Vol. 2 Chapter 68: You Are One To Talk
"I think that is enough probing for now. Landon needs food to recover his energy," Jolene said, but then held the plate off to one side easily, and pulled me into a passionate kiss. I could see Anabel rolling her eyes off to the side, but I ignored her.
I took a plate from her while returning her kiss, and when our lips parted, she licked her lips. "I hope the food is good."
I stared at the woman's smiling face, and said, "Why?"
"Because I made it."
"Then of course it will be good. This isn't the first time I have had your food," I said, and then started eating, but then paused as it looked like Jolene was about to leave. "Can you tell the other battle junkies to come out? I think that this will be good training for everyone. I can even give Tallia a Super Rare Candy if she wants to join us?"
Jolene shook her head. "She is spending time with Popsicle and your other Pokémon. I think she said something about a hiking trip? I am not sure if she even remembers that it is her birthday in less than two days."
I sighed with a smile. "I still have to think of what to get for her."
Jolene nodded. "Nemona is going to be with her, and she knows her better than anyone. You could also ask that Carmine girl as well. Tallia is always messaging with her."
Jolene closed her eyes, and disappeared into my body.
"I am never going to get used to seeing people just appearing and disappearing into your body. There is something so unnatural about it," Anabel said from behind me, and I turned.
"I know, but we're going to go catch some bad guys and make people see me in a better light, right?" I asked with a smile, but then looked down at my empty hand. The plate had vanished with Jolene, along with my remaining meal.
"Here," Nemona said, and I looked up to see her throw a protein bar at me.
"Thanks," I said, and took a big bite, chewed it down, but suddenly felt like I had eaten two meals.
"Oops! Sorry, I should have told you that these are special Ultra Carb Bars. I got them from my fridge I upgraded, and you just need to take a small bite, and you will be completely full!" Nemona laughed uneasily, rubbing the back of her head. "I was planning on taking a few of these, but if you don't want to feel stuffed, I would eat slowly."
I gave her a sideways glance, and then nodded, putting the rest of the bar into my pocket, since this was from Prisma.
"Well, are we going or not?" Lusamine asked, but stopped. "Is something wrong?"
"Yes, I am feeling a bit tired, but I think that was a side effect from the Tyrantrum. It's like the creature was trying to warn me," I said, and Lusamine tilted her head to the side.
"Do you think that same Pokémon is going to be there?" She asked, and I shrugged, then started to do some stretches as two more lights appeared from my body, forming into Grusha and Iono.
"There is a very good chance it will, but that isn't the only thing," I said, and then stood up and turned to Anabel. "Now it is your turn. Tell us how many convicts escaped and what kind of psychic abilities do they possess?"
Anabel gave a short nod. "From what the guard monitoring this room said, seven people are missing. These seven consist of five males and two females. All are strong psychics and have already escaped. Give me your phone and I will transfer the information to it."
"Thank you," I said, and passed the woman my phone. She tapped a few buttons, and then handed it back to me.
I looked down at the screen, and read over the contents.

"Are these people serious!?" I asked, and turned to Anabel, who was glaring at the ground. "These abilities don't make any sense, and they seem too overpowered. Where in Arceus's name did you find such freaks?"
Anabel looked up at me, and the look on her face said, "You are one to talk", making me roll my eyes.
"Seriously, these people have some dangerous abilities, especially this last guy! I am having serious considerations of even letting the girls come with us now!" I complained, but Nemona grabbed me by the shirt, her skin and clothing burning away to reveal a galactic coating all over her body.
"Are you really trying to say that we can't deal with some normal humans? Even if they have these powers? Are you serious?" She asked with cosmic fire burning in her eyes and the twelve stars shrunk down but orbiting above her head like a halo.
"Can you promise that you won't kill them? I mean, except for that last guy... we could just feed him to a Pokémon, and the world would be a better place," I said, crossing my arms, and glaring at the portal. Someone like that was an actual threat to my girls, but then other people were no better.
"Landon, calm down. These are not Pokémon. They are humans. We all just have to stay together, and deal with things as a group. All you need to do is be ready to catch them. Let the rest of us handle the fighting," Lusamine said, placing a hand on my shoulder, and then leaned forward and kissed me on the cheek.
"We can't forget the other woman. The one called Temptress," Anabel reminded me, and I turned.
"I will watch out, but I have a natural resistance to psychic attacks, and my abilities are much more terrifying than any of the ones described in this list," I said, and then motioned to the portal. "Let's go."
