Legends of the Elemental Ones

When she heard that there was Government there, Lucille's suspicions of Franklin increased. She had seen the Starmie come into the church, and she was a bit excited as she saw it because it was a water type. But the feeling died as she found out it was Franklin's boss' Starmie. And as he left, Lucille found herself disappointed. She liked having company, someone she could talk to. "Good riddance," Illiamna spoke, rather happy he had left. Lucille frowned, "That's mean, Illi."

Her head turned quickly as another person entered the church. "Another Elemental?" she whispered, wishing it were true. She strongly liked the idea of having many people just like her being together. She shook her head, listening to the other inquire when the "service" start. She, too, was wondering why were called her. Why now?
 
((You can speak to all Pokémon, however, telepathic messages are only for the reciever(s).))

"Patience, I wil speak when it is time." Ellie said using her real voice. "We are still waiting for others vitally important to the plan." Ellie felt proud of herself for going along with the lie so perfectly.
 
"Who else are we waiting for?" Andrew inquired, carefully choosing his words in case Government agents were watching, "I think that everyone that wants to be here is here right now; anyone who's not here clearly has other things to deal with."

"So in other words, anyone that doesn't care about the Elemental cause, or is being pursued by Government agents."

Andrew chose not to respond to that, fearing a full response would alert any non-Elementals.

As Jake relaxed in the pew, Verdian decided to go speak to a Vaporeon not far away.
"Hi there! I'm Verdian, what's your name?"
 
Ellie noticed that the government had left.

<Everyone, since it is five minuted past time to tart, I will start anyways, despite not everyone is here.>

<I thank you all for making it here today, as I was kinda fearing none of you would. Thank you for caring about your own kind.>
Ellie paused for a second. <Now to start with, I would like to know what Elemental you all are without having to read your mind, as I terribly hate doing that.>

"So, while we wait, what is your favorite type of Pokémon?" Ellie said in her real voice, mentally winking at the rest that that was a cover-up in case anyone was listening in.
 
"For me? Incase you didn't realise, its Grass. Verdian and Bouncer are perfect examples." Verdian, having heard his name, said bye to the Vaporeon and jumped onto Jake's lap.
"Although I do like Fighting types as well, probably because I like Bouncer so much"
 
"Well, nothing much, really. There's some kind of group gathering or something. I don't know whether or not it was suspicious, but everybody seemed sorta on edge when I asked what was going on. Seemed like it would raise some questions. I'm going to go back there and see what I can find out if it's okay with you, David. I mean, Mr. Goodwin. Sorry."

Proud that he had figured out a way to go back and talk more with Lucille, he strutted out of the headquarters and headed back into the church. Sitting down where he previously was, he started talking to her again. "So hey, sorry about that. Where were we?"

David waited until Franklin had left, and then dropped another pokeball. This time, his Yanmega, Arizona, appeared in a burst of light.

"Watch him, but don't let yourself be seen," Goodwin ordered. Arizona paused as CT gave a few short humming noises to inform the insect, and then Yanmega flew off.

"Now, we will see exactly what this meeting is all about" Goodwin said, "and just what it was that they were all 'on edge' about."
----
"I'm-" Andrew started to say, but was cut off as Franklin ran back into the Church.

"Not again," Lycis muttered, "what's he doing back here?"

Andrew again, didn't respond. Instead, he addressed the one at front: "I prefer Ice-types, as one of my most faithful pokemon here, Lycis, is an Ice-type."

"Oh, stop. You're making me blush," Lycis said. Andrew couldn't tell whether or not she was being sarcastic.

"STEEL FOR THE WIN!" Zero yelled, yeilding no reply from Jonas.

"Steel, no doubt, though my next choice would be Dark." Jonas said, causing Neon to give a small grin.

"This should be over quick, hopefully. I just want to see what thid is all about..." Neon mumbled to himself.
 
Illiamna had seen that a Leafeon, by the name of Viridian, had come up to her and asked what her name was. She raised her ears, and surprisingly came out of her colder shell. She was somewhat pleased that this Leafeon had come over to her, seeing as they came from the same family of Pokemon. But he had left all too quickly. "Illiamna," she said as she watched Viridian go back to his trainer.

As this was happening, Lucille had noticed that Franklin had come back. Oh good! she thought, her smile ever present. "I'm glad you're back," she blurted out. Wait! I didn't mean to say that! Her cheeks started turning a bit red, much to her embarrassment. She tried to compose herself and answer the girl's question. "Oh, w-well, my favorite has to be Water."

Ugh, stupid me. I just stuttered! As if that wasn't noticeable, she thought, wanting to hit her head against the nearest wall.
 
Blake laughed to himself, Hey, dont be mean, Blake! Blake swung around to see his Froslass had let herself out, Dammit Arctica stop doing that, I swear you'll give me a heart attack one day. he heard Fantom laughing to himself, You be quiet. He turned back to the girl who had asked the question in the first place, "My favourite would have to be ghost." He looked over to the person that had just walked through the door, 'Whats he doing back here?' he moved over to the corner of the room his two pokemon following closely behind.

----------------------------------------------------

Zack looked over the information once again and sighed, 'More false reports.' he stood up and stretched his back before walking towards Goodwin's office. Blade stopped his training and followed him to the door. Zack knocked on the door and waited for a reply.

"Well I personally prefer Poison types." Wallace said nodding to Shadow. "Shadow here's my best pal. The only other poison type I have is Reaper but I hope to expand later." Wallace noticed Shadows eyes fire up as he said the name Reaper. Just the mere mention of the Gengar's name infuriated the Crobat. The two had always been rivals, even since they were Zubat and Gastly. But when Shadow trained with Wallace instead of Reaper, the rivalry grew into a full blown war.

"Easy now Shadow. He isn't around now. He's safe inside his Pokéball" Wallace told the Crobat. Kekekekeh! That's what you think! telepathed a voice. soon, Shadow's shadow morphed into a Gengar. The two Posion types locked Glares, Reaper's wide grin not improving. Hey Big boy, wanna play? Kekekekekeh! taunted the spirit COME HERE YOU! respodned the bat. Then Shadow and Reaper began to fight. Qallace hurried up and grabbed Raper's Pokéball and returned him "Glad that's over" he sighed.
 
Goodwin suddenly heard another knock on the door. Still staring out the window at the city beneath, he declared: "Enter."

Now then, Arizona should be at the Church right about now. Let's see what sort of results he turns up about this meeting.
----
Before Franklin could answer, Andrew's attention was drawn by the Crobat and Gengar who belonged to what he suspected was the Poison Elemental fighting amongst themselves. Finally, when the trainer calmed them down, Andrew shook his head in disgust.

That Elemental already looks like he's going to be problematic in this quest... I get the feeling that he could even be the one that blows our cover. Furthermore-

As he was looking at a stained-glass window, a sudden flurry of movement caught his full attention behind it. There was something out there.

"Lycis, do you see that thing outside of that window?" Andrew whispered.

The Weavile intently looked at the window out of which Andrew had seen. After a moment, she shook her head.

"You don't? I could have sworn-" he turned around, but this time, whatever it was out there was not there.

"Oh god, I'm late! Come on, Sammy..."

Cherry rushed through the city, her red hair bouncing around her ears and feet clattering on the stones of the sidewalks. She weaved through the meagre crowds, her Flareon trailing along behind her, the wide eyes of the gas mask shining in the sunlight. Other people seemed uneasy about the gas-masked Pokemon, avoiding her as well as her trainer.

As soon as she reached the church, Cherry adjusted her sweater and pushed the door open, stepping in carefully, Sammy right behind her. The pair stood just inside for a moment, scanning the crowd inside carefully. This was the place, huh... Cherry looked down at Sammy.

"Do things look safe to you?" She asked quietly.

"Ksshhhhh--huhn." Was the only reply, along with the hiss of air escaping the mask over the Flareon's face.

"Good," Cherry said, sighing, and leaned on the wall, watching. Sammy sat next to her feet.
 
Blake glanced at the door as yet another personn arrived, a flareon sat at her feet but it had a gas mask over its face. He shifted his gaze back over to where Franklin was sitting. Froslass drifted aimlessly through the church until she came across a Weavile and its trainer whom she decided to greet, "Hello, I'm Arctica."

--------------------------

Zack pushed the door open and stepped inside, Blade following behind him. "Sir, I have a request. I've been in that office looking over the same reports for three days, I would like to ask if I would be able to do some field work for a while." He stood to attention and awaited an answer.
 
Goodwin briefly glanced at Washington, who had been standing alert in a corner of the room since this all had started. After a moment, he looked at Zack and spoke:

"I do need a few more eyes and ears out in the city. Very well. You may carry out work in the field for a time. Simply call me if you find anything suspicious."
----
Andrew's attention was still focused on the stained-glass window, even though the movement outside of it had not appeared since Andrew had pointed it out to Lycis. Because of that, it took him several moments to realize that a Frosslass was speaking to him.

"Ah... hello. I'm Andrew, and I prefer the Ice-type. Which I can see that you are."

"Smooth," Lycis commented, "Very smooth."

Illiamna was curious about the new company. She had noticed a Flareon come in with her trainer just a moment ago. She left Lucille, but making sure to keep an eye on Franklin. I don't trust him at all, she thought, growling. Immediately stopping her growling as she approached the Flareon, she gently bumped noses with it. She didn't want to seem threatening in any way. Sure, they were the opposite types, but still from the same family. "Hello," Illiamna murmured.
------------------------------------
At this point, Hailey had seen many people walking in and out of Goodwin's office. "I bet they're getting the task of going around looking for those Elementals," she bitterly whispered. She rested her head on her hand, dreamily looking out at Goodwin's door. She wasn't exactly well known there, but was it worth a shot? Sighing, she got up saying, "It's worth a try."

She walked out of her room and over to the door. Knocking on the door, she held her breath. Hailey let herself in, somewhat nervous. Being in front of authority did that to her. "Sir? I was wondering if it were possible for me to go around the city in search for Elementals. I think I'd actually serve useful in this investigation." She guessed Franklin was the leader of the investigation, as it would explain the commotion earlier where he kept dashing in and out of his office. Surely if he had someone like Franklin report to him that he would allow her as well?
 
Without turning to face the next employee that had asked for field work, Goodwin simply said: "If you must go into the field to find Elementals, then so be it. I have only a few others out in the city. One more shouldn't do any harm."

He continued to look outside at the City, watching for Arizona to give any sort of signal indicating that he had found something.

That meeting at the Church that he was talking about... it could just be a coincidence, and I'm overthinking the entire thing... or it could be exactly what I have been looking for.

All I need to do is wait for any sort of indication. It doesn't matter if it's from Arizona, an Employee I assigned, or one that I didn't assigned and happened to see something incriminating. Once I get the signal... I will make my move.
