victory_road | Project Paradox event log

[With how they're being ignored, Radley doubts it will be too hard not to draw attention to themselves.]

Cool, let's go. Where's the stairs?

They are probably behind these giant doors. Just be careful, these stairs are magical in nature, so it can be very easy to get lost in a maze of stairs changing their locations fairly frequently.

(Thus begins the search for the wormhole in question. Harry tries to follow Hedwig the Noctowl’s flight path as they leave the Great Hall to the doors and begin making their way down the stairs. Dobby even starts running swiftly as he too tries to catch up along with Tonks.)

Furret. Fur, Furret!

[Radley winces.]

Oh yeah, I remember you talking about those. Oh boy.

[Evie hops down and looks around too, calling for the wormhole in Eevee talk.

Radley tries to make sure she doesn't get too far ahead of him as they search.]

(As it turns out, navigating moving stairs, no matter how familiar one is with them or how many times one climbs on them, is never an easy thing. Harry is surprised to see the stairwell he, Radley and the Pokémon are in begins to shift slowly to the wrong way much to his annoyance.

How could he underestimate these stairs at a time like this? And with nobody knowing of how long the average wormhole stays open, this might take a while longer than he would have hoped.)

Oh Merlin’s beard. It looks like we have to take another set of stairs that could take us downstairs faster.

Okay, let's get off of this one quick!

[Radley exclaims, and tries to get back off the stairs before things go too wrong. He picks up Evie so she doesn't get left behind.]

Alright, let’s get out of here.

(So they all get off that stairwell as Hedwig tries to lead a new way out to the wormhole. The Noctowl flies across the ceilings when she finds a new set of stairs for everyone to use. She immediately alerts everyone to the new stairs and Harry goes out of his way to take the group down these stairs as quickly as they can.

Hopefully these stairs won’t move to the wrong area again.)

[Radley is relieved for there to be more stairs, and he hurries, wanting to be as fast as possible.]

Do you see the wormhole yet?

Not a single sighting just yet. But Hedwig seems to know the exact location of the very wormhole we’re looking for. She thinks that might be located not far from this staircase. So we need to run as fast as we can if we want to catch a ride back to either Goldenrod or Olivine.

Good for Hedwig. Let's hope it's still here ... and that some other poor sap isn't coming through.

Right you are. We should get to the wormhole real soon before it could close in on us or bring in another person to this strange world. I think that she might be able to find it in time.

["Eevee-vee!" Evie calls encouragement to Hedwig.

Radley looks around, hoping to see some sign of the portal.]

(Hedwig soon lets out a hopeful hoot, alerting the group and Harry as well that she is able to find the wormhole they have searching for. Plus it is very close to where they are at. So far she didn’t see anyone falling into this world through it which probably means that it is safe to return to the world of Pokémon.)

Oh thank goodness. We’re almost there to the wormhole, it should be very close by now.

That's a relief.

[Radley hurries over to it as soon as he sees it.]

Let's go in at the same time to make sure we all make it.

[He reaches for Harry's hand.]

(That sounds like a smart idea. He hates to imagine getting separated from the rest of the group after being stranded in this weird world for who knows how long. Harry doesn’t think twice as he grabs onto Radley’s hand so they can all go back to the world of Pokémon at the same time as a team.)

Good idea, now let’s get back to the Pokémon world before this wormhole leaves this alternate version of my world. Alright, everyone. Let’s try to jump into the wormhole and stick together.

[Evie cheers them on!

Radley holds tight to her and Harry and jumps in.]

(It must have went into a blur but Harry didn’t have time to to make any second guess as he and his team also jump into the wormhole and they all managed to land on the ground at the other end of it.

He is too nervous to check out the surroundings they are in but the calm and happy sounds from Dobby, Tonks and Hedwig soon inform him that they may have landed in Goldenrod as the sounds from the nearby Magnet Train could be heard.

The travel to Olivine though is going to be the least of his problems when compared to the wormholes and the wild Paradox Pokémon that could be running amok. So far it doesn’t seem to look like Goldenrod has been swamped by them just yet.)

[Radley looks around in relief as he recognizes the surroundings.]

Whew. Home sweet home.

[Evie cheers.]

Well, what do you wanna do now? Are you going right back to Olivine?

Right now, I’m just pretty tired from having to deal with being stuck in a weird version of my world. Plus I don’t have anything too urgent at Olivine or just anywhere in general to attend to right now.

I think that I might need to stay here in Goldenrod for a few days and try not to avoid the wormholes as much as I can.

You're welcome to crash at our place, if you want.

["Vee!" says Evie.]

Wow! That is really kind of you to offer me and my team to come over to your place for the time being, Radley. I normally try to stay at the Pokémon Centre for the most part but I’ll definitely come over.

(Tonks, Hedwig and Dobby all happily cheer on as they chime in to their Trainer accepting a stay at friend’s house.)

Sure! We'll all be happy to have you.

[Radley smiles, and Evie cheers enthusiastically.]

We can go over now, if you want.

(Thankfully Harry had originally planned to stay at Ecruteak City for a few days prior to the wormhole incidents, knowing that it will be a short trip compared to having to go all the way to Mahogony City where he hopes to encounter Pryce in his gym battle someday.

So he does have a bag packed for the short trip already with him when the wormhole to bizarro Hogwarts showed up.)

Oh yes. Let’s get there before another wormhole tries to get us and take us to another alternate world. I really don’t need another crazy trip to another weird version of Hogwarts or England after the first trip.

Let's just hope there won't be any others indoors. That one showed up for us in the living room.

[He rather doubts any place is completely safe.]

Whoa, they spawn indoors as well?!? The one came for me and my team earlier was in front of the Olivine compound I’m living in. I guess that we’ll need to keep a close eye for any of them that could appear at any moment then.

Furret, Furret.

Yeah, we sure will, unfortunately. But maybe hopefully they'll leave us alone now.

[Is there much hope of that? He's not sure.

He starts leading Harry towards the house. Evie skips along singing happily in Eevee talk.]
