to people who potentially had children to look after and were simply caught up in a shitty situation.

Sarah shrugged, somewhat understanding of the Espeon’s point of view though also agreeing with George that she was taking it a little too far. They stop worrying about it as they decide to go to a nightclub together and have a little fun. This was part of their many travels and they were enjoying every second of it. At the club, they meet a Zoroark named Lilith who they chat with and poke fun at each other. The three of them (Terrea was off doing her own thing) got drunk as the sun fell into the dead of night and they all wandered around woozily into the night. That’s when it happened, they were jumped by multiple extremely powerful pokemon. Sarah and Lilith both seemed to struggle to fend them off, but George was somehow able to keep up with them relatively tamely. Though the sheer numbers did seem to overwhelm him, that is until none other than Angelsleuth comes onto the scene and helps George fight them off. Though she was able to help, some of the captors who were kidnapping Lilith and Sarah got away with them while George and Angel fended off the rest of them and took them down. George is astonished that Angelsleuth was here and Angel was even more impressed with George’s fighting abilities, but they both agreed to worry about that later. Right now, they had a Machamp to interrogate.

Angel starts to beat the fuck out of him with George just watching and gulping. Torturing others…certainly wasn’t his thing. Angel asked the Machamp to tell them who he and his gang were working for multiple times. In spite of everything, all of the pain she dealt out and suffering she caused to him, she wasn’t able to get anything out of him. George tried a different approach in appealing to his empathy, asking why he was doing this and if he just had something like a family that he needed to feed. The Machamp spat in his face…nothing was working. Angel sighed. This was a lost cause. Angel believed that this Machamp is not one she should murder, so she simply calls the police on him and his cohorts. It seemed the case had gone cold for a little while, so they had to wait and form a plan.

The morning of that day leads to George and Angelsleuth talking about what they were gonna do. Angelsleuth revealed that she was actually a blind vigilante who had an exceedingly enhanced psychic omnidirectional sense which allowed her to see things in a large radius around, which allowed her to scope out the mons who were trying to traffic George, Sarah, and Lilith. She forms a plan that she would use this sense to track down the next dark types they could be targeting, as she notes that they’re seemingly only tracking down these types of Pokemon. George would get Terrea in on this so they could help with tracking them down. But…as they discussed the plan, Angelsleuth brought up how she would brutally kill the man up front in charge of all of this, which George objects to. This gets them both into a heated debate where George talks about his past with Angelsleuth lashing out at him, saying some people truly can’t be redeemed and are merely dogs that deserve to be put down, bringing up the likes of vicious serial murderers and rapists as people deserving of death. George says that they didn’t deserve to die, just needing to be locked away in a cell forever, which prompts Angelsleuth to slap him across the face and say to him that once this is done and over with that George should just get out of “her” city. George had to accept these conditions as he knew he needed to continue working with her in order to get his Girlfriend back and solve this ever looming mystery. So…Angelsleuth would be killing some of the folks.

Cut to a scene where we see Lilith and Sarah being brought to the whereabouts of whoever is behind all of this.  They were in a large chamber, locked behind chairs with many other dark types.. They scream and beg but to no avail. Lilith would be the next one brought up to the ritual circle. She notes that all she sees are the red eyes of the individual who’s doing all this. She squirms and struggles but as she does so, the man stops the ritual and seemingly tilts his head in the darkness. He asks, “Wait…what is your name, child?” Lilith raises an eyebrow. The man seemed genuinely interested in her. She asks him in a confused voice what he means and this scene cuts to black, going back to George and Angelsleuth

During this time, he prepares himself and spars with Angelsleuth constantly while laying low so they aren’t found out until the next night. George would read in the paper how there seemed to be a mass amount of Dark types going missing and how the police should be investigating it. Angelsleuth waves this off, as even the police were under the hands of whoever was doing all this. Bringing it up with them wouldn’t make them investigate it further. The reason they were willing to arrest the Machamp is simply because he’s not very high on the latter and thus wouldn’t really pose a problem by doing so.

Later that night, George and Angelsleuth rode Terrea around who was only slightly fluttering around the city. That’s when Angelsleuth finally managed to sense a kidnapping in the distance. An Incineroar, though he was doing his best to fight against it, was beaten and being transported off by several Pokemon. George nods at Angelsleuth who…doesn’t return the favor and she commands Terrea to move in the direction they were going, staying just barely out of range as they won’t be spotted. They were taken out of the city limits and into an abandoned warehouse. George looked at Terrea and got off of her, telling her to stay put while they checked inside, as she certainly wasn’t powerful enough to deal with the insane stakes George and Angelsleuth would have to deal with. Angelsleuth used her immense radar sense to check out what was inside the warehouse. She didn’t sense any life, but she did start to “feel” a weird, giant hole in the ground. She and George cautiously walked into the warehouse and looked around. Angelsleuth still felt Terrea outside and it was calm as ever. Then, both she and George stumbled upon the massive pit that she felt outside. Angelsleuth thought it was odd that there was seemingly no one around, but it was all cut off when she finally felt something…something stomping the ground with immense force, coming towards the two of them. It was…a Mega-Tyranitar?! George and Angelsleuth looked around for the trainer only to not find one. This creature then roared in a feral rage and the Eevees got into a fighting stance. Angelsleuth realized that she was likely duped. Several other Pokemon came onto the scene and both George and Angelsleuth  had to fight them all.

It was a setup to lure them into the heat of battle as the man who gave the order was hoping they could finally take down the Espeon who was being such a pain in his side. Despite the Pokemon’s best effort however, George and Angelsleuth were able to fight the lot of them very well, but the Mega Tyranitar proved a true problem as it roared a hyper beam into the sky, completely eviscerating the cloud formation that once covered it. They fought and they fought and they fought…and they lost, and were captured. They both woke up tied to chairs with their strength nullified right next to each other. They started to talk more about their lives and how everything led up to the people they were that day.  Angelsleuth goes into her story…she was once a vigilante who also thought like George, or at least similarly anyway, in that she didn’t want to kill anyone…but then she saw it. Something happened to her sister that she wouldn’t describe. It was truly awful and horrific in every conceivable way. That's when she saw red and started to believe that certain people. True criminals who have permanently damaged lives and have done some of the most disgusting things one can conceive of deserve an instant death. George goes into detail about Izumi…how he saw her lifeless body hit the ground as his sharpened tail pierced through her body. He killed someone. He ended a world, plunging them into nothing more than eternal darkness. Even though she was a serial killer who gaslighted and raped him, he just couldn’t fathom the idea of ever taking away the privilege of life from another being. Of having a world become nothing more than endless darkness for the rest of eternity. He also shared his stories in his belief in redemption as well, but despite all of this, Angelsleuth wouldn’t budge. What she saw happen to her sister pretty much permanently put her in this deranged state of mind. George sighed, not sure what to say. All they could do was worry about what would happen to them as they were tied up next to each other. He does bring up how he hopes Terrea is okay.

It turns out she was! See, George and Angel were actually tied up in a room with a window next to it, and when Terrea was left outside, she became extremely nervous when she saw Pokemon of all shapes and sizes come and drop down for a seemingly huge ambush, so after a while, she mustered up the courage to go check the place out only to see it swarming with guards. So, steeling herself some more, she decided to stealthily create distractions and diversions to trick the others and she would check all the windows before actually going in by herself. This paid off as she found them here and now. George was happy to see her and Angel was only relieved. Terrea went in and untied them both, tearing off whatever the power inhibitor things they had wrapped around them. She then flew them out but not without trouble. One of the guards took notice of them and Terrea, Angel, and George had to form a plan on what to do next as they were now being chased. Angel and George were both still pretty exhausted from the last fight, so they suggested that Terrea should just book it and hopefully escape out of sight from the rest of the mons. Terrea agreed and started to push herself to the limits as she flew away with multiple Pokemon tailing after her. She was able to hide in a nearby forest with them searching everywhere, with eyes in the sky, powerful noses, among other things trying to track her down. But despite all this, Terrea narrowly escaped with the two Eevees riding on her back and furiously flying back to the city, only fluttering about when she reached there. She brought the Eevees to where they were before and they all huffed and puffed, exhausted, but with many questions on their minds. Though mostly…How the hell was there a Mega-Tyranitar with no trainer around? That seemed odd and very conspicuous… However it was, there were still more problems. Angel didn’t know where the other dark types went, and Terrea didn’t see either. They essentially hit a dead end for that night. They were tired and worn out, just…not really having the capability to do anything. So they called it quits for that night…

However, there will be a scene which cuts back to the night before with Lilith and her Captor at wherever all the dark type Pokemon were being brought to. The man would finally reveal himself to her, and only her. He was…also a Zoroark, but of the Hisuian variety. Having a dark brooding exterior though when walking was doing so with a regal and proper finesse. He walked around Lilith, studying her from head to toe, looking…enamored. He simply asked who she was, but she was confused afterwards. He asked her demandingly again to tell him, and she stated it. He pulls her off from the ground and pats her off as she’s exceedingly worried and confused. She raised an eyebrow, curious at this man's behavior. What was actually happening was this man actually went to the nightclub she was at the night before for…explorative reasons. When he saw her dance and at one point flirted with him, he felt enamored and was flustered with a complex mix of emotions he wanted to decide later on. After much contemplation, he asked his cohorts to kidnap her and bring her to him directly, and so, here they are now. He plainly states to her, “Well, it’s just…I never met anyone quite like…you before.” Lilith then knew exactly what was going on. He was into her…not because of who she was, but because of her body. Also, them both being Zoroarks seemed to help as well. She believed she could take advantage of this fact, first and foremost, as she always knew how to use her body and personally manipulate others with it. This man left himself wide open. She returned with a fake smirk and cheeky glare, “And…I’ve never met someone quite like you either.” She circles around him, “How…interesting.” They both locked eyes. The Hisuian didn’t quite know how to react to this situation. But he was enamored by her quick wit and charm no less. See, indeed, this man had a hatred for Dark types, and he would perform a ritual which would sap away their power and life force from them and collectively add it to his own, but Lilith…was different. He didn’t know how or why, but he could just sense something in her. Something that reminded him of himself, perhaps? Whatever the case, Lilith knew she could use this attraction to her advantage. Though, unbeknownst to both the Zoroarks, there was a Gardevoir watching both of them. A shiny Gardevoir named Hex who was one of the Hisuian’s closest cohorts. She looked on in awe and confusion as her…business partner was taking an attraction to the very thing they both swore to destroy. However, she didn’t want to intrude, but she let the red flags raise at what she was looking at, and so they did. Lilith finally asked the Hisuian, “I…don’t think we’ve been properly introduced. I’m Lilith. What about you?” He stared at her, not really getting the feelings he felt regarding her at all, and just constantly questioning why. But he was already thinking of solutions. Perhaps this could be the one. The *one* dark type that could be righteous, only as long as she renounces her dark form and becomes like him…then he could potentially be with this…beautiful woman for the rest of his life. These are the only thoughts that came to mind. He was about to say it. Say his name…

…But then it cuts back the next day to Angel, George, and Terrea. Angel was doing research on suspicious cases around the town and discovered there was an incident last night involving a gang filled completely with dragon types which were somehow wiped out by a mega sceptile, who is mega-evolved even without a trainer for some reason. Angel knew this had to be tied to the Tyranitar they encountered last night, so she and George decided to investigate it. Apparently, the police had caught a culprit that they believed was…controlling the mega-sceptile and he would be appearing in court the next day. And so Angel went to this court case while George laid low, talking to Terrea about the warehouse they went to and the puzzling nature of it that they were unable to really uncover the mystery of due to them being completely exhausted that night.  Angel would be in the courtroom, listening to the defendant and the lawyers. The defendant was a meek Raichu and the case was moving in the direction of him not being involved at all and just being in the wrong place at the wrong time, however, Angel found this rather fishy and decided to stalk the Raichu later that night in her disguise. She brought George along as well. Said Raichu was talking to a strange shiny Gardevoir and Angelwas listening closely using her psychometric hearing. The Eevees attempted to stay out of range of the potential psychometric power of the Gardevoir. They were talking to each other about holding up their ends of the bargain and this caused Angel to raise an eyebrow. Whoever this Gardevoir was, she seemed high profile with how she was speaking and acting. Then, the Gardevoir teleported away. Not towards Angel and George, thankfully. Angel explained to George what she said and told him the plan. And so they jumped in and tackled down the Raichu. She asked him who’s paying him and who he’s working for. He was scared, acting a lot more meek and less resilient than the Machamp before. Angel tried to be brutal with him to force him to answer, but George stepped in to play good cop. He tried empathizing with the Raichu, asking if he had a family, wife, kids, or something, and…the Raichu actually responded, saying that he knew where they lived and was threatening them. Angel used her psychometric vision to feel if anyone was in close proximity. She focused as hard as feasibly possible to make sure no one was there to listen. She said that the coast was clear, and that he could tell them what he knew without fear, as she promised that they would protect his family. George reassured this point. They could move him and his family to somewhere safe until this whole case was done and over with. He sighed, finally saying it. The name of the man behind it all. He was a Hisuian Zoroark named…Solomon Elson.

“...Solomon Elson.” It cuts back to Solomon talking with Lilith.

Afterwards, the Raichu told them about Hex Ggenta, the crazy shiny Gardevoir that was threatening him and his family in the first place. He just said that she was the one distributing this odd substance that was forcing the Pokemon to Mega-Evolve into an uncontrollable, deluded monster who could only be held down with the use of shock collars. He stated how they were unable to return to their original form once they were in that state and that the Mega-Sceptile they were keeping was already stolen and taken back to its original location. Angel noted that if she ever sees any one of them, she’ll be sure to put it out of its misery, with George objecting to this statement. They then get into another ethical argument regarding this with Angel stating how it was the right thing to do. They were literally irreversible monsters who needed to be put out of their misery. George retorted with the idea that his boyfriend Max may be able to actually reverse the effects of whatever drug was being used on them, as he was a masterful biochemist. Angel will bring out the idea of what if he couldn't, no matter what, then what would George do. George was stunted by this. Sure, they were uncontrollable rabid dogs, but…they were still living creatures with their own lives and experiences. George simply turned away. Angel will note bluntly how in time he’ll realize the importance of making the difficult choices. That him killing Izumi was the “Objectively Correct” thing to do, among other things. George sighed, and was left time to ponder this. But that wasn’t the main issue at hand, so they went back to talking about what they knew. Solomon Elson and Hex Ggenta…it was research time. But first, they would go to the Raichu’s family and tell them what was going on and to lay low like the good samaritans they are. Same with the Raichu himself. He told them that Hex and him simply met in a dark back alleyway and she gave him the cage with the Mega-Sceptile and they would meet again tomorrow night after his court meeting which would indubitably end in a not guilty verdict. She told him that she would instruct him to do more hits later as he was a useful tool. Though now that he was reassured that George and Angel would protect him, they came up with a plan where when the Raichu met up with the Gardevoir, that they would follow her and see where she’s really working. This plan was set in motion, but first, George and Angel would have to do more research on Solomon Elson and Hex Ggenta.

And so Angel would look up and do in depth research on both of these names…nothing appeared for Solomon Elson, however, Hex Ggenta did have some records tied to her. An old article regarding something about an old research building that blew up…killed her little brother in the process, with a gang of dark types involved. Then she somehow went missing. Both Angel and George could take a gander at her motive with working with this “Solomon” person. But there was another thing…Angel…recognized the name of the gang that was involved in this building’s destruction. She went back and into a corner and started to get immense PTSD. George went up to her and asked her what’s wrong, but she pushed him back with an immensely powerful psychic pulse as she only repeated in a low pitched, haunting tone: “She was Squirming…squirming…squirming…squ-squ-squ-” As she did so, George was just…terrified, and looked on the computer to learn more about this gang…

…It was just as he thought. They were murdered by her. All of them were brutally beaten and…torn apart by her. The first time the city heard of Angelsleuth murdering others. To further George’s astonishment, they weren’t blown to bits by fighting type moves or fairy type moves. No.

Somehow, some way, despite being completely immune to psychic type abilities, the autopsy reports showed that they were ripped to shreds by…Telekinetic moves. That’s right, Dark Types, a type normally immune to psychic abilities, were completely at Angelsleuth’s mercy while she was using them.

One who was barely alive said that she didn’t even have an item to allow her to negate their immunities. She just walked in, and through sheer force of will, just ripped them to shreds with psychic powers in one of the most gruesome scenes the police had ever seen.

Whatever these dark types did must’ve awoken something fierce inside Angelsleuth. George knew that she was already far, far, far above average compared to most Pokemon in terms of power, but to do something like this, to seemingly break the laws of reality with psychic power for one night was unheard of.

Then he read about what they did to Angel’s sister…or an Eevee he assumed to be Angel’s sister, anyway…

…

Needless to say, George now understood how Angel did it. What came over her in that one moment to boost her power to levels even Legendary Pokemon would fear must’ve been an indescribably intense emotion. Like…literally indescribable. What she was feeling then boosted her power beyond all comprehension. A one time burst of fury so intense…so concentrated…perhaps it tapped into something primal, and not in the Groudon and Kyogre type sense, but rather even before them…something fundamental to the existence of Pokemon themselves. This power was in her grasp for but a minute before wearing off. Never to be used again.

He thought about it…what if that was Tyrone in that position, or Sarah…or Max…

Would he want to kill these dark types…? To have their very existence ended forever…To have their worlds taken away for the rest of eternity…?

…

“Squirming…Squirming…Squirming…”

George looked towards Angel with a melancholy expression, and then looked back at the screen, reading over and over again what this gang was willing to do to young children…

“Squirming…Squirming…Squirming…”

George sighed, turning the computer off…

He doesn’t know.

The next day, Angel and George sparred some more, with Angel noting how fucking powerful he really is. Like…he’s definitely above average when compared to most Pokemon. In fact, he seems to have a latent ability that even he didn’t really take notice of. Well, he has always thought it was strange how he was able to beat Izumi after training for only a few weeks, and his seemingly natural talent with battle as he was helping her solve the case was also interesting, along with a few other things like being able to easily keep up with his Jolteon pal and other highly skilled warriors and…yeah, now that he really thought of it, he was kind of a monster at fighting, and he would only get stronger the more he worked with his Espeon friend. Well…”Friend” as she still seemed to fucking hate a lot about him. He comments about this and how he’s not sure how to feel about it. Angel tells him that his power he has, he has to use for good. To protect others, not just the ones he loves. That he’d have to use these abilities for good or else he’d live a life of evil. George retorts a bit to this, saying that he loves protecting others but he sort of wants to take a break from all that and just live happily with his girlfriend. Angel shakes her head and scoffs at this, giving him two maxims: One, the happiest people aren’t always the best. And that the only way for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing. By not always being on the case and letting evil fester around the world is an inherently bad action. He sighs and simply nods, not entirely sure how to respond to this. Angel simply tells him to think about it and walks off to prepare more for that night’s meeting

This…reminded George of something. We get a flashback to his past as a human when his parents told him something similar. The people that molded and treated him to be such a good child at the expense of himself. To be loyal, kind, submissive. All that jazz. “Defend others.” They say, not wanting their son to make the same mistakes they did. Just be a perfect, kindhearted child. It also seemed to be a bit in his nature to just be a good person. A combination of this nature and nurture made him into the good person he is today. However, it was at the cost of his own mental health, which only started to fester as the years went by. Max helped a bit with this, teaching him to be more carefree and wild, which improved his health, but…still, years of being forced to be the person he is didn’t really help. And now that brings him into the present day as he sighs, reflecting on the past. “Max…” He thinks to himself. He should call Max. He needed some reassurance in these times. And so he did.

Max and George exchange pleasantries and George…didn’t really go into specifics of what was going on, just that he and Sarah were…far apart at that moment. Max says he hopes things work out for him and teases him a bit. That’s when he introduces George to a male Gardevoir that he hired as a bodyguard for the house. He needed some company to help of course. Max explains that he told this Gardevoir, named Jayden, about George and that the reason the former human always wanted to be a femboy was actually because a male Gardevoir he met in his youth helped him and protected him at one point, giving him a flower afterwards. George was just embarrassed that Max actually told someone else about this, much less another Male Gardevoir and this scene just plays out adorably. Max and George laugh while Jayden just smirks and rolls his eyes. George missed his friend, and was pleased to meet Jayden even if he seemed rather reserved. Before Max leaves, he gives George one last push of encouragement to get done what he needs to, to always stick to his beliefs and whatnot as the good person he is, and George nods, now with some newfound confidence. With this, George and Angel sparred some more, with George getting really serious now. They had to finish this, once and for all.

Later that evening, Angel, Terrea, and George had very, very, very carefully followed the Raichu who was in cahoots with Hex, who was also surrounded by guards. They talked to each other about another potential hit he might have to do later, with Angel using all of her concentration and focus in order to listen in on what they’re saying and whatnot. Then, Hex and her guards walked away, to which George and Angel nodded at and began following her closely. They were making their way through some underground tunnels stretching throughout the city which even went out of the very limits. Man these were fucking long, but after enough trailing, they did it. They found the underground base which was manufacturing this drug that was forcefully mega evolving Pokemon. There were…a *lot* of Pokemon there manufacturing this drug. Like, a fuck load, and George and Angel were unsure if they could even take them all on, even in spite of their overwhelming power. They knew that the police wouldn’t get involved, as they were being hired, manipulated, and paid off by this Solomon person behind the whole operation. Angel used her immense psychometric sense to “see” all the Pokemon there and…yikes, there really were a lot. She sighed again, and her and George went with Terrea out of the tunnel, realizing that it’d be suicide to go in there with that many Pokemon around. They’d have to think of a way to stop all of this…

…But when they came out of the tunnel, they were stopped by a Zorua in the streets who somehow knew who George was. He was only a kid, and explained to George that…Lilith was still alive! And was hiding somewhere in the city. George was enlightened to hear while Angel was extremely skeptical of this. The Zorua explicitly stated that he was given orders by Lilith to tell them and gave them the coordinates to Lilith’s position. George and Angel talked it out and he said that she had immense psychic awareness. They shouldn’t be afraid if it is a trap. She complied and they went to wherever this hideout was. They got to the door and someone asked what’s the password (Oh yeah, the Zorua told them this as well. The Password is “The Witcher Returneth”. But as George was about to say this, they were cut off by none other than Lilith herself coming to the door and waving George and Angel to come on in. Angel found this fishy…but her psychometric vision told her that this was indeed the real Lilith. No illusions or other shenanigans were going on here. And so she and George joined Lilith to come down. Lilith hugged the little Leafeon and kissed his forehead, as she and the other dark types had heard of his and Angel’s endeavors to attempt to save them and was proud. This underground part was just brimming with Dark Types. Lilith explained that these were all gangs coming together to rebel against and hopefully stop whose behind all the human trafficking and the drug trade. George asked her what happened and she said she escaped after manipulating Solomon enough. Explaining that he was a creepy Hisuian Zoroark with a weird fetish for her in spite of her dark typing. Not only that, but she knows the location of Solomon’s base! All was going according to plan and all she had to do was lead all these dark types on a crusade to beat the shit out of whoever is behind all of this along with all his cohorts. However, George and Angel state that they found the woman behind the drug trade and where her base of operations was located, and thought it was better to take that out first. You know, destroy the empire from the bottom to the top. Lilith and her army of men discussed this. They all nodded and agreed. One of the dark types comes up to George and says, “This is one of the guys who were tryin’ to solve the mystery? Man, he looks like someone I’d pick on in High School.” Lilith promptly pushed him away with a shitload of force. “This guy could beat the shit out of you. Shut up.”

“Havin’ fun, are you sweeties?” This ceremonious reunion was cut off by this piercing voice, coming from none other than Hex herself, who had a massive army behind her. “Seize them!” George and Angel were followed…shit, they found out where they were. Angel thought her trail was perfectly covered, but she guessed that she somehow slipped up. Oh well…now they had to fight. Hex and her men released a shit ton of Mega Evolved monsters and Lilith and all the dark types and other mons of the gangs started to fight back with all their might. THIS IS A TOP TEN ANIME BATTLE! George and Angel do a lot of the work in fighting these beasts and Angel is even able to deal quite a bit of damage to Hex, but sadly, they were just…so overwhelmed by the power of all these monsters. Though, they sort of lost, they ultimately did do a lot of damage to Hex and her army of megas…but the reason they only sort of lost was because Hex got away…with Lilith. George and Angel would’ve fought her off but they were too preoccupied with dealing with all the Mega-evolved Pokemon. After the fight was over, there were bodies everywhere…Just, so much death and destruction. George and Angel looked around to find Lilith, only to see her gone. “No…” George said, panicking and panting intensely as he saw all the destruction around him. Only a few other dark types survived, which he tried to help patch up along with Angel. But the ones left were still gravely wounded. One of them on the last strings of his life said, “Please…find her…a-and destroy them for good.” George and Angel both took a deep breath. They could feel it. They were in the endgame now.

…However, they wouldn’t be able to save Lilith after all. In spite of all the Zoroarks efforts, she had been killed by a rival gang to Solomon as she was being forcefully brought over by Hex. Hex was able to escape, but she only came back to Solomon carrying Lilith’s dead body, saying how mournful she felt when it happened. Solomon looked on in anger and fury as he saw the dark type he thought he could “fix” dead on the ground. He and Hex talked about what they were going to do now. Hex stated that she still had plenty more Mega-Pokemon she could use, but her base of operations was found out. She’d need Solomon’s support in order to stop them from raiding it. Solomon obliged, looking down at Lilith’s body. Aside from the absolutely abhorrent ideas he had regarding her body, he thought it was a little…fishy looking. He looked back to Hex as she walked away and was about to teleport. She was…shaking.

He said, “Why are you shaking, Hex?” in a demanding tone.

“Hmm? Oh what! It’s been a ridiculous and stressful night, Solly! Why wouldn’t I be?”

He stared back at Lilith, and looked up again, fury in his eyes, “It’s just…odd is all. You seem to usually be able to handle yourself very well, and yet…” He glares at Lilith, “...She comes up dead. You have enough strength to fend off the body, and yet you were just…what…ambushed? And she was just killed in the process?”

Hex raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms, “Oh come on! What are you implying? I’m crazy but do you think I’m crazy enough to go up against YOU!?”

In the blink of an eye, Solomon rushes up to Hex at blistering speeds, grabbing her by the throat, “Yes, I do, in fact.”

She tries to teleport, but the tension and fear she had made her lose her focus. She’s only able to choke out the words, “S-Solomon-you-you don’t want…don’t want this. If-kill-me…War…Betrayal…Deal.”

Solomon’s eyes ignited with fury, “You…You killed her! She was the ONLY good one I ever found and you fucking KILLED her! Why?” He slams Hex to the ground, causing it to crack. “WHY?!”

Hex could barely speak but did get out the words, “Because…This wasn’t part of the deal, asshole! You betrayed our whole system, saying that a single dark type had even a shred of good in them! Think about what they’ve done to you! Look at what they did to *me*! And you were being manipulated by one who ended up betraying us! Whoopdey FUCKING DOO!”

Solomon yells in fury, as he was about to hit Hex with a massive Shadow Claw, but Hex was just barely capable of mustering a dark pulse which shot him back, but didn’t really damage him. She got up and ran off with Solomon attempting to pursuit, however, he was interrupted when a Mega Gengar showed up and locked him into the battle. Hex’s cohorts had found her and were now trying to stop Solomon. She was able to escape and send a message with her phone to all of her team that the deal with Solomon was done as he tried to attack and kill her. Solomon was able to beat the Mega Gengar with…relative ease and sent a message to his cohorts about what Hex had done.

And guess what? Angel heard all of this.

Now Hex believed that Solomon wasn’t worthy of his position on top of the ladder of power and wanted to take it from him, however, this wasn’t gonna be an easy task, and now she had two vigilantes she had to worry about as well. She rationalized that she needed to take Solomon out quickly first and foremost, as his power would only grow over the next few days to the point where he’d potentially become unstoppable and destroy her and her forces in the process with ease. She didn’t want to do this…but it seemed to be the only choice she had here as the Vigilantes wouldn’t be able to do it by themselves and obviously she couldn’t work with the police directly as a lot of them were Solomon’s pocket or just being paid to be kept quiet. War was the only option.

Now Angel and George had a plan. As Hex and her forces started to build and rally against Solomon’s they would use this opportunity to see them hopefully destroy each other and this massive war between the gangs could finally end once and for all. So George and Angel waited while Hex brought her forces and gathered them all around Solomon’s base. Some of her forces actually rebelled against her, as they believed they couldn’t be with someone who would disobey direct orders, while people on Solomon’s side actually decided to join her army, believing he was an idiot for betraying the cause they tried so hard to work for by loving and wishing to mate with a dark type, among other reasons. So, after a while, both sides essentially had their own armies which were fairly evenly matched. Hex then marched her army to Solomon’s hideout, with George and Angel following along the way. The two of them start to go on big speeches at each other. Solomon says he’d never forgive her for what she did to Lilith. She retorts that she’d never forgive him for what he was doing with a dark type, and they battled. Solomon was overconfident,  believing that the power of his army along with his own might he gained from sacrificing so many dark types would be enough to take Hex and her legion down. And so they started fighting, and it was insane. George and Angel looked in awe. George wished he could stop it…but…he knew that this was a full on war, so he mournfully watched all that happened.

After a long and drawn out battle, Solomon’s forces were all drained, but so were Hex’s. Solomon was exhausted from the fight and Hex had seemingly escaped elsewhere. Solomon gloated to himself, believing he achieved victory…

…That is until George and Angel stepped in for one last climactic fight. And indeed was it climactic. Fists were thrown, illusions were cast, and crunches were sharpened as this final fight raged on. While Angel was held back and pushed down, George was able to seemingly quickly adapt. Solomon goes on a big speech about all his true motives and whatnot about how power was a gift and how he wanted to make a new world where only the truly righteous will thrive and all the bad genes will be weeded out. George calls him batshit insane like Raiden does to Armstrong and fucking beats the shit out of Solomon once and for all. In spite of all the power Solomon gained from sacrificing Dark Types, George was just too adaptive, too quick, and too strong for him to handle. George pushed him back and had Solomon on the ropes, down and nearly out for the count. He was about to kill him…Angel got up and with some of her strength left, encouraged George to do so. This is a man who killed so many people he knew and loved But then he thought back to Izumi…to what he was taught earlier in life about murdering others and the value of life…and about the encouragement Max gave him…

…and he didn’t care.

He took the responsibility of life into his own hands and killed Solomon, ending him once and for all. For all the suffering he’s caused, for all the people he’s manipulated and killed, for his absolutely insane sense of self-righteousness that would obviously never go away. Solomon says something like how he always knew George had it in him, and his lifeless corpse lying there gave him flashbacks to Izumi. He broke his vow to himself to never take a life again.

Afterwards, he simply walked through Solomon’s hideout to find all the Dark types being tied up…

And he saw her.

Sarah was still alive.

He released her first, and she could hardly believe it was him. He cried into her and she hugged him tightly while crying intensely as well. The scene fades to black as they release all the other dark types and go free. Afterwards is a beautiful scene with police investigating everything that happened with George and Angel sitting next to each other on the rooftop of the building they’ve been hiding out at. Sarah was there as well. Angel says that he needed to do it. Solomon was too far gone, after all. But not everything was destroyed. Hex was still out there and George had gained a substantial amount of power and abilities on this journey. But Sarah retorts and looks George in the eyes. She saw a man who killed someone who was down. Someone who captured and emotionally tortured and murdered several people around her, but still someone on the ground and helpless. She…needed some time which George gave. Angel…thanked George for helping her. After seeing him murder Solomon and some of the intensity it caused, she started to question her own morals as well. George looked down and around the world, seeing all the corruption and devastation Solomon had caused by abusing the system.

Sarah doesn’t hate George by any means or think he’s a monster, just she was shocked that he was willing to murder someone else by the end of it all. George goes to talk to her about all this. She kisses him on the head. She and him both then go to call Max again and George explains all that happened. Many tears and kind words were shared between all three of them. Afterwards, Angel jumps away, still defending the city she loves.

Sarah and George look from the rooftop. She asks him, “So, what’re you gonna do now, George?”

George looked around the city and off into the horizon. He thinks about all the power he’s gained and simply says, “Well, I guess I could try…helping the world.” And it cuts to black. And that ends…The Boiling Haven story arc.

## Extended Lore

### Gaining The Sword

George's supposed sister pulled him into this Omniverse called "Ears of Destruction." They were now in the MLP-verse. George looked around confusingly, "Hey, where are we! Who are you? What's going on?" Mynder chuckled to him, "You're going to be safe here, George. You were forgotten and completely erased from the history books in that old realm you were in, much like Peter Parker at the end of No Way Home. George tilted his head, now even more confused, "Th-that...Nothing of what you just said made sense." Mynder sighed, "It doesn't matter. What matters now is that you're here, and you must save the Omniverse." George blinked multiple times. That was...a heavy order of the small little Leafeon. "How do you expect ME to save the...OMNIVERSE?! Like, that's a pretty heavy order!" Mynder turned towards the forest, "Oh, you won't be alone of course. Come with me." She started walking to the forest. George reluctantly walked with her. She said to him, "There's something in this forest that I needed someone to wield, however, there was no one in the entire Omniverse that could fit this criteria, so I decided to look into another Omniverse to find the proper candidate. And that's how I stumbled across...you. The reason I call you my brother is for abstract reasons that you wouldn't understand now, but perhaps you will once you amass enough power." George...started to understand a little bit more, though he was afraid to question about that last part, "So, basically there's something only I can wield for some reason and you took me to this...Omniverse in order to use it?" Mynder nodded, "Correct. And do not worry. Your friends in the original version of the Omniverse you were in were all transported here, safe and sound. So their won't be any other heartbreaks." George sighed with relief, "Oh thank Arceus...hahah..."

They stopped. "We're here." Mynder said, stopping at a well. At the well, George saw a strange boy wearing a Golden Owl mask. George raised an eyebrow to him, but bowed in courtesy anyway, "Hi, my name is George, who are you?" The man turned to him, tilting his head. He gestured his right hand out, as his left was holding a a golden, magical looking staff, "Ah, so this little cute salad cat...fox...thing is the one who's gonna wield The Sword? Hah! That's adorable." George immediately became flustered and Mynder rolled her eyes, but nodded, "Yeah, believe it or not, he's a completely pure-hearted entity who only wants the best for the world, much like you and the staff." The boy chuckled, "Well alright then, let's get the ritual started then." The Cherry Blossom boy raised an eyebrow, "Ritual?" Mynder nodded, "Yeah! Both of you just stand in the middle of this magic circle both him and me drew and close your eyes." George shrugged, looking at Hunter, who just nodded, "Don't worry kid, nothing bad will happen. I've tested and asked several good acquaintances of mine if this would work, and all of them said yes 100%. Nothin' to worry about!" George let out a never chuckle and gulped. It's not like he really had much choice here, so he went along with it. He closed his eyes and started to focus. Mynder started to chant some strange words in a bizarre language and the circle started to glow. George almost peeked, but he didn't want to ruin the incantation. She said, "By the power of will to destroy all blight, endow these worries the power of perfect LIGHT!" She yelled to the heavens with that last line, and George and Hunter felt something emanate in their mouth and left hand respectively. "You can open your eyes now, "Mynder said, looking proud of herself. George and Hunter did so when they got The Sword and The Staff respectively. They looked in awe at these heavenly weapons. Mynder Chuckled, "Those are some of the most powerful weapons in existence. George, you have The Sword, and Hunter, you have The Staff. Both of you have the power to protect and save the entire Omniverse."

George looked in awe. He did it. He received The Sword.

### What Next?

George looked at Hunter then back to Mynder. "So uhhh....now what?" He said, an eyebrow raised. Mynder chuckled, "Well...whatever you want! I just wanted to get you both here as you could get these weapons. What happens next...is up to you!" George nodded, and Hunter just shrugged. George said, "Well...okay then, cool!" Mynder continued, "Those weapons are incredibly powerful. Hunter, with The Staff, you can easily travel across universes and even to other universes with a mere thought, and George, that sword protects you from everything, such as attacks on your mind, body, soul, and even the very idea you represent! It's really cool!"

George's eyes opened wide, and he was kinda going nuts. To be bestowed with this much power on little ol' him...It was mind boggling. Hunter said, "Well, I think I'm gonna just head back to my own universe and defeat this ancient eldritch god trying to merge my world with the human world. Uhh...George, wanna come with?" George hmphed in thought, "Uhhh...sure, could help with that, though sounds like a pretty hefty task..." Hunter nodded, "Well...it is. In fact, it was said that no magic in our world could stop it and we just had to accept our fate, but then Mynder here opened a portal and gave me this weapon which, well...just feeling the power brimming through it, yeah, it certainly has the power capable of beating it. But it will only fully complete the converging process in like, a year or two so...we got time to chill and prepare beforehand."

George thought hard about it, but then he nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I kinda wanna go back to Max to tell him how I'm doing right now. I kinda did just vanish on him, ahahah..." Hunter nodded, "I assume this MNax of yours is a friend. Maybe even a boooyfriend perhaps?" George blushed, but actually nodded, "Y-yeah, actually...hope that doesn't bother you..." Hunter shrugged, "Not at all! Two of my best friends are Lesbians and I'm just what the fuck ever about it." George chuckled, perking up to the masked owl boy, "Ahahah...glad to hear..."

Hunter laughed too, holding his staff out, "Hold on...I'm...gaining information from this weapon...mhm...yep....Ah, okay!" George tilted his head, "What is it?" Hunter smiled and nodded, "This is extraordinary! This staff has a mindlink sorta thing which links minds with another person so it can take me to places in the multiverse they've been to without needing to be there myself!" George smiled, "Wow! That's wonderful and very convenient! Haha..." Hunter nodded multiple times, "Yeah, of course. So, wanna go visit your booooyfriend, gay cherry boy?" George sighed, mumbling, "Man...you too would get along swimmingly." But then he inhaled and giggled like a girl, "Hah...nevermind, yes, of course."

Hunter put the staff in between his legs, and he padded the back portion of it, "Well, hop on board then, George! Let's goooo!" George agreed delightfully, jumping on the back of The Staff, Sword mounted on his back. Oh yeah, he can control The Sword so is just sticks to any part of his body. That's nice. Then Hunter said, "Alright, then think about where you wanna go, and...GERONIMO!" George immediately thought of going in front of Max's house. Hunter charged an immense amount of magical energy into The Staff and there formed a portal to a really big and fancy house next to a beach. They zoomed to this location. And they both arrived safely in front of the house. George smiled, and Hunter looked in awe, "So, THIS is where you friend lives? Jeez, meet the right people sometimes, I guess." George chuckled again and nodded, "Yup, I'm home."

And so he went up to the house and rang the doorbell.

What happened next...would change him forever.

### God Has Betrayed Us

Max? Oh don't worry. He was fine. When he heard the doorbell ring, he looked through the hole and, as usual, jumped with glee. He opened the door with a SLAM and tackled George down again. George squeaked and squirmed, "OH C'MON MAX! H-HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GONNA DO THIS?!" Max laughed, cuddling the blossom boy. Hunter was laughing in amusement at this display, saying, "Ah! I like this guy already." George mumbled under the weight of Max, "Ugh....I-I knew you would." Max was glomping him for about 30 seconds straight before letting him go. George patted himself off and Hunter shook his head, laughing along the way. George was blushing and...doing something else. Max had a big goofy grin as he looked at George and the friend with him, "Ah, someone new I see! Lemme guess, he's a human who can understand us throughh some magic reason again?" Hunter nodded, and stuck his hand out, "Indeed! I'm Hunter, not at your service. Think I'm done with that life for now." Max chuckled, "Yeah! I get that. Max is the name for a more "formal" introduction, well, as formal as you can get with me anyway. Both of you come inside!" George nodded, smirking, and Hunter shrugged and went in as well, seeing the beauty of this huge house of his.

Hunter was impressed, as Max had stuff that he saw brought from the human world back in his own local multiverse, such as the TV! Which he was very glad to see, as he remembered watching stuff with Luz like Monster Slayer Academia back home. He was wondering if that was in this multiverse, or at least something like it. Max and George were sitting down at a dinner table to his right. Max said, "C'mon, sit down with us boy! We got business to discuss!" Hunter nodded, taking his mask off out of courtesy and sitting down next to them. Max xontinued, "So...it's nice seeing you again George and it's nice meetin' you, Hunter but...we've kinda got a problem..." Hunter raised an eyebrow, "What is it?" Max went on, "Well...just come to my lab and you'll see." So the Jolteon jumped off the chair and waved for George and Hunter to come with him into his room and down into his secret lab. They did so, and what they saw was a huge laboratory with many strange chemicals and inventions running through practically every pipe and tube. But Max was focused on leading them to a specific monitor with a blinding white light on it showing some sort of ratings.

"See that?" Max said.

George looked nervous, "Y-yeah, what is it?"

"That..." Max said dreadfully, "...Is Arceus' might planning to rain down on us."

George looked shocked and terrified at that proposition. Hunter just looked confused, saying, "Uhhh...Who's...Arceus?"

## AU Version

This will cover the original version of George when he was still a Leafeon with green leaves.

### Finishing High School I guess

I was on the final question. My eyes darted around the Biology classroom. I was one of the only ones still taking the test. With a sigh, I filled out the letter D on my answer sheet. I took the test with me up to the front desk and turned it in, walking to the back of the classroom, carrying my backpack. I sat down on a chair away from the other students and took out my phone and turned it on, going to my photo gallery. I browsed through all the pictures I took, including doodles of Pokemon I did in class, random family photos, and several pictures featuring me with my girlfriend, Jennifer. I started to feel sad looking at the pictures of her and I. Just a blank stare as many worried thoughts started to fill my mind was all I could give.

```
I was interrupted from my mourning by a hand that grabbed onto my shoulder. This startled me. Right after came a voice. “Hey, George!” I turned around to see none other than  Max.

```

“Whatcha doin’?” I look back at my phone and let out a solemn sigh. Max glances over my shoulder to see what I was looking at. “Oh, right…” I nodded my head slowly.  “I’m very sorry about that. I do hope she’s found soon.”

```
   I shrug “Yeah...It’s fine. I just- I don’t know what to do. If she really is completely missing like Krystal then I feel that, perhaps, someone might be after me.”

```

Max crossed his arms and nodded his head, starting to pace around, “Yeah, that possibility does seem very likely. Especially since they were both so close to you. I’d go mad if both of my girls suddenly went missing and I’d want to find the culprit immediately! Ugh, I can feel ya, George.” He patted me on the back. I look off into the distance for a bit. Max continues. “But for now, I think it’d be best if you try to keep your mind off of it. You never know, she could still be out there after all. It’s only been two days. I wouldn’t get too worried about it.”

I contemplated this for a moment. Sure, it’s only been two days, but it still seemed too coincidental since they were both so close to me. But in the end, I decided to comply with what he said. No use wallowing around when she really could still be out there somewhere. I turned back to him “Y-yeah, maybe you’re right, Max. I-I suppose I’ll just have some faith that she’ll be found at some point and...not think too hard about it for now.”

Max responded to this by...patting my fluffy, long black hair. “That’s the spirit, George! Keep some hope up for now. I’m sure it’ll pay off.”

I chuckled but felt a bit embarrassed. “Aheheh. Yeah, and...hey! Just because you’re taller than me doesn’t me you gotta treat me like a little brother or something.”

He laughed, “It doesn’t just have to do with me being taller, it also has to do with you being cuter.” My face became red, and I just turned away from him awkwardly.

Oh Max. Why must you treat me this way?

Max chuckled again. “Don’t worry, George, your kind and sweet attitude is the reason you got friends like me in the first place. I’m just teasing you.”

I roll my eyes at this, with my face still blushing a bit. “Y-yeah, sure…”

Max patted my back. “Ah, but let’s change the subject. High school’s finally over for both of us. Whaddya plan on doing, George? You got a long ways ahead of you.”

I ponder for a moment. I hadn’t really thought about it that much. I look to him. “Well, I suppose I could just continue drawing and doing commissions for people...that can make me some money. I was also planning on moving out with Jennifer and maybe we can even start a Pokemon journey together…well, you know. If she’s found.” I look down momentarily, but then shake my head right afterwards. “R-right...don’t worry too much about that for now.” Max nodded happily. I continue “What about you, Max?”

He ponders for about as long as I did, then faces towards me. “I guess I could continue researching the genetics of Pokemon with my dad. I was always interested in that sort of thing. Recently, we’ve been trying to do some pretty crazy stuff, heheh.”

This piqued my interest. “What kind of stuff?”

He looked at me with a grin. “Oh you know...stuff involving shapeshifting. Like what Ditto does. We’re currently studying its structure and seeing just how it does it. How it gains or loses mass to change to a different form. How it shifts it’s DNA to become something entirely different. That kinda stuff. Pretty dang cool, huh?”

I chuckled nervously. “Y-yeah, that stuff is far beyond me. I am just a simple artist, after all. Good luck with your research, though.”

He nodded. “Thanks, and good luck to you with your drawings.” I smile. We continued casually talking about random things, mostly pertaining video games and whatnot.

Soon enough, the bell would ring. Max and I exited the classroom together. We walked off the school campus and Max saw his dad with his Rapidash waiting for him. When we walked up to them, his dad offered me a lift to my house. I complied. Max came over often enough that he knew the way.

While we were riding the Rapidash to my house, we saw several different Pokemon along the way. I looked in awe at the scenery as I held on tight to the horse Pokemon. My eyes took it all in, every last inch, adoring what they were seeing. Many trees, wild Pokemon of all kinds, all under the gorgeous rays of the sun in a nearly completely clear sky. It was a great day.

This breathtaking scenery that my eyes were constantly taking in was quickly interrupted when seemingly out of nowhere, a Venomoth swooped down and came really close to us, causing me to panic and yell loudly. I fall off the horse. The Rapidash stopped and came back for me.

Max looked concerned. “Are you okay, George?”

I got up and dusted myself off a bit, chuckling awkwardly. “Uheh, y-yeah, I’m fine, just got spooked by a...Venomoth.” A hint of pity for myself came with that last word.

Max started to laugh as I just stared at him with a very awkward smile. “Oh George! Get back on already.” I roll my eyes and do just what he said.

After a long ride, we make it to my house in the middle of a humble neighborhood. It was a fairly small, one story house but still big enough to for me and my parents to live in comfortably. I thank Max’s dad for the ride and Max just gives me a fist bump. I walk up to, unlock, and open the front door with my keys.

My parents were sitting on the couch, watching TV. They both look over to me and smile. My mom got up and so did my dad. She patted my head. “We’re so proud of you George. Good job making it through the year.” My dad follows suit and we get into a big group hug together. Even our pet Eevee, Tyrone, joined in by jumping on my head. It was very warm and heartfelt. I felt relieved of a lot of the stress I was going through, happy even.

After this, we decided to watch a celebratory movie together on the couch. It was about a Bisharp and his gang of rogue warriors who traveled through space defeating ancient evils in a quest to find the Holy Blade of Arceus. It was called “The Star Samurai”. Yeah...even my parents are into stuff like this.

In the middle of the movie, we suddenly heard the doorbell ring at around 6 PM. “Wonder who that could be?” I asked. I paused the movie.

My mom came up to the door. “Not sure.” She looked through the door hole, and looked back with concern. “It’s officer Jenny.” I was startled. The police? Here? Did they find Jennifer?

“Open it.” I say, a hint of desperation in my voice. She opens the door and Jenny comes in.

“Hello, there. You’re the O’Neill family, correct?”

My mom nodded, “Yes ma’am. What do you want?”

The Policewoman came in slowly. “I have a few questions for an 18 year old kid named George, who I assume is this young lad here?” She said, pointing and looking at me sternly.

I gulped. I already had an idea of why she’d be here, so I went along. “Is this about Jennifer?”

She nodded, crossing her arms. “Indeed. Since you two were close and considering the fact that the last girlfriend you had went completely missing with us being incapable of finding her, we have reason to suspect you.”

My dad quickly got up in response to this. “That’s bullcrap! My son would never do something like that!”

Officer Jenny retorted. “Hey, I’m just doin’ my job here, pal. I didn’t get a warrant to investigate for nothing. I’ll be out of your hair if you just give me a few minutes. You guys can even help your son prove his innocence.” My mom sat back down on the couch next to my dad. They both nodded reluctantly, agreeing to what she had planned. I was admittedly shaking at the thought of going to jail for something I didn’t do. Though I went on anyway, knowing refusing would likely make me look worse considering he had a warrant.

I nodded as well, and spoke. “Alright then officer. Ask away.”

Jenny took out a camera and turned it on. “To preserve evidence, I’m gonna have to record this conversation. Don’t worry, this is completely confidential.” She placed it on the coffee table aside from us, and pressed the record button. “Alright, here we go. First Question.” I waited in anticipation. I knew I had to be completely serious. My heart started to beat quickly. I’m not the best at talking to others, so if I say something incorrectly then this could lead to me to being even more suspicious. It was now or never. And so, the first question came. “Where were you on the night before your girlfriend was last seen?”

I tried to answer confidently. I couldn’t show too much fear. “I was in my room studying for my exams.”

My parents nodded in agreement, with mom backing me up. “Yeah, we even checked up on him constantly and he was using his PC for studying purposes.”

The Policewoman nodded and thought to herself for a moment. “Alright then, now Bobby and Martha, are you sure your son was sleeping on that same night?”

My dad nodded “Yes! In fact, we saw him go to sleep that night, miss. He also seemed very well rested when he woke up.”

Jenny nodded slowly, shifting her gaze between the three of us. “Hmmm...But he still could’ve snuck out.”

I sigh softly, coming in on the conversation only saying, “L-look officer, I understand you need to do this but you’re...really missing an important part, and that’s motive. I had no reason to somehow make either of my girlfriends go m-missing. We loved each other very much, and I have so much proof of that. Nothing too bad happened between us, either. We’ve been able to keep a fairly steady relationship. If you want, I can show you evidence. I-I swear.”

Jenny immediately responded “Alright, then do it.” I got up and walked to my room where I put my phone, turning it on and pulling up the photos. I walked back and started to scroll through them as I showed them to the Policewoman.

She looked through them all carefully, including the recent ones from 3 to 4 days ago. She started to get lost in deep thought. My family and I stared at her for what felt like a minute. Sweat was dripping down my head. She looked towards me, and spoke up, “Alright, you know what? You’re off the hook. You all seem like great people. Apologies for bothering you guys.” She then looked down to me and patted my head Why do people love doing that? “We promise we’ll keep looking for her, sport. In the meantime, stay safe.” Officer Jenny got up off the sofa, took her camera with her, and walked towards the front door. “Have a good night, you folks.” We waved our goodbyes and she walked out the door.

I sighed in relief. “Well, glad that’s over with. She wasn’t as pushy as I thought she’d be which is good...If anything she seemed to let us off easy.”

My mom nodded in agreement. “Yup, ugh...George, are you okay?”

I responded. “Y-yeah, I just...hmm...Jennifer…”

My dad stepped in. “Look, we’re all very worried about her, son. The only thing we can do for now is hope, alright? It’s only been two days. She’s out there somewhere. It’s better to have faith that she will be found.”

I nodded “Y-yeah...a friend of mine at school told me something similar...I just...hmm...You know what, yeah. I’ll still worry about her but it’s very possible she could be found soon. I’ll try and not worry about it too much for now.”

My dad grinned happily. “Exactly, George.”

My mom then continued. “Yup!...So anyways, back to the movie?”

I smile. “Yeah.” We then return to getting comfy on the sofa as I press play to continue.

After we finished watching the movie, I went into my room as my parents went to their bedroom. My room still had all the pictures of Pokemon I drew cluttered about the walls, mostly consisting of grass types. I jumped onto my chair, got onto my PC, and started to play some video games for a while.

At around 10 PM, I stopped playing games and switched over to looking through the many pictures I’ve drawn before in the past, as a way to reflect on the year as a whole. I stumbled upon a recent one I drew for Jennifer. It was a Braixen, her favorite Pokemon. I glared at it, and sighed heavily. “Ugh...Oh man, Jennifer. Please be safe. Please don’t end up like Krystal. Just gotta hope for the best.” As I moped around, Tyrone would come into my room and jump into my lap, showing clear concern for me. I smiled, beginning to pet him. “Yeah, that’s the most I can do. Remember that, George.”

After this, I decided it was about time to rest. I got out of my chair, changed into my pajamas, and got into bed. Tyrone jumped in with me. I petted him on the head some more. “Night Tyrone.” He nuzzled me and I giggled. He went onto the pillow next to me and got comfy. I put the blanket over my body and rested my head against the big, soft pillow. I started to drift off slowly into rest, as did Tyrone. Soon, I was completely in the realm of sleep.

…

…

…

I awoken. My eyes started to open. I yawned, observing my surroundings. I wasn't in my house anymore. I was lying on my back against an oak tree in the middle of a forest for some reason, with trees all around and not much sunlight coming through. “H-huh? Where am I?” That wasn’t the only problem. I looked at what was usually my hand, only to see a brown paw. “I...Wh-WHAAAAT?!” I immediately spring up, observing myself in panic. My body was a yellow color, I stood on all fours, and I had pink leaves growing off of it in several different places. “N-no! THIS CAN'T BE! I’M A-A-A-” I panic, hyperventilating, but soon, I was finally able to form the sentence I wanted to. “I’M A LEAFEON!”

Chapter 2: Dissonance

I look around, still panicking. Then, I got an idea. “Oh, I must be dreaming!” I turn around back to the tree I rested on. I walk backwards a fair distance away from it, and start to run towards it at full speed. I got closer and closer, the distance shortening between me and it in a small amount of time, until...Wham! I bash my head right into it. “A-ah! Why didn’t I wake up yet!?” I repeat this process two more times. It clearly wasn’t working. I fell down on my side, dizzy. “O-oww, okay, fine...M-maybe I’m not dreaming…” I got up and came back to my senses.

I turn around to look at myself again, and let out a heavy sigh, realizing what this meant. “Oh man...How could this happen to me? Who did this? Why? And...how?” I have a recollection from the previous day when Max said that he’d be studying more on the structure of Ditto and how it shapeshifts. “Maybe that’s how? Did Max do this? No, he wouldn’t...Did someone steal his research, then? But again, why use it on me?” I put all these questions at the back of my mind as I begin to worry about something else. “Oh man…And my parents...They’re gonna be so worried about me…”

I shake my head and ponder for a moment, considering my options for what I could do. “I think it’d be best if I try to find my home first. Perhaps...hmm...I could meet up with Tyrone and tell him what happened. Yeah, that’d be good, then through that we might be able to somehow communicate to my parents that I’m George. Of course I’m gonna need to convince him but that shouldn’t be too hard considering I sound exactly the same as I do when I was a human...Huh, well I guess that means that Pokemon just sound like they’re speaking normally to each other as we do. I suppose that makes sense...but anyways...” I look around, taking in my surroundings one bit at a time. “Hmm...I’m gonna need to know where my home is first to be able to get there…” My eyes darted around the vast, open forest, which was filled with life of all different kinds. “Yup, I’m gonna need to ask around...yay...”

I start to make my way through the forest. I gulp, looking around every corner in fear of what could be out there. I knew there were many dangerous wild Pokemon that could attack me at any time, with me not knowing how to defend myself in the slightest. I would just have to hope for the best as usual.

Outline

After George panics, he bashes his head against a tree testing to see if this is the real life, or if this is just fantasy, caught in a la-, to which it isn’t

He is confused and depressed, wondering who did this to him. He thinks about the possibility that it was Max, considering he was talking about testing the properties of how Ditto shapeshifts. He thinks that this is preposterous as he had no reason to do so, but it was all he could think of. Perhaps it was someone close who stole Max’s research? But then why would they do it? Could it be related to his missing girlfriends? Did this person do the same thing to them, or are they completely unrelated? He would keep these questions in the back of his mind, as he continued to walk through nature.

He was very worried and cautious. He was in completely unknown territory as he saw many wild Pokemon around him, but was too afraid to talk to them. He didn’t even know where he was going at that moment, so he thought about getting the courage to ask another Pokemon for help with directions back to his home. He felt like if he met up with Tyrone, his Eevee, that would be useful since he’d find a familiar face that could definitely help him.

He tries to do this a few times, but all the Pokemon he met weren’t sure as they’d all seemed to live in that general area for most of their lives, making it difficult to get help. He kept trying though, not wanting to lose hope.

As he travels deeper and deeper into the forest, he notices less and less Pokemon around. He feels scared and alone, thinking he’s going too deep and should turn back. But as he did this, he heard a cry for help. It sounded like a little boy. Worried, he immediately ran in the direction it was coming from to see the commotion.

What he saw was a Raticate threatening a Ralts. He jumped in to then try to tell the Raticate to stop. Incapable of convincing him with words, the Raticate would soon attempt to bite down on the Ralts with a fire fang. George panicked, and in the heat of the moment, he was capable of moving fast enough to push the Ralts out of the way and take the Fire Fang himself. He yelled in absolute pain and told the Ralts to run, to which the little guy complied. The Raticate let go of George and spat out what he bit down, angered at him for letting his prey get away. George was down on his side, severely damaged. The Raticate was admittedly impressed by George’s bold move, so he decided to leaf the Leafeon be to see what nature does to him.

The Ralts would come back to see George bleeding and burned severely. He would be terrified and tried to find a way to heal the leafy b0i, so he went out into the forest to find any form of berry that could heal him. George felt his life on the line, as he only thought how ironic it was that he might lose his life giving himself up for another person, like he always did. As his life fades, he starts seeing flashing images of pure red eyes for a few split seconds. They disappeared a moment afterwards, and George would only wait for his life to completely fade.

However, when he saw the Ralts come back carrying two freshly picked Oran berries, he knew this wasn’t the case. The Ralts fed George the berries and he would be healed up. The Leafeon thanked him very much and they exchange greetings and names. The Ralts name was Jayce. They talked for a bit. Jayce told George how he was separated from his family by poachers who attacked them and he ran away as fast as he could. When he went back trying to find them, he realized that he couldn’t and had to travel around alone, getting lost deep in the forest and ending up in the situation George found him in.

George explained that he was just as lost as Jayce was, saying that he woke up in unfamiliar territory for some reason, trying to hide the fact that he was a human turned Pokemon. George also said that he was a pacifist who didn't know how to fight and that's why he tried to talk the Raticate out of interrogating Jayce. He made up a story that he was a pet looking for his original owner's home in a city but did so poorly due to the fact that he’s not much of a  liar at all. Jayce still believed him and told him he sadly didn't know the way. George told the Ralts that he'd try to help the young boy find his parents while avoiding danger as best as they could. This shows that he puts the wants and needs of others over himself.

Chapter 3: Courage

The Ralts would ride on George’s back as the Leafeon attempted to find the place where Jayce’s parents were. George and Jayce would encounter a few dangers along the way and attempted to constantly stay hidden from them. It was tense and George wasn't very accustomed to this, so he tried to adapt.

Soon enough, they'd find their way out of the dark part of the forest and found the last location of the Ralts’ parents. The only thing they found was a broken leash that Jayce recognized from the poachers, and a huge crater in the ground, seemingly caused by psychic energy. This meant that they likely broke out and went looking for their son. Perhaps have scenes where George gets cut and scratched up trying to escape the dangers they'd likely come across.

George started to get tired. He hadn't traveled so much before. George tried to find a good shelter for him to rest. He found a very large tree with much shade and decided to rest underneath it. It was in the middle of the day, around 3 PM at this point.

Jayce worried for George. The young boy wanted to stay with his Leafeon partner and sat next to him. They start talking to each other about quite a few things, giving each other's information and learning a few things. George will ponder if he should tell Jayce that he used to be a human, but decided against it for now, thinking Jayce might just think he's crazy. For now, George tried to make some stuff up and, due to his lack of experience in telling lies, was doing pretty poorly and only confused Jayce more than anything.

When it started to get awkward, George noted that he was feeling thirsty, and his wounds mended themselves up already. Jayce nodded and the both continued on traveling. As they went on their way, they were capable of finding a path that Jayce recognized. He knew this area well since he traveled up and down this path every day. He said that there is a fairly clean lake near this place as well as his family’s home not too far from here. George insisted that he should find Jayce’s parents first but Jayce convinced him otherwise, saying he should get a drink to refill energy and that there was a possibility that they were close by the house anyway.

George traveled in the direction Jayce pointed him in. George took this time to begin worrying again about his parents and their reaction to his absence. He then remembered to stay hopeful, since he’s been gone for only a day, thinking of when he’d finally be able to return to his home. Problem is, he had no idea where he was, nor did he have an idea of who or what did this to him, if there was a way to change back, if his girlfriend was found yet, or what his parents’ reaction would be when they find out he’s like this.

He shook his head at all that for now. His primary concern was Jayce...Still, he couldn’t stop thinking about how worried everyone was. Jayce showed concern for George, noticing his constant twitching and slightly sloppy movements, and asked if he was alright. George apologizes and told Jayce not to worry about him. Jayce decided to agree, but is nonetheless still afraid, wondering what’s up with his Leafy friend.

As they continue on, they are suddenly ambushed by a Seviper, who snatches Jayce up and taunts George.

Before the Seviper hurts Jayce, George decides to challenge the snake to a battle. The reason he does this is because he knows that, due to the event with the Raticate, he can't simply use words and would rather himself lose his life than Jayce.

After the Seviper released the Ralts, the Leafeon told Jayce to run back home as quickly as he can. Jayce refused at first, wanting to stay with George, but George was insistent, saying how the Seviper could easily kill him as well. Jayce decided to comply in the end.

Afterwards, it was only George and the snake. George was visibly scared. He never had a real battle like this before, and if he lost, his life would be lost as well. The only thing he knew about Pokemon battling was what he learned in school, and even then, that was with a Pokemon. He never actually was the Pokemon itself. Still, he tried to apply what he knew here as best as he could.

The fight began, and it was intense. George started off by attempting to avoid the snake's attacks. He was barely able to dodge, and soon enough, he was hit, which pushed him back. George's pain tolerance was still very low, so it was hard for him to deal with this. He kept trying to avoid the snake, and went in for a tackle, which hit the Seviper directly, but didn't do much. George was holding his full power back, being fearful and shaking while trying to keep all the confidence he could. This went on for a little while, and in the middle, George was capable of using razor leaf, which, while surprising, wasn't very helpful against the snake. Soon, George took a LOTTA DAMAGE and was wrapped up tightly by the snake. While being wrapped up, he fainted from the damage he took.

While he was unconscious, he had a vision. He was in his house. A human. When he tried to exit through the door, he's pulled by painful, fiery whips through his window and onto the ground outside, and he began to drown in water. He saw the red eyes from last time he was in a similar situation, and woke up in a bed right afterwards.

Chapter 4: Dependance

He was inside a house. It was small and wooden, with a few beds close to each other and a kitchen nearby. He looked over to see Jayce, two Gardevoirs (note: one Gardevoir has a shorter cape and darker green hair...thingies. This is the male one), and a very bulky looking Vaporeon. They noticed he got up, and explained to him that the Vaporeon had saved him and brought him here. Jayce explained to his parents all that happened, and George's actions made them indebted to the smol leaf b0i. They said that they wanted to repay him for his actions. George said that it's fine, but they insisted. He decided to mention how thirsty he was, and that he was rather hungry as well. The Gardevoirs nodded and decided to prepare dinner.

As they do this, George and the Vaporeon began to talk. She introduced herself as Izumi. She told him a bit about herself. She's a wandering traveler who goes around wanting to fight and protect others. George told her he was looking for a way back to the city he came from. Izumi said that she knew the way there, and it was fairly close. George didn't mind. He wanted to get back at some point and told her the same thing as Jayce as to why he wanted to do this.

George, Izumi, the Gardevoirs, and Jayce all have Dinner. The Gardevoirs say that George and Izumi can come back anytime they want. George feels really tired after all that happened on that day and wants to rest. It was 7 P.M. at this time. George and Izumi talk for a while with each other about many things at this time such as hobbies and their individual lives. Again, it was somewhat awkward due to George constantly having to make stuff up. Izumi chuckled at his derpiness and the way he acted, already saying he’s cute and stuff like that. They decide to go to bed soon with George staying up very late pondering on what to do next.

He dreams a Ninetales dream. The specifics? Eh, NOM ON TAIL DREAM :O

He wakes up scared, looking around, and realizes he’s nommin’ on his Leafy tail like the gae qt he is uwu

To Be Continued...

### Meeting Vincent and a strange Bat Creature...

(Note: This was an RP with friends and I will be keeping it with the same format as before.)

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

It was a very warm and soothing day within the forest. The Sun shined brightly with little to no cloud interference whatsoever. Amidst all the life that thrived within the forest was a Leafeon by the name of George. The Accompanying him was a young Eevee named Jeremiah, a young boy George had recently met on his many travels that he wanted to take care of and protect, acting as a sort of father figure. The Leafeon felt like he could take up this responsibility and wanted to prove that he could be a good parent. He also felt sympathy for the Eevee, as the little fox-dog was stuck in a similar situation as George himself. The part of the forest they were roaming in was deep and quiet, somewhere a normal traveler could easily get lost in, however, luckily for both of them, George frequented this place very often so he knew the ins and outs of where to go...as well as certain areas that he would have to avoid. It was a calm and quiet atmosphere. The Leafeon was was walking right besides the young Eevee, constantly guiding him around and making sure the boy was close to his side at all times. George quickly accepted how much he'd need to make sure Jeremiah was with him at all times, as the young boy could vanish from his sights. He was quite protective over him after all.

After quite a few minutes of walking - around 4 to 5 - George began to speak to Jeremiah. "So yeah. This is basically my home...I normally sleep at a mansion that belongs to a friend of mine though so you won't have to worry about any dangers getting us while we rest." The Eevee looked contemptly at George, nodding in understanding and looking around in awe. George continued. "I know this can seem quite overwhelming but I want to help you, Jeremiah, since I've been through what's happened to you right now." The Leafeon then stopped and so did Jeremiah. George turned directly to the kid and smiled softly.  "I'll make sure no one hurts you and we'll be safe together." He pat the young Eevee on the head. Jeremiah chuckled and sighed. "Th-thank you...heh..." Seems he was already warming up and trusting the Leafeon.

Euclase/Vesu

The two eeveelutions could hear a melody coming from a nearby place, likely someone behind one of the many trees within this forest. It wasn't quite the beautiful melody one would hope to hear, in fact.. it's a rather mediocre tune played on a flute, truly a beginners work. The general direction of this melody seems to be somewhat more towards the roads, but it keeps the same volume, likely proving that whoever is responsible for this is staying in the same place.

The melody itself seems to be rather calm, but it keeps getting interrupted and repeated. It does seem like whoever is doing this really is training said melody. Given that the source of the melody is close, they could easily investigate who or what is behind this tune.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George's ears twitched as he heard the melody rather clearly. He looked around as the rather curiously. "What could that be?" He said. Jeremiah looked around with him and they both turned to the source of the sound. It was coming from behind one of the nearby trees. George looked down to Jeremiah, "Hmm...should we go take a look?" Jeremiah stumbled a bit, looking rather worried but still saying, "Umm...if you want to...I mean...I-I don't think they could be bad but...you never know..." George nodded. "Mmm, alright then...let's see then...stay close." George cautiosly and slowly went towards the source of the song with Jeremiah trailing behind him rather closely. Soon, after a few footsteps, they would get near the source of the melody to see who was there...

Euclase/Vesu

The source of the melody turns out to be a Lopunny playing on a flute.. a rather mysterious flute one might say. The Lopunny is wearing a black vest and a little magician's hat in a tilted position on top of the head. It seems like the Lopunny hasn't noticed either of the eeveelutions yet, since it's too focused on the melody it's playing.

The Lopunny itself seems to be alone, not having anyone listening to it, yet it seems like there is someone else around as a mysterious presence implies. Depending on how close they are, they could feel said presence getting stronger and stronger.

It feels like the source of this mysterious presence happens to the the flute this Lopunny is playing on. It doesn't require any special powers to realize that.. almost like the flute itself actually wants the two of them to know of it.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

Both the Leafeon and the Eevee could easily feel the presence as they came closer and closer to the Lopunny. George felt rather intrigued. He looked behind him to make sure the young Eevee boy he was taking care of was still there. He simply observed the Lopunny as it played in awe. The presence he felt was alluring, so he kept getting closer and closer with Jeremiah behind him. The Eevee also started to feel very interested in looking more into this presence, so they would simply walk closely and calmly towards the Lopunny, simply watching it play it's tune. While the melody left much to be desired, it was the Flute itself that made the two of them stay and watch, not saying a word as both the Eevee and Leafeon felt it would be rude to speak and interrupt the rabbit Pokemon from playing. George took notice of the rabbits' attire and how well outfitted it was, easily recognizing it as something a classical magician would wear, wondering if he was one or if it was simply a fancy getup. George, for a moment, thought of wearing something like it as well. It may suit him and he hasn't worn actual clothes in a long while. But anyways, they simply continued to listen and be in awe of the strange presence emanating from the Flute.

Euclase/Vesu

The Lopunny simply chuckled before it turned around, only to spot two eeveelutions stand right there. "H-Hey you two. You better not take that flute, it's haunted!" the Lopunny said in an attempt to scare them away. It's quite obvious that his skills at scaring someone are as good as his flute skills. "You see.. if someone else touches the flute, a beast will appear and consume the sun, we don't want that, r-right?" the Lopunny said. While he is clearly trying to scare them, he actually does appear rather nervous. Maybe he just wanted to play his melody on his own?

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George tilted his head in confusion as Jeremiah further behind him. He was a young boy, meaning that an attempt even as poor as the one the Lopunny made to scare him would work. "H-haunted!? A-a beast?!" He said shaking a bit. George stood in front protectively. "Seriously? Is that the strange presence coming from it then?" George looked at the Lopunny somewhat suspiciously but also intrigued. He looked at the Flute again. It wasn't anything too special but it still emanated with that same presence that intrigued both the Eevee and Leafeon in the first place. George was unsure if he wanted to touch it or not. What would happen? Would it be a Trap? He didn't want to take any chances and would only wait for answers first.

Euclase/Vesu

The Lopunny just sighed. "Well, if you two want, I could show you exactly what I'm talking about." he said, before offering the Leafeon the flute he was playing on earlier. "Take it and just let it drop, it'll do the trick." the Lopunny said, not joking around this time. He does seem rather calm however, and not showing any sign of fear or danger. "Don't worry, it wouldn't harm any of us, even if the beast acts like that. It's actually really tame." he added as he showed a little smile on his face. It seems like he actually wanted the Leafeon to do the steps he mentioned.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George gulped. He looked back to Jeremiah and then to the Lopunny in front of him. The Lopunny did seem very sincere after all and didn't seem to mean harm. He also concluded that this might be apart of some magic act considering what the rabbit Pokemon was wearing. "Alright then...I trust you..." George decided to take the flute, soon just letting it drop, awaiting to see what would come of this. Jeremiah was still behind him looking on in awe to see what would happen. He was more curious now than anything but still slightly worried, so he was still cautiously behind George looking at what was going to happen.

Euclase/Vesu

As the flute dropped onto the ground, a quick flash of light appeared before a dark mist escaped the flute, slowly covering the whole area aroudn them with the same dark mist, even blocking out the sun's light.

As the mist finished surrounding the Pokemon, a pair of bright yellow eyes shined through the mist, and stared down upon the Leafeon. "Who dares interrupting my precious rest?" the beast said in a menacing tone, but still staying within it's spot. It seems like it has no intention of attacking.

From within the mist itself, one could hear the Lopunny chuckling to himself.. it seems like he and the mysterious being were the only ones who knew what was going on.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

Both George and Jeremiah were frightened by what was happening, and stepped back as they looked in awe and almost terror at the beast that was before them. George immediately started panicking "Ah! I'm so sorry, that Lopunny just handed me a flute and told me to drop it so I did and then suddenly you came out! W-who...what are you?" George looked around at the ominous mist surrounding him and Jeremiah. While it was certainly spooky, it looked rather beautiful. Neither George or Jeremiah tried to run away but both were certainly in awe and intimidated by the entity that was before them.

Euclase/Vesu

Darkness was still covering this area in the middle of a forest, and the Lopunny just kept chuckling as the glowing pair of eyes continued gazing upon the Leafeon and the eevee. "It seems you do not realize what you have just done!" the voice said in the same menacing tone as it did earlier. Despite speaking in such a tone, the creature in the darkness does not seem to have any intentions of attacking either of the two, as it kept it's current position.

However, this didn't mean that it wouldn't just stop being all angry and such. Nono, our spooky dear friend kept the two in the darkness, likely wanting to mess around with them. Oh poor things, just what kind of trouble did they get themself into?

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George stepped back in clear fear with Jeremiah huddling close to the Leafeon. George was trembling but still got in an offensive stance. He didn't know what he was up against, but he only had a desire to protect the young Eevee besides him, who was shaking in fear. "G-George, I'm scared..." The young boy said looking around at the complete darkness that reigned around them. Neither of them could see a thing except for the menacing eyes before them. George comforted the young boy next to him and looked at him reassuringly. "Don't worry J-Jeremiah. I'll be sure t-to get us out of here safely...I promise." The young Eevee stared deeply into George's eyes and simply replied with, "Okay..." George nodded and turned his head back to the foreboding glowing eyes that loomed before them. "Who...Wh-what are you?!" George asked with a hint a fear in his voice.

What I sight to behold. It isn’t every day that one gets to see an entire section of the forest grow devoid of all light in an instant. Yet, this very instance was set into motion with a simple drop of some sort of magical flute. It was obvious to people who were potentially observing what had happened, but random passerby that were caught in the dark? Well… That’s where a certain Hydreigon, dressed in a torn up trench coat, a black fedora, and a bronze pendant adorned with 8 dull, black gemstones, came in. He was in the vicinity of the amateur flutist and the Eevee family pair, and he had heard the faint noise emanating from the flute. However, he paid no mind. He was busy whittling at a piece of wood, trying to form a smooth, straight, thin pole. That is, until it happened. He, and the surrounding area, were immediately blanketed in a shroud of darkness, blotting out all sunlight from hitting even the very trees that gave this land the title of “forest.” This startled the dragon, and he immediately dropped the piece of wood he was trying to carve. He rose from his sitting position, and frantically began searching around. (What… Just happened!? This couldn’t have anything to do with… No! She disappeared! One of her minions? Yeah… Yeah, that must be it.) The Hydreigon begins wandering aimlessly through the darkness, emerald green balls turning to narrow slits as he scans the area. “I know you’re out there! There’s no point in hiding, so you can show yourself immediately!”

Somehow, through the darkness, he was able to come across a small trio of Pokemon: a Leafeon; an Eevee, likely his son; and a Loppuny, all dressed up in what looks like a magician’s get up, all set up in a suit and tophat. Towering above them, some sort of indescribable… Thing… Billowed up from a flute, which lay on the ground. All he could make of it was that it had glowing eyes, and it looked pissed. He slowly inched towards group, casting a quick glare at the smaller figures before staring up at the main attraction once more. “What… What have you three done!?”

Euclase/Vesu

The creature hidden in the darkness simply chuckled. "Well well, what do we have here--" the beast said, but got interrupted by the Lopunny. "You can't just do that, they likely are about to attack you!" he said, all nervous. Looks like it really was just a prankster's doing. The darkness slowly fades away, and reveals a rather otherworldly being.. some myths and legends may call this beast "Lunala", according to those legends, it is the emissary of the moon and capable of blocking out the light of the sun, a feat it clearly proved earlier.

"Fine, fine, Pyrope. I had everything under control. I just wanted to mess around." the Lunala said in a grumpy tone, crossing the wings and slightly turned away. So much for being the emissary of the moon.

"A-apologize for her behavior. There's a huge difference between her idea of fun and others. My name is Pyrope, and I am pretty sure our dear moon lady over here can say her own name if asked nicely." the Lopunny in magician outfit said, doing a little bow as he said so.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George was startled by the Hydreigon that appeared before them, and responded to his question by saying, "Whatever it is, it can't be anything good!" he formed a Leaf Blade in his mouth, getting ready to attack whatever was before them. Jeremiah was still shook by all this and said, "G-George...please be careful..." However, once the Lopunny intervened and George heard what he said, the Leaf Blade faded away and George just looked at both of them confusingly. "Wait...that was all just part of this big act? Dear lord! We were terrified there!" George turned back to Jeremiah who was still shaking with fear.  "Oh no..." He gently patted the Eevee on the head. "Don't worry...they're not gonna hurt us...I promise..." He gently patted and hugged the small boy until he calmed down. "O-okay, George..." George smiled at him and sighed in relief. He then turned back to the Lunala. "Wow...I've never seen a Pokemon like you before...Can you please tell us who and...what exactly you are? My name is George as this little guy has been saying. His name is Jeremiah." He said, gesturing to the Eevee who was looking away still in a bit of shock. George then turned his attention to the Hydreigon again. "Also...who might you be?"

Euclase/Vesu

"You may call me Noxia, I am more than just your average magician. I can do actual magic." the Lunala said in a less grumpy tone, completly missing the actual point of the question. "You see, I just made the sun disappear, and I could make any of you disappear as well!" she grinned, raising both of her wings as she quickly turned towards the Hydreigon. "My only purpose is to entertain you, sorry for uh.. Pyrope, go tell'em!" she added, while glaring at the Lopunny, who in response just sighs.

"Pardon her unnecessary pranks, she didn't mean to frighten any of you as I mentioned befor--" this time, the Lunala interrupted the magician bunny. Noxia just grabbed Pyrope and dragged him to her, making sure to turn him towards herself. "Pyrope, we could offer a show as apology!" Noxia said in a super exicted voice, while Pyrope just sighs. It looks like he already has an idea of what's coming next. "Sooo.. who wanna see a show never seen before on earth?!" the Lunala continued, turning her head around to make sure she can see the little group of Pokemon.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George looked at Vincent. "Oh, it's nice to meet you Vincent...a rather odd time but still nice to see a new face." Jeremiah was somewhat intimidated by the Hydreigon, but he still looked at him and just softly waved while cuddling near George to feel safe. "H-hi...Vincent..." George patted Jeremiah's head again, and turned back to the Lunala before him. "Wait, Noxia. Did you say you know actual magic? I actually have a magical ability myself, though it is a bit limited in usage...eh, oh well...I could try to show it off to you if you're curious." George then preceded to think about the next question. "A show, huh? I suppose that could be interesting..." He turned to Jeremiah, who seemed to of cooled off somewhat. "What do you think, Jeremiah?" The Eevee looked at him and blinked a few times. "U-uhh...sure...I suppose it could be nice, as long as there's nothing dark and scary..." George nodded. "I wouldn't mind...just as long as you don't...you know, scare the young boy." He said, turning to the Hydreigon. "Oh, and uh...how about you Vincent? You in?"

Vincent Allistor

“Hm… So, you know actual magic, and not just the typical sleight of hand party tricks most other magicians tend to go for.” Vincent gave the Lunala a slight grin as he let that sink in. (Lot of magic users around here, it seems. I’m surprised this is the only one who’s used that for entertainment. Should I…?) He slowly grips a side head onto the pendant dangling from his neck, while simultaneously diverting his attention toward what he could only assume was a father-son duo. (Nah, it can wait…) “Yeah, this is admittedly a little strange, but… Not exactly the worst I’ve had to deal with. Not… By… A long shot…” He takes his head/hand away from the pendant and tries his hardest to make a motion close to clenching a fist… But in the case of the Hydreigon, it just looked like one of the heads was imitating a toddler refusing to eat something. “...You know, I think a show is just the thing I need right now.” The tri-headed dragon turned back toward the Lunala and Lopunny, giving them a quick, energetic nod. “Go for it!”

Euclase/Vesu

The Lunala chuckled, before pulling out a magician's hat out of seemingly nowhere. "Got it~  You see, I can make this Lopunny here disappear right from the face of the earth. No tricks, all magic!" Noxia chuckled, before she picked up Pyrope, who started to flail around. "H-Hey, you promised not to do this one with me!  Not for the next few weeks at least!" the Lopunny shouted around, and kept flailing.. but it was no use, the spooky bat merely needed to cover him with her wing, and as she spread her wing again, he was just gone! It's like he was never there in the first place. "Woosh goes the bunny~" Noxia just smiled, before she did a little spin and showed the insides of the hat, just to make her audience sure that there was indeed no Pyrope left. "As you can see, I can make any Pokemon just disappear. Real magic, no tricks~!\* she said in a overal happily voice. She put the magic hat onto the ground, before turning her attention back to the group of Pokemon.

"Okay, one of you may step forward and put their hand.. or paw, or wing, or whatever you guys use, and try pull something out of the hat. It works, even if it seems like there is nothing there!" seems like Noxia speaks the truth, she is expecting someone to try what she just said.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

Before the show began, George noticed Vincent with the pendant, looking at it carefully and wondering exactly what it was. It seemed...important to the Hydreigon...though he decided he wanted to ask laterso he kept this in mind...as the Lunala performed her magic act, Jeremiah looked somewhat afraid and stepped back a bit after witnessing what happened. "Ahh!" He got near George and hugged him tightly. The Leafeon patted his head again with a smile on his face. "It's alright...it seems they've done this before...I trust them." George then sighed. "Well...may as well I suppose..." He said to himself. He walked up to the hat and carefully reached in with his paw, attempting to pull anything out. Jeremiah was shuddering, hoping nothing bad would happen to him as he did this.

Vincent Allistor

Vincent quietly backed himself into a nearby tree and sat down at the base as the show was starting up. His attention was, as one would expect, mainly placed on the magician and her assistant, as they quite literally worked their magic! His eyes widened when the Lunala actually managed to make the Lopunny disappear! Not just hiding him away from the audience’s view, but completely removing the rabbit assistance from their plane of existence! (She… Was not kidding, was she? Should… Should I be concerned? I probably shouldn’t get on her bad side.) He looks over at the Leafeon, who already volunteered to reach into the tophat, presumably to pull something out of it. The Hydreigon was… Admittedly slightly tempted to do so himself, but he was a bit slow on the draw. A costly mistake in any situation. Casting a quick glance over at the young Eevee who stayed behind to watch, he takes note of the absolute terror the Eevee is experiencing, made evident by his violent shutters. Occasionally looking back over at George to make sure he’s fine, the hydra slowly makes his way toward Jeremiah, settling himself down next to the child once he reaches him. He looks down with an expression of concern. “H-hey… Are you doing alright?”

Euclase/Vesu

As the Leafeon reached into the hat, he could notice two things: First of all, the insides of the hat does seem to have more space than one might expect. The second thing being a rather fluffy ear, likely the ear of the Lopunny that disappeared just moments ago. The Lunala just kept watching the Leafeon, looking with a eager expression in her face and a rather quiet giggle. She sure was excited to see how the other Pokemon around her react to this trick.

"Well, once you start feeling something you could grab on, just pull it right out of this hat." Noxia said in a happy voice, her eyes focusing on the hat as she was waiting for the results.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

The Eevee was still shuddering a lot, taking notice of the large dark dragon that came before him. He seemed somewhat afraid of the creature at first, as Vincent looked somewhat imposing. Jeremiah backed away a bit as the Hydreigon came towards him, but he still tried his best to answer the question asked to him. "W-well...you see, I'm just worried that something will happen to G-George is all...you saw what that giant bat thing did to the poor Lopunny so...I don't know...He's already been through so much that I just...I really hope nothing bad happens...He recently decided to take me with him as a sort of adoptive father and he's all I care about when I lost my original family and...Life" Jeremiah said, then simply looking away into the distance, sighing and shaking his head. Meanwhile, George took notice of the amount of space in the hat. "Huh...yeah, this is definitely true magic...very interesting too..." His paw then felt a rabbit ear. He looked down into the hat and started to tug on it. "Huh, hey Noxia, I think I found your assistant..." He then tugged and pulled it as hard as he could using both paws, attempting to pull the rest of the figure out as best as he could until he pulled the lopunny completely out, falling on his back as he did so. "Gah..." He shook his head, smirked, and chuckled. "Uh...ta-dah."

Vincent Allistor

Vincent simply gave a nod of understanding to the young little fox. “Yeah… Yeah, I could relate. I’ve had some… Painful experiences when it came to important people disappearing on me.” He places one of the smaller heads onto the ground and leans slightly onto it, giving him a slightly crooked stance. He lets out a brief sigh and gives a blank stare at the ground for a moment, muttering quietly to himself. He then looks back at the Eevee, and gives him a halfhearted chuckle. “The two don’t really seem like bad people. At worst, you’re dad will probably disappear into that hat, and return unharmed. At best…” He is quickly cut off by George stating that he found the Lunala’s assistant, followed by yanking him out and falling on his back, which in turn causes him to start laughing again. “Ehehe. Well, that will happen! Goddammit, he stole my thunder!” He enters into another bout of laughter, with a bit more gusto than the last. “Well, that was… That was certainly something… Kinda makes me wish Dopple were here, now… He… He’d probably enjoy this… Yeah…” His excitement seemed to slowly deteriorate as he went on, being replaced by just overall disappointment and overall sadness. His breathing goes slightly shaky, and… Well, his eyes began to shimmer slightly, veiled by his own tears starting to form. He quickly makes an attempt to wipe them away, the forming drops soaking bit by bit into the dragon's overcoat.

Euclase/Vesu

Noxia simply clapped, being all excited and such "Bravo, bravo!  Well done leaf boy~" the Lunala said in a happy voice, before picking up the hat and throws it away into seemingly nothing. "I wish I could tell you all how this works, but I am afraid that I am not allowed to tell my secret, just a magician thing y'know." she simply shrugged.

Pyrope, slowly recovering from his rather harsh landing just looks around a bit, before jumping up.\* "Ta-dah! Bunny's back!" the Lopunny said, trying to match the same excitement as Noxia. "That's just a small glimpse of what Noxia's capable of~" he added with a smile across his face.. although that smile didnt last long, as he caught attention of the Hydreigon's current mood, and approached him. "Hey buddy, something's wrong?" Pyrope asking, slightly tilting his head to the right. He was hoping that perhaps he could help Vincent cheer up. Maybe even without magic.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

The Eevee giggled softly when he witnessed what happened. "Hehe! N-nice job dad!" George got up and smiled, wiping some sweat off his face. He was a bit embarrassed by the landing, but laughed it off. "See Jeremiah? Nothing to worry about~" He went up to the fox-cat and patted him again, to which Jeremiah would chuckle. But both the Eevee and Leafeon's expressions would change to concern for the Hydreigon. Jeremiah got up to Vincent and asked, "Uh...umm...who's Dopple? If you don't mind me asking...it's fine if you don't want to answer but...now I'm a bit worried for you..." George nodded in agreement. "Yeah, same here...you seem like a pretty nice fellow, especially since you comforted my son so I'll be here as well if you want to talk..." George said as reassuringly as he could to the Hydreigon.

Vincent Allistor

Vincent quickly snapped back into reality to find himself surrounded by three of the four individuals who were involved in the show, whether it be active participation or just being part of the audience. All three of them seemed concerned about the slight emotional breakdown the dragon experienced, and were making attempts to try and console him. He looked over at Pyrope, then down to Jeremiah, before finally setting his gaze onto George, who gave confirmation that they’d be there for him. This brought a sad smile to the Hydreigon, who let out a very brief chuckle. “Thanks you… George, I think your son said your name was? If I’m gonna be honest, things have been… Kinda rough, the last couple years. That person who I mentioned earlier, Dopple… Well… This may seem like one of the most ass-backwards scenarios ever conceived by man, but… Dopple is a human… A human child who I took in as my own son! A real chipper kid, I must say, probably the most upbeat person I’ve ever met. He… He’d get excited over just about every little thing, loved meeting new people, and I’d take a bite out of my own fedora if you could catch him without a smile on his face! Never met anybody else like him! Unfortunately… He’s… A bit too naive and trusting for his own good. That… Th-that led to his… That is to say, he’s been… Well, kidnapped… And I’ve searched for over two years, trying to find the bastard who took him from me… I know exactly who she is, and even what she looks like, but I just couldn’t find her! I dunno, she must’ve disappeared with him, or something… Even worse still is that I know she’s out to kill me. I’ve already had to fight off a goddamn Houndoom she sent after me so many times…!” Vincent quickly slammed one of his heads down into the ground, letting out a grunt in frustration. He then takes in a deep breath to clear up his mind, letting it out shortly after.

“It’s got me on edge. Which is why I ended up panicking when she suddenly plunged the area into darkness. I thought it was another of her lackeys, out to deliver my head on a silver platter!” He takes another quick glance around the group, before clearing up his throat. “Anyways… Sorry to just dump that on you guys… That’s not really all of it, but I don’t really want to speak about what I haven’t mentioned up to this point. I was kinda hoping watching the magic show would help take my mind off it, but… Well, you see how well THAT worked!” He shoots a quick glance over to Pyrope, giving the man a slight grin. “You two were spectacular, by the way, that was great!”

Euclase/Vesu

Pyrope simply smiled, before giving Noxia a thumb up.. or well, the closest thing a Lopunny can do to a thumb up, who in turned just bowed. "Thank you, thank you~" the Lunala said, before she too approached the Hydreigon. "I'd offer my help, but I am afraid that I can only do this much. No amount of wormholes can help me there, kinda a first time visitor here. The world sure is weird, nothing like the place I came from." Noxia chuckled. She kinda was amused at the thought of having these Pokemon in her home place. "But anyways, it's not really the time and place to be sad, you'll find your bud~" the Lunala said in a cheerful voice, and swinged her wing once again, revealing a little table with cups of tea. "Woosh, tea for you. If we're going to just talk here, we might as well get comfortable." she just laughed. "After all, standing around could get our two four-legged friends here all exhausted. And of course, my dear bunny friend as well." she added and bursted out in laughter afterwards.

The Lopunny simply rolled his eyes, and sat down. "Good point. Until either of you wants to move along, we could just sit down here and enjoy some talk. With that space bat around, we couldn't get bored even if we tried to."

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

Both Jeremiah and George took in everything that Vincent said. Jeremiah just went up and rubbed his head against the Hydreigon affectionately. "I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your human son...I do hope you find him someday. You have best wishes from me." George sighed, walking towards the Hydreigon as well, simply jumping up and wrapping his paws around his neck in a hugging sort of way. Afterwards, he jumped back down "Same here...and hey, trust me, I've been through some pretty crazy stuff so I believe in you. I hope Dopple is okay..." the Leafy cat-fox looked at Jeremiah. "Do you think I should tell them...you know...our previous lives?" The Eevee shrugged. "If you want...I mean, since he told us all about his past it might be best to let them know now. This would be a good time to tell them since we can now all sit around and listen to each other." George nodded, taking a seat at the tea table and taking a deep breath. "Alright then...here goes...Jeremiah and I..." George stopped for a moment. "Well, we actually both used to be...humans ourselves like Dopple...However, the reason why I transformed was because of this insane Vaporeon who wanted my love so she made me this way....somehow...I actually never learned how she turned me into this though I believe it was some kind of magic but anyways....Jeremiah somehow became this way because well...we're not sure. He just woke up on a beach washed up and I found him this way. It's...quite odd really but...I've been able to take good care of him so far..." He looked to the young fox boy who smiled, jumping on a chair next to George at the Tea table as well. "Yup...and so far he's been doing a good job." George smiled back and sighed. "Yeah, life's been tough but...we try our best to make due with what we've become so far."

Vincent Allistor

The Hydreigon elicited a low chuckle as his attention was drawn toward the Lunala. “Don’t worry about it, Nox… You mind if I call you that, Nox? Anyways… Yeah, don’t worry about it. Even if you could help out… I wouldn’t exactly feel very good about asking for help in this particular situation… That biii… Bi… Probably shouldn’t say that around the little one, now that I think about it!” He looks down at the innocent little Eevee, and enters into another bout of nervous laughter. “A-anyways… Saying she is pretty dangerous is an understatement. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’d be able to take out my dad! Though, now that I think about it, they’d… Probably fall in love with each other or something, if they met, I dunno.” He shutters at the thought, his face visibly contorting in a pained expression. “I would not want her as my stepmother! Then again, my dad’s easily around 30 years older than her, so… I dunno.” He gives off a light shrug as he approaches the newly formed tea table and pulls out one of the chairs for himself to take a seat in, which… As one would expect, he does just that afterwards. “So… A few questions I wanna ask real quick!” He looks over at Noxia with a quizzical expression, complete with cocking his head over to the side slightly. “You… You mentioned something about wormholes and being new to this world… Would it be alright for me to ask just what you are, and where exactly you are from?”

Euclase/Vesu

"Oh my, sure, sure. Lemme just get comfortable. Also, Nox's fine~" the Lunala said as she landed onto the ground. Sure, levitating as a ghost isn't really anything exhausting, but she kinda felt like she should at least try to adapt to her surroundings. "So, you see. I was born as something known as Cosmog, I am sure you people might have some myths and other weird rumors written about it in countless books. I come from a place without any special name, it wasn't really populated. A few humans here and there, Pokemon just like you, yknow the deal. Nowadays it's a huge wasteland with it's own weird rules, nothing like your planet here, but it actually used to be something just as fascinating as your world." Noxia chuckled. It sure was a long time since she had someone to talk about this place. She didn't seem to miss this place as much as one might think.

"The humans had a small shrine dedicated to worshipping me, and I did exactly what I did here, entertain people, mess with them, y'know, just my stuff." the Lunala just shrugged. "Apperently, according to legends I am something know as Lunala, the personification of the moon, the devourer of suns, yadda yadda, lot's of names for me. I prefer to just be known as the magician of the moon, my mission being to entertain all of you." she said with a grin across her face. The mere thought of bringing smiles on the faces of others made her happy.

"Anyways, that's something I probably could've summed up in a single sentence, but oh well. Any further questions?" the Lunala asked, being done with her little rambling about herself.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George nodded, listening to what both had to say carefully, responding to what Victor had to say first. "Yeah...I know how it feels personally knowing someone who is an absolute maniac..." George drifted off, getting bad memories again, but then he shook his head. "Gah...nevermind. But man, it stinks. I would love to help you stop her but I want to take care of my son here and I don't want to put him in any serious danger...I'm truly sorry." Jeremiah nodded in agreement. "Y-yeah...I'm only twelve years old and don't know the first thing about battling or surviving...I'd rather not be put into a situation like that..." George went up and patted him again. "Mhm...I don't know what I'd do without my little Jeremiah...I can't keep losing people close to me..." He sighed, looking upset and down again, but then shook his head. "That's in the past though. I won't worry about it so much now." Jeremiah went up to rub his head against George in comfort to which George smiled. George and Jeremiah then turned and listened to what the Lunala had to say. George Exclaimed,\_ "Ah! A Lunala! Yeah, I've heard that name before, though I never knew what the Pokemon itself looked like. That'd make sense considering some stories I've heard of you." Jeremiah looked in awe at the bat. "Woah, so you're like an alien from another planet?! That's so cool! Is it possible we could ever go there and see? It might be cool!" George nodded in agreement. "Indeed, and it might even help inspire me for some of my paintings. Heh. I am a landscape artist after all so seeing a place like this could be interesting."

Vincent Allistor

(Huh… Cosmog and Lunala. I… Think I’ve heard the names before? I dunno… But they sound vaguely familiar. Emphasis on vaguely, I could just be pulling things out of my ass here.) “Uh… Devourer of Suns? That’s a bit menacing! Especially for somebody like you, I don’t think it exactly fits. Magician of the Moon definitely works a lot better!” He takes a quick glance over at the father and son, nodding in agreement. “I… Certainly don’t have any issues with that. It’d be… An interesting experience, seeing what kind of place your world is! Can’t be tha…” He quickly cut himself off upon remembering something the lunar bat had stated previously. “Well, then again… You did describe the place as a “barren wasteland” which… I dunno how I really feel about that, if I’m gonna be honest.” He gives a slight shrug, then turns his head to face little Jeremiah. “Wow, how fitting! By now, my son would be the exact same age! Fairly certain he was 10 when I first found him. A miracle he was actually able to remember his age at all, considering he was suffering from amnesia. Poor kid… Wait… Wait a second…” He rapidly shifts his gaze between leafy cat-fox and the… Well, not leafy cat-fox. His eyes began to widen as it finally sank in. “You guys… You guys were… You used to be… H-humans? D-did I hear that right, I’m not making anything up here?  At one point in your life, you two were humans!?” At this… He went completely slack jawed, mouth agape and everything. (That… That’s a thing that can happen!? When!?)

Euclase/Vesu

The Lunala was quite shocked at what the Leafeon said as well. "W-Wait, this stuff just works in your world? Ow, you folks sure have weird rules here. Do humans evolve into pokemon here?" Noxia just chuckled, although she was quite intrigued. Is this part of their world? Or was it some magic trick? If it really is latter, she certainly would want to learn how to do exactly this, seeing as she could do all kind of silly things with that. "Is it magic? Can you teach me?" Noxia suddenly added in all of her excitement. She'd do anything to expand her list of magic tricks.

Meanwhile, Pyrope was just sitting there, listening to the group talking, just drinking his tea. He didn't even bother asking, Noxia and Vincent pretty much asked everything he wanted to know, although he didn't seem as shocked as the other two were.  Maybe because he was used to all those weird things thanks to traveling with a Lunala? Who knows.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George chuckled and sweated, putting a paw behind the back of his head. "Y-yeah, Vincent...you heard it correctly. Both me and Jeremiah were humans at one point..." Jeremiah nodded in agreement sadly. "Y-yup...pretty convenient I was able to meet George considering he's like me in that regard. Human to cat-fox...thing..." George chuckled. "Yeah, you'd actually be surprised...Seems around here turning into a Pokemon is a common occurrence...I've met quite a few human-to-Pokemon besides Jeremiah like a Glaceon and three whole different Noiverns! Can you believe it?! Bleh, but the odd thing is each one seems to be a different case and reason for why they're like that to begin with. It's...quite odd..." George then turned to Noxia. "Well, for me, I'm actually sad to say I don't know what was used to turn me into a Leafeon, but I can tell you it was a crazy Vaporeon who would do...literally anything for my love that did it in the first place. I just woke up one day and suddenly bam, I get turned into a Salad Kitty by that Vaporeon...Luckily I was able to well...get rid of her for good..." George sighed and shook his head. Jeremiah got close and comforted him again. George smirked and continued. "For Jeremiah, what he remembered last as a human was his plane crashing down in the ocean during a raging storm to where he blacked out, lost at sea...he then told me he just woke up at the shore of an island I went to and poof! Now he's an Eevee. Pretty crazy to believe, I know..." Jeremiah nodded sadly. "Y-yeah...I lost my family and close friends on that plane..." George went to hug the young boy again who started to tear up. "Don't worry Jeremiah, I've lost those close to me as well...I promise to help you..." he said attempting to comfort the young boy as best as he possibly could.

Vincent Allistor

“Common…? I’ve been alive for 35 years… I’ve seen a lot this world has to offer, including but not limited to, having to fight off a godforsaken demon of a Houndoom, saving my cousin from an abandoned ship, and pretty much having the equivalency of a curse placed on me! And I’m only just now learning of this, which is apparently COMMON!?” He takes in a large amount of breath all at once, and slowly fumes it out of his mouth. The dragon then quickly reaches for a cup of tea, and takes a small sip from the thing. “Right… Sorry, sorry about that. I’m just… Shocked, is all.” He takes a moment to let all this sink in, before he’s ready to continue speaking. “So… Uh… You know three Noiverns like this… I get the feeling I already know who one of them is. Yeah, I’m calling it right now, one of the three is a lady who goes by the name Sorai, am I not correct?” He slowly crosses his arms and gives George a smirk. This was quickly cut off when he heard Jeremiah's story of his last memory of his previous life. “Your… Your entire family… Gone in an instant. Waking up in unfamiliar territory, in a different body… Frightened, confused, no idea what the heck is going on… Jerry, I’m so sorry to hear that. I understand all too well how you feel. All I can say is… I’m glad George here was able to find you, at least.” He slowly rises from his chair and floats on over to the Eevee. He carefully picks the child up and pulls him into a light hug.

Noxia just stood there, awkwardly. This actually was the most serious conversation she has been in so far. "Well.. I kinda can imagine how it feels like being stranded in a unknown world, it's something I went through as well after all." the Lunala shrugged. "Well, best thing is not to dwell on the past and look forward." Pyrope said with a smile on his face. "I mean, even if in Vincent's case, his adopted son, or in Jeremiah's case, his family are like, woosh, gone.. well, not gone, but no contact as for now, they sure wouldn't want to see any of us be all sad. Let's just keep going forward, and hope that we do reach our goals." the Lopunny said in a cheerful voice, before he too takes a sip from the tea.

"I'm sorry for interrupting all the little life stories, but how about we switch the topic to something more lighthearted, like for example uh.. oh yeah, how about this: What got you folks here this fine day? For Noxia and I, it was actually a little break from magic shows, although we wanted to head to the next town here by tomorrow. But oh well, our dear lady rather thought that pranking people would be more fun." he said, rolling his eyes.

George laughed awkwardly. "Yeah...it's fine...I guess it's just extremely coincidental for me. Like life itself is playing some weird game with me and turns everyone around me into a Pokemon...ugh..." He shook his head. "But anyway, to answer your other question, hey, you know Sorai too? That's nice...I really need to see her again. She was so nice to me and petted me...heh..." George then blushed a bit but then shook his head again, gaining a smile as Vincent picked his son up and hugged him. Jeremiah just stopped and nuzzled the Hydreigon softly with a happy grin on his face. George chuckled "Aww...Vincent...thank you for caring for my son like that...yeah, I wanna be the best dad I can be to Jeremiah. Luckily for him, his parents actually love Pokemon so if we can just find a translator to allow him to talk to them after finding their location, then he can be...well kinda reunited with his family again." George then turned to Pyrope and nodded. "Yeah, we should switch to something Nicer. I was just gonna take Jeremiah here to my friends mansion. I'd love to come to your next magic show though. It'd likely be spectacular, heh~" Jeremiah then jumped out of Vincents arms and went back to George, wagging his tail. He turned to Pyrope as well, saying softly, "M-me too...I'd enjoy an even bigger magic show than what we just saw...it really could be fun..." George laughed and patted him on the head again. "Well, I guess that's settled the-GAH!"

Suddenly, George started to look in pain and started shaking around wildly. Jeremiah looked concerned. "D-daddy?" George continued and started to yell "What the heck is this?!" Jeremiah went up to him and hugged him. "Daddy!" George then stopped flailing around wildly and started to pant wildly. "F-for a second, I thought I just saw...saw..." Jeremiah looked concerned. "Saw what?" George shook his head. "Nevermind...I don't know what happened...that was very odd..." He looked around. "I'm uhh...very sorry for that...that's the first time something like this has happened...I don't know what that was." Jeremiah just looked on, not sure what to say, but he was clearly nervous for George.

Vincent lets out a low chuckle as he releases Jeremiah from his grasp. “Yeah, I think a change of directions with this conversation is just what we need! The direction this one’s headed… Yeah, a bit dark for my taste.” Another nervous chuckle escapes the maw of the dapper dragon. “Anyways… As for me? I was kinda trying to knock out two birds with one stone, here! I’m on the hunt for a new home, since my first one was kinda obliterated by an Espeon… God, I hate those things. Absolutely despicable, every single one I’ve met. They just get my blood boiling! Jeremiah, if you decide to evolve… Could you please do me a favor and evolve into literally anything other than an Espeon? Anyways… The other thing I was trying to accompli-” The Hydreigon was immediately cut off when George started to spazz out for seemingly no reason. His first thought immediately came in the form of: (Oh my god, he’s having a seizure!) He immediately jumps up from his chair and rushes to the plant-fox hybrid, accidentally knocking over his cup of tea in the process. “George!” The hydra kneels down next to the Leafeon to check is condition, just in time for him to calm down. “What… What the hell happened, what was that?” He shakes his head vigorously before placing one of his heads on the closest thing to his shoulder. His frown gave away his concern for George. “What exactly did you see that made you freak out like that?”

Euclase/Vesu

Both the Lunala and the Lopunny were surprised by the sudden reaction of the Leafeon. "Noxia, I-I'll take care of George, you can go and check who's there." Pyrope told Noxia, before he rushed to the Leafeon. "Everything's okay, George?  Is there something we should be aware of?" the Lopunny asked, while thinking about what could've happend. Either someone poisoned his tea, causing hallucinations and possibly pain if his reactions were anything bad, or there was really someone around.. potentially someone dangerous.

Noxia on the other hand started to scout around, looking for the possible stranger that stalked them. She was tempted to block out the sun again in an attempt to catch the intruder off guard, but she was waiting for a sign from Pyrope first. It's not something she can do every now and then out of fun, she'd have to use up some of her charged up energy to do so. Unlike the group of pokemon being worried about George, she remained silent, and using her own abilities to her advantage. Levitating does make a more silent approach easier than walking, but she risks being seen by the intruder given her own size compared to others around her.\*

George stopped breathing so heavily, seeing everyone around him. He began to speak, scared.\_ "Alright...I guess I'll tell you what I saw...well, you remember that maniac who turned me into a Leafeon in the first place? Well, for some reason...I just saw her flash before my eyes...smiling and saying my name..." He shook his head and got chills all over his body. Jeremiah just came up and hugged him. "You mean you saw that Vaporeon...Izumi, you told me her name was, correct?" George nodded solemnly. "Yeah, and I started to spaz out. It felt like I was for some reason losing control of my own body...like, it started to move on it's own. And I don't think it was some sort of hallucination...I've never had something like this happen before and it felt...way too real."  Jeremiah looked even more shocked. "D-do you think Izumi could be...still out there somehow?" George shook his head immediately. "No, that's impossible...I-I killed her months ago, that can't be right...could it...gah..." George just stumbled around and had horrible thoughts and flashbacks to the Vaporeon girl that ruined his life. "No, it can't be..." Jeremiah looked scared, not knowing what to say anymore. He just looked at his dad, mentally broken in horror.

Vincent Allistor

“Izumi, huh? That’s the Vaporeon’s name…”  He slowly raises one of his smaller heads to the bottom of his actual functioning head, giving off the impression that he’s thinking. (Izumi… Don’t think I know that one. Probably for the best, from the sounds of things. She definitely sounds like an issue… Wait, did George say he took her life? Hm…) He stops to look off deep into the woods, in the direction George was staring at when he had the freakout. He noticed Nox had ventured off in that direction, presumably to hunt down the person the petrified Leafeon had seen. Vincent then turns face to face with George, letting out a sigh as he does so. “And you’re sure this isn’t a hallucination, right? In that case… I could see one of two scenarios happening right now. Either Izumi has returned as a spirit, is hunting you down, and has finally found her prey… Or, somebody managed to resurrect her for god knows what reason, which in turn has led to her hunting you down, and finding her prey. Whatever the case may be… George, I’d advise you to be extraordinarily careful! I’d hate to see anything happen to you, or your son for that matter.” With that, he slowly rises, once more looking off in Noxia’s direction, no longer able to see the magician. “If you’ll excuse me…” As he says this, he reached down towards his side to grab… Nothing but air. The Hydreigon lets out a sigh of frustration. “Right… If you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go find where the hell I decided to throw my stuff.” He quietly goes off in some random direction, staring down toward the ground.

The Lunala kept looking around for any potential stalker, not being able to find anyone. After keep looking around, she decided to return back to her group. "Afraid that I haven't been able to find anyone or anything. Sorry to disappoint y'all." Noxia sighed. She was kinda hoping to actually be able to help her fellow guests. Maybe it really was just the imagination of the Leafeon. "Do you have any idea who that could be or why they do--" as the Lunala was about to ask, Pyrope simply got to her and whispered it into her ear.. or the closest thing a Lunala has to that. She simply nodded, before she continued. "So, this Izumi fellow.. could she potentially have played dead? Maybe do some wormhole shenanigans and get her alternate self or something? Who knows what weird rules this world got." Noxia simply shrugged. She didn't really know how to help with that, the information she received wasn't much of use.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)Today at 11:40 AM

George just shook his head at all of what Noxia said. "No...at least, I don't believe she has any abilities like those...I am also definitely sure I killed her, unless a Vaporeon could somehow manage to survive being stabbed right through the heart with a Leaf Blade...m-maybe it was just some weird hallucination...I really hope that's the case, or else..." A sudden wave of shock came over his head. Jeremiah looked worried. "Or else what, dad...?" George continued on. "...or else what Vincent said might be true. Izumi may of either came back as a spirit and is trying to possess my body, or was resurrected and is around here somewhere!" George looked in the distance in utter horror of the thought. Jeremiah looked worried again. "No, dad, i-it can't be! It was just a hallucination okay?" George turned to the little fox-cat boy. "Yeah...I really do hope so..." The boy nuzzled his father. "Maybe you were just having some more PTSD? Especially considering all the horrific things she's done to you, even after the tutoring you got from Tessero, things may still appear in your brain occasionally. You never know..." George nodded. "Yeah...maybe my brain was just overreacting is all and I was having a horrible memory of her...The things she's done to me...Lemme tell you guys. She killed all my previous girlfriends, forced me to give her an egg, and completely took my life as a human away...ugh...things like that will never be forgotten so it really could just be some bad PTSD..." Jeremiah continued to hug his dad. "Yeah, I'm sure it was...don't worry about it...I-I understand why that would happen..." George smiled and kissed his son on the head. "Yeah, me too..." They ended off by hugging one anther.

Vincent Allistor

Moments later, Vincent also returned to the quartet, now carrying in each sock puppet hand a shield which looks like it came right off of a shiny Aegislash, and what appeared to be a sword with a crimson blade. The latter of which, he had resting just above his shoulder. He took one look at the father and son hugging each other, and couldn’t help but smile at the heartwarming sight. (George, you’re doing a great job… Keep at it.) His attention is shifted toward the Lunala, his smile faltering slightly at the thought prospect of once more entering into the field of combat. “Well, Nox? Were… Were you able to find anything, or are we practically in hot water now?” He lets out a soft chuckle, just realizing he had unintentionally made a pun. Something he usually tries to avoid. “Goddammit, I’m terrible.”

Euclase/Vesu

"So most of your life story really does lead back to that Izumi fellow." Noxia just mumbled to herself. "But in case she does seem to appear, or something responsible for your current state, I'll try my best to reach you.. well, somehow, you can't rely on my ability to blindly travel through wormholes. I can safely move things between two of those that I know the location of, but a blind travel through inbetween is like trying to close your eyes while trying to move around in a place you never been in." the Lunala said to George, hoping that he would still appreciate her offer. She then turned to the Hydreigon, and let out a sigh. "Afraid as we're still in what you called "hot waters", no trace left, I'm sorry to say, but my tracking abilites aren't the greatest." she said in a rather disappointed voice, not being quite aware of how else she could help at the moment.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George stopped hugging Jeremiah and they just looked at each other gleefully. George then turned to Noxia. He seemed a lot more gleeful now than usual. "Thank you, Noxia! I'd really appreciate the help in finding her! But I'm sure it was nothing though. I'm fine. We're all fine. No one's out to get us~" He turned to Jeremiah, really studying him now. Jeremiah looked a little weirded out now "Uhh...Dad, why are you looking at me like that." George giggled and replied. "Oh! It's nothing, I was just really thinking about everything so far and all that's happened, and how I'm so happy to have you~" Jeremiah chuckled. "U-uh...okay, I'm happy to have you as well, Dad!" George yawned. "Whew...yeah, I think it's about time we get going though! It's getting pretty late honestly! It was an honor to meet you all! Hehe." George said joyfully, waving. "I hope we meet again sometime Vincent, Noxia, and Pyrope!" Jeremiah nodded in agreement. "Y-yeah, me too...and it is getting late. G-George did want to take me to his friends' mansion before the sun went down after all." George patted the Eevee's head. "Yup! Exactly, so unless any of you have anything else to say, goodbye for now!" Jeremiah noticed how gleeful and seemingly in a hurry George was being "Heh...guess that little hug really did make him feel better I suppose..." the young fox boy thought to himself.

Vincent Allistor

Letting out a light sigh, half in disappointment, half in relief, he takes the blade and slides it back into its scabbard. He then works at setting his shield back onto his back, while stating the following: “Well, that makes yet another target that I’ll be on the lookout for. Between dad, Izumi, practically the entirety of a certain family one of my friends belong to, and that bitch, I have my work cut out for me!” He gives off a nervous laugh, and adjusts the fedora sitting on his head to make sure it isn’t crooked. “Today was… Certainly an interesting one. George, Jerry! It was nice meeting ya! I wouldn’t at all mind running into you guys again at some point!” He gives them a wide grin, then turns back toward Noxia and Pyrope. “The same goes for you two as well. The show you provided was pretty entertaining, and it was pretty interesting hearing your story! Besides, you two seem nice enough. Can’t wait to see your next one at some point. And… Well, who knows? If we’re lucky, I might have my son back by then! I know he’d enjoy it.” He gives the two a quick bow before turning away from them and heading off on his own. However, something makes him pause. For a moment, he just floated there, nearly motionless. Afterwards, he quickly floats back over to the Eevee family, clearing his throat slightly. “Uh… Hey, George? Would it be alright if I tagged along for a little bit?”

Euclase/Vesu

"Well, I guess that's my cue to leave then. I really appreciated some spectators and people to talk to in this new world, but as mentioned much earlier by my dear bunny-eared friend, Pyrope and I wanted to head into a different direction, so that really means goodbye for now." Noxia said, bowing in front of the others. "Farewell, until next time~" she said with a smile, before turning around and heading her way. Pyrope turned his head after her, and then back to the group. "Well, since our dear lady finally decided to take her leave.. goodbye friends, it was fun talking with all of you, hearing your stories and seeing how are you like. I'm sure it's not hard to track down where we are, so it's easier for you three to find us than it is for us to find any of you." Pyrope said with a nervous chuckle, before he too went on his way, although moving slightly faster due to wanting to catch up with the distance between him and Noxia. One could hear a rather faint "Wait for me, Noxia!" as he ran after her, but that's about it.

Morrigan (Smol Noivern)

George and Jeremiah both waved goodbye to the Lunala and Lopunny. George said, "Bye you two! It was a pleasure seeing your glamorous show~" Jeremiah nodded. "Yeah, it was fun! Well except for the beginning part but ahem...it was nice seeing your magic tricks. Hope we can see them some other time~" George then turned to the Hydreigon a bit worryingly. "N-no! I's fine, Vincent. It was nice meeting you in the first place and I really wanted to just hang out with my son alone some more. You probably understand, being a dad yourself." George chuckled, looking to Jeremiah. "U-uhm...yeah, sorry Vincent but if my dad wants to spend some more time alone with me then that's alright I suppose...It really was nice meeting you." The Eevee came up to the Hydreigon, jumped up and hugging him. He went back down "By the way, that outfit looks really nice on you...very fancy..." George nodded his head. "Ah, yes! You've got quite a good sense of fashion indeed. Very dashing." He said, carefully observing the Hydreigon, but then turning back to his son. "Come along now, Jeremiah! We only got so much time!" Jeremiah nodded and ran right up next to George. "Alright! See ya later, Vincent!" George followed suit. "Bye Vincent! Hope you find your son someday!" Then the Eevee and Leafeon would start to walk away into the forest.
