...He was in too many places at once, lately.

He'd just gotten here, but his mind was already elsewhere: on a train from Ashdell, on a battle in the desert, on a boy one town over, on a distant world he didn't remember but was sure he once knew. Jin was frustrated, because there were six pokémon tucked quietly away in the spheres around his waist, and Mohsen the gyarados wasn't present. He was frustrated, because the Rules of this land told him six was the maximum safe number of pokémon to carry, and Jin had more than six friends, and for the first time in his life he was forced to put Mohsen the gyarados in a little red-and-white ball and send him away to digital storage. It was breaking Jin's heart, and so much of his mind was on the giant blue gyarados crammed, dormant, in a PC somewhere.

Jin was in the middle of a gymnasium and it felt like school and he didn't like it. Everyone here looked like someone he'd known in a past life - copies of copies, sweaty guys with average smiles and average builds and hunger in their eyes. Jin wasn't like them, he decided. He was skinnier, by far; the silver stud in his nose glittered, defiantly. His eyes flashed with brooding, with reluctance, with all the imagined distance between himself and his peers. He forced his chin up and he strode through the stage. He tried to concentrate, to be present, but the adrenaline crept behind his gut and pushed into his empty skull and caused him to be reckless. 'This will be the hardest battle I've ever fought,' he told himself, 'but I can do this. I trust my pokémon and they trust me. I miss Mohsen. We'll fight for him.' Something like confusion was swirling around his head, like a camp of demons, but the feelings were vague and numbing and he shut out all the skepticism. 'This may be a farce,' he thought, looking around the gym, 'but this is my battle to fight.'
