Mitzi Abelle

Mitzi nearly had a heart attack when the teacher called out to her. The shock faded fast, however, when she realized that she was not, in fact, in trouble. This woman was certainly different than she had expected. Still, she didn't want to press her luck any more than she already had, so the girl shuffled over to the boy she had been directed to.

Stretching was what she had been instructed to do, and so that was what she did. Kind of. The boy she was paired to was no help at all, though Mitzi hadn't exactly prompted him to tell her what to do. So, what she did was make an attempt at what he was doing, bringing rather pathetic results. Mitzi was still too tired to even notice. She quickly got wrapped up in her own thoughts anyway, plotting out all of the different Pokemon she wanted to capture and thinking of what could be in all of the places she had yet to explore.

Holly

Holly watched as Void ran to the front of the room and tried to eat all of the Poffins. She decided that sometime later in the day she was going to have to study up on Pokemon from other regions. As long as she didn't have Kayla help her. She needed to learn how to do things on her own. She laughed and looked at Molly. At least he's nice to his pokemon... she thought. "He seems really nice. I just hope he treats Holly nicely. She's already been through enough." She realized that she said the last sentence out loud and sighed. She didn't want anyone to hurt Holly. If Holly was going to be hanging around him, then she had to be careful.

Danielle Accola & Megan Sandoval
Classroom

As a teacher, Megan would expect a few interruptions in her class, especially her first time. She took a brief sigh at Mark and his Ninjask. As Mark calmed the Ninjask down, the buzzing died down a bit. Now the class was less buzzy and loud than earlier.

Megan became a bit satisfied on the whole thing. As the class was quieting down, as well as the Pokemon, Megan proceeded to explain the next slide. There were two slides remaining. "We just explained type differences in terms of weaknesses against them. There are moves out there that power up both grass and bug-type moves. Like Sunny Day for example. Although Sunny Day is a fire-type move, it is powerful enough to power up any Grass-Type move you can think of. Solarbeam is one of them."

As she went to the final slide of the presentation, Bree stepped down from the counter, and began to prowl around the classroom. She heard a sound from the outside. While being alert, she stood beside Mimi just in case, observing Mark's Ninjask still buzzing softly.

"This is something you'll want to learn, class. Bug Types used to be weak against Poison-types, according to scientists in a prestigious University. Poison-Types are now effective against bug-types, because of the increase amount of species. Scientists have found, and tested that bug types can resist poison-types, so they have 'changed the rules a bit'. Now any Bug-type that gets hit by a poison sting won't be affected at all."

"But it'll still get poisoned, right?" Danielle asked Megan, as she finished writing down the slide.

"It is a rare case. But it can happen to a bug-type. For example, Leah here is both a bug and a grass-type." Megan presented her Leavanny to the class, walking up to her and patted on the back of her head. Leah waved to the class and smiled. "She has a higher chance of being affected by poison-types because she has part-grass elements in her.

"Interesting." Danielle said to herself.

Megan walked back to the board and turned off the projector. "Bree, lights please!"

As Bree used her telekinetic power to turn on the lights, Mimi stretched out and closed her eyes, after a long several minutes standing in the dark.

"Now, I want to give each one of you a few minutes to go over your notes for the pop quiz. Then afterwards, we will head on over to Battlefield 7 on top of this classroom hall for our practice battles. Alright?" Megan smiled at the whole class. "You may work with groups if you desire. Any questions before we start?"

"Pssst." Danielle whispered to Lucia, poking her at the shoulder. "Wanna study with me and Mark?"

As Mark was writing down notes, he couldn't help but notice that the other girl that was sitting next to Lucia seemed to catch a bit of interest to Shedinja (Forgot if Mark met Nika before or not) Even Shedinja turned around a bit and looked at her. It was of course as silent as ever and quickly turned toward the front of the classroom again, eagerly wanting to keep close to Able as if it were a guardian. It creeped Able out that was for sure. Well he supposed he could show off his Pokemon a bit to her after class if she was so curious. Maybe in battle. He already battled Lucia and Danielle after all.

He noticed that Danielle was actually whispering to Lucia about something. He figured it was class related. He really couldn't hear over Able's quiet buzzing right in his ear. Able got the whole lesson down in her head. Alot of the stuff she of course knew, being a bug herself but she didn't figure Mark knew some of these basics. Able wanted to learn more about how to kick some butt in battle, which would probably be handled during the practice battles.

Mark was tempted to ask the other girl to study with them, of course, if the other two were okay with it as well...

Lucia Francisco Bernavard​

Lucia wrote down all that the teacher told them. Most of this was basic stuff, but this was her first class after all! Couldn't expect learning all of the advanced stuff right at the beginning. Anyway, she made sure to take studious notes and idly wandered what Roberto had said to Able. Well, Roberto was known for being bluntly truthful after all, maybe he said something to her? That was the only thing she could think of at the moment.

As the teacher ended her lecture Danielle asked her is she would study with the two of them and she nodded, "Of course. Should be easy none the less, was taught all of this with my various tutors." She said.

Roberto for the most part didn't care that he made Able angry. He had said the simple truth and he would just continue to say the truth. Well, except for one thing in particular.

CHAPTER VI: THE GREAT OUTDOORS

After Hugin was finally freed of Spinarak's Spider Web, Maxwell told Vriska to go outside, as she putted her notepad back into her pocket, she sealed her Pokemon in their respective Pokeballs. She took her Pokedex once more and displayed the chat screen... No new messages, fortunately.

As she placed the gadget back, she finally stood up, and caught another glare of Hugin's, but unlike the others, this one seemed more wrathful...

"Say, Scoffer, can you forgive me?" She told Honchkrow with a big smile.

Not getting something other than more glares, she finally decided to follow Maxwell onto the great outdoors...​

As the boat pulled up to the pier at Oak Island, Wyatt felt his heart racing, and some sweat accumulated on his brow. "This is really happening, huh, Boo?" The Gastly floating around Wyatt smiled and nodded. "Gas-Gaaaastly!" Gaia was in her pokeball, but Wyatt was sure she was excited to venture to a new place, too. His eyes scanned the whole island as they approached. "Gosh, I can't wait to explore every single inch of this place!"

Wyatt donned his Suicune Dorm jacket when he left the boat. He had a massive backpack on his shoulders, which carried his violin, clothes, notebooks, writing materials, and all sorts of other things. The straps dug into his shoulders, chafing them, but the new jacket padded his shoulders nicely. He wore it over a dark brown t-shirt and some green camo shorts. His brown, worn sneakers were a bit of a point of embarrassment for him, as he looked around, approaching the school for the first time.

He hoped that his experiences here would help him learn more about Pokemon, and how to take care of them. He also hoped that he could improve his battling skills, train Boo and Gaia, and maybe even catch some new Pokemon.

"Yeah, the lecture looks like a piece of cake." Danielle replied to Lucia, who had accepted the offer to study with her and Mark. She then moved her desk close to Lucia, making sure that the feet of the desk isn't obstructing any Pokemon feet…or wing, anywhere. Danielle then turned to Mark and invited him to join them as well, throwing a "come on" signal to him.

Megan sat there from her desk, glancing at the students studying for the pop quiz. She was excited that the class day was going on great, and there was minimal interruptions…well, except for Mark's Ninjask. She glanced at Bree and Mimi, who were right beside the classroom door. Avan and Leah were right next to Megan's desk, observing the Suicuner student, Nika, studying right next to her. Avan jumped up and down to see most of the bug-type Pokemon floating in the air, especially a giant Beedrill and a Beautifly.

Bree came forward to Megan and purred at her. "Espeee…"

"I'm glad class is going on well. Ready to be a referee to many of these battles?" Megan asked the Espeon

Bree nodded, "Espee!"

Mark moved his desk over by Danielle and Lucia to study along with them. Snype of course followed as well. Able was keeping an eye on them. She couldn't exactly read any of the notes though. He wasn't very sure where to start with studying. To be fair, he wasn't the most organized student around when it came to writing notes. He liked learning by experience.

He looked over to Nika again. Well he didn't want her to feel outcast or anything...

"Hey, wanna join us?" Mark asked her. "Well, if you guys are fine with it that is." Mark said.

George Edmunds

George looked intently at the boy as he slowly came to a decision as to what exactly to answer.
"I'm looking for mining and fossils....where are you going?" The boys sheepish expression was plain on his face.
George thought for a moment. They were both lost then and neither could help the other. "I'm looking for the same class but I was hoping you'd have more of an idea as to where it was!" George chuckled slightly at his answer, "Do you happen to have your timetable on you? I've left mine in my room but I'm sure there will be a room number or something on there!" He smiled and began to study the boy more closely. He seemed almost to resemble a startled pokemon, ready to flee at the slightest noise.

Lucia Francisco Bernavard​

Lucia gathered with the others and flipped through her notes. It wasn't a lot truth be told, but it was rather neat penmanship on Lucia's part. Every Bernavard was taught how to write neatly and in their own stylistic way which meant all of Lucia's pages were filled with neat cursive writing. "Well, first off, what did you two learn? Off the top of your heads." She said.

Roberto tensed up as the little Sableye moved in closer to Lucia. Still, he made sure not to spring after him. However, if he got any closer or even tried to touch her he would not stand back anymore. He would just hit that little gremlin with all that he had.

Wandering around outside, unsure of what to do, Wyatt stumbled onto a girl, doing pretty much the same. It was Kayla, though Wyatt had no idea who she was, other than the fact that she was obviously another student. After straightening his Suicune Dorm jacket, and fixing up his hair a bit, he strode over to her. "Hi...Hi there!" he stammered, with a nervous grin on his face. Gastly circled around Kayla, familiarizing himself with her appearance. "Boo, be polite." The Gastly retreated back to his owner and hovered around Wyatt's shoulder. Wyatt took out Gaia's pokeball, and fiddled around with it, nervously. He blushed, turning his face a laughable shade of pink.

Kayla

Kayla turned and looked up at Wyatt. She didn't know that there were other people who weren't in class. The Deerling hid behind Kayla, occasionally peeking from behind her legs. Primrose looked up at her and giggled. "It's OK! You don't have to be scared!" The Deerling looked down at her and nodded. She slowly walked from behind Kayla's legs and looked up at Wyatt. Kayla giggled and looked at Wyatt. "Hi! How are you?" She looked down at Rosemary, who was looking at the Deerling excitedly. She bent down and picked the Skitty up. Rosemary purred and climbed on top of Kayla's head. Primrose looked up at Rosemary and climbed onto Kayla's shoulder. Yuri sat down and scratched at her ear.

"Wwwooooow! Your Pokemon are GREAT!" Wyatt exclaimed, without an ounce of sarcasm. He released Gaia from her pokeball, and the Grotle emerged with a great big yawn, and a smile on her face. Gaia plodded over to Yuri. "Hello there! Wanna be friends?" Boo circled around Kayla once more, before descending to the Deerling. "HEY! How are you? Hahaha, don't be afraid!" Wyatt smiled and held out his hand, hesitating. "Is it...Okay...?" he asked as he extended his hand to pet the Skitty on Kayla's head. His hand brushed through Kayla's hair a bit in the process. "Sorry." he apologized, blushing even further. He stroked the Skitty behind the ears, and smiled. Wyatt's Pokemon continued chattering on to Kayla's.

Kayla looked up at Wyatt and smiled. "Thank you!" She stood thinking for a while and released Jasmine from her pokeball. The Tepig looked up at Kayla and sighed. "Can't I ever get some peace and quiet?" Rosemary purred and licked Wyatt's hand. Yuri looked up at the Grotle that was talking to her. "Yes. I would like that very much.", she said ,her tail wagging. The Deerling looked at the Gastly and backed away a little. Primrose jumped down from Kayla shoulder and looked at the Gastly. "Sorry about her. She's not used to other pokemon. Hi! Nice to meet you!", she said with a smile. The Deerling looked at Primrose and sighed. Jasmine looked around and yawned.

"This is Boo, and Gaia", Wyatt said to Kayla, gesturing to his respective Pokemon, "and I'm Wyatt!" He stooped low to the ground to examine Jasmine. "And a TEPIG! Cool!" He held his hand out to Jasmine. Boo laughed and smiled at Primrose. "That's okay! Most run away from me when we first meet, anyway! Nice to meet you!" Gaia lowered herself towards Yuri, and Kayla's other Pokemon. "Would you like a nut? she offered, referring to the acorn-like nuts growing on the bushes on her back. She perked up even more at the sight of the fellow grass-type, Kayla's Deerling. "Hi there! Want to be friends? You can have a nut!" Gaia cooed at the Deerling. "Don't be scared, I won't bite!

Wyatt Wyvern (Raikou Dorm)

Training Academy/Pool

Wyatt was wandering around the Trainer Academy as he had been through only one building and he had an Urge to explore. He skipped classes because he felt that knowing the layout of this place was more important. After about a minute of pondering which on-campus building to check out in its entirety, Wyatt ran into a building that seemed half like a dome to him from the outside. As soon as he got inside his jaw dropped. The place was almost like a giant aquarium with an Olympic-sized pool. The water in the pool mesmerized Wyatt and before he knew it, he was staring at it for what felt like hours but was only a few minutes. After breaking out of his trance he got an idea. Since the pool was empty he could use it to train all his Pokemon. Instinctively he grabbed the three black Pokeballs, with one red ring at the top of them all, within his jacket and tossed them with ease to the center of the pool. (Wow and they actually landed where he aimed them to land).

X-Ray made a little splash when landing the pool and started roaming around the edges of the pool, close to Wyatt but away from the other two. As soon as Draco touched the water she skillfully dove to the bottom of the pool then shot up above the surface of the water doing a flip before disappearing deep in the water. Neptune splashed largest of all the others in the pool, nearly soaking Wyatt, being caught off guard and not being ready to swim. Wyatt laughed half to himself and silently wished he could swim and that he had even brought his wet suit. Draco and Neptune started sparring after a few, X-Ray and Wyatt sat by as bystanders as the two rivals stood to outdo the other. Draco was thrashing about in the water once Neptune got close, and at first glance it might have appeared she was drowning but instead she maintained mobility while dealing damage. Not realizing that he might lose if he stayed nearby, Neptune did the same. The two fighters were sending water soaring in the sky. Wyatt felt proud for rescuing these three pokemon and he couldn't wait to see who won the friendly spar.

Nika Valentine

It took Nika a second to realise that Mark was speaking to her. He wanted her to study with them? She had never had any offers like that when she was at school back home, all the other children were either horrible to her or tried to pretend that she didn't exist at all. And since setting out on her pokemon journey her contact with other people had been limited to the pokemon center, the pokemart and Gym Battles. Even when she had made it to the next town she generally preferred to camp on the outskirts, where she felt she belonged. Solitude had become second nature.

"I'd love to study with you, if no one minds." She answered.

Why had she said that? She'd put away her ideas of friendship a long time ago, accepting that her pokemon would be her only real companians. Why did she feel the way she did at this boys offer, like an ocean was raging in her chest and a stone weighing down her stomach? They could probaly be categorised as hope and dread, but those were conflicting emotions. It would be impossible to feel both things at once.

One of the girls would probably object to the idea anyway. There wouldn't be enough space for another person and their desk, they were nearly finished anyway so there was no point, she was an ugly freak and they didn't want a bug maniac loser like her anywhere near them. Nika took off her flatcap and smoothed back her hair as she waited for the judgement of the other girls. Girls were always far more cruel than the boys.​

Isaac Deladius in:
Bio hazard!

Isaac rushed in class knowing he was a bit late after being called down to the admissions office about some tuition payments or something. He huried into class once again not wearing his dorm jacket, but instead his green one. The last teacher didn't mind it so hopefully this teacher also agreed that the division of students was a bit unfair especially since it often ruined first impressions.

"Sorry I'm late. Deladius, Isaac. Held up by the offices." Isaac said as he entered the room.

Kayla

Kayla looked at Wyatt and smiled. "My name's Kayla!" Jasmine looked up at Wyatt and snorted. "Sorry about her. She's not very friendly." Rosemary jumped off of Kayla's head to greet the other pokemon. "Hi everybody!" Kayla smiled and realized that Wyatt didn't know her pokemon's names. "That's Rosemary", she said, pointing to the Skitty who was jumping around everywhere. "That's Yuri and Primrose.", she said pointing to her other pokemon. She bent down and picked Jasmine up. "And little Ms. Grumpy Pants here is Jasmine! That Deerling doesn't have a name. She's technically still a wild pokemon." The Deerling looked at Gaia and nodded, but didn't move.
