"And now our judges will decide the winner!" Called the announcer to the excited crowd.
As the judges turned to each other to deliberate over who they felt deserved the prize, Asch made his way to the waiting box where the other coordinators were. Wordlessly, he sat down among them, his Pokemon having been returned to their balls. He said nothing and simply.. waited.
After a few more minutes of waiting for the judges to decide... the Pokemon Fanclub Chairman finally stood and was offered the mic.
"Wondrously! Glorious! Exuberant Audience! I will now be announcing the Fabulous. Marvelous. Superb. Superior. Winner of this Amazing. Astounding. Stupendous. Incredible! Pokemon Contest! Lola! Rosie! Guy! Asch! All so specatcular! Strikingly! Remarkable! Appeals! Improbable! Incomprehensible! Breathtakingly! Alluring! Amazingly! Impressive! And the Stunning. Amazing. Incredibly. Fascinating. Shockingly. Unbelievably. Wonderful Winner is...!"

[Dith] [Xander] [Izumi]
Well, that was easy. Izaya frowned at Xander's simple forgiveness. It was like the teen was toying with him. Anyway, it seemed he didn't have much to be angry about after all since he had turned a potentially awkward situation into something more normal by mentioning an accident.
He had noticed his mild discomfort at having left Conrad, but Izaya had done that for a reason. He had hoped that keeping the eevee behind would pacify Dith into thinking that its owner would return to claim it. Of course, that hope was obviously dashed to smithereens the instant Nakura opened the door to the bathroom and found, not Celty, but the hulking form of Dith.
The grunt was quickly backed into the bathroom once more as the large Russian entered. "Calm down, Dith-san!" Izaya said with a sheepish laugh, putting up his palms in surrender. "I said 'excuse me', didn't I? Isn't that polite enough for you? As for the settling scores...well, that really depends on what sort of score one has to settle, ne?"
Luckily, most of Dith's attention seemed to be concentrated on Xander. Xander, with his all-around pleasant-person attitude, was taking the situation rather well, all things considered. One thing he seemed to do well was not act guilty, even when caught red-handed. Perhaps that was because the crazy teen was actually serious about his promise to Dith.
Ah, well. If he wants to reveal Rocket secrets and get in trouble with the higher-ups, then that's fine with me, Nakura told himself. Ducking down, he attempted to slip past the great giant on his way out the door. The loudspeakers could be heard reverberating through the walls and he knew their time was almost up.
"Celty! Let's go!" he called, not looking back to see if she was following as he hurried out back toward main event area of the stadium. He had to pass the concession stands first, though, which caused him to slow down as he caught a glimpse of wild, light blue hair. "...Izumi-chan?"

Left alone with two Eevees and an Espeon, one of which was already a rcoket possession and the other which looked like it might go charging off at any moment after its trainer, Callista scowled. Really, how was she supposed to accomplish her objectives with something like this?
Glaring at nothing, she put her fellow rocket's Eevee down - a rocket-trained Eevee was more than competent enough to find its trainer on its own, and she had enough of a sense of organizational loyalty to let the little thing go off on its duty.
That Espeon, on the other hand...
Well, if it decided to follow its trainer before she was free to do as she wished, its theft would be up to Izaya or Xander. But if it didn't... Well, she had her Misdreavus and her Liepard with her - both of which could take out a psychic-type.

{Dith} {Izaya} {Lola}
"Speaking of the call, excuse me Dith, I'm late for it." Xander said with a smile before ducking around the Russian like Izaya did. He knew it would most likely make him more angry but hopefully he could loose him in the crowd. He hurried as fast as he could get away with it and not look suspicious. His eyes landed on his target as he got closer. One way or another he's going to have to do this fast.

[Izaya]
"Hm?" Izumi turned from her place in the rather short line when she heard her name. "Oh- Um... H-hi? W-what are you doing here... Iz...namura..? " The mechanic rubbed her real arm nervously. That guy had been really... awkward that once that she'd met him.
------------------ [All Rockets]
"Alright, that's it!" Nyx's voice came over the ear pieces as she stood in the middle of the Chairman's long winded announcement of the winners. "Will you-" She turned towards him, "Shut-" she drew back her fist, "the hell up!?" And swung at the Chairman as she had done so long ago at the Poke'Ball when she'd stolen the wordy man's Rapidash.

Rosie could honestly say, she did not expect to see the chairman get punched in the face. The jolly, very excitable man, being interrupted from announcing the winner after taking much joy in using many... exciting words to describe the experience, to be punched in the face by the professor... someone who actually looked pretty familiar to Rosie.
Blinking quickly a couple of times, pushing herself back straight to her feet and looking out over at the judges "What..?" Was this part of a show or something?

The Chairman blinked in surprise, cut off from his announcement by one of the other judges behind him? He turned to look... only to see a fist just before he blacked out. The portly man fell to the floor, quickly knocked flat and unconscious.
Both the announcer and Nurse Joy gasped in shock, as did a large portion of the crowd that quickly hushed.
"What the... Professor Elderberry! What was that for?!" The announcer suddenly said before rushing to the Chariman's side. By this time, a couple of security guards were already heading towards the stage.
---
That was the signal, and Asch glanced up as he heard the punch through his ear piece, then the thud of the Chariman. Quickly the red head stood up and released his Pokemon. "Tyke! Saber! Go!" And as soon as they appeared... the duo suddenly changed their appearance to look just like their trainer. The three of them rushing towards the other contestants.
One Asch went for Guy, swinging an arm towards him, while yet another went for Lola, a broad grin on his face as he tried to knock her over. The other... came up to the blonde girl. "Miss Rosie..." he said quietly, reaching out to take the girl by the shoulder while withdrawing a dagger from behind his back.

Dith would probably have grabbed Xander and Nakura regardless of his promises and excuses if not for the sudden commotion from the stage. Turning around he saw a small woman with puffy white hair punch the chairman, who promptly collapsed, and a moment later the polite young man with red hair was being considerably less polite. "Hooy tebe v zhOpu zamesto ukropu?" What else could happen today? Giving a piercing whistle to summon Viktor, Dith raced towards the stage. Were there security staff around? Yes? Would he trust them to fight their way out of a wet paper bag? No. If there was any risk to themselves the crowd of pigs would cower in their muck wallows.
He didn't even have time to think about Conrad's mysterious words before something started happening and he heard his trainer's sharp whistle. he told the brown Eevee, With those words the psychic type turned and bounded away, weaving in and out of legs and leaping over chairs where he had to until he was side by side with his trainer heading for the stage. Whatever was going on was clearly bad, and apparently Dima had decided that they were going to deal with it.

[Izumi]
Perfect. Everything was perfect. Perhaps Arceus or whatever other divine entities looking on them this day didn't completely despise him after all.
"Izumi-chan! It is you!" he cried cheerfully, walking over as he caught his breath from running. "I could ask you the same question. You're not watching the contest? It seems they're just about to announce the winner!" He beamed at her brightly.
Celty hovered behind Izumi, looking more confused than ever. However, she froze as her trainer met her gaze directly and gave her a distinct nod. He was still talking to the blue and orange-clad young woman, but his signal was clear. She was to take action, and there was only one action she was willing to use on a defenseless human; especially an unsuspecting one.
"Oh, look...is that your pokemon over there?" Nakura asked, lifting a hand to gesture behind the engineer at the ghost-type. "It looks like it's been watching you." The instant Izumi looked, Celty would be ready with a Hypnosis technique.

Guy's eyes shot wide open in surprise when the chairman got pummeled in the face, and then suddenly everything started happening at once. He looked behind him in surprise as Asch released his Pokemon and made them transform to... look like him?! Now there were three?! There was no way Anon would be able to do anything without hurting anyone, and so Guy quickly recalled the Ghost Pokemon. Not a split-second after, he got hit by one of the Asch-clones and fell to his knees.
What on earth was going on?! Guy's head was racing and his heart was pounding in his ears. Why, why, why? Then, a sudden thought hit him. What if this was an attack from the Team Rocket Rosie and Luke had mentioned? What if they were here to steal the Pokemon? No! Guy would not suffer to see that happen!
A short ways away from him, out of the corner of his eye, Guy caught a glimpse of one of the Aschs reaching for miss Rosie... with a dagger in his hand! Guy's mouth drew into a snarl and his eyes lowered to furious slits as he subconsciously reached for his sword-hilt. He quickly reconsidered, due to the damage it might cause, then he quickly stood and rushed towards the Asch-figure, aiming a blow at him. "Get away from her, you b*****d!"

Everything seemed to happen very quickly, She heard the call from Asch, releasing his Pokemon. She didn't even have much time to understand what was going on, turning to see both the other contestants being attacked by Asch. her eyes widened, she stepped back but her shoulder was grabbed by another Asch, this one spoke, this -was- Asch. "Asch, what-" She tie to step away from him when he grabbed her shoulder, blue eyes widening when she saw what looked to be a dagger being pulled out from behind his back. Seeing this she made more of an effort to get out of his grip and away from him. "What are you doing! Asch?"
"PIKA!" Kiss Kiss looked around startled as well, ears perking up in alarm. When Rosie was grabbed, the pikachu turned to shock whoever it was, but her footing on Rosie's shoulder was lost and the Pikachu fell off, hitting the ground next to Vany'n with a strangled "PI-!" Vany'n was on her feet, whipping around but only freezing in place, completely still, yellow eyes wide, staring at the dagger.

{Lola} {Tyke/Saber}
Looks like the fun has just began. Xander smirked when he saw Nyx punch the Chairman but didn't stop in his quick moments over to the Contestants. He could see Asch and his pokemon assaulting them so he sped up real quick to get over there. He caught Lola by the arm as she started to fall backwards and grinned at the transformed pokemon before them. "I got it from here, might what to help Asch." he said and pulled out a pokeball, calling out Zack the Growlithe.
{Viktor} {Callista}
Conrad chirruped after he was put down. He then took off in the direction he had seen Xander go last, he would try to pick up his scent from there. Of course if he couldn't pick it up then he would try the stage before going to the cars.

[Izaya]
"Oh no, I'm working... I- um... sometimes get contracted to travel and do maintenance for people or events..." The mechanic glanced at Izaya's hand, "What? I thought I put them in their-" she sounded genuinely surprised that her pokemon had gotten out, "Oh... oh my...-" she sounded even more surprised--albeit drowsily so--that the ghost type was using hypnosis on her.
------------------
[Rockets]
"Sorry," Nyx bent down with a quiet grunt and relieved the chairman of his replacement for his beloved Rapidash. "You're not going to catch me in a monologue." She reached into her purse, where she deposited her booty and retrieved one of her own pokeballs. "Tazieff! Time to go!" The pokeball opened and a large charizard appeared from the flash. The giant lizard let out a thunderous roar and a spout of hot flame as she beat her wings, stretching and readying them for flight.
"Everyone. Get your prizes, and get out. If you need transport, say so." She radioed the the rest of the group as she climbed onto the back of the charizard. This was her favorite part. The screaming crowds, the authorities powerless to really stop them, the surprise on everyone's faces--it was a nice break from the labs.
--------------------
[Asch][Xander]
"What?! What are you- how dare you! What is the meaning of this!" Lola belted, her angry protests soon morphing into piercing shrieks and cries for her daddy. "Eeeeek! Unhand me!" She yelled when Xander grabbed her, flailing wildly trying to get out of his disgusting commoner paws and away from the madness the contest had turned into.

[Nyx]
Vaulting onto the stage was not a problem for Dith, but the large fire type that was suddenly out of its pokeball was: he might be able to flatten most humans at need but there was no way in hells he could even consider taking that thing on, he'd be burned to a crisp in less than a second. Luckily he had somebody with him who could deal with such situations. "Viktor, the Charizard, зевать!" Was the small woman the best person to go after? s**t, the red-haired boy was menacing Rosie with a knife, but the kid with the sword was there and-
What?
Xander was attacking the contestant in the poofy pink dress. That had implications he really didn't want to think about right now. Xander knew Jack. Xander worked with Jack. Xander was attacking a contestant. Jack had stopped communicating with him abruptly and given only the vaguest of explanations... He didn't have time for this: fight now, think later.
"Espie!" Calling his acknowledgement Viktor Yawned at the enemy Charizard, sending psychic waves of weariness at the larger pokemon.

And scream the crowd did as chaos and an uproar seemed to break out. The pair of security guards advancing on Nyx as she released her Charizard. "Hault in the name of the law!" One called out as they rushed toward her.
During the commotion though, several people inside the lobby began streaming out to see what was going on. The pink girl with her Flaaffy and Jumpluff appeared, along with the girl with glasses and her Bidoof. What was going on out here? The fat man and his Snorlax simple sat there, eating popcorn, as the mayhem continued around them. Most of the people simply paniced, and tried scrambling for the exits, making getting through the crowd very difficult.
---
[Rosie, Guy]
Asch glanced towards Guy and his grip loosened on Rosie briefly as he dodged Guy's punch. The redhead then making a grab for Rosie again and locking his arm around her while holding the dagger close to her face, green eyes challenging Guy to make a move. However, a second Asch quickly came up behind the blonde man. When it looked as if a hand was reaching for his back, it was infact a set of claws that aimed to tear into him.
"Its nothing personal," Asch told the girl in his grip, although he knew that would be of little consolation for her.
[Xander, Lola]
Asch #3, Tyke, blinked as Xander suddenly appeared and grabbed Lola. Tilting his head, he stood there in indecision for a moment as to what to do. His master had told him clearly what the plan was on the way there. Hmm... The Zorua made a grab for one of Lola's Pokeballs. Successful or not, he then darted away to join the real Asch and Saber.
Asch's voice would then soon come over the com. "I need transport."
