"Let you leave??? NONSENSE!" the old lady shouted. "You get to help me do my laundry!" she said. Natalie's eyes widened, horrified. "I really have to go," Natalie said. She stole a glance at Aero, who just watched. The old lady said, "I'm just joking with you." She laughed a loud, rude, ugly laugh. Natalie quickly got up and opened the Pokemon Center's door. She slammed it behind her and breathed loudly. Seven pair of eyes looked at her as if she were a ghost. "Ummm..." Natalie started, not knowing what to say. "Char!" Aero ran over to the front desk and leaped onto it. "Oh!" exclaimed Nurse Joy, startled. Natalie walked over to her. "Sorry," she said and looked at Aero. Nurse Joy seemed upset. "You need to control your Pokemon." she said angrily. "I said I'm sorry," Natalie said nervously. "Have you seen a boy and girl walking together?" she paused for a response but didn't get one. "They are probably soaking wet." Natalie waited for a response again but still didn't get one. "Never mind," she said sadly. "C'mon Aero," she turned to walk away. "I haven't seen them but would you like to stay here?" asked Nurse Joy. Natalie turned and looked at her. "All right."
