In the impossible, supernatural darkness that lay on the city, Greed was lost. His eyes were better than a human’s, but even that wasn’t enough to find his way. So he huddled safely against a wall, out of the footpath of other citizens, until he could find his way home. 

Familiar footfalls caught his attention, and he swiveled, trying to find the source. A dog, slightly on fire, but seeming unbothered by it, burst into view. Greed couldn’t quite help but laugh. What was it about dogs that he kept running into them whenever he felt lonely?

“Hey, bud. Some night, huh? You look like you had a day.” Soon enough, another voice joined the one-sided conversation. He looked up to see someone he could only describe as extravagant. “Oh, uh, yeah. This your dog?”

          Hephaestus seems content to stay sitting with the man, which means that at the very least, there is no immediate danger. She barks at the sight of her trainer, and Avalon smiles. “She’s mine, yes. Likes to go off on her own, hm?”

Another bark, both pleased and a little challenging. 

          “However... Sitting here might not be the best idea. My friend here almost stepped on you by accident, I’d hate for him to hurt someone because he can’t see them.”

They motion towards Thanatos, looming over the three of them, who grunts in agreement. He cares little, but he knows Avalon would have a conniption.

“Perhaps it would be a better idea if you tagged along with us for a while instead?”

          {♠} —; Exploring on his own since the blackout wasn’t the smartest move Ouma had made. Though it was prime time for mischief, it was also certainly terribly dangerous. With all the city running amok in the dark, who knew what kind of murderer would come after him? It’s not exactly like he had a gang of people to follow his every whim and will. Not this time at least.

          {♠} —; Hands held behind his head, casual steps would be taken into the dark, with only the brisk air following behind him. Step by step, thinking of whether or not he should break into a house for shelter. Step by step, until one lackadaisical step in the darkness lead him into the inevitable surprise that took him by the leg.

          {♠} —; “Oh no! It-it-it’s some kind of monster! It’s going to eat my leg off! Someone help me before I get murdered!”

          Perfect. Nothing beats getting to scare the life out of someone every once in a while, especially since before this, Bastet was cooped up in that dusty old League building. Honestly, being a prime Elite Four member can be so boring!

Her cackling is interrupted by a loud bark, and she knows Hephaestus has shown up to rain (or flame?) on her parade. Begrudgingly, the weavile lets go, landing on her feet, expression sulky. She’s been found, so Avalon should be here any moment now.

          They do show up moments later, as expected, panting, and Avalon can’t help but think they should have kept an eye on how fit they are.

“You awful little menace. Stop trying to scare children.” Bastet is scooped up and handed to Thanatos for safekeeping, and she makes a pitiful meow before Avalon turns to her victim with an apology. “I’m sorry about that, she means no harm. Are you all right? Should you even be out like this?”

They may not be very good with the youngins, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be concerned.

          In hindsight, letting Bastet take off on her own was probably a bad idea. Now, she’s not ill-natured, but she is a menace to strangers and shiny things, and Avalon can’t help but hope that she doesn’t happen upon some poor hapless fool.

          Of course, hoping has never done anything before, and Bastet knows this damn well. With the oppressive darkness giving her the perfect cover, she moves silently, swiftly, bright eyes searching for the perfect victim. It doesn’t take her very long to find someone, seemingly alone, seemingly young, and while youngsters don’t have a lot of shinies in her experience, even just scaring the living daylights out of this kid would be worth it. 

She’s on the prowl now, low to the ground, inching closer, closer, until she can latch onto a pant leg and clamber up from the back. Surprise!

          Avalon had finally procured a candle for Hephaestus to light, and with that bit, they could find their way around the scrambling city without needing their poor hellhound to burn herself out lighting the way for them. With that knowledge, she and Bastet had ran off to explore with a very stern talking-to under their belts.

Thanatos, reserved as ever, looms over the trainer as they make their way through the maze, off towards where the others had taken off to, and Thanatos only barely avoids stepping onto some poor soul huddled against the wall of a nearby building, talking to, well, Hephaestus. Curious as ever, she is, and Bastet is nowhere to be seen.  

          “Uh, hey, are you like, good?” It’s somewhere between an actual and a rhetorical question at this point, mostly just relieved that their tyranitar did not just squish an actual person.

          The last thing Avalon would have expected upon waking up from a nap in their Elite Four chamber is to have been put smack dab in the middle of nothing but an oppressive darkness. The initial reaction is to wildly feel for poké balls that should not even be attached to their belt, both relieved and concerned to find three resting snug on the magnets.

Releasing the pokémon from their resting places reveals the silhouettes of Thanatos, Hephaestus and Bastet. The first thing to go through Avalon’s mind is that if things were to go terribly awry, Thanatos would be the perfect shield. The second is that their darling meowth, Princess, is nowhere to be found, and they pray she’s safe. Bastet and Hephaestus’ eyes glow a dim red as they observe their trainer, and Avalon nearly hesitates a moment.

          “Heph, breathe some fire, maybe we can find something else to see with.” The last thing they’d want is for their houndoom to exhaust herself lighting up the area, if that is at all possible.

Upon the command, an audibly deep breath is heard before a gout of fire is spat out, lighting up the area reasonably, and almost catching someone else on fire. Oops!

Welcome to the city of Septaneus, Avalon! You’re going to be housed in Asphodel Apartments 4A. You of course get to keep your pokémon, but we do have a few rules that you should be made aware of!

Where you do indeed get to keep your entire team here, we insist that you only keep three pokemon on you at a time. There rest will all be taken care of in Daffodil Academy, and you can switch your team around either at home or at the academy itself! Don’t worry about them though, Daffodil’s spent plenty of time taking care of Pokémon. Even in uh… times of crisis like this, they’ll be fine.
