A/N: I know some people are wondering what's going on with Phantom Star, I realize it's been a while, and I've been asked a few times if it's a dropped story or something. It's definitely not. I just put it on the back burner after GitC sort of came back as that had been on a hiatus because I was just burned out.
Phantom Star isn't always ...
2025-03-17 20:12:40 +0000 UTC View Post“Alright, do you got it?” I asked, and Arcanine huffed, her breath snorting out of her nose as she was ready.
Or at least she thought she was.
I nodded, and we looked down the beach. We’d gotten an empty spot to practice. Arms crossed in front of me, and my Z Ring lit up glowing fiercely!
Arms out, Then back in wrists cro...
2025-03-16 17:00:33 +0000 UTC View PostI’d hung out with Malcolm for a while, but we eventually split up as it was getting late.
Giving me time to look over my updates.
Quick Hacks skill level up!
1 Perk Point Gained.
This was big all on its own. I’d finally managed to get Quick Hacks to 10. That last level up from 9 to 10 was really a sl...
2025-03-14 15:10:14 +0000 UTC View PostWhen I exited the club I was struck with by the image of Sasha hissing and cussing as she actively was trying to breach into the club, despite… No, she was playing more than anything, like throwing rocks at a wall. It would send a message to Yoko every time no doubt, but it wasn’t enough that the defenses started up.
“Sasha?”
“So you’re basically exploring a haunted house?” I sent a very flat look over at Malcolm who from the smirk he was sending me knew that wasn’t what I had said at all.
“It’s an old server.”
“So like an old house, abandoned and alone.”
“Full of old data.”
“Good stuff hidden in the attic.” He add...
I clicked onto the Comm call we were all using as I looked away from rechecking the scope. Check in.
All clear.
Nothing here either.
Same as before.
I nodded and continued to scan the area. It was Section 9’s work day, and we’d gotten a bit of a different gig than n...
2025-02-21 20:01:45 +0000 UTC View PostI ended up following the group to their ripper, in some upstairs clinic. Sam was put into a chair and instantly filled with drugs which had the man relaxing and falling into a listless sleep.
“Thanks again.” Bishop said to me, as we all watched the Ripper go over Sam scanning and looking him over.
“It was ...
2025-02-17 17:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostI kicked my legs as the warm Alolan Sun beat down on me, wind rushing past my face.
This was what it was all about. Blue Heart made a happy rumbling noise as I continued to rub his scales as we flew around in circles, high above the beach.
“I’m happy too.” I told him, smiling as we floated along. Too bad it was probably tim...
It took two weeks to get all the salvage out of my hold, get my missiles and new equipment installed, and do a check on my systems.
Honestly the Shield Emitters were fine, but I still felt more comfortable after doing a check.
I spent some time looking for a quick job just to get us moving again, the Phantom Star...
2025-02-08 17:00:24 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Sorry it's been a bit and my schedule is still completely off. I've just felt like complete Scop (Heh Cyberpunk joke.) this entire week. Allergies, and family drama and more. Has just left me feeling compeletely creatively bankrupt.
Hopefully after this, I'll be able to break my writers block and start feeling better to get back into...
2025-01-31 21:48:35 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Sorry about how long it's been. Things have been a bit... Crazy. Things are starting to calm down in my life, and I'm getting over being pretty miserably sick. I can't promise full schedule return just yet, but I'll work on getting there as soon as I can.

2025-01-25 17:00:54 +0000 UTC View Post“It’s normal for it to take a while.” Nurse Joy once more said and I nodded as I turned back to the machine she’d promised the balls would be delivered through.
I just… Was getting a bit antsy, no reason, it wasn’t like my best friends were being transferred electronically from halfway across the planet through basic...

2025-01-15 23:20:47 +0000 UTC View Post“She’s okay.” Hiromi assured everyone as I sat face down on the table in the back of the club. The cool towel over the back of my head helped, but…
AAAAAAAAAAAAH!
What had I just done!?

2025-01-15 17:00:50 +0000 UTC View Post“So… Captain?”
“Yes?”
“You always do this?” Sin called out and I just threw her a thumbs up from where I was laying under a chunk from the destroyed pirate ship. I was currently removing part of the ship's comm system.
Considering I needed to upgrade the Phantom’s Comms for Electronic Warf...
2025-01-07 17:05:29 +0000 UTC View Post“Alola!” I cheered out as I walked up the dirt path. Jangmo-o at my side practically buzzing as his claws tippy tapped into the dirt. He wasn’t so much walking as vibrating so hard he kept moving forward.
“Alola!” Hala called back, and I noticed he wasn’t alone.
I nodded to Olivia who was seemingly h...
2025-01-06 02:33:41 +0000 UTC View PostThe bar wasn’t the same japanese themed bar I had watched the Violent Hemorrhage play at last time. It was actually more like a dive bar.
Jeez. Were they struggling to get gigs or something?
I shrugged it off as I found a place to park and just settled in. Alice drove slow so I had time, which is of course whe...
2024-12-21 04:02:16 +0000 UTC View Post“You got it?” I asked Hiromi who nodded firmly. I took that as the truth and moved away from her.
Malcolm was already shooting away. He wasn’t using his Shingen since smart rounds were expensive, but a Shigure he had pulled out of his truck.
He was firing away, which I nodded at his accuracy. He coul...
2024-12-20 02:52:14 +0000 UTC View PostI landed in the hold with a gentle exhale as I looked behind me.
Hehe! The pirate freighter that I had destroyed had been a gold mine. Even if most of the components on the ship were trashed, some things had survived.
The glowing Medium Iris Drive the Crabbit were hauling in behind me was exactly what I ha...

2024-12-14 17:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostWith both ships disabled, this fight was mostly over.
But just because the ships were dead, didn’t mean the pirates were.
As the Phantom came up on the side of the overridden pirate freighter, I could already see pirates on the hull of the ship, those that had survived the decompression and being yanked ...
2024-12-10 17:00:17 +0000 UTC View Post“Pfft pfft!” I spit the sand out as I slowly rolled over so I wasn’t just face down in the dirt. “Ugh it’s in my mouf!” I whined.
“Vicky!” Papa was there, and hoisting me up and all that really did was get sand spit into his face as I tried and failed to get more out. “Vicky.”
“Sowwy.” I muttered tongue stuc...
“An Island Challenge?” Papa asked, looking between me and Hala confused.
“I accept.” I said before anything else could be stated, because this was the entire reason I was here!
Well, that and the beaches!
Hala smiled at me, but looked at Papa.

It took a little bit to get Dratini to properly get the move copied to the TM maker. But once he got the hang of it, things started flowing and soon enough we had four TM's with no idea if they were actually different or not.

“I wasn’t really trying to show off there. I didn’t want to really reveal everything, since I’m going to challenge the Elite Four, and I was just kind of tired.”
“Well it was still amazing.” Kukui offered with a boyish grin that had me grinning back. We we...
“Mama!” I called out as Riolu and I raced down the beach. It hadn’t taken long once Riolu was done surfing to find our family.
The three of them were under an umbrella on the beach with drinks in their hands enjoying the surf.

2024-12-02 21:19:27 +0000 UTC View PostAirports were boring.
I kicked my feet as we sat on the seats waiting for our plane to accept boarding. We’d gone through a ton of stuff. Pokeball scanners that inspected our pokemon, full body scanners to ensure no additional pokeballs were hiding anywhere, and we’d had to do some paperwork before all of this to explain som...

Today was the day the annual journey began. When young ten year old trainers headed off into the wilds with nothing but a pokemon and gumption.
It was also something I’d kinda been looking forward to.
