Danger on the S.S. Anne [IC]

SylveonStar · Aug 14, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle smirked to herself as she noticed Buster had been distracted by the PA announcement. It looked like he was worried about what had been said about the Police being on board. Giselle had no care about it, nothing had happened to her or her Pokemon, and she had no friends to worry about, so if someone had been stupid enough to get in trouble with the police, it had no affect on her. Giselle watched as Fury Cutter hit Buster's Pokemon and she smiled to herself, not an evil or a cold smile, but a happy and gentle smile made it's way onto her face. She knew if she had Jet use Fury Cutter again it would be a little stronger, and it was already super effective against the Umbreon.

Giselle watched as the Umbreon glowed with a dark aura. Faint Attack, that's a good call, it never misses and even if it did, Jet is to confused and to close to the Umbreon to dodge, impressive she thought. True to her thoughts the attack slammed into Jet and he skidded back some shaking his head. Jet cringed slightly from the pain but shook his head again trying to clear it of the confusion. "Use Water Pledge!" Giselle called out. Jet still confused braced his feet on the ground and Giselle held her breath. There was a fifty fifty chance of Jet either hurting himself or using the attack but to her luck Jet raised his paws slightly and sent a column of water hurling at the Umbreon.

Sarah Reyes

Sarah nodded her head at the boy's answer. "Very well then. We can always battle at another time anyway. I don't want to strip you of your chance to explore the islands." She said with a smile. "I will see you later then." What a very well mannered boy! Sarah thought to herself as she turned around to walk away, but Blaze stayed there. Sarah rolled her eyes and grabbed the Blaziken's arm and gave him a tug, "Blaze. You will be able to later." She said.

Blaze just sighed and turned away and walked after his trainer. As Sarah walked away she could easily tell that Blaze was getting into one of his moods again. Just let a powerful opponent pass him by and Blaze would sulk until she gave in and let him battle whoever he wanted to. She knew he would get out of it, especially if they found some battles near the caves with the pokemon that resided there.

She quickly found her way back to Orenji. "Well, we are back! Ready to explore the island?" She asked the trainer as Blaze just looked back at the healing station, completely disinterested in the conversation. Sarah didn't let it bother her though, she was used to it by now.

Orenji: Super Island Exploring Time!

After healing his pokemon, he nodded and got into a Sentai pose. "Indeed I am, let's find super rare pokemon to fight and maybe someone who has a combusken or blaziken and then.. ampakojdmonahgbvgfvrwuyvburw!" Orenji practically drowned in water, courtesy of his big fat orange comedian. "Dammit Maytec! You're going to be a fan when we get back!" The Rotom laughed of course, he laughs for bloody EVERYTHING!

"Get back here dammit!" The orange ensemble began to chase after his rambuncious Rotom. Suddenly stopping, he grinned and pointed to Sarah, last one in the cave is a rotten Eggsecute!" He then sped off after Maytec. Angel sighing and slowly following, before returning to Sarah and Blaze, giving them some happiness powder, and slowly leaving a tiny trail incase they want to find the orange Sentai.

George "Buster" Leggingsteele
Buster VS. Giselle - A Battle of Trust!
----------------------------------------------------------------

George focused hard on the battle, but he did have the time to see the girl's lips break out in a smile. However it wasn't a cold or evil smile, it was very warm and genuine. Truth to be told, Buster thought that the smile made her a bit cute. But now was not the time for such thinking! The young man directed his attention towards the two Pokémon. He silently bit his lip a bit, he had hoped for the Dewott to hit himself. However it seemed luck was on his opponent's side. Now the creature sent out a Water Pledge, a move that only certain Water-types could learn from a so called 'Move Tutor'. Like a weaker version of Hydro Cannon, he imagined.

"Well..." Buster thought. "Now what to do? I'm in a bit of a sticky situation... I think that Penumbra might be able to dodge the attack with a well-placed Quick Attack. However this girl is certainly skilled, she has probably already figured out that I might take that route. Even though her Dewott is confused, it has been on quite the lucky side with the side-effects and I wouldn't want to risk Penumbra getting hit with another Fury Cutter..." He had to react fast, the pillar of water was coming closer and closer to his Umbreon. But then, George got an idea!

"Penumbra, Quick Attack straight forward!" He exclaimed enthusiastically. The Umbreon looked back at him for a few seconds with a facial-expression saying "Are you effing kidding me?!"
"Just trust me on this one!" Buster exclaimed again, his enthusiasm not becoming weaker for one second. Penumbra just sighed and made a disgusted face at the thought of going through the attack. But he still took his position, his hairs standing on their ends as he started moving with great speed. Swiftly and powerfully, the Umbreon ran through the pillar, thus getting damaged but still heading straight for the Dewott.

SylveonStar · Aug 15, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle watched her left hand resting on her hip as the column of water went towards the Umbreon. Truth be told she was interested in how Buster was going to handle this attack. Was he going to try to dodge or something else. But as she watched Jet stumble from the confusion she hoped he snapped out of it soon. "C'mon Jet, you can snap out of it" she murmurered to herself to no avail. "Those things can take awhile to snap out of, but he'll be out of it in a bit, I just hope he doesn't faint first" she thought.

She wacthed as Buster's Umbreon ran right through the column of Water getting injured but kept going until it slammed against Jet with Quick Attack. "Jet Use Fury Cutter!" she ordered and the Dewott's claws glowed blue again. Giselle held her breath and frowned as Jet hit himself instead of the Umbreon, "Jet!" she called out worried and the Pokemon shook his head and winced before straightening out. "Use it again Jet!" she called out and the Dewott's claws turned blue once more and he swung them at the Umbreon.

Caydee Mint - Seafoam Islands

Flocks of Wingulls flew around the islands, as waves kept crashing and crashing on the shore. The island where the SS Anne had docked was large enough for the passengers to go explore. For Caydee, she wants to take her free time to train her Pokemon, especially her new Shiny Rattata. As she found somewhere quiet, away from the crowds, she took out all three Pokeballs (Thunder's, Ninetales' and Rattata's) and threw them up in the air.

"Come out you guys!" she shouted.

Ninetales came out first. Then Rattata, and lastly, Thunder the Jolteon. They both mewed a bit, with the exception of Rattata, who stood there silent. Ninetales turned to the lone, shiny Pokemon realizing that Hydro isn't there next to him anymore. He blinked frequently at the Rattata, with the Rattata starting to shake with anxiety.

"Okay guys. I uhh…had a trade with someone the other day, and well…Hydro is no longer with us. But Rattata is here, which is a good thing, right?" Caydee said, scratching the back of her head.

Thunder came up to the Rattata and got closer to smell his nose. "Jolt?"

Rattata's startling behavior calmed a bit as the Jolteon was offering a "Hello" at him. She smiled happily at the tiny rat Pokemon, and he slowly smiled back. Caydee felt better as the two were starting to bond what it looks like Rattata's first friendship.

"Oh goody!" Caydee was excited. "Now we..need to get a bit serious. We have to train in order to battle some of the passengers, as well as battle Blaine if we ever get the time to do so." She paused a bit to glance at the crashing waves on the shore, then she approached to Rattata who was standing next to Thunder. "Want to show your moves, Rattata?"

Rattata got scared when Caydee approached to him, but Thunder pats him in the head to calm him down. "Rrrrrrrratta?"

"It'll be just for a few minutes, really." Caydee replied and smiled. "Doing so will make you stronger in battle!"

Rattata got closer to Caydee, and faced the shore behind her. He was indeed ready, no doubt about that. He went to the middle, between Caydee and the start of the shore, and his left paw starts to glow purple. Caydee was confused as to what attack it was, and it seemed unusual. Rattata turned to Ninetales and sprinted to him, swinging his glowing paw and hitting his chest. He then flipped back to his spot. Caydee's mouth widened, amazed as to what she saw.

"Niiiiiine!" Ninetales growled softly at the Rattata.

"…was that Sucker Punch?" Caydee asked. She had to take out her Pokedex to find out. She then opens it and found information about that particular move. This move enables the user to attack first. It fails if the target is not readying an attack, however. "Well then!" Caydee said, "Looks like we got a pretty good Pokemon here."

Suddenly, everything started to shake fiercely. It felt like a monster truck was coming, but there was no way whatsoever that vehicles were coming in this island. Caydee grew concerned, she had nowhere to hide, and neither do the pokemon. Olly flew up higher to find what was causing the shake. He then called out to Caydee to look behind her. "Pii Piiip!" Caydee turned around, and shrieked loudly.

"Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiscash."

It was a large Whiscash. It was just jumping next to the crashing waves, and had its eyes on Caydee and the Pokemon. She stepped back from the wild Whiscash, but the Whiscash was actually getting closer as it followed her. It did look pretty mad. As it jumped on the sand, the ground started to shake, producing mini-vibrations on the sand as it shook.

"Oh man…is this…Whiscash's home?" Caydee said to herself. "Did I manage to disturb it or something?"

George "Buster" Leggingsteele
Buster VS. Giselle - A Battle of Trust!
----------------------------------------------------------------

If he hadn't known better, George would probably have assumed that Penumbra's Confuse Ray hadn't done anything at all to the Dewott. But he was reminded that it had in fact done its job by the sudden stutterings from the Water-type. He was sure that the girl would be getting tired of her Pokémon's antics by now. But that was the beauty of Confuse Ray, or any confusion-inducing move for that matter.

Buster watched as Penumbra's attack connected with the Dewott. Silently he apologized to his Umbreon for making such a rash decision, but an element of surprise was always a good thing in Pokémon-Battles. But as he knew Penumbra's lack of ranged attacks, he also knew that the Dewott would be pretty free to hit him with another Fury Cutter. And that was just what its trainer ordered. But now, was the time when the confusion finally kicked in. Buster watched with contempt as the Dewott hit himself and a smile grew upon his lips.

"Now Penumbra, use Assurance!" He exclaimed. Assurance was a good move if pulled off correctly. While it was pretty weak on it's own, if the target had been hurt shortly before the attack would double in the damage it would deal. Penumbra smirked - something he didn't usually do - as his paw started to glow in a deep-purple aura. But just as he was about to jab the Dewott in the chest, said Pokémon quickly regained its stance and used another Fury Cutter.

Both Penumbra's and George's smiles went away at the same time; talk about synchronization! As the Dewott was faster, the Fury Cutter hit Penumbra before he could get his Assurance to connect. The Umbreon was flung back by the attack. His muscles relaxed without and order to do so, so the Dark-type landed pathetically and limply on the ground. After a few seconds he regained control over his body again, albeit it was hard to control it properly. Penumbra tried to get up, but struggled a bit. His knees shook a bit before he managed to stand firmly back up.

"Penumbra, are you okay?!" George exclaimed at the sight of his Pokémon. The Umbreon just smiled weakly at him and started taking deep breaths. It was clear that he was on the verge of collapsing. Buster clearly saw this, but he wasn't going to let his Pokémon go down without a fight! "Faint Attack, one more time!" He said confidentally. Penumbra smiled and started running towards the Dewott while his aura darkened again.

SylveonStar · Aug 15, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle let out a sigh of relief, she was so glad that Jet was no longer confused so he wouldn't hurt himself again. She took a breath and looked closely at the Umbreon. She had seen Buster tell the Umbreon to use an attack right after Jet had hurt himself but Jet had been quicker and placed a well aimed Fury Cutter. "Your doing great Jet, just a little bit more" she called out smiling as she noted the Umbreon was weak on his feet. But Buster had already impressed her with his performance in the battle. A deal was a deal, so she was going to try her best after the battle to be nice to him.

As the Umbreon ran forward surrounded by that dark aura again with Faint Attack Giselle got an idea. "Alright Jet this is it! Use Aqua Jet" she ordered. Jet spared a glance at his trainer at first with a 'what are you doing' look on his face before he understood. Quickly he turned around and ran straight at Buster's Umbreon water and a blue aura surrounding him and the two Pokemon Collided the blue and dark aura's mixing as well as the water that splashed in the air missing both trainers luckily.

George "Buster" Leggingsteele
Buster VS. Giselle - Second Fight, First Loss.

...On a Boat.
----------------------------------------------------------------

This was it. Buster's gaze hardened as he looked at Penumbra getting closer and closer to the Dewott. In all honesty he screamed to be defeated. His Pokémon was at the verge of fainting and because the Umbreon ran straight forward without any use of a tactic, he was an easy target to counter. Buster looked at the girl for a while - breaking the "focused" stance he had assumed - and noticed that she was smiling. He didn't know if it was because of the battle or because he impressed her, but Buster smiled as well. He smiled at the fact that he - directly or indirectly - had gotten her to smile genuinely.

As Buster anticipated the Dewott to go for another Fury Cutter, the Water-type's trainer ordered him to use Aqua Jet. Hmm... Strange, what was she planning on exactly? As Penumbra and Jet crashed into each other - their dark respective blue auras mixing - a cascade of darkened water flew everywhere on the battlefield. George's eyes beamed when he saw the dark droplets shining as they flew across the field. But he quickly directed his attention back at the two participants, the water obstructing them had cleared. At first he could only see Penumbra, the Umbreon tried his best to stand up but he eventually fell to the floor. His eyes remained closed.

Buster sat down where he was and let out a big sigh. He returned his Umbreon with the words "Good job buddy," and put the PokéBall back in his pocket. He looked up for a while, letting the lights in the ceiling blind him for a moment while he started to muse about what had just happened.

SylveonStar · Aug 16, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle watched as the water and aura cleared somewhat and at first like Buster she could only see the Umbreon, but right after Buster's Pokemon fainted Jet came into view. "Great Job Jet" Giselle called out pulling out his Pokeball about to call him back when suddenly the Dewott started glowing a bright white. Giselle froze and her eyes widened for a split second before she punched a fist up into the air with a shout "Yes! Finally!" She was thrilled that her Pokemon was finally evolving and that showed on her face.

After several seconds the glow faded and her Pokemon had finally evolved into a Samurott. "This is great Jet, you finally evolved" she smiled more even happier and she called the Pokemon back before looking at Buster. She had been impressed by him in the battle so she was going to try her hardest to be nice to him. With a slight sigh she walked over to him. "u-um...that...was a great battle" she said extending her hand to him. "you sure impressed me"

Greiger · Aug 16, 2012

Sarah Reyes

At fast as lightening Orenji sped off with Maytec leaving both Blaze and Sarah behind in the dust. "Well.... yes.... he is rather energetic." She said after a while. Blaze just grunted in response. Angel, surprisingly, had stuck around after her trainer had ran off and decided to spry some of her powder on the two. Sarah giggled and watched it fall onto her hands, "Never had happiness powder spread on me." She said as Blaze smirked a bit.

Sarah saw that Angel was flying to her trainer, but still sprinkling the powder. "I guess she's leaving us a trail of breadcrumbs Blaze." She smiled at the sight. Blaze suddenly grabbed her in his arms and readied his legs and jumped right off the boat and down onto the dock and began to run down the powder trail that had been laid down for them. "Well, you always like a good chase." Sarah mused as Blaze ran after the orange trainer.

Ayame Akiko

Ayame smiled cheerfully as Dorian suggested to go to the food aisle. 'Yesss!!' She cheered full of energy. 'Let's goooo~' she grabbed Dorian's hand and started running with Hikari on her shoulder. Ayame ran up a staircase and ran through the hallways while making sure that Dee Dee wouldn't fall.

'We arrived our destination~' she stopped by the food aisle and clenched her hands. 'Itadakimasu~' she said as she bowed. 'Hehe, that means "let's eat" in japanese.' Ayame smiled at Dorian. Hikari was giggling because she found it cute how hyper Ayame was acting around Dorian right now. 'Shall we go to the caves after we've eaten breakfast?' Ayame asked, trying to calm down but still showing her cheerful smile.

Hikari started asking herself why Dorian's pokemon were almost never walking besides him, except for Queenie, but she came out whenever she wanted to, just like Obilivio, he was mostly only in his pokeball when he was sleeping or didn't felt like bothering Ayame or her.

Hikari jumped on the aisle and started to eat some chicken while contiuening to think.

George "Buster" Leggingsteele
Buster VS. Giselle - Second Fight, First Loss.

...On a Boat.
----------------------------------------------------------------

George lowered his gaze for a moment since his eyes stung a bit from looking up into the lights for too long. As the giant spot in front o his eyes went away, a new and bright light met him. For a moment he wondered what had happened, but when could make out the form of a big, four-legged Pokémon Buster understood what had happened. In fact, it all reminded him of the time Penumbra evolved, which made the young man smile.

In the place of a Dewott stood now a Samurott. It was a giant beast - somewhat resembling the love-child of an otter and a sea-lion - clad with shell-like armor. Buster knew that it was sort of like a knight or a samurai, with swords hidden in the knee-protecting structures on its body. In all honesty, George was amazed by the valiant aura surrounding the creature. Truly a magnificent sight that his little brother - who truly adored the Oshawott-family - would've loved to have seen.

Then the Samurott's trainer started talking. However, her voice was at a much softer tone now and she declared that he had impressed her. George could clearly hear that she wasn't used to being nice due to the stuttering way she pronounced the first words, but he just smiled on as usual and accepted her hand.

"Hey thanks!" He said as she helped him up, "Guess it's your time to help me get back up now, eh? Anyway, you were the one sure gave me a good match!" Buster stretched his arms a bit and let out a small yawn. "I guess we oughta' heal up our Pokémon for a bit, eh?" The young man started walkimg towards the nurse's office but quickly stopped. "Oh wait!" He exclaimed and turned to the girl, "I don't think I caught your name, what did you say it was?"

SylveonStar · Aug 16, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle smiled still as she helped Buster stand up. "I guess it is" she chuckled. "and it was a great battle, one of the best I've had in a long time" she smiled more taking a breath as she thought, "p-plus, I accomplished my goal" she stuttered before nodding in agreement with him as she took her hand back. "Healing our Pokemon sounds like a great idea, maybe we could show each other our other Pokemon while we wait" she suggested.

She was about to follow Buster to the Nurse's office when he suddenly stopped and asked her what her name was. "O-Oh right, my name. I never told it to you when I was so rude earlier." she looked at him as she walked over to him. "I'm Giselle O'Brien, don't have any nicknames, so it's just Giselle."

NightOfRemorse · Aug 17, 2012

Eve Murphy

The older woman with the handsome Blaziken appeared in the nurse's office and requested a heal for her Pokémon. Noticing Link, she made her way over and asked again for the battle that her fire Pokémon so craved. Eve blinked at the pair, incredibly tempted to watch the Blaziken and Link's Gliscor in combat.

Not only that, but she admired how calm Link was when battling, as she saw earlier when he faced the Gyarados. Remaining levelheaded was one definite way to improve your chances of winning a battle; not that winning was the only way to go, but it sure was nice. Eve wanted to pick up a few new strategies herself and watching other people was a great way to do so. It also gave her a strange warm feeling to see the usually grumpy boy so focused and determined to reach his goal.

Eve wanted to speak up and let them know that she was looking forward to watching their match, but she didn't want to rudely interrupt and was also a bit wary around older adults like this woman. Her own parents hadn't been around her for very long and her sister wasn't exactly sweet as a Chansey.

Link explained that he missed getting off at the Fuchsia City stop and didn't want a repeat of that to happen here at the Seafoam Islands. He was also intent on facing the gym leader, Blaine. Blaine specialized in training the fire type. Eve was curious as to why the gym leader had fire Pokémon while the Island's landmark was home to ice types. Was it because their natural weakness to his Pokémon helped him train them quicker?

"To the caves then?" Link asked. Eve looked at the woman quietly who then politely excused herself. The Blaziken did not want to leave his opponent, but then sullenly went off with his trainer as she tugged him by the arm. Eve looked at Link with a smile.

"Sure, let's go!" She was tempted to ask him to race her off the boat, but she didn't want to crash into anybody on the way out. She almost did, last time she decided to speed through. Eve walked out as fast as possible with Achilles quickly following, a calm smile on his face. Once they made it out of the ship, Eve peered around and noticed a brown mountain like structure in the distance.

"Come on!" she exclaimed, this time not hesitating to dash toward the cave, her raven black hair blowing backward. Achilles followed behind and in no time at all was at least a few yards in front of her. Even if Eve had been given a minute long head start, Achilles would still pass by her with ease. Despite all that time he spent lazing on her head, he was still a Sneasel and they were very agile and speedy creatures.

As she got closer and closer to the cave, Eve hoped she would be able to see the Articuno just to be able to gloat to Link. The problem was, she didn't know where the elusive bird generally stayed. Did it stay inside the cave, or did it ever leave to go elsewhere? After thinking about it, she decided that it wouldn't matter either way. If it did leave the island, they wouldn't see it now, no matter what they did. If it didn't leave the island, it had to be in the cave and so they surely had at least a tiny chance of seeing it. Eve stopped running and stood at the mouth of the cave. A dark abyss glared back at her as she stared in awe. "Whoa! Cool!" she remarked as she took small steps into the cave.

George "Buster" Leggingsteele
Making Friends
----------------------------------------------------------------

"Goal?" George asked as the girl mentioned that she accomplished her goal. "Oh!" He said after a few seconds of thinking, "You mean getting your Dewott to evolve? I gotta' say, that is one wickedly awesome Samurott. I bet its strenght improved massively after the evolution..." He made a small pause as to further think about what this mean on a general plane. But soon enough, he was at it again, "Thanks, this was also ome of the best ones I've had in a while too. Sure, I did battle this one dude who looked like a giant Torchic and made strange poses, but that battle got interrupted by this other dude's Litwick. It's actually been a while since I've battled a Water-type, and that was in the Cerulean City Gym." He said enthusiastically, "Although I kinda got my butt kicked there..." George added, a bit bemused.

"Giselle... I'll remember that!" Buster said as they walked towards the Nurse's Office. Although he thought it reminded him of some sort of reptile, but decided to not say anything in the event that it would offend her.

When they arrived in the Nurse's Office, Buster walked up to the counter and handed Penumbra's PokéBall to the nurse standing there. He politely requested one full healing and then walked to some of the couches they had in the room. When Gisemle had finished leaving her Samurott there, Buster took out his two other PokéBalls.

"So? You wanted to see the rest of my team?" He said happily and sent out the two other Pokémon he had on him. With two bright bursts of light, the form of a Skarmory with a damaged wing - as well as a murderous look upon its face - and a seemingly nervous Duskull materialized.
"Well," Buster began, "These two are my other team-members aside from Penumbra." He then pointed towards the Skarmory, "This is Eliza, although I advise you to not get too close to her, she's a bit cranky for getting blasted by a Heat Wave recently." George laughed and quickmy pulled back his finger as the agitated Skarmory had tried to chomp down on it.

"And this is Jarvis," he continued and pointed at the Duskull. Upon seeing the new human, Jarvis gave out a small yelp and tried to hide between his trainer's legs. Although the ghost peeked out its head once in a while. "You'll have to excuse him as well," Buster chuckled, "But he is a tad bit shy. Come on now, be nice and say hi to Giselle!" The Duskull carefully nodded and gave off a slight "Duuusss..." but he didn't leave the comfort of being behind George's legs.

SylveonStar · Aug 17, 2012

Giselle O'Brien

Giselle nodded as she listened to Buster talk. "That's pretty neat..well except for someone interrupting your battle, and I believe the Pokemon your talking about is a Blaziken." she paused thinking where she had seen one before. "At one point of the year my town is full of tourists I battled one with a Blaziken." she smiled softly at his enthusiasm. "I had a lot of trouble with a gym battle once too. My first one with Jet in Striaton City." she said as they reached the Nurse's Office.

After handing over Jet's Pokeball and requesting a full healing she went over and sat on a couch across from Buster. "That's a great looking Skarmory, I battled a very temperamental one in the Unova League" she said before looking at the Duskull hiding behind his legs. "A shy Pokemon. Sometimes I wish one of mine was a little shy, I've got a clam one, a headstrong one, and a quiet one but she's not shy. I'm not sure about my newest Pokemon though"

She then pulled out three Pokeballs and called out her other three Pokemon. Now in front of her looking curiously at Buster and his Pokemon where a Tepig and a Servine, both of which had a grayish black stone tied around their necks and a Dragonair. "These are my other Pokemon, the Tepig is Flara, the Servine is Rosie, and finally my new Dragonair his name is Draco"

Dorian Dammer

Dee Dee's heart beat faster as Ayame grabbed his hand and rushed towards the Food Aisle. She looked like in a really good mood, and with a lot of energy, and he thought she was cuter than usual when she was like that. But his mind was more focused on not tripping over on the way, as it was really hard for him to keep up with his best friend. Not before long they reached the Food Aisle, ready to have breakfast.

While Dorian tried to catch his breath, Ayame, who still had a whole lot of energy inside of her, suggested going to the caves after breakfast and taught him a japanese word. Dorian, with his face red, nodded, unable to say a word. But eventually his lungs allowed him to speak.

"S-Sounds...great..." he said, gasping, "Wh-what are you having? I-I'll have whatever you're having...then...go..."

Wow, dashing to the Food Aisle really took a lot out of poor Dorian Dammer. He started wondering one thing: where did Ayame get all that energy from? Was it the wonderful mean they had the day before? Or was it just her mood? Perhaps it was something else, but only Ayame could really know...

Baker's Bulbasaur · Aug 17, 2012

Link Hunter
''As Cold As Ice''
-------------------------------------------

The older woman who had introduced herself as Sarah Reyes smiled and agreed that they could save their battle until after Link had had time to explore the island.

Phew...

Link would not have been impressed had he ruined the chance to battle that Blaziken. Sarah turned to leave, reluctantly followed by the majestic fire Pokemon. It truly was a beautiful sight to see, it would be a shame to have to attack it so viciously at some point later...

Upon his suggestion to explore the caves, Eve enthusiastically agreed and the two left the medical centre up the stairs, and began making their way towards the ships exit deck. Links female companion seemed to have a spring goose in her step, as if she was holding back to temptation to dance into a sprint. She was certaintly a lot keener then we was to reach the caves, not that Link didn't want to go, there were things to see and a Gym Leader to be fought, but the island so close to his place of birth came hand in hand with terrible memories, and of course where an island with so much water surrounding it exists, there exist also many water Pokemon...

As they took their last step off the ship, Eve came to a halt and her eyes rose along the gigantic brown mountain which was one of the main eye catchers of the islands. This mountain had once been a Volcano, and it's previous eruption some years ago was the main reason that its neighbour Cinnabar Island was forced to do some remodelling, including moving the Gym to Seafoam. Link was so captivated by memories of childhood, along with history lessons he had been given by his brother Michael about the two islands that he almost jumped out of his skin when Eve burst into a run

''Come on!''

She exclaimed excitedly as her Sneasel broke into a run after her, easily catching up and taking the lead.

Link stood perfectly still, feeling slightly embarrassed and unsure of what to do, there was no reason for him to make a fool out of himself too, then again, he didn't want to lose her company...strangely

''...She'll need someone to keep her safe on the island''

Link lied to himself, also breaking into a run after her.

Watching her run, Link was enthralled by her long raven hair swimming through the air, this girl had a glow about her that Link had not seen before. He noticed her still staring up at the peak of the mountain, perhaps still amazed at the sight of the mountain? He would ask later.

While running Link serveyed many scenes, lots of passengers who had also made their way off of the boat and were exploring the shore, releasing theeir Pokemon and seemed to be enjoying themselves. His interest was particuarly stolen for a moment by a young girl with what he could make out to be a Ninetales that he seemed to recognise seeing earlier, as well as a Jolteon, and a....

What colour was that Rattatta?...

Eventually Eve came to a halt at the caves opening and stared inside. Link caught up quickly and joined her staring into the mouth of the beast. He listened and watched as she expressed her interest to the cave and began walking inside; Link smirked his famous smirk and walked in after her.

The sight of the inside of the cave was certainly something to see. The entrance size didn't give it justice. The would be 'room' they were now in was easily the width of the entire S.S.Anne, and at least thirty foot tall. Each step they took into the monster made a resounding echo chant off the walls and took a good few seconds to disappear beyond the human ear. There were two choices of ways to go, one on the right which had clearly been influenced by mankind as there were two statues either side of the walls. The statues were both of Pokemon. One was a Charizard, beautifully crafted out of black stone, and its tail was actually on fire, lighting the bleak cave. The other was a Typhlosion, just as beautiful with its back also on fire further lighting the cave. From looking further down that particular tunnel of the cave, Link could see more statues, all of various fire type Pokemon, at at the end was a huge arc that had clearly been added to the caves natural materials, clearly showing the way to the Pokemon gym.

Link turned his attentions to the second choice of directions, a lot darker, but somewhat more beautiful. Thin ice spread on the ceiling and sides of the tunnel, deep blue and glittering like rubies. This tunnel went a lot further down and curved out of view, obstructing anyone from seeing where it led without exploring themselves. This would obviously lead one deeper into the caves.
Link was keen to have his gym battle, but he was also interested to explore the cave further, he turned to face Eve, hoping her expression or words would give some insight to her interest.

Orenji: SUPER CAVE EXPLORATION TEAM GO! (Sort of)

Orenji was now side by side with Maytec, their previous feud forgotten. But just as revenge he returned the Rotom to his pokeball early, sending out Troll and Wolfsbane in its place, Angel close behind, some happiness powder falling for some reason. All three stood at attention. "Nido!" "Sablye!" "Kiss-Kiss!" The orange ensemble smiled.

"Alright everyone, we are at the Seafom Islands, and as you know their is a totally awesome cave that is begging to be explored. So we're going in! Carpe Diem and all that jazz!" The trio before him had diffrent reactions. Troll was drooling, caves usually mean delectable gems and stones. Wolfsbane seemed eager, his chest puffing out showed his desire to face any strong opponents hiding in the cave. Angel sighed and smiled, there was no way her trainer would pass up a chance for a cave.

The teen goes into a full on sprint, all present pokemon close behind. Well, Angel and Wolfsbane were actually moving, Troll just hitched a ride on the Nidorino. However after a minute or so of going at full speed, he noticed people suddenly getting closer to him.
"Crap crap crap crap crap!" It was Link and Eve, and he was sure none of them would like him crashing into them. "Watch out you two!" came the shout from his position behind them. So he decides to try and hit the brakes, almost falling over. However he manages to right himself and does a Sentai pose in triumph.

Which gets ruined by a Togekiss knocking him over, powder splashing about in a..... well, powdery, explosion. He helped himself up, still abit dizzy, imaginary Torchic tweeting around his head, or was that Angel checking if he was ok? "Oi, did anyone catch the liscence plate of that truck?" Just as he manages to fully right himself, he is knocked over again, face first into the dirt. Nidorinos tend to make that happen when running into people at high speeds. Wolfsbane was upside down, his horn stuck in the dirt as a result of the collision, flaling about futily. Troll just walked over to his trainer, reached into his bag, and pulled out an especially gorgeous uncut diamond. He eyed the other trainers, seemingly offering Link the diamond, then after a few seconds pulled his hand back and proceded to tear into it like it just insulted his mother. It was a tasty diamond. Eat your heart out human.
