(( Hey, Raskal, what happened to Jace/Raskal? Wasn't he gonna go meet the Cinnibar Gym leader about the book or something? It's like Raskal just disappeared or something. ))

Raskal56 Armond stopped abruptly in front of a set of large metal double doors with the number five painted above on a sign. He waited for Silver to catch up and pushed them open with ample force, causing the two-part portal to slam on the opposite wall as they swung aside.
Inside was a room roughly the size of a tennis court with white lines painted on the granite floor. Along the far wall several benches were planted in a row and a series of shelves placed at the end closest to the pair. The entire room gave off a rustic, war bunker-like feeling to anyone inside.
{(,_,,+,,_,)} "so where are we now" Silver asked with a dark attitude to his voice that even he didnt recognize.

Looking to where Lilly was looking at, Amaya saw the unearthly human and gave a shout of excitement. "Wow! How awesome!" she half yelled while spotting Gally, Abs, and Missy who were waiting for them nearby. "Hey guys!" she yelled as she expertly jumped off Aurora and landed in Gally's arms. "So whats up?"

After a few mintues of walking, Drake reached where the apparition was. He watched as the ghost phased through the lamppost. "Woah..." he mumbled. Espeon tilted his head. Murkrow simply watched.

The aparition continued gliding - for it's legs merely hung limp beneath it, scraping lightly on the ground as it hovered - until it reached a long platform. It moved with disinterrest for the people watching idly up onto the platform and stopped, facing the far side away from the growing number of people.
Just below the back of the platform ran a line of railroad tracks that looked as thought hey had not been used in a century. The wooden planks were rotten through and the steel tracks themselves were rusted over. Surely nothing could ride the length of the old railroad anymore.

"This is where you'll be spending most of your time with me. It's a training room for the new members I break in." Armond looked over to the shelves stacked in the corner of the room and pointed. "Over there are the pokemon we'll be using, go pick one."
The shelves towered over the pair and ran up nearly to the ceiling. A ladder was placed on one side to allow access to the higher levels but Armond walked over and pointed to the first shelf at the bottom. "You can only choose from this shelf for now. The higher the shelves, the stronger the pokemon. You have to prove yourself to me in battle before I let you choose anything on the next shelf up."
Ten pokeballs sat neatly placed in a single row along each shelf. Beneath each sphere a nametag was placed, labeling what monster was inside.
1. Zubat 2. Machop 3. Ekans 4. Geodude 5. Pidgey 6. Spearow 7. Mankey 8. Nidoran 9. Ratata 10. Sandshrew

Lilly watched amazed at the ghost. She looked at the ghost keep going. Then looking at Amaya, Absol, Gally, Aurora, and Missy. "Come on guys, lets fallow, I really want to know where it's going..." she turned around and noticed Drake and seen the ghost as well, "Hey! Drake! Want to come too?" she noticed he seemed to be in awe as well.
"Yeah! Come on! Let's go!" called Aurora and Missy in unison.

He had to throw his arms up to defend against the Zubat's diving attack, the pokemon just barely passing overhead as he ducked. Choosing to cross down the tight alleyway was proving to be a real bother for Raskal, but a shortcut was a shortcut. He watched the leathery-winged nuisance flitter back to the gutter it had first hung lazily from when he walked by and it seemed as though it had lost interrest with the young trainer at last.
Peering out from the dark alley Raskal caught sight of his target. The ghost, for certainly it could be nothing else, had stopped on the platform he had watched the men earlier building and was now staring off into space with a fixed glare. He listened to the growing number of people whispering and jarring one another to move closer. None would aproach the ghastly figure however. The tourist-filled crowd was too scared for their own good.

Raskal kept his distance from the platform, unsure of what might happen should he aproach. Instead he let his eyes graze over the crowd, searching for familliar faces.
"Eevee lend me a hand." He said, taking a pokeball from his belt and poping it open to allow his friendly little companion to roam free. When the small fox-like pokemon appeared and looked up at it's beloved trainer he added, "Help me comb the crowd for Lilly or Czar. One of them should be around here somewhere. I can't imagine they'd miss something like this."
"Eevee ee!" It responded eagerly. Eevee loved the idea of being outside of it's pokeball and Raskal had the distinct impression that the haunted atmosphere would remind his furry friend of it's first home in Ekruteak, just as it had with Raskal earlier.

Rita Czar Molly
"Psst. . . Molly over here. . ." Rita called her as they hid close to the platform; on a bush.
"Molly nodded as she hid there as well. Looking over the man on the platform, with the worn out rail road tracks, she began to wonder why is he not doing anything. "Is it. . . waiting for the train to come?" Molly asked quietly. "I heard rumors that a train for spirits usually come in tracks like these; to take the apparitions for an eternity ride on the train."
"I don't know about spirit trains. . . but I think he's waiting for some person who will try to get close to him. For all I know he could be a Yōkai."
"A Yōkai you say? I have a lot a questions to ask. . . First of all what's a Yōkai?"
Rita sighed before she began to explain, "A Yōkai is a spirit with the ability to shape-shift into a Pokemon form, from what I heard back at Jhoto that there's a Yōkai there who is a Ninetails and she uses a human form, that of a female. I looked around and found her, while in that area, she offered me training as a shrine maiden so I trained under her so that's why I know how to create charms that ward off evil. However there are some Yōkai that is there either to cause mischief, destruction, or death by eating them. So that is why one the count of three we'll approach him slowly and calmly, if he's a nice spirit I'll lead him to rest, other wise I will use my charms to calm him down, It's part of the Shine Maiden's mission back in Jhoto: to make sure there's an equilibrium between the material world and the spirit world. . ." Rita popped his head over the bush as he could see the spirit just waiting on the platform when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Rita quietly screamed and placed a tag on the person. However he looked twice and saw that it was Czar who sneaked up behind them.
"Hey girls. . ." Czar tried to stand up. but figured out that he couldn't move his body. "Um. . . why can't I move?"
"heh. . . Sorry Czar, It's a paralysis tag, for now until the next ten minutes you can't move your body until the tag burns when it's used on a kind soul."
"Great. . ." You just had to be a shrine maiden. . . why couldn't you be a dancer?

Eevee sniffed the ground, searching for a familliar scent. He led Raskal around a group of people who were trying to snap photos of the ghost but seemed not to have any luck. At one point, Eevee poked it's nose in the direction of a discarded box of fries, but Raskal quickly stepped in and picked up the leftovers, discarding them in a nearby trashcan and shaking his head at his curious little partner. "We'll get something to eat later Eevee. You shouldn't pick up food off the ground like that."
A few moments later Eevee's ears perked up and it dashed off ahead through the legs of a tightly packed group of onlookers. "Wait up you little fuzzball!" Raskal shouted after his companion. He pushed his way past the colorfully dressed tourists and saw his pokemon sniffing the ground around the platform, making its way around to the other side.
It was almost too close for comfort. Raskal eyed the transparant old man caustiously as he followed Eevee around tot he other side. He was sure that if he got too close the thing might leap at him unexpectedly or worse.

Drake did nt hear Lilly. He stepped forward, his hand outstretched. He was zoned out. Espeon hopped in front of Drake, trying to stop him, but Drake returned him. Murkrow flittered in front of Drake's face, hoping to stop his Trainer, but Drake simply returned him to. Drake soon reached the apparition.
