Things weren't turning out as well as Tsumori would've hoped. He planned to waltz into the leader's office, get the answers he needed at thunderpunch-point, and then teleport out before it became too dangerous. However, the head scientist had taken him by suprise and captured him in what he now realized to be a pokeball. But honestly, who could've saw that coming?
"Note to self: teleporting takes a bit of advance notice..." Tsumori thought to himself. He was still feeling weak, but he couldn't deny the fact that the red and white metal sphere was oddly comfortable. What's more, the red half worked like a two-way mirror; it looked solid from the outside, but he could see through it just fine. The view could've used some work, though, as the scientist had picked Tsumori up and stuffed him in his coat pocket. To try and quell the boredom, as well as regain some strength to break out and pummel his captor, the hybrid fell asleep.
"Come out." Tsumori had lost track of time when the order came. It seemed like hours had passed since he fell asleep, but in reality, it couldn't have been more than twenty or so minutes. Regardless, the boy found himself back to his full height after a brief flash of red light. He turned around and stared daggers at the white-haired man, which the man in question parried with his icy expression. Tsumori deduced that some people were born jerks.
"What, am I your little slave now?" The Abra hybrid questioned, trying to make it as scathing as possible. He had a sinking feeling (made worse by a certain book he had read on pokeballs in years past) that violence would get him nowhere in this battle, and that he was correct.
"No. I must keep you here in order to guarantee your safety from the others. They might be opposed to our little deal."
"Deal?" Apparently he had forgotten about his goal in the whole ordeal.
"Yes, our deal. You will stay here and allow me to get as much data as I can. Furthermore, you will assist my men in gathering the rest of the experimental subjects. Your grades in school tell me that you are no novice to scientific study, am I right?"
"Yes, but... How did you get my grades? How long have you had this planned? Wait, never mind that. Why should I help you, who kidnapped me and altered my body without consent??"
"Please, Tsumori," It was the first time the man had called him by name, "I am a fair man. I believe that after I gain the necessary data from my experiment, it will be well within my power to bring pokemon back to this world. However, I must have you and the rest of my subjects before it can be done."
Tsumori could sense that something was off. It wasn't that the man was lying, more like he was covering something up. The boy had the same feeling from the first moment that he heard his voice. Moreover, the question concerning the whereabouts of the pokemon DNA remained unanswered. Tsumori, after hearing his name called by the head scientist, felt as though he couldn't ask it again. He simply had the drive to obey the man's wishes...
Don't be alarmed I'm a friend, My name is Buster, I'm a hybrid just like you. Please tell me where you are, that way I would know how to find you.
A piece of thought shook Tsumori from his contemplations. This particular thought was more purposeful, like someone had shouted their message in the middle of a large crowd. He didn't catch all of the words, but with "Buster" came a unique feeling. Though he did not realize it at the time, Tsumori had just registered Busters mental fingerprint, his psychic signature.
Hello anyone out there, Where is your location, I repeat, Where is your location? I am here to help you, there is need to be alarmed if you here voices in your. This is a method of telepathy. Any hybrids with physic ability, please respond to me stat.
When the thoughts came again, Tsumori responded, "This is Tsumori, an Abra hybrid. I am currently making my way through the hallways... I'm glad to find another psychic here." He figured a spoonful of truth would make the lie go down much better. Hey, it worked with medicine and sugar.
"Is something troubling you, Tsumori?" The dark, cool voice sauntered into the boys ear, and he answered, feeling a foreign emotion he knew as guilt:
"I've made contact with one of the others."
