friendyousohard | 9th Spell: [Action for Violet]

[She shouldn't be out here. She knows that much. No matter how stir-crazy she was getting inside, she's still sick and she shouldn't be outside wandering around. Fluttershy's going to be furious with her.

And yet, she can't help it. She just desperately wants to be up and about, doing... something. Anything. So she snuck out of their room at the inn in the early morning, and she's now wandering Violet trying to find something to do with herself.

Then the first sparks arcs out from her to the ground. She blinks in surprise, turning to stare at the hand it came from.]

What- [But her question is cut off as another shock leaps out of her, frying the ground again and making her squeak in surprise. Soon, she's turning into a miniature lightning storm, bolts zapping around her again and again as she tries desperately to get these sudden powers under a semblance of control.]

Oh Celestia, what's happening? I can't... control- [A particularly strong blast interrupts her, lunging out in an arc towards any hapless citizens who might have had the bright idea to watch this. Run away!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

It sounds like it could be. I should have a look at them, except that I don't want to risk the Pokegear. I could still short-circuit it pretty easily.

Do you want me to go get mine? I don't mind if it short-circuits or anything...

Well, if you don't mind pressing the buttons for me... It won't help anyone if I make your gear unusable, and besides, I don't want to damage your things.

It wouldn't be your fault if it got damaged... besides, I care more about you than any things.

[And thus she bounds off to go inside for the gear.]

[Twilight considers following her, but she's not entirely sure she trusts herself inside with these new powers just yet. Instead she stays where she is, trying to channel them a bit.

When Shy comes back, Twilight will be holding a little cat's cradle of electricity in between her hands.]

[And so she returns, Pokegear in hand. She blinks to see the odd bundle of electrics.]

Oh no, did the jam jar lid come off?

Huh? [She blinks at Fluttershy a couple times before realizing what she's talking about.]

Oh, no, I'm trying to actually get some control over this. I mean, if I can use it properly, it ought to be pretty handy, right?

Oh... okay... I guess that'd be good.

[She holds up the Pokegear, trying to scroll through messages.]

They're all such weird posts...

How so?

[She forces the energy back down and walks over to look over Fluttershy's shoulder. Her proximity starts causing some of Shy's hair to stand on end.]

[Not that she minds, of course.]

This one has different hair... This one has colored skin... And this one has scaled!

Wow, that's... that's bizarre. All that happened to me aside from the usual sickness symptoms was the muscle spasms and the random fluctuations in energy.

At least, until today.

It sounds like a lot of people are changing... what could it be? A big spell?

If it is, I want to find out how whoever is behind it is using magic.

[She thinks it over a bit.] Well, given that this is Johto, it's likely that Pokemon are involved... maybe a Legendary?

Maybe it was an accident... that poor Pokemon.

How could a Pokemon accidentally infect so many people with a disease like this?

... Then again, how could a Pokemon do it deliberately, either?

there's still so much we don't understand about this place...

To say the least. I thought I was lost when Suicune, Entei, and Raikou showed up, but-

[She suddenly stops there, her eyes widening as an idea hits her.] Wait a minute... Fluttershy, are there any other reports of sudden powers manifesting?

Huh? Oh, uh, I'll look...

[Scroll, scroll, scroll... gasp!]

What is it? What did you find?

[She leans in a bit closer in her earnest curiosity, causing a static spark to jump from her to Fluttershy.]

They have it! Other people have - ow!

[She winces, cause owww.]

Ah! Shy, I'm sorry, I didn't mean...

[She pulls back again, horrified at what she's done, even if it was inadvertent.]

A-are you okay? [Twi, it was static. You didn't hit her with a Thunderbolt.]

[She nods, rolling her shoulder.]

It was... just a little shock, that's all.

I'm sorry. [She lowers her head and backs up a little, putting more space between them.]

I didn't mean to hurt you.

.. Of course, Twilight, I know you didn't.

[Why are you sad, biffle? It was just an accident.]

You just got... excited, that's all.

I just... touched you.

[She looks down at one of her hands, flexing her fingers.]

And that happened. Whatever is happening... it's incredibly dangerous.
