If you were to make a prediction about something in the future of the RP, what would you say? Utopia is going to begin making preparations for a second holocaust in order to install the Awakened individuals as the master race. The organization will be attacked and destroyed from the inside out faster than any of the Rebel-Allied PCs can do anything to possibly prevent it, due to Blue's presumed betrayal scene you put in the end of this chapter, and at the end of the day, those surviving fighters from the Organization will have to team up with Olympus and the US government in order to prevent the beginnings of a whole sale slaughter of the normal human race Calling it, right now... If you could ask me any question about something related to this RP and I would answer it, what would you want to know? (Not saying I'll actually answer these... but I'm curious.) hmmm...have the awakened popped up in any other country in the world other than the US so far? Also, are there any other, probably smaller and more fragmented, groups of Awakened other than the Rebellion (Or the organization, whatever it's called, I wasn't paying attention), Olympus, and Utopia? if so, how numerous are they?

Oh lord... well, guess I have something to look forward to then...or not, I can't really tell XD

Mareek "I have no idea what the hell he's thinking with all of this" Mareek looked at the screen of the dex one last time as another set of text scrolled across it's brightly lit face. The site had faded away yet again, just as the first time. Apparently Java felt now was the time... "But it makes no logical sense to confront him like this, will probably just make things worse or whatever. He, of all things, should be able to easily see that major potential flaw in the plan... Guess I might have to do a bit more research on this whole Upgrade thing. So far it's seeming like more of an issue than an improvement...and besides, there's still the issue of that bit of deception..." He got up from the chair, collecting his coat and again slinging it over his shoulder as he headed towards the exit... and Evan. Java began giving prompts in his ear all the while, reminding him not to fuck it up and not to push too far. Which was perfectly fine by Mareek, because he wasn't going to push at all. "Wait, what are you doing?" Chimed in his ear once he had pushed open the doors and walked through into the evening air. "What the hell are you doing!? Go back! This isn't part of the-" "The plan was shit." Mareek said glacially. "If I had done what you suggested and called him out on the lie, whose to say it wouldn't have pushed him further towards whoever's tempting him? And besides, it's best to stay off the radar if we aren't going to be diving into this... you do remember what you said earlier, right?" "But you said-" "Yeah, I know, because I didn't want any protest from you at that moment. You know how strange it would look if I seemed to be having an argument by myself back there? Better to do it out here where no one will even pay any mind." "What happened to trust? You lied to me..." "Just as you did to me when you coaxed me into going along with Jacob's Idea. There, now we've both deceived each other for a different motive than was presented- I think we're about even." "And what exactly do you mean by that? I was looking out for your best interest!" Java appeared in a flurry of data this time, Eyes shooting daggers at the boy and his ungrateful little mouth. "What I mean is, don't you dare fucking lie to me ever again." Mareek said, no emotion at all on his face as his bore so deep into the normal type that Java felt as if his soul would've been pierced... if he had one to begin with, that was. "Because trust is a two-way street, Java. And now we've both experienced being on the wrong side of the free-way. If you were looking out for my best interest, you should've been real and upfront about it like a friend should be, instead of all that tauros shit you pulled. I treat you as a friend and my equal, just like i do with Nemo, and I expect the same regards in return. understand me? Either we can function of a relationship based primarily on trust with obedience taking a back seat, or one that's vica-versa, and I really, really, don't want the latter, but if you're going to take advantage of that trust..." Java He had nothing to say in response to the boy. So the plan hadn't been the root of his actions afterall then... it had been communication. Trust...Friendship. Was that what they had between them? He'd thought he'd just been helping the boy and tagging along because he genuinely wanted to, but... did that count for it then? And somehow, he seemed to have damage a portion of that bridge without even meaning to. How strange this human was... a walking box of contradictions, and yet, Java found he could not feel anger at the retort or the criticisms or ultimatum. It showed what the boy was truly like, he guessed. He didn't want slaves, and he didn't want brainwashed soldiers. he wanted individuals who would stand by his side of their own free will... and so he gave them the opportunity to do just that. Yet Java could see something else there right along with it... something with that last part... "Come on..." His trainer sighed, leaving the confrontation behind as he headed towards the food stalls. "We might as well get something to eat before going back to training. And some introductions are probably in order, all things considered with that... incident earlier." Java stayed for a few moments longer. Then he started off behind the boy, fading back into the green and black surge data all the while.

K, so yeah... I'm finished collecting and whatnot. Now fly my pretties, fly and post! so that I may shoot you clear out of the sky!

Lucas Before Jenifer can give any answer Lucas was pulled away from behind, whirled to face a middle aged fellow with his hand clenched firm on the soldiers arm. His shades were black as night, his attire consisting of a business suit of matching complexion. His dark hair fell is twisted strands about his chiseled face and powerful chin. Without any permission, he began dusting off the victim. A few patrons seated at the bar and the surrounding tables had turned and stared over, many of them holding phones. "Hey, you alright pal?" The Samaritan asked. "You look like you just had a massive seizure or something." He gestured to a nearby table, already occupied by another man and 2 women in attire identical to his own... sunglasses and all. "Here, why don't you sit down for a moment, collect yourself a bit? You need an ambulance or anything?" On the cuff of his sleeve however, there is an emblem that Lucas has never seen before... except on ESFAs. And there are more scattered throughout the place, separated by two or three tables apart, but all clustered near the front... ten or twenty or thrity perhaps. But yet what did not make sense to Lucas... was the fact that five minutes ago when he hit the floor, regular patrons had all been seated in those exact places. Hell... looking around now... he'd see the entire place was occupied by them. ==Behind the bar== Jenifer's face went white as a sheet as she took in the newly manifested patrons, all of them sitting like ravens preparing for the kill, watching... plotting. She could spot the emblem clear as day on the arm of the man who'd grabbed the chauvinistic pig, and it was all she needed to know that it this was the end... Without a single word, she turned to her three underlings, pure terror in her thoughts as she broadcasted. "Listen to me, act like you're going to restock the Tap," She began, already shoving the two males from out behind the counter. The female needed no prompting, already knowing what she had in mind "then all of you leave through the back entrance... Take Kate and Abraham too, and all of you run, and you don't ever look back, regardless of what you hear or see... just keep running no matter what!" "No, There's no way in hell we're leaving you to deal with these crafty dogs, captain..." one of them broadcasted back through the open link in their minds. He began reaching behind his back for something, only to receive a glare from Jenifer. "No, only one of us is going down here if I can help it! Get out, go! Don't throw away your lives for me..." The link was cut the second afterwards as Jenifer turned her sights to Lucas... and the man on his arm fell to floor much in the same agony as he had endured. A surge of memories flowed through Lucas's own mind not long afterwards, powerful and fierce like a river, but with no where near to pain of her last intrusion "You! follow this path, tell them the phrase Doomsday when you're asked for a password at the door! Go!" Already a few of the suited agents were rising from their seats after seeing a fellow brother in black go down, reaching inside their lapels and producing government issue badges along with pistols... "RUN!" The three who made it to the back room No questions were answered as one by one, John, James and Kaz were escorted, regardless of if they willed it or not, out of the darkened space and into a better lit area seating five men looking to be in their late twenties and early thirties by the lone Japanese woman. Each trip had been completed with a gun to the small of their backs, hands clasped behind them and held in place with a hand strong as a vice-grip, a deceptive bit of power for a woman of such small stature... One by one, they were all seated at the bench of a round table, facing each other. The five men seemed rather amused by it, especially the one sitting with a fog machine next to him... "so, More little piggies wanna flee slaughter house, Hmmm...?" "Oh please, look at them, these wimps, they no last even one day in Bane's war!" "Oh, give them chance guys, they probably make good cannon fodder!" "I swear to fucking god..." The woman snarled, whirling to face her suited companions. "The next one of you who speaks in that stereotypical fashion will get my foot shoved so far up their arse that they'll be tasting leather from now on. It's the Fifty first century, you are the product of millions and millions of years of evolution and thousands of years of a powerful and great culture. Now fucking act like it." "Apologies, boss..." they all said in unison. "Boss" turned back to face the three detainees. "So... you three wanna join the Cause? Kill ESFAs and Federals and liberate all the little people who are to used to living as cattle to be able to stand up for themselves? Or maybe you're in it for vengeance or for all the ass you think you'll get if you tell all the girls and boys you're a rebel?" ((Turn order is as follows: Kenny or Yash or Exlink, then Typhlosion. The three in the back room have no turn order in between them and can respond in any order, but typhlosion must wait until at least two of them responds before posting.))

Well, chim, we're here for you if you need us, my friend. Like Azery said, personal stuff comes first and everything. Hope it all turns for the better for you soon though. Take as long as you need and don't worry about us. I'm confident that you chose wisely with these 2 co-hosts Oh dobby dobby dobby... you may try, but you will find I'll put up quite the fight... *Cocks shotgun* I can't speak for Hukuna though, don't really know what he'd do. Plus... not even like I have that much to even takeover anymore.... XD. My uh... hosting career has diminished a little bit since the ambitious days of it's youth. All you'd get now is a sci-fi RP that I'm honestly already considering just shutting down and making into a CW or a novel platform, and Surge Story... which isn't doing so hot nowadays either XD. hell, all my shit's being foreclosed upon, so yeah, go ahead and try, Dobbs,. Have fun with sinking ships XD

Ah, alright then, good to know. This will make a particular technique I have in mind for him later on down the road far easier to develop then...

Oh... sorry, whoops, guess I forgot that. XD Still, already have the suicides on his radar sooo... EDIT: and since I don't see it having been asked anywhere here before: just out of curiosity, how does the whole Factions Primary and Secondary Talents thing work? Are those who join endowed with those certain capabilities alongside their actual powers, or... is it something else?

No peacekeepers area then? D^: Oh well... guess Fuast'll be investigating the suicides then...where's my police man avatar?

Since we're on the subject of death and everything... Hey, chim, this is something I've actually been wondering for a while but never really remembered to ask until now, but... Do Guns and Tanks and RPGs (not the games) and such exist in this setting, or no? It's just that I was reading on bulbapedia about all the types of weaponry that have appeared in the anime (Especially the original Kanto Series, lols...), and that kinda brought back that particular bit of curiosity into my mind here.

Forum: http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9593&page=26#entry315140 Thats the IC thread. And what do you mean Forum RPs are dying out in most other places? This is the first I've heard of such a calamity...oh well, it's pretty alive here, so...

So, I'm thinking of the following for the theme; General Theme (Play during crucial story moments or climatic battles) Opening themes for chapters: Closing Themes:

*Cocks again, fires at Zephyr and Kenny* Fixed it. Now, you were saying...?

Zephyr "Hmmm... Kill you?" The seviper hissed non-threateningly. He began slithering towards the two, genuinely vexed. "Girl, what are you talking about? I've lived in this neighbor hood for years and years now and everyone's just as nice as they can be- why would anyone be trying to kill youuuuuuuuu-" The sound of a trap suddenly springing drew out the last sylabelle into what became a womanly scream of terror as the poison type fell right through the floor in a burst of dust and stone. The metal teeth of the Pit Fall trap extended once more as their latest victim fell to his doom far below... leaving the two explorers with only their own company before the staircase. Seacrest "Mother of arceus, He's a...a...a Human!" Torrent screeched in horror, breaking for the door as if he'd seen a ghost. The wooden slab slammed shut behind him, letting of a resounding Bang! throughout the chamber. Even Bubble seemed to lack a witty remark, face pale as the facade of a glacier as he stared there, glaring at Otto the Human. Though he said nothing as he backed away slowly, opening the door and letting himself through, leaving the hall behind with the same resounding bang Torrent's exit had made...but not before opening it ever so slightly, speaking through the gap. "I'll be watching you...human." The turtle snarled with disgust. Then yet another slam. And he was gone. ((Sparks, I'm going to update you next post since... you kinda have to climb a freaking mountain again and that crap tends to take a bit of time and what not.))

Now now, violence is not the answer here...

It does in my damn world. All the types have a plate now. Even the Mundane have one. and the reason GF likely didn't make a normal type plate is because Arceus is naturally a normal type anyway in the games and such, hence... no purpose with having a plate for Multi type

I've just had Faust sitting around doing nothing but listening off screen for the most part and it doesn't seem this current scene can go much further without being forced. so yeah... I agree that it's probably time to move on

Bold words, challenging steel in such a way. Perhaps some day Mareek and James can settle which type is supreme once and for all... Scizor V Dusknoir, 1-1, singles... I will be waiting for that day. ((And yes, I still consider his specialty as steel even though his team has changed to a Geology theme and now includes Ground, Rock, Fire and Steel types))

Oh please, you all know Steel is the one that truly reigns supreme.

Oh trust me, I'm gonna use these names... I like them far better than the monkiers that came before. Plus they sound ten times more official, seeing as how most of them are greek/ latin roots, the two languages commonly utilized within science And the plot has grown a bit deeper. I've decided to do something with the 18 elemental Type plates. And we need a theme for V2.0... I'll have to start searching since I can't even recall what the theme for this RP was XD

It is the new name of Fighting Types. I've gone through and renamed all the types for the rewrite

It was honestly a toss up between it and gigalith in my mind so I decided to just go and make it the Hatred-Based Choice like I used to have with Galen's Electivire/ Empoleon. IT seems that that particular edit didn't go through when I was making the changes though... fixed... and fixed again cuz I realized something. And Dragalge would be illegal due to the theme

So i went and decided to expand upon the whole Steel theme for mareek to allow a bit more variety. The planned members of the team have been updated in the character sheet. I wonder if anyone can guess what the new theme is from the common types though...?

Sweet lord, I keep forgetting. Really sorry bout that flux- I'm making getting the info a priority right this moment. You'll have it either by tonight or tomorrow. *Cracks fingers in preparation*
