Tiger sighed "I don't want to go after any UBs for the rest of the
day. And Mira is in Kan-" he began, but cut himself off when his
pokegear went off. He then answered and saw Mira on the screen. "Oh
hey Mira"
"What do you mean she's in a can?" Ivan asked, before seeing her in
the Pokenav. He standed right next to Tiger. "Hey! Thats not a can!
Where is she?!"
Tiger nodded, and was nearly pushed over by Mel's excited reply.
"Did you find what you were looking for?" He asked Mira kindly, and
looked over to Cyndaquil, who was eating a Pecha berry. Tiger
sighed, and shook his head before replying to Ivan. "She's in
Kanto"
"Oh! Yeah, this old journal," Mira held up the old book. "It'll
help us with the whole 'Aether' situation. A lot. At least,
I hope so, or else I travelled halfway across the world for
nothing."
Tiger nodded, and looked at the journal. "Awesome. I hope it helps
us with what Aether is planning" he said kindly. He then thought
for a moment "hey Elm might have some old research notes that I
made about brainwashed Pokemon. Maybe it could help us out" he said
partially to himself, and looked partially distracted.
"Cool. What's the journal about?" Mel asked curiously, stepping
back a few inches looking thoughtful. "My mom might have some stuff
on mind control.. She's used it on Pokémon before." She shivered.
"I could probably sneak some stuff out."
"Hey Ivan! I'm picking up some stuff here..." Upon hearing Tiger,
Mira cracked a smile. "Johto is literally right next to me.
If you want, I could stop there! And as for the journal, it's about
mega evolution. There's some stuff in here that Aether might be
using, even a little."
Tiger nodded "thanks. I'll tell Elm that you're going to pick up
the journals. There's two" he said kindly and nodded. He glanced
over to Mel and shuttered as well at the thought of brainwashed
Pokemon.
"Sweet. That'll help, too. I'll head out tomorrow. What time is it,
there?" Mira thought for a moment. Mel's comment bothered her, but
not enough so she would ask.
"What?" Mel glanced at Ivan. "Oh. My mom's a bit.. Uh.. Out there?
She's mental. She was working for Team Plasma when I left, so she's
probably got something on mind control." She shrugged.
"Relax. I'm not gonna go all 'evil team' on you." Mel grumbled,
pushing away from the table to approach Lucario. "And I think it's
afternoon? I'm not sure, where's a clock?"
"Over here it's like 12pm, but I got Johto's time still in my
pokegear so around midnight there?" Tiger replied to Mira's
question. He then thought for a moment and replied to Mel. "My
father was a team rocket grunt...which explains Snow"
"I'm dubbing Snow as 'clingy little brother' from now on." Mel
decided, sitting down next to Lucario. "And midnight? mIRA. GO TO
SLEEP, YOURE WORSE THAN ME."
"MY BRAIN IS ON ALOLA TIME. Okay. I'll go to Johto tomorrow, and be
back in Alola... In two days," Mira grumbled. "I'll be fine! I
swear. I had a run in with the 'bikers' but I know how to deal with
them."
