Episode 2: A Rainbow Sparkling in the Sky

[fallers_npcs]

Today marks a momentous occasion for the Fallers. While the Music Festival has begun on the Island, and the Museum of Arts and History are exhibiting a new exhibit, all of the Fallers have been summoned to the Pokemon School for a very important request by their Rotoms.

"Thank you all for coming," said Burnet, standing in the classroom with the children of Ash Ketchum's class. "As you know, we of Alola have faced many challenges here, with the Ultra Holes opening up. Even now, more Fallers appear day by day. That is why, with the recent acceptance of the Totem Pokemon and their declaration, we have decided to extend our request."

Sliding up the chalkboard, there was a huge button behind the chalkboard as part of the classroom slid open to reveal an elevator. "Please, if you would step forward and take the elevator down."

Once downstairs, the Fallers would find themselves in a huge Command Center, filled with highly advanced technology as a Chansey greeted them, with a new crop of Meltan from nowhere. "Chansey!" She exclaimed, pressing a button as a holographic display appeared. Someswhere in the middle of it, the Alola School Children had been clothed in Armor on the way down, and they saluted Lusamine who appeared on the display.

"Alola, Ultra Guardians. Alola, Fallers. I'm Commander Lusamine, of the Ultra Guardians. And I have a request for you all. I'd like for you all, no, I humbly request for you to join the Ultra Guardians in some capacity, to defend Alola and find a way home for you, as well as defend the Island from Ultra Beasts. We are facing a sudden International Crisis of unprecedented levels, and I wish to explain..."

"You've run into these guys before?" asked Adora, who had come along for the adventure. She had her Sword with her, but was dressed in a white-and-gold outfit of her own, which had no protection over the knees. The outfit was reminiscent of her She-Ra outfit but further than that, but it was... kind of familiar. Did she have some trappings among the Horde that she wasn't familiar with? The overall design was scarily like Horde Cadet Armor.

"At least the armor is comfy," she said, adjusting the spandex-like material over her shoulder. "Fred and I are ready for anything. So whose leading us other than Looker and our contacts? Strategy? Deployment points? We are getting radios right?"

"Mmmh. It should hopefully not be too difficult... Provided they aren't akin to the last thief I faced..." Coyote doesn't count though.

Yuume unfortunately isn't dressed in a uniform herself, though it isn't for lack of trying. She did warn Lusamine that it would disappear once she pulled her shadow up for use after all, and thus, away it went; Yuume simply appears to be dressed in her usual armor and goggles, and has apologized to Lusamine at least three times in the last half hour.

"I should at least be able to get fairly close to whatever locations I'm needed- while within the shadows, it's difficult to hear...but not so much that I would be unable to hear and see someone approaching."

Onto another screen flashed Jenny and Tony Stark, the pair sitting in a van somewhere outside the Museum of History as Jessie sputtered. "Theatrics aside, we're looking at a bit of a stakeout first," replied Jenny. "This is less proactive than it is reactive."

"Team Vanillite has a known reputation in Vanillite Town, according to INTERPOL'S database," added Tony on his end, manipulating a few screens. "Thanks to the brilliant information from Courtney's work, Jenny's sources, we're looking at Team Rocket. Kid, what'cha got for me? I know you're hacking, I can see Karen at work from here."

"So that's the leak we detected a while ago," said Looker, amused as his head swiveled towards Spider-man.

Busted.

Peter's more or less focused on his HUD as Karen runs her search through any available database and nearly falls off the window sill when Tony flat out call him out like that.

"Wow. I'll have you know, Call Out culture is toxic." He says before he can stop himself and just shakes his head. "Uh.. so the blonde-or like... strawberry blonde I guess-is Cassidy, and one with uh.. greenish-blue hair?? Is Butch-they're part of Team Rocket-" He glances over in Jesse and Jame's direction. "-like really high up on Team Rocket-and they've been seen in all other regions-recruiting, I guess?"

"Kid that only applies to certain demographics," retorted Tony. "But good job."

"Seems like our intel is confirmed then," said Looker, folding his arms. "Good job Spider-man. You've saved us some trouble and research. Just for the record, stop hacking INTERPOL, we're tightening up our security from the last messy breach."

"I apologize for that, Karen's programmed with the nuance of a battering ram when she's not hooked up to a Stark Satellite," replied Tony to Looker. "Aaaand done. We've got a full 3D model of the area. Piping it in now."

For all the Fallers, they would see a full rendered 3D model of the area, fully able to be manipulated in AR around them. "What you're seeing is a AR Simulation of our target," said Lusamine, as a glowing Rainbow Wing sat in the middle of the room, under tight security. "We'll be preparing a transport for the Rainbow Wing."

"In the meantime, your job as Fallers is to prepare for an all-points entry into the building. No one gets in, no one gets out. Got it? Operation starts in 1 hour."
