Sandgem Town 1: Digital Introduction

[Ninetalesuk]

Sandgem Town...

Home to Professor Rowan, Sinnoh's leading Pokemon Researcher. His home lab sitting in the middle of a beautiful countryside where it's surrounded by Pokemon of different sizes...

@alphamon@

"We're here..." He said as they landed nearby, placing his hand on the ground.

@thomas@

"Thank you, Alphamon..." He said, getting off.

[AnT]

@jun@ "What? Wha?" Jun looked everywhere, surprised to see the familiar little town...already here. It felt like Sandgem was just right around the corner. "We're here already?"

@casualjenny@ "Well we DID get here FAST, kid." And the police woman leaped off Alphamon's hand.

@jun@ "I knew that!" Grinning, Jun stood and proceed to walk off...but since he didn't take an account that the first step would be pretty steep, Jun fell right on his face. "Ow...."

[Ninetalesuk]

@alphamon@

He reverted to a suitable size, glancing around. "What a beautiful countryside..."

@thomas@

"I agree... so, shall we meet Prof. Rowan?"

[AnT]

@jun@ And like that, Jun leaped up to his feet, acting like he never fell flat on his face. "Oh yeah!!" And he blasted off to the door.

@casualjenny@ Rubbing her head, Jenny walked next to the young man. "Where does he get all that energy?"

@jun@ Hammering the door, Jun did rapidly. "YO!!!! Prof!! You there, dude?"

[Ninetalesuk]

@thomas@

"I wonder where he gets that too..." He muttered.

The door slowly opened up...

@luxray@

"LUXRAY!!!"

@leafeon@

"LEAFEON!!!"

@mightyena@

"YENA!!!"

For three different Pokemon to leap out and pin Jun to the ground...

@alphamon@

He flinched. "Nice welcome..."

[AnT]

@jun@ "AAAAGH!!!" The boy helplessly was pinned down by all the welcome that is Pokemon. "MAN!! COME ON!! GET OFF!! I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH LOVE!!!"

[Ninetalesuk]

@rowan@

"Ahem!"

A stern cough caused the three Pokemon to back off from Jun.

@rowan@

"Sorry about that, Jun. They thought it was Lucas... they've been waiting for his return since he and the others are coming back tonight..."

@luxray@

"Lux..."

@thomas@

"Forgive me, Jenny, I forgot to mention... there are others who have knowledge of Digimon like me in this world and Prof. Rowan will be bringing them here..."

@rowan@

"Officer Jenny? I thought it was only you and Jun, Thomas..."

@thomas@

"She believes this group is behind the Digimon problems for their own needs..."

[AnT]

@casualjenny@ "Uh...yeah..." The green haired woman slowly stepped up to the old researcher. "Team Galactic I'm sure you're familiar with?"

@jun@ "Man! No love for the Jun!" He muttered, sitting on the floor.

[Ninetalesuk]

@rowan@

He nodded. "Of course... that's why they came here... And believe me, Officer... they don't want Team Galactic's plan to happen..."

@thomas@

"Plan?"

@rowan@

"It's best you come inside..."

@alphamon@

"Very well..."

@rowan@

"Ah, so you're Alphamon, hmm? You look like an interesting knight..."

@alphamon@

"Thank you... I guess..." He chuckled.

[AnT]

@jun@ "Dude, can you even fit through the door...even in mini-mode?" After asking that, Jun raced inside.

@casualjenny@ The sight of the child's hyperness was irritating Jenny as she walked inside.

[Ninetalesuk]

@rowan@

"So, the large Pokemon was Giratina?"

@thomas@

"Yes..."

@alphamon@

"I've learned he was part of a trio of Dragons..."

@rowan@

"Yes... however, the other two dragons is what Team Galactic are after... for Cyrus to reshape the entire world in his vision..."

@alphamon@

"What?!"

[AnT]

@casualjenny@ The woman, crossing her arms, leaning on the frame of the door. "Dragon Trio...I think two of them are the ones that created this world. But knowing that wacko plan from Cyrus...doesn't surprise me one bit."

[Ninetalesuk]

@thomas@

"Why's that?"

@rowan@

"The other two dragons represent Time and Space..."

@alphamon@

"I see... how does he plan to get to them?"

@rowan@

"By capturing three Pokemon known as the Mirage Pokemon... Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie... which he has already done... however, it seems that he's holding his plans back because of the Digimon..."

@alphamon@

"With many Digimon around, he might have plans for them..."

@thomas@

"What about these people who is at...?"

@rowan@

"Canalave..." He said before holding out a piece of paper to Jenny. "These are their names... if you would like to read them..."

[AnT]

"Hm..." The woman took the paper, and began looking at it. "Ash Ketchum...Wasn't he one of the Kanto Hall of Fame'rs?...Dawn Berlitz, Lucas...That last name is smudged...Hikari Kamiya, Marcus Daimon, Jeri Katou, and Taichi Yagami."

"Dude!! Freakin Ask Ketchum?!" Jun swung his fist with total excitement. "I am SO gonna battle him when I see him, and whup the floor with him!!"

[Ninetalesuk]

@rowan@

"I think not, Jun... Lucas battled him. However, their fight was intruppted and... well, Lucas said he lost with 2 Pokemon left while Ash still had three left..."

@thomas@

He stared at Jenny. "Wha... What was that...? Marcus Damon?!"

[AnT]

@casualjenny@ Again, she looked at the paper, as if with less enthusiasm. "Hm...yeah, Marcus Daimon. You know him?"

@jun@ "Peh! Dude, that was Lucas Sir-Knows-Alot! This is me!" Grinning, Jun made a heroic pose, acting like he had a flowing cape.

@chatot@ "BRAWK!!! This is me!! This is me!!" chanted Jenny's Chatot, fluttering around Jun.

@jun@ "SHUDDUP!!!" And the boy rapidly tried to swat the speedy bird.

[Ninetalesuk]

@thomas@

"Yes... Marcus is one of my friends... who was in our Digital World before he and his partner vanished... including mine..."

@rowan@

"You're in luck, Thomas... if your partner is Gaomon, then he's with them at the moment..."

@thomas@

"R...Really...?" He sat down with a sigh. "Thank goodness..."

@rowan@

"And Jun, I know you've lost 5 times to Lucas... he was able to overcome your own skills with his careful thinking..."

[AnT]

@jun@ "Hmph!!" With a pouty face, Jun turned away and folded his arms.

@casualjenny@ "So..." Jenny stood off from the door frame. "You're not suggesting that you're going to face Team Galactic? The police force did," Jenny thumbed at Jun. "Told his little friends to not get involved any more. Of course...I'm pretty sure Cyrus bribed them to..."

Another reason why she joined with this merry band. The police aren't going to do a thing from under the green pile that snake gave them. The thought of getting fired if the force sees her with these people became less of a concern.

[Ninetalesuk]

@rowan@

"I'm afraid we have to confront them sooner or later..." He said. "I know we'll be arguing against the police force, but..."

@alphamon@

"There could be officers in Veilstone City who are corruptable..."

@rowan@

He sighed. "It wasn't like that until Cyrus took over... I'm thankful the Veilstone Gym Leader and her followers haven't gone down that path..."

@thomas@

"Any idea on how to return those Digimon back to where they came from?"

@rowan@

"Prof. Oak explained it to me... by the power of Digivices called D3. Do you have a D3, Thomas?"

@thomas@

He brought out his Digivice. "Yes, but it's not called a D3... It's called Digivice Burst..."

@rowan@

"I see... Hikari, or Kari as she is known to call, can use this D3 to turn Pokeballs into Digiballs, the only thing that can catch Digimon and return them to the Digital World..."

@thomas@

"Just as long as these Digimon won't Digivolve..."

[AnT]

@casualjenny@ "Digivolve?" Jenny hardly held a smirk. "As in another term for 'evolve'? Why not just simply 'evolve'?"

@jun@ "Uh...shields them from trademarking lawsuits?" *Comedic drum roll*
