Participant: Agate only 5-10 posts Instructions Each post must be a minimum of 150 words to qualify. At the end of each post, do a [ proll ] (no spaces), then do a Mod Call to receive a random event to react to. You must react to the random event before continuing on, and roll again at the end of each post, etc. You may find the recipient either when your total combined dice rolls equal at least 200 and you have at least 5 posts, or at the end of your 10th post if you haven't reached 200 by then.
Bicycle... Agate used to want to have one, those racing type and the type that can change gears so easily. He's used riding his mother's old bicycle (that he often dubbed the 'Old Lady's Bike'). It's by no mean a bad bike, but even so, it's not... suitable for him. It's just out of fashion. But even then he know that his family was less fortunate and used it until the day it cannot be used after its chain broke. When you don't have something after you previously owned it, you'll notice just how lucky you were. He... secretly wanted a bike. But upon seeing 1000 P tag on it, his heart sank.
"Oh, you want a bike? Well, I actually have a job for you..."
...It was not something he expected, but he... found a job, a job that gives him a bike ON TOP of 200 P. Agate's jaw understandably just dropped into the floor the moment he heard it. What on earth is Arciel? Deciding to not look the gift horse on its mouth, Agate headed to Route 10, with his new sparkling bike...
The catch is he have to find the guy... so here he is... Let's hope that he'll find the guy. He's going to be chased by time it seems, but that's fine...

A random event has occurred! What will you do? Agate ValynA Sudowoodo has decided that the path you're pedaling down at full speeds is the perfect place to take a nap. Watch out for that tree!

Oh Arceus, ALREADY!? What on earth a Sudowoodo doing here!? It's napping on the middle of a road too! If it's not because its round "fake leaves", Agate probably would have ran it over or something! Agate did not have enough time to pull out any Pokemon and instead twisted the handle of his bike to turn it sideway. He's not going to risk any major accident here! It's not funny if he got any accident! But let's see whether he goes off balance or not?
dpl0P3Rqp_ +Agility (19+5)
By some chance, he managed to dodge the Sudowoodo! Whew! Thank goodness! Agate momentarily stopped to rebalance himself before pedalling once more. He's not going to risk it if he could. At any rate, time to hit the road again, this time with much more comfortable position... He would lost some time if he did not pay attention to the road, it looks like... Did he just picked a hard job?
...He just jinxed it didn't he.

A random event has occurred! What will you do? Agate Valyn You pedal and pedal down the road. The trail winds for a long time, getting ever narrower, and then... it stops dead in the middle of a dry scrubland. Uh-oh. Did you miss a turn somewhere?

...Ugh, he's totally lost. He's supposed to be explorer dangabit! He's supposed to! How come did he got lost on a flat route of all thing! If it's just flat land of all thing! It's not supposed to be a rocket science! Agate turned his bike around. He probably should look for that Sudowoodo who was sleeping on the road just to check where he is supposed to go. This is already tardy, he really can't be anymore so. Perhaps he should pedal slowly instead? But either way... he tossed a Pokeball up, calling up Randgris. The Rookidee wasn't all that pleased being called so early, but she complied. Agate knows how to groom for her.
A cheep from her was all Agate need as a confirmation. He returned back to the main road where the Sudowoodo are, and this time checked his map for better sight of what to do. This time... this time he have to make it or break it! If only he increased his Aura Sight, he probably will have better time in looking for the recipient...

A random event has occurred! What will you do? Agate Valyn You head on down the main road... at least you're pretty sure it's the main road... and it's full of holes? Up ahead you see a Kangaskhan and a Sandslash fighting. The Sandslash is digging in the dirt and the Kangaskhan is slamming the ground with her tail.

Ye lord, whatever happened? Did he somehow turned the wrong way again? This is... this is so embarrassing. Did the Sudowoodo actually moved? Agate had no idea what's going on anymore.... Should he turn back? Should he just... do something about it? Or perhaps... should he just pace himself to the other end? Agate decided that he have lost enough times, more detours would be too much. Time to do something drastic. He licked his lips. It honestly even made the normally calm Randgris a bit worried, but... Agate turned his bike away to a certain distance. The moment he saw that he's about fifty meters away from his target... he would begin his plan...
TO PEDAL THAT IS.
Using all his strength in his pedalling, Agate guided himself toward the zone where the two Pokemon less likely to get him and zoomed away, hoping that he could get enough speed to reach the other end!
6xArgnhRp_ + 25 (STR)
It was just a fluke, but he managed to get to the other side by narrowly avoiding the two of them! Now the question is whether he will be safe from them, whether they'll catch him, or if he'll get lost from that point on? No idea, but god, please make this work! He's already late as it is!

Nothing happened! All rolls were passed. Agate ValynYou expertly dodge around the fighting Pokemon and continue down the path. You're making better time now, but you've still got quite a ways to go. Keep up the pace!

Agate keep on pedalling. He swore that his legs a bit burning up from the sudden burst of speed, but he didn't have the luxury to look behind, lest those Pokemons actually saw him and try to catch on him. Once he felt that he's significantly far enough though he would look back and thankfully, none of those two are chasing him, haha! Score!
Finally! He's out of this predicament! Just for a good measure, Agate turned on his aura sight to prevent any sort of collision for anything remotely alive on the road. Now, hopefully there won't be any sort of direction distraction anymore, otherwise he's going to cry. Agate looked at his wristwatch just in case to check the time. Yep, he's running a bit late. All those detours took him quite a lot of his time, and he HAVE TO CHASE this guy who... he don't even have any idea where he is or what he's doing.
But either way, he called out to Randgris who will scout ahead. What will going on?

Nothing happened! All rolls were passed. Agate ValynNothing too out of the ordinary! Some nice looking flowers, a sparkly rock... it looks like for now, at least, it's smooth sailing for a bit. Enjoy the weather!

Just a bit more, just a bit more... As much as Agate wanted to take a rest, or even stop to marvel at the nature, this is not the time, not at all, sir. It's the final stretch, and therefore... he just need a little bit more... yeah. He's done getting lost, he's done running out of time because his internal compass is not working apparently. Although it was supposed to be a clear road, why on earth it ended up being a miss? No time to dwell however... For the meantime... he only can pedal at full speed. Yes, full speed ahead!
And now, all he can do is to look at the map again, making sure that he's not lost. Apparently he's close to Signpost Alpha... what the hell. Well, he guess it's just normal with how fast he's pedalling, but even so... he did not expect that he would be close at all! And here hoping that he'll find the guy!
