23 [Video, sort of]

[niepokonany]

[The video is on, but all it's capturing is snippets of forest at an odd angle. It's also a little hard to make out Feliks's voice about the noise of a Rapidash's hoofbeats. (Here and there, when the Warp Band's camera moves, the Pokemon's mane or side comes into view.]

Waver, Yuuna! I'm going out now!

[He's too focused on his goal to bother sending them any sort of a private message. The whole network can know, see if he cares.]

No. Just the Northern Wetlands and the Marsh. If he's in the Wetlands, you're going to need a lift. I have Kuina ready to go. Rapidash can't cover that much ground in any real speed.

[Almost as she says that, there's a rush of wind above as a freaking jet engine streaks through the sky overhead, and a Dragonite lands a hundred feet ahead of the equine Pokemon on the map. And a second dragon appears in a flash.

Look, she's giving you the chance to be cool and jump onto a Salamence from Rapidash-back.]

[niepokonany]

Good. Good.

[Feliks doesn't even hesitate. He steers the Rapidash as close as he can, then ramps that shit very carefully stands up enough to be able to make the jump. It's a bit of a near thing, but he manages to pull himself up onto the dragon's back, then sends the Rapidash home on the Warp Band.]

Ok, let's go!

[rainsrespite]

[Kuina adjusts her shoulders, rolling Feliks into a spot behind her wings and takes off with a single beat of red against the sea of green. Susume is an instant behind steering.]

Wetlands to the north. I have a third flyer ready for him, a slower one that won't jostle. I sent Howashi to grab Waver, in case we need more hands.

Savior's left tit I can't believe all that looking, and he just wanders on up.

[niepokonany]

He could never do things the easy way.

...I have an Altaria on the Warp Band, she's pretty steady.

[rainsrespite]

Good enough, I was going to send him back on a Golurk.

[Because it has hands.]

[niepokonany]

She's fluffier.

[It seems important to him.]

[rainsrespite]

If she's steady that's fine. I have his beacon locked. Looks like yes, Northern Wetlands. That means poison types.

[Streaking along on dragons yay!]

And I radioed back to the medical ward, they'll have a private room for him ready. He's going to have to be checked out. But there'll be an extra bed for you.

[This she won't budge on.]

[niepokonany]

I can take the poison types around there. They're not that tough.

[Granted, he's not actually willing to admit to anything he can't totally take.]

...Ok. Yeah.

[rainsrespite]

[Yuuna snorts but doesn't comment on that. He can't, they're all 50+ but she'll let him believe he can.]

Just tune your band to the tracking signal, let me know when we're close. Kuina will get you down.

[niepokonany]

[He's thinking of the closer areas of the swamp more than the wetlands, probably because he's spent relatively more time there than in an area where everything could actually potentially kick his ass.]

I've got it on the signal already. Did before I called you.

[rainsrespite]

Good. Just...direct me.

[She's distracted, checking medical bags and sending calls to the facility there to prepare for a potentially malnourished, exhausted individual.]

[niepokonany]

Right.

[And Feliks goes quiet for the rest of the flight, not distracted so much as simply hyper-focused.]
