Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Waiting for someone?" A voice would sound off from the side opposite where Aile was looking. She would find the source quick enough, as it was Reno now sitting on the bench with his Wynaut on his lap.

Her head hurts and she feels like she went spinning on an amusement park ride for too long. Rhyme stirs, slowly sitting up with a little groan. All she remembers is a whirlwind of fire, and then a high-pitched noise...

Wait. That....everything floods back to her and she scoots back against the wall, pressing her hands to her head. Hans and Gretel, the grunts, the destroyed lab...The little green creature she grew attached to. She takes another look around her again, realizing the gravity of her situation. Perhaps she can--

Her bell jingles as she clutches to it, realizing her gear and her pokemon are gone. She briefly panics, but calms herself, remembering that those who rushed got into more trouble...She had to stay calm, or she wouldn't get outta this.

The jail cell is small, and she walks her way around it, just to get feeling in her limbs, before touching the bars. They're metal...Maybe she could...

A Spark attack proves her wrong with the bars absorbing the attack, but she's not disheartened, only disappointed. They knew she was a hybrid, and prepped her holding accordingly.

The world outside the bars is...dark, and bright red-orange. "Hans...? Gretel...?" She calls out softly, hoping they can hear her, and that they're here too. She'd...assume they were...

The main doors to Devon slid opened as Isaac, still dressed in the white lab coat from earlier and clutching a file under his arm, strode out towards the waiting Snagems. "Alright," he began, "Our meeting with Joseph Stone is set for twenty minutes from now, although we could probably head on in whenever you like. I doubt he is going to be anywhere other than in his office. Quick thing before we head in, however. He's going to be rather upset and pissed off. Partially, that is because I stormed in there earlier and demanded that this meeting be set up, his busy schedule be dammed. It took some yelling, and I think he was about ready to have me dismissed, until I mentioned the Snatcher and Rhyme. That said, it seemed like he was already upset about something when I got in there."

"It's okay, Rhyme. I don't blame you." Hans called out to the hybrid.

"I don't either." Gretel agreed. "Did you find it? The Zapdos Heart that is." The woman asked.

"I hope not." Hans spoke up, his voice kind of soft as if he was almost ashamed to say that. "If so they probably have it now..."

Cera would move herself over to Isaac, lightly tapping his head with one of her hands. "Who are you, and what have you done with Isaac?" She'd ask as she followed, Amaranth quickly followed suit and tried to get over the idea of Isaac not looking like he just threw some clothes together.

Isaac shrugged, as he lead the group into an elevator. "Bulder died, so there was an opening on the Shadow Virus research team. Snagem had direct experience with the virus, and Cozmo put in a good word for me. It's been nice working here, actually. The people here actually know what they are doing, and consequently the equipment breaks far less often," he remarked with a poignant glance at Reno. Looking back to Aile, Isaac gave another shrug, "Also, they are actually paying me. Rather well, too. Which is handy since the entire reason we went to Hoen in the first place, as I recall, was that we were flat broke."

Aile sighed as Reno messed with Isaac and his coat. "Could we please not play around like vengeful children?..." Aile shook her head as the doors opened, the woman deciding to take the lead now that they were mostly there. She'd walk up to the secretary before Mr. Stone's office. "Hello, we're here to see Mr. Stone whenever he's ready for us. And I apologize for one of our number here brute forcing his way in..." She'd give a side glance to Isaac before returning to the secretary.

"Ah, yes, one moment." Another, more vicious leer would be aimed at Isaac from the woman before pressing down on a speaker. "Mr. Stone, the Snagems are here to see you."
