    Powder cascaded down around Rowan as the Butterfree fled their prison, unwittingly inhaling the substance as he took in their strange appearance. Vision blurred as he choked and coughed on the dust, colors becoming warped and distorted before his eyes. “Yeah, I’ll be fine.” Rowan lied, gripping onto the edge of the waterway to pull himself up onto mostly dry land. “Are you alright?” He asked Adrian Malcolm , having lost track of them for the most part until this point.

    Rowan attempted to scrape some of the powder that clung to his skin away, though that seemed to be a fruitless effort. Everything felt further away than usual, his movements sluggish and delayed while his mind wandered towards arbitrary thought. Jellicent hovered close to Rowan, using their watery fins to Absorb some of the powder into their Cursed Body, having become immune to the substance on first contact. “On second thought…” He leaned against Adrian and took his arm, obviously slightly wobbly and having trouble moving on his own. Rowan had been high before, but this was something else entirely. Imagine what sort of money selling this stuff would make?

    Clinging close to Adrian, he willed them both further into the darkness, wanting to keep exploring despite his diminished capacity.

    “I didn’t know that, actually.” Rowan had never been very invested in sports, but he had a soft spot for Pelipper, especially since he was so close with his own. Amber eyes were averted when the Machamp came into view, finding the wound to still be too fresh for him to handle.

    Luckily, the fighting-type wasn't the focus for long. Michiko drew his attention towards the mascots, as colorful and distracting as they were. “Yeah, wow. That’s a lot of mascots.” He wasn’t expecting them to have a whole backstory, especially with a suspiciously missing wife. “She...disappeared?” Oh yeah, Paul definitely killed her because he was having an affair with Penny.

    “Pappy is pretty great, but I have to say that the name 'Pelli-kun' won me over.” Rowan raised the camera and took a picture of the Pelipper in the dog collar, finding them too hilarious to not be immortalized on film.

”Cadis?” Rowan wasn’t familiar with the name but that didn’t mean they weren’t someone of importance to the organization, perhaps a former leader before Declan Walsh had stepped in. “Sounds like Gavin, I’m not surprised.” Gavin was often sad and smoking, there wasn’t much else he’d seen the Underboss do since they’d become acquainted.

“I only found out he was my brother a few months ago. I was under the impression I was an only child for nineteen years.” A soft sigh escaped his lips, wondering if he would have been better off knowing that the man who abused him wasn’t his father the whole time. “I still don’t know how to treat him, but I suppose getting to know his boyfriend isn’t a bad start.” Amber eyes shifted away from the man, curious but unsure if he should ask the question on his mind. “Are you two considering getting married?”

“I’m proud to announce a new product from the Wrynn Corporation.” Rowan began as he strode onto the stage, his Inteleon following closely behind. “We’ve developed a new unique beverage that can help anyone keep cool on these warm Hoenn days.” He produced a remote from his pocket, clicking one of the buttons to show an image on the screen of the product in question.

“Introducing the Inteleon Blast! A Juice Drink that is made with all natural ingredients and naturally sweetened with sugar. Free of artificial colors, flavors and preservatives for a guilt-free drinking experience.” Rowan felt ridiculous but this was the part he needed to play considering he couldn’t use a move this round to increase his appeal.

“Let Inteleon Blast away your thirst, today!” God he felt cheesy, but he hoped this would appeal to someone out there.

The mist continued to thicken as Rowan pushed further into the phenomenon, disorienting him and obscuring the figure he’d seen before. “Rowan…” A voice whispered out to him from the haze, unknown and yet somehow familiar at the same time. “Who's there?” Cautious steps brought him towards the source of the enigmatic voice, the whimsical pink mist slowly becoming a sinister crimson before his eyes.

Suddenly, Rowan found himself standing before a series of solid pillar-like structures, forming what appeared to be a cage. “Hello?” He called out, taking a step forward to place his hand on the stone, able to hear the sounds of heavy breathing on the other side. “Is someone back there?”

    Crimson eyes appeared in the darkness, hungry and filled with rage. “Let me out, Rowan…” The growling voice was deep, but still unmistakable...this was his own voice. “LET ME OUT!” It commanded with a booming shout, forcing him to quickly step backwards. One foot stepped over the other, causing Rowan to stumble and fall, plummeting down into seemingly infinite darkness below.

    Rowan opened his eyes to find he wasn’t falling anymore. The darkened walls that surrounded him continued to push forward, the room slowly closing in on him until he found himself in an area no bigger than a small closet. “Rowan, you’ve been misbehaving again.” A voice he recognized this time, his father’s. “Please, I promise I’ll be good! Don’t lock me in here!” Another voice, his own again but younger. “Please, father! I’m scared!”

    A door opened before him, light flooding the darkened room and temporarily blinding Rowan. “Hello?” There was a shape in the door, much taller than himself. The figure extended their hand into the darkness, and Rowan reached his own outwards. A warm hand clasped his own, slippery with some substance, dripping down his wrist. Soon, the disorientation faded away and Rowan found he was face to face with himself.

    Bodies were strewn across the room, blood splattered and gore exposed in a sickening scene. The other Rowan clutched a knife in his hand, a smile across his lips with flecks of blood clinging to his face. “This is what you really are, Rowan.” The doppelganger stepped around the room, kicking over one of the bodies to show the bloodied face of Cillian Quinn .

    “No...I couldn’t do something like this…” Rowan stepped backwards, nearly tripping over another body, the mutilated corpse of THEO BECKETT staring up at him with vacant eyes. “Stop lying to yourself.” Frightened, he searched the room for an exit, only to see Melody Miro slumped over against the wall, her throat sliced from one end to another. “I’m not you!”

    The doppelganger rushed forward and grabbed Rowan by the throat, pressing him up against the wall. “I’m what you need to be if you want to survive!” A sharp pain radiated from his gut, looking down to see the knife plunged into his own stomach. “LET ME OUT!” The voice shouted again, shaking the walls of the room and once more plunging him into darkness.

    Rowan chewed his bottom lip as he watched himself and Natasha slip out of the lead, crossing one arm over the other. “We’re going for the big guns this round.” He murmured to the Inteleon, a small smirk crawling over her lips with anticipation. Once more the two of them took the spotlight, though Rowan remained a healthy distance away from his Pokémon to give them space to work. “Ready whenever you are, Natasha.”

    She nodded, creating a shimmering barrier of light in the air with the nonchalant wave of a hand before setting herself in place. One hand gripped the wrist of the other, which had already been formed into the signature finger-gun, energy beginning to gather on the tip in the form of a sphere. Lights dimmed around the room as Natasha gathered the ambient energy onto the tip of her finger, attempting not to seem strained despite the awesome power at her fingertips.

    “Now.” The Inteleon aimed and fired at the wall of light, unleashing a mighty Hyper Beam that crashed through and shattered the barrier into glass-like shards, sparkling underneath the spotlight before crashing down harmlessly onto the stage all around her. Natasha offered the audience an ironic curtsy before stepping back into her position, huffing slightly with weariness once she wasn’t in view.

“Am I seeing things or is that an Unown?” Rowan sat up with curiosity, making sure that this wasn’t some mirage among the stars. “Oh, shit.” He fumbled with the Pokéballs in his belongings, recognizing that Adrian was busy with the Slowbro for the moment. “Mistral, a little help?” The Prinplup let out a small yawn and pushed themselves up from the grass, opening their beak again only to let loose a stream of Bubble Beam towards the Unown.

Assaulted with bubbles, the Unown was distracted enough for Rowan to see the opportunity to catch the Pokémon, throwing one of the empty Pokéballs in their direction. He’d have the Unown Device ready in case the Pokémon attempted to flee, scanning the letter into the enigmatic database.

    “I’ll catch up with you.” Rowan nodded in response to Adrian Malcolm , scooping up the Pyukumuku into his arms with a defeated sigh. Others had their Pokémon fainted, but he couldn’t bear to see one of his own suffer when there was something he could do to remedy the pain. “Don’t worry, Spike. Everything will be okay.” A hand slipped into the first-aid kit and produced the Revive he’d been gifted from Bill Anderson , applying the medicine with care to the Pyukumuku away from prying eyes.

    It didn’t take long for Spike to respond, nuzzling affectionately into Rowan’s arms with renewed energy. “Welcome back, mate.” A soft smile came across his lips, slipping the Pyukumuku into the hood of his jacket where they’d be safe for the time being. Standing up, Rowan made his way towards the waterways where Adrian and a few others had chosen their path. “Come on out, King.” The Jellicent appears in a flash of light from their capsule, swirling through the air for a moment before dropping into the water.

    Rowan dove in after the Pokémon, slipping beneath the surface into a more familiar aquatic territory. This was far from the clear and crystalline waters that he was used to swimming in; these canals were slick with grime and algae, obviously having been untouched for years. He breached the surface where the others had stopped, before a monolithic door that imposed it’s unyielding will upon them. “Well that’s unfortunate.”

    A gesture was given towards the Jellicent, indicating an attack should be made on one of the locks. An orb of darkness coalesced before King, launching a Shadow Ball at the targeted lock with the intention of breaking the seal. “We sure we want in here? Seems ominous as hell.”
