Nix was struggling to keep her eyes politely open while Hillary gushed about Chuck, when her phone bleeped and made her jump.
Seeing the message from Saleme, she saw it as the perfect chance to get out there and DO something. The abandoned cabin could be nothing, but she was already wound tight and needed to get out.
"Sorry to interrupt, Hill. You know Saleme right? Want to come investigate an abandoned cabin?"
Hillary gestured to her several layers of clothing. "No, I'll stay here. Waaaay too cold for me out there. I'll guard the cabin, alongside Betty."
Nix shrugged, and quickly picked up all of her useful items and her backpack, wrapped up warm and ran out of the cabin, making headway down the path to the ski lift. She soon arrived, and awaited anyone else.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
From outside Salemes window, a number of soft snowballs seemed to fire themselves from nowhere, pelting into the window with a soft whack. When the pelting stopped, there was a smiling face made from snow on the window for just a moment, before the snow slid back down to ground.
"Hello, stranger." A friendly voice spoke from the sofa Woof had just vacated. Catherine sat there, wiping her glasses absentmindedly. She returned them to her face and looked up at Saleme, smiling.
"I don't have long, Edison can't corrupt your camera for long without someone coming down to check why it isn't working. But I HAD to see you. I've been watching Scism. It isn't good."
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Hillary sat on the sofa, flicking through the random channels on the TV. She shivered a little,and turned to see a window ajar.
"Oh, Nix, you must have Beartic DNA." She giggled to herself, before getting up to close it. Settling back into the chair, she sat still, watching the television.
A loud scraping noise from outside the house made her jump.
"Nix.....that's not funny..." She muttered.
She let out a small scream as the door banged open, slamming into the wall on the other side,letting a lot of cold in. She shivered as she stomped to the door to see who was there.
"Nix, I'm being serious, these practical jokes are just...." she looked out the door to see there was no one there. Closing it and locking it, she huffed to herself.
"Damn wind. May as well lock it, no one's coming back her for a while and Nix is surely carrying a key anyway."
She sighed and wandered back to the couch, not noticing that something large and mostly transparent had slid behind the other sofa.

Saleme grinned at Catherine antics before turning to her. “Well I wish to say, we be seeing each other under better circumstances. After all it seems every time you and I get together, we are being chased by a dangerous Pokémon made by Schism” Saleme muttered to Catherine.
“I checked with Josephine back in Sinnoh it seems someone at the main headquarters is digging up reports on the day of the attack on spectre lab specifically she thinks they are looking for the egg I left with you so seems like the company I work for got a mole” Saleme stated.

Casen quickly packed a small survival pack filled with protein bars and trail mix, some neutral flavored pokechow, bottles of water, and a few other things like a pocket knife, a first aid kit, some waterproof fire starter tinder along with a lighter for making fire, rope, and an emergency blanket. Agent Kura had given Casen a crash course in winter survival as the beach boy was more at home in the summer at the beach but Casen caught on pretty fast and of course he carried a small radio beacon that Agent Kura gave him for emergencies which would signal aid to Casen and whoever he was with. With the pack on his back and him in a winter mode outfit similar to This. Casen was ready for his first winter mission ~~~ (Now Loading, Arctic Avenue Act 1) ~~~ Casen made his way to where the ski lift was and saw Nix "Yo!" He called as he gave a wave to Nix |

“I checked with Josephine back in Sinnoh it seems someone at the main headquarters is digging up reports on the day of the attack on spectre lab specifically she thinks they are looking for the egg I left with you so seems like the company I work for got a mole” Saleme stated.
The Detective’s brows furrowed overhearing the conversation. He opened Saleme’s door, nodding his head apologetically for barging in. He glanced over at Catherine. They had never met before, but if Saleme was sharing delicate information such as that the Detective figured he could trust her at least as far as he could throw her. Deandre cleared his throat not really prepared for what he was about to say. You could immediately smell the slight stink of cigarettes on him. “If what you’re saying is true, then I’ve reason to believe Schism has infiltrated the Johto Police Force. My superiors are cracking down on me and some are even pointing fingers at you and Nix,” Deandre admitted.
A long sigh. Deandre walked toward the window and peered outside. The snow wasn’t very heavy, it lightly fell against the windowpane. He made sure to turn his back to the window before speaking, “I’m not sure who to trust anymore. If I begin hesitating, who knows what they’ll do.”

"Ah, Casen, right?" Nix turned and smiled to the beach guy. It was certainly interesting seeing him on a snowy mountain, his usual appearance being one of a permanently beach-ready variety.
"How've you been getting on? Since...you know." She offered. It was comforting to talk to someone who had some idea of what had happened- after all, Casen had fought the Heatran, too.
"Saleme invited you, I'm guessing?"
= = = = = = = = =
Catherine nodded sagely to Saleme. "Loose lips sink ships. We always knew to expect moles."
She pushed her glasses up politely as the Detective entered the room, and spoke. She demurely stood from the couch, and wrapped her trench coat back around herself.
"It's a pleasure to see you in the flesh, detective. I wish it could be under happier circumstances."
She nodded politely with a small smile, her nose wrinkling a little at the cigarette smell. She then looked back to Saleme.
"I'll talk to you later, Saleme. You have places to be, and I won't keep you. Keep safe."
With a small wave to Puppy and Woof, she strode across the cabin floor, nodding politely to the detective as she passed him. As she crossed the room, she faded softly, until she vanished completely, the open cabin door closing on nothingness.
= = = = = = = = = =
"Nix, seriously, if that's you...." Hillary started, as the creaking in the cabin grew louder and nearer.
A flash erupted in the room as she released Betty, her Scolipede, from her Pokeball. It was close quarters, but Betty made her feel safe. Taking a read of the situation, Betty placed herself between her trainer and the noise, hissing.
Something dark flashed across the room, leaving a thick ripped gouge in the wall. Hillary screamed.
"Oh, so now YOU'RE scared?" A voice spoke, a low, growly voice that Hillary....recognised.
"What....where did you go?" She spoke, shaking.
"You don't know? You had no idea? You served me up to THEM like a Kingler on a platter-"
The voice broke off, ending in a long howl. Betty tensed up, ready for battle, as something materialized before her. It was humanoid, but....changed. Coarse black hair sprang out all along the things legs and back, in tufts on its forearms, and in a long black mane which was held back, the fur turning red at the tips.
Hillary gasped and clasped her hand to her mouth as she recognized the creature.
"Oh, no...Chuck..." She spoke, her eyes beginning to tear up.
The creature that was once Chuck stood stock still in front her, his face, arms and torso being the only things that remained human in appearance. His face blazed with hatred, his eyes glazed over. Sharp fangs clenched in his jaws and thick black claws tensed up in his fingers.

Casen smiled slightly as Nix greeted him by name "yep that's me." He hummed as Nix brought up the Heatran incident. She had been there so Casen knew that it was alright to talk to her about it. "I'm cool I guess, still a little bummed about the whole thing, my friends and I have redoubling our efforts to get our pokemon ready to fight life and death style and while I seriously hope things don't go that bad..." He hummed "I've got my guard up and my gut's telling me this little adventure Saleme invited me on is going to be interesting to say the least." He hummed as he looked at Nix "I hope you came prepared for anything because a friend told me there's Wendigos at the cabin and while he said he was joking somewhat. I'm sure something's up there...
~~~
A gallade peered in the window of Nix's and Hillary's cabin. His eyes glowed for a moment then he vanished into a teleport.

As Catherine left the two Saleme sighed. “I wonder how come me and her always cross paths when it got something to do with evil corporations” Saleme muttered before looking over at Deandre.
“So detective I am going to be late if I stick around you coming along or what?” Saleme asked while opening up his pokegear.
At the ski lift Nix and Casen would receive a message sent directly to their pokegears
‘Take the ski lift up without me I’ll meet you at the top’
===================================================================
A white haired young woman was running down a dark hallway clutching a pokeball in her hands as she got to the end of it she span around glaring at the figure that had been pursuing her.
“I guess Vlad is losing his touch, I figured he impaled you permanently” Sophie snapped at the figure as it began to hum and then begin to slowly approach her. “So what are you waiting for finish it!” Sophie snapped causing the figure to wave its arm sharply and send a purple psycho cut shooting towards her direction.
A final scream echoed throughout the hallway until all that remained was silence.
=========================================================================

Nix nodded. "Yeah....I've seen some things. I'm ready to see what else Saleme needs us to see. Just....keep your head up. You're a good guy. This region....isn't right."
She headed into the cable car, and sat down, breathing softly.
= = = = = = = =
Chuck sniffed the air, and Hillary whimpered.
"Chuck....Chuck...why are you-"
"Shut UP." Chuck growled. "When did you get a Gallade? Got some other Pokemon stalking you or something? Did you get him transformed too?"
"What- what are you even talking about?" Hillary spoke, her eyes still full of tears.
Chuck's eyes softened a moment, before he jerked his head sideways, bounding across the floor of the cabin, towards the window. He shot through it, sending glass splintering onto the ground. He took off into the swirling snow, becoming invisible as he did so.
"Oh, Chuck...." Hilary cried softly into Betty's neck. "What did they do to him?"
= = = = = = = = =
"Reports?" Evanna spoke, settling herself into an office chair, clutching a glass of stupidly expensive wine.
"The subject, true to form, went straight to the leaky faucet. He blames her." A clerk spoke, staring at a monitor. There on it was Hillary's cabin.
"Is she dead?" Evanna asked starkly, sipping at her wine.
"....No. He left. Something outside spooked him. He looked at her and started to understand, too."
"We need to up the dosage when he comes back,then." Evanna spoke simply. "Several more doses and he won't know his own name, let alone hers. Cleaning house should be highest priority. And lets look into that Gallade. Boss lady doesn't like spies in her own garden."
"Very well, Evangeline."

"tell me about it." Casen stated as he got onto the cable car and prepared it to have it go to the top then his phone buzzed and told them to get going "guess Saleme's gonna meet us up at the cabin." He stated then he closed the door and had the lift start so that they could go upward
~~~
Meanwhile at Hillary's cabin. The Gallade reappeared at the window. It was Mitsuo Kura's Gallade Garth having been sent by Mitsuo. He hummed as a psychic glow came off of him. "You are in grave danger." He projected to Hillary "it is best you get out of Godin before it is too late. You are being watched and are marked for death. If you need help to get out. Seek out a trainer named Nanko Kura, she will help you leave but you must hurry."

Saleme Pokegear would ring as he and Deandre made their way towards the ski-slop. “Casen geez that guy has no patients…” Saleme muttered answering the pokegear.
“Casen, I’m on my way over to the ski lift right no- who is this?” Saleme asked his seeming confused by whoever was on the other end of the call it certainly wasn’t Casen.
Meanwhile in the ski lift the two would enjoy a merry little trip until it suddenly stopped halfway through. Speakers built into the cart would begin playing as Saleme and whoever was on the phone could be heard.
“I want to play a game with you and detective Deandre. Answer three questions get one wrong and the cable cart on the ski lift snaps” The voice snickered as a video feed of Nix and Casen in the ski lift showed up on the Pokegear.
“Question one what number of girlfriends does Casen have?” The voice asked causing Saleme to frown.
“Two because no one cares if he ever puts a ring on one of them” Saleme stated sounding un-amused this would cause the ski lift to begin moving forward again only for it to halt once more as question two was asked.
