Decade and a Half

[Leo Lockward]

LEO XANDER LOCKWARD Looking down at the young Axew that had recently joined his little family of pokemon, Leo observed the little Shulian form dragon type running around chasing Chespy, excitedly playing a game of tag. "Angel" - the teen had named the dragon type. It was the same nickname he gave to Akira, their meeting being one of Leo's favourite memories in the short time he had been on his journey. Sure, it came with a large degree of difficulty but he hadn't felt that safe since. He was a lover dragon types, so it felt only fitting that he name the pokemon after the person and memory he currently treasured most. He thought back to that day in the zoo, it was just Leo and Ember back then. He wanted to have a bit of down time and let Ember meet all of the pokemon that inhabited the zoo. All was fine, and then he met him. Ember got to have fun with her new friends and Leo was taken on a tour of the zoo that turned in to so much more. The teen sighed slightly, if things were slightly different, it may not be so difficult. Sure he regretted the hurt that followed their "situation", and definitely didn't enjoy the fallout, however in that moment, Leo could say he was truly happy. He smiled softly as he looked to his pokemon one more time. "Angel, Chespy.... Let's get going!" WORDS 236 || TAGS N/A APP || PC || PLOTTER

Danny liked Tarragon. Meeting his starter was one of his favorite memories. Tarragon was so full of energy and so proud of himself and his battling ability, it was hard not to become enthusiastic with the grass type. Danny remembered the meeting like it was yesterday: Oakley had met him at the Pokemon Lab in Seabreeze Village. It had been awesome, meeting another gijinka so early into his Pokemon Journey.

The other gijinka had been nice, and the wartortle that had accompanied him had been funny. They had made their way into the back of the Pokemon Lab, where three pens were each set up for a different type: water, fire, and grass. In the grass pen, a Turtwig came rushing forward, rearing his head up dramatically and greeting them with an enthusiastic, <Hiiiii!> It had been Tarragon, and Danny knew that Tarragon and him would get along just fine.

"Hi, I'm Danny, your new trainer," he had introduced himself, and Tarragon had run over to him and rubbed against his legs happily.

<Hiiii I'm Tarragon! I'm gonna be your strongest pokemon, you'll see!> Tarragon had said boastfully.

"I'm sure you will be," Danny had laughed, and from then on, the two were inseparable.

Lavender saw the Plaque, and read it. "What does shula mean to me huh? Well.. there are a lot of things.." she said before thinking back, to her fondest memory which was over the last holiday when she met Bii. A new ranger with a Scatterbug and a shinx who she really got on well with. She Looked at the umbreon doll she had gotten from that encounter as she smiled. She wondered what Bii was up to since the last time they had seen one another. After all she never did get to battle the shinx yet, but maybe they would meet again one day. Lavender let a smile come to her face remembering the first friend she ever made, and the first time she felt truly happy. Her Delcatty also remembered that day, and how Claressa The woobat had battled the woman's scatterbug. That battle was exciting to watch, even though Chrissy had again done her annoying cheer routine. Billy meanwhile didn't know what they were reminiscing on and his favorite memory was meeting Akira and Kaisa just recently. However, all of them had had memorable events in Shula, and they were sure there were many more beautiful memories to come. After all.. this was the land of opportunity, and he and his Trainer as well as the rest of his Pokepals would seize ever little bit of it.

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

Thorn was relaxing in his quarters.   It had been a rough day and he was using the time to unwind and let the stresses of being a criminal mastermind.  Most of his Pokemon were already resting as he reflected upon the room.  It was splendidly decorated, and made Thorn realize just how far he’d come since leaving Kanto.  He shivered, but not because of nostalgia.  Shiva had curled up against him on the armchair like a sleeping child, her frozen aura reducing the temperatures to an annoying level. 

In fact, the only movement in the room was Diabolos in front of the mirror, whistling along with the speakers trying to learn a new tune.  These two in particular brought back a memory of his bursting onto the contest scene here in Shula.  Despite all the adventures he had here so far, that thought never escaped him.  The screams of the crowd and raucous applause had rained down on them that day.  Shiva had put on a near perfect appeal and Diabolos had classily out-battled a Swellow, both pushing their creative limits and earning them the blue ribbon.  Thorn always publicly said that the coordinator business of Remy Dupris was merely a cover, but the truth was that he loved crushing his competition there just as much as crushing the law or the Crystals. 

He continued to look around the room.  Odin was asleep on his perch high above the wardrobe.  Sophia was napping on the pillow of the bed.  Fenrir and Ifrit were passed out snoring on the floor with an empty bottle of liquor between them.  Shemhazai was nearby the drunkards, nestled in a half-eaten poffin.  Even Alexander was in stand-by mode in the far corner. Thorn sometimes wondered what would have happened had he never joined Team Rocket, but rarely did he let those thoughts take root.  He was a criminal…a thief… a killer.  He was working hard to ensure a new world order.  But maybe tonight, just for tonight, he was an ordinary trainer spending some time with his Pokemon.  He let Diabolos’ hypnotic tones send him into slumber as well.  Only for tonight…

[Ezra D'Lange]

Given everything he's been planning to do on this beautiful day, Ezra D'Lange could feel the way the sun beats down on him and his pokemon as a nostalgic memory of home. Slateport had always been his first home, but now as he's standing next to a fountain with Seafoam whining from next to his spot, he's starting to realize that he's got a better home here. In Shula, he's spent so much time exploring and learning about the region itself. The attachment so many trainers have to their pokemon have been interesting to learn about from up close and at a distance. The only thing is he's never really had a whole lot of interaction; he's been too busy getting lost in the grasslands or woods, but Seafoam's rivalry with a certain colorful Zigzagoon. He's laughing as he thinks back on it as he talks to Seafoam in the fountain.

"Why does Frosting get under your skin?" The little shulian horsea just blows bubbles at him angrily. There's a moment of calm before she starts to circle around the fountain speaking out in the heavy bubbling sound. <"Don't even get me started on her!"> Another laugh leaves his throat as he continues. "Oh come on, you're like two peas in a pod!" Seafoam seems to get more offended as she now squirts some water at him in annoyance. Ezra laughs as he splashes back at her, but Seafoam doesn't even flinch as she continues. <"Don't you ever compare me to her like that! She's just a mangy mutt who's so fair beneath me it's not even funny!"> It's gotten her riled up that Ezra can only laugh as the sun continues to shine down on them.

"Doesn't the sun make you just love Shula? I love it here. So many interesting people to meet." His mind jumps back to his meeting with a certain busker alongside a river. There's always a bit of a chaos to his introductions to others, but that one had been surprisingly calm. Ezra could still remember the way he laughed at Kauri's dancing by the fire. There had been a lovely energy that the two of them had been taken to. Shula really was a wonderful new home to him. Ezra couldn't wait to see where the next few months will take him.

"Ezra" <"Seafoam">

[Xander Brandt]

Xander could only hum in boredom at the plague that everyone had gathered around. It'd been a boring sort of day where he'd been stuck watching from a distance under the nice cool shade of a tree. It's a simple life he's made in Shula, but it's his own. Given his connections from the past, Shula wasn't so bad by any means. In fact, Xander was still an up and coming coordinator by all means. He wasn't exactly wanting to praise himself on a job well done, but after everything he's been through, he's come into his own with his performances.

Nothing beats the the thrill of the first time he went on stage with a whole outfit wanting to be someone else for the entirety of his own act. Volt and the beautiful web they'd created through their trust of one another to give a wonderful show to. The applause after all the excitement of the first round; Xander could still feel the thrum of his own heart as he looked to the crowd when he realized he wasn't going to be back home. This had been the life he chose and honestly, he was enjoying it a lot more than back in Johto where his every move was being watched. As Volt circles his hat, he smiles up to his partner with a bit of a calmness in his voice. "Who would've thought we made it this far already." Volt chitters happily back to him as his mind wanders once more.

Atlas rests by his side, sleeping comfortably despite the commotion of people. The anxious bug was starting to get better overall from everything. He could still remember Atlas' first contest where the performance led to a revelation about Atlas. Facing his fears had been something that Xander had been so proud of and seeing the little bug grow bigger after everything they've been through made his night. His hand pats Atlas gently to let him know Xander was there. A big smile on his face as he leans back against the tree. All of the contests he's done, the one with Amity and Prince had been a fun time too. Even though he lost, it was a tough fought one. There's not much he can say other than he's proud of what he's done and what he'll continue to do. Shula's become his place. No one can take that away from him. Not anymore.

❞

Twily looked at the plaque, reading: "What does Shula mean to you?" and thought about the question seriously. Shula had been where she first found herself, if she was honest with herself. It had been in Shula where that ranger had saved her and her pokemon, and led her down the path of becoming a ranger herself.

She knew that being a ranger had changed her, fundamentally speaking. She was fighting for pokemon and people's rights and protecting them from harm, which she would have never expected to do once upon a time. She had always imagined herself as a mischievous person, but even mischievous people changed and grew.

She had grown a lot and expanded her roster of pokemon since she had been in Shula. Her original ghosts, Red and Sprite, had grown, as well as her baby Pumpkaboo, Boo. Then there was Kofu, who was rounding out the team in a perfect manner.

Twily sat near the plaque and reflected on her journey so far. She hadn't done any Gym Battles, but she had won something more important than badges, she thought. She had won friendships, with both pokemon and people, and that was something she never thought she would have with other humans, after her horrific childhood. She had thought all humans were awful people, but it turned out that not everyone was like her family. That was what Shula meant to her, she reflected. A home.

☽ Astra Sallow ☾ ☠ There's two sides to every story ☠ Astra stood in front of the lab and she watched all the people there, so many had come out to try this thing and seemed to be just risking it al to step up there and see what happened. She had so much she couldn't show the world, so much it would be a danger for others to see and she could easily tell that their own thoughts and memories were being shown off, not always one they had picked either. All the same, she trusted that this would not cause her issue and took a deep breath, stepping up on her own turn and placing her hand on the plaque in front of her. She shivered as she felt its cold metal against her fingers, however moments later she felt her mind wander. Memories flashed in front of her eyes, so many little eggs and small pokemon, so many children and siblings who didnt have homes or didnt fit in their own. She swallowed a breath as she watched herself battle for the first time with Tabi, Ominis and Jett. As she watched Minnow order around the other pokemon, and then her chest stung as she watched herself in battle, fighting so well and doing so well against the girl she now knew had taken Garron from her. Eyes narrowing in anger, she focused on the memory and the girl it in, hands curling up in anger at her sides. @mod

A hazy little sapling

Hallie had a feeling she knew what she was going to see.

Watching everyone else, seeing how this plaque worked at least in the sense they could see its effects even if no one seemed to know how it was doing this, hallie was almost certain it was tapping in to the things most tied to feelings or emotions or something. It was the area she was trying to study after all, but, she also was guessing a little.

All the same, as she stepped up and touched the metal herself, she felt a rush of something warm and comfy as she could see the scene before her. She had been right, it was her little brother. She could see her mother curling her arms around him, her father standing beside the bed with his Pikachu on his shoulder talking at 200 times speed as he looked down over the tiny child. Her own hands grabbed on to the bed side, rocking forwards as she too through out ideas and plans for the newborn, the image shaking as both herself and her parents began to laugh at something that had been said.

Yea, strong emotions made strong memories, it made sense.

[Nix Night]

What on earth was going to be pulled from her mind? As nix stood there, the metal cold under her hand as she rested it on it, nothing seemed to happen for the longest time. She worried for a moment, knowing there were things she didnt want the world to see appear above her, but then it all melted away the moment did start to happen.

She could see her girls, holding the both of them in her arms while Kari wrapped a blanket around her shoulders, the woman leaning tired in to the corner of the lab while Phantom held her head up as her eyes drifted close. Then there was her baby boy, her girls sitting in the corner of the room with one with red eyes and a damp face and the other with burning ones and a furious expression.

And then there he was, little eyes looking up in shimmering hope at the four of them, and they call came together around the bed to play with the little flick of red hair and poke at the tiny fingers reaching for his siblings. And then once more, she was sitting in a bed but there was no baby there, her little boy was curled in to her side and annie was resting along the back of the headboard, both sleeping having clearly drifted off without meaning to. But the memory shifted, hugging something small and green under the shining moonlight above her, and the determination to bring all 4 of them together.

That lingered, even after the memory faded from sight, that lingered onwards.
