OBSCURA: MARCH OF THE HYPNO

[attr=class,lyric1]
THEN THERE CAME A RUSTLING

[attr=class,lyric2]
THAT SOON BECAME A BUSTLING

[attr=class,bulk]

The dense marine layer hangs over the quiet lower district of Slateport's harbor-side neighborhood like a wet, heavy coat. Even when the clocktower hand strikes 2AM, it does not appear to have the courage to announce it. As of late there has been an element in the city far heavier than the marine layer it has grown accustomed to: the anguish and gloom of its refugees from Hoenn's destroyed districts.[break][break]

They sleep huddled in masses within community shelters dotted throughout. Former citizens of Mauville and Lilycove that had lost their homes, businesses, or jobs in the destruction that ensued. The reconstruction efforts have done well to slowly find many of these people jobs and homes. But those that remain still outweigh those who have left, and a greater diversity of cultural background and lineages has not been seen in this city since, perhaps, its inception.[break][break]

Tonight would have been another eerily peaceful night like all the others since the war's end. But, instead, a league of bipedal creatures lurk in the darkness that hugs the city's alleyways and streets. The locks to doors and windows all across the neighborhood are quietly turned open through means of psychic power. These creatures invade these buildings with soundless footsteps, slipping through unbeknownst to the sleeping humans they loom over.[break][break]

A Growlithe falls victim to their powerful influence just as soon as it notices their presence, but not soon enough to prevent a curt yelp. The few people that open their eyes, however, are met with the sight of swinging pendulum, and rendered the same fate as the dog before them. They succumb back into a sleep far more unnatural than the one they woke up from. The creatures, in the meantime, resume their work, sniffing and searching for candidates to lull away. Or, in the case of the smaller human beings, simply carry away.[break][break]

[break][break]

An uncanny midnight procession of Hypno and sleepwalkers, walking silently down the dark cobbled streets of the district, soon begins to form. They steadily head in the direction of the harbor down three separate boulevards. Not far off, from the rooftop of a four-story building, a pair of spotlights suddenly flicker on. They sweep across the night sky in gentle waves. It is clearly automated. But, for a second, the tremble of a human hand visibly shakes the light. Something is amiss in Slateport tonight. And no one seems to be awake to see it, save for a handful of people...[break][break]

| | |

[break][break]

The main plaza was empty when Agnés and Remiel teleported into it. The currently barren Seking Fountain, surrounded by curved stone benches and greenery, was all that occupied the normally bustling space. The moonlight seemed to shine on the white stone like a spotlight from above. The city surrounding it, in the meantime, was shrouded in shadows and secrecy.[break][break]

Though lucky to have received a call from his shipyard worker about a suspicious Galarian roaming about, Remiel hadn't heard from the man since. Activating the beepers each member of Obscura held was not a decision he made lightly. But something was certainly off, and this was the first time he'd activated them anyway, even after the trials and tribulations of wartime.[break][break]

Whether his brethren remembered the predesignated teleport landmark for Slateport, or whether they had received the call to convene at all, was yet to be seen. But he stood beneath a flickering lamp post with his blue Gardevoir and waited anyway. It would be unwise to proceed alone, he thought. Especially if this 'Galarian man' his worker had seen was part of the infamous organization he stood against.[break][break]

He rubbed his hands together warmly as he looked up at the clouded night sky. Agnés, in the meantime, sensed a strange foreboding presence in the air. She stared directly into the shadows of a nearby alleyway, her eyes narrowed with suspicion.[break]

[break]

round objectives:[break][break]

☐ have your character convene in the plaza (obscura members)[break]
☐ tell us where your character is (non-obscura members)[break][break]

overall objectives:[break][break]

☐ stop the swarm of hypno from kidnapping people[break]
☐ discover the true identity of the trainer pulling the strings[break]
☐ investigate the spotlights coming from a nearby building[break]
☐ try to maintain a low profile for the sake of safety[break][break]

instructions:[break][break]

— there is no posting order, but please wait until everyone has posted to post again[break]
— each pokémon of yours can perform 1 move per round[break]
— please include a tl;dr note of your important actions[break]
— have FUN[break][break]

tl;dr:[break][break]

Remiel raises an Obscura alarm after a shipyard informant warns him of a suspicious Galarian stranger. Those of who you who have been recruited are asked to teleport to the main plaza and figure out what's happening from there. Those of you who haven't been recruited can take this chance to insert yourselves here in a means we can discuss through PM. I tagged out of courtesy, participation is not mandatory![break][break]

Food was scarce at this point.

As a kid, he’d stayed out of trouble relatively as much as possible, however the thing was that he was running low on cash and desperately needed to find some of the money that made the world go round.

While he did have a temporary place to sleep in (capsule hotels, while a rarity were a fucking lifesaver for the broke-as fuck teenager) the payment for the ‘rent’ on his ‘room’ was coming up and he needed to scrounge up money, quickly.

He was… sorely disappointed to see that there was nobody out this late, people who were drunk out of their minds were easier to snatch wallets from—rich people even more so.

So when Arashi saw someone walking down towards the harbor, he quickly gave chase—only he had to come to a stop for a few moments because why the hell was this person trundling around Slateport, at two in the morning, in nothing but their sleepwear?

“What—the fuck,” he muttered, looking around quickly and hoping nobody spotted him. Not too far from where he stood, he saw more people coming, and quickly scrambled in that direction, mentally crossing his fingers and hoping they had wallets he could steal.

Unfortunately… that was not the case either!

Hissing at the sight of even more people in sleep wear trundling down towards… the harbor? What was going on? He then ducked behind an alleyway, hoping that he could keep an eye on what the shit was happening.

• Arashi needs money, and fast
• Makes up his mind to look for some wallets to snatch
• Sees someone, however they’re in their sleep wear.
• What the fuck? – his mind
• Looks for anyone who’s not dressed in sleep wear, fails.
• Ducks behind an alleyway to watch for further developments

In the dark bedroom of his Fallarbor residence, Gavin stirs awake to an unfamiliar sound. Sitting up and rubbing sleep from his eyes, the disgruntled Galarian fumbles for the beeper on the bedside table and turns it off. It's the first time Remiel has sent out a mass call to Obscura, and Gavin assumes the worst. Though his comfortable bed beckons him back to the land of slumber, he resigns himself to answering. A quick glance toward his partner assures him that the sound had not disturbed her rest, and he exhales in relief before swinging his legs over the side of the bed and rising unsteadily to his feet. He does not turn on the light, electing to dress in darkness so as not to disrupt Emma's rest.[break][break]

A warm night greets Gavin on the back step, and the Galarian lifts his gaze to a reassuring cloudy sky. Necrozma had decimated many of his options for quick, stealthy travel, but cloud cover would obscure his Corviknight's silvered wings.[break][break]

They circle the skies over the designated meeting-place, the sharp eyes of Gavin's corvid searching for signs of threat. Only when they are certain they will not be spotted by anyone other than Remiel Calcifet himself do they leave the sanctuary of the clouds. Large though the avian was, the silver-feathered Corviknight is graceful and silent as it touches down next to their ally. Gavin dismounts and levels Remiel with a gaze that is sharp and alert in spite of the dark bags beneath his eyes.[break][break]

"I got here as quickly as I could." In Rocket, Gavin has superiority, but on matters pertaining to Obscura he must rely upon the other for guidance. He does not miss the Gardevoir's stare. "What are we dealing with?"[break][break]

[attr="class","pokesprite pokemon corviknight shiny"]

Gavin arrives on his shiny Corviknight, using the clouds as cover.[break]
Lands next to Remiel and asks what's going on! Corviknight stands sentinel next to him, but the rest of his pokeballs are obscured by the jacket he wears.

as people shuffled around in their sleep kazimir himself would be found among many of those sleepwalkers. despite the cold morning air whipping around him as he wore only pj bottoms he was still out light like a light. he would blend into the crowd as they walked along, his path being that near the water as they everyone moved in sync like they had somewhere to be.
[break][break]
behind him one would be able to see the shape of a bird type pokemon flying above, its shadow circling around him almost as if it was protecting its trainer from doing anything crazy like fall into the water. still with this many sleepwalkers around it was hesitant to even get close at first and would keep its distance. that was all the braviary could do at this point without causing a scene, and that was something best left to its own trainer to do than itself.

the overcast set above the coastal city that was one of the first to welcome newcomers to hoenn. nat stepped off the boat, their galarian steed trotting nearby and his loyal sirfetch'd waddled in front of them. it was oddly quiet for a port town as infamous as this one. there were a few stragglers who were heading out from the docks and nat followed suit, tucking their jacket into themself as they aimlessly wandered. this was a new town, a new journey, and they hoped - a new start.

what were all those people doing? there was a mob following... hypno? a look of confusion crossed their face as they stepped into the shadows with a hand on the hilt of their sword, whispering, "l'ombre du passé, fais ce que je veux." in that instant, the darkness swallowed the young man with a silent shadow sneak.

nat manifested behind the crowd, in the shadow of Kazimir Wynter. "oi. ye okay there bruv?" they muttered, giving the shirtless pajama man a once over.

march of the hypno

[attr="class","runrunpost"]

babysitting is an especially daunting task in the dachev household when togepi is doing everything she can to taunt the crying sobble. it is in the wee hours of that november morning that valerio is still up, trying to calm patrick when he notices something amiss outside the streets of downtown slateport. a procession of seemingly mindless individuals marches down the road like a scene that comes out from a horror movie. the sight of which haunts the sobble even more, who is now relentlessly wailing with nothing to console him. the redhead sighs, looking at the chameleon with reassuring eyes.[break][break]

“i'm gonna check it out so you don't have to cry anymore, okay?” he eyes the kangaskhan to take care of the sobble as he prepares, collecting a few of his dragons in his pocket before lifting off on his charizard.[break][break]

the fog is thick when he breaks into the sky but the ground is still visible from his viewpoint. from above, he notices the parade going into the harbor led by a band of hypnotizing hypnos. that's sick, he thinks, cringing as his eyes roam in another corner of the town. at the main plaza, he witnesses a few people congregating by the fountain. with a light tap, he rushes hoon towards their location.[break][break]

that's when he sees the face of familiar colleagues. “hey!” he waves atop the orange dragon, still hovering in the air. “are you here because of those sleepwalkers? do you guys even know what's happening?”[break][break]

charizard (m) / blaze - tough claws / hurricane - heatwave - thunder punch - bulldoze - solar beam - breaking swipe

[break]
tl/dr;[break]

valerio tucks a crying sobble to sleep (and miserably fails) that's why he's still awake by that time[break]

valerio notices the sleepwalkers, sobble cries even more; he promises to "handle" it as he lifts off with charizard[break]

valerio and charizard hovers in the air and gets a sight of everything that is happening (sleepwalkers led by hypnos, people gathering in the main plaza)[break]

valerio says hi to Remiel Calcifet and Cillian Quinn, wondering what's happening and if they know something about it (he doesn't know anything about obscura... yet)

Fall settles in the atmosphere and her people come alive in the chill of the night. It is a time of movement, leading to the celebrations they hold in the growing darkness. while the rest of the world has been lamenting the acts of the megalopians, the destructions of cities and lives, her people have been dancing in the crevices of the night.

The world is changing, the shift in the air, as if all the spaces they see and can be are shifting into one, it brings them alive. Isra observes it with an unusual glint in her eyes.

A disruption, it almost goes ignored. The watchful eyes of her mother glare at the device in her hands. Isra strives to ignore her more than the message, there are already many things for her mother to pick at when the night is over. There is more for her to try and destroy if she finds out about it and Isra keeps herself guarded when the woman inquires.

The priestess excuses herself from her people, no other could pry her away but him.

x x x

Her gardevoir brings them to the shadows, her banette has kept her in them with his own as they tread through the city streets. There is no clicking of heels to announce her arrival tonight. The Nightingale is silent in her endeavor, the gardevoir already tucked away with only the ghost still at her side.

A tap on her hip brings the shadow of the ghost out into the open with her. It moves faster than she does across the pavement, the shadow forms a step that she takes with quiet glee.

Closeness makes her blatent, Remiel will find her chin on his shoulder in greeting. Gavin is met with a small wave. Should others be there to see her entrance she does not seem inclined to comment just yet.

The ghost lingers in the shadows behind them, watchful and waiting.

Oscar yawned, having just finished packing the last of his kitchenware. 80% of his apartment was now in boxes, with his move two days away he was making good progress. His lite Mauville apartment looked so empty, the nostalgia that gripped him as he observed it almost made him forget how much he hated living here.

As he transported the box to the living room, Oscar reflected on his future. It was certainly bright: a new loft in Sootopolis, his acquisition of his parents' company, Billi Marsh. Oscar sighed wistfully before shaking his head. No no no not Billi, he had no room in his grand scheme. Though, perhaps he could make room? Yes surely he could, especially after that night--NO! Now more than ever Oscar could not afford any distractions. Though speaking of...

Oscar suddenly heard a bizarre buzzing noise followed by a beep. At first he thought it was coming from a different apartment, but as it went on it became evident it was coming from somewhere within his own. He carefully searched for the source, eventually following the sound to his bedroom. Most of his bedroom furniture had yet to be packed, and the buzzing and accompanying beep was clearly coming from his nightstand.

He opened the nightstand's drawer, and picked up a beeper. When did he get one of these? It buzzed in his hands as he examined the message. Oh--oh--OH!. Oscar's eyes widened as he silenced the beeper and threw it aside. How could he have forgotten Remiel Calcifet's secret order? He hastily ripped open one of his boxes, pulling out a neatly packed suit and red tie. After getting dressed, he giddily chose is pokemon for the upcoming challenge. He was so excited, he felt like he was a superhero being called for a team up.

When fully prepared, Oscar let out Razor the dragapult. He leapt onto Razor's back and tapped his head, "Slateport, where we practiced." Razor nodded, disappearing into the shadows with his master in tow (Phantom Force). Oscar appeared in a burst of darkness at the meeting place. He chuckled happily as he hopped off Razor. He naturally recognized Remiel, Isra, and Gavin but did not know the fourth man. Was he too a member? Oscar awkwardly waved to him, "Hey, Oscar. A pleasure." He quickly turned to Remiel, with whom he was clearly more comfortable talking to. "What are the marching orders? Ready for anything!"

Fuck yeah this was gonna be sweet.

Tl;dr
Oscar used Phantom force to appear at the meeting spot.

Adrian was already unconscious in an unscrupulous den of debauchery, whiling away the evening hours until night had encroached upon them. It wasn't atypical to awake to being abandoned, though from the amount of paraphernalia still left on the glass table sitting just ahead of the couch he was dozing on proved... uncanny. Where was everyone?

The doors were all unlocked, some even left ajar, swinging on creaking hinges as Adrian pushed back through a labyrinth of archways to find himself on the city streets of Slateport. The hour was nearly 2AM which explained the silence, but not the absence of his entourage. Can't I have a normal night out? What's up with this sh!t lately...

Rather than go it alone, Adrian releases Omen at his side, unwilling to venture out alone into the dark underworld of Slateport's night life.

As he's rather sobered up but more vexed than aught else, he begins to investigate, although it doesn't take long for him to notice a few folks rummaging through some alleys. As he peers at them however, he begins to question his senses, and the validity of his sobriety at present...

Did I drop acid; those look like Hypno more than people to me... If this is some prank...

...It was a pretty damn good one.

Amber woke up to see a circular, blue Pokemon nudging her insistently.

She woke easily, because of the jetlag. She blinked for a moment at her unfamiliar surroundings, before remembering that she'd checked into a hotel room for the night.

Bramimond, after Amber woke up, had floated over to the second-story window, looking down on the scene below her, and did a double-take. There was a parade of sleepwalkers, walking down the street and being chaperoned by Hypno. Even as she watched, Hypno entered other buildings through doors and windows, and the parade only grew in size.

Amber looked straight down and saw what must have been a Hypno scaling the very hotel that she was in, climbing towards her own window.

Well, this was bad, she thought as she inhaled sharply and stepped backwards. She moved to a drawer and gathered up her Pokeballs, pausing for a moment to let out Franz. The Phantump looked up at Amber inquisitively.

"Franz, we're going down. Try not to make any sound," she said. To Bramimond, she said, "Join us if you see us on the street, but try to deal with the Hypno coming up here." She hesitated. "Can you do that?"

The Bronzor couldn't nod, but it wobbled in a way that Amber had learned meant yes. She nodded, and began down the stairs, trying to keep her footsteps quiet.

After Amber had left, Bramimond watched as the window slid open, and a Hypno's yellow-furred head poked past it. The Bronzor was already glowing with a soft pink light, and as the Hypno laid eyes on it, the Pokemon was treated to a dose of its own medicine, falling asleep on the spot. Unfortunately for the Hypno, its grip on the windowsill slackened, and it fell to the ground, landing with a thump. Bramimond watched for Amber, unfazed.

SUMMARY
- Amber gets woken up by her Bronzor
- Amber looks out the window of her hotel room
- Amber sees the Hypno and sleepwalkers
- Amber takes her stuff and heads downstairs with Phantump
- Bronzor hits a Hypno with Hypnosis, and it falls down to the ground
- Bronzor watches the road to join Amber when she shows up

[attr=class,bulk]

Arashi Akiyama

[break][break]

Taking cover in the alleyway proves to be a smart move for Arashi Akiyama as a pair of Hypno turn the corner from both sides of the street. They shepherd the line of sleepwalking civilians while softly humming, holding up and keeping their pendulums in swing with a single hand. Merely looking in the same direction, and not necessarily at the swinging coins themselves, however, threatens to render Arashi hypnotized.[break][break]

In the meantime, something lurks in the darkness of the alleyway behind him, peeking out from behind a dumpster. Should he feel its presence and turn to look at it, it would hide away completely. But revealing it would require moving deeper into the alley...[break][break]

Cillian Quinn , Valerio Dachev , Isra Nightingale , oscar clayton

[break][break]

Grey-blue eyes observe as the almost perfectly camouflaged corvid descends from the clouded night sky. Remiel greets Cillian Quinn with a polite nod after he dismounts. He had, naturally, expected the underboss to be punctual. Beyond that, he still felt a pang of relief whenever the man proved that he was committed to this cause. One of Rocket's greatest assets had become theirs as well. "Thank you for coming. Truth be told, I've yet to find out." He answers.[break][break]

In an instant, Remiel's expression hardens with concern when he spots a flickering flame high above. It softens when he discerns Valerio Dachev 's vaguely recognizable face atop the Charizard. It is one of their own, thankfully. At least in the sense of being from Team Rocket. But even so, the man shows little discretion, so the royal shoots him a glare. "Sleepwalkers? What do you mean?" He supposes the possibility of the man freely giving away their position can be overlooked for now.[break][break]

Whether or not Valerio Dachev descends or answers, the royal's attention suddenly shifts to the black-haired belle (Isra Nightingale ) that leans on his shoulder. He is pleased to see her, especially after having so many a romantic night stolen away by her mysterious obligations and his own political responsibilities. The greeting between them is unspoken, yet profoundly warm nonetheless. It doesn't linger long, however, after the soft 'swoosh' from a shadowy portal that opens up nearby.[break][break]

The familiar sound leads his nonchalant eyes to the familiar sight of the dragon that had summoned it, and the Rocket grunt who commanded said dragon. oscar clayton had proven himself several times to Remiel before. Though now he realized he wasn't entirely sure the man had been introduced to the rest of them. His inquiry, nonetheless, is a welcome transition into Remiel's suggested plan of action. Though the admin does cast a suspicious look at Valerio Dachev for a brief second. They must be careful about what they say out in the open... for now.[break][break]

"An adversary of ours has been spotted in the area. We must split-up and patrol this district for anything suspicious before they slip away. I'll head to the neighborhood to see these 'sleepwalkers'. Two of you should go to the harbor. The other two should investigate... that." He says, pointing north at the searchlights swaying in the night sky.[break][break]

"Be discreet. Be cautious. But move forward with haste."

[break][break]

Kazimir Wynter , NATALIE OSWALD [break][break]

[break][break]

With the influx of sleeping bodies roaming the streets, an entire flock of Munna gradually begin to descend from the clouds above, sweeping across the city from the east. The preternatural scent of dreams and nightmares has summoned their hunger forth, and a few of them have already delicately perched themselves atop the heads of sleepwalkers. As they did so, delightfully feasting away at mental machinations humanity hardly understood, their bodies slowly began to emit spurts of pink and black mist.[break][break]

The Munna seemed unbothered by the Hypno or even the Braviary sharing the sky with them. In turn, the Hypno that shepherd the sleepwalkers by the waterfront do nothing to shoo them away either. This leads to one of these Munna eventually deciding upon Kazimir's bedhead of blonde locks, floating past the awake man (NATALIE OSWALD ) who has approached its prey without a care.[break][break]

Though seemingly innocent, however, something about being under the spell of the Hypno and having their dreams eaten at the same time seems instinctively dangerous. Those who had been subject to the Munna from the very beginning begin to show symptoms of discomfort. The Hypno several meters ahead, with their backs turned to Rocket member, do not seem to notice or care.[break][break]

Meanwhile, without an interception— from his pokémon, NATALIE OSWALD or otherwise— Kazimir Wynter was in real danger of being afflicted with an unknown handicap as he slept...[break][break]

Adrian Malcolm , @amber

[break][break]

Without the use of its hands, which had gripped themselves firmly to the outdoor window sill, the Hypno that had attempted to invade @amber 's room had no access to the trinket that enhanced its power. This, in turn, made it absolutely susceptible to the Bronzong's own HYPNOSIS. Its nature as an EARLY BIRD would have made the effects of this hypnosis relatively short... had it not fallen two stories and missed crashing into Adrian Malcolm by just a few feet.[break][break]

Thud!

[break][break]

Its collision with the ground rendered the creature immediately unconscious. As Amber finished descending the stairs and exiting the building, finding herself face-to-face with Adrian Malcolm , the pair would quickly realize that the sound had attracted the attention of two other Hypno up ahead. They turned over their shoulders to stare at their fallen comrade and the conscious human beings with an unsettling look.[break][break]

[break][break]

Before too long, however, these shepherds of the sleepwalkers would turn around completely and advance. One of them would attempt to immobilize the Phantump with the painful force of a PSYSHOCK. The other, in the meantime, hunched over as he swung his pendulum with careful precision at the human and his Grimmsnarl. The effects of this HYPNOSIS seemed bolstered by some unseen force. It appeared to have the capability of putting under more than just one or two individuals at the same time.

Arashi is being stalked by something in the alleyway as a pair of Hypno approach. To everyone in the plaza, Remiel suggests splitting up to figure out what is going on. A Munna tries to land on Kazimir's head to eat his dreams in front of Nat. Both Braviary and Nat might have an inkling that this act may be more dangerous to Kazimir's health than it seems, however. Meanwhile, Amber runs into Adrian after successfully foiling a Hypno's plot to hypnotize her. The two are then approached and attacked by two other Hypno.[break][break]

valerio plops down the ground with a thud, hoon still above the air. the rocket admin's reserved response is met with skepticism, but he decides to play along. “they're sleepwalking... so they're sleepwalkers? and it's scary cause there's a bunch of them and they're led by a bunch of hypnos.”[break][break]

he is cut short as Isra Nightingale approaches the team, a familiar face he recognizes but fails to remember where. Remiel Calcifet does not mention of anything rocket-related so he maintains his guards up as he faces a lot of unknown characters, even as the new rocket beast arrives.[break][break]

“adversary?” valerio squints his eyes as remiel continues to speak. is he talking about the league? silas-age rockets? other gangs? there is much confusion painted on the redhead's face, shooting Cillian Quinn with a questioning look as if saying, do you know what the fuck he is talking about? the galar prince finishes talking and when he suggests about the split, he immediately clings to the underboss's arms.

“take me, gav.” he smiles cheekily. “let's go check the spotlight?”[break][break]

kaz was completely unaware of anything going on around him, his dreams of competeing in the pro wrestling leagues were enough to keep his mind busy. it also attracted some munna that were hiding and latching onto some of the other sleepwalkers. as one got close it was quickly knocked away by his braviary using an ariel ace to send it flying and slapped kazimir in the process with its wing, waking the blond up.
[break][break]
"huh wha? where...where the heck am i? and why am i naked?!" on instinct he covered his torso with his arms as he looked around to see he was in a crowd of people walking around aimlessly and his braviary landing next to him and nuzzling his face. "valiant hold on! what am i doing out here?! and why are all these...hey watch out!"
[break][break]
he spotted the munna that was knocked away try to land on another person's head. whatever it was going to do kaz wasn't about to let it happen so he quickly tackled the sleepwalker to the ground, avoiding the munna and scaring it off. "phew...close one."

So evidently, the Hypno weren't part of some prank or hallucination, but an actual physical threat to Slateport. He'd begun sobering up when a Hypno crash landed a few meters away with an unpleasant sound as it collided with the sidewalk.

Adrian offers a shrug casually to the one named Amber as she arrives down below, hoping not to arouse suspicion. "It wasn't my Hypno..."

Little did they know they've become the object of more Hypnos' ire as they're leered at by a conspicuous pair from further up the lane. It wasn't until Grimmsnarl nudged him that Adrian became conscious to the looming threat. "What now?"

Seemed more and more like a concerted effort... Or a very unlikely, unusually large Hypno swarm that somehow wandered into Slateport that night.

And yet there's not a single trainer in sight...

She opens the door, and flinches as she comes face to face with some other guy.

She waves a hand in front of his face, to ensure that he's actually awake, but then feels stupid when he speaks up. "Oh, sorry," she mutters back, being sure to try and keep their voices down. "Do you know what's happening here?"

Before Adrian Malcolm can reply, though, the two of them are besieged by two more Hypno, who wave their pendulums at them, attempting to either attack Franz or put Adrian to sleep. Amber panicked for a second before remembering that she did have other Pokemon, one of which should have seen her step on to the street by now.

And it did. Bramimond swooped down from its place on the second floor window, silently placing a Safeguard on the general area that Amber and Adrian are in. Franz, not bothering to try and avoid the Hypno's psychic attack, would try to ram his assailant with Horn Leech, his branches glowing faint green as they siphoned the target's life force.

SUMMARY
- Hi Adrian
- Bronzor enters and uses Safeguard on Adrian and Amber's teams
- Phantump uses Horn Leech on the Hypno that Psyshocked him
