[FONT=Cambria, serif]Shreds of Time, #1 – Helicopter trip.[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]It seemed that one or two extra people were climbing onto the helicopter. He could have been sure that there were not this many people in the meeting stating a day or two ago stating that the group would be going on this mission. Oh well, it didn't really matter. The more the merrier, providing someone here isn't a total killjoy. Grim was in fact, looking forward to one part of this mission, since he had a feeling that the main objective of the mission was completely ridiculous, and the chances of them helping a legendary were slim. Grim had heard stories of the Legend's Guard saving Pokémon so rare they were thought of only as legends, but this was Dialga they were talking about. Why would a creature so powerful it could control time need help from anyone? Grim seemed to take notice as a boy next to him pulled out a map of the Kimuto region. He didn't really know a great deal about the place, other than the fact its capital was Disentra City. Grim had knowledge of one or two other useless facts about the place, but they weren't hugely important. To be honest, he kind of hoped something would go horribly wrong, and only one of his random pieces of trivia would see them through. The region of Kimuto wasn't hugely interesting. The mainland bordered the south and east of the region, while the ocean in the middle was dotted with varying sizes of island. Most were some-what inhabited, although one or two were simply too small, or too dangerous for that to be possible. All in all, a fairly ordinary region, albeit slightly water-logged.[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]Atunick growled slightly in his sleep, tossing and turning. "Gliga- gar..." he grumbled, before seemingly losing whatever he was dreaming of and calming down.[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]Grim felt something nudge him in the side, causing him to turn to the specific side. It was the person who had held open the map earlier. Grim raised both eyebrows and had a slightly confused expression on his face. "Uh, huh?"[/FONT]
"[FONT=Cambria, serif]So, what are you gunna do in Disentra?" he asked.[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]Disentra, as Grim had just been thinking before, was the capital of Kimuto, and by far the most populated town in the region. It just so happened to be the closet to Astral Tower, which made it the helicopter's landing point so they could get to this tower safely. On the note of what he was going to do in the capital, Grim really had no idea. He had heard that it was quite well equipped when it came to shopping, so it might be worth searching for an evolutionary stone of some kind. His sister had been bugging him to help her find a Water stone, so this might be the chance he finally got her to calm down. Grim's primary thing to find would be to find a Razor Fang, an item which evolved Gligar. That should help a lot on the more realistic Legend's Guard missions, and generally give both Grim and his Pokémon an ego boost; like they would need it. On the down side, the money Grim had brought along was very little, and designed to be used in an emergency should one arise. Oh well, he could always borrow someone else's if there was a problem.[/FONT]
"[FONT=Cambria, serif]Well, I'd probably get some kind of shopping done, and then I might-" Grim replied, but was cut off by Atunick once again. He began to flail around a little in his sleep on Grim's shoulder. "Atunick, knock it off."[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]The Gligar raised an eyelid at the comment, seemingly too tired to make any real response other than a low growl. "Gli..."[/FONT]
"[FONT=Cambria, serif]Anywho," continued Grim, turning back to the one who had questioned him. "Yeah, some shopping maybe, just for stuff I can't find near my home town. But then again, we're all here for the whole 'Astral Tower' fiasco," Grim continued, although he was rambling on a little. "So we'll probably have to deal with that first."[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif]That was as fair a response as anyone could really ever get to the question. Plain and simple. Atunick pushed himself up and rubbed his eyes viciously, but still rather cautiously due to having pincers for hands.[/FONT]
