I'm so sorry everyone! Work has been busy and stressful, life has been busy and stressful! Please forgive me, I never forgot you guys. >.<;;;


You think it over for a few moments, but you start to worry as the Ninetales beings to eye you over, licking her lips and drooling slightly. Shrugging your shoulders, you toss the bone at her.
“Yay!” The fox leaps into the air and catches the bone between her jaws, gnawing on it eagerly. After a few moments, she looks up at you. “Go ahead, pick something while I enjoy my snack.”
As the fox cracks the bone club in half and starts gnawing on one of the sharp edges, you look over the inventory. Finally, you make up your mind and reach up, grabbing a black berry with yellow spots. The label underneath it says “Mega-Evo”. You hold it up for a moment and then grin. As a Flygon, you’ll be a much bigger threat! Maybe that fox will even find herself on the menu!
You toss Aemi your money and throw the berry up in the air. Your body shivering with anticipation, you give a little hop and gulp! Down it goes! This is gonna be great!
Having played way too many video games before becoming a Pokemon, you can’t help but hum the evolution music in your head. Slowly, starting at the center of your chest, your body begins to glow with a bright white. Finally, it becomes too bright for you to see anything as you feel your body growing longer and longer…. You can’t wait, Flygon time!
Finally, you give a little hop as the world focuses again and you’re able to see once more. You turn and look up at Aemi… look up… Wait, you’re not a Flygon! You bend and look at your new legs, your new tail and your new wings. Dang it! You forgot about Vibrava!! What a load!
Aemi snickers as she gnaws on her new chew toy. “What’s wrong, did someone forget their evolutionary chain?” She grins as you stick your tongue out and blow a raspberry. “Look, it’s not my fault. You just need to go out and do some more work.”
Work? Work! Crap, you forgot that Shade was waiting for you. He could be even more pissed off now! With a yelp, you grab your change from the Ninetales and take off down the hall as fast as you can.
Pausing outside of Shade’s door, you gulp heavily. Great, you just evolved and now you’re going to get eaten. Opening the door, you step into the pitch black room and are greeted with a groan. “Close the door!” the dragon roars.
You close the door behind you, the room completely illuminated by glowing purple candles. Shade is laying in the middle of a large bed of assorted vegetation with a thing of ice on his forehead. “What do you w- Oh, you evolved. Congratulations.”
“Uh, Sieglinde told me you wanted to see me, sir?”
The Giratina stares at you for a moment and then blinks. “Oh yeah, I have a mission for you to take. Sorry, I know I normally let you do a choice, but I kind of lost a bet.”
You snicker at the dragon’s condition. “Yeah, I heard. Someone can’t handle their liquor.”
“Hey, I only drink on my hatch day and even then, nothing that strong!” Shade growls. “Look, you need to go down to Fish Town on the coast and look for a bird named Mack Fearow. Make sure you call him Captain and compliment his stupid hat. Just tell him that I sent you, alright?”
You nod at the Giratina. “But why me, sir? Wouldn’t someone like Sieglinde be better suited for the job?”
“Look, the Captain is a bit… eccentric. I figured if anyone can handle crazy, it would be you.”
Unsure as to whether that was an insult or a compliment, you nod and turn to leave. “One more thing,” Shade calls. “Don’t take your new little girlfriend with you. I have some jobs for her too. You have to go alone, sorry.”
You step back out into the main hall where Sieglinde is waiting. “I can call your ride now if you’d like. Unless you have something else you’d like to do first?”
