POV: Ryan
Ryan and Spynt walked back inside the guild, heading for their room when Laia stopped them.
Laia: Hey Ryan can I ask you something?
Ryan hesitated slightly before awnsering.
Ryan: Uh, sure.
Laia: Okay then please come with me, and Spunt you can go to your room.
Spynt: Okay.
Spynt walked away to his room.
Ryan followed Laia to her office.
Laia sat down besides the window.
Laia: Ryan, do you notice anything, odd?
Ryan: Not realy.
Laia: Look at the sky.
Ryan looked at the sky.
Ryan: It looks darker than it did before.
Laia: Yes, it seems to get darked by the minute.
Ryan: Realy?
Laia: Yes, now, please, I have a suspicion.
Ryan: Oh, what is it.
Laia: Remember when I said humans come here with a purpose?
Ryan: Of course.
Laia: This could be their purpose.
Ryan: It could?
Ryan: But why did you call me here then?
Laia: I wanted to ask if you could inform the two, maybe ask if they know about this.
Ryan: Okay sure.
Ryan walked out the door, heading for the main hall.
As Ryan opened the front door he could still see Charlie and Nathan.
Ryan: Hey guys!
Charlie: Huh?
He looked at Ryan.
Charlie: Something?
Ryan: Yeah, there is something odd about the sky.
At that point the air alarms went off.
Ryan: Something is heading over here.
Charlie looked up at the sky to see a giant anomaly floating towards the ciry.
Charlie: Jezus fuck what is that.
Nathan: Shut up we're gonna fucking die!
Charlie: Stop talking about dying when we're going to die.
POV: Jeak
Jeak was sitting at his desk and turned to Void who was patiently sitting in the corner.
Jeak: Void, I'm getting impatient.
Void: For what?
Jeak: It has been like two days since you launched that thing towards Charlie and Nathan, how do we know if it was effective or not?
Void: We don't.
Jeak sighed.
Jeak: How, can we make it so we can?
Void: We need more pure dark energy.
Jeak: Can we not just go back to that thing we went to?
Void shrugged.
Void: Don't know if there's still juice in there.
Jeak: Do not say that word in my household.
Void: Okay okay, well you see we need to find a purer place.
Jeak: A purer place?
Void: Yes.
Jeak: So where do we find one?
Void: I don't know, you tell me.
Jeak: That is exactly why I'm asking you.
Void: Look, I haven't been here much, we'll just have to check around.
Jeak: I'll just rob their house for goodies.
Void: Good people won't have pure dark energy.
Jeak: Damn you have a point.
POV: Charlie
This thing oh you know what it is if you payed attention if not, dude what why? Anyway I am getting off track, This thing was coming closer, heading for one destiniation, our protagonists, one goal kill?
Charlie: What even is that.
Nathan: Win?
Win: Sorry I do not recognise this thing.
Charlie: Useful as always.
Win: Thanks!
Ryan: These alarms are hurting my poor ears.
Nathan; You have ears?
Suddenly a ding sound could be heared as the speakers started to make a voice audiable.
Speakers: Attention citizens, a huge potentialy hostile creature is heading for our city, we would advice to seek shelter this instant.
Speakers: I repeat a huge potentialy hostile creature is heading for our city, we would advice to seek shelter this instant.
A audiable sense of fear could be heared coming from the city as the speakers continued to spread the message so everyone could hear it.
Ryan: Follow me, we can enter the basement in my house.
Charlie and Nathan nodded
Ryan: Okay, quick follow me.
Ryan started running towards his house with Charlie and Nathan following him.
They ran past the city streets as citizens entered their homes of hid behind other things.
Ryan: Just a little bit more guys.
The giant creature in the sky seemed to follow the crew while running.
Nathan: Hey is it just me or did that thing just turn to face us?
Charlie: I don't realy care, we need to follow Ryan to his house before we die.
Nathan: What's wrong with dying?
Charlie: We get one life, one life, one try.
Nathan: Is that even an argument?
Charlie: This isn't a dream, this is real, if we die, we're dead forever never to return again, understand.
Nathan: How does that proof anything.
Charlie: Fucking god.
Ryan: We're almost there guys.
Charlie: Good.
Ryan stopped at his house.
Ryan: Come in.
Charlie and Nathan followed Ryan who went inside his house.
He opened a hatch in the floor, revealing a staircase down to a basement.
Ryan: Down here.
Charlie and Nathan followed Ryan down the staircase.
Nathan: I hate stairs.
Charlie: You know, it is kinda dark in here.
Ryan laughed.
Ryan: Does my tail not radiate enough light for you?
He said while pressing the lighswitch that was placed next to the stairs to turn on the lights.
Looking around, the ceiling wasn't that high but high enough to still stand, at least for these Pokémon. There were racks of food and drinks pushed up against the stone walls.
Nathan: Why do you have food down here?
Ryan: You think this place is only for emergencies.
Nathan: Uh, yeah.
Ryan: Well no, I just keep my food here for when I need it, kinda handy actually.
Charlie: This place is suprisingly well isolated, I can barely hear the blaring speakers we heared outside.
Ryan: Nice right?
Charlie: So how long will we be down here for?
Ryan: Uh, honestly I have no idea.
Nathan: Have you ever been in such a situation before?
Ryan: Yes, but I was quite young. My parents caried me down here.
Charlie: Huh, I tought you lived alone, where are your parents.
Ryan: They moved out quite some years ago.
Charlie: Oh.
Ryan: Where are your parents.
Charlie remained silent.
Ryan: Oh, right, you're not from here.
Charlie: Yeah.
Charlie: So since we might be down here for a while, what are we going to do to pass the time.
Nathan: Maybe sing a song.
Nathan: You're a bitch!
He sang off note on purpose.
Charlie: Let's not sing that song.
Nathan: You know that song?
Charlie: No but it sounds bad.
Nathan: Mood.
Charlie: That's not a mood.
Ryan: Can I ask something.
Charlie: Uh, sure.
Ryan: This thing that's currently above our city, yes? I was wondering if you knew about it.
Charlie: I would've said what it was when I saw it wouldn't I?
Ryan: It was kinda dark, I couldn't figure it out at all, only it stairstep shape, so it can't be a Pokémon.
Charlie: It could be.
Ryan: Huh?
Charlie: But that's just a myth, a true one but it surely can't apply here.
Ryan: Tell me.
Charlie: Well, here in our world, or there I should say, we have Pokémon as a game.
Ryan: A game.
Charlie: Yes. Now those games we're devided into generations, we're on the eight as of now, and back in the first you could play it on something called a Game Boy.
Ryan: Is that like a person?
Charlie: No, it's more like a device you hold in your hand, with buttons, it runs-
Win: The Game Boy is an 8-bit handheld game console developed and manufactured by Nintendo. The first handheld in the Game Boy family, it was first released in Japan in April 1989, then North America, three months later, and lastly in Europe, more than one year later. It was designed by the same team that developed the Game & Watch series of handheld electronic games and several Nintendo Entertainment System games: Satoru Okada, Gunpei Yokoi, and Nintendo Research & Development.
Charlie: Win, you better enter sleep mode right now or I'm forcing a blue screen.
Win: As you wish.
Ryan: Most of those words mean nothing to me.
Char;ie: Exactly, well let's get back to the thing, those games we're kinda biggy, meaning they had a bunch of issues, well there is this NPC.
Ryan: Whats that?
Charlie: An NPC is a non player character, or just someone who you're not responsible for.
Ryan: Okay then.
Charlie: Okay so, if you talked to this old man NPC, flew to Cinnabar Island, surfed at the coast, you could find a programming oversight going by the name of MissingNo.
Ryan: And how does this add up.
Charlie: You see that placeholder was stairshaped, now that could just be a coincidence for all I know.
Ryan: I knew it!
Charlie: Huh?
Nathan: Sus.
Ryan: I knew you would know.
Charlie: Now, what will you do, you're stuck here now, for all you know, your house could be gone, the entire city could be burnt to the ground.
Ryan: We've got to leave at one point.
Charlie: We've been here for five minutes.
Nathan: Ryan, you have icecream?
Ryan: No...
Nathan: Aw man.
POV: Jeak
Jeak: Ronald? Are you here?
Ronald: Yeah, you called me right?
Jeak: That is correct.
Ronald: Why did you call me?
Jeak: We, and Void, need to discuss some plans.
Ronald: Why?
Jeak: Well, there exists this chance that Charlie and Nathan still exist, wherever they are, because we can not see in there, and know exactly what is going on.
Ronald: Oh, that is true.
Jeak: So void, you said that we could enter their world if we used some more pure dark energy.
Void: That would be the best case scenario.
Jeak: And then you said that the thing we went to to get some last time, was ‘out of juice’.
Jeak showed visible disgust when saying the word juice.
Void: That is correct yes.
Jeak: Now then, how will we get more if that place was completely devoid of pure dark energy.
Void: As I said we find more.
Jeak: Okay, well Ronald, do you have any idea where we can find some pure dark energy.
Ronald: Uh, not realy, maybe we could find some under your tower Jeak, we are sime kind of evil corporation we should definitly have such a substance under our home, right?
Void: That sounds about right ti me.
Jeak: Yes, but we have one issue with that idea.
Void: What is it?
Jeak: How are we gonna get under the tower?
Ronald: Yeah, you have a point, how are we gonna get under the tower?
Void: We could dig.
Jeak: And break it?
Void: No, no we dig under from the sides, we start outside and we go below it, we then extract that pure dark energy.
Jeak: Most drills aren't gonna bet through the pavement dude.
Void: Can’t we hire some people to do it for us.
Ronald: Void, you honestly think we can just do such a thing have them trust us.
Void: Well, you have a point.
Ronald: Yeah, so what do we do.
Jeak: Okay get this idiot, we remove, the pavement tiles, and we dig, get that.
Ronald: Okay.
Void: When do we begin.
Jeak: Now of course.
Void: Okay let's get started
POV: Charlie
Ryan: Okay, now what are we gonna do now.
Charlie: Remember your city gave me asthma, well I'm gonna fucking die.
Nathan: Asthma doesn't kill you like that.
Charlie went towards Nathan.
Charlie: Pretend, pretend.
Nathan: You have no asthma do you.
Charlie: Of course not what are you stupid?
Nathan: No.
Ryan: Can we get a serious awnser?
Charlie: How about we go outside kick that things ass go back inside.
Nathan: Charlie, you can't be serious.
Charlie: What else will we do? We will just die if we don't or something, it's not going away by itself.
Ryan: Do you even know how to fight?
Charlie: No.
He stood up and pointed at Ryan.
Charlie: That's what your purpose is.
Ryan: What!? You can't just use me as a slave.
Charlie: You're out of luck Ryan.
Nathan: Didn't we get teached how to use a move?
Charlie: Yes, but I'm not shouting a move name, plus I don't even know what moves I have and if any are longrange, I know Ryan has Ember.
Charlie: Well, hey Win! Calculate can Ryan ohko MissingNo in one hit with ember\
The laptop turned back on.
Win: Ryan would need to hit around 8 times.
Charlie: Realy? Even if that fucker is that weak.
Win: Yes.
Charlie: Anyway to make the odds beter.
Win: Yes, have sun.
Charlie: How de we get that Win?
Win: Use a move like sunny day.
Nathan: Can Ryan even learn that.
Win: You can all learn that move in fact.
Charlie: Cool but how do we get a TM.
Ryan: They probably sell it at the store.
Charlie: The stores are probably closed Ryan.
Ryan shook his head.
Ryan: We can go somewhere else.
Charlie: Like where?
Ryan: Another city.
Charlie: Run for it then.
Rayn opened the hatch and went up the stairs.
Ryan: Well, my house is still there.
Charlie and Nathan went up the staircase.
Charlie: Okay goo- Oh what why is the sky red?
Ryan: Uh...
They sky had indeed turned a dark ominus read color.
Ryan: Let's not worry about that, let's get to our destination.
Charlie, Nathan and Ryan stepped out of the front door.
Charlie: Uh, Ryan it's above your house.
Ryan looked up.
Ryan: Argh, it is, it must want one of us though.
Charlie: Probably us.
Ryan: Why do you think that?
Charlie: We're humans.
Ryan: What does that have anything to do with tha-
Nathan: Run.
Ryan: Why?
Ryan saw the big object above his house was prepairing to fire an attack at him.
Ryan: Okay we run now.
The three started running.
Nathan: So where do we go.
Ryan: We first get out of this situation.
Charlie: Yeah I don't fancy dying.
Nathan: Don't worry I have my spawnpoint set at home, I'll just return back there when I die.
Charlie: That's not how that works, plus the last bed you slept in was at Ryan's house, so that'd just bring you back at start.
Nathan: Oh fuck.
Ryan: Is it still following us?
Charlie looked behind himself.
Charlie: It's turning again, it's slow so we have the time.
Ryan: We need to go faster, we need to get as much of a distance between us and that thing.
Nathan: Or one of us leaves.
Ryan: Why.
Charlie: There's a good chance it's heading for me and Nathan, if we just split our paths it will not know what to do.
Ryan: Hm, but if you'll do that you'll get lost.
Charlie: Then we do it when we get to our destination.
Ryan: Sounds good, as long as it gives us more time it's good, but now we need to hurry.
The three started running, Nathan trailing behind. Along trees and such, just another long path all in all.
Ryan: I just don't get why it would head for us.
Charlie: I don't know either, but we can be glad we're moving it away from the city.
Ryan: Yeah but that doesn't get rid of it, we need more time.
Charlie: You undertsand mechanical hands are the ruler of everything?
Ryan: What does that even mean.
Charlie: It means you don't decide if we get more time.
Ryan: No but we can use the time we do have as efficiently as possible.
Ryan: It's top speed is not that high so if we walk or run it's likeley going to take the same amount of time, so if we run we can get there earlier and have more time to do what we came for. Understand?
Charlie: Why are you acting like I'm in idiot.
Ryan: Oh, come on we have better things to do than this.
Nathan: Okay sure.
He said, kinda tired.
Ryan: We're nearly there I can see the city we're headed for.
Charlie: Great, this one looks more bland though.
This city was filled with white square shaped buildings with windows, at this point the windows we're mostly black.
Nathan: Are they like, *exhale* sleeping now *inhale*?
Ryan shrugged.
Charlie: Shut up and get there.
Ryan: Yeah yeah.
POV: Void
Void was watching Jeak and Ronald attempt to breal open the pavement, not going too well.
Void sighed as they floated towards the back, into another alley.
After ariving he opened a book, I would tell you what it said but I'm just a narrator I can't see that.
Void started writing in it.
Void: Note sevenhundered eighty.
Void: It has been about four days since I sent someone to the Pokémon world.
Void: Since then, I have teamed up with a few humans.
Void: And boy, are they sure weak.
Void: Now, I'm telling them to get me this pure dark energy, so I can get back there myself to have a personal word with them.
Void: So they can pay.
Void: These humans are so unknowing, not even asking for my identitiy.
Void: These humans are so unknowing, they just think I'm one of them.
Void: Ugh, I haven't even truly decied if I'm gonna take these two with me.
Void: It's all in all hard to judge this world, and I just wanna get back to my own.
Jeak: Void!
Void noticed Jeak calling him.
Void: What!?
Jeak: Come we got the tiles out!
Void went over to Jeak, quickly putting his book away.
Void: Okay now we must dig a tunnel, a tunnel that goes under your tower.
Jeak: Okay...
Jeak: Ronald, get some shovels will you.
Ronald: Yes sir.
Ronald walked into the tower.
Jeak: Good, well continue as fast as possible.
Void: Sounds good.
