21. Japanese Nightmare Syndrome

Episode 21:We went to Japan\Nightmare Syndrome

Our time on the highway, was comming to and end, the nat guard, was bringing up their borders, and we were starting to get close to being boxed in. Danville was already returning to normal. We were a little bit outside of town, so when we woke up, we got out of there pretty on the road, we started having a conversation.

Phoebe: "Where are we going to go now Cj?"

Me: "I don't know?"

Phoebe: "Home?"

Me: "No..."

Phoebe: "We are going to go home eventually right?"

Me: "Yeah, but, not right now."

Phoebe: "Why not, we're already heros?"

Me: "Yeah but, its just, theres more to do, more things to see, more stuff to fight."

Me: "Maybe we should just go to another country for awhile."

Phoebe: "Like where?"

Me: "Idk, Japan, Europe, Asia, South America, take your pick..."

Phoebe: "What about Japan?"

You know, I always wanted to go to Japan, nice cars, nice women, never got the opportunity.

Me: "Then again, how the hell are we supposed to get there? I can't fly a plane."

Phoebe: "Yeah, its to far away for me to teleport as well."

Me: "Well, then again, I've played flight simulator a few times."

Phoebe: "Is that a game?"

Me: "Yes?"

Phoebe: "Your going to trust a game to teach you how to fly?"

Me: "Well technically its a simulator."

Me: "Then again, we'd have to have the luck to actually find a plane."

Me: "Wait a minute, there was an airport in Danville."

Phoebe: "You want to go back?"

Me: "Well if they have a plane then yes."

Phoebe: "Lets go then, don't waste time."

Me:"I thought you were the one that wanted to go home?"

Phoebe:"I don't really care where we go, as long as we're together."

Me: "Oh, honey."

Me: "I love you."

Phoebe: "I love you to."

So we turned around, and went back into Danville, we found the airport again, the gates were closed, no surprise, but Phoebe was able to open them relatively easily.

Phoebe:"What kind of plane should we use?"

Me: "Well the small ones don't hold enough fuel, go for the bigger ones."

It was then I spotted a USAF C5 Galaxy parked on the runway.

Me: "Woh, look at that..."

Phoebe: "What is it?"

Me: "Its a military cargo plane."

-somewhat excited- Me: "Lets check it out!"

Phoebe: "I don't think the military would appreciate you stealing there plane."

Me: "I don't think I appreciate them trying to kill my pokemon."

Me: "Besides its obviously abandoned, and planes like this, need to be flown on a constant basis, or there engines get messed up, we'd be doing them a favor by keeping it properly maintained."

Phoebe: "Ok fine, but don't get your hopes up, we're not keeping it."

Me: "I know, where the hell would I keep it anyway? I'll just park it next to my parents suv, and apologize for wrecking the yard in the what an entrance."

Phoebe: "Are you sure you can fly this thing?"

Me: "Um...I can try."
So I drove my truck onto the plane and we strapped it down to the floor. The plane was loaded with crates of ammunition, various guns, and a humvee, cool we got a complimentary humvee. I went into the cockpit, after she unlocked the I stared blankly at the vast array of controls.

Me: "Ummmmmm, how do I put the nose down?"

For those that didn't know, on the C5 galaxy, the entire front section or nose, lifts up, allowing cargo of all kinds to be easily loaded into the plane, obviously this had to be closed before we could take off.

Phoebe: "You don't know? Was that not in the simulator?"

Me: "Do you know?"

Phoebe: "Um...no."

Me:"Um...whats this do?"

Phoebe: "Cj don't!"

I pressed one of the several buttons on the control panel, the nose slowly lowered until it sealed tight against the fuselage.

Me: "Hehehee...I figured it out."

Phoebe: "Cj, you could of just killed us."

Me: "By pressing a button clearly marked "Door controls"?"

Please note, I have never been inside the cockpit of a real C5, so please, if for some reason, you have ever been lucky enough to have such an experience, please just let it go, this isn't a story about planes, and this part was a little generalized in that area.

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "Yeah see look, door controls."

Phoebe: "Oh ok."

Me: "Now how do I turn this thing on?

I scanned the control panel looking for some sort of power button while I strapped myself in to the captain's chair.

Me: "Lets see, those are obviously the throttles...theres 4 of them for four engines."

Me:"Um, lets see "Start engines". "

I pressed another button, the engines whirred to life with a loud , the plane's fuel gauges were all full.

-scared- Phoebe: "Cj turn it off!"

Me: "What?"

-almost sarcastically- Me: "Ooooh is someone affraid of flying?"

-scared- Phoebe: "What, no its just..."

Me: "Look just sit down and strap yourself in."

Phoebe: "But where are we even going to go?"

She sat down in the copilot's chair.

Me: "Its got GPS."

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "Lets just go west until we get to Japan."

Phoebe: "So we're going to take this thing to Japan?"

Me: "Yep."

Phoebe: "How are we going to know when were in Japan?"
Me: "When the Gps screen looks like we're over Japan."

Phoebe: "Cj...?"

Me: "Yes love?"

Phoebe: "Don't get us killed."

Me: "I'll try not too."
-slightly over excited- Me: "Attention passengers this is your captain speaking, please remain seated, as we...kick this puppy into overdrive!"

I put all 4 throttles at max, and the plane began to move down the runway."

Me: "Ok honey um help me here you have to pull back on this wheel thing."

Phoebe: "Um ok."

Me: "Wait for it."

The plane was slowly picking up speed, 50mph, 100mph, 200mph...

Me: "Now."

The plane began to lift into the air.

-scared- Phoebe: "Oh crap...Cj...what the hell?"

Me: "So you are afraid of flying?"

Phoebe: "Yes Cj..I'm afraid ok, can we just get back on the ground now?"

Me:" Um...no, I'm not sure if I can."

Me: "Landing gear, lets see

Phoebe: "Cj...what, you don't know if you can land this thing?"

Me: "Um nope..."
Me: "Ah landing gear, there it is."

-crying- Phoebe: "Cj...please tell me you didn't just kill us both."

Me: "Relax honey, theres nothing to worry about. What? Did you forget your powers or something? If anything happens, you can just teleport us out of here."

Phoebe: "Not at this speed, we're moving to fast."

Me: "What? Oh..."

-maniacally- Me: "hehehehehehehhheheeh"

I leveled off, we were flying about a mile above the ground.

I pressed another button to raise the plane's landing gear. I set my heading, directly west, and put the thing in autopilot.

Phoebe: "Cj?"

Me: "Honey its ok, I can slow this thing down anytime I need to."

Phoebe:"Cj...never do this again...never."

Me: "Oh, cmon, its fun."

Phoebe: "No Cj, your scaring me, really badly."

Me: "Oh relax, cmon, just enjoy the clouds."

Phoebe: "Ok, fine...I' ll try to enjoy the few hours of my life I have left before something happens and you kill us both."

Me: "We're not going to die, we got this far."

Phoebe: "Just because you can read labels on buttons, good for you..."

Me: "Ohhh lighten up, we should be in Japan in about 6-8 hours."

Phoebe: "That long?"

Me: "Yeah, I think so."

About 1 hour later.

Phoebe: "Cj I'm bored, I've been in this chair watching these gauges for hours."

Phoebe:"You haven't even touched the controls in an hour, what the heck?"

Me: "Its auto pilot, it keeps the plane flying straight and level, so all we have to do is make sure it doesn't run out of fuel."

Phoebe: "Thats it?"
Me: "Yeah, most of the work is in maintenance, take off, and landing, once your up here, you can just sit back and relax."

Phoebe: "Ok..."

Me: "Look if your bored, just go get one of the DSs in the truck and play platinum or something ok?"

Phoebe: "Ok, it feels a little wierd playing the game that I came from though."

Me: "Yeah it is a little strange, ah well, not much else to do up here."

Phoebe: "Got that right...unless you want to..."

Me: "Want to what?"

Phoebe: "Oh...I think you know."

Me: "Um honey...you know I still have to watch where the plane is going right?"

Phoebe: "But Cj!"

Me: "Honey, trust me, now is just not a good time for that."

Phoebe: "Ooookayyyy, fine."

So she went down into the cargo area and got one of the Ds, she came back up to the cockpit, sat down in her chair and turned it on, a few seconds later, the autopilot shut off on its own, causing the plane to shake a little."
-scared- Phoebe: "Cj whats going on?"

I took the ds from her and shut the wifi off, then I leveled the plane out again and put it back in autopilot.

Me: "No wifi on planes, remember?"

-breathing heavily- Phoebe: "Ok."

Me: "hehehehe, you were so scared..."

Phoebe: "How is that funny?"

Me: "It just is..."

I couldn't help it, it was pretty hilarious, how she was so strong one second, and nearly reduced to tears the next.

Me: "hehehehehehhehe."

Phoebe: "Stop laughing at me..."

Me: "What? Its just funny..."

Phoebe: "Stop..."

Me: "Ok fine, its not my fault your so affraid of flying."

Phoebe:"Cj...just stop ok..."

Well 8 hours passed, it was getting dark, according to the Gps, we were somewhere over Japan, with about 1/4 of our fuel left.

Me:"Well we're here."

Me: "Just got to figure out how to land this thing."

Me: "Oh crap."

Yeah with all the destruction, runways weren't exactly provide with Electricity, there was no light insight. we were flying in total darkness.

Me: "Um honey, we're probably going to have to bail."

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "Yeah, I can't see anywhere to land."

Phoebe: "Cj, I told you, I can't teleport at this speed."

I pulled the throttle down, lowering the airspeed of the plane, to the point where it could barely maintain altitude. I unstrapped myself from the chair and said to her."

Me: "we have a few second before this thing plummets to the earth, so um lets get in my truck, and get the hell out of here huh?"

-scared- Phoebe: "What Cj are you crazy?"

Me: "Lets go cmon, hurry."

Phoebe: "You want me to teleport your entire truck?"

Me: "Can you?"
Phoebe: "Yeah, but it might take awhile."

Me: "Then do it."

We ran down into the cargo area and got in my truck, the plane slowly started to tilt downwords, Phoebe just sat in the passenger's seat with her eyes shut. I turned the engine on, as well as the headlights."

Me: "Cmon baby, Cmon."

Me: "Teleport us somewhere where we wont get caught in the resulting explosion."
-scared- Phoebe: "I know!, just shut up so I can concentrate."

Her hands began to glow, the plane began to fall.

Me: "Cmon honey."

-scared- Phoebe: "Cj just shut up."

Phoebe: "Ok, here we go."

We teleported, to some sort of highway, at speeds in excess of what the speedometer of my truck was capable of displaying.I hit the brakes and tried to keep control of my truck.I was amazed the tires didn't blow out. A giant ball of fire appeared in the sky, as the plane we were in apparently hit one of the buildings, we had escaped just in time.

Me: "Oh crap what the hell?"

Phoebe: "Thats why I can't teleport at high speed, otherwise you end up going the same speed on the other end, if we were'nt in your truck we'd be dead.

Me: "So we were going, the same speed that plane was, in my truck?"

Phoebe: "Yes..."

-excited- Me: "COOOL!"

Phoebe: "How was that cool?"

Me: "Worlds fastest truck -taps on outside of truck door-, right here baby."

Phoebe: "Whatever, your just lucky that it worked, and you didn't get both of us killed again."

-confused- Me: "Again?"

Phoebe: "Banette?"

Me: "You just can't let that go?"

Phoebe: "Nope..."

Me: "Fine lets just figure out where exactly in Japan we are."

Me: "Oh crap I can't read japanese."

Me: "I guess were sleeping in my truck tonight, again."

Phoebe: "Cj, were in a different timezone, its almost morning."

Me: "Well that sucks."

Phoebe:"Like you were really looking forward to not laying next to me."

Me:"What no, its just I'm tired we don't have anything to eat, and yeah I guess your right, I love you honey, I'm sorry for scaring you."

-cutely- Phoebe:"Oh Cj..."

We hugged.

Me:"Well, we made it here, what are we going to do now?"

Phoebe: "Find more people to save?"

Me: "We should probably find a place to stay first."

We kept driving down that highway, trying to figure out what the crazy japanese signs were saying.

Phoebe: "If we could just find another human, I could read their mind and learn this crazy language."

Me: "Is that how you learned english?"

Phoebe: "No I learned english from the NPCs in the game."

Me: "Ok, I'll pretend that makes sense."

Phoebe: "You know in the game world, they actually look like real people? Not the silly 2d sprites you see here."

Me: "What did I look like?"
Phoebe: "Like some kid."

Me: "Ok."

Phoebe: "They also say alot more then they do in the game, except for you, you really never said anything other then attack commands."

Me: "Sounds weird."

Phoebe: "It was, I was kinda worried about you."

Phoebe: "But it turns out you can speak just fine, and your not even a kid, and..."

I slammed the brakes upon discovering that part of the elevated highway had colapsed.

-shocked- Phoebe: "Oh my..."

Me: "Wow, wonder what did this?"

Me: "Well I guess we can't go any further this way."

I turned around, and headed back the other way. We finally found an offramp, and exited the Highway. It was wierd, we were in some metropolitan japan, and yet there was not a single person in sight. I always pictured the city to have much, much more people, but this part of japan, just seemed like another abandoned were alot of cars around, but no people, where did all the people go?, That was beyond me. Everyonce in awhile we drove past a building that was pretty much destroyed by some pokemon before we got here, there was not a single light in the city besides the headlights from my truck, and the fire of the wrecked plane. Slowly, the sun began to rise, revealing an even more horrific scene, dead people, pokemon, and even japanese soldiers were everywhere, All of them lifeless, we were both begining to wonder, if we were all alone in this city.

Me: "See anything living? Even just a magicarp?"

Phoebe: "Um no, nothing Cj, this entire city just seems to be dead..."

A Darkrai appeared out of nowhere, and spoke japanese at us.

Darkrai:" 彼らは死んでいませんが、寝ているだけで、あなたのようにちょうど、悪夢のレルムに歓迎されている"

Me: "What did he say?"

Phoebe: "I can't tell, he is a ghost type."

Me: "Can he understand what we're saying?"

Phoebe: "Probably not."

I stuck my head out of the window and yelled...

Me: "YO! dude , english please?"

He just stared at me, blankly, and then he just vanished.

Me: "Well thats just great."

Phoebe: "Atleast he didn't try to kill us..."

Me: "Lets just keep going, not much to really do here."

Phoebe: "Do you think he killed them?"

Me: "I don't know maybe, but he didn't seem to keen on stopping us."

We kept going down the road, looking for a place to get gas. It seemed like hours that we drove down that road, it was about noon now.

Phoebe: "Cj, does something seem a little off to you?"

I slowed down, and looked at her for a second.

Me: "What do you meen?"

Phoebe: "Cj, whats up with your eyes?"

Me: "Huh?"

I glanced into the rear view mirror, I though I saw something in the back seat, but no nothing was there, anyway my eyes looked perfectly normal to me.I looked at her again.

Me: "What nothings wrong that I can..."

Her eyes were blacked out, like empty voids.

-shocked- "What the fuck is wrong with your eyes?"

She looked into the mirror on the sun visor.

Phoebe: "What Cj? My eyes look perfectly normal...Its yours that are freekishly glowing red like that."

For the record, her eyes were normally a dull red like maroonish, mine were normally blue.

Me: "What?"

Phoebe: "Cj I think something is seriously wrong."

Me: "Yeah I can't even see your eyes, there just empty voids."

Phoebe: "Cause there normally red like yours are now, hehehe, I think Darkrai got us."

Me: "So what does that meen?"

Her skin started to melt off of her bones, bad time to be hemophobic.

-badly scared- Me: "Oh my fucking god..."

Phoebe: "What...what...do...you...see?"

Me: "Your skin, is melting."

Phoebe: "What?"

Me: "Your skin is melting..."

It dripped into a blob of liquid flesh, and disappeared into the floor, leaving only her skeleton.

Phoebe: "Oh crap, so is yours..."

Me: "Well its about time I lost some weight."

Phoebe: "What? Cj that might be a little too much."

So apparently we turned into well, we still weren't dead.

Me: "How the heck am I still alive?"

Phoebe: "We're both still alive, we're just asleep, darkrai must of used dark void on us."

Me: "So we're asleep?"

Phoebe: "mhm..."

Me: "That explains how I can talk without vocal chords."

Phoebe: "Mhm..."

Me: "Dam Phoebe, you got one strange looking skeleton."

Phoebe: "Yours is stranger."

Me: "I still look normal in the mirror though."

Phoebe: "You look like a skeletal freak to me."

Me: "And you look like one to me."

Phoebe: "I still look normal in the mirror as well."

Me: "What if we both look in the mirror at the same time."

I moved the rear view mirror so she could see herself in it.

Phoebe: "You still look like a skeletal freak, and I still look normal."

Me: "Opposite for me."

Me: "Weird, lets just get going, get this over with, so you don't look dead to me."

We got out of the truck, and not surprisingly it melted into the ground with our flesh.

Me: "Oh cmon, first your skin, now my truck?"

Me: "Atleast you still have your personality."

Phoebe: "Ohh Cj..."

Me: "Aw man, thats just not as cute as it was when you had skin."

Phoebe: "What, are you affraid of me now?"

Me: "No, just disturbed, and slightly saddened, and possibly scared for life."

Phoebe: "Me too, but, we'll get out of this eventually."

Me: "Yeah, I thought being locked in a dark void would be much scarier then this."

Phoebe: "Me too, but since you don't seem so scared, I don't either."

Me: "Once again, I've seen worse then this before, its going to take more then this to drive me insane."

-distorted- Phoebe: "Um Cj?"

Me: "Yeah?"

-distorted- Phoebe: "Darkrai is behind you."

Me: "What, oh crap."

He spoke something else in japanese, and dragged me away from her, while at the same time, she collapsed into a pile of bones, and disappeared into the ground.

Me: "Oh what the hell?"

I could only assume she saw the same thing except with her getting dragged away, and me becomming a pile of bones.

Me: "And seriously man, english, speak english, or don't speak."

For awhile, it was total blackness, and then, I found myself, in a little patch of light, strapped to a chair, surrounded by darkness. The light extended to some kind of doorway, and then a shadowy figure appeared.

-demonically- EvilMe:"You affraid yet?"

Me: "Who the fuck are you?"

The figure stepped into the light, revealing itself as me? What the hell is going on."

EvilMe: "Why I am you."

EvilMe: "She doesn't really love you, you know that right?"

Me: "Shut up, I know where this is going, you pose as me, thinking you know all my weeknesses, but what you don't know, is I have a trump card."

EvilMe: "And what is that? Your near insanity?You just have to push it don't you? You lie to yourself, stacking lie upon delicious little lie, and pretend that your problems, that your past, -his eyes glowed red- never existed."

Me: "Bullshit."

EvilMe :"Exactly, thats what it all amounts to, thats all that you are, is bullshit."

Me: "Oh really?"

EvilMe: "You set out on this quest to protect her, your not even sure if she loves you, and deep down, you she doesn't, that shes just an animal, that she is not capable of love."

Me: "But she can talk."

EvilMe: "So can a parrot."

Me: "Let me ask you something."

Me: "If your me, and you just said that I lie to myself, stacking lies upon delicious lies, how the hell do I know, that your not lying to me right now?"

EvilMe" -demonic laughter-"

The Evil copy of me melted first the skin and then the bones, into the floor, and then Darkrai floated up. Yelling at me in an angry for once, he spoke english!

Darkrai: "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Me: "I don't know you tell me, your supposed to be able to give anyone nightmares, you tell me."

Darkrai: "Why the hell isn't it working on you?"

Me: "Because deep down, I already know I'm asleep, that all this is bullshit."

The chains keeping me strapped to the chair broke.

Darkrai: "What the hell?"

Me: "You didn't know I was lucid?"

He tried to chain me down again, but it failed, as I kept stepping towards him."

Me: "You know Darkrai, you are a sick twisted motherfucker, but what you didn't expect, is that someone out there, would be more twisted then you."

Darkrai: "What the hell?"

Me: "DIE!"

Darkrai: "NO...NO!"

He disintegrated, Me and Phoebe woke up, inside my truck, the other people, they started to wake up as well, and were in various states of terror.

-crying- Phoebe: "Cj, is it over?"

Me: "I don't know, I think so."

Me: "Are you ok?"

-crying- Phoebe: "No, it was horible, I thought he killed you, and then, I don't want to talk about it."

I held her hand.

Me: "Its ok honey, its all over now, none of that was real, this is, relax, we're both still alive, we're both still together, just relax."

Me: "Honey...?"

Her eyes turned black again, and her face contorted into some evil, twisted grin, worse then gengar's.

-distorted- Darkrai:Thought you could kill me that easily?, heheheheheehehehhaaaahahahah ahahaaaaaaaa"

Me: "Bastard, ruining such a beautiful face like that."

Darkrai: "Still not affraid?"

Me: "Nope."

I watched as the horible, twisted face of my beloved began to melt, down to raw muscle, then down to bone.

-angry- Me: "You, let her go!."

It got dark for a second, then I appeared in the same room again, still chained to that damn chair. Darkrai hovered in front of me, still very much alive.

Darkrai: "Never, she scares so easily, I'm having so much fun with her, draining her energy, shes making me so powerful."

Me: "And yet you still can't scare me."

Darkrai: "True, true, your not of much use to me, so maybe I'll just leave you here, you'll die eventually."

He was making me extremely angry. Dammit god, if you still give a dam about me, nows the time to prove that you still exist. I was screwed, there was no way out of this little nightmare world, but then something strange happened, the chains broke on there own, I stood up, the twin swords I hadn't seen since my day as a demon slayer hovered in front of me. One represented light, the other, darkness, both with blades made of interlocking pieces of white and black diamond, crafted by angels, and sharp enough to cut through solid steel each one with a hilt of pure sapphire. The blades were fully retractable, meaning that, if they were real,physical objects, they could easily be carried arround in one's pocket. I was given them as a promotion, way back when I made my 21st kill, I hadn't seen them since I was "fired" for excessive cruelty, around my 40th kill.

Darkrai: "What the hell is this?"

Me: "Not hell dumbass its heaven."

I grabbed the swords, pressing the small button on the handle that swung out the blades.

Darkrai: "What the fuck is this?"

Me: "Your death"

I stabbed him with both blades, he screemed in pain and died.

We finally woke up, for real, inside my truck, I thought that Darkrai was just trying to trick me again, so my actions this time were a little different.

-crying- Phoebe: "Cj, is it over?"

I grabbed her shoulders and started shaking her

Me: "Dammit are you real this time?"

-crying- Phoebe: "What of course I'm real?"

-crying- Phoebe: "Don't kill me Cj please."

-panicing- Phoebe: "Stop please just stop, I'm scared please, don't die again."

I got out, went over to her side, and hugged other people around us were waking up, in various states of terror.

Me: "Honey I'm sorry, just calm down, we both saw some pretty messed up shit back there, but its all over, its all over, so just calm down, ok."

Phoebe: "Cj, is it really you?"

Me: "Of course."

I kissed her, unaware that the people around us were watching.

Phoebe: "Did you kill him?"

Me: "Well I had some help..."

Phoebe: "Who?"

Me: "Its hard to explain."

Phoebe: "Oh...I see."

Obviously she was reading my mind again.

Phoebe: "That is kind of hard to explain."

Me: "Yeah lets just get going, ok."

Phoebe: "Ok."

I shut the passenger door, walked back around, and got in my truck random guy started tapping on the window, I put the window down. Although obviously he could only speak japanese.

Phoebe: "I got it, I know the language now."

Me: "Ok?"

Then they both started talking in japanese, and I had no idea what either of them were saying, and it was very, very awkward.

Me: "Uhh? domo origato Mr. Roboto?"

Phoebe: "Cj...seriously just let me handle this."

Me: "Um ok?"

Me: "Ask him where we are."

Phoebe: "Already did that."

And now, since I obviously live no where near Japan, I will start using a few real town names, please advise, my descriptions of these real cities, probably not accurate in the least, and will more then likely be based on what I seen in video games, and movies, so yeah, just enjoy the story, not for accuracy, but for the other things it has.

Anyway, from that conversation, we learned that we were on the outskirts of Osaka, a major city in Japan, although somewhat lesser known then Tokyo. We got directions to a hotel, and explained to them what happened. After that we went to the hotel she got directions to, as people all over this part of the city started to wake up and return to normal.

Me: "Ok where the hell do I park?"

Phoebe: "Um theres a garage there see?"

Me: "Its got a car in it."

Phoebe: "Here, she used her powers to press a button, which made the garage rotate around to an empty."
Me: "Woah, just like in Tokyo Drift."

Yes I loved the fast and the furious series, despite the fact that many innocent cars were killed in the making of them.

Me: "Do you think this truck will fit?"
Phoebe: "I don't know its worth a shot."

I tried to drive it in, it was tight but it fit.

Me: "Ok now how the hell do we get out?"

Phoebe: "Take my hand?"

She teleported us out of the garage.

Me: "Hehehehehe, clever, now no one can take it cause they don't even have enough room to open the doors."

Me: "Its perfect."

Which was good because I left the keys inside.

-cutely- Phoebe: "Thanks honey."

Me: "Oooh your cute you know that?"

Phoebe: "I know..."

Well the hotel clerk was badly traumatized, because of darkrai, and we couldn't get her to get us a room, she just kept muttering the same thing over and over again in japanese, indicating she had probably gone insane.

Phoebe: "Um Cj? Shes crazy..."

Me: "I don't even know the language and I can tell."

Phoebe:"She keeps muttering something about zombies."

-unamused- Me:"Ooookay."

I walked behind the desk, and just grabbed one of the room keys hanging on the wall, took the pen, and signed the ledger in english.

Phoebe: "What are you doing?"

Me: "Lets just go, shes...shes fried, I got a room key see?"

The key had a number on it, the number of the room we would stay in that night, that number was 7, althought thats not really important information.

Phoebe: "Do we have to pay?"

Me: "I don't know, did she ask us too?"

Phoebe: "Um...no?"
Me: "Then lets just go."

Now this part of osaka, unknown to us at the time, had a battle breaking out between japanese soldiers, and various citizens with pokemon, then that darkrai showed up, put everbody in its dark void, which temporarily stopped the sure to be genocidal after I killed darkrai, the battle didn't resume right away, as people were still trying to get over their nightmares, those that managed not to go insane that is, we didn't know how long they were in the dark void, but some of them were affected more then others,so basically, everyone around us was either severely confused or insane, but about an hour or so later, some soldiers raided the tearing through the fragile paper doors, why did they make doors out of paper? I don't know. In our room, we could here them comming.

Me: "Well there goes this idea."

Phoebe: "Should we teleport to your truck?"

Me: "No, they probably have this place surrounded."

Phoebe:" Um..what about that building across the street?"

Me:"Sounds good."

Phoebe: "Take my hand, you know the drill by now."

Me: "mhm."

So we teleported to the interior of the building on the other side of the was some kind of shop, selling various colectibles, pokemon cards, yugioh cards, baseball cards, various memorabilia related to sports, pokemon, and other anime series, some of which I couldn't even recognize, all in Japanese. We took a few seconds to observe our surroundings.

Phoebe: "Oh look Cj, there a card of me!"

Me: "Honey there is a card of every pokemon."

Phoebe: "Oh look theres a machamp card too."

I had about enough of this machamp thing.

Me: "Oh look, a lopunny!"

Phoebe: "Ok that is not funny."

Me: "I know, see how it feels?"

Phoebe: "Ok I get your point."

Me: "mhm"

Me: "Oh crap..."

I could see out the window, that some of the soldiers outside the hotel noticed us teleporting into the store, they were running towards us, guns drawn,while they yelled at us in japanese.I hit the floor, taking Phoebe with me, while letting out CapnMagnum, he didn't waste anytime parylyzing the soldiers, just like he did way back at that roadblock all those days ago, at the start of our journey, we have travelled so far, mere soldiers could not shut us down. Some of the soldiers fired at him, but to no effect, the strong magnetic field he generated, combined with his own steel armor, practically made him impervious to bullets, even AP rounds. Well anyway, after that, we teleported back into my truck, and left the area, it was too dangerous to stay here, too many much fighting going on, we needed somewhere safe, somewhere peaceful, an hour or so later, after carefully avoiding soldiers as well as various rogue pokemon, we finally got out of Osaka. Heading east bound towards Nagoya, on the expressway, when we could, the one thing I knew about Japan was the expressways, Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero for the Playstation 2, was one of the first racing games I ever played, and it was really the game that got me into cars, it was a great game for its time, I lost the disk for awhile, so then I got Tokyo extreme racer 3, which introduced 2 new cities, Nagoya and Osaka, needless to say I was thrilled we landed in Osaka, one of the cities from the game, so from there, and after looking at a map, I decided we would head towards Nagoya about a hundred or so miles away. It was interesting, experiencing 2 of my alltime favourite video games in real life at the same time, of course we weren't racing, wasn't exactly a good idea with the condition the expressways were in, we occasionally saw other cars on the road, but not very often. My truck, being an american vehicle, looked kind of out of place in Japan, even though it was extremely popular in america. And of course, the guns I carried in the back of it tended to unerve everyone we met, as guns were previously banned in Japan, some of them thought we were outlaws, others thought we were soldiers ourselves. Phoebe spoke to them, assuring them that we were neither. I guess what you could call us was vigilantes, we fought for what we were sure was right, and whoever stood in our way was swiftly dealt with, ethically of course, Phoebe, like usual wouldn't allow me to actually kill someone. When we arrived here, we didn't know what to expect, I sort of thought that Japan would of been mostly anihilated, having basically the highest concentration of pokemon per square mile than any other country, but there soldiers did not give up so easily, from what we could gather, some of them had pokemon themselves, strong ones. Atleast the higher ranking ones did, the ones we eluded in Osaka didn't seem to have any. It was a confusing situation, we probably shouldn't have come here, but we couldn't really leave either, the plane we flew here on exploded, and I doubt we would have the fortune of finding another. So anyway, we arrived in Nagoya by nightfall, we fought many battles against both rogue pokemon and soldiers, Japan wasn't as abandoned as the rest of the world, but there was still not nearly as many people as there used to be here, many of the survivors were evacuated to eastern China or Russia, where there weren't nearly as many rogue pokemon. Although those countries still had their borders heavily guarded against wondering rogues, that occasionally tried to cross, some of them got through, water pokemon like sharpedo were quite common in the oceans off the coast of Japan. We heard rumors from some of the locals, that some of the rogues were actually reproducing, we didn't know what to think, but we hoped that the powerful ones would not be able to do so. Anyway in Nagoya, there wasn't as near as much fighting going on, so we found another hotel and stayed there for the rest of the day. We were tired, jet lag and a long day of harsh battles was starting to take its toll. We brought down lots of rogues that day, of varying kinds, ranging from alakazam to torkoal. There wasn't as many people in Nagoya as Osaka, as Osaka was one of the evacuation points, and people were still going through there to catch a boat to Manchuria. Phoebe now knew how to speak in and read japanese, I only knew english, needless to say, she did most of the , now it was about 7:00pm, and we were just about to go to bed.

Me: "Ok you know, we're alone you can stop speaking japanese."

Phoebe: "-undiscernable japanese-"

Me: "Is this some kind of a joke to you?"

Phoebe: "-more japanese-"

Me: "Do you even remember english?"

Phoebe: "Of course honey I'm just messing with you thats all."

Me: "What exactly did you just say to me?"

Phoebe:"Oh...nothing."

-unamused- Me:"Oh really?"

Phoebe:"I said I love you."

Me: "Couldn't you of just said that in english?"

Phoebe: "Fine..I love you."

Me: "I love you too."

Phoebe: "You want me now?"

Me: "Aren't you tired? We've been fighting all day, lets just rest, let the jet lag wear off."

Phoebe: "Can we atleast just snuggle?"

Me: "Of course honey, of course."

I held her close,for a few minutes, until I fell asleep, she eventually fell asleep as well. It was the end of a long day, and neither of us knew what would happen tomarrow.
