"Like Professor Palm we could so use your help right about now."
"Erin?" said Tina, "Professor did you hear that?"
"Yes I did" replied Palm
"Arn't you going to help her?" she asked
"No," he replied, "It was her's and Aiko's decision to go out there despite my warnings. Their on their own and I have no say in the matter"
"What?!" said Tina, shocked, "How can you say that, Erin would only ask for help if she really needed it, and now that she is you decide she has to fend for herself. I won't accept that."
"I understand," replied Palm, "I'm sorry but I'm forbidden to directly intervene in these matters, however I can send you as long as it is your decision."
"Thank you," said Tina, "I'm sorry for getting angry with you."
"That's alright," laughed Palm, "In your position I would have said the exact same thing." With that he teleported Tina and Absol to outside the safehouse.
"Why did you send me here?" asked Tina
"You should know more than the rest that stealth is often the best option in many occasions. Use you experience as a theif to go to Erin in the quietest way possible." replied Palm.
"Okay. answered Tina, then stopped, "How did you know I was a theif?"
"Need you ask?" said Palm, "Remember, you're a ghost type and as such can take routes unaccesable to most, use your powers to get into a good position."
"Are we heading off yet?" asked Absol
"Yeah," replied Tina, "Absol you take the roof tops, I'll go by ground level, and get some practice with my powers at the same time."
"Meet you there." called Absol as she jumped up to the top of a nearby building.
"My turn." said Tina. She went to a nearby wall, "guess it can't hurt to try..." she thought, turning off her watch.
At first she tried to push herself through the wall but to no avail. She decided that this was the wrong approach. Looking back on when she previously phased through things she recalled it felt like she was not really there, like she was nothing but a shadow. Closing her eyes she slowly walked into the wall, trying to imagine herself fading away. At first she simply walked into the wall, but after a second she felt something slip through her. She stopped and opened her eyes. In front of her there was the wall, but it seemed closer than before. Looking down she saw that one of her legs seemed to be missing. After second she realised that her leg was sticking into the wall, with up to her knee buried in the solid object. It felt...good, like part of her was free. With a small sigh she continued to step through. It felt nice, the cold hard wall slipping through her very being.
She emerged from the other side feeling slightly giddy. "I could get used to this." she said and ran off to the place they had fought Team Rocket.
Using shortcuts (and phasing through any obsticles in her path) Tina found herself onlt a few meters away from the fight scene.
"Tina!", looking up Tina saw Absol looking down upon her from the top of a building. As she looked Absol gestured to the south, where Erin and Aiko were in front of two figures in long black cloaks.
OOC: Wow, I leave this place for a day after it was dormant and it explodes! Oh btw Ash, If I'm away and you need to progress the story its fine if you use Tina as long as you stay in character.
I'm looking at the world through a Jaffa-cake filling.....
