"You can't eat OR sleep?...That's pretty bad..."

He muttered, staring confusingly at Terra and wondering what was inside her that caused all of this. It all seemed almost impossible to believe, but he was pretty sure that Terra wouldn't be the type to lie to people.

The Quilava glanced up at Terra, but soon stared at the Umbreon as it popped out of one of Terra's Pokeballs. He stared curiously at the Umbreon, wondering what it was, for he had never seen one like that before.
 
{Terra....it...it's staring at me....}
The Umbreon said to Terra, not liking being stared at.
Terra shook her head and sighed.
"Yeah...it's bad, but you get used to it after a while...I guess."
She muttered softly, looking down at both pokemon.
"So what Shadow? People stare at me all the time."
{That's because-}
"Say another word and I'll kill you."
{Shutting up now.}
 
Denryu shrugged, turning around and walking away from the Umbreon. He turned around once more once he was beside Talon's chair and then curled up on the ground into a small ball, closing his eyes.

"So, what do you do at night? This?"

Talon asked, mentioning to how she had been just staring up into space before he came over. He shrugged, blinking his emerald eyes several times and smiling slightly as the breeze picked up again.
 
"I'm usually traveling. Night is when I'm used to traveling for it's the time I'm best hidden."
Terra said with a small sigh.
As it got darker, her eyes glowed faintly.
"Well, today just keeps getting better and better. First running into my father and now this."
She muttered wishing her eyes wouldn't glow at night.
"This is the only bad part about traveling at night. People don't usually notice them, but...you never know when someone will."
 
Talon looked her eyes and noticed that they were glowing. He felt that this might be a litle weird, but refrained from saying anything negative about them. he merely smoothed his hair out and muttered a couple words.

"What's wrong with glowing eyes? It's not realyl a big deal..."

He said calmly, shrugging.
 
"Glowing eyes are really the best thing to have when trying to hide and avoid people at night if you think about it. Their...strange I know that's what your thinking. It's fine. I think that too truthfully."
Terra muttered resting her chin on her knees and staring at the ground.
Greslo looked up at her, then layed down.
A cool breeze swept over them, making Terra's hair sway.
 
MIke saw that they were about to enter the hotel and that Terra had gotten two rooms. One for the guys and another for the girls. He just shugged and followed Talon to their room.

Right before they seprated to their rooms. Mike saw Jen and said to her, "When you want to. You can return my jacket back to me. I don't mind you keeping if to a while. It will keep you warm."

Mike then enter his room and Char took a corner and began to close her eyes.
 
I nodded and cautiously walked in to the girl's room, with the green jacket still on me. I looked around, completely drenched. It was so warm.... My shoes were even soaked, so every step I took was an annoying "squish" sound.

After awhile I had no need for Mike's coat anymore. I was already warm. So I left the room and slowly walked down to the boy's room. I hesitated, thinking about going back in fear of Toren, but finally, I knocked on the door.
 
Talon nodded, looking around.

"Why would you want to hide at night? Oooh, you're father, right..."

He looked up into the sky, his hair too swaying in the wind. His hair was a little bit longer than normal and but he liked it. The spikes settled around his shoulder, but continued to be ruffled around by the wind.

For some reason, Talon felt the need to say SOMETHING.

"Do you have many friends? I took occasional glances at you as you walked and it seemed like you were by yourself, mostly..."
 
Terra frown and stared at the ground.
"No...I don't have any friends."
She said, hiding the sadness in her eyes.
"Never have."
Terra muttered, staring up into the sky as the wind blew gently.
Greslo looked at Talon, then at Terra.
 
"Really? Me either."

He shrugged and stared down at Denryu, who had gotten up from resting and was currently staring at a Jigglypuff that a 9 year old girl had released and was playing with. Toren rolled his eyes and turned in his chair, facing Terra again.

"Well...I could be your friend..."

He muttered, mustering up a smile. He was glad that Anko had gone back into her Pokeball or she would be currently clawing him into pieces.
 
"R-Really!? You would do that!?"
Terra exclaimed, surprised at what he just said.
She never thought that Talon of all people would say that.
Then Terra sighed.
"Talon...you probably won't be traveling with us much...will you? W-What will I do once you leave?"
She asked, staring at the ground.
 
"Sure..."

He said, shrugging. He smiled again, staring off into the sky as he talked.

"Well, I guess I'm sort of a drifter. Even I do leave, I'd probably come back sometime. Not like anyone would care if I leave anyway, Jen was ready to kill me for giving her a haircut."

He muttered. scratching Denryu's ears as the Quilava returned and curled up in front of his chair. He sighed, closing his eyes and relaxing back into the chair.
 
"Idiot!"
Terra exclaimed suddenly angry.
"Of course someone would care if you left!...I would....I'd care...a lot if you left Talon...."
She muttered sighing.
The sadness showing slightly in her eyes.
Greslo looked at Terra, then Talon, then back at Terra.
 
I was about ready to give up on anyone answering the door. I had been waiting there for almost five minutes, and still, no answer. I decided to knock again. This time I knocked a little louder and harder than before. If someone didn't answer now, I'd probably just leave the coat at the door.

Cinna hadn't came with me, she was sleeping peacefully in the girl's room.
 
Talon had his eyes closed in sadness, but looked up in surprise when he heard himself being called an idiot. he was about to say something when he heard Terra say even more.

"W-What?"

Talon muttered, staring at Terra in shock. As had happened many times before, he was wondering if he had heard her correctely.

"D-do you really mean that?"
 
Terra nodded, wondering what he was thinking.
"Yeah...you're...different than the others Talon...I feel normal...and not having to worry about anything when with you."
She said always avoiding his gaze.
Terra's face had turned slightly red.
"I always find you so...easy to talk to. I'd be...devistated if you left."
 
"Wow..."

Toren said, now knowing that he had heard her correctely. However, he still had a hard time believing it.

"No one's ever cared about me like that. Seems like you want me around more than my own family did..."

Toren smiled and closed his eyes again, relaxing his arms in his lap and wondering what to say.

"I f-feel the same way. Barely anyone else talked to me, Jen even tried to deck me. But you...you're the only one that pretty much understands me."
 
"Your family probably wants you around more than my dad...I-I don't have a mom anymore...my dad kiled her long ago..."
Terra muttered softly.
"I-I care a lot about you Toren...it seems like you're the only one that really...accepts me."
She said looking at him.
Greslo then layed down and watched them silently.
 
(*Says a big 'Sorry" to everyone who has to read all these posts* XD)

Toren looked up, his eyes looking sad.

"I'm...sorry. I don't even know what happened to my family..."

He said calmly talking about about her family in the first part of tiny little speech. He then shrugged, staring down at Denryu instead of having the guts to look straight at Terra.

"I didn't think anyone could ever care about me, after my own family practically disowned me..."
