ride on
Finding the place hadn't been easy. Guzma had been reluctant to tell Sena or Adora anything about it, and they couldn't go to Lusamine to ask, what with Overwatch keeping tabs on her. But Kukui, on the other hand, had been surprisingly forthcoming, although all he'd given them was a vague hint about a hidden door somewhere in the new Stadium.
That had been enough. Searching around the base had netted them a secret door at the seemingly empty end of a hallway, and taking it leads to an elevator down into the depths of the stadium. And that led them to another door...one completely locked up with no visible keypad or lock. The only thing there is an odd camera-like device, and a speaker...the light above it a bright red. They're stumped.
"Greetings, Ultra Rider Zero-One. I have been awaiting your-"
SLAM.
...
...
...
"...Sena, why'd you shut the door?"
"...No, I was just surprised..."

"How're we supposed to get in? Did Lusamine give you some kinda secret key or something?"
"Eh?! W-W-Why would she give me anything like th-"
As if responding to his voice, the light suddenly flashes green, and a neutral female voice sounds through the speaker.
"Ultra Rider Zero-One, confirmed."
"...Eh?"
"Greetings, Ultra Rider Zero-One. I have been awaiting your-"
SLAM.

"Really?"
He's seen her shadow powers, and she's used them in conjunction with her Pokemon before...she was able to contribute quite a bit to all the fights they've had so far.
"You've helped out a lot already...and I've seen what you can do. You're already an experienced fighter, so...I don't see any problem with you taking a slot."
Not to mention you seem like you have a good head on your shoulders to begin with...and it'd help having...you know. An Actual Adult on the team.

"Well...I've had my Pokemon around for a bit longer than you guys, so I don't think it's fair to compare us with just that..."
He laughs weakly. Let's move on from that, yeah?
"Um, anyways, you can meet us at the stadium. Those Overwatch guys have been banned from entering it, so as long as they don't catch you on the way there, it should be safe to meet there."
no subject
Ah. "Ah, I'll see you there then," she determines, smiling gently. "I shouldn't be long, I just need to get some te-"
"HEHHH!!" "Th-THE TEAPOT!!"
..........
"........I'll see you there," she manages flatly, eyes wide as chaos begins to erupt in the cafe.
no subject
Ah.
"R...right..."
AND SO,
Extremely easily.
She's used to travelling in the shadows. Melting down, skirting about- Yuume slips on in and through and pretty soon she's sliding through those shadows to try and make her way through a certain stadium door.
She doesn't entirely manifest until she spots Sena- at which point,
"Ah. There you are."
boo
no subject
he didn't scream
not at all
izu totally got him used to women appearing through doors and everything he's fine
he did squeak a little though
"Y-Yuume! Hey there!"
no subject
"Sena," she greets, nodding as the armor melts off. "...I'm here- I assume where we're going is somewhere hidden in this building?"
no subject
He motions for her to follow him and leads her all the way down the hall. Through the secret door, down the elevator, through the automated locked door ("Ultra Rider Zero-One, confirmed") and motions to the secret lab.
"Here we are...the Ultra Rider base. At least for now..."
no subject
She doesn't say anything though, not to that. Instead she looks around, nodding and taking in the surroundings. "...For now?" she questions, blinking. "Is this a temporary base?"
no subject
"Well, it's at least going to be the base until things get settled with Lusamine and Overwatch, anyway...I don't know if she planned to have it anywhere else."
It'll probably be the permanent base when all is said and done, but better to be safe than sorry.
no subject
Anyway. "Ahh, I see! Well...I suppose I'm here now, but what is it that you need me to do for this to be official exactly?"
no subject
"Well..." Sena walks over to a shelf. It's the one that was full of strange buckles that his Rotomdex zoomed in on during the video. He takes one and holds it out to her.
"This is a Ride Buckle...It's what registers you as an Ultra Rider. When you first use it, it'll assign you a designation and register your information in the system, so...You sure you want to do this?"
He's giving you one last chance to confirm it.
no subject
She slowly takes it, but- "S-She really went all in on the Rider theme..." With a nod, Yuume looks it over- but then swallows. "At the very least, I suppose we'll see what happens but..." .... "...if it's anything like normal clothing, and I have to pull out my armor, it'll override the rider suit..."
no subject
Aha.
"Um...I think the important thing right now is to make sure it works with you, though...As long as it works with your shadow armor, it's fine, right...?"
sena...you don't understand...
no subject
"Do you see what I am wearing right now? Before, I had a poncho on," she continues. She lifts one arm- the sleeves practically skin tight.
"Does it still appear that I'm wearing it?"
no subject
She has a point. If that thing took over her suit, she might not be able to handle the travel. But...
"The Ride Buckle does the same thing, though...so would you be able to even use your powers if it goes on top of that armor...?"
no subject
.................................
"...Activate it...on top..."
Yuume goes quiet.
She seems to be staring at the belt in silence.
no subject
Are you okay. Did he just say something stupid.
"Will it...not work after all...?"
Actually hang on, uh.
"Oh...I didn't tell you the passphrase to use it, no wonder you're confused, right? It's, um..." oh this is embarrassing... "U...Ultra Ride..." it's so stupid...
no subject
"ULTRA- RIDE!"
The light is blinding. It fills the room and fills the vision of everyone there, and for a moment Yuume has vanished within it entirely. A seasoned artist of transformations, swinging her arm outward as the energy floods from the latch. The belt scatters into wisps and petals- reforming around her waist as she spins on the spot. A mere silhouette she is, arms raised upward as the entirety of her becomes a shadow in the light...only to reveal itself as a dusty suit of rose, like a sky at dusk, unseen footwear clacking into place with an audible ring as they touch the floor.
In her hands forms a blade of silvery white- and from her hands can be seen bracers and gloves of the same colour, slowly misting over her form through the dark and light. As she lowers the weapon in a slow circle, the rest of the armor seems to come into clarity as if spirited into place, formed from fog itself; shoulder pads, breast plate, and even boots with pale pink as their accents, ridged and elegant, simple jewels of gold sitting amongst them.
With a shout the blade scatters, arm thrown out to mirror how the other had transformed the belt to begin with- and as it comes back across her head, as if to knock her hat free, as if to brush hair from her eyes, a flowing cloak shines behind her...
And the helmet over her head shines. It is the helm of a true knight, a visor which hides fierce eyes and a confident smile. Yuume, it seems, is no bug.
But she is Certainly a warrior.
no subject
Uh.
Wow.
"I...I guess it works..."
This. This isn't fair, man. How come you can make it look cool and not totally embarrassing?
no subject
"I think...it worked~" She melts into the shadows, and reappears again, still in the suit. "It worked perfectly..! I can still access my shadow, while wearing the suit! Incredible!"
It's super cool, ok,
no subject
Aha ha.
"Looks like there's no problems, then."
