[Video] The Search is On!

[travelingtheworlds]

[A visibly distressed Sasha Fyer appears on the screen, her red eyes even redder from crying. Her voice hurried and panicked, she says:]

Has anyone seen a little fox-like creature around here? He's yellow, he's got a white muzzle, red fur coming out of his ears, and a red tip on his tail. He responds to Fei. If anyone has seen him, please let me know! He's a creature called a Pact- no, a Pokemon! A Pokemon, that's right!

On a related note, does anyone know if a girl named Kotoha is still around? She helped me get Fei in the first place, so I'd like to talk with her, too...

"Okay, let's see...first, you should check your apartment, okay? And I'm pretty sure that City Hall has a storage section for things Visitors leave behind, so I'll just bring up their current listing..."

She suits actions to words as soon as she's done talking, turning on a nearby laptop computer.

[travelingtheworlds]

"Hmm, okay... I think that City Hall's storage might be a more likely place for it to be, though."

On cue, Sasha scuttles off-camera and the sounds of rummaging can be heard.

[unbroken_chain]

There's the sound of typing as Kotoha brings up the archival listing and searches through it before making a small sound of confirmation.

"Here we go - 'softball-sized sphere, red and white coloration, reclaimed from Pisces 8-04'. That's your place, right?"

And then I wrong account'd. ><

[travelingtheworlds]

"That sounds about right! But... I think I was assigned to the 5th floor of Pisces when I was here last. I guess it doesn't really make a difference where they found it as long at they found it, right?"

Sasha comes back onscreen.

"Would you be willing to come with me to go get it? I just hope that Fei is actually in the ball."

[unbroken_chain]

"Yeah, of course I'll come with you!"

She'll just throw on a light jacket as she starts heading out.

[travelingtheworlds]

"Okay! Meet you in front of city hall!"

At that point, Sasha heads out.

Action

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha swoops in on City Hall riding Solar Logos a few minutes later, leaping off and returning the Volcarona to his Pokeball.

"Okay, shall we?"

Action

[travelingtheworlds]

"It's the fiery one again! Hello there!" Sasha was about to make another flame to show the Volcarona, but he was already in his ball. "And hello again to you too, Kotoha! Yes, let's go in!"

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha leads the way, chattering as she goes.

"The office is on the second floor - if we're lucky, Fei will be in the ball and everything will be fine, but I know a jailbreaking trick we can use to search for him if he isn't, 'kay?"

[travelingtheworlds]

"Jailbreaking...?" Sasha follows Kotoha, though she's a little behind. "What is this trick, just in case?"

[unbroken_chain]

"I can use my Pokedex to act a medium between your Pokeball and my Xtransceiver to make a sort of radar specifically attuned to Fei. A scientist friend of mine from back home taught me how!"

[travelingtheworlds]

"Whoa! That's really cool! Technology from other worlds is always really cool." Sasha looks around, looking for the door to the storage. "Um, are we close to the storage yet, or...?"

[unbroken_chain]

"Yeah, it's right over there!"

With that, Kotoha opens a door and steps through.

"They know we're here, so just follow me, 'kay?"

[travelingtheworlds]

"Yup, right behind you!"

Sasha steps through the door, following Kotoha's lead. She immediately starts looking around the room.

"Nothing that looks like a Pokeball is sticking out..."

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha's already rummaging through a box with only her legs visible - even though it doesn't look like the box is large enough to fit most of her torso in there...

"Found it!"

Her legs kick in excitement for a second or two before going very still.

"...Um, I seem to be stuck..."

[travelingtheworlds]

Wait, what? What's the deal with that box? OH well. Kotoha is stuck. Time to fix that.

"You did? Great! Um, let's see here..."

Sasha grabs Kotoha's ankles and gives her a yank, hoping to free her from the box.

[unbroken_chain]

As Kotoha tumbles out of the box, she's accompanied by a small avalanche of random stuff, but she definitely has a Pokeball in hand. Several forks clatter out of her ponytails as she stands up, brushes herself off, and present the pokeball to Sasha.

"Here you go!"

[travelingtheworlds]

"Whoa! Are you okay?"

Well, Kotoha seems alright, so... Sasha immediately opens the Pokeball, and much to her relief, Fei pops out. She immediately embraces the fox, who seems more than happy to see her.

"Ah, he's here...! Thank goodness! Thank you so much, Kotoha!"
