She appeared out of thin air, stepping through a tear in reality as if the very fabric of existence was nothing more than a mild inconvenience.[break][break]
Crystals blossomed around the temporary portal, haloing the young woman in an ethereal blue light: the exact same color as her close-cropped hair. At her shoulder, a shiny Unown-K dutifully floated, its singular eye immediately fixating upon the two figures in front of it: the very people its mistress was hoping to find here, in this verdant sanctuary.[break][break]
"Good afternoon," she greeted them, voice pleasant, as if she hadn't just teleported into private property without warning. Her keen crimson eyes were bright with anticipation, and her expression carried little in the way of an apology; she did not view herself as an intruder, merely a messenger.[break][break]
And, perhaps, a prophet.[break][break]
"The Unown have alerted me to your interest in the DRK Triad," she told them, without a second to waste. "You didn't happen to encounter one of them recently, did you?"

“Prob'bly gonna tackle the museum angle next.” [break][break]

Eddie leaned against the trunk of a weeping willow, absentmindedly tying a viney branch into knots as he turned his gaze from the lake back to the Ranger Captain, [break][break]

“'Cause I can't get that lady ta show back up no matter how many times I run the stupid simulation. Even tried runnin' a few new scenarios just ta shake things up a bit.” [break][break]

He sighed with some frustration, [break][break]

“But I've got nothin'; nada, zip, zilch, absolute squat. You have any better luck?” [break][break]

Before he could properly register Shalin's answer, a new voice rang out softly through the Romping Grounds. [break][break]

Good afternoon. [break][break]

Eddie, startled as he was, loosed a decidedly unmanly yelp, [break][break]

“Arceus, Palkia, and Dialga, lady, where the hell did you come from?!” [break][break]

Wait, a woman appearing out of nowhere, accompanied by Unown and referencing the DRK Triad? Eddie suddenly straightened himself, eyes darting from their new guest to Shalin and back again. After all of his searching, had the Curator finally found him again? [break][break]

No, that couldn't be right. The Curator had different costumes she donned, sure, but none of them bore any similarity to the bluette that had abruptly joined them. There was something different in the way she carried herself, too; the Curator had this sort of flippant smugness to her, from what little Eddie recalled, but something about this young woman seemed a little more pleasant. Strangely earnest, from what his gut told him. [break][break]

Eddie cleared his throat and composed himself as best as he could from his moment of panic, [break][break]

“Maybe,” he admitted, because Eddie knew himself well enough to know he was a God-awful liar, “But who's askin'?”

With a faint, green glow surrounding her, her Beedrill, and her Flygon, a SYGNA SUITED Shalin casually sat on one of Queen Zing's wings, the wasp's blue eyes shifting back and forth between Eddie and the Captain's other Pokémon. "Take me with you," she responded. "I want to get to the bottom of this, too. I've been in the simulation many, many times, and this is my first time experiencing an anomaly like that."

Before the girl could elaborate further, 's sudden entrance spooked Queen Zing, the Shiny Beedrill loudly vibrating her wings. The green hue grew bright in a hurry, the Captain only a streak of light against the insect's flight appendage. The buzzing was so intense that Eddie may have been able to feel its air disturbance if he was fairly close to Shalin. The Beedrill's rear barb poked out a few times, too, showing signs of agitation.

Having not been ready for it, Shalin's numb arms fell completely limp when the Pokémon at last ceased making such grating noise, the girl now clearly visible with a delirious expression on her face. With the way she swayed, Eddie may have been able to conclude she didn't hear Nomi at all.

NOTE: All of Shalin's Pokémon are present somewhere on the vast Romping Grounds.

Wary of the agitated Beedrill, Nomi hung back, waiting for the buzzing to die down before answering the young man's question.[break][break]
"I am the Visionary," she announced, as if that explained everything. Two more Unown popped into existence beside her, as if to emphasize the introduction. "Avatar of the Unown."[break][break]
Upon closer inspection, both people seemed vaguely familiar to Nomi - the woman in particular. A government official, perhaps? Neither were affiliated with Slateport University, as far as she could remember - but that didn't mean she hadn't encountered them on campus in the past. Rangers, for example, were known to make appearances on occasion: for training and educational purposes.[break][break]
Either way, they had likely heard of her, and thanks to , she'd likely need to get ahead of any preconceived assumptions - which would only further delay her.[break][break]
"There are those within the League intent on painting me as some sort of villain, but let me assure you: I am anything but." Her crimson eyes flashed with resolve. "My primary purpose is to find the DRK Triad, and stop them from destroying our world."

Wait, the Visionary? Eddie's eyes narrowed to a glower; this woman was near the top of the HBIC's most wanted list. She was apparently armed and dangerous, a terrorist and a murderer. Just what the hell did she want with them? [break][break]

“Is that right?” [break][break]

Eddie didn't get the worst vibes from this mystery woman, but he'd be damned if he was going to let some Rocket punk pull the wool over his eyes, [break][break]

“How do we know you're not lyin' to us?” [break][break]

His eyes darted from the Unown (the blue one was kinda cute, and the little open part of the K kinda made it look like a Ducklett mid-quack - stop, Eddie, focus) to the woman and over to Shalin. He looked to the Ranger Captain for some guidance; maybe she had some insight that Eddie sorely lacked.

The loud vibrations at last ceased when the woman calmly introduced herself. "It's okay, Queen Zing! She doesn't mean any harm," Shalin tried to assure her Beedrill as she turned toward Eddie. "I think she's telling the truth. That's something I've come to realize, as well: neither the League nor Rocket can be fully trusted." Being a Captain gave her access to files about the Visionary, Shalin having been fed much of the same propaganda as Eddie was. "Let's hear her out," the greenette tried to convince her friend.

As Nomi mentioned the DRK Triad, Shalin attention snapped to her, as well as that of her Beedrill steed she was casually sitting atop. "The DRK Triad, you say?" she asked, genuinely curious. "The two of us ran into them several times inside of the RKS Simulation. We may have a common enemy."

Suspicion warred with acceptance as the two Leaguers discussed Nomi's veracity. She listened patiently, gathering as many details about them as she could. Curiously, it was the Ranger Captain who argued in favor of hearing Nomi out.[break][break]
"You have an open mind," she observed, turning to smile at Shalin. "That's a wise choice. There are many perspectives to a story, many facets to a jewel. And when it comes to Rocket and League, there are extremists on both sides."[break][break]
She waved a hand, and the Unown around her danced about, bobbing and weaving until a new portal appeared in mid-air between Shalin and her companion. It shimmered with blue energy, solidifying like some sort of ethereal projector screen, swirls of amorphous shapes forming into discernible figures.[break][break]
"This is the memory of Kallistatus," she explained, nodding at the shiny Unown-K. "Think of it like a recording." Nisa Holo's face sharpened as she stood over Nomi, glaring daggers. "I, too, was attacked by the DRK Triad inside of an RKS Machine." She paused. "There are two. Rocket and League both have one."[break][break]
The events of her ascension to Avatarship appeared. Holo's insistence on eliminating her and . Isaac and his Pokemon helping Nomi manifest an escape route. Kallistatus betraying its master and joining Nomi. The Rocket Unown coming to her aid and gifting her with Avatarship...it all played out, like a sped-up silent movie.[break][break]
"Isaac Merlo was with me when this happened," she noted. She would not be shocked to learn that they knew him. Everyone seemed to know Isaac. "So he can corroborate that this happened, should you wish to confirm my trustworthiness."[break][break]
The portal imagery froze, once more highlighting Holo.[break][break]
"Was this the woman you two encountered?"

The League, untrustworthy? That was sort of an absurd notion, at least when Eddie considered the alternative of Rocket. But Eddie trusted the Ranger Captain intrinsically; if she said to hear the Visionary out, then Eddie would hear the Visionary out. [break][break]

And, oh boy, did the strange lady have an equally strange tale to tell. Eddie's head snapped to the direction of the dancing Unown and their shimmering portal and watched, awestruck, as it began to play a movie in miniature of the Visionary's ascension, [break][break]

“Huh, little guy's really got an eye for detail, don't he?” [break][break]

But hell, Eddie didn't think he would ever forget his own encounter with the DRK Triad. It was no wonder that the Unown, having parted from the company of avatar-killers, would recall so much detail from such a pivotal moment. [break][break]

When the focus shifted to a while-haired woman and the screen froze on her face like a single still from a film reel, Eddie scrutinized her features and frowned, [break][break]

“Nope,” he replied, scratching his chin and studying the white-haired woman on the screen, “Our gal was different. She was blonde, 'til she wasn't.” [break][break]

He glanced back to the Visionary, and then glanced back again in a quick double-take. Hey, wait, wasn't her hair supposed to be pink, like in the wanted ads? [break][break]

“But that might have somethin' to do with the fact that she claimed to be ex-Triad. It was the weirdest thing; she kept pullin' all'a these costume changes, but it was less like she was changin' her clothes and more like she kept flickerin' in an' out. Like a TV with a bad signal, or somethin'.” [break][break]

Maybe that wasn't the best way of explaining it, but Shalin would probably have better luck articulating the specifics than he had.

"You're absolutely right," Shalin nodded in agreement, able to communicate more clearly now that her entire body wasn't shaking like a jackhammer. "Now I don't have as much experience with them as Champion , but I've heard him rant about so much when he visits my home. It might be worth talking to him about this, too." While she was unsure of how much he had been going into the RKS Simulation, he had a more active role in the League, and had battled the Elite Four several times as part of his Champion Assessment.

The Captain kept her mouth shut as she watched back the recording and how Nomi became an Avatar. Shalin didn't know Isaac as well as her Gym Leader friend did, but he was a very trustworthy person. If Isaac could trust her, so could she.

Shalin, like Eddie, noticed quite a few different features. Every time she wanted to interject, the military agent was a step ahead of her. "I... really don't have anything to add," the flabbergasted Ranger said. "Eddie summed it up nicely."

Different. Nomi blinked. Ex-Triad?[break][break]
"Did she go by any specific name or title?" Her brain whirred with possibilities. "Did she have...Pokemon with her? If she had an Unown, what letter did it represent?"[break][break]
She glanced at Kallistatus. Had it ever encountered this person? It had once been bonded to Holo, so her signature was most familiar to it. The shiny Unown-K stared back, its expression blank. Inside her mind, it hummed to the rhythm of uncertainty.[break][break]
The projected images of the RKS Machine, and her altercation with Holo, disappeared. A blue, crystalline after-image shimmered in its wake.[break][break]
"Every detail matters, so whatever you can remember - please tell me. Even if it seems insignificant."

Eddie frowned, now more preoccupied than ever with dredging up every bit of detail from that day, [break][break]

“Kinda? We've started callin' her the Curator, 'cause she had this real fucked up collection. She had a bunch'a Pokemon frozen in these glass displays, like they were bein' put up in some kinda museum.” [break][break]

The soldier shuddered as he recalled their frozen expressions of anger and terror, frozen into eternity. Those faces were probably going to haunt his nightmares for a little while. He shook his head and continued, [break][break]

“And yeah, she had two'a your little buddies hangin' out with her, at least at first. One'a them looked like a question mark, and the other one like an exclamation mark.” [break][break]

But then a sudden realization dawned on him; Eddie snapped his fingers and suddenly looked at the Visionary with an expression somewhere between surprise and realization, [break][break]

“But her Pokemon changed when she changed, too! She ditched the Unown and got herself a Meloetta, then she ditched the Meloetta and changed inta a Sygna Suit.” [break][break]

It felt like they were really getting to the bottom of something, now, but what?

As Eddie gave his half of the story, Shalin recalled one more strange tidbit about the Curator's Pokémon. "None of the Pokémon she had on her, other than the Unown and Meloetta, were ones I know of. All brand new species," she added, "and ones that looked like they were living out their last moments at that. And her Sygna Suit didn't look nearly as fun as mine. Eddie, I should take you back into the simulation and let you experience my suit for yourself!" For the first time since Nomi had warped in, Shalin had a look of pure mischief on her face.

"The thing that has me most curious is she was somehow syncing with a Meloetta. To my knowledge, that is impossible with our current technology." Had the DRK Triad developed Sygna Suit technology capable of tolerating the high Infinity Energy of a rare and powerful Pokémon?

Meloetta. Nomi wasn't overly familiar with the mythical creature. It had some connection to top champion , she knew, but as far as she was aware, it wasn't an Avatarship bond. Not yet, anyway.[break][break]
Meloetta was a musical Pokemon, capable of producing ethereal songs befitting the divine. It made sense why it would be drawn to Hoenn's most famous pop star. But why would it also be associated with this ex-DRK Triad member? That didn't make much sense at all.[break][break]
"You are correct," Nomi nodded to Shalin. "Current Sygna technology is not capable of channeling the power of mythical and legendary Pokemon. In fact, Sygna Suits negate Avatar powers for reasons we still don't entirely understand, though I can tell you that it has something to do with the nature of Infinity Energy."[break][break]
She shifted, expression equal parts troubled and contemplative.[break][break]
"New species...perhaps they were paradoxes."[break][break]
It would not surprise her to learn that there were more of those. After all, they were the products of human imagination: boundless. Unlimited.[break][break]
"This Collector sounds unpredictable," Nomi decided. "But if she's no longer with the DRK Triad, perhaps she could be swayed to help us against them. Do you think she would appear again, if we went looking for her?"

“Arceus, I wish.” [break][break]

Eddie laughed mirthlessly and rubbed the back of his neck. The whole Sygna Suit thing had sort of gone over his head, but this was at least something he could speak for, [break][break]

“I've been tryin' all kinds'a stuff ta try an' get her ta show back up. Runnin' the same scenarios, runnin' different ones, runnin' stuff with other sorts'a people.” [break][break]

He shook his head and sighed, [break][break]

“I think if there's a way ta get her ta show up, it ain't gonna be in the RKS. At least, not with how the system currently runs. I've got a couple'a other ideas, but – I dunno, maybe the tech ain't there yet?” [break][break]

Because one thing was for certain, at least in Eddie's mind – whoever the Curator was, they had a mastery over the simulation that both the League and Rocket could only dream of achieving. Maybe they'd have a shot of tracking her down if they could catch up to the wild stuff she could pull, but there was no telling when that would be.

At the mention of paradoxes, Shalin instinctively whistled for Midori, her Iron Leaves. She at last slid off her Beedrill's wing when the robotic Sacred Sword arrived, her green glow ceasing and her suit becoming silent again. "Here's the thing, Nomi," Shalin interjected. "I doubt they were paradoxes. All of the ones we've met to far have resembled other species. Midori here is the spitting image of the legendary Pokémon Virizion. My memory of it is a little fuzzy, but the Pokémon in the Curator's possession looked nothing like any of the ones we know. What do you remember, Eddie?"

It sounded like Eddie had been quite busy running simulations. It was fun going in there and getting to see Pokémon and people she otherwise couldn't. "I should take you back in there sometime. You can see me as a Gym Leader, and I've got something special planned: the ability to experience Sygna power for yourself. Since they're such a big investment, it might be a good idea to test drive one; see if it's right for you!"

The Captain's attention turned back to Nomi. "She might be looking for others, too," she suggested. "If I remember, we ran into her by running into multiple DRK Triad members in the same simulation run."
