Twilight whined lightly as she lay there, several seconds after she'd made contact with the floor. She must've hit her hip bone or something. She looked towards the door, arching her neck to scrutinize Naga with a wince as he came in with a light reproof. Of course. She'd forgotten all about Angel. Hoping she hadn't woken up the sick individual, she got to her feet, holding out a hand to support Leviathan, to help him get up. "There! You see now?" She scolded Akina, who flattened her ears to her skull. She heard the door knock, as did the Evolution pokemon, and quite possibly Leviathan. Grabbing his hand, she pulled him upright, in a hurry to go see who it was.

Akina jumped to the floor when she was brushed off of Twilight's shoulder when she attempted her perch - she wasn't the only one who could throw a hissy fit - so contended with trotting slightly behind the girl. When she entered the room, she could see Naga standing at the door, and the glimpse of a girl peering over his shoulder into the room, while she could pick up slight stuttering. She tilted her head and appeared by Naga's side, Akina squeezing and pressing 'gainst her leg, looking up at the new arrivals.

Naga listened to Amber, taking notice of the studders in her voice before the psychic interrupted her a bit. "Would you mind if we came in to visit for a few minutes," she asked lightly. "It's a bit cooler out here than in your room." Not really seeing any harm in it, Naga took his hands from the door after pulling it open a bit. "Sure; why not..." He gestured his hand out, his salamence arm clearly exposed, as well as his tail. He had simply not remembered to conceal it, and Twilight hadn't remembered to yell it to him as he had approached the door. "Look at that," the psychic spoke in very light whisper to Amber, escorting the nervous trainer into the room as she peered to Naga's arm and tail, all before finding Twilight was there staring towards them, as well as Leviathan, who had gotten up when Twilight assisted him in the matter.

"It's a nice room you have here," the psychic spoke, noticing a light smile show across Naga's face. "It's a bit quiter than some other places," he spoke. "And after the few days or so we've had, it's a wonder of how quiet it'll be... But I'll not delve into that." He gestured towards Twilight and the group. "The girl, a nice trainer, at my side is Twilight, and standing beside her is the good Leviathan. And to her other side is the magnificent, fluffy Akina, who is mostly kind if you don't disturb her trainer with a sudden surprise by accident." "Now you tell me," Leviathan mumbled to himself in thought. "Would've been useful to know before she became a rocket and flew!" "And then there's Angel... My wife, but she's a bit ill right now, so you might meet her later." "Where's the scar... The crutches... And other things," the psychic whispered to Amber.

"I suppose we'll have to ask..." She then directed her attention to Naga. "It's nice to meet you all. My friend here is Amber; we're coming from a city near here after, well, a few incidents." Given her expression and Amber's nervous show, Naga was curious of their endeavours. "Can't be as bad as what happened to us, could it," he asked lightly. "Well, someone died near us," the psychic then spoke in reference to Kim. "Someone innocent, who didn't deserve such a cruel fate." "Or did she," the voice in Amber's mind itched, scratching at the back of her mind to attempt forcing her into deeper nervousness. "I see," Naga spoke, turning and pointing to his back. "Well, try being attacked by your own pokemon because they were forced." "May, can Amber see the injury," the psychic then asked, nudging Amber towards Naga's back when the trainer gave them permission. "Go on... See it... Maybe you'll not be so nervous if you see," she told her in whisper.

Amber was impressed by the ease the woman was able to hold a conversation, and she awkwardly stood next to the psychic while she and Naga spoke, not quite sure what social protocol called for her to do. It wasn't helping that the thing speaking in her head was heightening her current sense of unease, and her eyes kept darting back to the doorway. The man had a tail and the arm of a Salamence- how was that even possible? And why was the psychic so suddenly calm? She listened to all of the introductions, tried to put each name to a face: Naga was the human Salamence, Leviathan and Twilight were the two next to one another. She was worried about the said Angel, the psychic's whispers ringing in her mind. What exactly caused the 'illness'?

After the psychic spoke of Kim, Amber winced slightly, and her hand hovered toward Iris's Pokeball, the Luxray that had ultimately ended Kim's life. After being invited to see the man's injuries, Amber stood forward, still somewhat hesitant. She approached his back, and stopped, peering at him. She wasn't about to lift his shirt for him, so if he did want to show her, he'd have to do it himself. In all honesty, the group didn't seem hostile or evil by any sense of the words... but Amber was always careful these days, she had to be.

Amethyst suddenly shifted from Amber's shoulders and squeaked a quiet, and tired yawn before blinking awake and glancing curiously around the room. Her eyes soon fell to Akina, who seemed to be looking at her strange group of humans. Unlike Amber, this Pokemon had the intuition to know that the people around them did not want to cause harm, and she stood on her trainer's shoulders and in one jump, landed on the floor below. She padded cautiously toward Akina, appearing friendly and submissive considering it was rude to try and be dominant in another Pokemon's territory, and gave one wag of her tail. The two were in similar sizes, and they even had similar body structures. She was greeting Akina, thinking that it was about time she made some friends that were Pokemon not possessed by Amber.

Twilight blinked as Naga moved aside after some quiet words to allow the two inside. Tilting her head, she shifted her foot slightly to press against Akina's side. It seemed to be a familiar and frequent gesture the two did. One of the newcomers seemed...down. Sad, and broken, but definitely more social and better at interaction between the two of them. Just between Twilight and, well, Twilight, better than her as well, though she doubted Naga would have barred entrance to anyone. She giggled as he introduced them by turn; it was nice that he called her a nice girl, but the real stellar one was 'the magnificent and fluffy' Akina. Fluffy, yes. Magnificent? Ehh, not so much.

They seemed to be interested in Naga's scar that marked his back - a hideous reminder, Twilight remembered guiltily - and how he got it. Twilight narrowed her eyes as she tilted her head; how did they know of it? But if it was just to see...Twilight glanced at the closed door of Angel's room, where she lay resting. The quick eyes of the trainer caught of the movement of the fur scarf around the girl - Amber, was it? The companion hadn't been very audible - which, as it turned out, wasn't a fur scarf after all. It moved.

The grey being unfurled to a quadruped, with tints of red around it's ruff, much like what Akina had, its tail and around its head. A mensal pokemon much like her own Eevee, it seemed to lazily drift her gaze across the company before resting on Akina, who'd been eyeballing it for some time. The queer pokemon jumped down as Twilight wondered what it was, making submissive gestures as she neared. Not domestic, but tamed, as she clearly considered the concept of territories. Eevee merely shared space; they did not have territories.

Regardless, Akina wasn't the most docile of her race. Twilight knelt and placed a hand on the Eevee's back, feeling the light rumble of a growl. Akina had begun to bristle lightly, but it subsided when the pokemon neared. It meant to harm - at least not immediately - and that was fine in the Eevee's books. Indignation had turned to curiosity as Akina's nose woffled, round brown eyes wide with apprehension, but at the same time unable to rein in her inquisitiveness.

Twilight slowly released her Eevee who took a tentative step forward, ear twitching. She wasn't keen or eager to make friends, usually, but she seemed to be lenient this time. Making friendly advances, after a moment's hesitation she returned the wag, as she puffed up her fur, making her look bigger. Usually grumpy and mildly cynical, she merely reminded the new arrival that she and her trainer were not to be trifled with. Still, it wouldn't yet be many days before she'd be her friend.

Naga kept his gaze on Amber, seeing her wince and her unease. "There's no necessity for you to be nervous of us," he told her lightly. "He has that right," the psychic sighed to herself in thought. "I hope Amber grows to see that... At least fairly soon anyway..." He lifted the back of his shirt, exposing most of the injury on his back exempt a bit under the remainder of the shirt. The psychic turned her eyes lightly before focusing on Twilight, walking towards her and the duo of pokemon as Naga turned his head forward. The scars, a reminder of exactly what had been transpiring, looked as though they were healed, but still were horrifying yet inspirational sight, of sorts. "So, what happened that they're there," the psychic asked as she stopped a few feet from Twilight, Akina, Leviathan, and Amethyst.

"It's a bit of a story," Naga spoke lightly. "And I don't necessarily know if you'd believe it or not." "Trust me, after our dilemmas, I doubt we would find much fault," came the response, the psychic staring over to Amber. Naga stared over to Twilight, his gaze communicating a simple question; should he tell the story, or should she? And if so, what details other than the attack should they reveal? He wasn't necessarily sure if they should given that Amber and the woman were both strangers, but they seemingly had been through problems of light similarity to a few of their own. "I mean, that's if you want to," the psychic spoke, looking to Twilight while Leviathan stayed silent in the background. She took notice of what was possibly semi-healed burns on Twilight's hand and cheek.

"Sounds like there's been destruction... I like such, my dear," the voice spoke to Amber in her mind. "What was that vision you were told again..." It then chuckled. "Oh yes... A fire and explosion at a center I believe? It was vague, but take notice of those burns... It is true! The woman was right in her prediction... So is it very possible that his wife, Angel was it, was a pokemon? Is it possible she was the one forced to attack, and yet they have wed?" The creature that was in her mind wanted to see what would transpire if it meddled, and it tried to sway Amber to use her mouth to form questions and speak them. "Go on... Please don't resist my will; it's very possible, but it makes me dislike you more. Ask them... Ask them of the wife, of if she is an absol... Ask them of their trials... Ask; there is no means by which you can help but ask... You know it burns in your heart to deny the chance to help these people..."

"Yes, deny them like you denied us," one of the two voices before spoke. "Go on, ask! See if you can save them like you failed us! Go on!" A couple of barks echoed through Amber's mind after finishing, clearly the sound of an absol barking out; was it, perchance, the psychic's absol, the freshest of deaths set before Amber in the previous town?

As Twilight's gaze trailed down the marks across Naga's back, she felt a twinge of guilt before it swelled into an aching pang. Though she'd been told - and knew - that it was useless to leave, the wounds only reminded her of the reason she'd done so. If she'd never met them, would that have happened to him? Though she'd forgotten all about them, her hand flew to the other one, holding the burns lightly.

Though it did not ache - and had not done so for quite some time - she lightly traced her fingers across her shoulder, where claws had once buried themselves in flesh and bone. They hadn't been stiff for some time, so it had been so initially, the day she'd left. A lilting smile played across her face. So much had changed since those days. She looked back up to Naga, still crouching on her haunches.

She'd made new friends, practically family. She'd decided the fate of another person. She'd hurt her heart and hurt herself. And others. Her gaze reluctantly lay on Leviathan. He'd changed too, since his snake days. For one, he didn't quite drape himself on her shoulders and rub against her cheek, seeing as that was fairly impossible now.

She looked back at Naga, straightening up, as he looked inquiringly at her. She'd not really been following the conversation, but gave him the go-ahead, hoping that was the correct response. She averted her eyes to where Akina was still where she had been, curiously looking on at the queer pokemon.

After seeing Twilight's gesture, Naga had his response and began to roll with it. "Well, you see," he began. "I met Twilight in a previous town. Things seemed alright before we found that someone was being bullied by suspicious individuals. Some things led to others, and we then became involved in some weird situation involving an eevee and Surge. We're not quite 100% sure how everything ties into the deal, but we've been attacked... A lot... My pokemon was forced to attack me, hence the scars, and Twilight was almost attacked by her own. Somehow our pokemon ended up being like humans, exempt some obvious features, for a reason I don't think I know or can even recall... And somehow Twilight found two rings and offered them to me, telling me to propose to, well, Angel, who is now my wife after a month, I think, had passed... I did so, and even though her eevee, Akina, turned back into a pokemon, my wife obviously stayed human..."

He stopped momentarily, catching his breath before continuing. "And then we thought things would be calm a bit, but near New Years, we were in a pokemon center... Bombs were set off, and it was devastating; the roof was literally blown off of the place. I don't think anyone died in the explosions, but afterward we got sent to a motel... And now, after I think a few days, we're here, and we have a new friend with us," he spoke, gesturing to Leviathan, who had simply stayed silent as Naga spoke. Actually, he had sneakily taken Twilight's hand from a bit of fear; if Naga found out what he had really been sent for, what woudl he respond?

Amber wasn't quite sure how to process everything. She had always thought that misfortune was something that mostly only happened to her, but hearing the trainer talk about his and his companion's experiences, she wasn't quite sure. Just as she wasn't sure exactly how to reply. At least with the mention of marriage, perhaps they got a happy end after their ordeal. Her gaze swept those in the room, and though the pressure the voice in her mind was tempting her to burst out, she held it back. Instead, she could only force a slight chuckle. "Guess all of us together can cause the end of the world, then. My luck's about as bad as yours." She didn't want to explain, though, she wasn't as easy to relay things as Naga was... how could she say it, anyway? That everyone around her dies, that she's being attacked by something, that it's trying to drive her insane just like... just like the adoptive sister she ultimately caused to die. She couldn't find the words... could only hover her hand over Iris's ball and send the Luxray out to further the crowded room.

The electric type Pokemon at the moment had a medical patch over her eye, and she stared at the group with a slight apprehension, the fur around her mane began bristling. She noticed Akina and Amethyst meeting one another, but she chose to stand by her trainer. The patch around her eye was quite clear, as well as the still-singed fur that lay ragged around where the patch couldn't obscure it. The dry, matted blood was washed away for the most part, but the skin still lay raw where fur hadn't yet been able to grow over. It was a clear enough show that Amber and her Pokemon, too, had been through a lot.

Amethyst, too, was quite docile, and she showed no signs of hostility when Akina began to puff up. Instead, she crouched down so that her tail was high in the air and the front of her body arched into a bow, a stance offering the mischievous game of chase, common for dogs. Her eyes gleamed and her face remained friendly. It had been a long time since the Tenebris socialized without the pressing worry of danger around every corner. It was a great, but temporary relief.

Twilight, for once, listened to the story, with a placid expression on her face. She did not jump as someone's warm hand slid into her own, for she knew it to be Leviathan, but not because she felt it, but because she saw him. She couldn't feel anything. She was reliving the horrifying nightmare as Naga's voice rolled on. She would have decided that Naga was a good story-teller, but her hand had begun trembling lightly as she pressed her lips in a line. Once again, guilt pressed down on her, crushing her spirit. Grief was not as painful as guilt, but it took more away.

Had she, perhaps, by the slimmest of chances, known that misfortune befell her? Could she have done something to prevent it? Told Naga and Angel, so they never would have been in the Centre when it blew up. And she knew who was behind it; why had she not taken action? Yet, deep in her heart, she knew why, but denied it with all her strength. Because she didn't want to. Why...why couldn't anyone else do it for a change...?

Her lower lip trembled, which passed in a sharp, short burst through her body when a Luxray appeared. Immediately, clearly she could see that something was off with the pokemon. She wore a large patch over an eye, shielding an injury. From the burn marks around the path - she'd treated so many of those back at home - she could verify certain amount of tissue damage that commonly accompanied burns.

Because secondary bacterial infections are common in the burned areas, antibiotic medications are given and an antimicrobial ointment may be applied. Medications for pain are typically given. Few injuries were as traumatic, painful and disfiguring as burns, especially in pokemon. With a light start, she realized that her own injuries were surfacing, her shoulder beginning to ache. Delayed response to the falling around she had taken back in the room because of Akina.

Akina. The word formed silently in her mouth, she smiled down at her Eevee, who seemingly turned around at the same time to meet their gazes. And yet, the Eevee knew. What the girl had gone through was something no one should ever, in their lives. One would not wish this fate upon their worse enemy. Yet, she had greater matters at hand.

The Evolution pokemon turned back to her new companion, who lacked the gentility, gentleness and genteelness of Angel, being younger, but yet had the same intention - friendly ones. Akina slowly relaxed as the Tenebris begged to play - a very familiar, and a great game at that - before complying with an enthusiastic wag of her plumy tail. She darted forward to gently press her paw against her companion's nose before darting off. She had the home field advantage~

Naga, after settling down again and turning around to face both Amber and the psychic, felt a bit off as he stared at Amber. What was going on through her mind? She seemed to be a bit worried, even if it were possible she were trying to hide it. "It seems we've all been through a bit of misfortune some point along our adventures," he thought to himself. "Disregarding the difference in severity, it all has yielded the same impact..." He looked towards Leviathan and Twilight before the room darkened a bit, any sunlight in the windows fading as clapping echoed through the room. "I see we have some new companions," a voice spoke out to Naga and Twilight, though mostly to the latter. "Trying to build your defenses, are you?" Naga looked over to Twilight, Leviathan doing the same; the former was worried for the trainer, while the latter was worried about Surge just being there and what he would say.

"Twilight... You know that it's not going to be of much help, correct? I know your every move, almost." The gym leader, Surge, then revealed himself, stepping inbetween the group of trainers and pokemon. "I know you wanted to relax," he began, sarcasm in his voice. "But I just couldn't bring myself to permit it. Especially not after how much we've been through together." He laughed lightly as he patted Twilight's shoulder, in particular the one that was aching. "I hope you enjoyed the fireworks a few days or so ago; I planned them just for you..." He then turned to Amber and the psychic. "Listen here; stay with them, you'll get burned. Try and help them, I might just do worse." He pointed a finger at Amber. "I can tell that you're nervous a bit, afraid and wondering when disaster will strike next. I can make that disaster happen girl."

[Note: Surge is under influence of some aura, so it makes entire sense he can 'sense' Amber's discomfort o3o; that and I needed some way to drag Amber into the EVE project o3o]
