SOMETHING IS DEEP ASLEEP... [break]


[attr="class","setting"]



there was a lot of commotion.

[break][break] that was the first thing jayden noticed as he approached the beach. he had been intending on scouting on the beach — research had taught him that a number of patients healed better when being exposed to the salty air and iodine that was supposedly in the air. for his part, jayden had been wondering the truth about it.

[break][break] and so, for lack of anything better to do, the rocket had tried to — what was it people called it? relaxing? taking a sabbatical?

[break][break] a mental health break?

[break][break] but there-in lied the problem.

[break][break] jayden stared as the crowd conglomerated over the scene — in the way of the beach's entrance was a gigantic snorlax, snoring it's worries away. if only everyone could do the same.

[break][break]

[break]
he was running late. shit. shit.
[break][break]
with the HST in full-swing, crowds were swarming the beach like combee to honey. this meant traffic. and traffic meant he was late. so when he runs into another large, gathering crowd, he thinks nothing of it. until he sees why.
[break][break]
"no, no, no, no."
[break][break]
panic sets in. irritation. frustration. why wasn't anyone doing anything about it? ugh. he looks to a random on-looker, grabbing him by the arm.
[break][break]
"you. you're not busy, right? can you help me move this lug? i have somewhere i need to be."

[break][break]
he prayed for a yes.

someone grabs him on the arm and jayden's reflexive reaction is to flinch — instinctively, he wants to wretch the other one away and twist his arm. but he is in a crowd, he reminds himself. today, he is playing the role of not a team rocket agent but a vulnerable citizen of the public.

[break][break] he forces himself to calm down.

[break][break] instead, he forces himself to look into the other's gaze — the other's panic grounds him, somehow, and he finds himself responding. "i - " technically, what the other said was true. he wasn't doing anything. should he have been?

[break][break] "okay," he says, eventually, relenting. he pulls away gently from the other as he reaches to a pokeball on his side and releases his hakamo-o. "ziva."

[break][break] his eyes flick over to the snoring snorlax, and the pokemon understands. she trots forwards and the opens her arms in a NOBLE ROAR aimed to make the other pokemon wake up.

[break][break] it does...

[break][break]absolutely nothing.

[break][break]

"great, thanks!"
[break][break]
his grin is wide and warm, welcoming as the new day sunlight. he had a chance! he turned to assess his options, but raised his brow at the appearance of the other mans pokemon. when it's NOBLE ROAR didn't work, he deflated slightly.
[break][break]

then, an idea struck.
[break][break]

greyson releases his pokemon this time, a large blastoise.
[break][break]

"wake it up!... gently."
[break][break]

he didn't want to hurt the poor creature during a nap, afterall.
[break][break]

blastoise responds, aiming its two cannons upwards and into an arc. it releases a HYDRO PUMP into the air and, with baited breath, greyson watches it curve and land directly on the pokemon's head.
[break][break]
...and do absolutely nothing.
[break]

isn't the only one who deflates a little bit like a balloon. jayden is also disappointed — more than that, though, he is confused. deeply. the noble roar was definitely loud enough to awaken a normal beast — at least jayden thought, since he was the type of person to wake up at the sound of someone creeping across his bedroom floor.

[break][break] the stranger, though, didn't seem the type to give up. the opposite, actually.

[break][break] he released a blastoise and gently decided to wake up the snorlax. or, at least, attempt to. jayden watched in quite curiosity as the other's pokemon released and explosion of water to douse the beast from it's slumber. the result?

[break][break] everyone just got a little bit wet.

[break][break] jayden flinched slightly as the water splashed against his face. somewhere from the crowd, a few girls let out a squeal as they too were splashed in the aftermath. looking down at his torso, the boy pulled his now soaked shirt away from his body — it snapped back. jayden sighed.

[break][break] tilting his head, he considered his options.

[break][break] decisively, jayden returned the dragon type back to it's ball and instead retrieved another pokeball. this time, aurelus' form materialized into view. "shock him."

[break][break] the eelectross' form crackled with light as it used a SPARK to shock the pokemon awake.

[break][break] at least, he attempted to.

[break][break]

"man, this is difficult."
[break][break]
he turns his attention to the stranger as he calls out an electrical-type, understanding his intention. he and his blastoise take a step back, ensuring themselves free of any residual sparks, and watched.
[break][break]

when the electrical current is finished coursing through it's body, it simply brings up a sleep paw to his stomach and scratches it, before falling back asleep.
[break][break]


was it the THICK FAT? no, that wouldn't be it.

he takes the words right out of his mouth. "it is," jayden agrees.

[break][break] he wonders if this counts as disobeying orders. it isn't a mission — jayden had never intended it to be one. yet, somehow, this whole ordeal is taking a lot longer than intended.

[break][break] maybe a mission would've been easier.

[break][break] the boy watches as his pokemon's electricity doesn't do so much as dent the dozing pokemon. if anything, it seems to only fuel the other's sleep more — it scratches its stomach and the rolls over on it's side.

[break][break] jayden turns to the other. he blinks. "what did you have in mind?"

was that the right way to put it? he turns towards the other man, giving him a shrug.

they are, jayden thinks, very different people.

[break][break] rocket has taught him that such actions would be ineffiecient. simply not hurting a pokemon because it was sleeping, or because it had not done anything wrong. he thinks back to the rocket motto. all pokemon existed for the glory of team rocket.

[break][break] "okay, yeah," he says. "that sounds like a good idea."

[break][break] a lie. inefficient. wrong. useless. the words, imbedded in his mind, from years and years of abuse — it nearly makes jayden turn his shoulder, expecting his shuppet to be somewhere in sight.

[break][break] veles is nowhere to be found.

[break][break] instead, jayden tells the other, "ready?"

[break][break] lights spark along aurelus' scales, prepared for the command, eyes sharp.

"awesome. i'm ready."
[break][break]
blastoise tenses.
[break][break]

"3."
[break][break]

blatoise lowers his cannons.
[break][break]

"2."
[break][break]

water pressure builds inside of them.
[break][break]

"1."
[break][break]

he centers his body of gravity.
[break][break]

"go!"
[break][break]

a HYDRO PUMP is pushed out with such a force that the blastoise's heels dig in, and he slides backwards in the sand.

the crowd watches. tenses.

[break][break] the eelektrik surges forward, light crackling along it's scales as floats through the air. his eyes are bright with excitement, following his new "partner". he listens to the movements of his trainer, of the words of the stranger.

[break][break] "go!"

[break][break] the shout mingles with the pokemon's cry, as the water explodes from the turtle's back. the electric type surges forward just in time, an explosive burst of power as the electricity surges around the water and crashes into the dozing creatures.

[break][break] everyone watches. tense. did it work? did it —

[break][break] something flashes in jayden's eyes. familiar. he shouts, "watch out!"

[break][break] without thinking about it, jayden leaps forward and tries to wrap his arm around as he dives. the snorlax had suddenly awoke, standing up, aiming to swipe at the man's form.

[break][break] had jayden gotten there in time?

the wind is knocked out of greyson, as jayden tackle him. they both hit the asphalt with a heavy thump.
[break][break]
the snorlax's attack misses, the weight of his groggy body causing him to stumble. blastoise responds by a heavy-headed SKULL BASH directly to the normal-type's forehead.
[break][break]


dazed, and confused, the snorlax begins to stumble off.
[break][break]


greyson looks at the man that tackled him.
[break][break]


"hey, thanks. you good?"

it's an impulse.

[break][break] but as soon as jayden moved, he knew he shouldn't have done it. he knew — there was a stab of pain in lower torso, something feeling like it had tore - and his vision briefly went blurry from the pain. they hit the ground with an oof and at least seems no worse for wear.

[break][break] jayden... not so much.

[break][break] the snorlax stumbles off, and jayden finds himself looking down at his torso. blood seeps through the fabric of his t-shirt, and as he touches his stomach, he finds blood pooling in his fingers. "ah," he says.

[break][break] greyson asks if he's good — jayden doesn't answer.

greyson turns his attention to the wandering snorlax, ensuring it safely moves on, before looking back down at the stranger for an answer to his previous question. the air smelled faintly of iron, and in moments, he knew why.
[break][break]
"what the hell."
[break][break]

quickly, greyson calls out his comfey, who quickly wraps herself around his wrist.
[break][break]

"a little help, ellie."
[break][break]

taking on a faint glow, she summons what appears to be ethereal flowers that slowly move to wrap around his abdomen and chest. FLORAL HEALING worked better with real flora, but, that was limited due to their scenario.
[break][break]

"don't sweat it man. you'll be fine."
[break][break]

probably.[break][break]

was not going to be happy.

[break][break] the team rocket underboss had told him — had ordered him — to take it easy. the hospital had said to take it easy for three weeks. that meant no missions, no strenuous activity, no trying to prove yourself —

[break][break] was this, jayden thinks, any of those three?

[break][break] his throat closes. a mixture of disappointment, annoyance, and guilt swarm him — though, to the passing bystander, or to ones like who did not personally know him, it would be impossible to tell. his face, as always, is a perfectly blank canvas as he upturns his palm, staring at the blood-red hue that stains his fingers.

[break][break] he doesn't notice when flowers suddenly appear on his abdomen and chest. slowly but surely, they sprout along his skin — tingling. blinking in alarm, jayden looks up before realizing what has done.

[break][break] "i - " he says. "thank you."

[break][break] he dips his head slightly and then forces himself to his feet, only wincing slightly. "i'll be fine," he says with a nod, agreeing. it is not what greyson thinks — jayden is not worried about being alive, not worried about his injury. what he is worried about, more than anything, is —

[break][break] he swallows. no, he tells himself. don't worry about anything until it happens.

[break][break] he takes a breath, hand on his torso, and turns to greyson. "didn't... didn't you say you had somewhere to go?"
