NEUNEG;
content: Its a pleasantly cold evening and you're spending it trekking through deep snow (usually higher than your knees and sometimes deep enough you sink in chest deep) on your way to Lake Acuity. After a half hour or so, you spot the sign marking the way to the lake. You size up the steep rock wall next to the sign and notice a straight line up that seems much rougher than the rest of the wall. Ah, that means the only way to the lake is using Rock Climb to get up there... You pull a Poke ball from your coat pocket and release Jurian. His clawed feet dig into the rock before he can slip into the snow and he shifts to knock the snow from his tail before you hop onto his back and he roars, charging up the rock wall in a flurry of snow and dirt.
When you reach the top, you jump off and land in the snow while Jurian teeters on the edge of the rocks; he's not fond of the cold, even if it can't hurt him, so you recall him right after thanking him for the lift and pick your way through the trees to the lake. As you walk, you hum some song under your breath and wonder if ***** is still here. You'd like to see him again, catch up with each other and maybe have a battle... Maybe he'd even try to fine you again for being so late.
You make it through the trees quickly and spot ***** at the edge of the lake, but he's on his knees in the snow and... Oh no. Your stomach drops as you recognize the woman standing in front of him. She's Jupiter, one of the Team Galactic members you met before, and the nasty smile on her face can't mean anything good.
"You're not getting away with this, Team Galactic!" ***** shouts, pulling himself to his feet, startling you from your thoughts.
Jupiter smirks. "Oh? Are you finished already? Your Pokémon aren't bad, but you're laughably weak. You honestly thought you could save the Pokémon of the lake? And become the Pokémon Champion? Dream on, little kid." Your blood starts to boil as he flinches back; How dare she make fun of him, after how hard he works as a trainer?! Jupiter dusts some snow off her shoulder, still oblivious to your presense. "But, eww, it's so cold here. Let's go back to the Veilstone HQ." She brushes past him like he's not even there and strides through the snow with a spring in her step.
As she reaches the trees, she notices you staring at her with your hands in tight fists and a furious, cold glare on your face and stops next to you. "Oh? Don't I know you?" She sizes you up thoughtfully and mutters "We met in Eterna City." before straightening up with a haughty look on her face. "Listen. Team Galactic is going to do something huge for everyone's sake. That's why you should keep out of Team Galactic's way. Don't come whining about poor Pokémon and other trivial junk like that. Don't waste your time coming to our HQ in Veilstone. Now if you'll excuse me." She turns on her heel and leaves, quickly disappearing into the trees.
You want to chase after her and give her something to whine about, but... No, she can wait. You need to check on *****. The entire lake feels too quiet as you hurry to his side and reach out to touch his arm. "*****? Are you...?" You don't bother asking if he's okay once you see the look on his face.
"... ..." He pulls his arm away from you and his eyes look shiny with tears. "Yeah, that's right! I couldn't do anything against Team Galactic!" His voice cracks and he turns away to face the lake again, falling silent for a long moment as he stares into the cold, clear water. You stay quiet, because when something is bothering him, it has always been best to let him get it out of his system without interrupting. "That Pokemon called Uxie... It was suffering..." In a flash, he spins around to look you in the eyes. "I'm going to get tougher..." He says firmly and rubs his face with his sleeve. "It's not about winning or losing... That's not good enough... I have to be stronger... It's not enough to just want to be the most powerful Trainer ever... It takes honest effort... And a determined heart." You can tell he's still hurting, that his loss to Jupiter isn't something he can just bounce back from, but you can see new resolve in his eyes.
He bumps his shoulder into yours with a small smile before he leaves the lake as well and waves over his shoulder when you yell "Good luck!" after him.
You look out over the lake for a few long minutes, thinking about ***** and Jupiter and Uxie, the mysterious Pokemon who lived here before you smack your cheeks twice and spin on your heel. It's time to pay Team Galatic a visit at the Veilstone HQ.
what is learned: ● team galactic sucks and their headquarters is in Veilstone, though they were doing something in Eterna (which is how she knows Jupiter).
● they attacked the three lakes to get to their mysterious pokemon and it looks like they succeeded with at least one.
● the blonde guy is her childhood friend and rival from earlier memories, and she hadn't seen him this shaken in a long time.
● JUPITER IS A PATRONIZING ASSHOLE AND SHE WANTS TO FIGHT HER.
● team galactic thinks everything they do is justified since they think they're doing something for everyone's good.
● Uxie is the Pokemon that lives in Lake Acuity, so that means there's a mysterious Pokemon in Lake Valor and Lake Verity too. A trinity...?
● the Pokemon who carried her to the top of the rock wall was Jurian, her male Rampardos. Rock type with a Brave nature, good perseverance, and the ability Mold Breaker. knows Rock Climb, Ancient Power, Zen Headbutt, and Rock Polish.
effects: ● +50 yan (don't fuck with my friends or i'll fight you)
● -20 tolerance for people who hurt her friends
● -25 fear of dangerous and intimidating creatures.
