If I am not for myself, who will be for me? But if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?

Nothing. No leads only pain the legendary gijinka seemed to be more than anything she had seen. She had no one could talking about not Akira...not anymore rather. She didn't trust to race off back into the depth playing hero and acting stupid because of it. Now she more pokemon with different clue to what is happening in Shula but found herself unable to piece together what was going on. She wondered what was going on. What would happen to Shula now? 

What did that voice mean? Why did she finds the fairy pokemon the way she didn't. Everything was adding up but she had yet to connect the dots. The blonde sighed merely resting on a bench in the part with with her luxray and ralts at her side. "To who or what could she vent out this thought too!"

She didn't expected company least of all not this late in the day and having the afternoon off was something refreshing. Wait. That appearance. Emeline knew it had to be him.

"Mr. Remi is that you, Monsieur?" He was there when everything broke loose because of Akira. The ranger blinked to defuse her grow angry not wasn't the time for it. "It's so good to see you! How have you been?"

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

Thorn had just made it back into town after traveling to the far-off Stargazer's Shrine.  The meeting with the three Gijinka had exhausted both him and Alexander.  The Metagross had recovered enough to pilot the boat back, but even the metallic behemoth needed time to rest.  The safety and security of headquarters would allow him to really process everything that had happened.  However, it was not meant to be, as a voice called out his name, causing him to turn.

It was Emeline, one of the higher-ranked Rangers, and his teammate on more than one excursion.  The fact that he kept running into her randomly led credence to the idea that not only were gods real, but they just wanted to mess with him.  He wasn't alone, at the very least.  Odin was riding his shoulder, and Fenrir was plodding along next to him.  As the Ranger approached, he glanced over at the Honchkrow.  Odin's eyes twinkled as he spread his wings and took off, doing recon for any more possible Rangers or Police presence in the immediate area.  There was little chance of it, but Thorn didn't want to take any chances.  Smiling at her, he waved and made his way over to her, his Granbull walking on all fours in his wake.

"Miss Emeline!  How lovely to see you as well!  What brings a lovely flower such as yourself out to this desert town?"

He smiled and put on a winning face.  He hadn't expected to run into her, but now that he had there was no opportunity to withdraw to headquarters.  At the very least, he could take her to a cafe and enjoy a glass of wine under the ferocious sun.

"Well...I needed some fresh air and clear my head. It's been some time since I have come to Oasis city. I think that time was when I went to the ruins." Emeline said honesty with Remi. As she thought of him as good friend. Even since things and what happened to girl. She hadn't been the same nor she had the change to speak to fawn about what happened. She was afraid of the being turned into cheese. She saw what her power can do. 

"It's that...well you remember the pokemon we be fought before right? The beast seems both rock and fairy?" The pokemon that was linked to the girl in more ways than one.

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

The girl had come out here to escape her own inner demons, and now wished to tell her secret concerns to the greatest devil of all.  That was highly curious.  Still, if she wanted to bring up the events of the underground caverns, then it wasn't an unwelcome development.  Thorn had been charged with introducing what he learned from the three freaks on the island with the world at large, and although Team Rocket was now more than briefed, he knew that he could not rely on the Grunts alone to do something about the Diamond Crystals.  Perhaps Emeline, a high ranking ranger, would be the right candidate to break that information to.  Ideally, Thorn wanted to speak with Akira about this, but that could wait.  Still, no reason to rush right into what he wanted to share.  

"Sadly, yes, my dear.  It will take more than one or two glasses of wine to make that go away.  Speaking of..."

Thorn lifted his hand towards a cafe at the corner of the street.  

"...for serious talk like that, we might as well do it in comfort.  Then you can tell me about what seems to be troubling you.  Care to join me at the cafe?"

A friendly invitation from a friendly face normally would hold little to no danger, but when that face masked the cruelty of the Antisocial Sociopath was usually a predecessor to violence.

"Oh, well. I haven't drink a while but honesty I think could go for one." Emeline might a bit too trust of Thorn however he had never given a reason not like Amy. The coordinator could know as much as her or could he? A lot has change since that time. "Please lead the way, Monsieur Remi." 

The girl spoke happily stood back to follow after her dearest friend. The desert city even this time of years was indeed quite hot. "How many cafes does Oasis City have or you know off? Was is your favorite one?" A few harmless question from a curious maiden couldn't hurt now, could it.

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

Thorn directed them to the little cafe on the corner and sat them at a little table outside.  Thorn made sure both chairs were under the umbrella so the two diners could enjoy the shade.  For his own comfort, Fenrir tucked himself underneath the table and took a siesta.  He wasn’t getting any sense of urgency out of his CO, so he decided to allow himself a few winks.  The incognito criminal pondered Emeline’s question as he slid her the wine list to review.  

“My favorite? Oh, I don’t know if I could select just one.  There are so many cafes here with character, but I do enjoy this one particularly!”

The reason he liked this one in particular was that he had seeded multiple grunts into the staff.  It never hurt to spy on the customers for any leads to any promising enterprises they could rip off.   Thorn was always trying to remain one step ahead of the competition which is why this whole affair with the Diamond Crystals and the half-breeds was so vexing.  Still, he had been ready to search out Nix Night or even Akira in regards to his latest fiasco of an update on that mysterious island, and this opportunity to discuss it with Emeline could pay off in spades.  He’d be able to divulge some of the information that the three Gijinka had given him to someone he at least had the measure of, and surely it would spread like wildfire amongst the Rangers, which would minimize his need to talk to idiots.  He smiled and reached into his pocket for a cigarillo.

”Now, what was it you wanted to discuss?”

How fancy. Remi did have have classic but it was expected one of the best coordinators in region.. She was charmed but it also seemed a lot of the people around him was too. It was kinda eat being able to changed with a local celebrity. Emeline relaxed sitting down there was a lot to unpack. " There is quite a lot but I found start with this. Some background first as it might sounds extremely far-fetched but it's true. I went back to the cavern. One of my pokemon has been getting a call in their dreams idk from who or what but I wasn't  going to not heed it." She already did some wrongs so she wasn't expecting anything else 

"It took a while of searching , recalling the past etc. but I found what I was looking for. I had a pokeball made for him." The blonde placed a odd pokeball down on the table. It was a dead getaway for what she was hinting at. "Yes...it's one of them but a baby. The one we fought wasn't one of kinda but a shulian Rhyperior.  There are more out there but extremely rare."

Thorn blinked at the Pokeball that was set on the table.  Perhaps he wasn't the only serial killer in the region after all.  As curious as he was to get a closer look at it, the Antisocial Socialite steeled himself and continued his performance.  Remy Dupris would be incredibly hesitant around this sort of thing.  He slowly reached a hand towards it, before pausing.

"There are more of them?  How fascinating... a regional variant!  How does it differ from a typical Rhyhorn?"

He took a breath and finally picked up the Pokeball.  It didn't seem any different from the normal device, but the pattern suggested it was anything but.  This wasn't great news for Thorn.  He had figured the cavern would remain inaccessible after the dead halfbreed collapsed it, but it seemed that he had bet on the wrong Ponyta.  The rangers, and vicariously the police, had already scoured it, so any chance to find something helpful was now long gone.  Thorn placed it back on the table.

"This...isn't made from that nightmare mother we fought or something is it?  It's a bit macabre for me..."

The Rocket Admin leaned back into his chair.  

"It was brave of you to go back.  You said your Pokemon is having...dreams about it?  What else did you find?"

He gently probed and delicately led the questioning down the path he wanted it to go.  Even if his goal was to plant information, there was no harm in reaping some for himself.  

Fenrir stretched a paw out in his semi-slumber, accidentally bumping Emeline's leg.  He was doing his best to seem like he was a cute companion seeking attention.

"No, it's might have the coloring but other than that it's just a normal pokeball. I might make pelts of deerling and thing like that to keep warm in the jungle but I'm not that bad." The blonde recalled everything she heard or better yet mentioned. She wanted to say a lot but decided to take her time.

"The one we fought might have been the first of their kind but now there are other things here now. I think has to be deal with a strange amount of energy that effect both rock and fairy a while ago."  Emeline responded modestly recalled the other pokemon who seemed to have been "inflected" by the girl powers and even akira. She gently leaned down to pet Fenrir. He was such a good puppy.

"Well as we remained it  showed him a lot images of pokemon with odd appearances.. I still can't rap my head around what it could be." The ranger said honest while the pokeball in thorn's shook somewhat. "He said he saw evolutions of pokemon beyond anything in shula. More like those kinda my home region, Mega Evolution."

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

"Mega Evolution..."

The light finally clicked for Thorn.  He had heard about it before, but had never done a whole lot of research about it.  That's what happened to Alexander when he met with the trio of Gijinka on that island from the riddle.  That was why he was given this stone.

"I believe that you are the second person in recent history to be telling me something about that.  Perhaps it is more than chance we ran into each other after all.  Since you are a ranger and a member of law enforcement, my friend, let me tell you about what happened to me after the last contest."

Thorn then described the three legendary Gijinka he had met on the island, and discussed with her what he learned of the Diamond Crystals meddling causing the very fabric of their world to break.  He left out the part about Alexander mega evolving and the battle that ensued, as he wanted to keep his Metagross' identity a secret from the world at large as much as possible.  Lots of people might have a Froslass or a Honchkrow.  Very few had a Metagross.  Once he summed up their fear of the world destroying itself, he reached into his pocket and placed the stone he had been given on the table as well.

"They gave me this and said it would be capable of helping some of our Pokemon achieve even greater forms.  They said that it was a result of that poor girl dying and disappearing into the ground in the cavern."

He would let her examine the stone, but he had no intention of letting her keep it.  It was going to be the key to his Metagross unlocking that powerful form once again.

"That's not all.  They also told me about some legendary running amok and causing chaos.  Have you heard anything about that?"

Meanwhile, Fenrir wagged his tail happily, playing the role of a good pet once more.

Notes: THIS IS THE IC RELATION OF PLOT EVENTS TO EMELINE.  This means that the rangers, and thus the police and whoever they decide to share the information with are alerted to the plight the world is in. 

The details of this state of the world can be observed here.

Thorn decided to keep Alexander's identity and the details of the battle to himself.

"That a lot to take in and it makes sense as well. Amy was extremely close to Kaz. Rayquaza's son however because what happened to her...she more or less got throw off a cliff. I have met up with Fawn yet. I don't know how she's holding up but if I get arrows thrown at me I will let you." Emeline was only half joking know how powerful through pokemon can become.

" I am quite shock about everything but least they are trying to speak out about what is happening. Akira hasn't been the same since he foolishly jump the gun in the cavern but I heard he had met the gijinka father and he almost died as well." Emeline sighed lied back in her set before letting the admin what she knew from Akira mentioned about diancie.

"A Legendary running around however there being rumors. I can't say I have heard anything about that however there is a new kind of pokemon shulian mimiyu appeared from out of where. It seems to have an some affinity to the moon. It's something to be looking into least."

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

Thorn leaned back in his chair as she continued to talk.  He wasn't one hundred percent certain of all the names she was mentioning, but the word Rayquaza stuck out to him.  Suddenly it was starting to come back to him.  Each of these freaks were dangerous in their own right.  Thorn knew that they would all be better off if each of the legendary 'children' were as dead as the girl from the cave.  However he couldn't afford to verbalize that in the presence of...well, anyone who wasn't in the organization.  

"You make it sound like associating with all of these children are dangerous."

He sighed and shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I just...can't figure this all out.  I'm a performer, not a scientist or hero.  I feel so...worthless.  How can we help these people against the Diamond Crystals?  Have you or the police come up with a plan?"

The Antisocial Socialite turned his head as a waiter approached, one of the planted grunts.  He used it as an opportunity to mask any excitement he would have failed to mask as he posed the question seeking to probe the ranger for information.

"Yes, I'll have a cup of Chamomille.  Miss Emeline?"

"Like with any wild pokemon there is always a risk. Legendary Pokemon or gijinka would rather not deal with it but will kill if they have too. They have powers would could even dream off after all. They could kill us." It was the truth. In all honesty their was a lot those gijinkas were compatible with power many had just began to scratch the surface off.



"No, your feelings are valid. Most of us are trying to put our head together. I have order a few of many ranger obverse caverns and the ruins however nothing has turned up yet. There only so much I can do even as a high rank ranger. The police I have my eye and ears open but getting knowledge from them is a bit hard." Emeline sighed deeply upon waiter come on over. She didn't mean to be rude however she kept her looked down at her hands. "Lemon balm Tea, please. That will be all."

Once the order were place and the waiter was gone. Emeline felt insecure.  "This is like a game of chess. Each faction ranger, police, even Team Rocket are like pieces. We keep trying to put to an end to a threat even danger than our natural bickering but no luck. It is...wrong maybe even a wishful dream. To we might be able come together to work on something that could break our world."

[Remy 'Thorn' Dupris]

Thorn knew exactly how dangerous legendary Pokemon could be.  He knew how powerful his ally Giratina could be, and had even experienced the anger from Tapu Bulu once.  However, her next words rocked him to his very core.  He couldn't stop himself from repeating what she had said.

"Team Rocket?"

It had to have been just a coincidence.  There should be no way that a mediocre ranger would have figured him out without him being assaulted from all sides at any number of the public appearances he had made.  Could it have been just a guess?  Did she mean anything by it?  Thorn had to calm himself and stop his brain from working at such a breakneck pace.  

He allowed his eyes to widen.  It would be best to act like he knew nothing and let her keep talking.  Perhaps her tongue would be loose enough to hang herself with it.  

"Do you think they have something to do with the Crystals?  Could they be in cahoots?"

He hated the fact he was talking about the organization at all, but he had to know what Emeline knew.  If she knew too much, he'd have to handle this swiftly and suddenly.

How odd? Remy seemed rather shocked she would even Team Rocket then again. They have a lot of mischief. They were nuisance however she would compare to a fly she constantly has to shoot away. Something she killed it another time when their were too many she had to back off. However Diamond Crystal were like Roaches. “Yeah, Remy. I do mean Team Rocket and no I don’t. I don’t think I have enough the man power to even do half the damage that Diamond Crystal can do.”

“Or else they would have attacked us by now. Thing would have been ways different. If you noticed DC likes to belittle the rangers. Do you think Team Rocket would be any different? If they were stronger than DC or knew more than we do. I don't think the events of the crystal girl would have happened at all.” Emeline spoke logically while staring at her friend. Fawn said no one was putting anything together that meant both sides. It was both sides fault there. Emeline watched his expressions as if she was looking for something. "DC would never work with Team Rocket. Now with how superior they acts I think they are running circle around them- around everyone.”

“For what I said seen, if TR are in any better shape than us. Do you think DC would have the high ground they do?"
