Quinn should have seen this coming. As they crept towards the rear parking lot, no less than three harsh figures in Plasma uniforms shuffled around the space. One lingered by the door, another by the security booth leading to the road, and a third patrolled between cars. All were armed, and looked to have Poké Balls protruding from their vests and coats as well. There would be no quiet exit from the BBLEC. Quinn, Avery, and their Pokémon companions lingered in the trees overlooking the parking lot,…-

Things were supposed to go easy for Lane once he reached the expedition’s destination. A few cameras, a few hours watching covertly from the underbrush, and Mew would be there. If he was very lucky, he’d get to meet her, and learn why mew were so hard to find. There was just one problem: that didn’t happen. Not to say his next few days didn’t go well. Spending time alone with Elisa was always fun, and without Dominic around she could be as overt as she wanted without getting embarrassed. It…-

Eric faced Adriana, frozen in place. Except for the tail, which swished nervously back and forth. His ears moved too, both entirely out of his control."Did someone let an animal in?" someone else asked. "What do we do, call animal control?"John stepped forward, lifting his safety glasses away from his eyes. "Sure is dressed like Eric. I thought I was losing my mind, watching him one line over. But I can see it. That purple thing on his face...""Help me," he pleaded, abandoning all semblance of imitating…-

There was a flash, and suddenly they were somewhere else. Mewtwo landed delicately, watching with mild concern as Elisa fumbled in the air again. But he still watched, waiting until she had corrected her flight to turn away. They stood in a cavern of vast size, with shiny black soapstone towering around them. The space was so vast that Lane floated closer to him, as close to Mewtwo as she dared. "This place is... unfriendly." The air was icy cold, and a thin layer of moisture coated every…

Lotus emerged from the steps leading a group of weary engineers. Many now had fresh burns, scorched coats, or other wounds. But all made it up the last few steps to where a nervous unicorn waited with a team of sturdy ponies.These wore fabric coats and masks, though even these showed signs of damage, either fighting the fire or helping ponies to safety.They carried her group up the steps to the top deck one by one, until only Lotus and the unicorn remained. "I think that's it," she said, still breathing…

Lane couldn't read a single thing from Mewtwo—not a single stray thought, not a flicker of emotion. There was little more on his face, though there was a hint of something in his scent. Amusement? But even the feeble wind moved so quickly that it stole any scents away from her, out of reach. "You were brave to come here, kitten," he began. "Since my creation, I have spent years cultivating a reputation of respect. I do not abide distraction or pointless interference. There are some…

The next morning came and went with little fanfare. Iron Feather slipped away to return to his duties, while Lotus waited inside for a little while longer, before asking the marine in the hall to go with her to the showers. Living on the Svalinn wasn't bad—though she would probably enjoy it more if she didn't have a pony watching her at all times. The ponies didn't seem to expect much from her—Princess Luna didn't call her for an interview, and no soldiers asked to talk to her about kirin battle…

The Pokémon bore down on her, looking as furious as their masters. Each one glowered in her general direction. "Better listen!" said the blue one, though how it could say anything with that tongue, she didn't know. "Or we hurt you." "Hypno, do your thing," said one of the thugs. The same one that had thrown its pokéball. "Make her talk." It obeyed, eyes focusing on her as it moved the little coin it held gently back and forth. "Obey," it said, as…

Eric always wanted to go on a cruise. There was something magical about getting on a metal box and arriving somewhere far away, spending every day in luxury and comfort. But cruises cost money, and that family farm could barely pay for basic living expenses.Riding on the Svalinn was a little like a cruise—its own self-contained world, with amenities provided on every deck. Granted, she didn't think any cruise her human self would've taken would have quite so many soldiers.The Svalinn hadn't been built…

After all the nightmares Lane had been through thus far, the trip to Saffron was surprisingly uneventful. Mostly it was incredibly dull, with a few brief flashes of fear when the meal-cart arrived and she had to hide her companions in a hurry. Other than that, the trip was downright peaceful. If Korina was there, she probably would've chided her for not getting more practice with her powers. But Lane wasn't sure she could get the human body back if she lost it, and she wasn't going to…
