(OOC: Time for John to be on his own timeline. You guys can jump ahead as well, or not. But while we're all seperated like this, it gives each character the ability to move at their own pace. When the time comes for interaction, we'll all sync back up. Trust me on this one. Oh and just so you know, I'm not after a Darkrai. It's simply something that can look like one.)
It was dark. John was sitting up on the roof of the pokemon center. He could see the money he had placed out glinting. He hated stakeouts. They were so boring! He wanted to do something! But, this pokemon seemed to be attracted to shiny objects. So, he had placed the last shiny things he had out in the road. What if it didn't come? Would he try again? Suddenly, he spotted it. A shadow within a shadow. It was moving fast. It stepped into the light, and John knew it anywhere.
"Oh, ****! What the heck is a Darkrai doing here?" John said quietly. He pulled out his pokedex, but it wouldn't give him a reading. That was strange! He called out Cinder, and flew down to greet this pokemon.
"You know that isn't yours!" John said. The Darkrai looked up at him and giggled. What? He didn't expect that! Well, time to fight.
"Cinder! Flamethrower!" John said. Cinder happily obliged, and blasted a Flamethrower at the Darkrai. The Darjrai turned into a little ball of fluff and scampered away. John didn't have time to be confused. He chased after it, with Cinder flying overhead.
