With the permission to tie up the scientist, Alastair felt a little better. At least he was doing something useful. Admittedly, he was a little rougher than he needed to be, as he tied up both wrists of each of the scientists and tied the other ends of the ropes to conveniently placed trees. Personally, he felt it was too good for them, but… but, the other trainer was right. It hadn’t been proven that they had done anything wrong. Yet. If there was any proof, though, Alastair would do his best to find it.
And if he found any proof that they were involved with the scheme, he would have absolutely no shame in setting Con on them. The pale houndoom, he knew, would be delighted to exact some revenge for Ryou. Hmm… would it be unethical to threaten people with an angry houndoom? Probably.
But it was also unethical to drag people out here without telling them anything about the mission. The scientists couldn’t be completely innocent. He was sure of that. And they wouldn’t find out what the scientists were hiding by being all nice and saying ‘pretty please with a cherry on top’.
ooc| @Chrom: Let's see... after the gastly attack, the bad guys pretty much ran off. They took the trailer and the black boxes from Wagon One. The scientists that were left behind---there are three of them---have fainted.

 ((Something like that, but people are in the middle of abusing the scientists. xD We don't know whether they're rockets or not, though, I think. ))
Lamen sat down, feeling a little let down by Aimi's lack of enthusiasm. She was so bright and happy last time she saw her. She hoped that at least Aimi wouldn't be lonely, whatever was bothering her... Maybe pokemon could brighten her day a little.
As if hearing her thoughts and deliberately twisting them, Donut exclaimed "Gaaas!" and homed in on the other trainer, initiating a huuuge Lick attack. It's not like there was any drool on his ghostly tongue, but it was still shocking to see a tongue twice the gastly's size practically envelop someone's entire face.
Incredulous, a question popped out of Lamen. "Donut... how does that tongue fit in there?"
The Gastly grinned and flew circles around Aimi, cackling. "Gas gas gas gaasss!"

((Chroma, bad guys ran away before the attack 8D
*typing*))
A strong gust of wind blew down on the camp as Prince made his landing on the campsite. "Ack, I'm sorry guys. I'm back!" Luna called out, jumping down from the pidgeot to land infront of the trainers. Her hair was a bit disheaveled and some of her clothes were torn. The new yellow shirt and vest she had changed into the day before was now ripped to pieces, especially on the sleeves.
"I was following the trialer, they're very close to the mine now." She reported to the group, putting one hand on Prince's head in a comforting pat. "But I think they DO have pokemon, something used shadowball on us from the trailer on our way there. Thankfully, Prince is part normal type, so it didn't affect him." Of course, Luna was not immune to any types of pokemon attacks and got pretty torn up by it.
The trainer then noticed that Alaister was just finished with tieing up the scientists to the tree. "...uh...so...what did you guys do when I was gone?"

 Aimi blinked, then gave a shudder, eying the gastly with slight mistrust. Her sister's gastly licked her all the time, what in the world was up with that. But, as the saying goes, laughter is infectious and she couldn't help but giggle a bit in reply. Scratching the side of her head a bit, the dark blonde trainer sighed some. "Sorry I'm acting like such a downer, Lamen." She just didn't know what to do, or think, about Kader's running off. It hurt her more then he knew and she realized.(gotta go do a bit of running around, Mythee~ <3333 I'll be back in a bit and we can rp more! <3)

Kiri had fallen asleep in a tree nearby, and the sudden gusts of wind made her fall from her perch. "Whoawhoawhoa!" she yelped, falling through the air to land on the ground with a thud. Kiri slowly took her head out of the dirt to look up at the other trainers, knowing that right now, she had just been totally busted.

 Leaving Caddie in wagon two, Fin trudged back to where the scientists were with a disassembled tent and four blankets over her shoulder. Placing everything on the ground, she started setting up the tent-poles. She eyed the other trainer's handiwork dubiously – maybe it was for the best, though. They couldn't be sure the scientists wouldn't turn on them, even if they weren't Rockets.
Fin waved to Luna as she looked over at them. "We got a bit of information out of the scientists about what the Rockets might be after – fossils, and crystals that emit some sort of energy that enhances life forms, or something. We were just trying to figure out what to do with the scientists."

[[ I see, thankies! <33 ]] 
Riza wandered back over to her wagon--her nose still stung. She wondered if it was broken....but it probably wasn't due to the lack of blood. She had a major pounding headache, and whatever that stuff they shot her with was didn't make her feel so great, even after it wore off.
Good thing I haven't eaten today, she thought, trying to ease her flipping stomach. Ugh, she didn't know it was possible to feel that sick! And thinking about Kai didn't help either. What had they been after? Black boxes? Kai was right...this wasn't just an ordinary caravan.
"Whatever, I'm...just going to....lay down...." she said to no one in particular, regretting it because it made her feel more sick just trying to talk. She hoped she hadn't been allergic to whatever that stuff they shot her with was.
Riza crawled into a corner of her wagon and wrapped herself up with a blanket. She didn't really care much about scientists or rockets or gastly or anything right now.
Maybe I'll feel better after a nap.
Sighing, she rolled over and forced herself to sleep.

Once finished tying up the scientists, Alastair simply settled down with his back to another conveniently placed tree, so he could keep an eye on the trio until they woke up. And once they did wake up, they’d have to answer him. “Hm?” his eyes barely flickered to Luna before going back to the scientists, lest the unconscious people get any clever ideas about untying themselves. “Oh, nothing much. We had ourselves a grand old time. A nice polite questioning. Apparently, there’re some special crystals and some pretty interesting fossils in the mine. Dunno what Team Rocket is up to this time… but, they’re involved in this somehow. The darts are all marked with little R’s.”
“As for these folks, when they wake up, I’m gonna ask them a few questions. They claim not to know anything, but they must know something. They shared that trailer with the others for a few days. There’s no way they could be completely ignorant.”

Mythee
((Sorry about the lateness!))
As she was riding Mattress towards camp, a pokemon burst through the treetops and flew around almost frantically. Lamen recognized Jess' golbat- she had seen it several times though this journey. Sure enough, the trainer soon arrived herself.
"Yep, all thanks to this little prankster." She answered, motioning towards Donut. "I called him Donut, by the way. Donut, meet Jess, and her golbat, Ace. And thanks, Jess."
Arriving back at camp, the trainer smiled, happy with the way things were going- it was certainly a lot calmer than before.
Donut gave Ace an odd look, as if he'd never seen a Golbat before.
He asked, somehow doubtful he'd get an answer from the other pokemon.
((It's fine)) "Donut? That's kind of an odd name, but it suits him."
When they hit camp, Jen left for a moment to go make an annoucement about their current situation. The effects of the darts were still lingering among a few of the pokemon and trainers; it also seemed that the scientists left behind were the good guys. Poor dudes had no idea what was happening.
Jen sighed and fingered the megaphone in her hand, turning it on and off a few times before speaking into it. Volume had been turned up so everyone could hear her.
"OY! GUYS! Re set the campsite! We're staying here for another night due to what had happened today!" She rubbed the spot on her neck where the dart had nailed her, pondering more news. "And before any of you complain about not going after them, bring in mind the fact that people still might be suffering from the effects of the darts! If we go up against them in our condition we might get our butts handed to us! Especially since we don't know what's in those boxes they took with them!" Inhaling, she held that breath before letting it go. "Make sure that you guys get plenty of shut-eye tonight! For tomorrow, bright and early...." She grinned and pumped her fist into the air. "We kick some rocket butt all the way to the Kanto region!"
Ace, staying beside Lamen and the Ghastly, cocked his head at the pokemons' words. Folding his wings, Ace blinked slightly.

Donut bobbed in the air with satisfaction, seeing a little bit of fun return to the atmosphere.
"Haha, no... it's not your fault. Everyone feels down sometimes. And, um, I'm sorry about Donut... I don't know much about him yet."
Cackled the gastly in a morbid fashion, although the humans could not understand him.
"Is there anything I can do to cheer you up?" Lamen asked, wishing there was an ice cream stand somewhere nearby. Ice cream always cheered HER up.
An idea suddenly popped up in her head while watching Aimi cuddle her Mew plushie. "Hey, how about we go find Luna? She and Jen are probably making a plan for what we do next, right now."

Kiri was utterly dumbfounded. Several times, she had nearly been caught, only to slink away again. This time, she had fallen right in front of them, and she was still unseen! Taking advantage of this, Kiri slipped into the bushes again to watch.

Duelist of Pokemon "Donut? That's kind of an odd name, but it suits him."
When they hit camp, Jen left for a moment to go make an annoucement about their current situation. The effects of the darts were still lingering among a few of the pokemon and trainers; it also seemed that the scientists left behind were the good guys. Poor dudes had no idea what was happening.
Jen sighed and fingered the megaphone in her hand, turning it on and off a few times before speaking into it. Volume had been turned up so everyone could hear her.

((Oops, posted at the same time. Didn't see. xDD))
Donut gasped dramatically at Ace's answer, faking awe. He added teasingly.
Hearing the announcement, Lamen nodded towards Aimi. "Alright then, I believe we should set up our sleeping bags and everything. Want to sleep with a Tauros as a pillow, tonight? It's warm." She grinned, gesturing towards Mattress, blissfully chewing on grass a little farther away.

So… the Rockets had a few pokémon too, huh? Shadow Ball was a ghost-type move. Well, there were a few dark-types around here. The houndours and houndooms, for example, and there was Ryou the umbreon. And there were a few psychic and normal types around as well. And ghost types too, with the newly caught gastlys. Alastair’s eyes once again flickered, but barely paid Jen any mind at all. Yeah. He still hadn’t forgiven her. In fact, he briefly wondered if she had anything to do with this…
Nah. Not likely. As much as he would have liked to heap the blame on Jen’s head, he knew it was unlikely that she had anything to do with this. She wouldn’t side alongside Team Rocket, even if she was a fool. Besides, she was right about the effects of the darts. Best wait until tomorrow and make a stand. Hopefully, they could catch up to the Rockets before they did anything… drastic.
They hadn’t killed the trainers, so that meant they were prepared for them. Best wait until the trainers were prepared for the preparation of Team Rocket.

Heeding Jen's words, Ridley nodded and went to get something to eat, getting ready to settle down for the night. It had been a relaxing, guilt-inducing day, and Ridley was grateful that not only were they staying put, making his job easier, but that he didn't have to ride Soulcrusher. His legs still hurt from riding him earlier. Letting Soulcrusher graze and wander the field, Ridley went to go get some more brush from the forest, dumping the pile next to the remains of last night's fire and starting the blaze up again, hoping the stew hadn't suffered for the long wait. The longer the ingredients sat, the more flavorful...

PossiBly the MOS+ unmotivated [{traINer}]....
Effie chose to ignore Alastair, and the man did well of just leaving her be. Once leaving her wagon Effie couldn’t help but notice a rather loud. ‘THUD’
Turning in time to see a girl crawling into the brush… “Ooookay~!” Rubbing her eyes with both hands she blinked before looking where the girl had been. Was she still loopy? Did she just see what she’d just seen? Walking in that direction, leaning on her pokemon for support, Effie held out a hand and raked her fingers threw the leaves of the bush. “Is someone in there?” She asked rather concerned, what was that noise?
Turning her head to hear the announcement made by Jen, Effie frowned signifcantly...fighting? Oh geez, that didn't sound good. Who knows how many Rockets there where...and if they brought back-up. ....bUt everyone has A .::passion::. , she might find herZ.
