I found my way into my room, finding Freth on the bed reading a book with Absol's head resting on her lap. "Well you two are just hitting it off." I said to her.
"Absol here is perhaps the most affectionate Pokemon I have ever known; not that I am complaining, but its a little baffling." Freth admitted.
"Well, provided that it remembers anything during its time as a Shadow Pokemon, which it seems to be the case for all of them, really, then who knows what this Absol has been through before you got it worked out of his system. I mean, you found him in a glass case or something?"
"Something that the Hexagon brothers had him in. Who knows how much attention they gave him other than trying to get their science project to succeed." Freth said, sitting the book down and rubbing the back of the Absol's neck. The Absol leaned into the rub, feeling great comfort behind it.
"How's the arm?"
"Still hurts like hell, though, not as bad as it was."
"Taken anything for the pain?"
"Nah, stuff that's prescribed for pain like this feels like it does me more harm than good. Throws me for a loop. I'm just going to tough it out."
"Suit yourself." I said. "At any rate, everyone seems to be getting close to getting ready for what's to come."
"Are you taking Tristen with you?" Freth asked.
"Yea. I don't think I'm going to get much say out of that one."

HQ was buzzing as always, people going about their daily lives, far from the madness and chaos consuming Unova and yet the dread of it continued to linger over their home at Mt. Silver like a malevolent phantom. Any restful moments or joyful times being experienced would be shattered as the sirens blared in HQ for several seconds, intended to immediately get everyone's attentions for the next announcement. Anyone outside of HQ would get similar ones on their SNAGs, perhaps less ear splitting.
"Listen up, all of you. Alliance forces are currently engaged once again with Flare forces in Nimbasa City, a small force rushing the bridge early in the evening causing prolonged street fighting to break out in the city. Rocket intelligence, confirmed by Alliance reconnaissance shows large troop movement in Driftveil City, Flare prepared an even bigger force to march through Nimbasa than last time. The Indigo Alliance however is asking for us to station ourselves in Black City to prepare the city defenses on the chance Flare forces make it through this time. All Snagems are asked to immediately report to the lab below HQ to meet with Sub for further instructions. And since I know you all love my quips; you're fat and lazy. Now go." GRAY blurted out rather harshly.
The Snagems would find Sub in the lab, a portion of it still converted into a sort of war room with a large map spread out on the table, this time one of just Black City. He seemed occupied by not just the planning for their defense of Black City as he looked over the map but always something going on behind a door on the other side of the room with random flashes of light going off behind it, the man occasionally looking over in that direction.

Rhyme and Zwei were busy preparing food for their Pokemon, the Pachirisu reading over the recipe book he'd been given, when the sirens went off. Zwei howled, hands over his ears, and Rhyme put her arm around him, ears pinned sideways.
"GRAY DONT DO THAT YOU BIG SILLY WE'D BE LISTENING ANYWAY." Zwei shouts after the announcement, whimpering. He gathers his small team and looks to Rhyme, and the two quickly put food away before they, together, walk to the labs, the boy following his female friend.
"Sub." Rhyme calls out to catch his attention, the Lillipup hybrid bouncing in and staring at the map with wide eyes. The hybrid was distracted by the random flashes of light, thinking quickly of the dark stone she'd been keeping in her pocket. Gently runs her finger over it, thinking of the one she'd been helping, and stands closer to the door on the map side. "How can we help?"
Zwei gets distracted by all the new people soon after, but knows to keep his tongue due to the seriousness of the situation. |

"Sonuva..." I muttered, picking the books I'd taken up and rushing to the library to put them away. Upon my return, Keiko and Absinthe were there along with a few others.
"Ready to go?" she asked looking understandably worried. We hadn't worked together on the war against Lysandre's forces since the war first broke out. I nodded, wrapped an arm around her, and let Rala out. Abby grabbed my arm, and thus was teleported with the rest of us.
Once the three of us were in the Nimbasa City Pokemon Center, I handed Keiko a couple of Heal Balls and Abby a couple of normal Pokeballs. "I'll show you how to get your own once we're done here. I should have done so before, but I've been preoccupied with research," I admitted. I then showed her how to turn a Pokeball into a Snag Ball using the Snag Machine Sub supplied her with, in case she ever had a reason to use one. With that done, we stepped outside to get a look at the damage so far.
