Excuse me, but does anyone know how to get to the library from Latimir? I heard there is one in this place and I've been meaning to check it out and research more about Fortuna. I wonder if it's anything like Canalav--

[This is when something prompts Cynthia to drop the communicator, accidentally switching modes to Audio. However, all that can be

1/something idk

[allephoria]

Ah, this frequency should be...

Cynthia-san, is that you?

2/something idk

[allephoria]

[After a few minutes of waiting (and coughing)...]

M-Maybe not, I must have made a mistake... no, I'm sure this is it. Cynthia-san, are you there?

3/3 done i guess!

[allephoria]

[After waiting for a pretty long time now and wondering why she's not answering, she realizes that something sounded strange at the end. Cue panic.]

Cynthia-san, are you there?! Are you okay? Please answer!

[battledancers]

[Nope, no Cynthia-san here, sorry. Though, if this is voice? Then let's assume one of her Pokemon got hold of her communicator and hit on reply mode, so Chihiro can hear what everyone is saying.]

[allephoria]

[What are these strange sounds that sound vaguely like animals but not? MORE IMPORTANTLY THOUGH]

K-Kidnapped...? Cynthia-san was?!

[battledancers]

[And let's assume one of them accidentally hit it on video mode amidst all the mess, so suddenly! There's a Garchomp staring at you from the other side of the screen. Hey, she remembers you.]

Gaaar!

[allephoria]

[Here have a frightened girl in response.]

W-What is that?!

[battledancers]

[Baww, you don't remember her. ;; Garchomp was hoping you could help.]

Garchomp, gaaar!

[allephoria]

[She starts flipping through her diary, finally settling on one of the newer pages.]

Are you one of Cynthia-san's pokemon...?

[battledancers]

Gaaaaaar! [The Pokemon lets out a loud growl, spreading her arms wide open in the process. Good, you remember her. Now to get you to understand.]

[allephoria]

Ahh! [Unfortunately the yell just scared her. She's kinda... ducking behind her communicator. As if that will somehow help her.]

[battledancers]

[... okay, Garchomp sees this isn't going to work. So she growls at someone again, and then the next thing you see is a Togekiss coming on the screen. This one is cute. Come see the cute Pokemon flail in despair?]

[allephoria]

[Okay this one looks a lot less scary. Maybe she can actually talk to this one without screaming...]

H-Hello...?

[battledancers]

Kiss! Togetoge-- to! [This is Pokemon talk for "Help! Our trainer is gone!" but Chihiro probably can't figure that out. Oh boy.]

[allephoria]

[As cute as it is, Chihiro just... stares.] What's wrong? Do you know where Cynthia-san is?

[battledancers]

To... [Have a sad shake of head in response, Chihiro.]
