Adria

Adria smiled a bit shaking her head "No sir I should be fine now, I just need to find where Vaper ran off to" she said. Standing her cane attached to her wrist. "I'll be fine on my own sir" she said smiling a bit as she walked off using her hearing to maneuver the the crowd and not hit anyone. She knew Vaper would find her way back to her when she was ready to. Smiling a bit to herself still glad she could get around the young girl listened to people talking and managed to find her way to the refreshments. "Okay, I got here okay now how to do this" she said quietly to herself biting her lip a bit.

Vaper

Vaper smiled back and bowed her head to Drizzle before taking his paw "Thank you" she said smiling as they went out onto the dance floor. "I don't know how to dance I hope you do" she added smiling a little amused to see how this was going to turn out.

Brian

Bri shrugged. To be frank, his schooling had been practically an all boys school. That, and having six brothers but not even one sister might have something to do with it. He smiled at Sel and nodded.

"Hey, I'm not that heavy!" Bri protested. He looked around, wondering where they would get these drinks Sel had talked about. He was thirsty too. He was rather enjoying the field trip. He ust hoped that the rest of his friends were too.

"So... Any ideas where we might find something to drink?" Bri said, relaxing a tad bit. He raised his eyebrow at Sel. Nova began sniffing the air, trying to find the scent of some punch or something, but there was way too much of that all over the place to be of any use what so ever.

Brogan
Lesser mortals would have been taken aback by Calnith's violent response, but not Brogan. Mainly because, as Calnith backed off and Brogan brushed her shoulder with a raised eyebrow, the door opened and a man about thrice Calnith's size poked his head around it.

"it's fine, Rob, thanks," smiled Brogan and Rob nodded, closing the door again. Brogan rearranged her dress, smoothing out non-existent creases, before looking up at Calnith once more with a small smile.

"There's no need for that temper, Calnith, I'm not the one threatening you here. Now, I suggest you keep your head and take a seat. I know that you have gotten yourself caught up in trouble that is bigger than you. And I'm offering to help you. After all, there's nothing bigger than HoTa Corp. So you either sit and hear me out, or I have the lovely Rob and Nick out there escort you from the premises and you can try dealing with this by yourself. But for your sake, I wouldn't suggest you take the latter path."

Calnith Sol NeverWind

"Fine," Calnith said calming down a bit as he sat down. He wasn't afraid of Rob or Nick Colossus could take care of those two fools with ease Calnith was just worried about his parents.

"Quit acting like you big and bad because of you father's work it sickens me," Calnith said not looking at Brogan. He was looking at his pokegear in his hand wondering if he was going to get another call. Hoping he was going to get another call. He then wondered what Vince was doing.

"What do you want?" He asked now looking at his shoes.

Snype took Thyme's arm and gently pulled her close. Remembering how Thyme had danced before, this time he was leading her through. He got a good idea of what Thyme had shown him and was certainly doing better then before. After twirling her around once, he leaned a little closer to her.

"Kehehe, you look much more beautiful when your happy Thyme..." Snype said before continuing their dance. Thyme's temper was certainly going to be a problem for Snype if it ever got really bad. But somehow he could find a way to cheer her up.

MacKenzie Quigg


MacKenzie looked at Kenshin with raised brows as if she were trying to peer into his very soul to see his intentions. Was she, the master of all things that spite the mainstream, going to dance with a boy at a formal dance and everything? If she did normal things too often it would cease to be ironic and just look like a change of character, which wasn't something she wanted. Never-the-less, she was amused. Had this boy not seen what she had done? Had he seen and just not cared? She read his face and found herself assuming the former. He didn't seem like the type to just /not/ care. If he was, he wouldn't be so nervous. He must not have known how she ran things. She was tempted to pry and tell him it depended on what dances he knew. Yet... What were the chances a /boy/ their age would be well versed in dance? Unlikely enough that MacKenzie trusted the odds. Chances were if she threwthe names of obscure dances at him he wouldn't know what she was talking about.

"Sure~"

She actually seemed mildly enthusiastic about her answer as if it what Kenshin had proposed was actually pretty cool, but it was still no big deal. She proceeded to reach out for Kenshin's hand, inviting him to take iniative.

Valorie Ryder


Meanwhile, Valorie was led away by Mark to some foldup chairs off to the side. She moved a bit sluggishly, not feeling completely confident in her balance at the moment. When she got to the chairs she sat down and let out a sigh of pseudo relief. She wasn't out of the woods yet. Stress sickness.was not something one could just shrug off. She would have to resist it and hope her body calmed down. She closed her eyes in an attempt to do just that, deliberately focusing on keeping herself from hyperventilating and resting her hands on her knees. After a few moments she assumed Mark was still with her and spoke up.

"Thanks..."

This time she just sounded a bit tired, which was more or less a give in. They had had a busy day and she had been under a lot of stress. Being tired was basically expected. After she spoke shhe would open her eyes to actually look at Mark. So many things she should say, so little energy to say them. A part of her felt she needed to tell Mark about what was going.on between Selene and her, but another part was both too tired and too afraid of his reaction. Thus she wound up saying nothing.

Mark lead Valorie over to a few fold up chairs, away from the crowd that had been involved in the dance. She seemed consumed by stress... must have been a long day for her. Though Mark could easily say the same thing about himself what with all of the problems he's been having with Selene and all.

"Sheesh, the other guys are practically swarming you Val. I can't believe two of them fought over you... are you alright? If you need me to get you anything..." Mark offered with a friendly smile. He attempted to change the subject to hopefully get Val's mind off of what had just happened earlier.

"...Hey I saw you battle Lance up on the stage. Nice work there Val. I haven't been doing too hot myself in battle recently. Today isn't a good day for me I guess. Haha..." Mark said. He wasn't sure if he should mention his fight with Sel. He knew that Val was really good friends with her and all and had no intention of starting a scene.

Drizzle

"Dear Vaper, you wound me. Of course I know how to dance!" Drizzle said, delighted she had accepted his offer. He laughed merrily and began leading, using small, light steps that would be easy for her to match. He smiled charmingly at her.

"You have beautiful eyes. Just saying," Drizzle said, a slight grin on his face. Forget Thyme. She was too tempermental anyways.

Thyme

Thyme was not at all surprised when Snype was taking thee lead during their dance. She smiled warmly at him, and gave a wry chuckle. She leaned close to him and smiled.

"Thankss... You always look handssome. And it seemss like your dancing hass improved a bit. Heheheh," Thyme said with a slight chuckle. She closed her eyes for a moment and just let herself follow along with the music before opening them again. She focused on Snype again, not taking her eyes off of him for an instant.

Brian (OOC: I'm assuming that Sel followed Brian. If not, I can alter this post.)

Brian finally reached the refreshments table. Nova padded up next to him. Bri glanced around, looked for something to drink. He turned to look at Sel.

"Um... I wonder if they have any fruit punch," he said. He nticed a girl around his age at the table too. She was a little bit shorter than him, which was surprising given the fact he was very short for his age. She was currently dressed in a blue dress that had a white bow tied around her waist. His mouth went dry and he promptly forgot what he had been about to say. His mind barely registered the cane she was carrying.

"Um... Uh..." he said intelligently. Nova chuckled at him and sat down. He knew he got nervous around girls, but never like this. He gripped his crutches a little bit tighter. He felt a little bit faint, and was unsure what to say or do anymore. He reached out and grabbed a cup, not really noticing what was in it and drained it. Nova looked up at him a moment.

"Heh, go say something. Heheheh," he said, still chuckling. Bri nodded slowly but didn't move from his spot.

Vaper

Vaper smiled following his lead blushing faintly "thank you, I think you have nice eyes too" she said blushing a bit more smiling as he led her in a dance. She was warming up to this Buizel, now she had to think of what Icicle would do to him. "I'd be careful" she said laughing a bit "my trainer's third Pokemon tends to be protective of me as well"

Adria

Adria had been standing there for a few minutes and sighed to herself. Why did her life have to be so hard. If only she hadn't sent Vaper off or if she had brought Wave or Icicle from the Academy. Oh well, all she had to do now was wait for someone else to show up. Suddenly she heard footsteps and what sounded like crutches before hearing a boy say something about fruit punch before going quiet. Turning her head toward the sound and her body with the help of her cane she said softly "i-is someone there?"

Drizzle

Drizzle grinned. He wasn't worried about anyone. If anything, he was glad someone was protective of her. But it made his job a little tougher.

"Heh, I'm not worried about him. But it says a lot about you, if someone cares enough about you to try and protect you. Heh, I'll just have to convince this person that they don't need to protect you from me," Drizzle said charmingly as they danced. He became satisfied that she was learning his moves and stepped it up a little bit. But not so much that she would have difficulty with it. He smiled. He was basically teaching her how to dance without having to say a word. That was good. He rather enjoyed this dance.

Brian

"Say something you dumb pup!" Nova ordered. Brian had an odd sort of dreamy expression on his face. He had completely forgotten Selene was even there. He swallowed and grabbed another drink and drained it too. Nova growled and pushed on his legs gently, forcing Bri to take a step closer to the girl.

"Um... Uh... I... I'm here... M-my name is Br-br-br-brian... And... Uh... It's n-n-nice to m-meet you..." Bri said, barely able to get the words out. Nova growled and Bri looked down at him oddly.

"Oh... And th-th-this is my Growlithe... H-h-h-his name is Nova..." Bri said nervously. Nova barked an affirmative, a triumphant look in his eyes.

Vaper

Vaper smiled a bit more as Drizzle stepped it up a bit. She already could tell that in time Icicle would surely approve of Drizzle being around. "We've had some close calls in the past when keeping our trainer out of trouble" she said "Icicle's like a father to me" she said happily still following his lead picking it up easy.

Adria

Adria smiled a bit as she heard the person step again and heard a voice "Um... Uh... I... I'm here... M-my name is Br-br-br-brian... And... Uh... It's n-n-nice to m-meet you...". She could tell this was another boy but not how old he was.

Adria looked down her cane hidden behind her legs "My name's Adria. Nice to meet you Brian. I-If it doesn't seem rude may I ask how old you are?"

Drizzle

Drizzle gave Vaper a little twirl before speaking again. He grinned widely at her.

"I hear that. Me and my trainer have been through some pretty rough times. Like when we went into a haunted building to save his best friend, and it was only me and Nova able to protect him. Anyways, this Icicle sounds very cool. I'd be very protective of someone I care about too. Heh, maybe we'll get along better than you think!" Drizzle said, making a mental note not to introduce Thyme to Vaper. Thyme would just run her off. He was really starting to like Vaper. And she seemed to like him back.

Brian

"Uh... I'm ten... Almosy eleven.... Er, it's n-n-n-nice to meet you t-too, A-adria..." Bri said. He noticed she was hiding the cane behind her back, but thought nothing of it. He smiled slowly, cautiously at her until Nova pushed him closer to her.

"H-hey! Cut it out Nova!" Bri said as he took a step forward. Nova stood still, smirking like a maniac.

"No. You like her. I can smell it. Just tell her. God, sometimes I wonder which one of us is the pup here," Nova said with a laugh. Bri frowned at him.

"You're the pup... I'm a kid... Not a pup, you silly pup. S-sorry about that... Nova's very... Um... He's being very odd right now..." Brian said timidly.

Snype hadn't taken his eyes off of Thyme either. The hissing sounds she was making were slowly fading and they had occurred less often. Snype was happy about that at least. Her attitude was the reason Snype liked Thyme in the first place... the temper could at least be managed. Snype wasn't one to be scared off so easily. He cared for her too deeply to give up on her. She was alot nicer when she had someone to be with.

"... Handsome eh?... hehe... gotta dress to impress the loveliest lady in the room eh?" Snype said, nuzzling her a bit and giving her a firm kiss on the lips.

Kenshin Ren

Kenshin was a little surprised that Mackenzie accepted his offer and when she held out her hand to him he blushed. Quickly returning Pikachu to his pokeball so he wouldn't lose sight of his friend, and so Pikachu wouldn't get hurt, Kenshin took Mackenzie's hand. Soon as he took her out a bit into the dance floor he placed his other hand at her waist and proceeded to do a simple slow dance.

"Um. . . I don't really know much on dancing besides. . . a little bit of this slow kind so. . . I hope that's okay," he said shyly.

After a few seconds he decided he'd make a bit of polite and friendly conversation with her.

"So um, Mackenzie, what dorm are you in? Have you. . . been at the academy long or are you new too?" he asked.

He at least hoped she wouldn't be bothered by him asking these questions. Seriously poor kid doesn't exactly know whether or not there really is a proper etiquet at a dance besides a boy asking a girl to dance.


Takumi Ryuuhiko

Takumi himself had arrived into the ballroom in what was. . . definitely a much fancier and expensive looking outfit than what most kids his age had. It was sorta like one of those types of noble formal wear that had a long heavy jacket with a high colar that was folded down to surround his neck, a cravat instead of a tie, a vest, very nice pair of shoes, and all of the other fancy details for his outfit.

(OOC: it looks pretty much like the kind of outfit you'd see Manfred Von Karma wear from the Phoenix Wright games)

First thing he sees when he arrives is an argument between two boys over the girl that got to battle Lance earlier today. And by the looks of it, the girl was getting upset and was starting to look pretty sick from the fight going on. It seemed like one of her other male companions had enough sympathy and common sense to know she wasn't feeling well and watched as the boy led her away to where the folding chairs were in case people got tired and decided to sit down from the dance.

Takumi didn't care so much for this kind of thing considering the level of immaturity that he felt was among the other students, and personally he scoffed the two boys who fought over that girl just for a chance to dance.

Immature brats. They have no manners or any knowledge of how to properly conduct themselves at such a formal event. And now their behavior has caused the prize they sought over to become damaged and have no significant value to either of them as of this evening, he thought to himself.

Taking a small sense of pride in his upbringing and deciding to go on his manners as a proper gentleman, Takumi walked over to the punch bowl to get two drinks, before walking over to where he saw Mark and Valorie walk off.

When the 5'7'' tall student approached them, he spoke up.

"Excuse me for intruding, but I couldn't help but observe the incident that just occurred for the young lady and wished to see if everything was alright," he said. He then held out the two drinks he brought over with him. "I thought you both could use something to drink, if at the very least to help settle things. Would either of you care if I joined you, if at the very least to make sure the young lady is alright?"

Vaper

Vaper giggled and smiled more as Drizzle turned her "Your trainer sounds like he really cares about Pokemon, and yeah Icicle is cool. By age he's older than me and Wave but in level he's the same" she smiled at him. She was sure now that Icicle and Wave would like Drizzle.

Adria

Adria smiled a bit more looking up. So she had been right, Brian was her age. She tilted her head after he said something to his Pokemon. "is everything okay Brian? What's Nova doing?" she asked having picked up on the fact that he either hasn't noticed she's blind or he's chosen not to say anything.

Thyme

"Heh, that'ss so sweet-" Thyme said, but she was cut off when Snype suddenly leaned forward and kissed her. She smiled at him. She was glad that she hadn't scared him off. He was a very nice person. She loved being with him.

"Heh, boy, you do know how to sshut me up when you want to. Heheheh, but you don't have to worry about impressing me. I'm not one to be taken in by pretty looks. I like you for you," Thyme said. She shook her head and kissed him back.

Drizzle

"Yup. Brian is a good kid. He's been through a lot of crap, but he still always has a smile on his face. And hey, you wanna know a secret? He can actually understand what we say. It's pretty cool, but I'm not sure how he does it. Anyways, what about your trainer? I'm sure that they must be nice too," Drizzle said, a slight smile on his face. He was having a lot of fun talking to Vaper. This dance was going well.

Brian

Bri looked down at Nova, who had a questioning look on his face. Was she blind or something? Nova had pushed him so close now that she could practically reach out and grab him. Then it struck Brian. She was blind! That explained the cane and the weird questions. Somehow, this didn't make Brian anymore nervous. But it didn't help him relax either.

"Um... Uh..." Bri said, losing his train of thought again. Nova laughed at him.

"Tell her or I'll push you right on top of her!" Nova barked at him, still chuckling. Bri scowled at the mutt.

"Fine... Um... Nova's been shoving me over here towards you... I don't know why..." Bri said. Nova gasped for air and looked at him. He was trying to recover from his laughter.

"Hahahah! You knw very well why! Or are you as clueless as you act?" Nova said between laughs. Bri shot him a questioning look, which made the pup laugh even harder.

"By Arceus! You really ARE clueless!" Nova said with a laugh.

"Nova, return!" Bri said pulling out Nova's pokeball. He had had enough of Nova. He returned Nova and slipped the pokeball back into his pocket with the rest of them. He turned back to Adria, still trying to figure out what to say.

"Um... Er..." Bri said, unable to get out much more than that.

Vaper

Vaper smiled "Brian sounds like a good kid, my trainer she's a wonderful girl. Her mother made a bad choice before she was born and it affected Adria for life, she was born blind but she's a good trainer very nice girl"

Adria

Adria blushed a bit smiling at Brian, "it's okay" she said giggling a bit "no need to be shy, I have the feeling we're going to be great friends" she said smiling more "is it okay if I call you Bri?" she asked extending her hand to him.

Drizzle

Drizzle smiled at her.

"Wow, that sounds tough. Heh, she must be something special. Maybe it would be cool if I stopped in and said hi after this dance before I go and find Bri. I'd really like to meet her," Drizzle said, his voice an awed whisper. Someone that couldn't even see was a trainer? That was definately awesome! He didn't even know her, but he had a lot of respect for Vaper's trainer. He smiled and continued the dance, though this song was starting to end.

Brian

Bri paled and nodded. Then he remembered she wouldn't be able to see his nod, so he had to speak up.

"Erm... All my friends call me Bri... I'd love to be friends with you too," Bri said nervously as he grasped her hand weakly. He slowly shook it before letting go after a moment. Why was he getting like this? He shook his head. He didn't quite get it.

Adria

Adria smiled shaking his hand "good, hmm I wonder where Vaper got off to" she said sighing a reaching out with an unsure hand trying to get a drink as she called "Vaper!"

Vaper

Vaper smiled happily "Adria's proven people wrong, It's all thanks to the gym leader back home, after her parents divorce she shut herself off but hearing the gym leader inspired her, that's what Wave told me" she said smiling as the song ended and she heard her trainer call. "you coming?"

" Listen Quincy, your problem with the date, I have that problem to. For some reason, no girl ever seems to like me. *sobs* But anyway maybe they're afraid of you thinking that they're a robot like what you thought of me just a few minutes ago. But maybe you can attract somebody with Zemda's singing, she sings pretty good." Gen decided to sit around for a little while longer. He hummed a tune and released CupCream from her pokeball.

"Use your ice breath to freeze me up an ice cube!" said Gen. VUpcream did so and Gen chewed on the ice.
