Thard_Verad "Heh. I've seen deader," I reply to Shaydas. "Hmm... Tommy's pretty engrossed in that sandwich, isn't he?" A lone water balloon phased through a wall and proceeded towards the back of Thard's head, silently but surely. Tommy wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then moved back to the counter to make a second sandwhich, this time more slowly but with twice as much meat and cheese. [Somewhere in a graveyard, a vegan rolls over in his grave...]

"Yep," Shaydas replied shortly, watching Tommy walk back and forth to the kitchen.

Xatu pops the water balloon with Psychic.
"What was that?" I inquire, turning to look at my Pokemon.
"Oh, nothing. Just a minor issue requiring my attention."
"Very good."

"Say, Thard," Shaydas asked randomly, "Do you know how to fight?"

A second water balloon fell out of the ceiling as Tommy worked over his second sandwhich and a glass of Apple Juice.

I take a quick step back and catch the water balloon on my Dreamcatcher. "Weapons, yes. Martial arts, not so much," I admit to Shaydas. A ring of small blue flames begins to dance near the ceiling where the water balloon appeared.

Shaydas, out of the blue, spins around with a tripping kick aimed at Thard's legs. Afterward, he thinks for a second, wondering why he did that in the first place. He reached no conclusion and just ended up looking a little foolish.
"Sorry about that," Shaydas said, rather embarrassed.

Thard_Verad I take a quick step back and catch the water balloon on my Dreamcatcher. "Weapons, yes. Martial arts, not so much," I admit to Shaydas. A ring of small blue flames begins to dance near the ceiling where the water balloon appeared. "Tch." The sound of annoyance was apparent from the spot in the ceiling where the ring of blue flames resided. A third water balloon was dropped through the ring of flames. A test, perhaps.

[Gotcha!] Shuppet's telepathic voice rings out as his Will-o-wisp strikes Tommy's concealed ghost.
The third water balloon falls and bounces off the second, still perched on my Dreamcatcher. Neither bursts immediately, but they slip off to either side and pop harmlessly on the floor.
Xatu puts up a Protect, blocking Shaydas' attack.
"I will not permit a sneak attack against my Trainer," she declares bluntly.

"I'm sorry about that," Shaydas repeated, genuinely confused as to why he would do something that out of line. "It won't happen again, I swear."

Xatu puts up a Protect, blocking Shaydas' attack. "I will not permit a sneak attack against my Trainer," she declares bluntly. Banette cursed at her burns. She launches off a Shadow Punch to catch Shuppet in the face. However, the attack's power was cut by half due to the nasty side-effects of a burn. Tommy finishes up his meal. "Itadakimasu." Tommy bows toward the refrigerator, then towards his empty plate. After cleaning up, Tommy finally headed back to the living room area of the common room. He finally notices the Lucario talking idly to Thard. "Heya Thard. Who might this be?" The sandwhich-eater inquired, perplexed to see a pokemon in HQ without having met it's trainer. EDIT: However, before a repsponse could be heard, a SIV portal consumed Tommy on the spot, and he vanished.

"No harm done, friend. But in the future, you may wish to fight outdoors or in the colosseum," Xatu nods to Shaydas.
Although he takes a hit from Shadow Punch, Shuppet's "mission" is more-or-less accomplished. He gives Banette his best stink-eye taunt and runs off.
"Tommy, you haven't met Shaydas yet? He's a new member. Seems like some sort of hybrid, though the pokemon genes appear to be the dominant ones. At least as far as his appearance goes," I introduce the two. (Or I would, had a portal not swallowed the boy mid-sentence)

Shaydas turned just in time to see Tommy vanish into the SIV portal. Absolutely confused, he declared, "Well... Didn't see that one coming. Yeah... Don't know much about the whole hybrid bit. Have you ever heard that story of the kid that had psychic powers and woke up one morning as a Kadabra? Same basic principle here. Now, I'm my own Trainer." He smiled and pulled out his Ultra Ball necklace to show his point.

"Oh? No, I'm not familiar with that story," I admit. "Sounds like a variation of Pokafka's Metamorphopod, where a man wakes up as a giant bug."
Xatu taps my shoulder, indicating the late hour.

Shaydas yawns audibly before replying, "Yeah. More or less the same thing, just a different species." He yawned again. "It's getting late, and I'm a little tired. I'll see ya around. 'Night." He casually walked up to the teleporter and set the coordinates to Phenac City before stepping through to his home.
