Christmas Presents!

[unyieldingwill]

[ Video / Action Cianwood City - Johto ]

[ The gentle lapping of the sea splashing against the sand is the first thing the video records. A tiny Vulpix runs into the wet sand as the ocean retreats only to turn and bolt away again when the next wave crashes in to chase her back up the beach. ]

I am really not sure what happened. I used to be in Saffron City in Kanto but I woke up in Cianwood City in Johto. I recall that the weekend... no, this is like the last time this happened... I don't remember the weekend at all.

Is there anyone out there that does remember what happened?

Not that this is really a bad thing. There is a gym here I could visit and it will make delivering these Christmas presents easier on my Pokemon. I hope you all enjoy them.

[OOC: Expect either an Altaria named Mizuchi or a Pidgeotto named Fuujin to deliver these goodies. ]

❄❄❄
❄ Anyone :  Eagle has spoken to can expect a Christmas card and a gift basket of holiday candy (ribbon candy, peppermint candy canes, and chocolate covered pretzels).
❄❄❄

❄ Bakura : Since you like to play games Eagle got you a magnetic travel sized ‘Go’ game. The pieces can be stored inside the board so that nothing ends up getting lost.
❄ Geo Metro : Geo can expect one level 3 Ditto. Eagle managed to capture that guy during that month long vacation they had at Goldenrod. Those are supposed to be nice Pokemon for breeders to have, right?
❄ Caldina : For anyone else this would be a cop out present but some how Eagle thinks you would like to have P5000. Its enough for a TM or a small shopping spree. Money, money, money!
❄ Fuu : This necklace with its red, blue, and green flower crystals reminded him of the Magic Knights. Even if the other two girls aren't here with you now he knows they are supporting you in spirit.
❄ Lacus : Your love of music is very well known so for you, one CD. This artist has a unique sound so maybe it is something you would enjoy.
❄ Chi : You really are such a sweet girl, Chi. How about a few small toys: plush shrimp, a bunch of super balls, and a small cute doll.

It happened to me too... At least we wound up in the same place as each other again...?

[[Someone's not a happy camper at the moment.]]

[Voice]

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

Bakura, you made it here too?

[Well, Eagle sounds cheerful enough about it all. ]

Shouldn't you come out and look around? This place is really beautiful.

[Voice]

[shiromadoushi]

Yeah, I did.

Maybe in a bit. I didn't wake up so well.

[[Covering for the fact that he had hellish nightmares of Ring Spirits and creepy eye glow girls who mistook him for said spirit.]]

[Voice]

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

Do you need anything? Maybe you just need to talk about it?

[Voice]

[shiromadoushi]

I don't think it would help... [[said very softly]] I don't like losing time like this...

[Voice]

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

It is a little disturbing. If I had any clue why we kept loosing time like that...

[He would try to do something about it! ]

[Voice]

[shiromadoushi]

I don't know... it's a little reassuring that it seems to happen to everybody, but....

[Voice]

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

Yes, at least it was not just you.

Do you remember anything that happened?

[Voice]

[shiromadoushi]

[[There's a very long pause]]

Not really...

[tower-trapped.livejournal.com]

Oh! The same thing happened to me! I was in Violet, but when I woke up, I was in Cherrygrove!

Video

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

And you don't remember how you got there? It is really strange... There must be some kind of magic or even technology that causes that.

This is the second time this has happened while I have been in Johto.

[tower-trapped.livejournal.com]

Nuh huh! I don't remember anything from the weekend...

Really? This has happened before?

Video

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

I was in Violet City and I ended up back in New Barktown. I don't remember how I got there... I just had a vague sense that I might have had a dream about a sword fight.

It really is very strange, isn't it?

Video

[tower-trapped.livejournal.com]

A sword fight?

[That sounds frightening. ;w;]

It is... I don't think I like waking up in a different town and not remember how I got here...

Video

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

In the dream it was a friendly match but I can't remember much more about it. I don't even remember who won.

[Its ok. Eagle loves competition. ]

Are you going to be alright? The people I was traveling with managed to arrive in this new city too but if you were pulled away from your traveling party... Could you use any help?

Video

[tower-trapped.livejournal.com]

Oh! Well, at least you didn't get hurt?

[You don't LOOK hurt, at least.]

[She fidgets, just a little.]

I don't know where Saeki went... we were both in Violet, but then... I woke up in Cherrygrove, alone.

[She gives an uncertain smile.]

Oh, but... I'll be fine!

Video

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

I don't think you can really get hurt in a dream.

[Or at least he thinks that was a dream. ]

This is one of those times when I wish traveling in Johto was a little easier. I could help you look for your friend.

[A reassuring smile to combat her earlier uncertain one. ]

But, Johto is a pretty safe place. You should be fine until you are able to find them and if you need any assistance Officer Jenny is always around.

[ She was surprised to see a Pidgeotto with a package for her. When she opened it and saw it was from Eagle, she smiled. She immediately gives him a call when she finished the whole album. ]

Eagle? Eagle, thank you so much for the lovely gift. I love it!

Her message ... is quite powerful. The sound is indeed unique. The piano and violin was a very wonderful touch.

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

Really? I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I knew you liked music so I thought some thing like this might make a good gift.

[lc-songstress.livejournal.com]

I enjoyed it, thank you. Oh dear, now I really should hurry my Christmas shopping.

I apologize if they will be a little late.

[ She is making some of them herself. ]

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

That is quite alright. Take all the time you need.

I really have never celebrated Christmas before, but it seems so important to everyone in Johto. I wanted to make sure I did all of the shopping long before the day. So, I might be a little early!

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

Because Autozam doesn't have Christmas, isn't that right?

There is a history behind this holiday. It was taught to us at the orphanage by the Reverend that is a very close friend of my family. Though, history or not ... it is a holiday that brings some people together for at least once a year. Blood family or not.

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

That's right. I had never heard of the holiday before arriving in Johto. Watching everyone getting ready for it, all the decorating and singing people did, that did look like a lot of fun though.

It is something you celebrate on Earth? I don't know the story behind the holiday but I think it is a nice idea. It gives you a chance to show everyone you know how much you appreciate them.

[lc-whitequeen.livejournal.com]

Well then, I hope very much you will enjoy your first Christmas here. And yes, we celebrated it on Earth. We celebrated it at the PLANTs as well. It is a tradition that began with our ancestors so it is not something we would ignore.

Eagle, if I may ask ... have you seen a doctor about your condition yet? I am sorry if it seems like I am pushing this too much.

video;

[unyieldingwill.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I think I will enjoy it. I just hope I don't bother the locals too much by asking too many questions about everything.

[From a happy topic to a more somber one. ]

I honestly can't remember what I did during the weekend at all. I know we were planning on heading back to Johto, which we must have done since we are here now, but I don't know how we got all the way to Cianwood City. I suppose if I did it would have been forgotten about by everyone anyway.
