Description Eyyy, finally got all of the story for mission 5 written, so now I only got two (out of three) drawings left! Let's get to it~
*Update: I FORGOT ABOUT RORY'S LEG BEING INJURED! So I went and added it ;u;

-----------------------

"I love you, Norah." That sentence, as well as the realization she has had about her feelings towards Annabelle, has been bothering Norah ever since she woke up from her dream-state. How didn't she notice this earlier? Why couldn't she had known how she truly felt about Annabelle back when she was with her? Why was this bothering her so much? Norah, with her bowtie now pocketed away, was so lost in thought that she didn't notice how the scenery had changed from the facility the Moon Pool was in, to the mansion where they currently are planning their next moves in.

Seeing how unfocused Norah was, Wren came over to her and asked if she was feeling alright. When he got no response, he tapped her on her shoulder, which snapped her out of her thoughts.

"Hey, you doing alright there?" Wren asked the Scraggy as said pokemon blinked twice at him.

"Uh.. Yeah. Just, a little..." Norah looked at the floor, trying to find some excuse for her unfocused state. "Tired. You know, from the dream/nightmare situation most of us were in. But I don't want to miss out on this mission because of it."

The Rattata nodded, understanding that there would most likely be some on edge or tired after what they just experienced. Case in point with how Nuri and Jay are behaving right now. But because of it, he knew that he couldn't let her go out there alone in the mission.

"It's understandable. Though, it would be for the best if you tagged along with another team on this mission. With the things we're doing and the info we're trying to find out, I doubt there wont be anyone trying to attack us. So going alone while feeling tired isn't the smartest move right now." Wren said before looking over at the other Ardent Cinders teams.

Norah was looking at the other teams as well, though feeling a little nervous for once. She doesn't really want anyone to deal with her and how she's currently feeling, but if Wren thought that would be the smartest thing for her to do, then she wouldn't argue with it.

"Alright... What is our mission then?" The Scraggy asked as she looked back at the Rattata.

"Our mission is to ask around for some information on Pandora, as well as finding a new leader for Asteria. But like I mentioned earlier, we might be targeted because of that. So, keep an eye out for some pokemon that might try and hurt us." Wren told Norah while glancing every now and then over at Nuri in case she was saying some uncalled for things with how her current mood is.

Norah nodded along as Wren talked, but also noticed how he glanced over at Nuri. Looking from Nuri to Wren again, she understood that Wren was worried about their leader right now and didn't want to occupy more of his time when he could be looking out for her.

"Got it. I will ask some of the other teams if they would'nt mind having me tag along with them. You go on and look after Nuri." Norah told Wren with a small smile, making him nod before leaving to be by Nuri's side once again.

Once he was gone, Norah sighed as she dropped the smile. Who would want to have an unfocused pokemon tag along with them in a mission where they will possibly be attacked? Her thoughts began spiriling again, thinking about her confused feelings and negative thoughts. She tries her best to think about what Nuri told her before they fell into a dream-state, but her thoughts tried to push those words away.

"You alright there?"

The Scraggy head whipped over to where the voice came from and saw a Zorua- who was wearing a red scarf and had his right front leg in a sling- looking at her. She stayed quite as she looked away for a moment before looking back at the Zorua again.

"Uh.. pardon?" Norah asked.

"I was just asking you if you were alright." The Zorua repeated himself as he sat down near Norah, whom then sat down as well.

"I'm... doing fine. Just a little tired from the whole dream thing we had back at the Moon Pool. And because of it, Wren told me that I should partner up with someone just in case we were to get attacked." Norah explained herself before remembering something. "Almost forgot. My name is Norah, from team Gallant. And you are?"

"Rory Day, from team Golden Days. And if Wren told you you should partner up with someone, then I should too since--" Rory stopped talking for a moment to carefully move his front leg that was in a sling. "So, would it be fine if we teamed up? I might not be much in a fight right now, but I can still help out."

Norah thought for a moment, looking around the mansion they were currently in before looking back at Rory and giving him a nod.

"Yeah, that sounds fine with me. Just know that I might zone out at times." Norah tried to warn him, but was only met with a patient smile.

"That's alright. If you feel like that'll be a problem, I can always ask you a random question whenever I see you spacing out." Rory told her, making the Scraggy raise a brow.

"Ask random questions? Like what?" Norah ask, which made the Zorua go quiet for a few seconds before he spoke again.

"Like; What's your favorite berry? Which season do you like the most? Have you ever been on a boat before? And so on. No personal questions needed." Rory explained to Norah.

"That actually does not sound like a bad idea." Norah mumbled to herself before nodding again, this time having a small smile on her face. "If it will help me not to get lost in thought, then why not?"

With an affirmative nod from the Zorua, the two of them stood up and spoke to Wren and Nuri, telling the two that they would team up and head out now to gather information about Pandora and possibly find someone that could fit the leader role better for Asteria.

Hmm, thinking about it now, I wonder if Norah will start to question what to do in this situation. A knight's code is to honor justice, and in this case Tova really did still things and the Pale Roses act as the justice system - it could be a hard call to make when your goal is to become a knight.

Norah would be a bit questionable about what's going on, especially since Tiva did do something that isn't good. But seeing as she's working for Nuri and Wren, she will follow their orders no matter what. Even if it means doing something that's not good (like in the Moon Pool. She didn't question why they needed to take that key from the ghost train, she just did what she was ordered to do). But that doesn't mean that she won't question them about it at some point, especially if it gets to something more drastic than stealing something.

Here's hoping that her convictions hold strong then! As with all Mystery Dungeon groups, things are only going to get tougher from here both physically and psychologically.
