001 - [Action]

[vambraced]

Part One

[Anyone passing by the Battledome might notice a stranger sitting on the ground nearby, quite clearly disorientated as he rests a hand on his head and tries to make sense of what on earth had just happened to him. Where was he? What was this domed building all about? Why was he half-naked?! Aside from that he was obviously alone here with no sign of Hanpan, Rudy or the princess anywhere in sight.

Luckily, it didn't take long for Jack to spot his clothes neatly piled up beside him, though he had to wonder why whoever had done this to him had bothered to strip him of his clothes, only to leave them right next to him. There was a book sitting on top of it too. An explanation, perhaps? It's when he clothes himself that he realises there's something else odd about this situation. No... odd about him. Before donning his coat, he reaches behind him and realises that he's suddenly sprouted wings!]

...what the hell?!

[They were definitely real... and lead him to test the rest of his body for any sudden additional appendages, though he doesn't find anything else out of the ordinary. Well, nothing aside from the fact that everything he was carrying, including his sword, has also gone missing. Great. Now he was lost, confused and unarmed all at once.]

Part Two

[Later in the day, after giving the book a look over, Jack heads into the nearby village, noting all the rest of the people here who seem to have sprouted wings. Following the paths leads him past rows of houses, over a river and eventually into a town. At least he should be able to find supplies here, hopefully make some money too.

...he was about to head into the weapons shop to see if he could find something suitable, but becomes sidetracked by the bar there. After everything that had happened? A drink might be good right about now.]

(OOC: Feel free to meet him by the Battledome, in Good Spirits, or anywhere in between!)

Good Spirits

[swordprincess]

[It's just another mundane shift at Good Spirits when Karla spots a customer she hasn't seen before. Well, time to get to work.]

[Karla approaches the newcomer with a pleasant smile.]

Hello, you look like a new face. What can I get for you today?

[Despite the rainy weather, Rudy's still been keeping up his daily work at the stables. It's a little wet outside, but fortunately he's got his jacket with him. He's just about done for the day, wandering around the square when he suddenly stops, noticing something. Or rather, someone. It's enough to prompt an outright double take from the boy - the sight of a very familiar man walking into a bar.

For a moment, he stares in silence, if not downright shock. It's been two years since he's last seen anyone from his world, but surely he'd recognize that dusty old coat anywhere. He can't just be seeing things, can he?

He'll follow inside the bar, glancing around until he stops at that familiar face. Granted, he could only see him from behind, but... this HAS to be his friend. There's no mistaking it. Rudy approaches a little closer, calling out to the man.]

Jack? Is that you?

[pokeboy]

[ Red was actually heading to the battle dome, knowing how to use it and finding it a better place to train than without any foes (real or not). It's the man's outward demeanour that slows him down (despite being dressed and looking fine otherwise), with Pikachu on his shoulder looking between his trainer and the other guy. ]

Hi. Are you okay?
