The mixed reaction of those across the region seemed to mirror how the twirling winds felt in the sky above, some thrashing about violently in the clouds and others softly gusting with the delicate waves that crashed up against the banks. This was especially true for the duo of fame and draconian power; holding on to the Salamence's back with her overall stature, Cordelia would witness her high ponytail flutter through the clouds as they would sprint across the horizon, occasionally being kicked up out of its gentle flow from the harsh breeze. Still slightly groggy from waking up a few hours beforehand, it was apparent that the supermodel and her companion were on their way to assist in the league's request to help in the evacuation and investigation of the strange phenomena surrounding the Mossdeep Space Center- strange portals dubbed as wormholes were beginning to coat the sky, spouting out strange beasts that were unable to be recognized as any familiar species of Pokemon. It baffled her greatly, and while she was a bit concerned and anxious to attend in witnessing the occurrence all the way across the region from where she called home, she felt as though it would be necessary to lend the league as much assistance as they could get. Petting the surface of Celestite's back as he would quickly ascend and descend to avoid the clouds holding dormant winds of hostility, she would look down and watch the blue surface of the ocean twinkle in the daylight, looking for any signs to notify her of how soon she would be arriving in the city of space research. However, the signs would soon begin to show right in-front of her rather than anywhere else in explicit detail.

Dressed fully in designer, when the supermodel would eventually arrive within Mossdeep it would be hard for her not to be recognized due to the amount of advertisements that featured her face across not only the region, but the world. Her outfit consisted of her signature colors, red and white, to their full extent; a soft, white dress-shirt would fall a few inches down her thighs and would complement the shape of her body well, though the primary area of focus was her thick, ruby-red cardigan that reached all the way down to a few inches above the bottoms of her dark red boots. The red and white signature bow that tied her hair into the high-ponytail gracefully matched both her purse and the juul that lay resident within her interior outer-wear pocket, which would hopefully assist her in getting through what would appear to be a long day of discovery. The crimson optics of Cordelia would widen, however, as the duo would near the edge of the city- a wormhole was right in their path, glowing tremendously and flashing bright colors as if it was a rift between worlds. Her dragon companion would hurl himself to the side to dodge this portal-like phenomena, narrowly missing flying right into the center of the open rift. They were everywhere, so much so that the sky began to look as if it was flashing the bright colors of space itself. Quickly lunging forward to move her body in order to be able to hold onto the neck of Celestite for more support, the Space Center began to make itself known on the horizon, almost acting like a ping of sorts as to where she was to arrive. Tapping his neck twice and pointing forward, the dragon trainer would let him know that that was his ideal place to land; he would set his eyes on the large building and head straight towards it, flying out of the way of the harsh winds and wormholes with all of his might.

After a brief few minutes of quick flight, the Salamence would let out a large roar before quickly beginning to descend near the entrance of the Mossdeep Space Center, a small stream of dark smoke exiting his mouth only to be blasted away by his body flying through. Nearing the ground and slowing down, Cordelia would quickly stand on his back and slip down his right arm, holding onto his hand with one hand and his poke-ball with the other; if she was going to make an appearance during this event of obscurity, she was going to do it with style. Jumping down from gliding in the air onto small stepping stones outside of the building, the dragon-type would swoop by and would be hit with the thrown-upward poke-ball, causing him to retreat into his personal dimension of his needs. The ball of blue and red would fall down and land into the hands of the trainer, sparkling about as caused by the effects tied to the device of containment; the supermodel was now where she was supposed to be, her eyes flickering and widening once more as she would turn to get a complete view of the city. Mossdeep City looked just as the news said that it did or even worse, as the skyline of the island had been entirely engulfed in the lustrous fissures that had strangely appeared on their own. It was insane, so much so that the dragon and fire-type trainer could not believe her eyes- this was not some sort of graphic illusion created on the television in the form of a movie, this was entirely real. Adjusting her purse that hung from her side by a gold chain, the girl would turn and begin to walk toward the entrance of the space center. "This feels too much like a dream," she would softly say to herself under her breath, reaching her hand outward to grasp the glass of the entrance door for it to begin to open.

♘ note(s): cordelia arrives on her salamence, barely missing the rifts of the strange phenomena before making a stylish entrance at the front of the space center and containing the salamence back in his pokeball. she finds herself awe-struck by the abundance of wormholes; it is crazy to her that this is truly a part of reality. she makes her way to the front entrance of the space center in order to provide assistance.

Grasping the glass of the entrance doors with her sharp acrylic nails of crimson color, the league affiliate's presence would force the doors to slide outward and allow her to come inside of the space center, the heel-ends of her boots making fierce clacking sounds with every step inward she would take among the tile. Upon entering the building, it was clear that the situation was being handled in a much more serious manner than she anticipated; the evacuation was frantic, with scientists running around grabbing as much physical data that they could carry before quickly escaping out of the same glass doors that the supermodel had entered. Cordelia had caught a glimpse of the infamous Stormy Silph delve into the stairway going into the basement after missing a closing elevator going down, which looked to have housed another member of the league, meaning that the underground areas of the building were likely to be covered. As for the rest of the building, the girl of white and red was unsure as to what needed the most attention and what would not, as she did not see anyone else make their way up to the higher floors (unknowing of Kazimir Wynter and his ascent to the second floor that had occurred before her entrance). Reaching into her purse and pulling out a silver and yellow pokeball that looked to have golden flakes embedded into its glossy surface, she would press the button to release an array of bright light and electricity, which would form into her companion, Togedemaru. Swooping him up into her arms, the dragon trainer would quickly jog toward the stairs that pointed up toward the second floor while the last of the employees would evacuate from the lower floor, making it appear as if it were cleared and taken care of prior.

The stairs that went up to the second floor were quite steep, though they weren't the hardest to run up in heeled-boots; if she were in platform runway shoes that would be a different story, but luckily the length of the crimson boots made her feet able to be moved about almost freely. Upon passing the final step, Cordelia would be nearly hit in the face by an eccentric scientist carrying a computer down to the first floor in an attempt to salvage his belongings, his face giving off a small look of terror before quickly running down the stairs. 'That was close,' she would think to herself in a startled manner, her destination being met by a split in the path divvying up into many different hallways, all labeled. Most of the floor appeared to be occupied by scientists and employees scrambling about doing the same as what others were doing on the lower floor, though a certain hallway stood out to the girl more than the others- it was labeled to lead to the observatory, and only lead to a single room on its end which looked to be quite large from the size of its sliding doors. In addition to this, it did not hold many people inside of its designated hallway, aside from a few scientists removing binders off of bookcases on the sides of the walls. The people in the corridor of hallways looked to be able to handle their own while making their evacuation; what was left was the task of investigating the scene, and the observatory sounded like quite the place to do so. Walking toward the sliding doors and past the scientists that began to run toward the stairs, the large sliding doors would silently open upon the motion of Cordelia and Helio's bodies, shutting behind them in a similar noiseless fashion.

Upon entering the room, the crimson optics of the supermodel would widen in awe; like the doors, the observatory was massive and exquisitely beautiful. Themed in blue and gold, the first half of the room was coated in magnificent statues of ancient Pokemon and people, along with telescopes priceless in demeanor looking out the golden stained-glass windows on both sides. In addition to this, they all circled around a giant depiction of the world with rings of gold around it, slowly moving about and whirling around each other and the many statues of golden meteor-formations that hung from the ceiling. Stars were painted on the surface of the roof like butterflies on a canvas, which stretched across the sky to form constellations- but nothing was grander than the giant telescope among the other half of the room. Peering into the sky above through an open slit in the roof that could be set to both open and closed, multiple wormholes were able to be seen once again coating the sky like before, still asserting their presence upon the horizon. Bookcases lined the exterior of this side of the room instead of statues, stretching upward until they hit the ceiling. They were filled with books to the point where they essentially formed walls, their multi-colored spines making an array of colors shine from the reflection against the outside light and stained glass. It was one of the most magnificent man-made areas of knowledge that Cordelia had ever truly been able to witness. Her footsteps slowly pushed against the decadent rugs that lined the path around the statues and telescopes, not making a sound- it was as if the room was entirely empty and noiseless, the sound of panic unable to be heard through the industrial sliding doors.

Cordelia would scan the many depictions of space that surrounded her for any abnormalities, though none would explicitly be in sight; if there were anything worth investigating in this area, it would most likely be residential to the library-like area of the mega-telescope. However, upon nearing the side of books and stars, a faint yet abrupt clicking noise would slowly become audible from behind one of the bookcases in what looked to produce a small area of study. 'A scientist not bothered by the wormholes?' was the first thought of the supermodel, as it sounded similar to the clicking of a computer. But what if it wasn't a scientist? Inching her way closer while making sure to not make noise from her footsteps, she would begin to peer down the aisles of books that did not sound inhabited by life, but nothing stood out to her nor the electric type that sat among her shoulder. Would she be able to find a clue pertaining to the cause of the strange phenomena within the observatory of the Mossdeep Space Center?

♘ note(s): Cordelia enters the building and releases her Togedemaru from his pokeball to accompany her on the inside. Making her way onto the second floor, she finds the doors to the giant observatory and enters; hearing a clicking sound coming from behind one of the bookcases that sits near what looks to be a study overlooking the ocean, she quietly looks for information and abnormalities, trying not to alert the mysterious entity in solitude of her presence.
