Ancient Dynasty; A Viper's Promise

Not open for further replies.
OOC: Erm...nope, you aren't one of them, Melissa. Tis' only the re-entry folks. But don't worry, you too will come to know and (As if) love this new stranger. Promise. ^-^

Incidentally, any Showgan members reading this...you do realize that I've added an IC part to my last OOC, right?

IC:

"Polite?" Valen echoed at Reina's comment, "I was merely trying not to encourage them, people like those..." his tone sounded slightly bitter, "Only hear what they want to hear. Tell them to go away and they'll think you're playing hard to get, tell them that you hate them and they'll just be convinced that you're in denial...you can't win, which is why I thought it was best just to ignore them. And anyway, I really didn't have the energy. Besides-" he paused, suddenly experiencing the distinct sensation of being watched. Quickly turning around, the boy just barely managed to catch a glimpse of white garment and something teal between a couple of nearby trees, and then...nothing. He blinked once, wondering if he was beginning to get a bit delusional and perhaps partially because of that, failing to glimpse the slightly over-active motion of the grass on that spot.

OOC: *is almost dead from playing too much Kingdom Hearts* Gah... I really need to level up more... that stupid dragon in the Mulan world took almost 15 minutes to beat!! X_____X My hand is sore from so much button-mashing.

And goodie! I love to get to know new characters!! Phweee!

*is one of the 'Showgan crowd'* *had no idea Alter added an IC* *walks away sheepishly*


Reina
------------------

Valen wasn't the only one who had turned quickly to see if anyone was watching them. Tabansi had as well, though he his reflexes hadn't been any quicker than the boy's, seeing as he was a bulky bug. The only reason he had seen anything at all was because he was already looking in a direction close to where whatever it was had been. He frowned, feeling a bit confused as to what had been there, and looked back at Reina and Valen.

"Wha...? What was it?" Reina asked the two of them, not having sensed much of anything. She wasn't any expert on stealth, and hadn't had much experience on being secretly watched.

{I saw... white, and some color though I couldn't tell what color. Some sort of blue I think, but it was so fast I'm not 100 percent sure,} the Heracross spoke up, wishing he could differentiate better with colors. He could see colors, but it was difficult to tell the many shades apart. For insects, all you really needed to know was if there was a flower nearby, and for Heracross, they didn't really deal with flowers, so their colors were even more limited. Reds and greens looked almost the same to him, blues and purples were almost indistinguishable against each other, and yellow was the only color that he could really recognize without conscious effort.
 
An icy sheen glimmered across the surface of Chain's gold-tinged eyes at the demand of Kyoko's Shuppet. So, I suppose that Shuppet was present long enough to hear the conversation I had with Valen and Reina. The trainer briefly glanced at Kyoko before passing his gaze over Rosairie and refocusing it on the ghost Pokemon. It appears that we cannot continue without my revealing some amount of information. But, how much is it safe for me to tell them?

After taking a slight breath, Chain spoke quietly. "I said what I felt was necessary, and I don't regret it. But, if you want to know more . . ." Here, Chain's voice dropped a note lower. "I heard from a certain source that there was once a project funded by WaiWai Inc. that had rather disconcerting results. Apparently, the project researched the use of sound to affect Pokemon behavior. Several injuries resulted, and many believed the injuries were not accidental. But, whatever the case, the project was discontinued and the project leader vanished."

Chain's eyes shifted toward Kyoko's Shuppet. "If you have anything you want to add, feel free to do so." He paused. "But, as for myself, that's all I feel would be safe to reveal at the moment."

-----------------------------------

Circuit's deliberation process was momentarily interrupted as several alerts activated within its mind. An energy source suddenly appeared before vanishing as quickly. A second energy source, however, was swiftly approaching as it activated a program. As a black room began to form itself about Circuit, the Porygon automatically triggered its combat system. Then, with little warning, a spear-shaped figure darted toward Circuit.

Not moving, the Porygon surrounded itself with a green energy shield--Protect. Immediately following this, Circuit turned toward Iris and permitted the shield to be shattered as it released a Psybeam.

"White...and something greenish." Valen replied, unaware of what Tabanasi was saying as he continued to scan the nearby greenery with newfound caution, "Whoever or whatever it is...they sure know their stealth, though." he added after a while, "There isn't as much as a trace of them now."

The boy took a brief pause, "We should move on." he remarked, "With all this vegetation around us we're an easy target if it's a skilled climber, we should...head back into the crowds..." the tone of his voice made it clear that he wasn't particularly pleased by this prospect, "That way we'll be harder to track, not to mention relatively safe from any ambush attempts."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, out in the streets, the teal-haired woman suddenly reappeared into view from her previous flurry of a motion, the sudden appearance going largely unnoticed due to the sheer amount of people around her. Reaction skills...quite decent... she noted for herself, Except for the barbarian...she couldn't spot a spy unless someone screamed and pointed it out for her. Now then...who's next...hmm? her smile spread a bit as she noticed no less than two familiar sets of thought patterns in one of the nearby buildings, smoothly navigating her way through the crowds and stepping into the pokémon center through the main entrance.

The woman had to suppress a small snicker as she noticed one of the youths from before standing there in his pyjamas.

That imp is here too... she added for herself, stealing a quick glance at Fable, Well, it should be allright...I'm playing medium here anyway and I doubt that it's trained enough to tell patterns apart. And even if it is...well, it's not like its little mistress remembers any of this now, is it?

"Ohh...isn't it a bit late to go back to bed, dear boy?" she commented to JJ, giving him a polite smile, "Today is a big day after all...oh, but I'm forgetting my manners." she straightened her pose a bit, "I'm Astra Kiseki, psychic extaordinaire, at your service." she nodded at both the blonde and the girl he had been adressing, "Congratulations on your tournament placings, by the way." she added, "I take it, you have already heard about the ceremony?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iris merely bounced a bit back as she came into contact with the Protect forcefield, quickly regaining her composure as the Psybeam came flying towards her, the Porygon 2's entire body briefly turning fuzzy before snapping back into focus again, now in the shape of a hammer which bore a coating similar to polished steel which also seemed to take the edge away from her opponent's attack, a quick adaption of the Conversion 2 technique. The virtual pokémon floated back just a bit more to completely regain her balance before charging forward in another Double Edge attack, intent on wearing out her opponent's defensive powers through sheer hammering.

Rosairie glanced to Chain. What he was saying made sense; the monk's peculiar chanting had backfired, and Rosairie could see why any leader might want to leave.
She rumaged in her bag for Henna's pokeball, and released her partner. The magmar stretched and groaned, rubbing her back irratably.
{Finally!} She moaned, before spotting Rosairie and her friend's serious expressions. She raised an eyebrow, but said no more.

{ooc| Really bad, short post.}
 
OOC: Guh... have a paper to write today in addition to studying for a test in Botany that I am doomed in. >.>; Too much Kingdom Hearts... so I'm blaming it. ^^; Of course my procrastination has NOTHING to do with it! Really!!

*dies*

Anyway... I don't think Reina could spot a spy unless 'someone screamed and pointed it out for her'. ^___^ That's what Heracross are for. XD


Reina
----------------

"Oh...," Reina said, feeling a little stupid, "I wish I had more experience in stealth. You don't exactly get much experience on that when you spend much of your time in a small town family construction business. The only people I ever had to worry about spying on me were dumb girls from school, and my brothers. Neither of those groups were very smart, either."

She did agree about moving on though. This place was surrounded by many places to hide, and even Reina could see that. Tabansi clicked his wings in thought.

{Yes, I agree, let's go. It's not good to stand around the spot you've just discovered you were being watched at,} the bug pokemon said to Reina, who was taking a last look at the ominous list of the tournament winners.

"Yeah, I'm with you two, let's get away from here," she paused briefly, "Besides, I can tell that Valen's just dying to go back into the crowds of people so that he can 'rub elbows' with all kinds of lovely individuals!" Reina replied sarcastically in an obviously mock flowery voice that was the result of noticing Valen's displeasure.
 
-OoC-

Whoohoo. Sealed Tron for the LAST time... and got my butt handed to me on a silver platter in two hits from Sephy. @_@ he's so much harder than KH1... and I'm only level 40. xD Which could be a problem.



-IC-

/....Kyoko be careful around him./

/Why? He's just like Nii-sama.../

/No, he's not./

/Yes he is!/

/No.... he's not. There's something about him I don't like... Return me to my ball please so I can think./

Kyoko shrugged, withdrawing her Shuppet before turning to the others, "Well guys, why are we standing around here still? We should get going. There's no way I'm gunna let those two meanies walk away with the prize without a fight! I may not like the situation but Nee-chan can agree that we don't like bein' outta the loop."

She tossed out a pokeball, "Minna, see if you can catch the waves of any electric- Oh no."

The electric mouse had emerged... and immediatly pounced on Henna's head, curling into the warmth with a soft cute little sign. It wasn't hurting the other pokemon, not at all, it was starting to think of Henna as a Mommy figure... and that was only because the magmar was warm and Minna was not.

Purring lightly, the pokemon seemed to be dozing off.

"....Um... Nee-chan... You think Henna will mind her new hat too much?" she blinked lightly as she turned, walking a little ways ahead, "Iku! Let's go!"
 
After casting a brief glance toward Kyoko's newly-released Minun, Chain sighed slightly. Then, turning, he started toward the Pokemon Center front room, replying, "You're right. We should get going . . . Abra can teleport us to the WaiWai Inc. building once we get outside." He noted the time displayed upon the nearest clock. "We may be early, though." Returning his gaze forward, Chain fell silent as his thoughts shifted elsewhere. I wonder how Circuit is doing . . .

-----------------------

Executing Attack Pattern VII. As the Porygon 2 burst forward with another Double-Edge, Circuit again refrained from moving. Simply accepting the full force of the attack with the intention of providing its opponent with the maximum recoil, the Porygon then quickly backed away from Iris, using Recover to regain its strength as it continued to move. Then, slowing its movement, digital electricity began to spark about Circuit as it prepared an attack.

[OOC: I apologize for my rather pathetic post. ::tired:: I should probably post in Mutation Wave soon . . . ]
 
Avery hadn't expected to find JJ again so soon after she had left the room. In fact, she had barely gotten past opening the door when JJ called her name, approaching from the side. The girl was immediately overjoyed to be in the company of a familiar person, and so she didn't even notice that the boy was dressed in pajamas.

She opened her mouth in preparation to drown JJ in joyous greeting, followed by a barrage of questions, but of course the blonde instantly fell to one knee, clutching his head as if he had a major headache. That reminded Avery of her own headache, but now obviously wasn't the time to comment on that.

"Uh, what's wrong? Do you need to lie down?" Avery exclaimed, only now beginning to recall how JJ had fainted the other day. Wait, that was only just yesterday.. wasn't it? In any case, the memory made her very nervous, a feeling which did not go away even though JJ stood back up as fast as he could, and certainly not when a rather odd woman appeared (seemingly out of nowhere) to address JJ.

Avery blinked, turning her attention to this new woman, who eventually introduced herself as Astra Kiseki. A psychic of some sort? Apparently Fable was doing the same, although he was being unusually quiet about it. She could feel the Sableye shifting on her head.. but it wasn't like him to be uncomfortable around anyone unless he thought they were overly weird or something.

"Excuse me, Miss Astra.." Avery began, quite confused over how this woman knew JJ, "..but what ceremony are you talking about?"
 
No sooner then JJ had regained his footing, Avery was already near enough at his side, but she wasn't alone. He turned his head harshly towards the sound of a strange mytical voice which has just sounded, one he did not know of.
''ceremony...'' he muttered to no one inparticular, while Avery addressed the woman on the ceremony.
He ran a hand slowly through his hair, and locked his eyes on the woman
''Astra Kiseki?...Psychic Extrodinaire?...'' He said to her, giving no signs of wanting a response. Something wasn't right, his head strain had for the first time, completely gone. Since it started it had gone from bad to worse but was always there but now...it was like an instantanious cure to the sound of her voice.
This woman, what did she want? Why was she addressing himself and Avery? And why did the male have such a strong feeling that all wasn't right about her? Casually, he smiled
''Well...Good Morning Miss Kiseki, yes, yes I'm quite alright thankyou, but, sorry to be so arupt, but how do you know who I am? I mean, t know I have placed in the ceremony would assume you know me, but alas I have never even heard of you, so...yeah...how do you know us?''
He finishes with one raised eyebrow, but if she really was a psychic extrodinaire, JJ knew the answer to his question already.
 
Rosairie laughed as Minna curled up on her Magmar's head.
Henna smiled, enchanted by the tiny creature. {Bless her litte cotton socks...} she whispered, grinning at Rosairie. The girl rolled her eyes. Henna never could say no to anything cute and furry.

The girl watched as Kyoko bounced off. She shrugged at Chain. "'S better to be early than late." She paused. The boy seemed preoccupied. "You okay?" she asked.
 
OOC: I swear...real life is out to get me...I've been mostly bed-ridden today because of a seriously sore throat coupled with headaches, exhaustion and all that loveliness. -.- Anyways, going to post now and then have a lie-down again...this is going to be another slow day for me...~_~

IC:

"Yes, I imagine you wouldn't." Valen replied to Reina's first comment, nodding, "But perhaps it's for the best...paranoia isn't always a good instinct to develop, especially not if you plan on working with others, and frankly..." he took a brief pause, "Sometimes...I wish I wouldn't need it, but the world being what it is..." he fell silent again, but couldn't resist responding to Reina's cheeky remark about crowds, "Rub elbows, you say?" he asked, "Now there's a plan, I was thinking more along the lines of tracking down my fan club from yesterday." the last remark was made in an obviously sarcastic tone. As if he would ever be caught bounding after a bunch of skirt-clad imbeciles like some lost puppy, "At any rate, let's go." he concluded, taking up a fairly fast stride as he navigated his way towards the streets again, "The ceremony is approaching, anyway."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Oh it's quite alright..." the woman who had introduced herself as Astra replied, "No doubt I seem a bit of my noodle to be speaking to you like an old aquintance, although in a way it's perhaps fitting. To answer your question first, sweetie..." she turned her gaze to Avery, smirking inwardly at how completely clueless these two were of what was standing right in front of them, "I was speaking of the award ceremony for yesterday's tournament, your names are listed all over town. Now as for your question, dear boy..." she now turned her gaze to JJ, "Well, suffice to say that as a psychic, I have a certain...interest in people of exceptional prowess. This being the case...I must admit having observed you rather intently during yesterday's tournament." she took a brief pause, "Ah, but you expected me to say something along the lines of 'my senses told me', didn't you?" she added, giving off one of her girlish giggles, "If you did then I'm afraid that I'll have to dissapoint you, I'm the real deal, not just some cheap parlour act. And furthermore..." she added, "I know your grandfather quite well, Jeffrey James..." Know him, allright... she added in her mind, masterfully surpressing another giggle, ...easily enough to make your head spin, little boy. "...and have thus come to know you by association, although I'm quite dissapointed that he never mentioned me. Oh, well..." she concluded, "I suppose I can't blame him, age does play tricks on the mind..." she took a brief pause, "How is your grandfather doing, by the way?" the woman continued in a coversational tone, "I dare say that I have heard very little of him as of late."
 
OOC: Aw! Poor Alter and his sore throat-ness! I actually haven't been sick in a while. Though I don't doubt I'll catch something with the way the weather has been around here lately. It's supposed to get up to 81 F today! And the weekend is supposed to be around 90 F! *dies* Too... early... for summer. >.< I can't wait until August when the temperature rises to 115 F. You can cook an egg on the sidewalk with that heat.

BTW, I made a quick Oekaki piccie last night! It's an Azumarill!

Anyway...


Reina
-----------------

Reina had to chuckle at Valen's response to her comment. She was hoping to lighten the mood a little since they were about to go into this quite ominous ceremony. It wasn't that she didn't think of it seriously, on the contrary, she thought it was very serious; but it wasn't good to walk into a situation like this so tense. She knew at least that much from her experiences. Sometimes when you're anticipating something bad, you get so intense and rigid that you wear yourself out and don't think as clearly. It was important to relax a little at least in some ways.

Tabansi kept watch as he and Reina kept up with Valen's quick pace. The cobalt beetle was observing the crowds, making sure nothing looked suspicious. He wasn't walking though, but flying about a foot from the ground.

Reina saw the crowd of people they were now mulling through and glanced down at her vigilant friend. "Uh, Tabansi, I think you should return. You could easily get stolen or lost in this crowd of people, and you know your horn almost always ends up bashing someone like a spear," she said, eyeing him intently, "Also you need to conserve your energy." She knew he would protest anyway.

{I can't just leave you alone at a time like this!} he said in his raspy voice, louder than usual.

"Return Tabansi," Reina said flatly, procuring Tabansi's ball and holding it out, "If trouble shows up then you can lend a hand. Besides, Valen's here too so I'm not, as you said, 'alone'." This wasn't up for discussion. Aside from what she had already cited as reasons, she was sure that it would not be wise to keep pokemon out at this ceremony. She also did not want to look defensive or afraid in front of this Slythe person; or anyone else for that matter.
 
Jeffery who had been listening with some interest, but wasn't really taking a lot in due to his continuous trail of thought, trying to work some things out in his head, exactly what he was trying to figure out he had no idea...
Suddenly he jumped to attention.

''hmm..mmm...wha, Wha?! My grandfather, you...you know him?'' JJ spluttered with suprise. This confirmed it, there was defenitely something strange about this woman...apart of course frm the fact that she claimed to have supernatrual powers and unceremoniously invited herself into their lives...but, how exactly is confirmed it the blonde dudn't know...but something was just telling him to have an excuse to not like this woman, so he'd figure that one out later.

''oh...uum, he's, ill. Very ill at the moment, it...it isn't looking good...''
Great, all he needed was another conversation about a topic that made him feel terrible inside, adding itself to what felk like sticky gum which had replaced itself with his vital organs...
Jeffery raised a hand which he began to brush through his blonde hair, when he suddenly realised that he was still wearing Pjamas.
He turned to Avery
''Anyway, yeah, theres this ceremony, for all the people who done the best in the tournament...and we're both invited'' he said with a confused face, his breathing getting faster
''and if you think that's a suprise, just look at who else is gonna be there.'' He finished, indicating the TV screen not far behind them.
Turning back to the strange woman, he looked her up and down suspiciously, his head was still perfectly fine, but telling him many things, most of which were hard to dicipher, but it was evident to him that this woman was not to be trusted.
''Now Miss, please pardon me, but i would like to change before we head off, so if there wasn't anything else?'' he spoke casually, ending with a raised eyebrow.
 
-OoC-

;-; -gives lemon drops to Alter along with tea-

Dish will make eet bedder.

By the way, if I mess up the directions here, tell me and I'll edit.

Edit

I don't know if I'll be able to get back on today. I had a sub in one of my classes (My teacher's 10 month old can't stop throwing up. ;_; -whimper- Poor baby) and one student decided to use it as an excuse (Since subs don't do anything) to harass me the entire hour along with his buddies. I get picked on by this particular student quite alot so I did ignore him til he crossed the line. Towards the end of the hour, he drew a picture of me that was not flattering in the least. I was unable to see it myself but I was told by the student who threw it away it was pretty bad. (She said the three who drew it were saying I looked better in the picture than I did in the mirror) The entire class aside from four students saw it and joined in the teasing for the rest of the hour. My opinions and comments on the lecture were constantly subjected to taunts and teasings and nobody took me seriously.

So yeah. I'm filling a harassment charge against the student (I've been told it's about time I stood up to him) and it's probably gunna eat my day. Soooooo~

^^ Get better soon Alter! -hands ice cream- =3 Ice cream is good. -nodnod- as are soft soothing warm drinks. And slushies. @_@ Get deh slushies.

-IC-

Kyoko blinked, having to stop and wait from time to time for the slow pokes behind her and eventually gave up on it and ran on ahead, getting the board within just a few minutes. Squinting lightly, she did indeed see her name, Rosairie's, Chain's, Valen's, Reina's and a few other names she didn't reconize. What bothered her was the burning feeling in her chest that soon accompanied Valen's name as she read over and as her hand clutched at the fabric covering her flesh, she turned in the general direction Valen and Reina had headed off in not too long ago. Something... was wrong here.

I'm not letting my guard down anymore. Something's going on here... tearing off towards the place she'd been instructed to go to via that board, her senses and mind back on their more mature levels. Rosairie and Chain would catch up. Watching her feet hit the pavement at quite an amazing speed for a kid her size, her mind reeled I don't like him... I just don't like him. Something about him sets off all the warning bells in my head... but if I somehow get closer to him... no, don't think that way Kyoko. You promised Nii-san you won't use people like that anymore. Shaking the now unwanted feeling off, she turned her attention to the path ahead of her and spotted a teal haired woman dead center, along with two (three?) other Rosairie-sized people near her.

Panting lightly, she stopped her face paced pursuit, hands pressed to her knees, body bent over slightly, "M-m-ma'am do you, k-k-know w-where th-the ceremony bu-building is?" As her breathing slowed back to normal, she looked up at the other two. One guy, one girl. The guy looked...like he had one hell of a hang over and the girl was... a normal girl in Kyoko's eyes, "Sorry to... uh... bother you. But I think I'm lost."

OOC: Mika, that's horrible...;_; You've got the right idea, though, sue those bastards' arses off! XO And as an additional insurance...sue/report that substitute teacher for neglecting his/her duties, people like that need to be sacked and permanently stricken off from the list of possible substitutes, so don't give up until that happens..might help the next one to take their job seriously..<_< Seriously, you've got rights, and I agree...buttmunches like that need to be stood up to immediately and without remorse. I don't know about your school system, but around here we have a whole bunch of lovely little rules against stuff like that...so let's pull out that rule book and hit them with everything available: notes home, penalties to grades, parent-teacher conferences, ohh...even suspension if you can. Oh, and take up practicing martial arts as well...that way, if (Or rather, when) they start messing with you again you can shock them with a well placed throw, all in the spirit of self-defence. >D In short, give em' hell, Mika. And good luck with your lawsuit.

Seriously, there are complete bastards out there...like this one guy who drove over a certain person I happen to know off, not only did said bastard just drive away from the scene, but afterwards he came and - get this - demanded compensation for his damaged windshield. <_< That dude got what was coming to him, though, as his victim had ended up with a fair bit of glass shards in his head (undisputable proof of the incident) and an impressive plaster casing to boot. So yeah, there's at least some justice in this world...

Oh, and I think I'm getting better...still coughing...not to mention my terribly runny nose, but my head feels clearer now and I'm less tired. Oh, and also...G4 laborations were today, and I got to keep my share of our...excess research material. So here, Mika...*Gives chocolate* hope you won't let those people (and I use the term loosely) spoil too many of your days. ^^ And sorry about what happened to you, I know what it feels like...I've had to put up with crap like that for six friggen' years. <_<

Anyways, yeah...I'm a bit too fired up to compose an IC at the moment. Maybe a bit later...*Prances off to get more chocolate...and make some voodoo dolls. >D*
 
OOC: Aww Mika! *huggles* ;.; I feel so sorry for you! I can't stand teasing; it's so awful! Luckily for me, I was fairly shy and quiet, and so most people didn't really even notice me enough to make fun of. I have had my share of teasing though, I can assure you of that. There used to be this group of popular guys that were big jerks (though some of them just acted like jerks because their 'leader' was... oh yeah... strong individuals there... :cheeky: ) and they took it upon themselves to harass me anytime they could in my art class about how this semi-retarded kid liked me and that I should go out with him. -.- They were chickens though, one day I just got tired of it and demanded them to tell me why they did these things to me when I had done nothing to them. They all just shuffled their feet and when I began to address some of them individually, they all left their 'leader' standing in front of me alone. These same guys used to spray cologne all over one of my friends who was really allergic to perfume (and they were aware of this of course) and she got horrible asthma attacks from them. She actually had to get restraining orders for them, and they also got suspended for like a week or something. It was serious though, they could have killed her.

Then a year later when we were graduating, the Student Council (which is a code name for "Stuck-Up Popular People That Want a Period Where they Eat Pizza and Do Nothing") paired up my allergic friend with the leader of this pack of boys, thinking it would be a good laugh.

My goodness, all through Junior High I got teased probably twice a day about my choice of clothes, friends, hair style, shoes, refusing to wear makeup; it was like everyone else but me had suddenly become an expert on fashion and what it meant to be a girl. >.>

All I can say is that I agree with Alter. Do all you can to them, because usually these people do the worst things to people who don't fight back. Get plenty of support from your friends and family, because (as I'm sure you already know) those are the people that will make you feel good about yourself. Aww, Mika... I'm sure there's nothing wrong with your appearance. Those guys are just jerks. And that sub reminds me of this one sub I had in my high school Personal Growth (Sex Ed.) class. She just sat by and did nothing while one of my best friends was being laughed at and teased by various people in the class. That sub was crazy though... o.o Anyway, good luck Mika, and certainly don't worry about here, you should be focusing on other things.

Erm... *looks at size of OOC post* Uh... sorry Alter... but teasing makes me angry! Especially if its our Mika being teased!! *gives Alter and Mika cake because she's secretly the Cake Fairy* ^-^

BTW Alter, that boy man *cough* that you talked about that ran over that other boy... sounded scary. o.o And selfish. He shall die as a very lonely and sad man someday methinks.

{ooc| MIKA!!!! *cuddles* Sweetie, those people SUCK. And, yeah, you're doing the right thing. You should follow Alter's advice, too.

I must admit, when I was in Primary School (or junior high, to you Americans) I was a right little biatch, as me and my two best friends were the 'cool girls' in our school, which happened to be a very small village school. We ruled over the rest of the girls in our year, almost. xD I mean, there were only 10 or 11 of us, but we were the popular ones everyone copued. Not sure why. Anyway, we used to be really harsh, like we got all the girls to shun one girl once because she bought an awesome blue sparkley recorder and not a black/brown one like the rest of us had...and then, because this girl DARED to be different, we told her she had to get a new one because no one would talk to her until she did. And no one did. I mean, we were only about seven then, and we thought we were EVER so cool, but we really were horrible... I shudder when I look back on it.
Now I'm very lovely =3
When I first joined the school I'm in now, all of our girlies were put in different 'tutor groups'; I got put with my two best friends, but everyone else got put elsewhere, and gradually me and my friends lost our little followers as they sort of...flcoked after other girls.
Then, hell we got a shock.
WE got bullied.

Yeah, so I always do feel guilty because when I was younger, because I was like.... a meanie. When I moved up and I suddenly realised how it felt, I really wanted to die.

Also, Melissa; in England we have to wear uniforms, and make-up[ is not allowed or anything. I whinge about this, but I guess it protects us from unnessacery scorn from our peers.}
 
OOC: No worries, Melissa, on a subject like this I'm completely symphatetic towards pure OOCs. *Growls at school bullies* Yeah, they're cowards when it comes down to it...except for the insane individuals. But those usually manage to get themselves suspended.

As for the dude who did the run-over thing...he's not a boy, he's a full grown man (well over 30 as I recall), which only goes to show that there are complete jerks in all generations. <.<

"If trouble shows up then you can lend a hand. Besides, Valen's here too so I'm not, as you said, 'alone'."

Had he not been so well indoctrinated into hiding his feelings, Valen would probably have blinked in surprise. It was a silly thing, but he couldn't help feeling a bit touched by someone actually using his presence as a reason not to need extra protection as the case tended to be exactly the opposite. The boy once again felt the peculiar sensation from before creeping up on him, this instinctive need to keep Reina safe from anything and everything that might possibly pose a treath to her. Trust...how long had it been since anyone had actually given him that? In fact, had anyone, anyone except Seirini and Kachiko, ever given him that? And what...what was this strange sensation? It was one of those high and noble values he had never considered to amount to more than corny buzzwords...friendship. Yes, whether this was a fully rational trail of thought or not, he definitely considered this stubborn redhead next to him a friend...a real friend. And he'd be dead before he would allow Slythe or any of that slimeball's lackeys to hurt her.

"But of course..." Astra chirped melodically at JJ's last question, continuing to smile politely despite the boy's suspicious manner, "...no-one was ever stopping you. Have a good day, dear boy..." she soon turned her attention elsewhere as young girl came running towards her, quite out of breath by the time she stopped and, rather shakily, asked for directions to the ceremony. And what's more, she noted with amusement, this girl was another one of the eight tournament winners, her patterns quickly made that clear, and judging by the way that two of the remaining ones had been looking after her during the tournament, they probably wouldn't be too far off either.

"But of course, my dear." she replied in her previous sweet, melodical voice, "I was heading in that direction anyway, so I can guide you along." the woman took a brief pause, studying the rather shaky and weak-looking girl in front of her, "And you would be...another one of the tournament winners, no?" she added in a tone of polite curiosity, "Yes, I do believe I noticed your name on one of the boards around here. Kyoko, no? I am Astra Kiseki, pleased to meet you." she nodded briefly in acknowledgement, "But...and please do not take this as an insult, my dear...how is it that you did so well in the competition? After all, you are...rather young, and by my tell things got quite rough out there." there was a slight twinkle in her clear blue eyes, "What is your edge, sweet one?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iris tumbled back a bit from the recoil of her attack, but soon steadied herself again, letting out a slightly annoyed beep at the quick recovery of her opponent. Now of course she could do the same, so this hardly granted her opponent an edge, but it did mean that the battle would be considerably longer.

{Commencing attack pattern 17} the virtual pokémon concluded, sounding quite much like her unevolved opponent as she unleashed a barrage of Toxic goo at her opponent before morphing once more, her body now taking up the shape of a large shield as it hardened to further increase her endurance. The Porygon 2 was protected from all kinds of poisons bby her steel type, but her opponent...well, he wasn't, was he? If the opponent wanted a stallgame then a stallgame he would have.

[OOC: I hope you feel better soon, Alter Ego. Also, + Mika +, I am sorry and hope that everything works out for you. Reading the OOCs, I feel as though I have led a rather sheltered life. ^-^;;]

"Hn?" Chain was snapped from his reverie at Rosairie's inquiry. Turning toward her, the trainer nodded, replying, "Yeah. I was just thinking about the ceremony." He paused, casting a quick glance about the area. "Speaking of which, it seems Kyoko has gone to the ceremony ahead of us." Considering her sense of direction, I wonder when she'll make it, though . . . Chain placed a hand against his head, sighing quietly before shifting his gaze toward Rosairie. "Would you prefer to look for Kyoko, or should we just keep going?"

Attack incomplete. Implement evasion techniques until attack is prepared. Still surrounded by electrical charge, Circuit activated Agility--moving with enough speed to dodge the Toxic before coming to a halt a short distance away from Iris' left side. Immediately, the Porygon unleashed a Zap Cannon toward its evolved form before re-activating its Agility to move a relatively safe distance away.
