(Demonic Creepy Voice) GRRRRRRRRR!!!!! GET BACK HERE, YOU YELLOW OVERSIZED BELLY PRICK!
...Wow, this rice tastes delicious, Uncle Ben!
...So, who are you, anyways?
Not a friend, I can assure you. He tried to destroy the world!
Oh, relax, won't you? I have no interest in such a thing anymore... In fact, I'm honestly unsure what I'm after at this point.
...Well, aside from beating down a certain purple Pokemon. But let's be honest, who wouldn't? I mean, have you ever MET the guy? He's such an egotistical prick.
...I'm afraid I have no idea who you're talking about.
...Ah, but of course. I should've figured as much...
Hey, Jazz! We've got a problem. I think that the recharge stations are broke-
...It would seem we have some unexpected visitors. Shall I dispose of them?
That'll be unnecessary, Orchestra. You and Techno return to your training.
...Well, it's been fun, but I believe it is about time for you to get back to your little treasure hunt.
Huh? How did you-
It's better if you don't know the answer to that question. Now, please lea-
Hang on. What is that energy I'm sensing over there?
And I have-a-finally reached my-a-breaking point.
I-a-didn't a mean to barge in like-a-that, but he just reminds-a-me of another... stubborn doctor... that I used to know. Although I don't-a-think this one breathes-a-fire...
And just what is it are you afraid of?
What, to scared to swim? ...Or perhaps you don't want to face the consequences of breaking the Master Emerald?
Two pieces of the Master Emerald! But, wait, how did you know they were in there?
Simple: I sensed their energy and compared it to what it emitted from the other 10 pieces... It was an exact match.
Alright, buster, you've got explaining to do!
...Hmph. If you MUST know, I've been collecting artifacts that have been laying around Pumpkin Hill. I became a bit of a collector, as you may tell... So, when I saw the pieces of the Master Emerald, I decided to add it to the collection.
...However. I will let you take them, but only under the condition that you take something ELSE with you as well...
...That scroll was one of the first artifacts I found around here... It was a legend. A legend that told of a legendary tournament... The awakening of great powers, such as the first mortal use of El Blanco... And the banishment of an evil entity who wanted nothing more than to make the entire Omniverse its plaything...
However, it is written in an unknown language, lost and forgotten to time. One that existed even long before the Ancient Languageā¢... I was only able to make up some of its content... But maybe the great Matt knows how to read it...
...I am many things. A "hero" is not one of them. But even so, you MUST protect that scroll, no matter the cost... we may need its guidance one day... Perhaps sooner than we may think.
...Ok. I will.
...It matters not what side any of us are on. Because when the time comes, we must ALL band together... And keep Regulus Grande from having his way.
A likely story... Unfortunately, I prefer to let our actions speak for ourselves!
I won't disappoint, Fort!
