Long ago, there was an island, called Coren. It flourished with life, human and pokemon. It was home to the series of contests, called the Coral Contests. Many travelers loved the island. After a long history of being an amazing island, the island disappeared. No one knows where it is or what happened to it. Many years past, a young girl, named Cora was born. Her father was a sailor, so she grew upon the water. On the eve of her birthday, they were sailing. A faint island could be made out in the mist. It was the island of Coren. And just like that, it became busy again. The island's elders were worried. They had heard whisperings of terrible things happening. An evil force is growing in the heart of the island. Your job, is to stop it. Before it's too late.



Megami checked the time. The tourists would be here soon. She left her house and started towards the docks. She would be ready when they came. Megami Okurito wasn't going to be late. Even if there was no set time to arrive. She passed many people. The warm Corenian sun shone high in the sky, but it was going to set soon. With a glance sideways, Megami slips into the black market. She uses her shortcut and nods at a few shopkeepers. Within minutes, she had arrived.

Kameron had other ideas. She wasn't THAT interested in meeting the tourists, but she knew Megami would kill her if she didn't show up. She casually slips a hoodie on, and pulls the hood up. She makes her way towards the docks, but chooses to take the long route. Late? She could deal with that. Not showing up? Well, Megami isn't the most merciful person when she's angry.

Amari had awoken as bright light from the sun filtered into her room. Squinting her eyes she rolled over, looking at the clock on her wall. She had drifted off to sleep unintentionally once more, she would have to get ready really quickly if she didn't want to be late. Rolling out of her bed she darted to the bathroom, her still tired limbs seemingly forgotten as she moved with haste. Grabbing a brush she ran it through her hair, taming the wild strands that had shifted in her rest. Running a hand down her clothes she quickly smoothed them out before jogging to the door. Slipping on her red jacket she left her home, making her way to the docks. Her feet pounded against the ground as she ran, huffing and puffing as she wove in between people. Finally she skid to a stop at the docks. She noticed Megami was there as well and she gave a small wave in acknowledgment.

Oliver stared out at the water, a strong neutral expression having fallen onto his face. At first he had been a little excited to have been on a boat but the excitement soon faded when he realised what he was in for. After a while it was just the same thing. Water. At first he had tried to take a nap but unfortunately he was unsuccessful in that manner. Now, Oliver had just let himself drift into his own daydreams as he stared blankly at the water, shifting and slapping against the boat in a repeating motion. His chin was rested on the rail, and he could still feel the cool metal pressing against his jaw, his hands were clasped around one of the lower bars of the rail, though it wasn't as cool as the aforementioned. He'd fall asleep here if he could. Yet despite everything it seemed that even keeping himself awake for absolutely longer than healthy, it seemed he just couldn't rest. Giving a small sigh he shut his eyes, listening to the waves below. He'd have to settle.

Emerald leaned towards the water, looking at the Pokémon underneath. “That’s a man time, and that’s a lanturn, and alolamola... these waters are quite beautiful, don’t you agree?” She said to nobody in particular.
(Unnecessary description of her shirt. It’s blue with white comfey shilloetes and is tucked into her jeans like that one aunt who lives out of state)

Megami nodded to Amari, but showed no other sign that she had seen the girl. "At least someone else appreciates and comes on time." she muttered. Thinking of Kameron, she turns around and decides to find her friend. Just at the edge of her vision, Kameron Eskander comes into view. The young magician saunters down the road at a leisurely pace.


"Megami, Amari." Kameron says, nodding to the girls, grinning at Megami's tense and obviously frustrated face. Kameron was the exact opposite of Megami. Kameron, while very skilled in battle, didn't battle very often. She was more laid back, Megami was always tense, like she was expected to be attacked at any moment.

Sky looks at the island of coren as he steps off of the ship he arrived on.
"no turning back now..." he mutters to himself, putting the hood of his black hoodie
over his face. many people had heard of team rocket, and people realizing that HE
used to be one of their admins would ruin his so called 'fresh start'. Sky then takes
his first step onto the island of Coren as he says "no going back now..."
out of the corner of his eye, he sees megami.

Megami takes a deep breath. She smiles an obviously fake smile at Sky. "Welcome to the island!" she was still obviously frustrated at Kameron. Kameron just smirks and nods at Sky.


Melodine was still in her room on the ship, not daring to show her face. She knew people would recognize her, and she knew she wasn't in the mood for fans.

---

Sky looks at Megami and says to her "looks like that makes TWO of us that don't want us being here..."
he then just walks off to find something to eat, not really caring about what anyone thinks about him on Coren.
"wonder if they have malasadas..." he says, looking around, ingnoring the dirty looks everybody is giving him.

"Hi there!" a young girl waves at Sky. She seems to be standing at a shop. She has big brown eyes and short blonde hair. She has a bounce in her step and seems very energetic. "Are you looking for anything?"

As Aesira boarded off the ship, the cool breeze hits her and the salty smell of the ocean and sunshine gave her a warm welcome. She hadn't planned to take a vacation on an island, it was her parents who suggested she needed time off work (and they were probably right as the dark spots under her eyes were pretty obvious) and had sent her off to a foreign place she had never known of before. Oh well, she had to admit, it was kind of nice to be out of the office away from the computer screen and heaps of papers. She walked around for a bit, hoping she could find someone to talk to, and maybe keep her from getting lost again.

---

"is there a malasada shop in coren?" sky asks the little girl.
in its pokeball, his salamence is rocking around, obviously
wanting some fresh air. he feels bad for salamence, as it hasn't
had any time to breath in the fresh air of Coren since they arrived.
Sky decides that he'll get some food for him and salamence, then they
could be in their way of finding an apartment for him to rent.

"Yes sir!' the little girl seemed excited to be useful. "Follow me!" she took off skipping down the road.


Megami sighs. "Kameron, go introduce yourself to that girl and give her a tour." she says, gesturing at Aesira.

---

Aesira reached for the bottle in her bag and took occasional sips of her drink. She never goes anywhere without her favourite drink really, she brought more in her bag and it probably took up more space than her clothes. It's surprising how she could fit everything in a small bag. She looked up from the ground, which previously she was adoring the scattered seashells, and saw someone approaching her. She didn't know what to do, she is very awkward around new people as she spends her time locked up in an office with only the company of her phone, so she just smiled at the woman.

Sky follows the young girl, with salamence shaking uncontrollably in it's pokeball.
"soon, buddy..." Sky says to salamence in an unaudible whisper. salamence's shaking
ceases as Sky follows the young girl

Kameron shrugs at Megami and goes over to Aesira. "Hi. My name is Kameron Eskander. What's yours?" she asks, extending her hand in greeting.

Amari watched as people came off the boat, her eyes darting between each person. There were all kinds of new people to take in, and while she knew it wasn't possible she did her best to memorize every face. She didn't want to embarrass herself by forgetting their name during conversation. She turned to Megami who seemed to be taking charge. "Who should I take?" Her hands had found their way to her pockets, now resting inside with the exception of her thumbs which where resting just outside.

Oliver opened his eyes as he heard footsteps across the deck. The boat seemed to have stopped moving, though waves were still sloshing against the side of the boat. Slowly getting up from his spot he gave a slight grimace as his back cracked. Apparently he had been sitting there longer than he thought. Taking a second to run at his eye, he looked around the deck. People were leaving one by one, and he joined in with a rather slow pace. While he had a long stride he took his time walking, often leaving others annoyed. Finally he set his foot on the docks, looking at the small group of natives gathered. He tilted his head but didn't say anything.

---

Aesira shook the hand, she was used to shaking hands billions of times so she was used to it. "Nice to meet you, I'm Aesira," she said, it sounded a little too formal though. Why can't she act casual for just a second??? Being cooped up in the business world must have that much effect on her.

A good distance from the ship, a Mantine cut through the water. It skimmed over the surface for a few seconds, then launched into the air, gaining more speed as it dived back down. Saphi clung tightly to the straps across its back, leaning down so that the Mantine could swim unimpeded.

"Bloody Elm, that idiot. Only deciding to tell me about this trip five minutes before the ship leaves, and I'm all the way across the region!" Saphi muttered in annoyance.

Soon, the island came into view. The cruise ship was docked already, but it seemed that they hadn't begun disembarking yet.

Saphi squinted into the distance, spotted the island, then let out a loud whoop. "WOOOOO!!! FINALLY! I can get you two some proper rest!"

After a few more minutes, she pulled up alongside the ship. She carefully opened up her waterproof bag, and grabbed some rope that was knotted at regular intervals. She released Lanturn, and jumped onto it while Mantine flew up holding one end of the rope. After confirmation that the rope was tied, she returned Lanturn and began to scale the side of the ship.

She heaved herself over the railing, and tumbled onto the deck beside Emerald, soaked and tired. She rolled up, then stretched a bit while greeting Emerald.

"Good day to ya. Don't mind me, just missed my ride." Then she pulled up her rope, and started to walk away, Mantine trailing behind her.

Megami sounded distracted. "Amari, would you mind looking for a girl named Melodine? She supposed to be still on the ship. Ms. Cerilov has arrangements I need to take care of before she arrives." Megami scowls at the ground for a moment before continuing. "Thank you."

Melodine slowly ventured out of her cabin, still careful about her face.

Kameron grins. Kameron's eyes glittered with amusement, as if she could hear the thoughts in Aesira's head. "Welcome, I'm sure Megami would want me to give you a very long and boring tour but I don't feel like doing that so I'm just going to take you to the important places." she says casually.

---

"Right." Amari said with a nod before making her way up the ship. She paused for a brief moment, almost trapped in her brief thought. She didn't really know what Melodine looked like. She figured she could just look for someone who fit the name. Though the ship seemed mostly empty at this point, it would likely be easy. Spotting someone exit a cabin almost hesitantly, Amari beelined towards the girl. "Uhm, hello. I'm looking for Melodine, are you by any chance her?" She asked, hands still in her pockets.

-

Oliver quickly sidestepped the people still on the dock, making his way into the town. He didn't really know where anything was, but he'd figure it out surely. Tired eyes glanced from building to building, he felt a small feeling of amazement. It was all rather beautiful. Reaching for one of his pokeballs Oliver paused with a small frown. That's right. He left Banette and his team back at Unova. With a small sigh he ran a hand up his face and through his hair before continuing his slow walk. Maybe he could manage to get one of his pokemon over here? Closing his eyes he gave a small nod. He could try. Turning back to his sightseeing, Oliver did his best to keep his thoughts away from his absent team.

---

Melodine started, and checked her hood to make sure it was still covering her hair. "Oh um.... yes." she seemed very worried about something. "And you might be?" she asked quietly, keeping one hand on her hood. She gave the girl a reluctant smile.


(Okay just a note: Melodine is a "famous" singer, so she's trying to keep her identity a secret. She sings many of the songs that a hits while this RP takes place)
