[X] My Assistant

[Douken Sota]

All bunnying has already been pre-approved with the characters in advance.

Flying with the Aerodactyl made a major difference when it came to travel time compared to flying above the Arcanine. Unless there was a pile of Snorlax rising higher than Mount Carello or the original size of the meteor that could of killed them, there was very little that could slow them down, let alone stop them. However, sometimes you do get some funny reactions. Like Sabre passing by another flock of Skarmory and his jaw dropping as one in the other flock cawed like crazy, as if laughing.

"Don't tell me that was the Skarmory you were trying to replace back at the farm." Bullseye as Sabre cried like crazy, throwing Douken off his back before catching his shoulders in the bird's talons. "Okay, okay, I get it. Nice set up for the Sky Drop though. You seemed to of been doing some practice."

Raising up, the bird let go of Douken before looping quickly and catching the human on his back again. That damn Xatu, Sabre thought. I'm really going to get that bitch...

With the sun quickly falling, Douken called to Pan, "Looks like night's coming. Might be a good chance to land and make camp while we can still see land this easily." The bird's have been flying nonstop anyways, so they must be exhausted as well. However, camp seemed to of found them as a rotating spotlight caught the trainers, which made Douken see what was going on.

Out on the mountainside was a light purple, four story building, stretched as long as 26 rooms (as seen by the windows) The top of the building seemed to of had a greenhouse touch to it, as all he could really see was green through the glass roof. Each end of the roof, however, had four rotating spotlights on each side and the center was set up with a helipad.

"Wonder what that is..." Douken muttered. "Hey Pan, wanna check it out?"

“You come back for us, Justin Smart. When this is all over, you come back for us.”

That was the last thing Pan said to Justin as he left for his mission. It may have been the last thing she would ever say to him. She watched him disappear into the darkness, on his way to make the world safer for their unborn child. He had something to fight for now: a future that would not be possible with a criminal organization in their lives. It was that thought that Pan knew that Justin would not be turned from his goal. With that knowledge, the researcher was able to retire in peace.

Morning came swiftly over the foot of Mt. Carello, perhaps too swiftly for the group inside the tent. Pan had stayed up later than the others; she had to send a message to the professor about her plans to leave Furoh. The tell-tale beeping from her pokegear woke Pan up. In anticipation of the reply, the researcher grabbed the device and read the email.

Pandora,

There is a research outpost outside Lenoilia for studying marowak breeding habits. The cubone are about ready to hatch, and I’d like you to study what goes on during that process. Consider it a stopover on your way to Barley.

We’ll talk about your leave in person.

Prof. Stone

Pan was a little surprised that she had been assigned to Lenoilia even after announcing her departure. The museum must have been desperate to get someone down there. Though she really did have to go home, Pan was still quite eager to have one last adventure in Furoh. While Douken continued to sleep, the researcher began gathering her things in preparation for the journey south. As he woke up, she broke the news.

“Hey sleepyhead,” Pan began, packing up the last of her supplies in her backpack. “I gotta head back to Lenoilia for a study. And I know you want to head north to get your next badge…”

She didn’t directly say it, but they both knew that they were at a crossroads. Their paths would lead them in separate directions, ending an era of adventure and friendship. She didn’t expect Douken to delay his dreams for her, but she was hoping for one last adventure together.

“Lord Deimos, the email interception was a success. She’s on her way.”

“Excellent. Have Dr. Mondo deliver the package to the outpost.”

Little did she know, Pandora Gibbs was about to have her own rendezvous with Team Deception…
