As he awoke, Rayce looked around. He saw nothing different about his home, but felt something was off. Soon, Rayce disregarded the feeling and climbed out of his bed to start the day. He, although confident and hard working, was not ready for the day of loading and unloading ships that was in-store for him. He had joined the eon duo about a week beforehand but still hadn't met his destined partner. The Latias to his Latios. He was starting to think that the dream he had was just that, a dream. And that all of the powers he had gained were just part of a placebo effect. At any rate, he got ready, went out to the harbors of slate port, and punched in for the day.

"Yea go ahead and cry about." I spat at the trainer kneeling beside is beaten pokemon, but not just beaten in battle. I mean beaten with scars, bruises and blood decorating its body. "Good work Zoe." I said to the Zoroark who was slightly crouched with her claws spread out in front of me. She roared once more before straightening up and walk back to my side, "Remember this pain. Let it sink in because its the only truth in this world. Accept it." I said as I turned my back on the teen, he couldn't be more then fifteen and judging from the sniffling sounds he was making, he was actually crying. A smirk crossed my face as I shoved my pockets and walked away from the docks with Zoe. Zoe and I had arrived in Slateport the night prior and had been causing misery the moment we stepped off the boat. I had been to Hoenn before, but last time I had to go because I was being chased by a group of trainers I had apparently pissed off. I wasn't one for fighting ten trainers when I didn't feel like I would win. Now I'm back to pick up where I left off. Maybe even find a good fight which I so desperately lusted for, the only thing that pleased me more was fighting a strong opponent in a great battle.

As he worked, Rayce lost himself by looking toward the sea. Loading boxes can get repetitive as it is, so he did his best to keep himself entertained by just thinking. Though, as he looked out to the ocean, he saw a Pokemon battle commencing on the other side of the docks. "Gah, kids. I'll let someone else get it." He murmured to himself. Though he stood for peace and love, he was sure that the kids were out there battling out of passion. But he decided to keep an eye on them just in case any of them get hurt or look like they're in danger.

"You monster..." a voice said form behind me, the voice was laced with sniffles and hiccups, the words stopped me in my tracks and Zoe was about to pounce when I stopped her. My hand pressed against her chest, my teeth were clenched tight and my fists bawled when I ran up to the boy on his knees. I grabbed him my the collar of hi shirt with one fist and held the other up beside me ready to punch him, "What did you call me?" I asked, it was both rhetorical and an actual question to give him a chance to correct himself before I broke his nose.

As his day went on, he kept looking over toward the kids cautiously, making sure they were safe. At one point he saw one pick the other up by his shirt and stopped in his tracks. "Uhh, boss?" He said concerned. "I think we should intervene now." He pointed toward the teenagers on the other side of the docks to make sure his boss knew what he was talking about. "Nahh, just let them do what they want to, and get back to work." Though Rayce couldn't let that happen. Rayce put down his box and quickly ran over with his newly acquired ability to talk to the teens that seemed to be in a quarrel now. "What are you doing? You can't be here! Put him down." He said in a panic for the younger child of the two.

I tightened my grip on the boy's shirt as Zoe stood right behind me facing the other who had just arrived. There had been other people watching from a distance, but hadn't taken the chance to do anything. "Oh look mommies here to help." I said with a sadistic smirk on my face which soon faded, "Now, what did you call me you little twerp?" I growled at the kid as he cringed. Zoe stood between the new guy to appear and me, her claws and teeth bared as she eyed him, a dark purple energy began to cloak her claws and forearms signaling her about to attack if he didn't back away.

Rayce was intimidated by the Zoroark, but couldn't let the power of this person's intimidation win over his love of peace. He didn't have much time to think, but he decided to quickly run over to and pick the boy out of the man's hands. Just before he executed his plan, the Zoroark's face twisted into one of confusion, as if it had lost Rayce. The disciple of the eon duo used his power of speed to run past the Pokemon and grab the boy, taking him out of the seemingly careless immediate environment. Though he got away, about 300 yards from the shrouded man and his pokemon, he felt different. He then looked at his hand, but he didn't. He couldn't see himself. He was invisible! Something that could only happen when his counterpart was nearby. He was ecstatic but more concerned for the boy. "Are you okay?" he said, out of breath. The boy was still in shock so no words were emitted from his mouth for a good while.

Zoe and I were both confused, nothing made since for the next ten seconds that passed by like hours, "H...HOW!!!" I roared as I punched the ground the boy once sat. The act earned some looks from people and me a bleeding fist which I ignored, it hurt like hell, but I did my best to ignore it. "Lets go Zoe." I said in a calm tone. Standing up with my fists still bawled at my sides I looked at the people glancing at me with strange looks, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT!?!?!" I yelled at them, Zoe responded and took out her frustrations for losing the two on the bystanders, she unleashed a powerful dark pulse and dragged it across the area with both paws. Hurting many of the people and knocking others into the neighboring waters. I waved my hand to tell her to stop and we left the docks, walking somewhere to get some food. My fist was aching and blood dripped from it with every half a step.

Arietta pops a bubble in her gum, and the pop echos across the dock. She had gotten off the same boat at that odd looking dark kid, and watched the whole battle. "That. was. awesome." She says to herself. Jeeves, her little Espurr, looks up at her from below, and lets out an adorable little squeak. Arietta had came here after winning a contest, in which she had to put a jigsaw puzzle faster then anyone else. Her prize: a trip to the beautiful ocean metropolis of Slateport, the jewel of Hoenn, to a 5 star hotel where she could stay for up to a month, all food and other expenditures paid. When Arietta heard about the contest, she practiced for three whole days, because /gods/ knew how bored she was in the little town of Anistar. She wasn't and avid pokemon trainer, so Jeeves, Scim and her couldn't do much at what seemed to be the only source of entertainment for most people in Anistar: the gym. Jeeves was still in his first evolution, and Scim was as well. When the contest came around, she was prepared. It took her an hour and two minutes to finish it. And here she was.

As he looked at his hand and the boy, he couldn't think of anything but "Get help." He raced past everyone on their way to the beach, though nobody seemed to notice him, just a floating boy in the fetal position. As he approached the Pokemon center/hospital, he could see himself becoming more opaque. Gladly, he kept running until he opened the door. "Help! He's hurt, and so are his Pokemon!" He shouted. The nurses quickly took the boy and wheeled him into a room on a gurney. Rayce tried to follow them in but a nurse stopped him. "I have to!" He said. "I know you think I'm being pushy, and that you've had a long day. But he doesn't know what's going on. Me being there will soothe him!" He was almost yelling. Another nurse finally let him through and so he followed.

Zoe and I had found a nice Ramen stand only a few blocks away from the docks and even closer to the hospital which we decided to duck under to eat. I sat closet to the corner of the stand and Zoe sat beside me, she never ate pokemon food and mostly ate what I did, minus curry for what ever reason. A guy approached us and asked us what I wanted and I responded, "Two bowls of chicken ramen with, shrimp and diced carrots." I said, the guy was about to ask why am I was feeding my pokemon Ramen, but I shot him a look which sent him away to make the food.

Rayce sat in the room with the boy for what seemed like hours, but only ended up being about 30 minutes. As the boy eased up, they told Rayce that he had to leave because the boy had to be tested on for any mental damage. Rayce thought it a smart choice and decided it was about time that he went back to work. As he left the hospital, he decided that it was about lunch time and that he would stop in for some ramen at a place that he had always seen but never visited. He approached one side of the bar and sat down at the corner.

Scim makes an odd noise at Arietta, and she looks at the sword. It was probably asking her the same thing she was thinking: was that boy in at any risk of dying? Would her God want to stop his fate from being altered. Scim stares at her a moment longer, and she shrugs. "It looked like he just got the living stuff in him battered about. I don't think we'll need to...intervene." Arietta smiles, and starts on her merry way, "Come, Jeeves memorized the directions to the Hotel. I think it was near the major hospital of the city." She sings lightly, and Jeeves leads the way. After about five minutes of following an overwhelmed small cat, they make it to the hotel. The office lady welcomes her, and escorts her to her room. There was two beds, and the hotel was on the Eastern edge of the city, so the large window had a lovely view of the city and ocean. Next door was the hospital, and on the other some residential buildings. "I think it'll be an exciting stay, what about you guys?" Scimitar let out a satisfied hiss in agreement, but Jeeves just stared at her with those huge, slightly souless eyes. Yeah, they agreed.

The Ramen guy returned with our bowls when someone else entered the stand, I didn't bother looking since I didn't really care, those idiots from before were probably still running for the hills so I kept to my bowl of Ramen and so did Zoe. She looked like any other Zoroark so it was hard to tell her from any other and with the way she was sitting I was hidden from who over had just entered which I didn't ind since I wasn't up for talking to someone else until I got my fair share of hits on those punks. "When I see those guys again I swear I'm gonna get them for what they did." i said a loud to Zoe who nodded as she ate with the chopstick she was presented with. I did the same and slurped the Ramen into my mouth via the wooden sticks.

Arietta walks around the room, exploring it. The beds that were in her room were soft and luxurious, topped with three beautiful clean pillows. They faced the wall, where a rather large flat-screen TV sat- and she felt bad, because the TV had obviously cost a lot of money, but she wasn't probably going to use it. Beside to TV was a Mini-fridge and a microwave- perfect for leftovers, she thought. Near the door to the hallway was the entrance to the bathroom, which was rather small, but had a gorgeous shower-bath combo. Next to that was the royal throne, and a counter with the wash-sink. "What a quaint little room. But, lets head out- we didn't come here to lounge around. Plus, I'm famished, I think the smell of the noodle shop we passed made me hungrier then when we first arrived." Arietta comments to her pokemon while digging through her bag. Her mother, an avid pokemon trainer and "psychic", had given her a budget of 1,000,000 poke. She loved her mom, and was surprised that she had it, given how much poke she spends on hyperpotions and the like. She walks to the door, floating sword and bi-pedal cat on her heels. It didn't take long to find the shop, the smell was very strong, and lead her straight to it. Upon entering the shop, she scanned it. It wasn't much, but it had a warm atmosphere. Or it did, until she saw two people. "Oh. It's both of the guys I saw at the dock." She comments, looking at Scimitar and Jeeves. Scim rattles nervously, and Jeeves creeps closer to her leg. Lets hope they don't spot one another... It could get nasty.

Rayce took a look at the man serving noodle soup and decided to go crazy after such a crazy turn of events took place. "Surprise me" he said. And the cook did as he asked. Rayce looked kind of sad. He had just witnessed someone go into a panic attack and was about to get the poop beat out of them. But before long, he decided to talk to a girl who had just sat down near the middle of the venue. "Hey," he said, mind still full enough to ignore his immediate surroundings. "How's your day?" It always made him feel better to hear about how someone else was feeling. It made him feel connected. And with his new deity's blessing, he could sense their feelings even better than he had beforehand through training himself.

Zoe finished her bowl right after me and I rose my hand to call the guy back, "More." I said tossing the bowl at him, Zoe did the same and the guy caught them trying his best not to say something negative, but I picked up on it quickly and looked at him with a look that could kill if I had such powers. Zoe yawned which suggested she wanted to go back into her pokeball which was rare unless she was tired. I shrugged and took out her pokeball, a flash came and returned her to the capture device revealing me to everyone else in the stand, but I didn't see them since I had returned her without looking. I compressed the pokeball and sat it in front of me, spinning it on the counter to pass the time until my food came.

Arietta looks over at him for a moment, and decides not to comment on the events she saw at the dock. She was hyper-aware of both of the men in the room, not scared par-say, but just jittery. They both had power, and could really wreck stuff. She wasn't really in the mood for it- though she was glad the other man had put his pokemon away. "I'm pretty swell." She gives him a toothy grin and picks up Jeeves-setting the small pokemon in her lap- her kalosian accent made the words smooth, "I just got here today, actually. The city is absolutely lovely, if I do say so myself." She looks back up at him, "Do you live here?"

Rayce smiled and almost died after seeing the small cat sitting in the girl's lap. "Oh god that's cute. I'm gonna need to find one of those pokemon right away" He laughed, looking back to the girl. "I do live here. I moved from Lavaridge a while back and I've just been working down at the docks to get myself going." He decided to see how she was feeling. "You seem excited, where are you coming from? And why are you here? Also, can I pet your skitty-looking pokemon?" Rayce asked as he made friendly conversation with the girl.

Scimitar jitters behind Arietta, jealous of the attention Jeeves is receiving, and Arietta rolls her eyes at the pokemon, "Oh shush, you spoiled pokemon." She turns back to the boy, "I'm from Kalos, namely the small town of Anistar. We're famous for our mysterious sundial." She hands Jeeves over to him, "And this pokemon is Jeeves. He's an Espurr- careful of the ears, espurrs hold a...very destructive energy under them. The big stick behind me is Scimitar, also known as Scim- he's a honedge." The pokemon seems to do an odd bow, and she laughs. "We're here because we won a month long stay at a hotel here." She looks him over, "Do you have any pokemon?"

"Well hi there, Jeeves! And hi to you too, Scim, haha." Rayce laughed at the sword, it was a fun and silly looking pokemon that seemed to be just and fair. He liked it. "And yeah, I have a pokemon. He's back at my apartment though, probably sleeping haha. I don't think he should be around the big boxes I have to carry around all day until he evolves and can actually work with me." Rayce said, playing with the fur of the "espurr." "What does the sundial in Anistar do?" He asked. Rayce never really took an interest in geography but loved the little quirky facts about everywhere.

Arietta digs into her pocket and pulls out a small thin device the size of her palm. She presses the blue button in the middle of the device, and it unreels to show a thin liquid-crystal screen. It looked like it was filled with contacts for people, but she slides her finger across the screen and opens something, then shows him the beautiful sundial. It was a giant purple crystal, and the image moved- the rings in front of it were spinning as the sun shined down on it. "It does this when the sun is going down. We don't know exactly how it works- it just does. Professor Sycamore, who's like your guy's professor Birch, thinks it has to do with Mega-stones. Mega-stones can temporarily bring a pokemon to its full potential- it's a marvel to see." She puts the device on the table and reaches back into her pocket, pulling out a little wrapped candy. She gives it to her Honedge, who slides out of it's sheath to eat it. No one really caught how it ate the candy it was kinda just gone. "So what's your pokemon?"

Holding out another pokeball I sent out my Toxicroak when the guy serving Ramen returned with two more bowls of Ramen, he eyed me for a moment when he thought I wasn't paying attention before walking off again. Unlike Zoe, Toxicroak didn't like Ramen, or any food really, other then steak apparently. So naturally he slide the bowl over to me to eat which I wasted no time doing, my slurping had blocked out the sound of the people talking in the stand so I had no reason to look over at them.

Colt had been standing in the corner of the store silently, with his Luxray Lucifer sprawled out on the ground. His jacket was as dark as his Luxrays' fur, just as he liked it. He had always had a special connection to lucifer, as he had helped him become as good of a trainer as he was. Colt had been looking for a challenge in hoenn, and Slate port was just the place to look. people come and go all the time. It had been roughly an hour of waiting in the store, hoping to hear something of interest. Just as he was reaching the end of his rope, he heard just what was he was looking for. "Mega Stones, huh." Colt said to himself. As his Luxray started to ruffle about, Colt interjected. " Just a second, Lucifer. This is just what we have been looking for. lets listen for a little longer."

Rayce seemed in awe at the device and looked up to Arietta "that's so cool! I've got a phone, but that doesn't even begin to compare to that!" Rayce was excited to see it. But quickly changed the subject to not seem like a county-bumpkin. "I've got a growing Marshtomp!" He said proudly. "Once he evolves, he'll be the most helpful Pokemon on the harbor!" He was excited to talk about his marshtomp. He really loved it. "Although, I feel like Marshtomp gets lonely sometimes, so I think I might need another pokemon sometime soon. You know?" Rayce looked over to the coated man with a cat-like pokemon sitting by his side. "That's a really cool pokemon, where'd you get it?" Rayce asked enthusiastically.

Arietta tenses up, but swallows it down, and she looks where the man was looking. Oh, good, it was someone new- and new potential to attract a fight. She could only hope that the man next to him didn't draw Mr.Dark and tall's attention. "Oh, my." She mumbles, admiring the Luxray. It was a large beast, and it looked fierce. Probably could take out both of her pokemon in a blink of an eye, "He's very pretty."

I slurped down the last of my Ramen when the shop owner disappeared into the back, where it lead I didn't really care, but since it gave good cover I was glad he did go. I nodded at Toxicroak which he understood with no problem; he vaulted over the bar and darted into the doorway the shop owner had disappeared through. I never cared that much cash on me and never was known to have a lot so this is how I usually "tipped" the merchants for my services. There was a low gasp and groan that emanated from the the back before Toxicroak returned with a satisfied grin on its face, "Good work." I said as I stood up and shoved my hands in my pockets to leave. Toxicroak hopped off the bar and followed me as we left the stand, too caught up in leaving that I hadn't noticed the rest of the people in the shop.

"heh, thanks" Colt smirked. "This is Lucifer. Was the first pokemon I ever caught." Lucifer popped his head up at the sound of his name. " we've came from Sinnoh looking for something strong." Colt hesitated for a second, thinking if he should jump right onto the question." Those mega stones you were talking about sound just like what I was looking for. do you have any on you?"

Arietta blinks up at him and frowns, "No I'm sorry. But I have a picture of a Blastoise one on my phone- they all look very similar." She says reaching over the device and pulling up a picture, "Even if you have one, you can't use it unless you have a megaring, which are only given to a select few." Arietta looks at Lucifer, "I don't think there are any discovered for Luxrays, either."

Before Rayce could get an answer from the blue shirted man, he noticed a blue and purple frog-like Pokemon hop over the bar and make what seemed to be groans of pain come from the back of the store. He looked to the person who the Pokemon came from and it was the man that beat up the child not two hours beforehand. "YOU!" Rayce shouted. "What did that Toxicroak do to that man?!" The words came out as a roar as he spewed the words with fervor. "This man was ready to beat a boy to a pulp if I hadn't stepped in earlier!" he continued to shout.
