Angelo stiffened as the rest of the Pokémon came over, curling his lip back at them. He backed away slowly, his brows furrowed. ("Who are these guys?)" he questioned EV warily. Suddenly, a wave of memory collapsed back inside of his mind. ("Where's Note?")
The black-and-yellow Pokémon's red eyes glared at the Pikachu. Whoever she was, he could already tell he wasn't going to like her.

The pikachu smirked at him, before jumping into Tunes' pocket.
"Note dumped me with these guys for a couple weeks," she replied, leaving out the fact that she had nearly begged the boy to let her stay with them. "That's his sister. And her Pokémon." She looked back at Tunes briefly, before turning to Angelo again. "If Ellie is sick, this girl will help her, and we might as well try, since we're stuck here anyway. Take us to her."

Umbreon snorted at the Pikachu, watching her with disgust as EV conversed with him. He turned to her once she was finished, nodding. ("Alright. But watch out for Team Rocket Grunts,)" he warned, slinking off ahead of them.
Eventually, as he lead them back to the condominium, he dropped back a little to walk next to EV for a moment. ("Can I kill her?") he inquired, almost innocently, nodding back towards Lemondrop.

"Believe you me, Angelo, if I could get close enough to her, I would have done it a long time ago," Vivian sighed. She looked over her shoulder to make sure that Tunes was keeping up with them before looking ahead again.
"Me too!" The little Eevee at her side said, feeling very left out. He looked at the two older Pokémon, a little unsure. He still had no idea who this Umbreon was, but he was not exactly fond of the look he saw in his eyes when he looked at Vivian.

Angelo let out a brief snort of laughter. He continued walking until he heard the little Eevee pipe up, agreeing with the two. He leaned towards EV, whispering, ("And who's this?")
He was curious to meet the tiny team that was Note's sister, but only curious. As soon as he knew their names, he would wish them gone. Especially that Pikachu.

Vivian looked down at the Eevee. "Oh. That's Chance."
The Eevee looked up at Angelo, not bothering to fake a smile. He dipped his head curtly. "Who are you exactly?"
Vivian grimaced, becoming irritated with the tone that Chance was using. She said nothing, however, letting Angelo deal with him instead.

Angelo furrowed his brow. ("None of your business until you get the bratiness out of your voice,") the Umbreon snapped before quickening his pace. Passing around the massive, now shut down, Wi-Fi building, he circled around back until they arrived at a rectangular shaped, simple Condominium.
Angelo scratched the door softly with his foreclaw and let out a small, Umbreon-distinguishing bark. He got to his hindlegs and grasped the door handle in his jaws, twisting it open. He then nosed it open and guided himself inside.

Chance glared at him, his look mirroring one of EV's imfamous looks, and EV smirked as she followed Angelo.
Tunes entered the house slowly, looking around. "Hello?" she called softly, nervous to be entering a stranger's house.

Ellie was lain down on a two-person bed, having a coughing fit when she saw Angelo slink in through the doorway, empty pawed. She almost choked when she saw... EV! She propped herself up on her elbows. Was Note here? How embarrassing! She looked like such a wreck right now... well, she kind of was one. Instead, though, she saw a female Trainer enter the doorway. "..Oh. Um... hello, there..." But... that was definetly EV!
Angelo scoffed at the smaller EV. His expression very much resembled EV's signature glare... Could it be? Anger and jealousy bubble inside of him as he grumbled quietly, "(Keep your rat away from me.)"

Tune's gasped as she saw the girl, suddenly feeling very in the wrong. "I'm... I'm sorry! Your Umbreon led us here!" she said quickly, taking a step out of the room.
EV stared at Angelo, insulted. What had caused that? She looked down at Chance, and when she saw the look on his face, she smacked him across the head. "Wipe that glare off your face."
The little Eevee yelped, stumbling forward, and looked up at EV with wide eyes, hurt. She had never hit him like that before...

Ellie looked down at Angelo curiously and leaned against the wall. "N-No, I'm sorry. I guess Angelo's just worried about me..." she murmured, interrupted by another bout of coughs. "I hope I'm not making you feel awkward," Ellie sighed once she was done coughing, wiping the sweat off her face. "But... where did you get that Pokémon?"
Angelo cocked his ears forward as he heard a slapping noise echo throughout the condominium. He turned around to hear EV demand Chance to wipe the glare off his face. The Eevee looked terribly hurt. What would have made him sympathetic months ago made the Umbreon snort, now. What a mama's boy. He didn't inherit anything from EV.

"Um... That one?" She gestured to EV. "She's my brother's Pokémon." She slowly stepped into the room again. She had always been shy, but she did want to help this girl. She looked pretty sick.
Chance lowered his ears, backing away from her. He nearly backed himself under Ellie's bed before he stopped and slid to the ground with a depressed sigh.
EV stared at him, but then turned to Angelo. "What are you snorting at?" she murmured lowly.

Ellie felt her muscles stiffen. "Who's your brother?" She hoped she didn't sound creepy our stalkerish. Could this girl possibly be Note's sister? She didn't remember him saying anything about having a sister... but maybe they just didn't enter a conversation like that before?
Angelo flattened his ears defensively. ("No offense to you or your son, but I prefer Note's team over this one,") he confessed dryly.

"Um... Eli," she replied. "Eli Akoro." She paused, remembering that she was probably the only one in the world who still called her brother by his actual name "Note," she corrected. "You know him then?"
"...My son?" She stared at the Umbreon in confusion, and then looked at Chance.

Ellie's heart fluttered. This was Note's sister! "Yeah... I know him.." she murmured nostalgically. "How... How's he been? Delilah and Brook really miss Elliot and Don," she said quietly, taking two Pokeballs out of her sash and releasing the Delcatty and Mightyena. With Brook, she released Chris from her Pokéball, too.
Angelo felt unease creep through his pelt. Why did she sound so confused? He'd been so sure they were related some way. ("Umm...") the Umbreon hesitated, now unsure of what to say.
