Ira works his jaw a moment before answering. "Nothing important. I'm Ira, this is Kane. So..." he thinks for a moment, deciding to leave the question of what she wants with Brandon alone for a moment and come back to it, "if you don't mind me asking, where'd you get... "Huggy"? Don't think I've ever seen a 'mon like him."

She scratches the back of her head a moment before replying "Oh, where I come from, Huggy's species is really common and well-liked. They're used as starters!" As Huggy floats over to Kane arms outstretched and trying its very best to look adorable, Zossie gets serious, saying "Okay, so back to business- where's Brandon? Gotta bring him back home, y'know."

Kane screams once more and uses Ira as a human shield between him and the criminally monstrous abomination that is "Huggy"

"Wow that sounds so great! So you're a new trainer, Zossie?" She asks the other girl.

Zossie thinks for a moment before replying, "Um... maybe? I guess? I mean, I didn't train Huggy to anything fancy. Just, y'know, come, stay, and some moves." Speaking of, Huggy is chasing Kane in circles around Ira, trying to hug either the boy or the delightfully huggable foam sword.

Ira rolls his eyes and puts his hand on Huggy's head, knowing full well the thing's likely to latch on again. "It's got some moves, alright. Where are you from, anyway - must be a pretty interesting place with these things running around."

Zossie shrugs as Huggy clamps down on Ira's arm. "Mostly, it's just very black-and-white. Not much color. It's part of the reason I'm trying to find Brandon, actually."

"Oh, I know, why don't we search for him together. Maybe you can persuade him better than we can?" Elise proposed. She honestly wanted to get rid of Brandon, but maybe seeing him with someone familiar will lose him up a bit more?

Zossie nods excitedly. "Yeah! Sounds good! Whaddya think, Huggy?" Huggy releases Ira's arm and flies around in a big vertical loop, giggling mischievously.

Ira nods as he shakes his hand a little to get feeling back in it. "Alright, sounds like a plan." If nothing else, it'd mean he can keep an eye on this girl.
That decided, he walks over to Tropius, stopping only to pick up the phone Brandon dropped. He looks up at the massive pokemon. "Right, sorry about that - everything kind of happened all at once. Anyway, we're going to try and find the guy who tried to take control of you. Wanna come along?"

Kane has retreated to a fetal position under Ira, gripping tightly to his ankle for protection from the tiny flying deity of death and famine.

As Kane stares fearfully up at Huggy (which is currently flying gleefully around its owner), Tropius looks at Ira and gives a nod- single, and decisive- in response to his question. It then bends its long neck down to Kane to stare him in the eye, raising one of its wings to block the vision of the adorably squishy elder evil.

Kane switches from Ira to the leg of Tropius for protection. Clearly this creature was a blessing sent from the heavens to defend against such unsightly abominations as, "huggy"

Kane is picked up by the back of his Nio costume and carried like a Litleo being carried by Pyroar. Tropius looks at Ira expectantly, plodding forward a few steps to show it's ready to follow.

Ira gives a similar nod. "Great. Now, if I remember right, Brandon and his lot went off that way," he points in the direction they fled, "don't know if we'll be able to catch up to them before they get where they're going, but they were flying so probably travelled mostly straight."

"Yes, let's try to follow him. Let's just hope he hasn't gone to far. Is there anything else we should know about Brandon that could help?" Elise asked the mysterious trainer.

Kane hears the song, "the circle of life" as he gets lifted up into the air.
"Ok, so we're not going to do anything about this guy carrying your little brother at a dangerously high height? I'm not complaining, this is fun, I just wanted to touch bases."

Zossie thinks a moment before replying "Well, he's kinda sorta maybe just possibly a little teensy bit of an almost lunatic. He thinks he's saving the world, or something. Probably got a little too much of the Alolan sun, if ya ask me. That's why I wear this snazzy headgear!" She raps her knuckle on her helmet for emphasis. Tropius, meanwhile, uses its wings to beat away Huggy, keeping the bizarre 'mon from floating in and hugging Kane. Otherwise, it trudges alongside you, holding Kane aloft. A few minutes of walking go by, and you're back on the beach, at a different part. The ocean no longer looks blue and inviting, but gray and threatening, with whitecaps lashing upon the beach. Gray clouds portend rain of a heavy sort, while a chilling wind blowing off the ocean makes you shiver slightly with its unexpected cold. A storm is coming, and it may be a bad one. Up ahead, you see an old-looking house, built on the rocks above the beach. A dirigible, like the sort used to advertise cars at sporting events, sits next to it, tethered by ropes to a nearby palm tree. Brandon, Lydia, Conrad, and the Magnemite are moving things from the house into the dirigible. The wind shifts slightly, allowing you to hear Brandon say "...because I'm tired of these stupid kids and their stupid interference. Besides, we know he hates Nio, so if that psychic comes, we just stay out of the way." I'd like all of you to make a quick Perception check.

The building storm, and Brandon's curious remark, occupy your attention, preventing you from seeing Marshadow until it's tugging at Kane's foam sword whilst making little "meep" sounds, trying to get the boy's attention.
