"Special in its own way, definetely" Cairo responded in light of Lily's prior comment. Cairo drew slightly closer to Alison as they walked further into town, something Dani quickly noted.
They strode through the what was probably one of the most modernized locations in Orre. "Ahh!" A scream boomed as a person flew from the doors of a nearby building. "No, no, Nidorino!" Called a smaller boy as a large man walked through the doors. "Nidorino will make a nice Nidoking for Cipher" the man said, "No...I won't let you, go Sandslash!" He said before releasing the spikey ground-type in a quick flash of white. "Slash!" the boy commanded as he caught the pokeball, flying back.
"Should we help out?" Dani asked promptly

"Wait, I think he has this under control." Chad said as the slash attack struck the large man's arm causing him to curse. "Now, a rapid spin poison sting combo!" The child ordered the ground type. Sandslash started to spin quickly before suddenly shedding some of its quills which were glowing bright purple. "Arg!" The man shouted, being hit by the poison attack causing him to drop a Nidorino which the boy quickly picked up. "Run!" the child shouted to the Sandslash, taking his own advice and bumping right into Dani.

Just as the boy bumped into Dani, Lily couldn't help but laugh. "I'm sorry..." She said apologizing for her outburst. "Are you okay?" Alison asked the boy. "He must work the for the same guy who turned your eevee into a shadow Pok?mon." She said turning back to Chad. Then she stood and looked at the guy who had just been attacked.

The boy brought himself to his feet, and ran off in another direction, face more fearful than anything Cairo had seen for a long time. "What?" The man got to his feet, and Cairo returned Girafarig immediately. A red beam whipped out and collided with Girafarig, returning it to its pokeball. "I can't go back with nothing..." The man said as he charged at Alison, hands directed towards Pichu. "Marowak, go!" Cairo ordered he whipped a quickly expanded pokeball through the air. "Agh!" the man said as the pokeball made harsh contact with his forehead before bouncing upward and raining down a white light which took to the form of a small ground type. The man fell to the ground in pain, covered in slashes, and in agony as a low-grade posion coursed through his vains. "Marowak, use" before Cairo could finish, an older man emerged from a house followed by a large Blastoise. "What are you doing here, Snagem?!" He inquired angrily and rhetorically. "Get out before I have Blastoise THROW you out!" With that Blastoise aimed two large gun-like extremeties prominantly out of his shell. "Alright, you got me!" The man exclaimed as he ran out of sight. "Who was that?" Lily asked as the five trainers ran to the old man.

The man turned towards the group approaching him. "Quite a large group, large for Orre anyways." The man said looking at all of the trainers. They took turns introducing themselves to the man, who said his name was Mr. Greymount. After a bit of questioning, Cairo finally asked if he knew Mr. Hopper. "Mr. Hopper? Yeah of course, if you want him he should be in a large blue building close by here." The 5 trainers looked around until their eyes fixed upon the building he had told them about.

"So, all we have to do is go to that building?" Alison asked, half-convinced it was a trap. "That was really easy." Lily said looking around at the town. Alison turned to Cairo and whispered, "I don't trust going to that building. It seems so out-of-place here in Orre..." She said before hugging Pichu closely.

"I know what you mean" Cairo said, unconvinced as Mr. Greymount turned away after telling them some about team Snagem and team Cipher. Dani, however, could barely contain herself and the moment Greymount was done conversing with the trainers, Dani sprinted to the building. "Dani, wait!" Cairo called out as the other four trainers rushed after her. Dani, on the verge of tears because of an uncontrollably effervescent aura, burst through the doors to see a large staircase leading to a loft, where a man was heard screaming, "Dani!"
The trainers followed Dani in, and she took to the large staircase. "Dani, it could be a trap!" Chad called out in vain, as Mr. Greymount filled the doorway behind them and sealed the doors, resulting in a loud sound eminating from every direction. "Mr. Greymount?" Lily asked expectantly.

"I knew it!" Alison said quickly as she shook her head. "Everyone return your Pok?mon!" She said as she returned her Pichu and Lily returned her Furret. "We need to stick together..." she said as she looked around for a way out. "There's got to be a way out of here..."

Dani ascended the staircase and Cairo attempted to follow her, however, he was stopped at the staircase by thee men dressed in black. "What is this?" Cairo turned to Greymount quickly, "Haha, Cairo, I had you for slightly smarter than this..." he denounced before releasing Blastoise in a flash of luminescence, more visible than normally in the darker room. "Beautfily, now!" Cairo threw a pokeball as high as he could, and it broke roughly 30 feet above his head,where Beautifly emerged, "Follow Dani, don't let her Get hurt" Beautifly let out a confirming sound as it flew after the girl, garbed in a red sweater. "Gengar!" Cairo called as he drew an expanded pokeball and allowed the releasing light to flow directly from the confines of his hand. "Gar!" the confident Pok?mon announced with a grin, before Cairo grabbed Alison by the hand, "Let's go, Gengar, follow me!" Gengar pulled Alison slightly, wanting her with him so that she wouldn't be harmed. "Not that I doubt your battling prowess. I just..." "Its fine" she responded. The two trainers and Gengar found their way to another staircase, away from the Snagem trainers, who Chad and Lily readied to battle.

"Ready Chad?" Lily asked as she pulled out a pokeball. "Blaziken, go!" She said a large, fire Pok?mon appeared, ready for battle. "Blaze, use Fire Blitz and then Double-Kick!" She commanded. "We need to find a way out!" Alison said as she clung to Cairo as they ran. She kept moving her hand down to her side to make sure her Pok?mon were still there.

"Yea" Cairo agreed. "Gen!" Gengar cried out as a sudden shadow ball whipped into his side knocking the purple ghost harshly into Cairo and Alison and sending them back, hard into a wall. "Agh" Cairo said as he rubbed the back of his head, "You alright Alison?" he said as he held her, not so much intentionally, but as a result of the way they landed. "Ah, Gengar, on your feet, bud" Cairo requested as Gengar ascended to stare down a large Dusknoir, guided by a Snagem trainer guarding the only viable means towards Dani, as well as the only door out of the building that was noticeable.

After several attacks, Chad and Lily finally defeated the two trainers. "Lets try to find the others." Lily said as she ran down a corridor. "I'm fine..." Alison said, rubbing her head before her and Cairo got up. Cairo ordered his Genger to his feet as another trainer came. "I'll get the next one..." Alison said, giving Cairo permission to battle.

"Thunderbolt!" Cairo ordered. "GEN!" cried Gengar as fierce bolt of electricity crashed into the looming Dusknoir. "Now, Shadow Claw!" Gengar flew forward, hand extended, with a concentrated black aura surrounding it. "Gar!" he said as he swiped towards a Dusknoir, who quickly disappeared and reappeared, this time behind Gengar. "Mean look!" Ordered a harsh voice, veiled in darkness. "No!" Cairo cried out. He placed his hand to his pokebelt and tore Gengar's ball away as fast as possible, expanding it upon it first being removed. "Return!" he sounded, in vain as a large translucent eye flew at, and lashed Gengar. "Argh, No, Shadow Claw!"he ordered, anxious, practically on the verge of tears.

'There's got to be something I can do...' Alison thought to herself. "Vulpix! Help Genger!" She said as Vulpix appeared. "Use Flame thrower!" She said as Vulpix sent a powerful fire attack at the Dusknoir.

The fire attack held the Dusknoir off long enough for Cairo to grab Gengar and run up a flight of stairs with the others. "Salamence, return." Chad said to the Pok?mon who was too big to fit through the door which the others were running into. "Hurry, Chad!" Lily shouted ushering him in the door so they could lock it before the Dusknoir and his trainer arrived. Chad ran in, and heard the lock of the door after Lily quickly slammed it shut. "Hey!" Cairo said, noticing Dani in the room they had entered, she was sitting by a large elaborate fountain of some sort.
