 Cleff will go up to Silver's office some time with Kazumi some time in the morning.

<Silver> It's quiet, but you can see movement through the tinted windows.

 Cleff knocks first.

<Silver> "Come in."

 Cleff enters

<Silver> Kazumi follows behind, a little nervous.

 Cleff looks around.

<Silver> Given that his office here is also his quarters, you see that he's standing next to his wardrobe, sliding on a t-shirt before donning his jacket.

<Silver> "Hm? Good morning, Cleff. What do you need?"

<Silver> He says as he turns to face you.

<Cleff> "Allright you son of a bitch, you've got some explaining to do!"

<Silver> "...I'm sorry?" he looks confused.

<Cleff> "I got my memories back. All of them. I know you took me from Mt. Moon." :I

<Silver> "..Hm. I see. That's what this is about." he sighs. "Well, come on in, have a seat where you like. This is a conversation that's been a long time in coming."

<Silver> He pulls his chair from his desk and has a seat, himself.

<Cleff> "Allright." cleff takes a seat. "I'd like a good explanation of just what's been going on."

<Silver> "A little over two years ago, I got a report from some of my men in Kanto."

 Cleff nods.

<Silver> "They were being tasked with searching for rare and unique pokemon. And in Kanto, one of the rarest kinds, of course, are clefairies. So they had decided to comb Mt. Moon. The report said, basically, that they had been stopped in the midst of capturing by a young girl who could take control of the bodies of others without psychic powers."

<Cleff> "Right, I remember that."

<Silver> "It seems the initiative had already been taken to bring you back to us. You declared you were an alien, so one of the more wily grunts spun a story about being travelers from earth and managed to convince you to come back as an alien ambassador. And I was the one that had to deal with the fallout of that." he shakes his head. "What was I supposed to do, admit it was a lie, tell you that Mt. Moon

<Silver> was just where earth Clefairies live, not another planet? Even if you had believed me, did I have it in me to dash the dreams of an enthusiastic young girl like yourself?"

<Cleff> "Is that about it?"

<Silver> "Besides that..."

<Silver> "You had powers we had never seen before. Abilities that didn't even exist, as far as we knew, until we gathered intel on Kansai. Kazumi was also different from the other clefairies. I've seen time travelers and gods, who would I have been to dismiss your claims?"

<Silver> "But either way."

 Cleff sighs.

<Silver> "We kept up the lie, yes. If you can't find it in yourself to forgive me, I can understand. I can arrange your way home, if you'd like."

<Cleff> "Hnoestly..."

<Cleff> honestly*

<Cleff> "I 'aint even mad." :I

<Cleff> "After all, in the end... we were kind of both right."

<Silver> "Then what was with calling me a son of a bitch?" :I

<Cleff> "I thought it'd get the truth out better."

<Silver> "What will you do, then?"

<Cleff> "I'll be staying with Rocket."

<Cleff> "I do have a few requests now that the situation has changed, but first I need to explain what I mean by we were both right."

<Silver> "Alright, I'm listening."

<Cleff> "As it turns out, this body is of one Kazumi Kujo. She was a little girl who was on vacation to Mt. Moon."

<Cleff> "However, she died."

<Cleff> "A Clefable called Cleffinda traveling to earth got hit by some weird black energy, and her spaceship ended up crashing down on Mt. Moon."

<Cleff> "She was dying. So she used the last of her strength to Occupy the body of Kazumi Kujo."

<Cleff> "The result... was me."

<Silver> "I... see."

<Cleff> "I'm sort of a fusion between the souls of that little human girl and that alien clefairy."

<Cleff> "And afterwards, Cleffinda's body turned back into a Cleffa. That's my sister here, Kazumi."

<Silver> Kazumi nods.

<Cleff> "In addition, the soul and memories of Kazumi Kujo was sort of chained to me as a ghost."

<Cleff> "Marona and Carona helped me talk to this ghost and find out the truth. Then she confined that ghost into me... and now we're one again."

<Silver> "Mm." he's taking all of this in carefully.

<Cleff> "I gained all her memories back. My memories."

<Silver> "That's... good to know at least."

<Cleff> "My parents' names were Josuke Kujo and Linda Kujo."

<Silver> "What are your requests, then?"

<Cleff> "I want some time off soon to see them."

<Silver> "...Very well."

<Silver> "As long as you give notice before you take off, you may."

<Cleff> "And secondly, there's the matter of Marona and Carona."

<Silver> "Yes?"

<Cleff> "They helped me a great deal by doing this for me."

<Cleff> "They're my friends, and I refuse to see a single hair on their head harmed."

<Cleff> "Luckily for you, I picked up some information while I was in their body."

<Cleff> "Thanks to me, they're fairly willing to work with Rocket. Carona is even considering joining."

<Silver> "I see..."

<Cleff> "Marona on the other hand is still scared of some of the darker aspects of our group."

<Silver> "I don't blame her."

<Cleff> "We won't be able to get one without the other."

<Cleff> "However, they're both willing to work WITH rocket instead of under them. As allies."

<Cleff> "Connections, I guess."

<Silver> He looks a bit pained for a moment, thinking.

<Silver> "I understand what you're saying. And I would highly prefer working with them as opposed to anything else, however..."

<Silver> "They're still members of the League. We imprisoned a friend of theirs. If we're exposed, Cleff, and they decide they want to fight against us... I won't be able to order my men not to fight back. Do you understand this?"

<Cleff> "I won't allow that to happen."

<Silver> "Which?"

<Cleff> "Yes."

<Silver> "Cleff, don't play games with me. You can be upfront with me if you wish."

<Cleff> "I'll do whatever it takes to prevent a course of action that would lead us to conflict with Marona and Carona."

<Silver> "Okay, good."

<Silver> "That's perfectly acceptable, then."

<Silver> "On that note..."

<Cleff> "Whether that means preventing them from finding out what they did, rewriting Beck's memory, preventing them from exposing us, preventing them from fighting us, going back in time and replacing Beck with some kind of robot duplicate..."

<Cleff> "... do we have robot duplicates because that would be pretty great."

<Silver> "We don't exactly ha-"

<Silver> <Ooh, that sounds nifty. You'd need my help though.>

<Silver> Celebi winks in from nowhere.

<Cleff> "Hi Celebi!"

<Cleff> "Is this your first time meeting me?"

<Silver> <Hm? I guess it is!>

<Silver> "Can't you even keep yourself linear with us, Celebi?"

<Silver> <Sorry, it's complicated. On that note, the Gardevoir thing with the black holes? That didn't work.>

<Cleff> (damn it)

<Silver> Silver picks up a notebook and crosses something off.

<Silver> <They couldn't UNgenerate the black holes in time to stop the rest of the world from being sucked in.>

<Silver> "I see."

<Cleff> "Have you tried throwing bruce willis at it?"

<Silver> <Chuck Norris, too. They kind of just died screaming.>

<Cleff> "Well we'll think of something."

<Cleff> "What about digletts?"

<Silver> <What about them? And what was your name again?>

<Cleff> "My name's Cleff. Couldn't you get a bunch of digletts to dig apart the meteor?"

<Silver> <Digletts don't work that way.> :<

<Cleff> "Work what way?"

<Silver> <You know, digging through thousands of miles of space metal.>

<Cleff> "What if they were steel digletts?"

<Silver> <Ehhhh... Put it on the to-try list.>

<Silver> The little fairy floats around, considering.

<Silver> <So! According to my calendar, a big fight's coming up!>

<Cleff> "Oh yeah, that thing."

<Silver> "Rayquaza, I take it."

<Cleff> "I thought you meant Landorus."

<Cleff> "I think he might be mad that we're not going to be giving him back his bro."

<Silver> "After Groudon hatches, we'll have both Kyogre and Groudon. I'm fairly sure that will be enough to summon it."

<Silver> <Both of them, actually.>

<Silver> Silver :<'s

<Cleff> "Both of them?"

<Silver> <Yeeep. So it's going to be your best chance to grab Landy for your colonization efforts, Silver.>

<Silver> "Mm."

<Silver> (brb)

<Silver> (Back)

<Cleff> "Make sure those digletts are safe against fire though. You don't want them to burn up from all the heat or something."

<Cleff> "Anyway..."

<Cleff> "I guess we're really gonna have to fight both huh." :<

<Silver> "But do we merely attempt to catch him, or..." he thinks.

<Silver> <Looks like it.> he says to Cleff. <But if you know the future, you can change it with the right efforts.>

<Silver> It's looking at a little calendar.

<Cleff> "You know I've been thinking... maybe we should tell those two a little bit about our plans."

<Silver> "Appeal to Rayquaza directly? If that were possible..."

<Cleff> "I actually meant Marona and Carona. But I dunno, that could be something to think about."

<Silver> <Oh, the ghost twins? Hee hee. They've got a special air about them.>

<Silver> (Derp)

<Silver> (One sec)

<Silver> (Okay back)

<Silver> <But yeah, you'd probably have a really hard time convincing that windbag of a dragon.>

<Silver> The sprite flips upside down in the air.

<Silver> <I mean, sure, he controls the atmosphere of the entire planet. He gets to be a little bit self righteous. But I think you'd be a better Rayray.> He flicks over to Cleff and looks at her. <You have that power, too... Anyone in particular you'd like to replace?>

<Cleff> "I don't know..."

<Silver> <Lemme tell you something though. Meteor or not, the world's going through a huge upheavel. It's no time to be old fashioned, which a lot of my bone-headed kin don't seem to get.>

<Silver> Silver raises an eyebrow. "If this is the first time you've met, why are you speaking so casually?"

<Silver> <Pfft, if I was spoiling something I'd have come and slapped myself by now.>

<Silver> *so casually about the meteor

<Cleff> "Anyway..."

<Cleff> "I think I should try to talk to Marona and Carona and maybe explain this situation to them."

<Silver> Celebi pokes at Kazumi's space suit a bit while you talk.

<Silver> "...Hm."

<Silver> "May as well. They may not believe you, but it may be worth a shot if you're trying to keep them on our good side."

<Cleff> "You think the worst that could happen is them not believing me?"

<Silver> "I honestly don't know, Cleff."

<Cleff> "Well... I'll do that."

<Cleff> "When do we expect the egg to hatch?"

<Silver> "Amerio tried his luck, but nothing happened. We've concentrated some extremely hot sunlamps on the egg, and we expect that's making a difference. I'd estimate three days."

<Cleff> "Are you sure we really want to rush it?"

<Silver> "On the contrary, I think it's healthier than having had it hatch it underwater."

<Cleff> "That's not exactly what I mean."

<Cleff> "If we had more time before it hatched, that'd be more time to prepare for the fight."

<Silver> "I'm going to have Admins Jewel and R with me when the egg hatches. And... I'd like to ask those of you willing to help to join as well."

<Silver> "But other than that, I think our end is prepared."

<Cleff> "Are there a few ice TMs in the store?"

<Silver> "I think we still have some Blizzard and Ice Beam."

<Cleff> "A lot of us have those glaciate TMs from Sophia."

<Silver> <Spoilers, Blizzard won't work on Rayquaza. Its Air Lock ability, enhanced by its legendary aura, makes sure of that. It'll just convert the ice into water.>

<Silver> "...Why didn't you mention this before?"

<Silver> Celebi shrugs. <You didn't ask.>

<Cleff> "I'm guessing there's no way of disabling that ability huh?"

<Silver> <Maybe if you can break the mold...>

<Cleff> "Could something like that really be strong enough?"

<Silver> <I wouldn't expect it to COMPLETELY disable Air Lock... but remove one particular aspect? Maybe.>

<Cleff> "What if we used a bunch..."

<Silver> <Audino.>

<Silver> He shrugs.

<Cleff> "It's worth trying."

<Silver> <By the way, where did you get this suit?> =O <I can sense that it's traveled through time, but you two haven't!>

<Silver> He pokes at Kazumi's space suit again.

<Cleff> "I think... unown gave it to us." (they did right)

<Silver> (Yep)

<Silver> <Oh, those creepy things? Brrr.>

<Silver> <I don't even think time has a meaning for them.>

<Silver> Around this time, another Celebi winks into existance.

<Silver> <Hey, we kind of need you, dude.>

<Silver> <Huh? Oh, I'll be right there.>

<Cleff> "Bye Celebi~"

<Silver> <Sorry, gotta go. I think I'm in a fight in another timeline.>

<Silver> He waves and vanishes, along with the other.

<Cleff> "Anyway... thanks for being honest with me."

<Cleff> "I think I might see if I can find my parents though... this fight might change a lot and... I wanna make sure I see them before it."

 Silver nods.

<Silver> "...Alright."

<Cleff> "Thank you, Sir."

<Silver> "...and thank you. I was worried you'd be furious."

<Cleff> "Well, like I said. We were both right. So no harm done."

<Silver> He grimaces a bit.

<Silver> "Good luck with everything."

<Cleff> "You too."
