Day 31 - [Action] | [Video] 4th Wall!

[babel_hacker]

[It’s another normal day for Atsuro. By this point, he’s gotten used to Vermilion and using his time to both train his Pokémon and earn money. As an adult, he have to work adult hours, so he have to make the most of his free time.

Before he leaves for work, he went outside of Vermilion after breakfast to do some early training in Route 7. Antec the Lanturn doesn’t need the extra training, but Atsuro brought him along out of fondness and safety precaution. The Pokémon he’s about to train, his lower levelled ones, aren’t as strong as his main team.]

...Hm? Something the matter, Antec?

[As his starter and first Pokémon, Atsuro have long since learned how to read and communicate with Antec. Yeah, he can speak Pokémon, but they can still tell each other what they need to.

He looks from watching Bufu’s training to Antec, noting the wary expression in his trusted partner’s eyes. Glancing up, his eyes gaze around them carefully.

Until something jumped out.

When he turns on his PokéGear's video feed, sounds of roaring and battling can be heard coming through the speakers.]

Hey, guys, be careful around Route 7 outside of Vermilion. Dunno how, but there’s some demons around here—Antec, Ice Beam!—from my world, so be careful.

[People can come to check things out, either during one of the skirmishes with a demon or after the battles. If it’s afterwards, Atsuro can be seen talking with a Cerberus with his Nintendo DS COMP in his hand.]

[ Aradia will be popping in for one of the skirmishes, although not on purpose. In addition to being a godtier troll again (icon relevant) she's been cursed with random teleportation. She seems to be taking it well, though.

She'll time-stop anything that comes at her, but will otherwise be looking at everything curiously and trying to figure out with the help of her pokedex if these demon things are pokemon.

She's still a little new. Want some demon-fighting help? She's not a demon, she swears. ]

[ hey, atsuro. do you see that haori in the distance? with all the matrix number? sure does look familiar, doesn't it. did you by chance make eye contact with those eyes, only for there to be some kind of cocky grin and then movement, when naoya turns and walks away?

looks really familiar, doesn't it.

try to keep up, if you feel like chasing! ]

[...Well, Ondorus doesn't know what route this is, and his little monster herd doesn't really seem to care, so it should make a nice-

-WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE OH GOD it's okay woolies get behind me, I'll just...take care of this with a few high-level elemental spells...

what is going on here]

[Rin had been wandering around per usual in an effort to train his team when he realized three things at once: he was somewhere on Route 7, he felt normal, and his pokegear was on. Atsuro's message came in loud and clear, but there was only one part that mattered most to him.

He ran in the direction of the battle, but whether or not he could really help would be up to Atsuro. Despite his training and various experiences, Rin hadn't enough to do much more than strike recklessly. And without his sword, he'll be reduced to punching everything. With his strength returned, it was the best weapon he had - if one were to discount his flames, that is.

Even though Atsuro told him once about how he knew fighting moves like some protag from a shonen manga Street Brawler, he had yet to see that action in person. ...And this was just as good a time as any.]

['sup. Minato wasn't sure how or when, but she suddenly found herself standing in Route 7. Meaning that she probably teleported within the vicinity of Atsuro. She also found her naginata and Evoker along the way... somehow.

Hmmm, those things are demons? Wait a second...]

Whoa! They look like Personas!
