"He's right." said Seth, coming up closer to the two veterans with Giga in tow. "I could have Giga carry her out if you want, he'd be able to pick her up easily... although that would leave us with one less Pokemon to help out." Giga nodded in agreement, waiting patiently for Seth to give out the order.

Okay, so entering the alleyway does count as an important action, right? I just want to be sure. Or does entering the alleyway automatically mean the player's reached the end and preparing to battle the mystery duelist?

I'll let you post before I post again, Tacos, if that's alright?

{Roy, Monika, Zander} It was quite hard to keep up with Monika on her roller blades. She seemed to be an expert on using them to get around as well, as Paul had to quicken his pace quite a bit to catch up with her. Once he finally got to the entrance of the school, he had to catch his breath a little bit. He wasn't much for physical activity, especially after and exhausting school day. But, nonetheless, the trio had finally arrived at their destination together. As Monika went on ahead, he tried to follow as best he could, trying to stay reasonably close to Roy as to not get separated.

I too hope your grandpa gets better! Please try to have fun this Easter, and don't worry about the recap too much. We can wait.

"Gotcha!" said Seth in response to Adam. He noticed the webs that one of the acolytes was busy making on the ceiling. He'd have to take care of those, as to avoid anyone from getting snared up by them. "Giga, burn any webs you find! Leave the source to me..." Giga did as he was told and started burning any webs he could find with Flamethrowers and Fire Punches. He was in the middle of clearing one with his fiery breath when an acolyte's Ariados jumped on his back and started using Bug Bite repeatedly. He roared in pain as he tried to reach the pesky bug Pokemon to get it off his back. Suddenly,thinking quick on his feet, he jumped and landed hard on his back, crushing his assailant and killing it instantly. The spider's apparent acolyte screamed out in horror as she witnessed her partner being killed, only to be cut short by a knee to her stomach from Seth. The knee knocked the wind out of her, while the following elbow from Seth to the back of her head knocked her out cold. "There that takes care of that." he looked over to the doorway that Lockhart had cleared. He could hear a few more voices emanating from it, but it didn't seem like they were in the said following room yet. If they were to move there it would have to be soon. Real soon. "I'm moving on ahead, meet me in the next room when you're ready!" He said as he went through the doorway.

Seth looked at the carnage that was transpiring around him. What Carissa said was true, but most likely half true. Some of these acolytes were probably forced under Dawn's thumb against their will, but the others might've joined just to save their skins and seize power for themselves. The REAL question was, how to to tell the liars from the truly brainwashed. What Adam had said was also true, they wouldn't get out of her without having to kill a good number of not only enemy Pokemon, but the acolytes themselves. There had to be some way to restrain at least some of them... "That's it! Giga, let's roll out!" he shouted as he send Giga out of his Ultra Ball. "Giga, paralyze any enemies you can, if not, take 'em out!" He knew if he could paralyze some of the people, it wouldn't be enough to kill or cause any permanent damage to them, but hopefully keep them immobilized long enough for them to get out. As he said this, Giga let out a big roar and bolted past Michael and Jory. He immediately got surrounded by three different acolytes and their Pokemon. A Rhydon, a Sableye and Grumpig started surrounding him, their faces plastered with fierce scowls. Seth started running to get closer to his buddy, but one another acolyte caught him off guard with a punch to his left cheek. Once he recovered, he found her trying to bring an axe kick down hard on his head. He reacted fast enough to catch her leg in one arm, leaned in close and punched her square in the face. He let go of her leg as she staggered back clutching her broken nose, then gave her a mean right hook, making her crash hard on the floor, unconscious. Once he got close enough to Giga, Seth could see the Sableye paralyzed over in the corner with who he assumed was its trainer right next to it. The Grumpig was reeling from a hard Thunderpunch from Giga, while Giga had Rhydon in a mean head lock. Since Rhydon was part Ground, there was no way for him to immobilize it. "Giga, Low Kick, then bring it down hard!" Giga did just that, and swept the Rhino Pokemon's leg from under it, then slammed it down hard on the ground. Seth was surprised it didn't break. Giga let go of the poor thing, and it went limp. Whether it was knocked out or dead, Seth didn't know. He looked over at the Grumpig and saw it charging a Psybeam. "Giga, Thunder Wave!" Giga replied and sent a quick surge of electricity at the Grumpig, successfulyl paralyzing it as it dropped to the floor. Seth turned at the others, and shouted. "C'mon, we gotta keep moving!"

As long as it doesn't start mixing in with the main games, I'm fine. Not just the handheld main title games, but if they ever make a new Stadium style or Coliseum style game, they better not have that. I'd lose all faith in Nintendo if they did.

"NOW!" Chaust though to himself. This was the opportunity he'd been looking for! Attempting to take advantage of his foe's unarmed, unbalanced state, Chaust dashed forward as quick as he could toward the enemy and made a horizontal slash towards his left leg, hoping to either cut clean through the limb or at least catch a hamstring.

3v1 and we'll still lose.

Chaust, still somewhat fresh from his fight with those mercenaries, readied his sword, but stayed a small distance away from Holland as he charged towards the Halberdier. He was hoping to analyze the enemy and see if he could fight an opening whilst he was dealing with Holland, and should he find one, he'd use his superior speed to close the gap for a strike. However, if Holland were in danger, he'd go on the defensive and try to deflect the blow for him. For now, he would wait at the ready for his opportunity to present itself.

{Central Square: Klive, Rene, Monika, Blair, Robert, Roy/ Important Action} "Hey, I'll join you. I wanna look for this guy, too. Paul said as he tried to catch up with the boy. From what that girl said, it seemed like this man was the culprit, the one responsible for the death of Mr. Tenjo. Paul definitely wasn't going to give up this chance to find him. Once he caught up with him, he spoke up again. "Name's Paul, by the way. You are?"

Paul hopped off the bus and walked towards Center Square. The bus ride over there had taken forever it, seemed. Every single red light that driver could've hit, did. He must have been able to check his deck at least 20 times by the time he finally arrived at his destination. Still somewhat pissed off at the painfully slow ride, he noticed a group of students nearby, and not just any students. He recognized all of them from class. It also seemed that person from before, Klive, was with them as well. He gave his bag a little tug, attempted to calm himself down a bit, and walked over to the group. {Klive, Rene, Arial, Blair, Roy, Robert} "Hey, aren't you guys from my class?" he said, as friendly as he could muster. He looked over and sure enough, Klive was with them. "Oh, hi again, Klive."

Ugh, I'm really far behind. My schedule's been jam packed for the past 2 days... Sorry for not posting.

As he left Mr. Takeda's shop, and had no idea where Mr. Eppes was at the time, Paul figured he might as well visit to Central Square to kill some more time before heading home. He made his way to the bus stop, all the while checking his deck, Duel Gazer and Duel Disk, making sure all was well in case he got challenged to a duel there..

So, this Professor guy, would he still be at the school?
