Casefile 011A - Video/Action for Ruins of Alph, backdated to Friday evening

[used_fireblast]

[For today's broadcast, Harry has holed up somewhere in the ruins outside Violet City. His bag is held in his lap, and sharp-eyed trainers might be able to spot the Absol egg peeking out through the top. Bic, his Quilava, is resting beside him on the ground.]

Why is it that every time I try to leave this city, Pokemon start swarming like crows going after Tippi Hedren? Am I just unlucky or is there some cosmic force that really, REALLY wants me to tour the Bellsprout tower again?

[It probably says something about Harry's life that he actually stops to consider this for a moment before continuing.]

At least they're not attacking the way the Growlithe were, but I'd rather not risk traveling through them just yet. So we're camping tonight.

[A load roar comes from offscreen, and Harry looks up with mild interest. Anyone listening close or who are familiar enough might be able to identify it as the cry of a Gyarados.]

At least Butters is having fun, it looks like.

This world has no shortage of weird. It's almost like home.

Yours too, huh?

[Though at least the weirdness of Johto has been decidedly less deadly than the weirdness back home. For the most part, anyway.]

At least here I don't have to worry about having to help the local PD play Agent Scully and spin the weirdness into something non-panic-inducing.

You sound like you've got a lot on your plate back home.

You could say that, yeah. I left it in good hands, though.

I'll bet that's a relief.

_{[He'd been told that time stopped when they left their homes...but it didn't stop nightmares about the Mayor trying to run Halloween without him and failing miserably.]}
