-f I press this? Ah. I think that means it's on.

[Suddenly your PokeGear's screen is filled with a smiling woman's face. She looks young, only around her mid twenties, despite her gray hair. And she seems most unaffected by being kicked out into a snowy wilderness by a woman who is most definitely not her mother.]Hello. I am not quite sure where I

[ Rise hears the mention of Inaba before she actually looks at the screen, and that's what gets her to glance over. ]

You're from--

[restardom]

[ AND THEN SHE FREEZES UP.

Oh god.

OH GOD WHAT IS THIS DIDN'T WE BEAT YOU OH GOOOOOOOOD. And, for just a minute, Rise doesn't breathe. She doesn't want to remember the last time they crossed paths, because then she has to remember just how painful it was, what she had to witness, how she-- ]

[restardom]

[ ... right, breathing. She exhales-- HARD. And then, softly, warily ]

Izanami...?

[video] hurr this isn't a day late nope

[handtouching]

[Another one from that boy's group. This is getting quite tedious dealing with them every time one of them shows up.]

Yes?

[video] I saw nothing

[restardom]

[ TOO BAD THERE ARE SEVEN OF US, MOMMY JAPAN. ]

... We've-- already settled things, right?

[ or so she's hoping. Izanami isn't entirely bad, and she realizes this, but old memories die hard. Nonetheless, Rise's trying. ]

[video] just as planned

[handtouching]

I do believe I remember my promise.

[really. does she just have to draw a sign that says "I will not try to encase humanity in fog again. Sorry." to hold up whenever one of you shows up?

Because that would just be silly.]

[video] you so sly

[restardom]

[ but oh so helpful. ]

Oh-- um, sorry. It's just that sometimes people show up from different times, so...

[video]

[handtouching]

[she refuses. you will just have to learn for yourselves.

that raises an eyebrow though.]

Oh? Very nteresting.

What else do you know of this world, girl?

[video]

[restardom]

[ THAT I NEVER WANTED YOU TO BE HERE. ]

No one's got powers here, and everyone starts off with a Pokémon-- it's kind of like a little animal that'll fight for you. If you look around for a red-and-white ball, it should be in there.

[handtouching]

[going to ignore the lost powers thing. it obviously can't pertain to Izanami, she's a God and all. Yeah.

But what is this pokemon? Just going to peak into her bag and she spies the small red and white ball.

she picks it up and inspects it. it doesn't seem to be moving like an animal is in there...]

It must be a very small animal.

[video]

[restardom]

Press the button.

[video]

[handtouching]

Oh.

[And she does.

And a Koffing is beamed into existence before them. It smokes and smiles happily, just as a Koffing should.]

It is strange.

[video]

[restardom]

...

Thaaaat's a new one.

[ good lord what is it. ]

[video]

[handtouching]

['Koooooofffingggg'

It looks so happy to see you, Rise-chan.]

Ah. Then you will not be able to shed anymore light on this matter, I take it?

[this not knowing everything business is getting old fast.]

[video]

[restardom]

I've been here for seven months. I can tell you that pointing your-- what you're talking to me with... at that thing will tell you what it is, but if you want to know what we're doing here and how we get back, no one knows.

[ please stop smoking, Koffing. ]

[video]

[handtouching]

[H-He's got the smoking under control, man. He doesn't need another one of those interventions- Wait. It's just a part of his body. Deal with it.]

Thank you.

[Well, at least this wasn't a complete waste of time.]
