Kiki and Jen

Jen smirked and crossed her arms. Seems she had upset the little children, how cute.

"Oh, you two are angry, how adorable. At least you aren't shaking in fear anymore. Honestly, what you two dolts don't get is WHY I'm doing this. Picking on the weak? Maybe, but how else would weaklings get tougher? Anyways, there is no backing out now. Your stupid fighting type annoys me, and sickens me with his presence. Go, Umber!" Jen said, sending out an umbreon. The dark type gave the boy an odd look. Kiki knew this was not going to end well, then was shocked when several Full Restores hit the ground in front of her.

"Oy, heal your poemon and send it out! I was serious when I said it would take both of you to even hurt Umber." Jen said. Kiki quickly used the items and sent out Mouser, who squeaked softly.

"Rattata!" he cried. Jen had a very pleased look on her face.

"Don't you feel it? the power of this place, the darkness in the air. The perfect home for Dark types, the only place for someone like me. The doom, the desicration, all of it calling out to me. Truly, this is a fine night for a battle." the ivory haired ten said, looking genuinely happy. "Umber, start with Confuse Ray."

"Umbreon!" the fox said, opening her mouth and firing a ball of light at Catches.

"Mouser, get in the way!" Kiki cried suddenly, "if Catches is confused he might not be able to fight!"

"Ratata!" themouse cried, leaping in front of the ball of light, his eyes turning swirly. At least Catches would be able o do something.

Wyatt "Wyvern" Leon Bellerose

Although he didn't feel sleepy, Wyatt felt his eyes begin to feel baggy but resisted the urge to sleep. He was comfortable standing although it felt odd to speak to someone sitting so he sat on the floor with his back against the wall and his legs flat on the floor.

Wyatt received the sketchbook from Evie and scanned the picture. He almost had forgotton what the beach looked like and the picture was great.

"Instead of being a Nurse, it seems like you're trying to be an artist." Wyatt said with a sincere grin. He never really got into drawing unless it had to do with doodling. He traced his finger along the lines in the picture as he sat silently for a moment.

He began to ask how Evie met Leka although it would be awkward if she asked him that same question. His situation was different from how most people got their Pokemon.

"You used to live on a ranch, huh?" Wyatt asked, moving his legs so he could sit in a kneeling position. "I bet that was interesting from the sound of it. Hopefully you weren't distanced from any cities most of your life although that would necessarily be good or bad."

Wyatt handed the picture back to Evie with a slightly envious feel. She definitely had a future in becoming whatever she wanted but he had barely went to any classes while he was here. He would have to improve but procrastination was something that Wyatt excelled at unless he felt a self motivation to do so.

"So then why come to an Academy specifically for pokemon trainers? I mean, the clues in the name. Pokemon Trainer Academy. You could have learned to battle anywhere, just with practice."

She kept an eye on him as he got up and started to move around. If it helped him stay alert until the nurse arrived then she was fine with it, but she was half expecting to have to rush over and catch him when he keeled over. He totally owed her a TM or something for all of this, but she could just rib him about it when he was feeling better.

"I've had a few battles myself," she carried on, pointedly not looking at Cubone, "mostly on my way to the Academy. Once we've trained Shuppet and Litwick a little we can have a proper battle. But I think you might struggle with Corphish here," she grinned wickedly, "he's pretty boss."
"Cor-PHISH!"

Shawn shrugged, "I found that there's a big difference between wild pokemon battles and trainer battles. That's why I was probably sent here." He looked back at Sammy and shrugged, "Since I'm here, I might as well learn about battling with other trainers. I have to start somewhere, right?" That reminded him: Shawn has yet to repay Sammy for all this.

Shawn went to his chest of drawers, looking for something to give her for payment. He rifled through his things before finding...a Luxury Ball. He remembered her saying she caught a Shuppet before they met. It wasn't much to pay her for what she did for him, but he could make it up later when he recovered.

Shawn tossed it onto his bed, near where she was sitting. "That's for you. I know its not much, but I'll make up for your trouble when I'm ok again. As for Corphish, maybe I'll have a good battle with him later on."

Sammy stared at the Luxury Ball. What were the chances he would try and gift her with the same kind of pokeball she had accidently caught her Shuppet with? She shook her head. As much as she had been considering ribbing him over owing her, she never wanted any actual repayment. Besides, she could feel Corphish staring at her. He was an odd sort, with very unusual concepts of right and wrong. He probably didn't trust Shawn one bit, but if she tried to take a reward for a good deed he'd be as likely to pinch her as approve. Any means were appropriate if the cause was right, but he seemed to have issues with taking advantage of people.

"I didn't help you out for any reason other than that you needed it Shawn. Keep the ball, they're seriously expensive. Just promise me that whatever pokemon you catch with it, I get the first battle. That seems fair enough to me. Deal?"

"I just didn't want you to think I was taking advantage of your generosity," Shawn said, slowly taking the luxury ball back. He felt bad for not making it up to Sammy, but she did offer an alternative. Didn't they already agree to battle before? He didn't think about it, but instead agreed to her deal. "I know exactly what pokemon to catch. I'll agree to your deal, for now. I still feel like I'm not paying you back enough, though."

Shawn placed the ball back in the drawer and sat back down. He felt bad, not physically, but emotionally. He'll make it up somehow. "So when will the nurse get here? I'm tired of waiting for her and I'm ready to sleep."

Sammy wasn't entirely sure that Shawn had grasped the difference in promising to battle at some point, and promising she would be the first person who got to battle his next pokemon, but she let it slide. She had been about to question the location of the nurse herself when she was bustled out of the doorway by a large, officious looking woman with her hair in a steely grey bun. Sammy was told in no uncertain terms that the nurse was to be left with Shawn so she conduct her examination on the boy, and quickly shooed her out of the room, leaving Sammy barely enough time to say goodbye to Shawn.

Standing in the hallway with the door closed in her face she strongly considered marching back in and giving the nurse a piece of her mind, but figured it wouldn't do anybody any favours. She could see that Cubone was falling off his feet from exhaustion, so recalled the little guy back to his pokeball. Corphish on the other hand seemed as alert as ever.

"Well, come on then. We need to head into town and get Shuppet checked on I guess."
"Cor cor."

They made their way out of the dorm building, passing on their thanks to the attendant at the front desk, and wound through the Academy grounds before hitting the road to Oak Town. Now that she had a little time to herself - not counting Corphish scuttling along sideways beside her of course - she could give some thought to Shuppet. She had always found Ghost type pokemon very interesting and, not that she would ever admit it to anyone, quite romantic. Given the option she may have picked up a Sableye or a Froslass, but Shuppet was what she had.

She didn't know a great deal about the pokemon, so once she arrived at the Pokemon Center she handed the Luxury Ball across the counter along with Cubone's pokeball and Corphish. It never hurt to be safe and get them checked out at every available opportunity. While waiting for her pokemon to be seen to she sat down with one of the staff and spoke to them about basic matters concerning Shuppet. Their diet, expected behaviour patterns, move pool, evolutionary path and assorted other information you needed to know to care for a pokemon properly. She was going to be exhausted by the time she got to bed...

Time all at once seemed to go from slowly ticking by to rushing out the door. The nurse finally came in and ushered Sammy and her team out the door immediately. As she closed the door, the nurse turned to Shawn. She gingerly layed him down on the bed and started her examination. He was extremely uncomfortable with all this, but he determined that it was all for the best.

She sat him up and produced a sewing kit. Using some type of novocaine, she sewed up the gashes in his head while making sure she didn't jerk his head around and hurt him worse. After what seemed like forever, she finished with him and determined that he had a concussion that would last a few days. She gave him a dose of painkillers and decided that he'd be ok to go to classes tomorrow. She adjusted his bed and made sure he was comfortable. Finally, she cleaned the rest of the blood from his hair and face before she left, telling him to "be more careful next time".

Shawn felt better and happier, but didn't want to sleep. He had to get to the pokemon center to heal his team. He felt himself getting steadier on his feet, so he decided to try and walk there himself. He got himself read and slowly walked outside. He walked out the dorm towards the pokemon center.

Issac Milke - Volcano

Issac followed C.J. further up the path, as they hastily made their way away from the Tyranitar's cave. Before too long they hit the sigh saying 'Volcano Ahead'.
"Guess we're getting pretty close." C.J. said causing excitement to grow in Issac.
"Great!" Issac replied.


So many potential new team mates.. I have no idea who I will be coming out with!


Howls could be heard all around from Houndoom and Houdoor causing Trunks to sprint right into Issac's leg.
"Ouch Trunks! You need to watch you step, pal" Issac scolded.

"Twwi-" Trunks shuddered as the idea of fire pokemon struck him with fear. "I'm at such a disadvantage here..." he said to Ax.


"Look C.J.! That cave looks quite illuminated. Should we check it out?" Issac asked.

Issac Milke - Volcano Cave

"Okay Magby, here we come." Issac said to his small opponent with a grin. "Go Trunks! Hit him with razor leaf!"
"Twig!" he said with a nod as he whipped leaves off of his body towards the magby.
"Be.. be.. be.." the Magby snickered as the leaves closed in on him. He shot a small ember out, burning all the leaves which fell to his feat in ashes before hitting him. He raised his hand up and waved Trunks towards him in a mocking manner angering Trunks.

He is so.. cocky.

Sweat started to drip down Issac's brow from not only the heat, but fear that Trunks may be less likely to beat this small Magby then the Tyranitar from earlier.
"Trunks.." Issac started, "Sand tomb."
"Tuuuhwiig" He said as he swirled the dirt around the room and trapped Magby with it.
"Beeeeee" The Magby called out in regret that he underestimated the Turtwig.
"Now use razor leaf again! Be sure to get the circulating in the sand tomb!" Issac commanded.

Trunks whipped up more leaves, shooting them into the tornado of dirt trapping Magby, cutting him here and there. Out of anger the Magby spouted a spiral pf fire from his mouth, burning the leaves and causing the dirt to subdue then continuing the fire spin towards Trunks.

"TWWWIG!" Trunks called out as he was engulfed in fire.
"NO!" Issac yelled stepping forward and getting burned himself by a Magby that was able to hit him from the gravity field. "Owww.."

"GRRROTT!" came from a glow in the midst of the fire. When the fire died, an unharmed Grotle was standing there.
"Trunks.. wow." Issac said in awe. "You have to beat him now! Sand tomb him then charge up a solarbeam!"

"Grot!" He called out as trapped the Magby who was now trying to flee in a more intense tomb of dirt. The other Magby saw their leader in danger and all started shooting embers at Trunks, who was doing his best to dodge them, while charging his solar beam.
"C.J.! Can you stop the embers?" Issac called out to him.

Kilik listened closely to Kiyoko's story. Quite intriguing to hear. So if the story is true, then... It isn't clear, but Team Rocket make a return.

Valorie's had a say in the conversation. Yes, Team Rocket were big in Kanto. "Jhoto had its fair share dealing with Team Rocket," Kilik adds. In any case, Kilik's heard all he needs. He see's Valorie protective of Kiyoko. Guess she thinks Kilik wants Kiyoko. It's fine, Mistress already has the spot occupied anyway.

Kilik stands up, facing Valorie & Kiyoko. "If they've truly returned, you won't have to do it alone y'know." Kilik grinned as he pointed his thumb up to the ceiling. Tentou smiled & rawred. He still needs training.

I think I've enjoyed myself enough. Kilik wasn't feeling hungry anymore; of course, his Pokemon should get some food at his room. "I'm gonna...call it a night," Kilik exclaimed to his friends. He gathered enough for for his five Pokemon & bid farewell to his friends. No family...

As Kilik was walking down the path to his room, Tentou snuggled closely toward Kilik's leg. He looked down on him. Guess he was trying to cheer him up. "Thanks Tentou." It's a shame... His parents never made it. Such...such a shame...!
