The peace of the day was suddenly broken right after Tarot struck him with the spoon. Zachary nearly jumped there as they all turned around, spying the young girl with her own pokemon. A large yellow one, an adorable togodile and a sunkern nestled in her arms. Zachary blinked at her, totally not expecting to be teleported right before another person. [break][break] "Oh-- Hi! Sorry about the fright. I like to teleport to get around, makes revisiting certain places much, much easier." Zachary explained to the stranger as he smiled sheepishly, embarrassed. Seeing that he just startled her in a place where plenty of ghost pokemon gathered... Zachary took a moment to think and then spoke. "Um, I'm Zachary. This is Dizzy, and Nyx," Zachary introduced to his Delphox and Hoothoot on his shoulder, who gave a bark or hoot and flap of her tiny wings to greet the woman and her pokemon. "I'm a psychic trainer and I was taking the short-cut to return to this area to go finding some new Pokemon and explore a bit more. Really sorry if I startled you. Tarot, my Kadabra, is a good teleporter but never expected to bump into someone like that." Zachary explained. [break][break] Dizzy sniffed the air near the giant yellow sheep pokemon, who loomed several heads above them. Nyx gave a friendly wave to the Sunkern-- though it was easy for the little owl to get hungry looking at a seed-- but was far better behaved. If allowed, the owl would gladly fly and land on the girl's shoulders, greeting her with a friendly nudge of her feathers. [break][break] The rumble of thunder was heard overhead, causing them to look up. The sky was terribly dark and overcast, even though it was the afternoon. Suspicion turned to fact as soon a drop of water fell from the dark sky-- splattering on poor Dizzy's foxy nose. The Delphox flinched and brushed his nose off, and soon saw the bits of water start to fall around them. [break][break] Zachary sighed and shrugged as he saw the rain start to fall. "Great... so much for an adventure out here..." Zachary sighed, as the rain began to slowly but steadily increase. Anxious to get out of the rain-- the Delphox decided to escape by scooting closer to Zachary and slipped under the tail of his jacket. Also wanting to avoid the rain, Nyx hooted as she flew into Zachary's chest and tries to get under his jacket too! "Guys! Hey! Quit it! There's not enough room for anyone under there!" Zachary argued, feeling as if he was being mugged as he felt them try to keep out of the rain. [break][break] While their plans for exploring was shot to hell-- the crack of lightning in the distance illuminated the area, and as thunder rumbled-- [break][break]-- they could see a house. [break][break] It was a rather big house, looking like some kind of mansion all the way in the neck of the woods. While worn down, it had a regal vibe and was a welcomed sight considering the sky now opened up to rain down dread on them. [break][break] Zachary looked to the girl, still not knowing her, but still figured she wouldn't want to get soaked too! [break][break] "Um any chance you want to take this over there-- before we are soaked? " Zachary asked, not exactly questioning the odd mansion that just HAPPENED to be there. [break][break] The irony of the situation was not lost on Zachary as he was sure that this was in a scary movie somewhere. [break][break] But this was reality... what kind of ghosts could possibly live there? Right? [break][break] Luckily the house had an awning made with pillars, giving them some cover as they just stood in the doorway area, keeping out of the reach of the rain. [break][break] Having struggled, Dizzy soon got out from Zachary's jacket as did Nyx, the little owl shaking her feathers to get what water off she could. [break][break] A sigh escaped Zachary as he rested against the back of the door. "Ugh... bad timing. I didn't even think any buildings were out here in the routes like this," Zachary said as he was just grateful to get out of the rain for the moment. [break][break] For now, he hoped to get to know who this young woman was and her pokemon too-- who were very interesting to see interact with him. [break][break]

As the girl introduced her Pokemon, Hoothoot greeted them back along with Dizzy, especially the fox checking out the big amphoramos. Zachary smiled, "NIce to meet you. Your tododile is very cute, but um, I didn't catch your name though...?" Zachary added politely, realizing she never introduced herself. [break][break] The rain was not letting up. The sky grew darker and now sounded like a series of drumbs on the ground and roof of the building. Finally, lightning and thunder ripped the sky-- which caused Dizzy to flinch and cover his big furry ears from the sound. Zachary petted the Delphox, realizing the storm wasn't letting up. Zachary knew the place wasn't the ideal Pokemon center-- but what other choice did they have? " It may be a well... unusual house, but I'm sure its better than waiting out here for the rain to clear. Let's just take a---" Zachary cracked open the door and as he did-- [break][break] Brrrruuuu! The ghostly wail of Ghost Pokemon came as a Dreepy and a Driftbloom flew out! [break][break] Zachary jumped back as the two Ghosts came flying out. They were fun Pokemon, but he was more interested to get in side. [break][break] Zachary and his Pokemon soon got inside the entrance of the building. There he was greeted to a dark, hallway, with some furniture and unlit candils that marked the way. The house did look good and even 'well decorated' if it hadn't been dusty and worn down by time. Dizzy entered, now having his stick on fire to light up their way inside. Nyx still was on Zachary's shoulder, and shook her feathers to dry herself. Zachary flinched at the light spray of water from his feathered friend. [break][break] "Seems to be safe... for now?" Zachary said as he looked around. Now that they were out of the rain, he felt he could introduce his other pokemon-- besides the Misbehaving Tarot/Kadabra. "Here are my other friends." [break][break] Zachary released his Pokemon-- soon showing his Mime Jr, named Happy, the excentric bird Xatu, Prophet, and last but not least-- a certain chummy and mischievous Haunter, Greed. [break][break] Now five out in total, they looked around the old house. Happy was curious, while Xatu didn't express any opinion-- and Greed was just giddy to be in a haunted house-- being a ghost. [break][break] Zachary could only hope that the girl was not scared of this kind of place. Zachary was not scared of 'haunted houses' or at least he wasn't aware to be. Still, it was better than being stuck in the rain. [break][break] Despite the two ghost pokemon who flew by, things were quiet as they were in the hall, looking around to see if anyone was there-- until, Happy saw a small figure behind the nearest corner. The little clown looked, to find something moving. "Mime! Mi-mi-mime!" Happy cried, and pointed to the corner to get Zachary's attention. [break][break] Zachary glanced to just catch it out of the corner of his eye-- a small figure hiding behind the corner, gave way by a tuff of dark fur. "Huh, over there?" Zachary said, clearly seeing the figure hiding. Figuring it might be scared itself, Zachary spoke up. "Hello? Is someone there? You don't have to hide. Sorry to just barge in but we were hiding from the rain. Please come out. We don't mean any trouble," He called out. [break][break] At first there was nothing-- till the dark furry creature poked its head out, revealing beautiful green eyes and stuffs of white on its fur. "Mreeow...?" the Pokemon mewed, looking to be a cat. [break][break] Zachary gasped as he saw it more, revealing it to be a Meowstic. He looked happy to see it, as a Psychic-Pokemon trainer, he knew it immediately and was excited by it. "Oh wow, a Meowstic..." Zachary said with silent surprise. He took out his Pokedex to record it. [break][break] [break][break] The shy little Meowstic looked at the visitors and their pokemon, clearly seeing they were all in the house in the little hall, and wondered what they were doing here. Still shy, the blue, male Meowstic stuck his head out from the corner. He looked on guard, wary and almost... scared? Perhaps they were all there and in such a large number, making the cat nervous. [break][break] Seeing this, Happy took a few steps forward. The Meowstic flinched a bit from the corner-- but Happy soon gave a greeting cheer and raised a hand to say hello to the cat. Though technically intruders, Happy was just extending his cheerful nature to show they were friendly. The cat seemed to ease up seeing the Mime Jr, letting out a soft meow of curiosity and ease. [break][break] "Wow... i didn't think we would find one in here. it's so cute and fluffy." Zachary said, having a soft spot for this kind of cat pokemon. [break][break]

Meowstic was still on guard, keeping his distance, but Happy was slowly working its cheerful magic to make the cat more at ease. The Mime Jr had the gift of spreading cheer-- more suitable with being helpful than battle. Slowly, the cat waddled out to meet the group of humans and Pokemon. "Mreow...?" it mewed, curious to them all. [break][break] Zachary felt bad how they just barged in. It was clear this house was home to some pokemon now. Zachary carefully approached the Meowstic, being mindful of his new friend Himari. It was nice she too made friends with Pokemon. "I'm very sorry to barge in unannounced. We kind of got caught in the storm outside. I know its asking a lot, but... could we stay here a while? Till the storm passes?" Zachary kindly asked. [break][break] The cat paused a moment-- then suddenly its ears perked up and expression lit up! "Mreeeoow!" it cheered. It was almost very enthused by the offer. Like a hotel employee who had not seen a guest in a while! THe friendly cat waddled closely to Zachary and reached out to take a hold of Zachary's sleeve to guide him. [break][break] "Wow... this Meowstic is a lot more friendly than I thought!" Zachary giggled as the cat practically welcomed them in now. [break][break] Dizzy gave a happy bark as he used his torch to light the way for the other pokemon-- at least till Meowstic saw it. Happiness turned to fright, and then anger as the cat glared at the flame and gave a cat-like hiss. The cat's ears up and the eyeball patterns glowed-- which caused the small flame on Dizzy's stick to suddenly go out. Dizzy looked puzzled, and hurt by it, as the Mewostic put out his little torch. The fox looked to the Meowstic, a touch peeved. [break][break] Zachary frowned and looked between them. "Um, Dizzy? I think Meowstic here doesn't want to have a fire risk? Maybe... just put the stick away for now please?" Zachary asked his partner. [break][break] With a reluctant grumble, the fox put his stick away into his fur. The Meowstic calmed down and smiled to Dizzy. [break][break] Looking around-- they all could tell. Much of the building showed signs of fire. Charred wood, blackened walls. This place had suffered some kind of disaster over the years. Perhaps the little cat was trying to preserve the house, and having another fire probably made the cat very upset. [break][break] But things got even more complicated-- as another wild pokemon appeared. This time, a Litwik! The little ghostly candle, hopped around, the flame alit on its head! It was clearly a wild one, who had gotten into the house and was hopping around all giddy, perhaps either willing to fight or just being a child running through the house. [break][break] Meowstic got agitated again, scolding the Litwik but it wouldn't listen. Soon, also came out a little Duoism. Another psychic type Zachary was able to identify too! "Oh wow, a Duoism too! Lucky me!" Zachary got out his pokedex and went to record the two. [break][break][break][break] Zachary paused as he saw all this and stopped. While it was roudy, neither one seemed hostile at first glance. "They don't seem that dangerous..." Zachary said as he looked at the pokedex and then to HImari. [break][break] It was then that the Duosion spotted Zachary and gingerly floated over to him. Zachary smiled, seeing this one was very friendly as it approached. "Hi there. Nice to meet you. Think we can get to know one another?" Zachary asked. [break][break] The green Pokemon looked up to him, and then suddenly hopped up, embracing Zachary with a slimy hug. It smeared all over his jacket as the cell membrane of its body met him. [break][break] Zachary suppressed the urge to revolt at the sensation, but was grateful as he did wanted to meet and catch one. "Ahaha... wow it really is friendly. Easy there, haha... " Zachary said, clearly seeing this pokemon was a hugger. [break][break] Meowstic still acted on alert at all the wild pokemon. It was easy to tell the cat had to deal with a lot. Perhaps it saw itself as his house and was doing its best to protect the place. Some pokemon called it home, others just barged in to cause mischief and roughhouse... maybe worse. [break][break]

Meowstic's fur was on end as the Litwick recklessly hopped around, its head ablazed. However-- Himari was kind enough to catch it, and while probably not a soul stealer-- it was still a pyromanic to the cat. So when Himari caught it, Meowstic didn't hesitate to express his gratitude and meow with a smile-- and nudged the girl's leg in a cat-like way of gratitude. [break][break] Zachary knelt down, as the Duosiom rolled around Zachary, happy to be in his company. He gingerly reached out to Meowstic, and the cat responded unafraid and nudged the hand. "Heh, he seems very comfortable around humans. Maybe it has an owner?" Zachary thought aloud, soon scratching the Meowstic around the ears-- encouraging a happy purr from the cat. [break][break] KKKKRRRACK--POOW!![break][break] The flash and roar of lightning and thunder answered Himari's question. Zachary's Pokemon responded to a series of reactions from scared to mild startled-- especially Dizzy with the sensitive big ears. However-- Greed was already causing trouble as he 'reappeared' besides Himiari, giving a too-many-teeth grin to try and scare her. Him, finding it hilarious. [break][break] "GREED!" Zachary scolded, but only made the ghost laugh more. [break][break] Regardless,it looked like they were stuck here for the night. Zachary turned to the Meowstic. "I hate to impose, but is there any place in this old house where we could rest? Eat? Spend the night?" he asked. [break][break] The meowstic lit up with happiness-- and soon with a bright meow, urged them with a wave of its paw to follow them. [break][break] The cat led the group of both humans and Pokemon down the hall! As they walked, they soon saw other pokemon-- these more dosile it seemed. A Gothita and a Jelly-fish looking one that floated the halls. All the while, the cat wasn't bothered by them. [break][break] "This must be a home for many ghost and psychic Pokemon? At least, those that Meowstic feels can be well behaved here." Zachary asked. Dizzy, by his side gave an unsure murmur , shrugging his shoulders. Zachary turned to the cat, curious. "Is that true, meowstic? Do you let other pokemon wander here?" [break][break] "Mrrreow." the cat replied with a nod, and soon led them to a nearby room. [break][break] Inside was a large dining room, accompanied with a large table, elegant chairs-- though warn, a fire place, and other things. Sadly-- there would not likely be any food there. The house was abandoned-- unless pokemon had berries for them. [break][break] But, Zachary came prepared as he had a series of camping food and rations for him and his pokemon. Easy to travel or heat meals. If he had a working kitchen, he could do much, much more. [break][break] "Not a bad place to rest. Dizzy, can you light a fire in the fireplace?" Zachary asked. [break][break] Dizzy approached the fireplace and drew out his stick-- but soon met with the leer from the Meowstic. Dizzy gave his own leer, but soon as he pointed the stick to the fire place, he gave a sarcastic whimper as if to say 'please'?[break][break] Reluctantly, the cat gave a nod. [break][break] Dizzy soon used his stick and lit with fire. Giving a soft blow and controlled Mystical Fire , the fireplace came to life, illuminating the room and warming it from the cold weather outside. [break][break]
