MEANWHILE IN THE PAST!

A tall blonde man knocked on the door of an apartment door. Long day, per usual, at the organization, but it still gave him and others some downtime. And how did Baxter spend this time? Getting to know everyone for his shipping papers and fun times.

“Oooh~ Chance? You there, buddy? You’re not drawing too hard, are you..? Because I am so hard–” Hopefully that pun baited Chance to get the door before he spouted any more sex puns.

“Oh my Arceus,”Chance mumbled, red faced. He knew that voice. Epinogress-Baxter, the attractive older agent Chance had been lowkey avoiding for fear of embarrassing himself.

He quickly made his way to the door opening it and hissing,”C-can you not, sir? I have neighbors, a-a-and that kind of talk may uhm, give them the wrong idea.” So would letting Baxter in after that, and yet here he was standing aside to let him through.

“Es Espurr purr!” Came a frantic cry for help. A quieter scolding cry followed as a long haired man was pushed back down. Chance had hurt himself traveling, and his partner wasn’t going to let him aggravate that injury.

“I’m fine, Nick. Let me up.”

The Espurr shook his head and went back to crying for help.

((idk how long I’ll be back here ngl but I suddenly have a muse for this guy again))

“Yees~ Nick is a good name~” Baxter nodded and patted his Rockruff’s head, “This is Ruby, and over there-Mikey’s puppy- is Topaz~ Say hi, both of you!”

Topaz didn’t hesitate, but Ruby buried her head in her master’s arms, whimpering, “Aw-Ruby..its okay, sh shh~” He patted her head, happy as a clam, “Nick the Espurr? How do you do–”

“We passed the cafe.” Michael stated, watching them walk off from the entrance nad trying to bring his brother back down to Earth, “Or else I can go inside on my own and can fin-”

“Nonesense! I’ll do that! You two have fun! Toodles~” Baxter rushed inside, leaving the most quiet people alone at last. Michael didn’t expect it but..he guessed this worked.

It was an awkward silence, and even his Rockruff was whinig at the both of them to make some noises or talk! Finally the master was swayed and he started, “..So. What..kind of dreams have you been having that made you come here..”

“Espeeee!”Nick greeted happily. Nick was a good name. It felt good to have a name that set him apart from all of the other espurr. “Hi,”Chance echoed roboticlly. The reaction Ruby had didn’t bother him, it was the usual reaction for pokemon. Nick was weird.

Chance watched Baxter run off. He glanced over at Michael at the question.

“Dreams with Suicune and a forest,”He started,”It’s always the same forest too. I just don’t know where it is. And also an onion? I have yet to figure out if Real Suicune wants me to find an onion in this forest or eat onions more often....”

“Got cha covered~ We’re going to this really reeally reeeeeally good cafe that’s fantastic and has all kinds of food and sweets! And these uh…donut things! I forgot what they call them, but they’re so good that their Raichu changed from them! Isn’t that so rad? Maybe I’ll change from eating a lot of them! My Alolan form..aahahahahahaa!!!” Baxter howled with laughter, realizing that they were in town already!

“Oh oh! And what’s the Espurr’s name? I forgot about that little guy!” Baxter commented with Topaz barking in agreement!

Michael looked over at Chance. Memories are rarely lost like this in such a blank. Was he hiding something? He had to have been for looking miserable and emotionless. But he would save it until they ate or when Baxter was out of the picture for a little bit to stop talking.

“Aaaahh I’m so happy to have you back, buddy~” The blonde beamed once more, even putting a strong arm around the dark-haired, “It’ll be like old times. But hey! Good news is that I’m engaged, so you don’t need to worry about the flirts….well not too many at least hehe~”

“Okay,” was his only response to Baxter’s talk about being happy and engaged.

“His name? Does he need one?”Chance asked. He guessed he did since the question came up. He looked at the Espurr for a moment as if a name would appear over his head, before shrugging. “Nick. I’ll call him Nick.”It just felt right.

…

WELL NEVERMIND THEN. Michael sighed and decided to stay quiet. He was a fool to think that someone would connect with him on that workaholic level.

“It is!” Baxter nodded, just getting down on a solid path to the town. The pavement was nice compared to the rocks and the grass. “You’ll learn~ Maybe you just need some good food in you. Do you have a favorite? I know you hate asparagus haha~”

“I do not currently have a preference,” He informed,”I remember, however, that I used to eat pasta dishes a lot if that helps.” “Maybe one of you should decide on what we eat.

PREACH! Michael, for once, felt comfort in someone. Relaxing was pointless, and work needed to be done and-! Oh. He was getting ahead of himself. And not all relaxing was pointless. The officer cleared his throat, “Relaxing can be necessary…if you want to work more..” Spotting Topaz, he nodded in greeting while the Rockruff yipped in happiness. Her master was so cool!

Meanwhile Baxter hit his brother’s arm playfully, smirking, “Well YES to an extent! That’s why I’m the pro at having fun! I’m trying to get him to have some fun and relax for once. So..the more the merrier~ I’ll teach you to have fun and find your art skills, man, hahaha!” He laughed out, nuzzling and snuggling his pup.

“Anyway, Alola is the place of paradise, to relax! And embrace a wonderful and breathe-taking culture. There’s so many different things to do and to meet~ Aaahh Chance…this place is the place for you to chill~ Hehehehe~”

“I do not want to do work,” he corrected,”Work is supposed to get done.”

“Is it?”Chance questioned. He looked around at all of the scenery. He knew his past self would be awed by the sight. That he should be awed by the sight, but he wasn’t. “I’ll take your word for it.”

bloodxbrothers:

“Chance..” Both Baxter and Ruby seemed to whine for him. They saw that emotion! Even if it was just a little, they saw it! “…We all make mistakes, though. And its okay to follow what you think. Dreams are good to follow..as long as they are good..~” He smiled, trying to assure Chance that emotions were great and awesome!

Michael wasn’t having that, though. He bit his lip, thinking about what all that happened to Chance. If anything else, he was also thinking about whether this organization still existed! …Wait. No-he was investigating it a little. Arceus this was all so frustrating.

“Ah-otherwise! We’re almost there! We can have food and have nice chats. You know…relax! This is Alola after all~ You still know how to relax, hmm? Still draw..?” The blonde intervened in the thinking and smirked down at his old friend.

“Relaxing is rather pointless, isn’t it?”Chance asked,”It won’t get you anywhere.” Even so, he still followed to where they would ‘relax’. “What does Alola have to do with relaxing?” Really he should be figuring out what his dreams were leading him to. Or maybe following these two would be more concrete? “I have not had a purpose for art recently, no,”Chance said flatly,”Nor the tools to do so.”

bloodxbrothers:

At the mention of Suicune, something went off in both of the brother’s heads. Michael glanced up at Baxter while Baxter looked down to Michael. Suicune..come to think of it, Chance looked more Suicune-ish despite the scraggy, emptiness to him.

“..Why Suicune..” Michael started to ask, motioning for Topaz to come and to stop messing with the Espurr. The Rockruff followed obediently, but got bored and hopped down the volcano ahead of them. “..Chance you were gone for years..”

Baxter nudged his arm, though, “But-! We saw you-so we knew you weren’t dead! You escaped, right? In Kalos-!” The blonde exclaimed, trying to put things together.

It took Chance a moment to figure out that they were trying to put together what happened. He explained flatly, how he was captured while trying to rescue a child. That he was turned into a Suicune hybrid, and trained, how he ended up under the control of a different group, and they did something to him. What really got fuzzy was his escape, and the months following it.

“I felt compelled to follow the dreams though. I guess it doesn’t really matter if they’re from real Suicune or someone else. Or even just meaningless. It was....wrong to not be following anyone or anything.” And that folks, is the closest he’s gotten to having an emotion in literally years.

bloodxbrothers:

“No-no you are physically fine..ah here-are you hungry? We can head down this volcano-this is a wild place full of fire pokemon…” Baxter gulped worriedly at the two, “As soon as-”

A bark came from the background followed by a series of excited barks coming from Topaz-Michael’s Rockruff. The both of them ran around the blonde while Topaz hopped around the Espurr and Chance excitedly. A new human! And a cat! Oh..cat.

The Rockruff pup paused and wagged her tail to start playing and/or chasing the cat, excited about this. Ruby, meanwhile stepped back and looked up to the blonde with a light smile. “Roo..”

The engineer scooped her up and heard the limping cane in the background, “Hey, if you’re tired down there, I can send Gunther, bro!”

“Its…fine..” Michael huffed and finally glanced at…Chance-? “…Bedivere, Chance..What…what are you doing here.” He asked directly, squinting his eyes at the old agent.

“Somewhat,”Chance answered the blonde,”I will follow you.”

The Espurr climbed Chance like a tree when the new Rockruff came by. Chance didn’t flinch as he watched Micheal make his way over to them. He got a cane at some point.

“Currently? Talking to Ep-Baxter,”He remembered that the blonde told him to call him by his actual name. “Over all? I believe I am following the wishes of real Suicune. Or someone pretending to be so.” It didn’t really matter which it was.

bloodxbrothers:

Chance never used to be this forward. He used to be a stuttering nervous wreck, but now he seemed very much broken…and he looked like it. The image from the Espurr only confirmed Baxter’s worries. He glanced down at the Espurr and gulped,

“..Where did you find this Espurr? They seem to have a good idea what your memories were like..” He looked in between the two, scratching the back of his head, “Ugh…a lots happened in those years…I should have been more attentive to my teammates before quitting, aye-ya…”

“I mean, we’re definitely going to solve this…you don’t look healthy, man.”

“In Kalos...Several months ago. Psychic types can go through a person’s mind if you don’t stop them. They were there through my traveling as well.” “I do not? In what way can I look healthier?”He asked,”I will to change accordingly.”

bloodxbrothers:

Both Ruby and Baxter exchanged a glance at the odd behavior Chance was exhibiting..no emotions no..-

“Hm..Ruby~ Go get your sister and Mikey~” The blonde sat down the small puppy and patted her head, “You’ll be okay, you’re strong.”

The Rockruff whined a little at first but finally nodded and hopped off towards Michael’s direction. In the meantime, Baxter turned back to the shadowed “agent”, and with a less joyful, eager face, “…Somehow I knew you survived.. you escaped that place. After that you just…vanished. Did you just wander around places or..? I guess what I’m saying is-are you okay, now?”

“The wandering is new, however, I cannot remember what happened before that,”He explained. “I am healthy.”

The Espurr shook his head no, and conjured from his memory to Baxter’s that of Chance going on a rampage in forest of some sort until he was battered and bloodied from his own attacks. Then the image of Chance sitting still for hours on end as if waiting for someone. Chance wandering aimlessly expressionlessly through a city wear torn clothing covered in dirt and blood. “Espee....”

bloodxbrothers:

His eyes sparked at the mention of Chance, Bedivere and exploded at the image of Chance! With his other strong arm, Baxter scooped the man up and laughed out, “CHANCE! My man! What happened to you! You really let yourself go! Ahahahahahahaa!!! And in Alola of all places! LOOK AAA!” With swinging Chance around in one arm and his Rockruff puppy in the other, he was the most happiest man in the world again.

Well minus the day he got married to beautiful Bella for life <3

“AAA!” After a minute, Baxter finally put Chance down and patted his head, “Woah-yeah, you look like you’ve had it rough, what happened? What is-oh and don’t worry about code names, weee~~~~ quit! Hah!” For..some reason. That was kind of a strange mental block he kept going over. There WAS a reason but there kind of..wasn’t?

“Man..wait till Mikey sees you! A-and you see him! Ahahahaaha!!” He continued to laugh while the puppy in his arms shied away from looking at both Chance and the Espur, “Aw..don’t worry, Ruby, he’s okayyy~ They’re both okay, they’re friends~”

“Arf..” She gave a small whine, especially sensing that Chance was not right…something was off about him.

Chance perceived the hug as an attack, and his shadowy aura became visible as he prepared to retaliate. Sensing this, the Espurr used Psychic to keep him still again. He just growled at Baxter instead, at least until his name was called.

“Huh?”Was all he said, as the shadow aura vanished. “I...Was captured. And contained for years. They did...something.”There was no emotion in his voice or body language as he said this.

bloodxbrothers:

“No-Nooooooo!! Come back here!” Baxter flailed and chased after a Salandit with his trusty new Rockruff puppy. The pup barked excitedly at all these battles and findings but perked up at the scent of cat! At first she was excited but she soon shy-d away, “Aro…”

“What-what’s wrong, sweetie?” The large blonde haired stopped running and picked up the Rockruff, hugging her and catching site of an Espurr, “Es..pu–” But paused at being called his code name by a..hobo?

“Uh…sir? Are you lost..?” The affinite hopped over, “How do you know that name…?”

Meanwhile Michael had walked off quickly because of his Rockruff as well. He had found the excitable sister puppy that was very fearless. Which was terrible for the police officer and his leg, “S-slow down-!” He huffed.

“It is hard to be lost when one has no direction to begin with,”Chance answered.

“As for the second question...I am Chance. I was Bedivere?” He seemed slightly unsure about that last part. At the same time as he was introducing himself, the Espurr pushed an image of Bedivere that they had picked up to the front of Baxter’s mind.

Chance was in Alola. The Espurr that hung around him seemed excited at the plane ride there. The Espurr was sure as long as they kept moving they would find someway to help Chance. They were around a volcano now, the Espurr leading fearlessly. There were voices nearby. He ran ahead to check them out. What he saw: two men from his human’s memories.

He meowed excitedly to Chance as the Shadow caught up. Looking ahead, he too slowly recognized the figures. “Gareth? Epinogress?”He not so much called as tested the familiar names.

@bloodxbrothers

Suicune filled Chance’s dreams while he slept. They were really the only thing that kept him moving forward. He had made some improvement somehow, but he couldn’t remember how or who. He couldn’t much bring himself to care, and if it weren’t for the strange dreams pushing him forward he might have stayed in an empty apartment for a long time, following the same routine until he ran out of money. He didn’t really care about that either. He’s been finding himself all over the place. Currently, he’s in Kalos, by some castle. His dreams told him to come here. And without anyone else to listen to, he followed them.

Chance looked around, before hearing something running toward him from the tall grass. With a snarl, he started attacking with a Shadow Rush, but was frozen in place by psychic energy. The grass in front of him rustled a few times before a small Espurr pushed his way out of the grass, eyes glowing blue. They stared each other down before the Espurr set let him go gently. He sniffed the man’s pant leg, before floating up to eye level, and sniffing his face. Chance sniffed the cat’s face back.

“Ess!” The Espurr announced happily, as if making his decision. He rubbed Chance’s face with his cheek and a purr, before letting himself down. The Espurr had decided, he would help this strange human with his weird energy.

Wait..wait..! The moment she saw him get up and get the chips, Nichole widened her gaze and lightly smirked, “…Did..you see what you just did..?” Of course she noted the address in her head. It was familiar..especially since the memory of Key fawning over him was still in her head. Despite what he said, she was going to do this anyway.

“What..did you remember..? Just now..?” She gasped, getting excited.

unluckychance

“I remember things,”Chance reminded,”Were you referring to the address or the food?” He was confused about her expression. Was that excitement? Did he miss what he was supposed to be excited about?
