Light 'em up (The Calderan Day of Fire)

It's the morning of the 19th and it's clear even to the inexperienced traveler that the city has a different air to it. If it wasn't the atmosphere that got them, then the stalls lining the streets would. Many people are still working on getting set up for the night festival, but the stalls that are complete are lining many corners and they are filled to the brim with bright colors. From afar, the streets look like someone threw a rainbow of paint across the city.

They haven't seen anything yet.

It's not yet time for the festivities so any visitors are free to wander the streets. The natives seem to be delighted if amused at all the people interested in the holiday and are happy to sell anyone as much colored powder as they want. They are glad to explain the fascinating origins of the holiday or even talk shop about what they're planning to show off later in the night. It seems that not even the gloom and unease that might have rolled into town with Union has caused these people to falter with their grandest tradition.

Sometime close to noon is when things change. The natives all kind of stop what they're doing. The colored stalls start to close up and everyone looks tense. Those who visited last year might take this as their cue to get ready.

A long, rattling trumpet sound rings through the streets and that is when all hell breaks loose.

It's every person and pokemon for themselves. Have fun everyone.

[ Ken's genius mind performs some quick calculations, determines the quickest way to extract himself from the situation is to pretend he's been converted, and accepts the bag of powder. This doesn't have to end here. ] Then, I'll make it up to you later.

[ With a big, bright smile. That is only evil around the edges if you squint.

Oh, he'll make up for this, all right. ]
What's your name?

[ A full name? Does that mean these creatures are treated mostly like humans? What a disgrace.

Fortunately, Ken keeps his cool. ]
Ken Ichijouji. I hope you have an unforgettable festival.

[ He'll have to make sure of that himself. Somehow. ]
