twenty-third form; this should not have happened {video/action for route 36/37} (dated to 16/06/11)

[bamfsecretary]

 - wonder what that thing is, should check it out on the 'Gear. {The 'Gear's camera clicks on as it's pulled out of a pocket, and after a bit of swirling in which the ground and sky mix weirdly, the picture resolves, and this appears, simply floating in the middle of the road, stock still.}

I've got no idea what it is - what do you think of it, Shinrai?

Ri! Riolu, lu. {The camera moves - she's circling the creature, slowly moving around it, behind it.} I don't know why the PokeDex function is so hard to ena -

{There's silence for a second, and then the 'Gear clatters to the ground, and all you can see are the trees, and the Riolu shrieks as it is picked up and thrown to one side, momentum arrested by a large bush. Nanao's voice is thin and high and quiet and scared, and she sounds absolutely terrified, like something is happening that should not be happening at all, something that should not be possible in this world.}

 

No, no don't , don't do this you can't I can't I caaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA -
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 

{Then the screaming stops, just as suddenly as it began, and Nanao's knees make contact with the ground, hard and painful, and her body falls forward, face hitting the ground with a unhealthy-sounding crunch. The skin of her temple splits open, and her glasses have cracked, and her eyes stare blindly at the camera.}

 

`Shedinja's hard body doesn't move - not even a twitch. In fact, its body appears to be merely a hollow shell. It is believed that this Pokémon will steal the spirit of anyone peering into its hollow body from its back.`

 

{After that, there is near silence, except for the sobbing of the baby Riolu as it drags itself back over to his mother, crying loudly. The Shedinja merely looks on, moving closer at one point. The Riolu braces itself, ready to endure an attack, but it backs away and disappears into the foliage, leaving Shinrei the Riolu oh so very alone.}

{OOC: Nanao's soul has been stolen! Feel extremely to rescue her, and any replies to the 'Gear will be made by a terrified Riolu. She's south of Ecruteak, in the vicinity of Routes 36 & 37, and her nightmare post will go up in a few days.}

{Shinrai looks down at his legs sadly, before looking back over to the camera.}

I - I don't know if I can. M-my legs don't work the way they should.... {And he pokes his paws together softly.}

[At this, Haze actually snaps at Elisa, causing enough of a scuffle that Marona hurriedly returns the offending Haunter.]

[However, before he can say anything else, a hand reaches out and grabs the gear, rattling it into a bag. Marona's about to do something very stupid that involves running outside, and, well... we all know what happens (http://route-1065.livejournal.com/127517.html?thread=7740957#t7740957) then.]

{Shinrai opens his mouth to say something like thank you, but the 'Gear is grabbed before he can say anything.}
