  Tommy---&--- OpalTwo small Pokemon quickly entered the hospital.
One was fresh from the fight and worried about those who had gotten injured, the other felt she really needed to find her place in the guild.
Tommy immediately ran up to a nurse, Opal following him.
"We want to help!" He explained.
Opal nodded shyly.

Jasper---Xavier---Volkner---Alfred
Xavier nodded to the Eevee. He'd noticed as well. Either the Psychic wasnt a fight, which was bull he'd seen him blast Jasper with a Shadow Ball in self defense, or he truly did not want to harm anyone.
"I...dont know what to think. It use to be black and white for me, but now..."
His ears perked up at the sound of movement and upon seeing Opal he raised a paw to wave.
What was she doing here?
"G'morning."
Alfred blinked, coming to and gave a distinct pout when he realized where he was.
A hospital room? Really? If Solaris treated prisoners like this, he'd get captured more often.
The Raichu standing just in front of him quickly made him rethink the situation.
No windows, one door, he was sitting on the floor with his arms bound behind him by what he could easily tell were shackles with some kind of psychic ward on them that kept him from Teleporting.
The walls bore wards as well, etched sigils that made him frown even more deeply.
They really went all out didnt they~
Even went as far as to leave that gash above his left eye alone. Blood loss tended to make one light headed and a light headed psychic was not as big a threat.
"Top of the morning to you, rodent. How can I be of service?"
"You can shut the hell up til Solaris gets here. Then comply with a mental interrogation."
Alfred allowed his eyes to narrow. Like hell anyone was going inside his head, but for now he said nothing.
As stupid as he knew it was about to sound, the Shinx said what he'd felt anyways.
"It...it was our safe place. We've...never been attacked there...I thought...I figured...WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO ANYWAYS?!" Volkner hissed, sending small flickering electrical pulses along the blanket over him.

 ZoriZori nodded slowly, tilting her head to follow Xavier's gaze. "Friend of yours?" She asked the Umbreon softly, her golden eyes fixing their gaze on the Fire-type Pokemon. She certainly was pretty. She suddenly cringed as she heard a particularly loud voice from down the hallway. She pricked her ears slightly, extremely curious as to who had made such a racket.

 ~Flint
Flint cringed back into his seat as he was yelled at. All he said was simply out of concern but Volkner reacting like this was too much. He tried to show compassion for his hurt friend but this just shown to him he wasn't needed or wanted."Just showing some concern. I'll try to give less of a damn next time you show up at the doorstep half dead." He finally retorted in a monotone voice before standing up and nonchalantly walking out of the hospital room.

Tommy---&--- OpalAfter being recruited as temporary interns, the two Pokemon from Team Gravity both split up.
Tommy passed by a pissy-looking Lopunny as he went into the room he came from.
Poking his head in, he looked at Volkner.
"Hi~ Just here to check up on you!" He said cheerfully.
That was Tommy.
Even in a place of pain and injuries, he could be cheerful.
Opal looked over to where Xavier waved at her and smiled a little.
She walked over to him with a grin.
"Hi, X," She said softly.
"I-I just got recruited to help out, since a lot of Pokemon got hurt..." She explained, glancing over to Zori.
"Oh! I-Is your leg okay?" She asked.

ZoriZori smiled a little bit. "Infected wounds are old news. Didn't you hear? Concussions are all the age, now." She replied with a soft giggle, her eyes lighting up. She flicked her tail. "I'm Zori of Team Stormcloud. It's nice to meet you." She extended her forepaw to shake the pretty Fire-type's hand in greeting. It was one of the few things that didn't hurt. Her bandaged head was still pressed up against the cold surface of her egg.

Jasper---Xavier---Volkner---Alfred---Solaris
Xavier smiled at the Monferno then nodded to the Eevee next to him. "Hey Opal, Zori is a new friend of mine. She sprained her leg on her first mission." To Zori he added, "This is Opal, yeah shes a good friend of mine as well."
He seemed to be making a lot of friends lately.
Jasper's tail twitched as he watched the silent Gardevoir. He had expected some form of resistance, some shouting, cursing, but the Psychic was taking this all rather good naturedly.
Jasper, had he been captured by someone, would be losing his mind right now.
A snap of psychic energy made him turn around to see Solaris teleport just outside the door.
The Espeon gave a slight nod and motioned to the Raichu to join him outside.
Alfred watched this with a calm expression, blood steadily dripping down over his right eye.
"FINE! GO ON THEN!" The Shinx shouted at Flint's back and seethed in silence til a Delcatty poked her head into the room.
What did this woman want?
"Yeah, everythings fine. Sunshine and Butterfree." He spat bitterly. Strangely enough he felt like he wanted to cry.
But Volkner didnt cry. He refused to let himself. He wouldnt. He'd never! The Shinx gave the slightest of sniffled before steeling his gaze out the window.

Tommy---&--- OpalThe Delcatty tilted his head and walked into the room.
He jumped up on a stool near the bed.
"You don't sound fine," He noted at the sniffle.
"What's wrong?"
Opal smiled and reached forward, lightly shaking Zori's paw.
She was going to introduce herself, but Xavier did it for her.
"I-It's nice to meet you... I'm from Team Gravity," She replied.
Crap, she was still stuttering!
Acting shy around new acquaintances wasn't the best thing to do.

ZoriZori dipped her head in greeting once more at the introduction, but suddenly pricked her ears again at the sound of a sharp cracking noise. It sounded like the noise that the Guildmaster made when he teleported. She rose to her paws, balancing on her good three legs. Her golden-amber eyes peered out from under the head bandage, bright with curiousity. She glanced once at the egg, and carefully started to step off the bed to go and investigate the noise.

Jasper---Xavier---Volkner---Alfred---Solaris
The Umbreon's own ears twitched at the sound and, like Zori, he was keen to investigate.
He nodded to Opal, either meanin to say goodbye are telling her to come along, and quickly rushed after the Eevee in time to see the door to one of the rooms down the hall go flying off its hinges, slamming into Jasper who was unfortunate enough to not move out of the way and crushing the Raichu against the opposing wall.
"What the h-"
"Stand down!"
"I'm not standing...and I told your rat friend what would happen if he came near me. I appologize, but he had clear warning."
The Gardevoir was still bound by his arms and still sitting on the floor, but it would seem Solaris neglected to place a ward on the door.
Damn, he always forgot that one.
From under the door the Raichu groaned, tail twitching.
Volkner, having not heard any of the commotion outside, barred his teeth at the Delcatty.
"I dont need a shrink, lady!" The Shinx retorted, lookin away.

Tommy---&--- OpalTommy frowned at the Shinx.
"Okay, two things," He began.
"One, I'm a boy, and two, I'm here to help hurt Pokemon, wheteher they're hurt physically or emotionally. Now tell me what's wrong, sweetie~" He said, using a soft, soothing voice.
He had a pitch to his voice, indicating he was using Sing to calm the Shinx down.
Opal gasped as the door was blown off one of the rooms.
Gulping down her fright, she ran over, standing in front of the door and sticking her arms out to the side.
"STOP! Th-This is a hospital!" She shouted.

ZoriZori crept closer, limping heavily. Her eyes widened as when she peered around the corner of the doorframe, she found herself face to face with a very familiar Gardevoir. The cut above his eye was dripping blood down his face, staining his perfectly white skin. Cigar ashed stained his fingertips, and a ragged green bowtie adorned his neck. She flicked her ears back, watching him silently. She nodded slightly to the Psychic-type, a sort of mute apology. To say that what had happened on the battlefield earlier that day... she wished for those feelings to stay on the battlefield. Right now, he was just another Pokemon. She suddenly flattened her ears meekly as she recognized the Guildmaster's voice, bowing her head politely to her leader. Shoot; he was a Psychic-type, too! He could probably hear her thoughts... She hoped that he wouldn't hold her feelings against her... She just didn't feel that the Gardevoir was really a bad person.

Jasper---Xavier---Volkner---Alfred---Solaris
"Move it, kid. Dont want you in the cross fire if that dumbass rodent tries anything again."
By this point the 'dumbass rodent' had dragged himself out from under the door with a growl.
Oh, that had hurt! He was gonna feel that in the morning.
Before he could move to extract his revenge, Solaris took a step in his path motioning for Zori and Opal to both step aside.
He eyed Alfred with a frown, had they caught any of the others...the hospital would probably be in ruin now.
Selena was a tyrant, Spira was a battle junkie and had a vicious temper to boot and he highly doubted trying to contain any of the others would have been easy.
The Gardevoir, to put it simply, was the weak link as he would blatantly refuse to fight unless, as Jasper proved, he was defending himself.
Locking eyes with the guildmaster, the Gardevoir tugged lightly at the shackles binding his arms above him, testing them.
"What you want, answers, I can not give. You would be better off interrogating a rock for all the information you will get from me." He commented lightly, tongue flicking out on instinct as blood began to stream down over his mouth.
"Would you like to join my guild?" Solaris asked suddenly and at the proposal the Gardevoir laughed.
"Cant."
"Why not?"
"I have my reasons."
Xavier frowned, watching. He didnt know what to do. Right and wrong had suddenly warped and for a split second he saw Jasper and Solaris as the bad guys.
Volkner's ears flattened in annoyance at the Delcatty, who was a boy?, and his singing, but faintly the Shinx's eyes twitched as though tired.

Tommy---&--- OpalTommy's frown then became a little grin.
"C'mon, I can't help you if you don't say anything," He said.
He checked a nearby clipboard for information.
"Your name's Volkner? Sounds really tough~" He commented with a giggle.
But Opal didn't move out of the way.
Instead, she went right into the room, walking up to Alfred as if she didn't think he was dangerous.
"He needs stitches..." She said softly as she eyed the wound above his eye.
She knew that the Gardevoir was an enemy, but she didn't like to see him hurt like this.

ZoriZori limped inside the room after Opal. She watched the Gardevoir curiously. She wasn't worried about being within his striking range. He wouldn't hurt her, and she wouldn't hurt him. Actually, neither one of them had injured the other in any way, even during the battle, although she admitted that she'd tried. Maybe she could learn something from this guy. She pricked her ears curiously, although she cringed in pain as the throbbing in her head returned. "Damn energy cannon thing..." She groaned under her breath, placing her head between her paws. She flicked her ears as Opal spoke. "She's right, you know. If you're going to keep prisoners, treat 'em right. It's the only thing to do." Opal's boldness was rubbing off. She was addressing the Guildmaster directly, and she wasn't being obedient, exactly...
