The Temporal Facility
A suspicious factory opens in Sunyshore City. A week afterwards, flyers are spread across the region by the factory staff, requesting that the best trainers and Pokemon go to their factory to prove who's really the strongest. What will you choose to do?
  Grumpy Old Snake Narisa blinked silently, moving over to the wall and leaning against it as she watched Max without comment. 7/27/2010 #31 |
 vWingmaer After a few minutes, Max suddenly asked "Do you know of Palkia?" 7/27/2010 #32 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa cocked her head, dark horn resting on the wall. "Not really. I mean, I could have sworn I've heard it before, but..." 7/27/2010 #33 |
| vWingmaer Max frowned. "Oh...I've only heard the name a few times myself, and I know very little of it, other then it being the deity of space...Though, I think that it may have some sort of connection to these markings...Do you know anyone that could tell us about Palkia?" he asked. 7/27/2010 #34 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa blanched, bolting away from the wall. "Are you insane?! How the heck would I know anyone?" Realizing she was overreacting, she forced herself to relax against the wall. "...Sorry. But, seriously, no socializing for me. You're the first." ((I've got to go. Might be on later...maybe... Otherwise, tomorrow.)) 7/27/2010 . Edited 7/27/2010 #35 |
| vWingmaer "...Please help me find someone? Surely not everyone on this planet can hate us hybrids...Besides, I need to know about Palkia. Because apparantly, I'm part Palkia!...And I don't even know what Palkia looks like!...I wouldn't be asking you if I didn't trust you, and right now, you're the only person that I trust in the slightest..." Max said. 7/27/2010 #36 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "Erhm...uh..." Narisa stared at him, surprised by the suddenness of his words. "I-I've never done anything like that... just hung around town, really..." She said hesitantly. Besides-- why would he trust me? But as the surprise wore off, she had to admit the idea sounded nice. She'd never really thought about it before, but as usual she ached to learn about things she didn't know. Her thoughts were fairly easy to guess by her expression. 7/27/2010 . Edited 7/27/2010 #37 |
| vWingmaer "...So, you'll help me?" Max asked, now smiling slightly. 7/27/2010 #38 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "...Sure. I guess." Narisa sighed, shaking her head a bit. 7/27/2010 . Edited 7/27/2010 #39 |
| vWingmaer For the first time in ages, Max started smiling. "Thanks! I knew I could trust you!" he said happily. Though, his smile didn't last for long as he suddenly realised something. "...Err...I just realised that other then you, I don't know anyone, and so I've got no idea about where to start looking for info about Palkia..." he said. 7/27/2010 #40 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa gave him a surprised look, then chuckled slightly. "We're in the same boat there," she agreed, then thought for a moment. "Perhaps a trainer, or a historian... not that I'd know where to find one of those..." 7/27/2010 . Edited 7/27/2010 #41 |
| vWingmaer "Hmmm...Maybe there's one of those types of people in this town? This place that we're in is an ancient ruin, after all. I'd think that someone here'd have to know something about Palkia, or the markings on the wall" Max said. 7/27/2010 #42 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa shrugged. "Hey, you've been living with them -- you'd know better than I," she replied, forgetting that he was new. And he's less likely to get driven out of town, even if they do figure out he's a hybrid. 7/27/2010 . Edited 7/27/2010 #43 |
| vWingmaer "...I used to know other humans, and I used to live in Solaceon Town...Until I was turned into a hybrid...Plus, I've only recently moved here, and I think that some of the townspeople already suspect that I'm a hybrid...After all, I can't hide my tail or my feet...Though, there has to be at least one person in town that doesn't hate hybrids, right?" Max asked. 7/27/2010 #44 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "Wait wait wait. What?" Caught at the beginning of his words, the rest hardly registered to Narisa. She stared at him, flabbergasted. "Turned into a hybrid?!" 7/27/2010 #45 |
| vWingmaer "Yep, that's what I said. I used to be human, but I was turned into a Palkia hybrid" Max said. 7/27/2010 #46 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "....." Narisa stared at him blankly for a moment, then blinked. "How's that even possible?" She asked. 7/28/2010 . Edited 7/28/2010 #47 |
| vWingmaer "I've got no idea how it's possible, but it is, somehow..." Max said. 7/28/2010 #48 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "....Okaaay, then." Narisa shook her head. "Well, this'll be interesting." 7/28/2010 #49 |
| vWingmaer "Interesting?...More like scary..." Max muttered. 7/28/2010 #50 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "Well, that too, I guess." Narisa agreed with a small shrug. 7/28/2010 #51 |
| vWingmaer "Hmmm...But, I guess we won't get anything done by just staying in these ruins...Let's go..." Max said, before reluctantly forcing himself to walk out of the ruins. 7/28/2010 #52 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "Umm..." Narisa skulked after him, not looking too happy about leaving the shelter. "I'm not sure bringing me along at first is such a good idea..." 7/28/2010 #53 |
| vWingmaer "Hmmm?...Oh, right. Sigh...I guess I'll have to search on my own, then..." Max muttered. 7/28/2010 #54 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa ducked her head, looking faintly embarrassed. "Sorry... but it really wouldn't end well." She pointed to the exit of the ruins. "I'll be up on that ledge again if you find anyone or... something. Kay?" 7/28/2010 . Edited 7/28/2010 #55 |
| vWingmaer "...Yeah, ok. I still feel nervous about going alone, but I guess you're right. I've got no choice if I want to get info about Palkia..." Max muttered, before nervously walking out towards the centre of town. Though he was now in view of the entire town, he hadn't attracted any attention yet. 7/28/2010 #56 |
| Grumpy Old Snake "Hey, they haven't done anything to you yet," Narisa encouraged as he left. She waited a moment, then bolted out and leapt up onto the ledge. She wiggled deeper into the grass than before, feeling far more nervous than earlier-- she hardly ever stayed in town this far into the day. The few other times had almost always been close escapes, and she'd been spotted half the time. 7/29/2010 . Edited 7/29/2010 #57 |
| vWingmaer After around 10 minutes, Max finally got up the courage to walk up to the townspeople that were currently walking around town. Seeing how they only had slight interest in his tail at first, but soon ignored it, he started nervously speaking with some of them. 7/29/2010 #58 |
| Grumpy Old Snake Narisa listened carefully, her sensitive hearing occasionally picking up his voice. However, she was mostly tensed in the event of raised voices or sharp-edged fear. 7/29/2010 #59 |
| vWingmaer Though, strangely enough, all of the townspeople Max spoke to always spoke calmly and unafraid. After talking to the fifth person, though, Max just happened to spot two figures in the distance, heading towards town. The instant he saw the uniform one of them was wearing, he instantly panicked and ran back to the shrine in front of the ruins. "Narisa! Th-they're coming! Two of them!...I can't speak to any more people! I've got to stay out of sight, no matter what!" he said in a panicky voice. The person in the uniform who was approaching town was the staff guy who'd left town earlier, while the other person was wearing feature-concealing clothing, and so couldn't be identified. 7/29/2010 #60 |
