Casefile 005 - Video

[Have some accidental video, Johto. The video is a bit staticy, but it's still clear enough to make out a burned, crumbling ceiling; sunlight lancing down through the gaps in bright shafts. About half of Harry's face is visible, and he seems to be trying to do something with the gear. The video occasionally winks out for an instant, each time preceded by the sound of a button on Harry's gear being pressed.]

[For some reason, the sound is continuous, if a bit distorted by static.]

-'s try not to be here too long, I don't have a lot of luck with buildings like this.

Smoo.

Though at least I can say without irony- "Sweet Kiss"? That's just wrong. -that it was like that when we got here.

Chu!

No, there's just sort of history with me and- look, it's a long story.

Smoo-chu~

Oh come on, it was hardly ever actually MY fau-

RATTATA!

SMOO!

HELL'S BE-

[The feed cuts out abruptly.]

( Action behind the cut. )

[When the feed clicks back on, it shows Harry sitting with his back to a wall, looking thoroughly beat up and dusty. Lara is flopped contentedly across his head, looking exhausted, and a slightly-tattered Rattata is looking curiously up into the Gear from Harry's lap. As Harry reaches up to absentmindedly scratch its head, the large, ugly scrape across the back of his hand can be easily seen.]

So, this thing basically tries to kill me. Lara beats it up, and I stuff it into a little airtight ball... and now we're friends or something.

Ratt-a.

I think it bears repeating at this point... this place is WEIRD.

[Another absentminded scratch behind the Rattata's ears.]

I think I'm gonna call her Frisby.

Ta-tta.
