"Ah well, I guess we'll just have to wait here for him." Jace turns away from the bartender towards the door like he is waiting for Tim to walk in. He looks down to Ace and taps his nose.
Ace gets the idea right away and begins putting his sniffer to work, trying to catch Tim's scent again.

"Thankies, they're going to have a blast, isn't that right Jane?" Marietta turns her head to Jane. Jane crosses her arms in disagreement with her silliness, and scratches her own head. Not wanting her container to get thrown around, Jane climbs to her Pokeball and materializes herself in.
Gee, stop being so serious Jane. "Soda pop!" Marietta questions the price of a soda pop, before walking next to the TV. Looking at her apathetic crowd still looking at the TV, Marietta thus opens her mouth. "Hey ladies and gents, instead of gluing on the TV, why not a juggling show, even just a while?" She tosses the first ball on the air, makes a slight pause before lightly throwing the second pokeball above, and then the third and fourth pokeball on the right side. She catches the first pokeball, and quickly throws it back to the air, then the second, third and fourth pokeball. Rinse and repeat.

A crowd of people gathers around Marietta as soon as she starts juggling. Eyes that were glued to the TV could not help but watch a juggling show happen as it is something they rarely see. Soon the crowd starts clapping in rhythm of Marietta's juggling.
Rodrick hears the lound noise from the bench outside. Him and and few others look through the glass window to see what's going on. "Tch, I just want one guy and instead you pull off a clown fiesta...". Rodrick returns to his seat to patiently wait.
Jace, who is watching the door, notices it slightly open. A man peers his head out to see all the commotion going on and then scans the rest of the bar. After that's done, he quickly slams the door shut. Ace picks up on the scent again, which is through that door.

"What's that Ace? Our friend is in there?" Jace acts like his pokemon is talking to him. He gets up and goes to Ace, who is pointing at the door. Jace knocks on the door.
"You in there Tim? We just came by to let you know that we won the day."

Tim's side, before checking the door
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure those three guys are dead." He says, talking to the three others in the room with him. Two suitcases were layed on the table, "I told the bartender to let no one in so we should be fie for now", says one of the goons.
"Can we eat one of these things now, aren't we suppose to get powers to combat 'them'?". Another goon says as he opens up one of the suitcases. He picks up a red orb and gnaws on it. "It's squishy life jello!". They soon hear cheering outside the door. The third goon goes out to check. He comes back with a smile on his face, "Hey there's a juggling show out there! Can we go watch?"
"Hell no, you're asking to get caught... juggling show?". Tim ponders at the odd of that being Marietta. They hear a hard knock on the door, someone was asking for Tim. "Wh-what? That's impossible, they're just a group of noob pokemon trainers and a clown."
Tim walks to the door and opens it slightly, seeing Jace's face. Holy shit man

One of the bartenders put Marietta's soda pop on a table near her. The crowd of people surrounding her are taking pictures of the talented woman. From the corner of her eye, Marietta sees a bottle tossed at her, "Heads up!", someone from the audience yells.
Make another Acrobatics check along with a focus check to maintain your rhythm
The people in suits are just chilling, they seem to be the only ones not interested in her juggling. Marcos erupts in laughter and gets up from the booth,"Playing hot potato with a voltorb? Jeremy that's even dumb for you to say *lol*. I'm going to go up to order my drinks. Same stuff right?".

Marietta sees the bottle flying towards and tries to catch it, more fun for her to juggle above. Hearing Marcos's taunt, she retorts with a challenge. "Give me a 4 real Voltorbs and I'll make an even bigger blast! Especially when they return to their trainers!" 3VJWK5ts2d6 Focus check

Marcos and his group of four others turned around in shock. One of them walks out of the booth in disbelief that anyone would talk back to Marcos.
"How about you mind your own business before I blast your ass you-"
Marcos puts his hands on her shoulder, "Hey now, we have thicker skin than this right Marina?", he says. He walks over to Marietta, still juggling her pokeballs. He looked much older and taller in person. He puts his hand on the back of his neck, Oh you're just a high school girl aren't you, reminds me of my little brother, except not a crybaby hahaha. Nice skills. He puts down a wad of money on Marietta's table. He has a solemn face on, "Stay out of trouble you hear?"

Marietta catches the bottle, but it makes her lost her rhythm, and seeing Marcos approaching her, Marietta catches her Pokeballs, stuffing some on her left pocket and quickly catching the bottle it turns into a mess that turns off her crowd any further. She looks at Marcos, admiringly. He's got some style.
"Sure, thanks for compliment and tips." Unfazed by Marcos's intimidation, Marietta winks and gives him a smile, appreciates the remuneration. She turns back to her crowd.
"Sorry for the delay and that failed bottle juggle, I still got some time left for one show." With her inquiry, she prepares for one more show with her pokeballs.

"Surprised to see me?" Jace flashes a smile. "I told you, my Eevee is made of the stuff of champions. That guy didn't stand a chance" Jace pulls out the badge that he looted from the security guard earlier."I was just wondering what was next. I still want my payment, but obviously I'd be willing to do another job to earn it."

Tim was skeptical at first, because Jace came in looking unscathed even though he was up against an inhuman being. But when he saw the Paradiso pendant his doubts quickly vanished. "...Oh! Come inside, what happened to the others?". He turns to his three goons. "This is one of the guys that I was talking about, he beat one of the royal executives. What do ya say we let him in on this huh?"
Tim's henchmen agreed and they gathered Jace to one of the tables in the room. The room is medium sized. In the middle, there are two counches and between them is a table with two suitcases ontop of it. In these cases are orbs that give us powers like those guys, but we'll need to practice before we even try to think of attacking Paradiso, you've seen what they can do. You can take second pick big man, one of my guys already took a fire orb. One of my bosses, Gurner is somewhere in the next town gathering supplies. I heard he ran into some trouble so he might be away for a few days.

"Thanks. You know the others made it too. They're out in the bar. We were going to buy you a drink to celebrate our victory." Jace says this while grabbing an ice orb from the table. Ace meanwhile does an excited dance by the door, displaying an eagerness to return to the bar.

Back in the bar...
Marina, one of Marcos' allies, is being held down from harming Marietta. The bartenders are too scared of her to do anything at the moment and she is knocking her two allies into tables to get free. She charges one of them (like a bull!) into the corner Tully is in. And the other man is right behind her.
Tully, perform a perception check to notice where they will land and stealth check to dodge and remain hidden.

Tully skulks in the corner, maintaining a nonchalant appearence despite the overwhelming urge to facepalm. A jugglin' show? Really? And tauntin' the guys in the suits, that... that'll work out well for ya.His thoughts come to an abrupt end as the woman comes barrelling towards him and he has to react.

Tully barely manages to escape the soon-to-be dog pile, but giving up his element of stealth in the process. While Marina and Jeremy are wrestling on the ground, the other man notices Tully. "R-reese!?", he cried out. The other two also look up to see the son of the boss.
"Wh-where have you been all this time?! Your brother Marcos was worried sick about you!", shouted Marina. This news traveled to Marcos' ears, blocking everything else out. "Reese! Show yourself! Let me see you!"
All of this is happening right when Marietta tells the audience that she can do an encore of her juggling show, but when she looked towards the audience, their eyes were permanently glued to the TV with this breaking news.
"This is Vulpix News here at Spear Pillar, home of the legendary Pokemonn Dialga and Palkia, scientist and Pokedocters have just confirmed their deaths earlier this evening...
Professor Rowan was the first to notice an anomaly happening at this site. He and the Champion of the Sinnoh region, Cynthia, travel there to find out what was going on. There they discovered their bodies. Reports say that the key to their powers, the Adamant Orb and Lustrous Orbs were removed from their bodies. Rowan states that no Pokemon would have enough intelligence to capitalize on that power, it must have been a human that could have done this, but who has the power to take down these legendary foes? We have contacted the pokemon league from every region to assist us in this case. Stay tuned for more information..."
The TV station switches back to the ball game. The bar is silent, everyone is shocked in disbelief and confusion.

Tully freezes as he hears his name, briefly paralyzed by indecision. He sighs - no point hiding now.
He reveals himself and gives a small wave with one hand, the other still under his coat, just in case. "Hey, bro! How... how ya been?" He stutters.

Marietta rushes to the TV, and after hearing the breaking news, her eyes widens, covering her mouth with both her hands, her voice muffled in disbelief. "Oh my god..." Not one, but two legendary Pokemons getting killed. Team Galactic is at it again? No, it was disbanded years ago. Tim? Gurner? She gets it all jumbled up, and needs some clarification.
"I'm sorry, the juggling show has to cut off for now." Marietta returns next to the TV, bows to her audience, then picks up Marcos's tips and soda. She goes to find Jace, only to find him missing. Where did Jace go? Did he managed to find Tim? She returns to the bartender, lightly pressing 300 pokedollars on the counter. "Here's 300 Pokedollar for the soda. Almost forgot, have you seen that guy that resembles Gary Oak (Jace) went to?" Meanwhile, hearing Marcos's scream for Reese, Marietta looks back at Marcos's position, then at Tully. Is he the crybaby little brother he was referring to? 3d6rNXJx_lf

Meanwhile...
After hearing the commotion outside Jace panics, thinking his comrades somehow started a fight. He shoves the ice orb into his mouth quickly, chewing once, and then swallowing assuming it has the consistency of jello). Nearly choking he wipes his mouth.
"What the hell is going on out there?"

Marcos rushes over to Tully and greets him with a great big hug and laugh. Where have you been!? Everybody's been looking for you,for both positive and negative reasons but... It's good to see you again. I have one question for you, will you come back to the family now?
At the bartending table, Marietta breaks the bartender's daze with the sound of money, "...Oh, thank you. Umm, I'm not sure where he went, I was watching your juggling, but he was sitting right here.", she points to the end seat near the door.
At the same time in the back room...
"Shit, is it Paradiso again, they send someone else? Or maybe it's just a small brawl fight." Tim starts to sweat. He nods one of his goons to check what's going on outside the door. The goons accepts and walks away.
Tim sits down on the couch, "Ok, what do I want", he hesitates for what power he receives. I can be a shadow man(maybe), or as strong as a dragon(kinda)!
