Marcus stormed into the Pokemon center, clearly having a bad day. He handed his Noivern to Nurse Joy quietly and while she took care of his hurt friend, Marcus walked over to the bulletin board. He tore down the bounty on Alex Midas and started crumpling it with more force than was necessary.
"I. HATE. It. When. They. Get. Away!!" Marcus said in a low, toxic tone. First this poke-thief douchebag targets a Celebi, and Marcus could do nothing to stop it. Poor LegBiter still sometimes flinched at shadow balls. Now this goddamn Elite Four ass-wipe kidnaps Kurtis and not even a solid hit from Noivern could rescue his first friend in Lialta. "Fuckfuckfuck..." The hunter swore under his breath, shoving the bounty into a trash can.
Then he put up a bulletin that had Kurtis's face pictured on it, smiling. Underneath, the words "Come battle at the Taurinno City Gym!" Had been crossed out and instead the words "Have you seen this man?" Were scrawled underneath. What kind of weak ass shit was he trying, thought Marcus. Was he really so desperate for leads?

With a gut wrenching stop, Olivia appeared inside the Pokemon Center.
"What the-" she started, looking round. It was like any other Pokemon Center in Lialta. She looked toward the bulletin board. "Taurinno City News" was posted in big, bubbly letters. In front of the board, a man was throwing tantrum, tearing down on flyer and plastering another.
Olivia moved toward him, when suddenly..
"WAR!!!" Wake appeared with a crash, spraying bubbles everywhere.
"Calm down," Olivia wrapped her arms around his shell, pushing against the torrent of bubbles.

Marcus turned around at the disturbance. The sight of the woman, who looked oddly familiier, attempting to pacify her Pokemon made Marcus like whoever she was. He looked around for a reason the Pokemon would behave in such a way. He was suspicious and wary, and seeing what happened to Kurtis, he had every right to be.

Wake had finally calmed down. Teleporting was a jarring experience, and she was sure the old Wartortle didn't enjoy it.
She caught sight of the grumpy trainer, who was now gawking at her.
"What are you looking at?"
She already had a hand on her belt.

Marcus frowned. "Sorry. Just, on edge." He gestured at the bulletin he had posted. "There's been some crazy shit going down around here."
He couldn't stop trying to place her face. Where had he seen it? The thought of Kurtis's picture triggered an idea.
He immediately looked away and went to retrieve his Noivern. From there he went through his backpack and pulled out a note pad. He scrawled something on it. Then he approached the woman again.
"I believe we have a mutual friend, as it so happens. Er.. I'm Marcus. Nice to meet you." He handed her the note, still frowning. "He wanted me to give this to you if you came this way." On the note was scrawled "gym leaders = targets watch your back"

Olivia laughed. "No shit, Sherlock."
Olivia approached the counter, placing her Pokeballs on the tray in front of the nurse.
"They've tried to kill me twice in the last 24 hours."

"Makes me wonder what the hell is actually going on." Aden stepped into the Pokemon Center with all of his pokemon safely inside their pokeballs.
"Oh, wait, I'm supposed to know that since - according to Giulia Rossi - I'm the mastermind behind everything? As if."
Clearly he was not in the best of moods either, especially since a colleague had just gotten spirited away by a crazed flying type trainer.
He passed off his pokeballs to Nurse Joy with a half-hearted smile, hoping the pink haired woman would simply take care of them and not try to raise any more alarms.

"And you're sure this is the place to discuss this?" Marcus asked, giving Olivia a look. "Have you SEEN the broadcasts lately?"
Then he sighed, giving up on that point. "Well, they got Kurtis," he remarked. "So there you go."
Then he looked up and saw Aden, who had saved him from a bad fall earlier. Damn gym leaders just went wherever they wanted, forget the price on their heads.

Olivia smiled.
"I used Pokemon Centers when I was in Team Aqua without trouble. If anyone wants trouble, Nurse Joy will take them outside."
Though, the trainer did have a point. She didn't want to hang around too long.
"Hello, Aden," she smirked at the Fire-type Gym Leader. "It's been so long."
She winked at him.
"Care for a battle?"

"If only now were the time, Olivia."
He let out a sigh and put a hand to his head, thinking.
"Can either of you think of any place we could go to talk that isn't likely to be watched or traced in some way? Because honestly I'm out of ideas." |

"Kurtis had a friend. A man named Guy. He seemed like he had resources and ideas -- and maybe a place to hide."
Marcus began sorting through his bag, organizing it. "Unless you guys know of anyone who could shelter you? People who aren't obviously connected to you?"

Olivia nodded. "That's exactly where we should go," Olivia spoke loudly. "Professor Philips' Lab!" She waited for her's and Aden's Pokemon to be ready, practically dragging the two trainers from the Center. Olivia has exited the Pokemon Center |

Aden grabbed the pokeballs and was almost a bit reluctant to move anywhere else - though they couldn't stay here for much longer.
Luckily Nurse Joy was tolerant and not one to suspect as quickly as the media would have her believe she should.
"Right, fine with me."

Mr. Stricker strolled into the Pokemon Center, pulling the Pokeballs from his belt quickly. He kissed a Dusk Ball before placing it on the tray.
"I'm sorry, Xatu. I do know how much you dislike Pokemon Centers."
He handed the tray to Nurse Joy gently.
"Please, my Xatu is very anxious at Pokemon Centers."
Nurse Joy reassured Stricker, and he followed her invitation to sit in the lobby while she tended to his Pokemon.
