"So... um...," Karen raises a hand and asks, "How should we get into the sewers? And are we even allowed down there?"

As if to answer Karen's question, as your group walks outside, you see an unguarded open manhole. As you guys walk towards it, you see Jill waving at you. "Thank you...Chasers.". As she walks back inside, you hear a loud screech coming from a seemingly underground area, much farther from here. ѩҏѫя҄ҒҙҙљэҢҕљэѶэҎҙҟҒҎґҦэҘқҜҤэҤҕҎҡєҠэґҜҖқҔэҖҡћэѶэҗҢҠҡэҕҎңҒқєҡэҏҒҒқэҎҏҙҒэҡҜћћћґҜэҎқҦҡҕҖқҔэҎҏҜҢҡэҖҡћэѰҜҚҒэҜқљэѶєҙҙэҠҕҜҤэҦҜҢћяѩќҏѫѓқҏҠҝѨэѵҒэҙҒҎґҠэҦҜҢэҎҟҜҢқґэҡҕҒэҐҜҟқҒҟэҤҕҒҟҒэҦҜҢэҠҒҒэҎэѰҦқґҎҞҢҖҙљэҝҖҡҖғҢҙҙҦэҠҖҡҡҖқҔэҡҕҒҟҒћэҁҕҒҟҒэҠҒҒҚҠэҡҜэҏҒэҎэҕҎҝҕҎҧҎҟґҙҦэҡҕҟҜҤқњҡҜҔҒҡҕҒҟэҚҒґҖҐҎҙэҘҖҡэқҒҥҡэҡҜэҕҖҚљэҎҠэҦҜҢэҠҒҒэҡҕҎҡэҠҒңҒҟҎҙэҏҎқґҎҔҒҠэҕҎңҒэҏҒҒқэҎҝҝҙҖҒґэҡҜэҡҕҒэѺҜқћэҁҕҒэѰҦқґҎҞҢҖҙэѩҎэҕҟҒғѪяҕҡҡҝҠѧќќҜҟҖҔѝѝћґҒңҖҎқҡҎҟҡћқҒҡќғѤѠѝќғќџѝўџќѝѦџќҎќҐќҏҙҢҒҌғҖҟҒҌҐҦқґҎҞҢҖҙҌҠҢҔҖҚҜҟҖҌҟҒҌҐҜҙҜҟҌҏҦҌґҟҎҔҜқҡҎҚҒҟѠѤѦњґѡҢҝҞҐѠћҝқҔяѫҙҖҔҕҡҠэҢҝѩќҎѫэғҜҟэҕҎҙғэҎэҠҒҐҜқґљэҠҕҜҤҖқҔэҏҙҢҒэғҙҎҚҒҠэҡҕҎҡэҠҚҒҙҙэҜғэҠҡҒҎҚћэѩҏѫяҁҕҖҠэҙҖҡҡҙҒэҔҢҦєҠэҏҒҒқэҡҟҦҖқҔэҡҜэҝҟҜҡҒҐҡэҡҕҒэҜҡҕҒҟэҠҒҤҒҟэѺҜқэғҟҜҚэҡҕҒҠҒэқҎҠҡҦэ҇ҢҏҎҡэҡҕҎҡєңҒэҏҒҒқэҔҜҖқҔэҐҟҎҧҦћэѯҢҡћћћћҕҒэҔҜҡэҕҢҟҡэҏҒҐҎҢҠҒэҜғэҚҒћѓқҏҠҝѨэ҂ҕћћћѰҜҠҚҜэѕҕҒэҝҜҖқҡҠэҡҜэҡҕҒэҀҡҎҟҙҦіэҤҎҠэҤҖҡҕэҚҒэҎқґћћћѰҦқґҎҞҢҖҙэҡҜҜҘэҎқэҎҡҡҎҐҘэҡҕҎҡэҤҎҠэҕҒҎґҖқҔэғҜҟэҕҖҚћћћяэѩќҏѫҁҕҒэҏҜҦэҙҜҜҘҠэҠҎґћØ

Alexander walked outside, chuckling in the darkness the whole way. At the sight of the open manhole he did not hesitate, walking to it, stepping over the open void, and dropping into it in a rush of red clothing. ױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآאؖ؟؟اؕؔאؑةאؓ؟أؕةלאئؕآةאؓإآؙ؟إأאؤ؟אأؕؕאاؘؑؤאؤؘؕאة؟إ؞ؗאؒ؟ةאاؑأאؑإؙؔ؞ؗאؤ؟מז؞ؒأؠאױאؙئؙ؞ؗאإآؒؑ؞אؕؗؕ؞ؔאاؑأא؞؟ؤאءإؙؤؕאاؘؑؤאؘؕאؘؑؔאؕبؠؕؓؤؕؔמؒآؒآגױא؞؟ؒؕאأؑؓآؙؙؖؓؕלאؙ؞ؔؕؕؔלגאױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآאأؙؑؔמז؞ؒأؠאؕאأؑؤאؔ؟ا؞לא؟؟؛ؙ؞ؗאؤؘؕא׳ة؞ؔؑءإؙא؟ئؕآמז؞ؒأؠאױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآאآؘؕؑؓؕؔאؙ؞ؤ؟אؤؘؕאؖ؟ؔأא؟ؖאؘؙأאؚؑؓ؛ؕؤלאؠآ؟ؔإؙؓ؞ؗאؑאؠ؟ؤؙ؟؞מז؞ؒأؠאגؕآؕלאؑةמז؞ؒأؠאאؙؒؕؕئؕאؤؘؙأא׳ة؞ؔؑءإؙאؤآإأؤأאة؟إלאؑؤאؕؑأؤאؕ؞؟إؘؗאؤ؟אؒؑ؞ؔؑؗؕאؙؤלגאױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآאأؙؑؔלא؟ؖؖؕآؙ؞ؗאؑةאؤؘؕאؠ؟ؤؙ؟؞אؑ؞ؔא؟؟؛ؙ؞ؗאؤؘؕא׳ة؞ؔؑءإؙאؙ؞אؤؘؕאؕةؕأמז؞ؒأؠאؘؙأא؟؛ؕ؝؟؞אؘؑؔאؘؓ؟أؕ؞אؤ؟אؒؕؓ؟؝ؕאؑאؗإؑآؙؔؑ؞אؖ؟آאؤؘؕאأؕاؕآאؠ؟؛ؕ؝؟؞םםؤؘ؟أؕאؤؘؑؤאاؕآؕאإ؞اؕؓ؟؝ؕא؟؞אؤؘؕאأإآؖؑؓؕמז؞ؒأؠאؘ؟أؕאؤؘؑؤאؙئؕؔאؙ؞אؤؘؕאأؘؑؔ؟اأמז؞ؒأؠא؇ؘؑؤאؘؑؔאؔآؙئؕ؞אؘؙ؝אؤ؟אؤؘؕאإ؞ؔؕآا؟آؔׯז؞ؒأؠא؇ؑأאؘؕאأ؟אؙؔؖؖؕآؕ؞ؤאؖآ؟؝אؙؤאؑ؞ؔאؙؤأאؒإؕאؖؑ؝ؕأׯؒآؒآג״؟א؞؟ؤאؖؕؕאأؑؔאؖ؟آאاؘؑؤאؘؑؠؠؕ؞ؕؔםםؕؑآ؞אؖآ؟؝אة؟إآאؕبؠؕآؙؕ؞ؓؕأאؑ؞ؔאؗآ؟اמז؞ؒأؠאؘؙأא؟؛ؕ؝؟؞אؘؑأאؠآ؟ئؕ؞אؘؙ؝أؕؖאءإؙؤؕאؤؘؕאؙؤؤؕאؘؕآ؟לאؒإؤאؘؕאؔ؟ؕأא؞؟ؤא؞ؕؕؔאؤ؟אأؤآإؗؗؕאؑ؟؞ؕאؑ؞ةא؟؞ؗؕآלגאױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآאأؙؑؔלאأؤؑ؞ؙؔ؞ؗאإؠלאأؤآؘؙؑؗؤםؒؑؓ؛ؕؔאؑ؞ؔאآؕأ؟إؤؕלאגؒؕؓؑإأؕאؒאؑ؝אؘؕآؕןؒמגז؞ؒأؠאױأאؘؕאأؙؑؔאؤؘؙأלאؑ؞אؑإآؑא؟ؖאؔؑآ؛؞ؕأأאؒؕؗؑ؞אؤ؟אؗآ؟اאؑآ؟إ؞ؔאױؕبؑ؞ؔؕآלאؖ؟اؙ؞ؗאؑآ؟إ؞ؔאؘؙ؝מז؞ؒأؠאג؞ؓؕאة؟إאؘؑئؕאؤؕ؞ؔؕؔאؤ؟אؤؘؕא׳ة؞ؔؑءإؙלאؠؕؑأؕאؤؑ؛ؕא؝ؕאؤ؟אؤؘؕא؊إؒؑؤמז؞ؒأؠאאاؙאؠإؤאؤؘؙؕآא؝ؑؔ؞ؕأأאؤ؟אؑ؞אؕ؞ؔא؝ةأؕؖמגÌ

"...looks like we're already going." He deadpanned as he followed Alexander through the manhole, but unlike the other boy he used the stairs leading down like a sane person. He was already preparing himself for the horrible smell.

Karen, too, used the ladder and after descending into the sewers, she would send out her Ponyta if there was room. "Alright, here we go," she muttered to herself and her Pokemon as she pat him on the nose to calm him down. There was some initial nervous whinnying and backing away by the Ponyta, a natural reaction to any narrow space, but after a few gentle tugs and pats, he followed Karen's lead and walked with her a little bit away from the ladder to make more room for the others. into the smelly, narrow place. Now that Johnny was out, the glow of his mane and tail would help to give the place a little light.

That's ... really dark... and small... oh dear, screeching... stay calm, stay calm... Teresa slowly backs away from he manhole, clearly nervous. "Y-you know what, Why don't I stay up here? To... keep an eye out, yes! Make sure nothing... escapes! Or jumps in after you to ambush you... yes." She's obviously freaking out again.

Addison watches the others proceed down into the dark whole heartedly, and he stands patiently, waiting for his turn, concentrating on something as he does so. At Teresa's reticence to go down into the sewers, he smiles and lightly puts a hand on her shoulder. "Sounds like a good idea. We wouldn't want to spend all are time mucking around down there and have whatever we were chasing escape up here, now would we?"
That said, he begins climbing down the ladder himself, looking around. He briefly considers releasing Kite, but looking at the quality of the blackwater in the sewer his nose wrinkles at the idea. Wouldn't want the baby water type getting sick, after all. Swell was too large for the sewers as well, so it looked like he'd be going it alone.
That being decided he looks forward to Karen and cheerfully says, "Lead the way! No time to catch up to the source of the noise than right after its cried out, after all."

The group of you make it down to the ground, looking around. You see a river of sewage to your right, and a tunnel in front of you, leading further into the sewers. You see several Rattata scurrying along the ground as you land, and... something splashing in the river. To your left, you see an alternate tunnel. However, you realize that Alexander has completely disappeared.

Zernebog scowled at the stench hitting his nose, but otherwise remained straight-faced as he pulled out a pokeball and then took out a sturdy-looking metal sword with an eye and sheath that he quickly took a hold of. As he looked around, he noticed that someone was missing.
"Ey, where'd the drama queen go? He couldn't have gone that fast." He paused thoughtfully before glancing over at the glowing horse and its rider. "And what path do you lot want to try first?"

"Well, I guess he's just doing his job? He sort of seemed like the person to be all sneaky," Karen suggested as a possibility. She looked at their group of three, now, Teresa having evidently chosen to stay above ground. That was all fine. At Addison's urging, Karen had taken the lead, guiding her ponyta around to the front. At least, her front. The front she chose was whichever direction lay in the direction of the little girl's home. As the group used the flames dancing upon her Pokemon's back as a source of light, Karen remained off of her ride's back and walking on the ground like the rest of them. "This way then. Let's try going in the way of Jill's place first," she called back as she walked down the tunnel that was closest to the direction she wanted.

Addison blinks a bit at Alexander's departure and sighs. So much for group cohesion, not that he had expected much from Alex. Well, nothing to be done about it now. Addison walked up front until he was next to Karen and her Ponyta, and he nods in agreement at her guidance. "Sounds good dude."Beyond that he falls silent, keeping his eyes peeled for danger. Perception vs Darkness! Rolled a 5. Whoops.

[/div] Teresa frowns a bit concernedly as Jill tells her about her friend roaming around the sewers. "Don't worry, Jill, I'm sure they'll find him. Could you maybe give me a description of him, so I can tell the others who to look out for?"
At the girl's description, she smiles a bit. "Well, at least he can protect himself a bit. That's good. I'm sure my friends will find him and bring him back safe and sound." With that, she grabs her comm and turns it on... Suddenly, the team's communicators turn to live, and Teresa's voice can be heard from them. "Guys, there's a little... complication that's popped up. One of Jill's friends, Ray, has gone down the sewers to hunt down whatever was making the noises. He's about Jill's age and length, black hair. Oh, and Jill says he has Lightning powers, so if you like... see sparks or smell ozone, he's probably close. And don't startle him, if you can help it. Last thing we need is for you to be shocked by someone we're trying to save..."

Zerne took out his communicator and frowned at it for a moment before figuring out where the answer button was. "You got anything for us in description aside from young with black hair and having electric powers? Do you think you can get a picture from Jill or someone else?"
Also, more importantly... were their senses really so untrained that they couldn't hear a kid going down and around quiet sewers? They weren't walking that long. Damn.

Teresa rolls her eyes at Zerne's comment (not that he can see that). "How many kids are you expecting to find down there? You're not trying to find a fugitive here, just a kid in an otherwise empty sewer. If you find one, odds are, it's the right one."

Well, someone was more sassy when they weren't within actual talking distance. He snorted. "Alright, fine. But if we find a second kid living as a hermit in sewers for some reason like the underground version of jungle book or if we stumble across the re-enactment of It, it's on you." He snarked right back.

Alexander smiled as Pan, his Zorua, came scurrying out of the darkness. Evidently his role in their little bit of fun was complete. The Zorua returned Alexander's smile with a mischievous grin of his own. That told Alexander all he needed to know--the Zorua had succeeded without detection, although Alexander raised an eyebrow at the communicator on his wrist as it barked to life. Pan went to give the young boy a curious sniff.
"I have him here," he responded in a firm, authoritative tone. "I've also found the source of the disturbance. This will be dealt with...presently," he said in a very smug tone. With that he clicked off his communicator. If he'd actually been trying to conceal himself, that would've given away his position. He'd have to remember to get rid of that in the future...maybe give it to Pan.
"Ray, stay behind me. I will keep you safe...and we'll be rid of these nuisances shortly." Alexander strode forward, his arms extended at an angle away from his body. "Ganon, if you please," Alexander nodded to his Pancham companion with a predatory grin. The Pancham nodded, cracking its knuckles before rushing toward the Zubats, his steely punch a gift for the closest one.
Following in his wake, Alexander walked in no particular hurry. Down here, in the darkness, Alexander was in his element. The shadows swirled around him. "Whatever you see in the darkness, Ray, you've nothing to fear," Alexander said with a regal tone. "Over darkness, my authority is absolute." Alexander raised one arm and swiped in a back-handing motion. The shadows before him rose up and followed his gesture, a shadowy claw backhanding the nearest Zubat--the same that Ganon had charged.
'Too easy...,' he thought to himself.

Zernebog had the most dry and deadpan expression on his face as he looked down at the communicator. "Well then, I believe we have two people to look for now before our targets decide that they're more delicious than the usual sewer fare or something. Teresa, did you get a bead on them before Edge Queen cut off comms?"
He then looked up and glanced at the others. "Actually, either of you got a pokemon that can track? Mine can't. Otherwise, we're just going to guess until we hear the sounds of combat and possible shouts and screams."

Addison's relaxed grin fades slightly at all the comms chatter, but it returns without much issue. He gives an apologetic shrug to Zernebog as he speaks up. "Sorry dude, none here. My pokemon aren't too suited to down here. One's too big to fit, and the other would probably get sick the second I put her in this water, sensitive water type and all. I say we just pick up the pace and keep our ears peeled."
