[Miror B. is very prepared. It was all put together quite quickly, but he'd tried to consider every variable. Standing at the ready behind him are one of his Lombre -- Lefty -- and a Pikachu. Just in case. Paprika had said something about a Dragonite, after all, and that might end up being an issue. He isn't sure. He held an Ultra Ball in one paw -- another precaution -- and in the other, his Xtransceiver. He glances back at Pikachu.]

Alright, darling; as soon as you see a way to be subtle about it, go ahead and short-circuit her Xtransceiver. Don't want her to teleport away or call anyone, do we? [He grins and turns to Emmet and Proto Man.] I am going to call her up now. We want to get to Nimbasa as quickly as possible after she arrives, so don't stand around gabbing. If all goes well, she won't suspect a thing!

Here we go! Fuhohoho! [He activates the Xtransceiver and waits for Paprika to pick up.] Darling! Paprika. I have had the most fabulous idea. Your Xtransceiver -- You can use it to teleport to the Entralink! Isn't that convenient! Why don't you do that and get out of that wretched desert? I'm sure everyone will be popping up here soon. [Paprika's response: Is there, like, a special teleport-ey button or something?. Miror frowns, annoyed at the interruption.] Yes. Just go to the bit with the map; the Entralink is in the little island in the middle. Touch that and it'll ask you if you want to teleport. You got it? Very easy. [Paprika: Gotcha! Lemme just get my bag, and then I'll...

Miror covers the microphone with his paw and nods towards the gathered Pokemon and Pokemonified people.] All right! Now remember, you can talk to her, it'll seem oh-so-strange if you don't, but I trust no one is going to say anything stupid? [The Xtransceiver transmits a blip noise, and Miror turns to face the teleport pad.] Fabulous, here she comes now!

[Here's Paprika now, still unwittingly an Electric type from Dragonite's Thunderbolt, Xtransciever clutched awkwardly in her stubby little arms and the straps of a backpack almost half her size secured in her tail. She understandably looks a bit confused--the last time she checked, Miror B was both human and in possession of an afro.]

So, uh, which one of you guys is Miror B?

Mhm. [Emmet nodded. Of course, his own plans were to, you know, break away from this group as soon as he could. He had his own plans. His own schemes - more important then just kidnapping a girl.

As Paprika arrived, he gave a short smile, before going back to not-smiling. Hey, he liked being able to show emotions easier. Maybe less people would find him creepy and weird like this.] I am Emmet. I am not Miror B.. Nope. [His tone of voice did sound playful, mind you. Maybe it's just because he's the most adorable Emolga ever, with his hat covering his eyes and his cape of two bugs. Um, Jolt and his Spinarak.]

[Awww, is that a weird squirrel thing in a hat? She is trying mighty hard right now not to comment on how cute and cuddly he looks.]

So are you, like, his Pokemon or something? Or'd you get turned into a Pokemon. too?

((UMM gosh I am tempted to say SCREW ORDER EVERYONE JUST REPLY WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE IT. But that would be needlessly hectic I suppose. I guess Emmet > Paprika > Miror B. > Proto Man?))

Fuhohoho! [Oh, that is an amusing idea, Emmet being his Pokemon.] No, no, Emmet has been oh-so-unfortunately transformed, as well. And you remember Resix from the Castle. [The Spinda gestures towards a Squirtle, then turns back to Paprika.] The Lombre and Pikachu are my Pokemon. And, of course, I'm Miror B. [He grins. This seems to be going well! He surreptitiously slips the Ultra Ball he'd been holding into his makeshift duffel bag -- his scarf, tied around one shoulder. It doesn't look like he'll need it.]

So, bit of bad news; we've been told we can't stay here at the Entralink. [That seems plausible enough.] So we're all headed to Nimbasa City and we'd love to have you along!

[Proto Man just nods and holds out a stubby arm for some sort of handshake. He isn't totally sure of this plan, but he can't blow his cover just yet. And besides, if things go south, at least he'll be there.]

Paprika, right? It's like Miror said, they need the area for- [For what? Just what was Miror talking about?] -uh, orientation. [Isn't this where he came in at?] We don't want to be around for new arrivals.

Yup!

[She nods and shakes his hand with her own little reptilian one.]

So is everyone gonna, like, meet up somewhere else now?

[Miror winces slightly at Proto Man's attempt to elaborate on his lie. He was lucky Paprika was right there or he would have given him a good smack. Fortuitously enough, Paprika seemed to accept the explanation. He gives a reassuring grin.] Yes; Everyone's meeting up in Nimbasa. No one wants to go back to Nuvema -- oh-so-boring a place, Nuvema. Now, let me see your Xtransceiver and I'll... make sure your settings are right. [He holds out a paw expectantly and his Pikachu takes a small step forward, sensing that he should be ready to act.]

[Merrily oblivious, Paprika pulls out her Xtransciever and hands it over, wondering what exactly Miror B is supposed to be.]

Sure! These things are, like, iPhones on steroids or something, so they're crazy hard to use.

[Miror almost immediately drops the Xtransceiver upon being handed it.] Oh, these paws! So clumsy. Pikachu, hold this thing for me, would you, darling?

[Pikachu smirks as he picks up the Xtransceiver with both paws and attempts to stealthily send a Thunder Wave at the thing. It sends off a small spark and crackles as the wiring gets overpowered. Miror raises his arms dramatically.] No! Look what you did! You little electric menace! You broke it! Oh, oh... [He snatches it out of Pikachu's grasp and makes a show of looking it over in concern.] Oh well. You can go through the teleport without it if you go with one of us!

[He grins and gives Pikachu a soft bop on the head with the Xtransceiver before handing it back to Paprika.] Right! No problem! Off we go, darlings! [He changes the setting on his own Xtransceiver to make his destination Nimbasa and hops onto the teleport pad with Paprika, followed closely by his Lombre and Pikachu. Giving Proto Man and Emmet a grin, he presses the button and starts the teleport sequence.]

[Paprika should probably care more, but she simply shrugs. It's not like she knew how to use the darn thing, anyways.]

Eh, it's cool. 'M sure the little guy just got a bit excited, y'know?

[It never occurs to her that as a Pokemon she can probably talk to Pokemon, though, so she simply drags her things over to the teleport pad and waits for Scotty to beam her up.]

[Emmet himself follows, going over to the teleporter with his grin. He knows that this is the perfect time - after they teleport, he'll scurry off. If they find him, he'll tell them he heard something interesting. He didn't wish to be a part of this, when he had bigger plans then kidnapping a girl.]
This will be good.

[Proto Man wastes no time joining them. He was having a little trouble figuring out how these teleported worked, so hitching a ride was the best course of action. Plus, this would let him keep an eye on everyone. Hopefully, the won't get disfigured too horribly.]

Everyone ready? Let's get a move on.

[He just grins as the two members of Team Miror B. join them on the teleport pad. Paprika was cut off from N and apparently really didn't suspect a thing, his two lackeys were such upgrades from Trudly and Folly back in Orre, and -- why, if only they weren't all Pokemon, he'd count the misadventure in the Relic Castle as a total victory.

As soon as Proto Man settles on the pad, Miror presses the button, and, with a quick whirring noise, the group is transported to Nimbasa.]

((OKAY SO UMMM. Should I make another post for Nimbasa? TBH I'm thinking they're just gonna chill out for the most part, with Miror making sure either he or Proto Man is with Paprika at all times. If either of you want to do something specifically in Nimbasa you can go ahead and make a post for it. (I know Emmet has his own stuff to take care of, lol.) In the meantime, Miror B. needs to give N a call... hehehe))

((If you'd like! I don't really have anything much in mind for Paprika beyond her being an incredibly oblivious kidnap-ee.))
