Lydia: Good evening, Jenta. After a long news-drought, we have some exciting things to report! Earlier this year, a trainer by the name of Hamako Yamamura was kidnapped from Route 3. Her Group 2 starter, an ekans named Vael, and she were taken by two older trainers known as "Zahir" and "Zhilan", leaving her two other Pokemon with us. A little while ago, we received a letter from Hamako, giving us more information on the recent disappearances than we had before. Here is one of her Pokemon, Mushiko, to read the letter we just received from Hamako.
Mushiko: Thanks. Another abra recently appeared, with a crumpled letter from Hamako. Here it is:
Dear Mui:
Sorry I haven’t talked much, I sort of got sick. I remember telling you my stomach hurt, and I guess it wasn’t just from nervousness – I got the flu. Unfortunately, we couldn’t go into town with me sick, so I was left alone with Zhilan and her Pokemon.
The worst thing was Vael. He didn’t talk to me, but volunteered to go with Zahir into the town. They wouldn’t even tell me what they went there for! I think Vael blames me for letting us get caught, which is so stupid.
I guess it’s not so bad. Zhilan isn’t trying to kill me, though she won’t say anything. I mean, she says stuff, just not important stuff. More like, “are you feeling okay?” She’s nice, I guess, for somebody who kidnapped me. Usually she’s on her cell phone, out of earshot, though. “Work stuff”, she always says.
Her Pokemon aren’t that bad, either. She let them out to help take care of me. They talk to me more than she does, in fact. She has two Pokemon, a dodrio named Trino and a tyranitar named Tara. Trino’s pretty serious about life in general, so he usually yells at me if I don’t drink my soup. Tara makes the soup, ‘cause she loves to cook. She’s a lot nicer than Trino, but sort of gets violent if you act sad.
Anyway, the only interesting news is that I have to cut and dye my hair. I kind of freaked out when Zhilan told me this, ‘cause I like my hair! They’re gonna choose some ugly color, I know it…
Yeah. I gotta go, my stomach hurts. I’ll try to write again tomorrow, when Zahir and Vael are coming back. Maybe Vael will actually talk to me then.
Whatever. My stomach hurts too much to be scared or mad or sad or something.
Your trainer,
Hamako Yamamura
Personally, I'm disgusted at my former teammate for abandoning poor Hamako, but I'm happy to hear she's okay. It was scary not hearing from her for that long - it made me wonder if she got really hurt, or something. But I guess her kidnappers are treating her okay, for now.
Lydia: Yes. In other news, near the time we received the first letter, four other Pokemon disappeared. A trainer in Iikagen City, Rain Skylark, reported her shelgon and horsea stolen by two thieves. They used smoke bombs, leaving little to no sightings of the two. Their voices were said to be "young and quick-sounding". The Pokemon are both female, and answer to the names "Ruby" and "Queenie", respectively. Right afterwords, Lawrence Govan, on route three, reported the theft of his male venonat, Venom, and female shinx, with no registered name. The thieves were different, and other trainers reported seeing two teenagers. Later that day, a bagon and horsea were seen on Sankaku Island, but nothing was confirmed. If you have any information on the disappearances of these Pokemon, please contact the police station.
((Bleh. I realize these disapearances were old news, but I forgot to include them. I'll put up the briefing on the new disappearances tomorrow, if Sammy permits.))
