Location: laboratory; new zenith tower
Diamante paced around the centre of his lab; biting his finger while Hydrus the Mudkip watched with fascination. He was on edge, more than usual. He had just finished work on a project under the orders Of Opal; who had once again been overly bossy about the situation. Jexak had fallen into a deep depression; still lamenting his lost world. After his adventures, his homesickness finally caught up with him.
Therefore; the Pokémon universe scientist was tasked with making a simulation to give him a 'normal life'. He didn't know how long he'd need to make it. With the way the Nobody was acting; it could be a very long time indeed. Diamante felt bad for him; but couldn't truly understand how one can become so depressed.
Nonetheless; he had developed the starting of a simulation that would take him back to his high school days, based up descriptions of his past appearance and academic skills. He would become part of a club, something where he could write about his problems through his subconscious mind and give him closure while allowing him some happy memories.
Opal and amethyst suddenly happened into the room; the latter holding a tranquilised Jexak over his arm. The Spartan silently placed Jexak into the provided Stasis pod; sighing silently under his helmet.
"Well…sayonara Jexak. It's been a pleasure working with you." He spoke softly, as if saying goodbye to a brother-in-arms. "Hopefully one day you can be back with us."
Opal seemed to show very little sympathy. It was always obvious that she never liked the young man. They got on like chalk and cheese, constantly arguing and trying to one up the other. The others sent their regards though; but they were away at the moment, helping clear some anomalies in the Duel Dimension.
Diamante also added a great deal of extra security; including various arcane blessings. This was mostly to keep a certain heartless away from Jexak's fragile mind. But he had not been seen in a while either. But the stage was set. Diamante set to work at the computer and the controls; flipping switches and writing more code. And it was done. The simulation was active.
But here's a thing about simulations. No simulation is perfect. And code can sometimes go out of control. Diamante had taken a great many details out of anime games, and took some character assets instead of writing a few hours' worth of extra code. One thing to note. Any world could be a simulation, even this one. So the more complex ones are prone to bugs and many other issues.
But Diamante was certain that he would fix anything if it went wrong. His friend's life and happiness depended on it. Even if that friend was a bit eccentric at times.
