40 - video/action for Vermilion;

[It was kind of strange, really. After their match in the tournament, Riku hadn't seen hide nor hair of Xion. He thought he might've kept missing her and that she was somewhere in town; the city's huge, after all, and with so many trainers, it'd be easy to lose her in the crowds.

But when he tried contacting her over the Pokégears, he got no response. Then, when he checked his PC, he caught several familiar Pokémon inside what would've been an empty box (the others were safe at the TC, after all). Then there was that note... Really, it didn't take much to add two and two together.

So, when he addresses the network, it's with a somber expression. There's an Arcanine bounding around in the background, but Riku doesn't pay him much mind. Making it to the semis in two cups is worth celebrating, sure, but not when he's lost a close friend.

He hesitates before, finally, he speaks up.]


To those of you that knew her, Xion's gone. I've got Bahamut and a handful of her other Pokémon, but if anyone else wound up with some her roster, could you let me know?

She probably wouldn't want us to worry about her. If anything, she'd probably want us to keep smiling, but I know she made a lot of close friends here. It's only fair of me to give you guys a heads-up.

[There's a pause, followed by a sigh.]

And good luck to everyone else in the tournament.

[With his message complete, he shuts off the gear and wanders out to the docks with Flare by his side. It's still mind boggling to think about. After over a year, he hadn't expected her to just... vanish. And after he beat her in the tourny, too.

How ironic... depressingly so.]

...What is with some of your hair, I mean the locals with hair like this I get but really!?

*Pause, oh, right, his friend is gone.*

I'm sorry... about your friend going. I mean-

*She'll just cut off her feed now.*

Glad to be of help. ^_^

[ friends coming and going aren't easy. there's always a comforting thought though, for Sora anyway. he knows that even when the distance is great, there is still a connection. Riku probably knows this too, so Sora doesn't say anything about that.

what he does instead is hunt Riku down, with the best surprise that he can muster. doesn't take much to find him. if anything, Sora and Riku are very predictable people where the ocean is concerned - they'll always be at the docks or at the beach.

Sora doesn't say anything though. not yet, nope. he will just kind of reach up to drape on Riku from behind, shaking some - you guessed it - ice cream in front of his best friend's face. it's just starting to drip, so Riku might want to latch onto that real fast before it gets on his clothes or shoes. ]

[ Kairi, within reason, has tried to spend time with Riku since it became obvious that Xion had left. She's given him his space when she feels he needs it, but this one time, she feels the need to step in. So she peeks into the room, Pluto and Hane on either side of her. Pluto seems a little eager to play with Riku's Arcanine, and she gives a nod, though as she folds her hands behind her back, the Espeon stays near her - almost tripping her, really. But it's fine! She catches herself and steps closer to Riku. ]

[Xion, the girl with the Zorua... Although not anymore. Sasuke frowns at the news before turning off his pokégear, and it doesn't take him long to come across Riku at the docks.]

Riku. Catch.

[Without further warning he tosses a can of juice to Riku, having taken a coffee for himself. It's the first time he's really talked to Riku since that incident but... It felt wrong to see him like this. And Sasuke doesn't exactly want such a strong opponent sulking and out of it before he has the chance to face him.

At least, that's the excuse he keeps telling himself.]

Ah.

[ Saber isn't pleased to receive the news judging by the solemn tone she takes. Having been here for so long in this world, she has trouble slipping the helm of solemnity back over her head whenever something emotional takes place. Xion once told her that she was like Saber in a way back home; that wherever they return to, they had no future ahead of them. This world was their future and so they had to cherish every moment they could here.

And it shows. How her chose to use 'gone' instead of 'returned home' like so many of the other messages similar to this. Swallowing hard, she tries to formulate a response. ]


So this is how it is, is it? [ Not the best and it shows when she cringes after. ]

(Oh, it's one of those. Dante went through something exactly like that just a few months ago. It definitely hurt that Trish left, especially since the two were pretty much inseparable since that whole thing on Mallet Island. There are very few things that can really hurt Dante...and that was one of them.)

You're right about that part; she'd want you to keep going regardless of what happens. It sucks to have your friends disappear so suddenly and there isn't much we can do to stop that. Best thing to do is at least spare a few thoughts for her once in a while.
