Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dan descended the steps and went to the computer. He rearranged his team and then logged off. Now all there one thing left...find Sub! Peering into the kitchen, he saw Terashi looking a bit ill. Well he did get pretty banged up in the last mission. "Hey Terashi. I suppose you haven't seen the boss man?"

The trainer grinned as he reached into his bag, looking for something. What pulled out looked like a bunch of orange blocks stuck together. It was a little dusty but that was only because it was dug up. "This is a Protector. Sub told me they help Rhydon evolve. Problem is, I don't know how it works" he explained.

"Oh, I see what you're getting at," I said as I stood up. "First off, have your Rhydon hold the Protector. That's a crucial component to it's next phase of evolution. Mind you, the device itself will only activate once ownership of the Rhydon holding the Protector is altered. In layman's terms, give the Protector to Rhydon and trade him with someone who will be willing to trade him back to you after he's evolved."

Suddenly, headache everywhere. Funny how talking about pokemon evolution made me forget about for those few precious seconds.

Once my headache cooled down, I fed myself and my pokemon, then moved to the main area to relax a bit. I had started to doze off, actually, but caught myself when something started ringing.

I rummaged through my pockets and found my Crosstransceiver, the source of the ringing. Guess who was on the other line.

"Oh, hey, Limitbreaker," I said when I recognized the face on the device.

He wasn't as happy to see me, though. "Toumei. I got something to ask you."

"Yeah, what's up?" I asked, curious about this sudden conversation.

"When I heard about the hospital shipment from Goldenrod getting jacked, I looked into it. Care to tell me what you were doing there?"

"Whoa, whoa, slow down," I nearly shouted. It's not that he was talking fast or anything, though. "What do you mean, looked into it?"

"You're aware of my methods. You let yourself be seen by security cameras. I thought you were gymming it up in Unova. Why the sudden interest in injured Pokemon?"

"Look, it's not what you think. I was trying to stop a group of people known as-"

"The Pyre Cult." Limitbreaker interrupted.

"You know about them?" I asked.

It would be my luck that Chaos would show up at this point. "Yo, JT. The ~/~ have you been?"

"Chaos?" 'JT' asked with a bewildered look on his face. "Where exactly are you, Toumei!?"

"Headquarters," Chaos scoffed. "Where else?"

"So, you've joined THAT team," JT said calmly. "Makes things easier, I guess.

"Wait, just wait," I butt in. "How do you two know each other!?"

"Chaos can fill you in later, Toumei. You've got bigger problems right now. I've found out that the Pyre Cult are attacking the Lighthouse in Olivine as we speak. The Olivine City Police Department is trying to keep the media out of the situation, but-

"Thanks, Limitbreaker," I said as I turned off my crosstransciever. I immediately sent a message out to as many people in Team Snagem that I knew before contacting GRAY. "I need a ride to Olivine City right away!"

"Then I suggest you call a cab," GRAY retorted.

"Please don't start with that," I grumbled.

"Do take a joke once in a while," GRAY chuckled before Claydol appeared. Chaos grabbed onto my shoulder for some ungodly reason when I reached for Claydol. We both disappeared into the blue field of Claydol's Teleport.

Rain and Nova were in the middle of their sparring match, exchanging Arm Thrust and Razor Shell attacks. Meanwhile, Electra was helping Azalea train in a safe and orderly manner. It was more like dancing if anyone were watching. Dan's gaze would shift from Electra and Azalea to Rain and Nova instructing the two pairs with their training. "Good, remember to keep your guard up Rain. Nova don't just use defense, offense too!"

Suddenly, his SNAG would go off, a message from Terashi. After reading it, Dan rallied up his pokemon and ended the training session. "Everyone did a great job, keep up the great work" he praises them as he returned all but Electra. Sending out Diva, he was teleported to Olivine.

Sub sat down in the main area of HQ, most of everyone else was gone it seemed like and he didn't know why, all he knew is some crazy person was running around the place.
