thebelsareinert | First Day

[Somewhere in the middle of New Bark, one might find a blue haired youth sitting with his Larvitar attempting to figure out his PokeGear.]

Is this an old COMP model? Doesn't really look like it, but only Atsuro would know for sure. [he shakes his head] It looks like all my demons and macca are gone too. ... No, not gone. They're probably still in my COMP. Which means that--

[a beep!, and the PokeGear's video function whirrs to life.]

[VIDEO]

-- I really need to leave. [at the sound of Larvitar making a noise on the side, Hiro glances away from the screen, then back to it.] Oh, awesome. I got it working even without Atsuro here.

... Might as well get right into it.

Listen, I don't know where I am, but I need to get back to Tokyo.

[he pauses, then suddenly flares up a little]

Does this at least have a TV function? Internet? I want to check the news about the lockdown. That is, if the government's even let it have that name. It's probably been really covered up outside too.

[he shakes his head again, getting just a bit angry. in a few hours, everything will be...]

Listen I'm running out of time! If you know where I am and how I can get back to Tokyo, tell me as soon as you can!

[with that, he ends the feed [/VIDEO] and gets up, heading back towards the Professor's place. He figures if there's a scientist handing out demons, he's got to have answers.

... Someone want to stop him from breaking Elm's door down?]

But still what would you get out of threatening him anyway? Besides getting yourself in trouble with the people around here? Can you even guarantee that threatening him will solve anything?

[not missing a beat]

Can you guarantee not threatening him won't solve anything?

He obviously has information, and if no one's tried that, then I will.

Ugh, he has a point there.

Oh, sure. Fine. Let's threaten the guy who may or may not have the information we need to get home! That'll make him talk... Or, you know, call the police. Speaking of which, how do you know no one's tried yet either?

Does it look like there are any police around here? [he shakes his head] If a regular person can walk around with a demon like this, law enforcement doesn't matter.

If he values his life, why wouldn't he say anything? [a beat] I can try talking first though.

I said call didn't I...? And in what universe does law enforcement not matter?

[A sigh. She's starting to think all boys with blue hair just don't think.]

But, okay, try talking first. I'll go with you.

Any universe where any random person can have power like this. [nods at his Larvitar, which tilts its head curiously.]

You want to know too?

... What's wrong with them? [... She has a Wobbuffet that has most likely moved to hide behind her at this point. Yeah, not looking like the most intimidating Pokemon right now.]

Of course! I have a home I want to go back to too. [She also wants to be there to make sure he doesn't hurt four eyes.]

These can be used for anything. Robbing, killing-- It's not a power every person should have. [... Hiro pauses seeing that. Something is weird about the demons here.]

Makes sense. Hopefully we'll get lucky.

You called them demons, right? But when the Professor gave me this guy he called him a Pokemon.

Lead the way then, Mr. Leader.

Maybe he knows more than he's letting on.

[he nods, then heads over to knock on the door.]

You think so? I'm not sure about that for some reason...

[— Unexpectedly polite. She's going to wait before following him in then.]

What makes you say that?

[that's a bit surprising, given how outward she was earlier. even so, out comes the professor... already getting back into his "Welcome to Johto!" speech.]

— Because of that. If I have to listen to this speech one more time...

... [it never ends does it?]

Now can I threaten him?

[Is he seriously asking permission? You bet.]

[Have A Look again, Hiro.]

Uuuu...

[Looking at Elm!!]

Professor, this guy is going to start threatening if you don't start talking about something else! What'll you if you end up with broken glasses, huh?!

[... And the speech just goes on.]

Seriously?! Geez, it's like talking to a robot!

[... well, it's something at least.]

No kidding. Think he's possessed...? If he is, I could threaten him all I want - even kill him! - and get nothing. [for the record, he does not look particularly thrilled with killing another guy, but the threat he hopes should have been enough.]

...

Well, now you know that you're not going to get anything out of him, right? Let's get out of here! It's like listening to a broken record.

I guess you've got a point.

[blink]

You want to come with me?

... Yes? Unless you don't want to walk out the door... Or do you actually want to listen to this speech again?

Oh, you mean the door.

[At which point Hiro just nods and goes.]

[She is getting out of here GOODBYE FOUR EYES \o/]

Ugh, I think "Welcome to the world of POKEMON!" is going to repeat in my head for days now.

If that's true, that's pretty lucky.

... How is that lucky? Hmph.
