A random Furret pops out from a hole in the ground and points at Yarn sadly.

Furret: <I warned you bro. I warned you about telling children stories!>

Azalea Observatory

No sound comes from the inside of the building, despite the only light coming from the inside, a reddish color, being turned on. Nothing happens for a full minute, though then Woolly might be able to feel a very faint vibration in her body, in particular her tail and head jewel, as if something as small as a Joltik was gently trying to push them away.

The vibration comes from somewhere around the house.

????#1: <Oh then you are a visitor or perhaps you are loo->

????#2: ~pong~....~ping~

????#1: <-oh excuse me for a small moment?>

If she looked up right above the frame of the door, Woolly would be able to see small fangs showing off a small, open mouth, as their owner releases a supersonic call.

????#1: ~pong~

The figure then returns its attention to Woolly.

????#1: <...Uh, so perhaps you are looking for shelter? The human in charge of this building is busy in the [red room] so he didn't heard you knock.> -- the sound of small wings bating can be heard -- <Are you in a hurry?>

(After this call for help, gasp!)

Goldenrod, Police Dept

It is a quiet morning at the department while the pending cases of yesterday are being processed. A Typhlosion and a Mienshao, both wearing cop caps, are drinking something near one of the desks.

Stoatine Officer Stokes: <It has been very calm the last few days...> -- slurps -- <Not even the Murkrow are causing much trouble...>

Ermine Officer Errin: <Oh, it has been calm kinda everywhere. After what happened with Sinnoh, it's like the world is taking a rest...>

The two Pokémon continue drinking when suddenly the Mienshao senses something and turns to the door, gesture that his accompanying human officer follows. As soon as they do that, something bumps on the door which is then opened wide when a Leafeon charges in, a human and a Espeon walking behind.

Ichtacya -goes to a cop and barks: <Quick! This is a PEFE Emergency! We have to do something now!!!!>

Ichtacya stops and blinks, seeing some officers with tazers aimed at her and a couple of Pokémon watching at her with a mixture of anger and annoyance. Silent peeks in, walks.

Ichtacya: <...Well?> -- growls.

Random Officer: "Uh, calm down, calm down!" -- turns to Silent, who sighs -- "W-what's going on? Who are you?"

"Uh... PEFE staff, we have a problem."

There is a short silence, prompting Ichtacya to bark at Silent.

Ichtacya: <Show him that fancy card you have!>

Silent rolls his eyes then produces his PEFE badge and speaks in a monotone voice.

"This is a PEFE emergency, I need a teleporter mon ASAP."

Officer -raises an eyebrow: "...Oh, another one of those?"

Sol meanwhile examines the place and greets the Mienshao and the Typhlosion with a wave of her paw.

Sol: <...Does this happen often?> -- sits besides Silent.

Silent watches Ichtacya bark at the officer and tail him as he goes ask his superior for a teleporter mon. "Sort of," that's all he says.

Nidoran Colony, some minutes ago

While Rodríguez and Dëvich are building out the cabin for the weather station, a Nidorino is inside the tent with the materials, having some fun inspecting the various boxes with stuff, spreading the contents everywhere, sniffing and poking random objects, reminding himself of his times as a kit when he was taken to ye [olde] PEFE HQ and other places. At first he does not notice a Nidorina has leapt in through the small window-hole and sits nearby, smiling as she looks at him.

Maekrite finds a small bag that seems to have another bag inside. He sniffs it, senses something [familiar], if lost to time; his curiosity piqued, he forces his muzzle in to reach the inner bag and starts dragging it out, first carefully, but after seeing no meaningful advance, then with more strength, he roars and buffs as it seems the stuff above the bag is all too heavy.

Outside, the two interns are setting up a small computer, a newly produced Razz Berry φ, to control the operations of the weather cabin. They start debating how to give a good power input to the systems, as they need a power source that is reliable considering the area is prone to accidents due to rampaging mons and weather, and also pretty hard to reach from the city. At some point Rodríguez stops and listens, thinking he's heard something, but shrugs it away and returns to the conversation.

Inside the tent, Maekrite has finally opted for the wise, from a mon perspective, choice of tackling the pile of objects above the bag away. This has produced a noticeable noise and also increased the already hardly navigable mess of objects all around as the pile dismantles and the objects fall in random directions. Maekrite leaps aside evading a pair of badly bitten shoes and something round than rolls past behind him to crash against a toolbox, then pokes the last surviving object, a small red microscope, away.

The Nidorina sitting some distance behind him amuses herself with his efforts to pry the bag open, finally revealing a small box enveloped with a piece of fabric from a vest. The Nidorino sniffs the vest, ears flicker... it smells like himself, like his parli and marli but it's from long ago... most of what he remembers from that time is [warm] milk and a texture that he would later learn was of a large carton box.

Remembering something, Maekrite picks the vest fabric up, turns back to go for the bitten shoes, thinking that will allow him to remember. It is then when he sees [her] sitting by the other end of the tent, her eyes fixated on him. She eyes him and then turns her attention to the piece of fabric, and stiffens her ears in a curious, welcoming gesture. The male abandons his frantic research of all the boxes in the tent (yet still holds the fabric) and walks up to her for nuzzles.

Maekrite: <♥~>

Crerah: <♥~>

(After this post ~ping~)

The creature above the door seems to randomly move for a moment, as if examining something, then speaks down to Woolly.

????#1: <Should not be a problem to host an Ampharos for the night. Hang on, we'll call our human's attention.>

Before Woolly can inquiry anything, the [Zubat] leaves the door and flies to Woolly's shoulder. Then he opens his little mouth...

Zubat#1: ~ping~

Zubat#2: ~pong~

Another Zubat flies in to the group from a hidden spot near a well.

Zubat#1: <I'm Reydare>.

Zubat#2: <And I'm Sonare. Who is the Ampharos?>

Zubat#1: <Comes in looking for shelter. She looks nice and has this little tube or something on his hand.>

The two Zubats fly ahead and motion to Woolly to follow then as they go to a window from where a reddish glow is emanating.

(After this post)

Somewhere near Azalea

The two Zubats lead Woolly to a small window. Then they start rhytmically bumping on the window while screeching. This has the effect of triggering some noise inside the house, and after a moment the red light turns off.

Zubat#1: <Is he moving yet?>

Zubat#2: <Hang on...> ~ping~

The World: ~pong~

Zubat#2: <...The door is opening! Come on, let's move~>

The two Zubats now call Woolly to follow them back to the door, as the door is opening. A moment after, a man in a lab coat peeks out.

Lab Guy: "...Reydare? What's going on, little thing?" -- sees Woolly -- "...Uh? What might you be doing here"

(After this)

After some random commentary on not usually seeing Pokémon apparently abandoned in the area, the scientist goes to another room and returns with two dishes with food. He leaves one on the chair where the two Zubats are perched (they start screeching and flapping wings but don't move down to eat) and another one for Woolly.

Scientist: "Poor little Ampharos, you are quite far from your flock. Don't worry, tomorrow we'll take you to the town and there you'll get to stay in the Pokémon Center..."

Zubat#1: <That reminds me...> -- turns to Woolly - ~ping~

Woolly's body: ~pong~

Zubat#1: <What kind of object do you have there? I can only hear it's some sort of tube...>

(After this)

One of the Zubats flies around Woolly as she is led to the chair.

Zubat#2: <Really? What are the stars anyway? Every time I look up I hear nothing...>

Zubat#1: <And when we ping up nothing comes back...> -- flies down to his plate of food.

The scientist leads Woolly to the chair and goes for a notebook and a pen.

Scientist: "Now you are a very interesting Pokémon to have arrived here on your own. Here you'll stay with my friends the Zubats and you'll make me some company while I finish with the [negatives], what do you say?

He points to a door with a brown frame. There is a (currently turned off) red light above the door.

Zubat#2: <Oh, the room. He always looks at hanging paper when he is inside, and we take care of the house in the meanwhile...>

Zubat#1: <Yeah, any evil Houndoom could easily come in when you have a large gap on the roof...> -- returns to chewing his food.

The Scientist collects some documents on the table to make some room for Woolly and the Zubats. Among the documents there are constellation charts, a tech brief of the telescope, a printout of an [email], and some star lifetime graphs, among other things.

Nidoran Colony, (to be) Weather Station

Dëvich and Rodríguez, pretty much done with the construction of the cabin and the installation of the Razz Berry φ controller, decide to walk to the tent to start fetching some of the equipment as well as the weather vane.

When Dëvich enters the tent though, he is surprised as he is met with a mess. Everything is in disarray, sensors and boxes spread around everywhere.

Dëvich: "....What the------"

He starts looking around, trying to fetch some pieces of equipment and dragging them outside. A surprised Rodriguez enters as well, swearing he did nothing wrong.

As the two humans turn around some boxes to start moving some pipes, they see a certain Nidorino lying on the ground, in a sort of trance, his ears being nomed by a Nidorina by the side. She turns and sniffs at them, her discomfort at the interruption patent. Since the humans just stand there, she decides to stare at them.

Rodríguez: "Wait, wait, I can reach for my came-"

With only a growl for warning, the Nidorina hops ahead at their feet. Dëvich steps back a bit amused but the smile in his face fades when the Nidorina thumps a couple of times then starts making her spikes and ears blister in anticipation for an attack.

Dëvich: "Forget it, we can continue later. Silent is off in Unova anyway..."

The two humans step back and outside of the tent; the Nidorina stood there for a moment, ears flickering for a moment to confirm that the intrusion was ended. Content with the result, she sat on the ground for a moment. Maekrite stood up and went to sit besides her, their faces rubbing each other's.

Near the Entralink

Ichtacya carries Rascal(?) over to where Silent and the Kadabra from before are. She senses the Espeon's hesitation and confusion and wonders why doesn't he choose to put it in words, but that's not what matters now!

Ichtacya: <We came here to [rescue] him, but Sol says he already took off to Goldenrod.>

Sol -walks nearby: <Not on his own volition, mind...>

Ichtacya: <Anyway, we are taking you to Goldenrod now!> -- yips.

Silent asks Ichtacya if she is ready, to which she answers by simply pointing to Rascal(?). The trainer then gives the Kadabra a nod...

Goldenrod City -- Dept. Store

...and they are teleported near the gates of the Dept. Store.

Sol -looks around: <Well, at least we are here now...>

Ichtacya: <We are not done yet! We must [escort] Rascal back home!>

The Leafeon immediately starts carrying the Espeon away, the other Espeon simply looks up to Silent inquisitively.

"...You girls go have fun. I have to return to the colony and keep working. Sol, would you please explain to Rex?"

Sol: <I'll handle it. Buy me a book!> -- points to the Dept. Store, then walks away after Ichtacya.

Goldenrod Colony, one hour ago

Silent and his backpack arrive to the soon to be weather station, where some small devices are already running. The human takes a look at the cabin, which still lacks the actual window and door and has some wires sticking out of it. Dëvich and Rodríguez are there packing their stuff.

Dëvich: "Hey boss… how did it go? Was that emergency at Unova solved?"

"More or less..." Silent drops his backpack and recovers his Pokébelt from it. "It was kinda almost solved when I arrived. That tends to happen to me a lot."

Rodríguez -raises an eyebrow: "You at least got to do something?"

"Uh, Ichtacya did. She was pretty insistent at it. So... how are thins going around here?"

Silent sits around and takes a look while the two interns explain some details about the construction of the cabin and show off some of the devices, mostly the Razz Berry φ central unit. They show, however, their concern at how to give a reliable, permanent, clean power source to the small facility without impacting the habitat beyond the cabin.

Dëvich: "We would have finished sooner, but, er... Maekrite kinda made a mess of the tent..." -- rubs back of head -- "So we had to start sorting out the electronics from scratch."

Silent nods and stays quiet for a moment, resting. The aforementioned Nidorino peeks out from the cabin and goes sniff around, looking confused.

Rodríguez: "...We also had to tidy up the boxes with your old stuff you were moving boss... did not want to intrude in your privacy, but there was kinda no other choice..." -- points to the Nidorino -- "He kinda kept some of those things to himself, though."

"Ahhh... So he did?"

The three remained in silence for a moment while the interns kept picking up their stuff.

Dëvich: "Well, it's time for us to return to the city..."

"Don't worry..."

Silent observes the Nidorino frantically sniffing and scratching around, then smiles as he reminds himself of when the big Pokémon was just a little furball attacking such dangerous opponents as his shoes. Or worse, one of his colleagues's. At the end he took a look at the tent where some old boxes and a slightly rusted rabbit wheel were still on view..

"...Well I think I have an idea for the power source," Silent explains with a grin.
