{ooc| I didn't realise you were a 'ficcer, LA. I used to write Dragon Ball fanfics back in the good ol' days... but that TC, that's the prettiest thing I ever did see. I'm happy to see you love noctowls too. Yaaaaay!
I still like the dusky, terchery tones on Alter's, though. Those sort of colours are very 'in' right now here in England, in fact I have a gorgeous v-neck plunge jumper in exactly that shade of purple.}

What-A-Mess gasped in mock horror. {Oh my, my oh my, what a clumsy little grimer I have been!} she giggled, and continued throwing the coins about joyously.
The little grimer grinned confidently. Smelling like the back of a manure truck did have it's advantages; over and over again in the past, Mess had avoided fights due to her stench alone. Most prissy pokemon wouldn't dare get themselves dirty!

Fang bowed his head.
{I'll battle. No worries. Let's go.} he said fiercely, but didn't jump into the arena straight away. He gave Maxie one last affectonate nuzzle first.
{I'll make you proud.} he told her, but Maxie didn't answer. Fang made a huge thing about battling, and she was more than used to him acting like he was sacrificing himself for the good of pokemon-kind, or whatever.
"Good luck." she whispered eventually. Fang didn't look back.

The bat landed softly in front of the seviper. He dipped his head as a show of respect, but he did't expect the same sort of politeness in return. He hopped back a few paces, and locked his sonar on Nigina.

"Say..." Maxie called, perhaps a little louder than normal, "What's your name?" she finally asked the trainer. She had a horrible gut feeling about this; the raw breath of danger rasped inside her mind, and she clenched her gloved hands.

OOC: Ohh...my T-Card is 'in'? Heh, that's probably the first time in history that anything of mine is 'in'. XD And I just picked those shades because they fit nicely with the Thunder background. ^-^

IC:

{Yes, that is the way, little bat...} Nigina hissed at Fang, a flicker of amusement crossing her face as she noticed the Zubat's gesture, nodding ever-so-slightly in return, {Bow to death, like a good boy. Behave and maybe I'll just finish this quickly...} she chuckled in a definitiely sadistic manner, becoming ever more impatient as she waited for the boy to command her to attack.

"Ah yes, we haven't been introduced yet, have we?" Maxie's opponent asked in a continuously calm voice, "My name is Valen, and if memory serves then you go by the name of Maxie, do you not? I believe I overheard that back at the pok?mon center, not that it matters overmuch." he shrugged, as if to signify his indefference for the matter, before turning to give his commands to the Seviper in front of him.

"Now let's begin, Nigina! Glare and Slash!"

The Seviper sprang into work with considerable enthusiaism, casting a glare at the Zubat, a glare so fierce that it went beyond the domain of sight, a menacing stare that went straight to the subconscious of the victim with the sole intent of paralysing it with fright, before she lunged forward, her large, blade-tipped tail glinting dangerously as it crossed a small spot of sunlight on its way towards the Zubat.

Rai had now fallen completely silent, not daring to do as much as breath too loudly just in case it would distract Maxie or Fang from the battle. He had a feeling that they were going to need nothing short of their full concentration and skill to pull this one off.

{Come on Fang...} Chupon muttered nervously, clinging to Rai's leg, while Kaika lay in the boy's arms, utterly fascinated by the unfolding battle.

{Keep your guard up...} Ashura muttered quietly, although she had no more desire to disturb the battle than Rai did, prefering to watch in silence and hope for the best. Fang might have gotten on her nerves, a lot, but the mantis pok?mon still far preferred the little Zubat as people went. That Seviper's sheer bloodlust was utterly disgusting to her...
 
OOC: Oh yeah! Barrel City, that other RP I'm in! Heh heh! ^____^;;;

And glad my trainer card is good-looking. I am very proud of it. I should show my first trainer card I ever made... though I have no idea where I put it.

Oh Alter, I love the background on yours! Cloudy and gradient-y! ^-^

About the fan fics... I do want to continue them, it's just hard to write a decent bit when you're involved in RPs, and life. >_> Perhaps I'll write some more over break. I should post my largest fanfic, my trainer fic "The Glass Half Full" here sometime. That one's got 24 chapters and I'm still (but slowly o.o) writing it. I believe I have 6 or so chapters of it posted on Fanfiction.net. Haven't updated in a while though... ^-^;;


Zachary
===========

Zachary picked up the last coin that was still clean and figured What-A-Mess could just keep the rest. The last thing he needed was to start smelling like a Grimer because of some slimed up coins in his pocket.

Since the smelly pokemon had seemed sorry for hitting Luka on the head, the Zigzagoon calmed down and returned her attention to the battle that was beginning. Fang had done a good and honorable gesture, and that evil snake had made it sound like something silly.

Ron frowned, {Glare... I hope Fang can hold his ground with that! Otherwise... this battle's gonna go fast.}
 
OOc-
Thankies peeps!Tis fun writing summaries either way,so yeah!^^

Great TC card Melissi!I love the backgrounds you made by yourself,but Titan's one tis great too!

And yay for no snow/icy pavements here!^0^
Seriously though hope Charon and Titan are alright.^^;;;

Ic-

Jena stared at Zachary as he managed to pick up the coins from the pavement,that was a lot of spare change.

Jena stood back as the battle finally started,like the rest,she didn't want to make any sound,afraid that it might break Maxie and Fang's concentration on the Seviper called Nigina.

Orjen,however,had other plans.

{Goooo!!Fang!!You can do it!!Show that snake,teach that snake how to really battle!!Yeah!!}the Wurmple cheered loudly,Ryne and Cascade sweatdropped as they clambered on top of Orjen.

"Orjen!Be quiet will you."Jena hissed,relieved that her Mudkip and Ralts managed to silence the Wurmple.

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

{Zge-na!!She's tha girl!!Along wif' Kaaylee and Rai and Zaack.}Tania told the Swablu,happy that Miruka could understand.Though,the Tailow wondered why he continued with calling the Swablu stupid.It wasn't really that serious now..was it?Even her mother couldn't understand her sometimes.
 
{I told Silver bout it already.. She seems happy to know that..} Miruka assured Tania..

Silver continued running towards the direction Miruka had pointed to her.. Not long after, she heard some familiar voices nearby.. That sounds like Zachary.. uhh.. and Maxie.. OMG!! I'm gonna meet him in no time!! She sped up and reached the others.. only to find Maxie and Zachary battling..

Her mind went blank for a moment.. What should I do?? I can't let this battle go on.. Zachary can't get hurt, no he can't!! and before she knew it.. She was shouting out "STOP!"
 
OOc-
Flissi,Zahary ain't battling,tis Fang and Maxie.XD
Either tha,or Silver's being blinded by her crushy-ness.Anyway-

Oh no... soon every kind of pairing in the RP will be labeled.... No one ish safe!!!

And on that..
RaiXKayley-Poshtrumpetshipping
SilverXMaxie-Hiddenhelmetshipping

^Both have obvious reasons,so I need not explain.

I shall come up with the rest later.>D

Ic-

"Silver?!What're you doing?Stop,shouting!!"Jena was the first to hear the girl's shout,she quickly ran towards Silver and covered her mouth with one hand.

"Be quiet!Maxie's having a battle!"she whispered,pointing to the arena.

"And..I don't think this is the time to talk.."she sweatdropped,feeling rather nervous all of a sudden,wondering if Valen and Nigina were looking at them now.Quickly letting go of Silver.

{Zge-na!!!}Tania squeaked,flying out of Silver's hands and landing on Jena's shoulder.Making the girl even more nervous than before.

Meh, Yibber.. It's obvious that Silver's blinded by her crushy-ness..

IC:

"I don't care.." Silver hissed and rushed beside Maxie.. "Maxie.. STOP THIS BATTLE RIGHT NOW OR ELSE!!!!!!!" She paused for a moment and shouted to Zachary.. "Hey!! Return your Pokemon now.. I'm not gonna let this battle go on.. Not over my dead body.. I don't want you to get hurt.." "Uhh..I mean I don't want anyone to get hurt.." she said blushing a little..

{Eh Miruka.. Do Silver like Zachary or something?} Yukari asked Miruka out of curiousity.. {Errr.. I think so..} Miruka whispered back..
 
OOc-
Ohhh..okay!
Yay for crushy-ness!^0^

MaxieXZachary-Dreamfulshipping

Maxie seemed like she cared after Zach got scared by Hazy.And like,that was after Zach woke up.So the word 'dream' popped into my tiny head.Then,I remembers that Maxie hates thingys..like,hateful.So,it becomes,Dreamful.XD

Yeah,randomness-ness.^^

Ic-

Jena stared at Silver like she was some person she didn't even know at all.

"Eh,Silver,calm down,Zachary's not battling..."she sweatdropped,pulling Silver away from Maxie and Zachary as fast as she could.

{Its obvious,Silver had feelings for Zachary.}Ryne nodded at Miruka and Yukari,taking note to keep her hands over Orjen's mouth.

"Eh,you may start the battle now."Jena pretended to laugh,before pulling herself and Silver far away from the group,and definately out of ear-shot.

"Okay,what was that about??"she folded her arms and asked the girl.Even if Silver was about to deny anything or everything she asked,she could atleast stall the girl until the battle ended.Valen didn't look like the sort who liked intteruptions.
 
"Err.. what is this all about.. erm.. Well.." Silver paused for a while.. "Well... you know, I just don't wanna waste time.. We gotta be on our way. To find Sephy.. and we're all friends.. not so good to fight.. You know what I mean?" She then looked back at the arena.. "Uhh.. I still don't think we should let that battle continue.." She then walked back to the battle arena..

{Ryne.. Do you think we should tell Ron about this later?} Yukari asked..
 
"Maxie's the one who wants to battle.No,wait.Its Fang who wants to battle or something.Have you even seen Valen and Nigina?!"Jena frowned,pointing at the boy and his Seviper.Completely forgetting about him looking rather scary,and Nigina's reaction to Kayley calling her a 'thing'.

{Oh,it depends really.}Ryne shrugged to the Swablu,before looking down to the Wurmple underneath her and Cascade.

"Anyway..who comes charging in shouting 'Zachary'.."Jena stopped,thinking on what she had just said,before eyeing Silver with a grin on her face.
 
"Are you trying to make me tell you bout my crush on Zachary?" Silver covered her mouth and let out a gasp after realizing what she just blurted out... She blushed and asked Jena "You won't tell anyone bout this right? Please don't tell anyone.. please.."

{What??!! Silver really likes that clusmy fellow? I thought I made a mistake..} Yukari exclaimed out loud..

{Lower your volume Yukari} Miruka hissed..
 
OOc-
Like!Silver admitted it!!^0^
Like,woah my Feebas!XD

Ic-

Jena was too suprised as Silver suddenly said that she had a crush on Zachary.

{If you want to tell Ron,I'm not stopping you.Though,a nicer thing to do would be to keep your trainer's secret,a secret.}Ryne raised an eyebrow as Silver admitted that she liked Zachary.

{Yeah,if Ron tells Zach,its going to be bad,yes??}Cascade nodded in agreement.

{More of..awkward than bad,Cassy.}Ryne corrected the Mudkip as both proceeded to make sure Orjen was still safely underwraps.Or underneath them,whichever.

"Oh,I thought that you just wanted to apologise to Zachary.Heard what happened between you and him."she giggled so hard,she had to put her hand on her stomach to ease the pain.

OOc-
Now,wasn't that a surprising end?!XD
 
{Ryne.. you expect me to care bout Silver?? I don't even wanna be in good terms with her.. And for all you know, Zachary might like her too.. So I'm going to tell ron bout it later..} Yukari told Ryne..

{I'm not gonna let you do that.. I believe Silver will tell Zachary bout that herself..} Miruka argued..

"Oh.. I'm not gonna apologize.. I don't see a need to.. It's his fault for being so scared.." Silver paused for a moment.. "Well.. I think I should apologize.. I should be letting him see the better side of me.."

ARGH!!! I can't believe that I thought Jena knew bout me liking Zachary!! I actually told her that.. I HATE MYSELF!! Silver then pinched herself hard and let out a soft cry.. That hurts..

OCC: Heh.. Silver ish famous for blurting stuff out..

Poshtrumpet.. Oh gawd, I was laughing at that one for a long while. XD

Sounds like it'd be a good brand name for a line of brass instruments. XD

And before I forget..

Melissi! That T-Card ish teh pwnage! XD

Aw, and Titan is so dedicated, typing up all this with his hand being all torn. XD

This makes me glad there's never snow here 'cept on Mauna Kea. Tee hee. And that's a long way away from where I am, anyways.




IC:




Kayley was planning on watching the battle unfold silently while she got her hopes up for Maxie and Fang, but apparently it wasn't to last, seeing as Silver came rushing into the battlefield, shouting for the battle to stop, and asking Valen to recall his Pokemon, talking to the guy as if.. As if he were Zachary?

"N-No comment.." Kayley whispered, barely managing to utter the words before sealing her lips again. Fishy shrugged, then nodded in agreement with his trainer. Razz merely sighed, not moving from her spot.




----------




{Ya haven't got me yet, big guy! You're like SO dumb!} Kinaki shouted playfully, jumping onto a different branch located on a different tree before the branch she had been standing on fell to the ground with the whole tree that had owned it, the crash resonating throughout the forest like the sound of thunder.

The Ursaring down on the ground near the human route roared once again, his cry of plain annoyance filling the young Mawile with glee.

This had been going on for a while now, and neither Kinaki nor the Ursaring were willing to give up. The child Mawile had been hoping to distract the bear long enough for her mother to get help, but for some reason she had seen no sign of her mother anywhere..

The Ursaring, fueled entirely on hunger, would use a series of Slash attacks to knock down tree after innocent tree, hoping to knock his meal out of the sky, only for the child to leap to the safety of a branch on a different tree, forcing him to roar in frustration and begin chopping down the other tree.

The sound of those poor trees crashing was probably loud enough for people to hear for miles, but Kinaki didn't care. She was having so much fun! Yes, it was fun to annoy big guys!

As the Ursaring began to charge again, she cried out in joy, mocking the predator once more.

{Heehee! Try as you might, you'll never get me down~!}

"Eh,uh..Silver,are you okay??"Jena stared at Silver with a strange look on her face as the girl pinched herself.

"Okay,I won't tell anyone,except for my pokemon and this Tailow,they've already overheard it either way."Jena nodded,realising that well,even though the right thing to do would have been to tell the rest.Her Master always taught her to respect other people's way of seeing things.And,another reason was that this was like all the fairy tales she would read.Zachary HAD to find out for himself.

{I don't see why not.You should not try to conceal it,you know.}Ryne looked at Yukari.

{You do like Silver,or at least a small part of you.}
 
OCC: I love playing girls in love!! xD it's just so fun!

IC:

"Uhh, I think so.. and thanks for promising me that.." Silver told Jena..

{Me? Like Silver? Nah... I hate her more than anyone can ever hate anyone.. Who will like her..?} Yukari argued back..

{Er.. Yukari.. I like her.. She's a cool trainer..} Miruka giggled..

{That's not counted.. Tell me.. Cascade and Ryne.. you two don't like her do you..} Yukari asked..
 
OOc-
YEAH IT IS!^0^

Ic-

"Eh,no worries."Jena smiled,before wondering whether the rest were worried about them.

"We go back now,and don't tell them anything that happened.Just let Maxie finish her battle and we'll be on our way,okay?"she suggested to the girl.Absent-mindely stroking Tania.

{You may not know it yet.}Ryne sighed to herself under her breath.

Orjen frowned as Yukari forgot to mention him in the question.He sturggled out of the Ralts and Mudkip's grip.{Hey!Don't forget about me!Did you forget about me?!I think Silver's an okay and nice girl!}he put his six hands on his...orange body.

"Uhh.. I guess so.. But if Zachary gets hurt or something... I'm gonna rush out and stop the battle once more.. You better not stop me.." Silver gave her promise reluctantly..

{Oh.. Orjen.. When did you come? I didn't even see you around..} Yukari asked..

{That's only because Ryne and Cascade was sitting on Orjen just now..} Miruka said as he gave Yukari a small whack on the head..

{Owww.. That hurts..} Yukari growled rubbing his head..

Tis something called 'pay back'.>D
Naw,I guess me and Flissi went overboard.^^Anyway Chappie 184 tis at the end of this post.^^

Whichever ish easier to pronouce,I'm like,having trouble pronoucing both.>_<;;

Ic-
"Zachary's not going to get hurt.."Jena glared at Silver rather irritated,how many times had she told the girl?

"Maxie's battling,not Zachary."she repeated herself as they walked back to join the rest.

{Yeah,that was a good backrub,good massage guys!}Orjen thanked the Mudkip and Ralts,who only managed to nodded back to the strange Wurmple.

{Ouch!You shouldn't hit anyone,its bad,yes?}Cascade told the Bagon as he whacked Yukari on the head.


OOc-
Before I start,just some scans of Sapphire grabbing on to the Seviper's tail.
-Feebas and Feebas-

Sapphire wearing coughleavescough(Long fingernails there.>_>)
Oh,and a scan of the challenge thingymahFeebas.
Note-Alot of scans are in this chappie..whew..spent half the afternoon to do this.Some scans,I have already shown,like Zuzu's blank expression.^^

Chappie 184(Vs. Dustox)

Ruby @ Oldale Town
Sapphire @ Littleroot Town

Ruby felt rather content,saying that it felt great to do good deeds.(Yeah,this is right after the part tha Sapphire wakes up and finds that Ruby made clothes for her).

Nowthere was only one problem left.

Yes,he was thankful that Prof.Birch had given the Mudkip to him,but Ruby was still wondering what type of contests he could enter him in.

Nana,Coco and Ruru were in the coolness,cuteness and intelligence segments respectively,each having a segment they could represent well in.Once Norman found out about him running away,he'd have to bring the Mudkip home too.The bet he had made with Sapphire didn't really help much,the boy knew he didn't really have that much time.That's why,if it was possible,he wanted the new Mudkip to do his part.
Though,Ruby wasn't the type to give up easily(I guess).

Ruby-*snaps fingers*Well,with my guidance pokemon will fail to internalize elegance(I hope..).

The boy then ordered his Skitty to treat the nearby bridge as the stadge,to show their new member how it was done.The Mudkip shot Ruby a confused look,before looking as Coco sashayed over the bridge in a particularly cute/elegant(I can't decide.-_-) manner.

*Ruby magically pulls a microphone out of thin air.XD*-Nothing can change the cutest it has mastered.Not even time!And the adrable character is unbeatable.

Coco then proceeded to roll on the bridge in a cute manner.

Now,it was the Mudkip's turn,he had to try and imitate.First,it was from his walking-To a cute expression.

Err...How about a cool expression?

No,that won't do!Try intelligent...-

Ruby felt rather flustered,telling the Mudkip that this wouldn't do,he pointed to the leaves of a tree beside him,saying that he had to be like the willow and sway more gracefully.

Okay,it was getting worse.

Ruby told the Mudkip to look more carefully at the leaves as he tried to grab some himself.Before he could continue however,he realised that he had grabbed onto a..
---

Littleroot Town-

Sapphire sat on the balcony of her father's house,having told Birch and Ruby's mother what had happened.
The Professor took the things out of his bag-thingy.Treeko and his pokegear were there,but he realised that his pokedex was gone.

Ruby's mother,still shocked on hearing the news,looked like she was about to faint.They decided to call Norman at Petalburg gym first.

As Norman picked up the phone,he asked where Ruby was.His wife responded in a shaky voice.After listening to Sapphire's story,they knew that he had run away.She then continued by asking him what they were to do.
She passed the phone to Birch who suggested that they call the police.But,Norman had other plans,he told them that it wouldn't be necessary.And said that he would look for the boy himself.(Feebas,Norman's strong!!^^)

As the line went dead,Ruby's mother sighed,saying that Norman must have crushed the phone in his hand again.He would always do that. ....---
Back at Oldale town-(Yessh,a chapter is really this long.-_-)

Ruby and his pokemon were running more the Dustox,clearly agitated by the boy grabbing its wing.Suddenly though,the boy hears a certain beeping coming from his pocket(As you can see,Brendan ish way fatter than Ruby!^^*gets brick'd and buried in a pile of Ludicolo*).

It turned out to be the pokedex,he must've forgotten to return it to the Professor.Though,Ruby didn't have much time to ponder on how to return the device,as the Dustox proceeded to shower the poison dust from its huge wings onto Ruru,Coco and Nana.They all fell onto the ground,asleep.

As the pokedex stated,the powder from a Dustox' wings could put a pro wrestler to sleep.Ruby then decided that they could have a rest first,withdrawing the three pokemon into their pokeballs.

The Mudkip however,was still very much awake,and had caught up to them.He didn't catch any of the dust as he was too slow.Both quickly ducked under the bridge as a Psybeam barely missed them.Ruby tried to see whether there was anyway to beat the bug pokemon,before he had a chance to check the pokedex,the Dustox used the antennae on its head to find them.They dodged out of the way of another Psybeam.Blah.

The Mudkip suddenly closed his eyes,the fin on his head started swaying.Then,he leapt out of Ruby's arms and manages to hit the Dustox with a water gun,instantely knocking the bug type out.

The boy didn't know that Hoenn had so much wild pokemon,he couldn't return the device just yet,he needed it so that he could escape from each new pokemon he'd meet in the new region.Besides,he could return it since he'd be seeing Birch's daughter in 80 days.

Again,reading from the pokedex,Ruby finds out that the enemy might have had an antennae,but the Mudkip had a radar on his head.He then turned to the Mudkip,looking at it with a new feeling,something like fondness(I know,kinda redundant scan,but,Ruby looks cute in this picceh.*gets buried in a pile of Ludicolo*) perhaps?

The boy then named the water pokemon,Zuzu,because of the constant sound he made with his runny nose.
He told the Mudkip that even though the he was slow,he could be sharp at times,and that even though he himself still had no idea what contests to enter Zuzu in,he had confidence in the Mudfish.With Zuzu on his shoulder,Ruby then activates his running shoes and heads towards the next city.(Looking kool I might add^^)

---
Nope-ness,not done yet.XD
--
At the same time in Littleroot-

Sapphire tugged on the clothes Ruby made for her,getting ready to leave as well.She called for her father,and told him that she would be travelling around Hoenn.Birch gives his daughter a pat on the head and good wishes as she bid farewell.Telling Sapphire to make a name for herself,the girl nodded in agreement.A Torchic and Aron(called 'Rono' or 'Ronono' in my book,his name ish 'Rono')joined her as she told her father goodbye one last time and to wait for the good news.

She jumped off the balcony and grabbed onto a vine and disappeared into the vast jungle....o.O....XD
---
Countdown to deadline--79 days
---

Yay!!Done!!^0^

Yeah,I know some are unexplainable,like Ruby's microphone appearing out of nowhere,it most likely came from his bagpack.And..Sapphire jumping onto the vine.I have no idea why she did that.Bah!She's just different.^^

I especially loved Zuzu's expressions in this chappie!Especially the 'intelligent' and 'willow' one.XD
