Adventure Thread - Group A

"All right! Thanks again for letting me crash!" Jane nodded several times to express gratitude. Then she retired into her (borrowed) room to spend some time with her pokémon and journal. While tired, she felt that she had to gather her thoughts somehow. Today had been weird to say the least ... She'd save meeting the other house guests for another day!

---

Jane isn't up too early, but once she hears the sound of training outside she also rolls out of her bed to do her morning rituals. Practice, food, maybe a shower if she could, food and oh maybe pack something for the day. She could be found quite easily right next to Kaeda/Floyds fridge/pantry. "*nom* I *nom* made *nom* some *nom-nom* sandwiches. *gnomf-glup* I hope you don't mind!"

"Two lab locations? Hmm..." Jane thinks aloud while preparing a whole new set of sandwiches. It didn't sound like they were stopping for lunch so better to be sure! "I wonder; will there be people at all of them? Weren't they supposed to be shut down? And do you think they'll bulk up the security... That might be a bother!"

"Oh and we should thing of a way to subtly check if the crazy hag did all that she threatened to do. It will suck if we can't step into a pokécenter without getting swatted!" She started to wrap up her extra food and move it to her bag. With a lot of extra plastic in it this time; didn't want more things to get wet. "Mm. Do you think the news would cover it?"

"Who?" Jane looked puzzled. Then she shrugged, wondering why she had expected to actually know whom these people knew. Ah well! It'd get better when everything turned back to normal she assumed.

"But I agree with the point that healthy water types will be important - so why not start with the underwater one?"

Floyd follows with a nod, glancing back at Jane.

"Aleisandra is the gym leader of Cerulean city and Lia's employer." He explains.

After getting into Cerulean Gym and explaining what has happened to Lia, Alei frowns. She would dearly love to aid the party, but between Gym Leader responsibilities and it not being her jurisdiction, her hands are unfortunately tied. Cinnabar Island and the surrounding waters are the jurisdiction of Ashandra, the Gym Leader over there. Anything that doesn't fall under the direct scrutiny of the Indigo League around Viridian would be the jurisdiction of Mei-Ling, the resident Gym Leader there.

The best that Alei can do is offer her moral support and give the other two Leaders a heads-up that the group is coming their way so there are no misunderstandings. The worst they'll do is look the other way and let the party do what they will. Alei will also ask that the party gather real, tangible proof of what is going on in these strange facilities they've discovered. The name on the plaque may have been Saffron Genetics, a private company with no real League oversight, but if they're involved in things like kidnapping and unwilling genetic modifications as the party claims, then the more hard evidence they can collect, the better.

This is not to say that Alei doesn't believe them, she does, but in order to get the League involved, she'll need real evidence to present them. They can't act without it. If there is anything that they've been sitting on, she hints, now's the time to bring it forward officially.

Of coarse they would need proof. Kaeda takes this advice, and purchases a small body cam. For now she stores it in a case, and will use it to record the inside of these bases. Now armed with new tech, and lots of memory cards for storage, she was ready to raid, and expose these next few bases. Hopefully Lia was in one of these two.

The Delta Vespiquen is by itself not proof of anything except a strange Pokemon. The circumstances under which Floyd claims to have received it are certainly suspect, but alas not provable since it seems unlikely that he recorded the conversation or has written proof of the deal in question. These Poke-human hybrids are probably the most interesting proof, alongside of the self-proclaimed representative of Saffron Genetics. If this person's claim can be verified, it would certainly go a long way towards spurring the League to action. The trouble is in the verification process itself. Identities are not difficult to steal/forge (unfortunately), depending on what that identity needs to say about a person. Thankfully, DNA samples can go a long way towards proving one's identity.

In the end, Floyd & Co have a lot of questionable evidence that could become useful if proven. The biggest and most easily proven step is to get Celestyna to speak to authorities about proving her identity, though it will be difficult considering the length of time she has been 'missing', and therefore has likely been declared dead some time ago.

With her equipment ready, pokemon ready, and ready to kick ass, Kaeda hops on her dragon to take to the skies. She shoots text messages to the others to get a move on towards the underwater lab of Cinnabar. Kaeda waits just off the coast of Pallet town to wait for the others before the raid starts.

Kaeda is flying along, and going over what she plans to do in her head. But, a stray thought comes rushing in from her subconscious. "Fuck! Floyd can't fly!" She then pumps the theoretical brakes on her Hydreigon, and steers it back to Cerulean. Kaeda mentally kicks herself as she has to waste time turning back. She gets back to Cerulean after a short bit, and locates the others. "Sorry! I forgot you don't have fliers Floyd." She tosses him her Salamence once again.
