Day 13 - [Text] | [Action] for Ecruteak Inn

[babel_hacker]

[When he woke up, Atsuro was surprised to see Asterisk with a Plusle. A very familiar Plusle who looks rather sad.]

Wait...Kodama? [The Plusle nods, confirming his name, but Atsuro only grew more worried.] Why are you here? Where's Ted?

[Instead of answering, Kodama just look upset and even sadder. Asterisk hugs him, while her trainer was confused.]

Okay, I'll call him right now.

[Grabbing his PokeGear, he try to connect to Ted: THE NUMBER YOU ARE TRYING TO CONTACT IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE]

What...?

[Again, he try to reach for Ted. A part of him already know what this mean, or suspected.

THE NUMBER YOU ARE TRYING TO CONTACT IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE
THE NUMBER YOU ARE TRYING TO CONTACT IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE
THE NUMBER YOU ARE TRYING TO CONTACT IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE]

...Dammit, Ted.

[TEXT]
Unless this is a bad joke, I think Ted's gone. His Plusle, Kodama, is with me.

[It's the first time he personally deal with this, so he feels...rather down enough to stick to text. He's not sure how well his self-control will last with video or audio.]

Comments

[babel_hacker]

I'm sure. I tried calling for him.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

I see. Odessa is with me.

[ A very upset Odessa. Lacus had to cradle her to sleep. ]

[babel_hacker]

Odessa? I remember her. His Eevee?

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

Yes. And she is very upset.

She won't eat.

[babel_hacker]

Not surprised that she's upset.

But she still need to eat.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

I know. And I am worried.

I care too much for her to simply watch this continue.

[babel_hacker]

Good thing she came to you. I don't want any of his Pokemon to be just out and wandering alone.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

I pray I can do a good job though.

[babel_hacker]

I'm sure you'll do great.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Is Kodama alright?

[babel_hacker]

He's alright now since he calmed down.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

I hope Odessa will too. I feel so helpless seeing her this way.

[babel_hacker]

Just try and support her.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

Yes. Thank you. I will not give up.
