Ahihaka aimed true! Yes - now she was on top of the battle, on top of the fray, she would come out, she would....... go through? What the -- The Litten makes a confused meep noise as she phases right through the Gastly and lands on the ground on the other side. What just happened? The freezing cold of the gas of the ghost Pokemon makes all her fur go frizzy on end, her ears sticking up straight as she stumbles and slowly turns around. ....Mrraa??Devereux is making an attempt to take deep breaths and calm himself. His hand hurts, and he shakes it out as if that will take care of it. Okay. Okay. It could've been worse, we're alright, we're okay, we're okay... he repeats the mantra to himself for a moment, closing his eyes. When he opens them again, he finds himself in quite a different state altogether - his heart aching for this Pokemon that had snuck up on them. This... was not the kind of reaction he expected. A sad expression, a Pokemon curling in on herself, backing away. Another - oh, gods. She hadn't meant harm. Another abused Pokemon. The fading smile breaks his heart, and he finds his countenance go from something defensive and startled to just... sad.She's gone before Dev can speak up. After a few moments, he just sighs, very quiet, and takes a few steps into the room so that he can sit on one of the ruined server towers that has been knocked over. He takes a look at his palm and winces, Ahihaka very slowly shuffling her way over. She mewls up at him with worry, pressing her face against his leg as she recovers. "I'm okay, sweetheart," he says gently. "Nothing a little fix-me-up won't take care of."Ahi is just leaning on his leg, purring softly for comfort as Devereux carefully fishes the glass out of his palm, tossing the bloody shard back towards and into the husk of the tube. "Ah. There, see? Already better. Now I just... let's see... -- oh!"As the tall man is looking about for a bandage, or something in his bag he might use for the cut, Gastly appears again - to the rescue, this time, it seems!! He watches her with wide eyes as she approaches, and what she drops breaks his heart all over again. "Thank you," he says softly, picking up the mostly scorched kit. "And... I'm sorry. I was startled, but... I didn't mean to make you sad." Dev offers her a little smile as he picks through the... well, its not much left, really. But - aha. There is something. A stretch of gauze - just good enough to tie off as a makeshift bandage. He holds it up so that Gastly and Ahihaka can both see it, and then goes about tying it tightly around his palm. "There we go - right as rain, thanks to you, sweetheart."Dev watches the Gastly for a moment, thinking about his actions, what he could do different. What he could do to help. As he does so, Ahihaka - who has indeed recovered - quietly steps forward towards the wild Pokemon. She keeps her ears perked, and her tail lifted in a friendly way. And once she gets close enough, she sniffs upwards at the ghost, before bunting at the air, meowing. New friend? Misunderstanding?The trainer watches with a smile. "It's pretty lonely here, huh? Real quiet. Lot of change recently. I don't think either of us meant to startle the other. Sometimes, accidents happen. I am very sorry for my words." He looks around the room they're in, and then back to the Gastly. "You're really sweet afterall, you know that? A wonderful Pokemon. Thank you." He pauses for a long few moments, before with a soft noise of consideration, he pulls a Luxury Ball out of his pocket, holding it out to the Gastly. "I'd like to be friends, if you're okay with that. Ahi likes you. And I like you. And I think if we get to know each other we could have a lot of fun. This place... it's going to continue to get lonely. But out in the rest of the world, there's a lot of fun to have, and a lot of new friends to make. And with us, you won't have to be alone - we can have a ton of fun. So... if you'd like - this is a Pokeball. If you tap it... you can come with us. Be a part of our little family? It's your choice - I'd understand if you don't want to stick around us anymore, but... I'd like for you to. You'd be a welcome part of our crew, if you want to...?" OOC: Devereux attempts a peaceful capture!

Night || Clear The nerves of the gastly were shot as she watched the human patch himself up, listening to him and watching the cat... had the litten forgiven her? For causing them both harm? The gastly wasn't sure what she smelled like... but perhaps something like a leaking gas line mixed with dust and rotting wood. Not quire pleasant given she was a ghost type, but not bad either. Just... different. Moist, if anything. The gastly gave a small, shy smile at the cat, nodding that... yes... this was a misunderstanding. She had been alone here for a while, with no one to play with. Even when human and pokemon were here, no one enjoyed her playful nature. After all, they always wanted her to do things, test things. There was no time for fun or enjoyment. It was just... sad. Empty. The other pokemon just as bored and lonely as she was. But now it was different! pokemon could interact and when she saw a human she couldn't resist trying to play a prank... but alas, it had backfired. She turned back to the human and listened to him. He was right on the money. She was lonely. And the chance to have fun, with these two that had forgiven her for scaring them and causing harm, it was like a dream come true! Yes! Yes! Of course she would come! She gave a happy cry as she spun in the air, her gas fully returning as she darted forward and tapping the ball with her forehead. She zapped in and it instantly clicked. She would be happy to get out of this place and play somewhere else and meet new friends! Human and pokemon alike! Almost as if sensing that the pokemon had been caught, the ship's fog horn sounded. Time was up. It was time to leave, unless someone wanted to be hunted down and dragged back. The island, for now, was closed. A Wild Pokemon Appeared!

"We'll have a lot of fun. I promise. Welcome to the family, sweet girl." Devereux runs his fingers over the top of the Luxury ball, before, like the other two, tucking it into his pocket. "And just like that... we have another member to our rapidly growing family." Devereux smiles down at Ahi, flexing his bandaged fingers as he stretches his legs and stands. The hour is getting late. He can tell, it feels like its been a while since he and Ahi came out here. But still... "We'll make sure they're taken care of. But before we go, come on. I want to look around some more. Maybe take some evidence." He has the presence of mind to take his phone out and crank his lantern a little more. It's a good call, because he barely gets a handful of photos in - of the tubes, of the cages, the glass, and the bashed up servers. The bare minimum of what's in the room, as best quality that he can in the dim light. As soon as he tries to go further, leaving the room... his watch starts buzzing with a set alarm. A moment later, the foghorn blares in the distance. "...Shit." Devereux's frown is severe, and Ahihaka meows up at him as he furrows his brows down at her. "I had hoped it wasn't that short. Well... we got what we could. Let's hope its enough. C'mon, Ahi. We have a new team that desperately needs some attention and healthcare. We're... going to need to figure out what to do to help our... special partner. I don't know how a center will deal with them - I'm worried, about what a center will do with them. But they need help."Dev sighs, and gestures his head towards the door. "C'mon. We're on the deadline and the boat is waiting." He picks up Ahihaka - both for his own comfort, and because he doesn't want her to step on glass now that he knows its there - and the two of them begin the journey back to the dock... ||FINISHED||
