pinnedbangs | 8th Struggle | [Action/Video] | Revenge of the Blue-Eyed Devil Boy

[Violet City, a place that smelled of new opportunities, shiny badges, birds, grapes, and revenge. Revenge just happened to take on the visage of a tough-looking kid with sweet intentions.]

What's up?

[Well howdy-do Johto! This bright ball of teenage sunshine is more than happy to greet the masses. It has been such a long time since he has last seen everyone, right? It - It honestly didn't feel like such a long time, but judging by how Poochy nearly mauled him upon return, he figured it had to have been at least six months.

Oh well! He was here now!

Despite how early in the evening it was, there was nothing that could dampen the force of that smile. Yes, he did look a little drained, and yes that was a mini collection of dedenne perched his head and shoulders. His smile clearly said that this particular trainer was ready to take on the world by storm - a vengeance storm. He points the camera towards the Violet City Gym. Glorious, isn't it? The video's image stays right on the gym as Rin continues to speak.]

It's not everyday that a guy gets a chance to kick some Bird Man's ass. We've challenged this guy before and he kicked my ass three times before I could get a badge. I couldn't have done it without the old team. But Poochy and I are gonna make sure that this is gonna be the fourth and final time, right girl? [ARF ARF!!

Wow, it had been a while... Right. Now or never. Rin takes a deep breath and shouts out:]

This is for Blue and Birdie!! This is for Soba and Saki and Sei!! THIS IS FOR ACORN AND THE BABY ZORUA TOO AND T-BONE AND BROWNIE!!

Poochy, we're going to get the badge back for them!! So Bird Man, you better watch your feathered ass 'cause Rin Okumura and Poochy are comin' in to kick it into last year!!!

[Now, Poochy didn't really like battling. It just wasn't her thing. But there was no way she would back down after that sort of pep talk! She remembered those guys well and she missed the missing ones. And if it meant that they were still remembered by getting that one badge, then she could do it! She would definitely do it!!

The camera swings back to Rin's face. He looks ready for anything.]

We're gonna take on that guy ...tomorrow morning!! After a good night's sleep!! [If his grin was huge before, then it's just brimming over with unbridled excitement now.]

So keep your eyes peel -- uuuuhh open!! Keep 'em open! Wiiiiide open!! For the biggest battle ever! [Oh yeah it was gonna rock!!

But there was one more thing he had to say while he was still out of Yukio's immediate viewpoint. His voice lowers just a bit. He almost covers the video's screen, as if that could really shield the information from leaking out.]

Hey... so, whoever looked after my brother while I was gone? Thanks.

They're ... what? [He can't even guess what they word means.

WHOA THERE BUDDY THAT IS A LOT OF INFORMATION TO TAKE IN]

What? How're -- what?? [wait hadn't he met someone who was also a grim reaper? augh can't remember but whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is going on]

[Huh. That was it's own sort of cool. The cool of never giving up!]

Then I bet you're pokemon's gonna be great once he stops sleepin' everywhere~.

Like, for real? Really?

[SO MUCH DISBELIEF BUT AAAAAAH THAT WOULD BE SO COOL TO KNOW ABOUT]

Good to meet ya, Edward!

Has he really? [Aw, touching~. Now to tease Yukio about it relentlessly! Yukio hasn't said anything about this guy yet. ...Oh well, time to investigate!]

I bet he told you about how I'm his cool older brother~.

Goodness. I do hope it'll not lead to too many unpleasant side effects for her... and that she does not usually attempt to summon one of those ill-intentioned demons. Putting too much of yourself into an attack is... very unpleasant at best.

I haven't seen any unpleasant side effects on her - not since she first encountered a demon.

[Twas pretty high on the list of "Things We Would Rather Not Remember"]

But if she did have another bad one, she could just tear up the magic circle and she'd be safe. Her summons now is a green man and it doesn't sap her like a leech. And it's pretty simple-minded. Like a baby.

Yeah, really! One day, it's raining cats! They're all freaked out but I've been taking care of mine. The next day, it's raining French dogs!

If he stops sleepin' everywhere.

Rorty. That's... ah, means they're a lively bunch.

[ Can't take the street out of the reaper, unfortunately. ]

Blimey, did I go a bit fast for you there, mate? Sorry. I'm just at that age, is all.

...A baby-like green demon? With that sort of description, I doubt she'll have to tear circles anytime soon. That's good to hear, at least.

Nice to meet you too.

[Cool older brother... well... something like that??]

We mostly discussed how you and I seem to have a lot in common... aside from being big brothers. Then again, I'm cool so that means you must be too.

[Ed pls.]

[A "lively" bunch? So... they're alive??? Pardon him for looking lost and confused.

He is so lost but he is not sure if he should try and copy that slang. Was it English? (Maybe. Some new form of underground English).]

At the age of what? [Speaking in tongues???]

How many of them do you have?

[OH NO WAIT HE HAS A WAY MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION]

What makes a French dog French?

Yeah. And it's way more powerful now than it was before! It's bigger and if it is still takin' energy, Shiemi doesn't show it in the least.

[Even though she didn't have to get stronger, she did. And she was cool in a very pretty petite girly way.]

[Wow, is it chilly in here? Nah, it's just those two awesome guys. They're cool.

Y u k i o

. . . what have you been saying . . .]

'Course we are! Knowing my brother, he probably mentioned how I don't use my head that much.

[See that smile? He ain't even mad about it. Rin is as pleased as punch.]

I'm guessing you're the guy I should thank personally for watching over him? Not that he needs it.

You can make it his battle strategy!

...He's not a Snorlax.

Including the cat and dog, I got seventeen new Pokemon this month!

[GOTTA FILL UP THE PC SLOTS]

I guess it's because the breed it resembles come from France?

Which would mean that either it has already taken all the energy it needs, or that she has so much energy to offer that such a slight drain does not affect her.

Y'know, dude, he might be part Snorlax.

I think it's that last part!

[see how important friends are? you get to brag about them to others!]

...What's your world like?

That's the sort of question that can have a thousand answers, is it not? ...But it's the sort of world where most of us would be expected to battle monsters with our own magic and weapons, not with the help of Pokémon and demons. Well, except for summoners, though even they have abilities of their own.

[He says that with a slight touch of fondness in his voice.]

[That sounds like some High Fantasy Card Game, like Chambers and Centaurs! Or something.]

Then, then, what were you? What was your magic and weapon?

No way.

Both as a Dark Knight and as a Paladin, I favor swords. But I can also wield axes, knives, staves and bows, and if necessary I can cure minor wounds. Every single one of these came in handy at least once, believe me.
