Nova nodded. "Yeah, thats the one!" She happily ran over, and began
scanning the shelves for the pecha berry plush in question. Nova
spotted it and grabbed it, before running the plushie over to the
counter to pay, all the while smiling at Kiwi.
[Jericho]
Connor reached the town hall, and an Audino was looking over
Jericho's injuries, which, thankfully, weren't too bad. "Just some
scratches," The audino said, while applying some ointment. "They'll
be better in no time!" Connor watched thoughtfully. "Why the long
face, kiddo?" He asked Jericho, noticing that he looked a little
blue (figuratively, but literally too I guess, as Jericho was quite
blue already).
Kiwi left the store with Nova carrying the plush after they
finished paying. "Hmm...Nova, do you think we should check up on
that crogunk now?" After buying the kid the gift, Kiwi had no other
plans other than to just continue walking until something caught
her eye, like she usually did. However, with Nova along Kiwi didn't
want to risk boring her. Also, the crogunk might have been hurt a
little badly after being attacked by an entire gang of purrloin.
Jericho looked up at Connor. He gave a small shrug. "I wanted to
stop Daren and his gang from defacing the mural, but I ended up
needing help. I guess I wasn't too helpful..."
[Kiwi]
"Hmm?" Nova looked at Kiwi. "Oh, sure!" Her tail wagged and there
was a little bounce in her step; Nova was clearly happy and
thankful for the plush. "I hope he's doing okay... Connor was
taking him to the town hall, I think..." She said thoughtfully, and
turned back to Kiwi for reassurance.
[Jericho]
"Well, you tried," Connor pointed out. "And that's the first step,
no? We all start off not very strong at first... I remember my
first big adventure, back when I was a lillipup full of energy and
boldness... the only useful thing I did was roll down a hill and
accidentally find a cave!" He laughed. "But I'm getting off topic.
Trying is the first step, and you did it well! Now you just need a
little practice! And don't feel bad about others helping you,
that's what friends and teams are for! Everyone needs a little help
once in a while."
Summer flew off towards where Phoios lived. She wanted to ask about
her dream. She knocked on the door cautiously, knowing Phoios could
be in a vision and not hear her if she just barged in. “Phoios? I
want to ask you something.” She called out. ((I’m assuming Phoios
works from home))

"Let's check." Kiwi began walking to the hospital she'd seen the
stoutland running towards. Not that she had any experience with
healing, she'd usually let Buttercup or Dandelion(Mostly Buttercup)
handle that, but since taking care of Nova, all of the team had
taken a sort of parental role in raising the Eevee. Maybe that
motherly instinct was what was kicking in just now.
"Oh, hmm?" Phoios opened the door. She seemed to be chilling at
home, with some tea and nice smelling candles and such, but she
seemed agitated. "Did you need anything, Summer?" She asked,
somewhat nervously. "Oh, a question? Ask away," Phoios gave a shy
smile.
Jericho was actually being healed at the town hall. Connor was
watching over him, and an Audino had just left the scene. "There, I
think," Nova pointed towards the town hall, her tail still wagging
cheerfully.
Kiwi nodded. "Right." She headed towards the town hall, catching
sight of the Audino leaving. She quietly approacched the spot where
the Stoutland and Crogunk seemed to be talking. She attempted to
politely announce her appearance.
“I had a weird dream last night. I remember standing in the middle
of a ring of fire. Rain was falling around me, but the fire
evaporated it instantly. Fog was covering the ground. Then I
suddenly heard something yelling, something about getting revenge
and ‘free me, and you will be spared’.” Summer recalled. “I’m not
sure if it was a nightmare or prophetic... Do you have any insight
into this?”

Connor noticed Kiwi. "Ah, it was Kiwi, was it? i'm afraid I've been
getting worse with names in my old age... did you want to check up
on Jericho here?" He asked. "He's okay, just has a couple scratched
that Freya over there just put some ointment on," He gestures
towards the Audino from earler.
Phoios tensed. "... why don't you come inside? We can discuss it
over tea..." She opened her door. The house indeed smelled like
tea, many different blends. There were scented candles all around
the room, and on her couch lay a messy blanket. It was clear that
she had been intending to relax herself. Phoios used her psychic
abilities to pour Summer a cup of herbal tea (chamomile,
perhaps?"), but even her telekinetic grip was shaky. Phoios sat at
the table, and gestured for Summer to sit as well.
"I haven't exactly forgotten what being part of a rescue team is
like." Kiwi approached closer now that she'd been acknowledged. She
hadn't exactly retired from the Guild, rather she was less active
nowadays, less of a fighter as she'd tried to focus more on
enjoying her life instead of saving others, hence why Nova was
still treated like an apprentice.
Summer moved into a sort-of-sitting position. Her body was quite
large and made more for perching than sitting. She ended up curling
her tail in to lean against the chair. Using a leg to pick up the
tea, she sipped it and smiled. Phoios made great tea. Too bad her
body shape made it a bit hard to drink anything and she had to
twist awkwardly to put the cup to her mouth.

much)
"So... I've been having a lot of bad visions lately..." Phoios
looked a little uncomfortable. She sipped her tea. "Can you tell me
about your dreams? I hope its not..." She looked down at her tea,
and took another hearty sip.
“Well, I’ve already said all I remembered.” Summer said, finally
finding an acceptable position in coiling herself up. “Just... The
rain, the fire around me evaporating it, and the voice yelling
about freeing it and sparing whoever does. I don’t remember
anything more specific, sorry.” She didn’t have a good memory when
it came to dreams. She eyed Phoios curiously, wondering if she knew
anything.

"You were part of a rescue team?" Jericho asked, his voice filled
with awe. "What was that like?" He was practically brimming with
questions, but he could only ask those two. Besides, he didn't want
to overwhelm Kiwi.
"Well..." Phoios began. "In a lot of my visions, its been... sort
of an apocalypse, i guess... pokemon dying, earthquakes,
tsunamis... and a giant, roaring figure... which I think is, you
know," She paused. Everyone knew about the history of the town and
the battle with girantina. Phoios didn't elaborate too much. "It's
times like this when I wish I wasn't a Xatu... I don't really see
how the storm in your dream could mean much about this... but the
voice... was it low and booming? And seem to come from all around?"
She looked like she hoped the answer was no.
Sunmer frowned and slowly nodded. “From what I recall, yeah.” She
wasn’t sure if her memory was correct, but if she was right,
everyone was in trouble. She shivered slightly.

"Oh no...." Phoios looks down again. "I hope it's a coincidence...
but in my visions... thats the voice of girantina." She pauses, and
lets that sink in. "If he's already whispering to others in their
dreams... that could be bad... he might be regaining his strength
and escape..." She looks super stressed. "Connor suggested we
discuss this at the meeting...." Phoios takes a large swig of tea,
like in effort to relax, but to no avail.
