[attr="class","adrianscroll"]...Until someone sells you a kadabra with post traumatic stress disorder and separation anxiety. Adrian should've known better than to trust the black market, but the pokemon—and the price—were compelling factors; enough to coax the otherwise do-gooder into doing something he typically wouldn't. Purchase a pokemon illegally.[break][break]

Should he have realized it was a bad idea? Yes. Had he listened to his conscience? No. As he fetched a few pokeballs from his belt in the waning twilight, he released Howitzer and Iconoclast, leaving Rover to the confines of its pokeball along with the monster from Foretree he'd taken to calling Reign. That left him with an arcanine and a tyranitar, the former running amok while tyranitar remained at his side, content to admire the glow of the sky.[break][break]

The trainer took a seat at a bench, clutching the kadabra's pokeball. Adrian wore full garb that covered most of his body (the nights were getting cooler,) so all that could be seen of his person was the thin line where his hat and mask didn't cover. As he turned the red-on-white sphere over in his gloved palm, he decided to introduce himself to his newest pokemon. A red glow ejected out the kadabra a few yards ahead of him, where its back was turned on him.[break][break]

"Hey," he tried to engage his kadabra, but it seemed to ignore him, so he was forced to try again. "Kadabra, buddy..." Adrian whistled sharply to get its attention, its ear twitching from the provocation. He couldn't tell what the pokemon was thinking, so he began rambling on regardless of its intentions. "Maybe I should give you a name...? How do you feel about Mantra?"[break][break]

Kadabra began to turn towards him, which Adrian would've thought meant it was warming up to him finally, if it wasn't for upcoming madness he was about to endure.

Receiving ill news from his family, Derek had just finished packing the rucksack slung over his shoulder as he exited the gym. Making sure the front doors were locked, as Caius had already fallen asleep, the gym leader would turn from his home and begin walking with his head held low.

“I really hate this.” Derek utters under his breath, talking to himself as he moves towards a clearing where his Garchomp can takeoff properly. Only, there seems to be an individual with their pokemon already there. He's watching the Kadabra turn around, wondering why it had such a terrible look on it's face when...

[attr="class","adrianscroll"]Adrian became saturated with psychokinetic energies as the kadabra about-faced towards him, its clawed hand raised at him channeling the flow of its power, lifting him off the ground into the air. Its eyes were aglow in the dim lighting as the clawed hand began clenching shut, by which point the trainer was already scrambling in panic. "Hey, stop—Kadabra!"[break][break]

[break][break]

As the clawed hand began clenching into a fist, Adrian could feel his wind pipe closing shut, unable to breathe as the disturbed pokemon began to squeeze the life out of him with its mental prowess. Suspended in air his legs kicked frantically, his arms flailing as he tried to grasp at a force that wasn't physical. As time went on the pressure became worse, until he could feel his heart beating in futility, his blood circulation nearly obstructed in its entirety.

The kadabra's fist began to twist, and he could feel something begin to torque his head in the same notion. It was going to snap his neck, finishing him off. He wanted to resist, but Adrian was helpless before it, and would've died if not suffered paralysis.[break][break]

A silhouette rose high above kadabra's unattended flank, a massive tail checking the small stature of kadabra into the ground with extreme prejudice. Tyranitar had paid back its betrayal with its own malice, freeing Adrian from the kadabra's influence, causing him to collapse to the ground with an oomph. While he hacked up his lungs and tried to take a breath, feeling lightheaded from having very nearly been choked unconscious, Adrian leered towards the kadabra with malcontent. Tyranitar stood guard, making no other move except to stand watch over the fainted kadabra.[break][break]

Once Adrian got his bearings, he clambered up to his feet, stamping his way over to the pokemon. "You f@#%'ing absolute menace," be seethed through a hushed tone, lifting a boot as he stood over the kadabra, allowing his adrenaline to do the thinking. He stomped on its bruised body, strike after strike, bludgeoning the miscreant until even tyranitar looked at him with unease.[break][break]

It wasn't until his pokemon tugged him out of his fight-or-flight induced stupor that he realized what he had done, what he was doing to this pokemon. Yes it had tried to kill him, but he could've... it didn't... No. This was all the affiliate's fault from the black market. They'd sold Adrian a stolen pokemon without so much as a warning whether it'd try to kill him. But the truth was, this was Adrian's scapegoat.[break][break]

He'd illegally bought a pokemon, only to end up murdering it. And now, as he realized the lengths of his crime, he had to clean up the mess. Adrian looked around cautiously, hoping nobody had seen what had been going on.

He should've done something. Well, he was going to do something about the person being choked by their own pokemon, but the Tyranitar had already taken care of it. Although, the way the figure stomped on the Kadabra, and the fact it wasn't moving was rather alarming. He'd known Tyranitar to be strong, after all.

'Did they just? ...No, no I can't be bothered with this right now.' And even if they did just kill it, Derek didn't have time to deal with even more death. Besides, he saw just how crazed the look in that Kadabra's eye was. The fact it wasn't just choking them, but twisting their neck...

“Gather your pokemon and get out of here.” Derek says before releasing his Garchomp, which lowers itself so that the gym leader can situate himself on it's back. He gave them one last glance before having his pokemon take to the skies, something of an unamused expression paired with disgust.

But it wasn't directed towards them. Not really. Derek was more-so disgusted with the predicament itself, or the world for abiding by such qualities. As his Garchomp approached mach speeds, his thoughts were a vicious cycle of pain, sorrow and anger.

“I really hate this...”

[attr="class","adrianpost"]
[attr="class","adrianscroll"]Shit. Someone had seen.[break][break]

By the looks of it they'd seen the whole ordeal unfold, although Adrian couldn't be too sure. Their words weighed heavily enough on him as it was, and he could hardly bring himself to fire back with his usual witty retorts. This wasn't like him; to be brutalizing pokemon, skulking around in the dark incognito... it hadn't been what he'd intended for himself, or the kadabra.[break][break]

There was no verbal response. Retrieving tyranitar in its pokeball and scooping the kadabra into his arm, cradling it against himself, he used the other hand and brought it to his mouth to whistle for Howitzer to return to his side. Wherever she'd run off to in the time since he'd let her out he didn't know, but it didn't take her long to come hurtling back to his side.[break][break]

Climbing onto her back, he grabbed a hold of her fur and dug his heel into her side to spur her forward. He'd head back to that shanty where he'd done business with the black market, and try to hold them responsible if he could. But failing that, as much as he hated to say it; he knew a guy who'd take it off his hands. It almost made him feel guilty about it...[break][break]

But it wasn't his fault, the kadabra had forced his hand, he kept telling himself. They should've warned him, Adrian would repeat to himself with increasing vindication.
