    “We need a distraction. Stephen, go grab a pokey ball thing. Trevor, stop arguing and get Isabelle. I’ll grab professor X. Sound good?”

    Trevor muttered a bit, but agreed. "Sounds good."

    He ran in a crouch across the room to Isabelle and grabbed her arm, rising to his full height (not much more than his crouch) and ready to run. "Boss said to get you," he said in a rush. "We're attempting an escape. Merl's getting the Professor and Stefan is getting a poky ball. Can these guys hold them off?"

    "We gotta grab a ball for Dax, though," Stefan said, hesitating. "I know where they are. Maybe you and Isabelle can try holding them off? Make sure they don't kill Professor X? While Merl and I try and sneak away? Or does anyone have a better plan?"

    "Yeah. We could run and get to safety, ditch one of her crazy animals, and use the freed-up ball thing-y to get Dax," Trevor offered.

    Stefan ducked behind the desk as well.

    As Isabelle's Delphox and Lucario emerged, a figure appeared at the far side of the room, dressed in yellow and black, with olive skin and short cherry-red hair. She looked at Professor X lying on the floor. "This is my lab now, Lyell," she said, then laughed loudly, stepping closer towards his body. Several goons, dressed similarly, began to swarm in from behind her.

    "This is not good," Stephen whispered.

     

    Wide eyed, Trevor faced Stefan. "Can you make a portal to get us out of here? Quickly?" Trevor asked him.

    “No need to thank me. But that was quite a jump back there. I envy your reflexes.” Merl again peeked over the top of the desk, looking with interest at the new arrivals. Isabelle’s creatures looked small compared to what he was used to, but fierce enough he supposed.

    @Isabelle6060

    What am I supposed to say to that? Trevor panicked. He said don't thank. But that was for the other thing.

    Gosh, had he really gotten that rusty with his social skills?

    He went with a bashful, "I trained," which he hadn't, and admired the creatures with him.

    Merl quickly got over his immediate shock and dove behind some desks and equipment, beckoning Trevor to follow. Merl peeked over the top with staff in hand. “Are you okay?” He asked Trevor.

    Trevor did follow, deciding Merl knew what he was doing and at last getting his act together. "Yeah, uh, fine," he said, his face heating up. Was he supposed to say 'thank you'? He found himself not wanting to seem rude to Merl, so he said, "thanks" as quickly as possible and hoped with everything he had that Merl would pretend it didn't happen. Then he remembered what was going on and watched as Isabelle's pok-y animals formed.

    Professor X followed. The lab was very large, practically a mansion, with massive glass windows overlooking a valley with cities below, allowing the bright sunlight to pour in unfiltered. What walls weren't glass were solid black, decorated with giant green X's. They stood in what seemed to be a waiting room, with large TVs and a dark rug with a giant green X across it. Professor X slid across the floor, a bit cheerful now, and grabbed himself a dark jacket with a green X across the back, then put it on.

    He spread his arms wide. "Welcome to the lab!"

    He paused. "It's not... quite... how I remember it."

    And with a quick thwoop, Professor X fell to the ground, a tranquilizer dart sticking out from his neck.

    @STAG @Isabelle6060

    "Ahhhhh-ahhhhh-AHHHHHHH!" Trevor shrieked, letting his lunchbox slide to the floor with a crash. Jumping at his own noise, he covered his ears.

    Several shocks of adrenaline shot through him as he scrambled to get behind Merl.

    @STAG

    "Excellent," Professor X said, "Then let's GET MOVING!"

    He flipped the projector off, and he used his wand-thing again to summon another portal. Shiny white tile floors could be seen on the other side of it.

    Again, Trevor was the first to jump in with his lunch box safely in hand--or, pressed against his abdomen since he still wouldn't use his hands.

    Isabelle shrugged. “Yeah, I’ve been here a few times.” 

    "Steve's place is niiiiiiiiiiice," Trevor said, walking along the table and trailing the back of his hand (un-burned) across it. "How'd he manage to land his own universe?" He smiled and pulled himself out a chair. "Just kidding. So, where's this Dax dude?"

  9. 28 minutes ago, Knight of Iron said:

    "Alright," Professor X said, "Gather up! To recap, we've got Merl, head expert on Dax. Myself, our Pokeball guy. Stefan for some extra backup, if needed. My assistant, Isabelle, because of course, and then... some guy named Trevor."

    He walked outside of the hut, and a ways into the grass, then pulled out a wand. He traced into existence a wide, circular portal with glowing green energy, a dungeon awaiting on the other side. "First, to our hub."

    @STAG @Isabelle6060 @Merciful

    Trevor scrambled to jump inside the circle-thing so no one forgot him.

    "Oh, I can get you a burn salve or something," Stefan said, "I've a bit of medical training."

    "Ooh, I've got a Burn Heal!" Professor X said, "But we only really use it for Pokemon..."

    Looking between the two, Trevor decided to go with the more "humane" treatment. (And by that he meant the human treatment). He smiled inside at his own joke. "Yeah, I might just go with Stefan and let you stick with the furry ones, sir."

  11. Just now, Knight of Iron said:

    Professor X approached Fadran. "We're off to fetch a giant beast for Merl, called Dax, back at his planet. We shouldn't be gone too long, and only two Knights are leaving."

    He looked around. "We could take one more person?"

    @Merciful

     

    Trevor perked up, holding his lunch box to his chest awkwardly with his arms so he didn't put pressure on his brunt hands. "I'll go!"

  12. 11 minutes ago, Knight of Iron said:

    The cat hissed and jumped on his face.

    "What kind of abilities?" Konrig asked. "Canst thou fight with an sword?"

    Trevor growled. I'll show you, he thought to the cat. He held out his hand, waiting as water gathered, gaining weight until it was enough to drench the cat as he threw it off. The cat went flying across the room, and Trevor turned to Konrig, "Swords? No. That: yes. And some other tricks, too. One of my favorite being the ability to cut out part of a wall, crawl through, and reseal it like nothing happened. A bit more tricky, but great for sneaky ops."

  13. 16 hours ago, Knight of Iron said:

    “Sorry about that silly child,” said Stephen, “We try to keep him under control.”

    Doesn't seem to be working very well.

    The cat darted in from behind Stephen and scratched at Trevor's lunch box, hissing. The cat tried to jump up onto it and free it from Trevor's grasp.

    @Merciful

    Trevor grabbed the cat's face and shoved it aside. Tarnished knives, that little boy is joining a revolution while I'm cowering in the corner fighting a kitten for my lunch! I've got to do something about this.

    Standing, Trevor announced, "I'm sure you all would be very grateful to have my fine assistance, as well. I can do about anything you need, just tell me what it is. My abilities can assist me in facing about any challenge."

  14. 7 minutes ago, Knight of Iron said:

    “Relaaax,” said Lane, “It’s not even that bad.”

    ”LANE!” Stephen roared, marching over to him.

    “Shoot,” Lane cursed, then disappeared in a flash of light. The spatula fell to the ground.

    “Little beasts. And people.”

    Trevor whimpered as he bent awkwardly, glancing at Stephen as he kicked the spatula to a little corner where he then huddled, cradling his hands to his chest.

  15. 4 minutes ago, Knight of Iron said:

    Lane threw his Rubik's cube at Trevor. "Here, you can have that until I'm done."

    "Lane," said Ghostfire, stepping over to where this was happening, turning his head to Lane, his expressionless robotic head making an almost imperceptible whir as it did so. "Don't terrorize the poor man."

    "Ah, he's lying, can't you see? Wait, you're a robot. Of course you can't."

    "I'm not a robot," Ghostfire corrected.

    "Fine, then pass one of those tests and I'll believe you."

    Konrig pulled out his sword and began examining his reflection. A small square red mark was left on his forehead. He groaned.

    Trevor let the Rubik's cube fall to the ground and watched the scene play out. Then he stomped on it. Once. Twice. Then he picked it up and stood beside Konrig, leaning over to whisper. "Have ye a...fire maker kit in thouest pocket? I need an upper hand on this guy. Also, did I say that right? I don't know what's up with you man, but you talk weird. Just trying come down to your level."

  16. 1 minute ago, Knight of Iron said:

    Lane walked back and plucked the spatula out of his hands, then slapped King Konrig in the face with it. "Your Breath to me, your Breath become mine!" he shouted.

    Kelly stepped forward. "Actually, it's 'my life to yours. My breath become yours.' And it works the other way."

    Konrig rubbed his nose as Lane began tossing the spatula into the air and catching it again.

    Trevor released a breath, some of the knots in his stomach loosening. What an idiot. Can't even use a spatula.

    "Don't flip it in the air like that! Please!" Trevor cried, keeping up the whole broken boy with attachment issues with a kitchen utensil thing.
