OMG! Page 45!!! ^_____^ We're gettin' close to 50!


Zachary
--------------

Rai's words made sense, and considering both he and Ron had now told him what to do, there was no reason not to do it. He trusted them both, and they were probably right.

"Yeah, you're right Rai. I should go up to her and... and talk!" the boy said, nodding to himself, trying to muster up some courage from his recently-shattered confidence.

{So do it already man! Or are you afraid of a girl?} Ron said, smirking at his partner.

Zachary contemplated this for a moment, and then he turned to the Aron, "What if I am afraid? Is that not normal? I mean, for a guy to be afraid of a girl? Girls can be scary you know! I doubt even that Valen guy could look as scary as Nurse Gwendolyn can sometimes... and--!"

{Will you just go already!} Ron said with a tone of annoyance, {I'll be over here. After all, you wouldn't want me making some snide remark as soon as you apologize.} The Aron would have proceeded to make 'kissy sounds' to bother Zachary further, but being one that didn't possess lips, he couldn't really do it.

"Okay... so... where'd she go anyway? I saw Maxie go that way... I suppose I should head off in that way then," Zachary said, more to himself than anyone else, and as he began to take off, he looked back at Rai and the others, "Oh! Thanks you guys. You really did make me feel better." He then turned around and began to rush off down the street, his fluffy brown hair bouncing along with him.
 
{ooc| With my human drawing skills? Gawwwd, it would take for ever. Though...imagine, it would be amazing if it actually was a manga. Like, a professional one. It would be a best-seller.
Ooo, ooo, can Rai's girl problem be rabid fangirls?? xDDD
I'm listening to the Spirited Away Soundtrack. Soppyness will ensue.}

Maxie smiled at Amelia's words. The other girl's words were so true;
..."you were about the last person I was expecting to want to help me."
No one expected anything of Maxie. Anything short of murder and brutallity, of course...
Maxie fumbled with the chain around her neck. She pulled two dogtags out from under her t-shirt, and turned them in her hand. She turned them in her palm, watching as they flashed and caught the light. On the surface, three letters were engraved: MXE. Her eyes were cold, those defined pools of dark purple, filled with a bone-deep weariness.
Still can't get away from it... still can't escape it. she glanced at Fang, and the little bat landed on his trainer's shoulder. He touched his wing tip to her cheek, but Maxie made no sound. She was lost in thought.

{Max... Max, an answer.} The little poison type urged, and the girl looked looked up suddenly, catching sight of Amelia. She was so perfect, framed against the sunlight.
"I..." she slipped the dogtags back under her shirt, "I think you should say you're sorry. That you know that he'd never... try to hurt you..."

{MWAHAHA. Told you.
EDIT: Yay page 45! I dedicate it to Miyazaki movie soundtracks!
And lol, very true Melissa.}

Ooooh!! Manga!X3
Anyways, I believe tha Charon's human drawings are really neat, even if they take longer to finish. Either way, the style you draw Pokemon so pwnz Yibber's.XD
*agrees with Charon and Melissi on the topic of whether there'd be enough space in a panel for Titan*XD

And, yeah! I can't listen to the Volcano song too. But..I'll like, take tha its really nice to hear/play!^^;;

*whacks self*
Like, Whoa my Feebas. I so forgot.X3

ZacharyXAmelia- Misunderfallenshipping (Misunderstood when he fell onto tha girl..?XD)

There we go! All better now.^^

Ic-

Jena gave a small nod at Rai's statement, slowly backing after from Zachary as he began talking to Ron. About why he was so clumsy. The girl retreated a few more steps so that she couldn't hear the conversation between the Aron and his trainer.

{Ai' go to sleep for a little while and zis' iz what happens?!}Tania cried out in confusion, jumping off Jena's shoulder to land next to Orjen and Kinaki. Seemed like the Wurmple was rather fustrated at the Mawile for some reason.

{Orjen, the Wurmple, the bug type. Is not a 'wormy-ple'!!!}the bug would have placed his hands on his head if they weren't so short. Kinaki was too busy smiling and laughing to bother to pay attention to him. Orjen let out a small yelp as Tania placed her wing over him for comfort.

{Zear' I think zat' zis' Mawile ere' as' alot to learn. Sooner or later, she'll learn your rightful name.}the Tailow ignored the Wurmple's shivering, bringing the small thing close to her, only to receive more cries.

Jena had been swaying back and forth in thought, waiting for Zachary and Ron to finish their discussion. Maxie had run off with Amelia, which didn't really come as a big surprise to her. Of course the Coordinator wouldn't have expected Maxie to run off like that, but yeah, everyone had a good in them. If that girl with the Zubat had bothered to go after Rai before, it did mean that she ca-
Jena stopped swaying to glance sideways, was Rai staring at her? No, never, why? Did she even care?
"Probably staring at the leaf beside me. Eh, shouldn't care anyway...Right? Right? Yes? No? Yes? Wha-?"the girl scratched her head, amazed the number of thoughts which had suddenly gathered in her mind. But...they were nothing. Yes, nothing.

"Eh..Nothing at all.Nope, nothing."Jena started smiling, repeating these words again and again. After which, Zachary started walking towards them and explaining what had happened.

"Eh..Yeah. Rai's correct. Amelia should understand. And, with Maxie along, I'll bet that they'll come back in no time at all."the Coordinator nodded firmly after everyone had stopped talking. Poor Amelia. Poor Zachary infact.

"Should we follow him? Or let him talk to Amelia with Maxie.."Jena asked the remaining four as Zach raced off, not really the type to make decisions.

OOC: Yeah, a proffessional Showgan manga would rock! ^0^ But true, there isn't a speech bubble in this world large enough for me! xD And yay for Spirited Away's soundtrack! ^-^ Yeah, I listen to the few songs I have from there when ever I need to write/think up some soppyer stuff too, helps to get the mind on the right track. ^^

Speaking of which, I'm putting it on right now because I've got to figure out Amelia's words. D'aww...call me soft if you must, but I find several of these pieces really touching. ^-^

IC:

"You're..." Rai began, although Zachary had already darted off before he could finish, "...welcome." the boy concluded, falling silent again as he watched the figure of his friend rapidly dissapearing from view.

"Well, I hope things work out for him..." he stated to the world in general, turning his attention back to the others, although he didn't dare to let his eyes linger on Jena for quite as long as last time as he suspected that the girl had noticed the breach of ettiquette he had recently performed by staring for so long. Don't do it again. he told himself firmly, It's impolite to stare at people, you'll just freak her out. Don't do it.

He looked up as the girl suddenly adressed him, well, she was adressing the rest of the group too, but that didn't change the fact that she had adressed him "No." he replied in a rather firm voice, "It's personal, between him and Amelia, we shouldn't intrude..." he turned to watch the mountain in the distance, the sun shining just from behind it and bathing it in a beautiful glow. For a moment, he wished that he could share his feelings about the moment with someone, but yet...not with everyone. That struck him as deeply wrong. No, it had to be a single person, someone who could understand him. And it didn't look like a situation like that was about to happen any time soon, so he, somewhat reluctantly, snapped his eyes away from the scene and back to his friends, merely remaining silent despite the countless things he longed to talk about. This wasn't the right moment, and not the right setting. He should just ignore the thoughts for now. What mattered was that Zachary got his problem sorted out.

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

Amelia remained quiet as Maxie slipped into her own thoughts, not daring to disturb the older girl. It was obvious that whatever Maxie was contemplating wasn't particularly pleasant, she looked so...tired, somehow, like she was far older than her appearance made her out to be, and the trainee had to stiffle a peculiar urge to give her a supportive hug, reminding herself that this was Maxie, and that she probably wouldn't appreciate it, at least not from her. And so, Amelia spent a few more minutes in awkward silence until finally, Maxie decided to speak up again, advicing her to go and talk with Zachary and offering a suggestion as to what to say.

"I...thank you." Amelia replied, relieved that the awkward moment had passed and honestly gratefull for what Maxie had done for her. Suddenly, she spotted a familiar figure approaching them, running down the street; Zachary. The trainee felt a slight clenching in her stomach, turning back to Maxie.
"I'll do that, thanks for everything, really. I'll make it up to you some day, allright? If there's something I can do to help, just ask." she gave her a smile and curtesied briefly, because she felt that she needed to show some sign of respect and knew that bowing in her current outfit might have had some...undesired side-effects, before turning around and running towards Zachary.

"Zachary!" she called, waving her hand in the air to try to catch the boy's attention while at the same time doing her best to surpress her nervousness, "Zachary! Over here!"

{Oh bugger...} Kuro muttered, sighing out of fatigue as he broke of into a run after the girl, in the Meowth's opinion there had already been way too much running this day.

OOC:*pokes Rai* Someone's staring! Someone's staring! XD

Spirited Away does have awesome music. ^-^ Yes indeedy! There's just something about music from eastern cultrues that's different than western ones that I've grown to love.

Yayness! I just gave my first speech in Public Speaking, and I did a great job! It was just a short thing, and I wasn't too worried about it, but I still got kinda nervous. We were supposed to talk about a pet peeve of ours, and mine was going to the movies with a friend (or friends), that won't stop talking. XD I hate that. Here I am, enjoying a movie, and there's my friend, talking about something completely unrelated. Guh....

The audience was supposed to go up and thank two of the people that spoke today for their effort, and the guy I think is really cute thanked me! *girly squeal* Hee hee. I'm in a good mood. ^-^ I do have these extremely girly thoughts once in a while.

Anyway, onto the post! ^^


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

There was just one problem trying to find Amelia and Maxie. Zachary had no idea where he was going! Who knew how fast an angrered girl could run? Boys certainly didn't, and neither did Zachary. All he could think about while he ran was that he couldn't screw this up. He just had to focus... because when he didn't focus, and let his guard down, he always did stupid things. It was secretly one of the reasons he joined the gang back home when he did; while he was with them he was focused, and wasn't as clumsy. Of course, the bad aspects of that kind of life outweighed any bonus from being unclumsified. He never wanted to go back to that scene again....

Why was he thinking of this? He was supposed to be focusing on finding the girls! Yes, focusing certainly was his problem. Unfortunately, when he thought of finding Amelia and Maxie he thought of Amelia, and then he thought of her face in the Pokemon Center, and then he thought of what an idiot he was.

Oh well, Rai, Jena, and the others were right, he just had to talk about what happened. Amelia had to see... right? Maybe he could pretend that he was just trying to get a bug out of her clothes? No... that wouldn't explain the slap. Not to mention, Zachary was a horrible liar, and he probably couldn't go through with lying to Amelia without his conscience eating him up. The truth would have to do; even though it made him look stupid.

That was when he noticed two girls talking up ahead, and they looked to be Maxie and Amelia! A little voice in the back of Zachary's head told him, 'Ahh! Run away! You can still get away without being noticed and then you won't have to go through with it!' He couldn't do that though, life had never been easy, so life right now would be no exception.

Confronting girls was something that Zachary was no expert at, and as he heard Amelia call out to him, the mushy feeling in the pit of his stomach seemed to lighten considerably. She wasn't angry or hurt sounding anymore... had Maxie really helped that much? Zachary made a mental note about that; he would have to thank the girl for doing what she did.

He continued to make his way up the street, and slowed to a stop when he got a small distance away from Amelia. His mouth had become pretty dry, and he was sure that his face would soon turn that embarrassing bright red color as soon as he opened his mouth to speak.

"Uh... Amelia?" he said to her, panting a little from all of the running. Sure enough, as if on cue, he could feel his face getting redder. Maybe she would think it was from the running. Yes, that could work.

"Oh Amelia I'm so sorry! I... I didn't mean to- I mean the chair just sort of... broke! I was just asking the girl if she was okay because she looked like she had been crying and felt sorry for her, and so I leaned on the chair like I usually do and; snap!" he paused for a moment, wondering if he should say what he was thinking, "I... uh well, actually I wanted to see you when I came to get my pokemon healed."

He paused again, almost afraid to look into eyes but forcing himself to. She may not have been very pretty to most guys, but to Zachary she was. He was particularly fond of her slightly orange hair.


OOC: Okay... I took forever writing that. X_X
 
{ooc| *girly squeal* Yay for you, Melissa! There's nothing better than getting praise from the guys you love. It's a shame there are no cuties in my art class; it's the only subject I take that I can really show off in. xDDD Anyway, well done you, I wish I could have seen it.

Yibber, your art style is so cute and quaint, though. I just love it x3 Oh, what would RaixJena be...? Looks like we've got another couple within the cast on the way here~
One of these days I'll draw the whole showgan cast, but most of my human drawings are very feminine. Sorry Rai and Zach. Funnily enough I prefer to draw male animals and female humans. Hmmm.}

As Zachary began to apologise to Amelia, Maxie rubbed her eyes and turned away. She would've liked nothing better than a cuddle then, but with no parents... a warm embrace was just one more thing lacking in her life.
Still...there was something about Zachary was really uplifting; maybe it was the way he flushed scarlet, or the tender way he spoke, but he certainly was a sweet boy. Amelia, she was lovely too, with her quiet manner and tinted hair. Amelia and him... well, they deserved each other.

Maxie sat down on the nearby curb. She didn't want to interfere - after all, it was Amelia and Zack's moment - but she wasn't quite ready to return to Rai, Jena, Fliss and Kayley yet. The three girls were yet another example of how a proper member of the fairer gender should look, and Maxie really didn't want reminding. She stroked Fang absent-mindedly, and thought of Sephy... dear, dear little Sephy. Where are you, my darling? she wondered, and Fang clicked his teeth.
Maxie was in one of those...'moods'...again. He didn't like it. Not one bit. She was getting too close to humans again, and Fang knew these sorts of relationships ended badly for people like... them. She wouldn't leave, not with Sephy as a hostage... and each day she was getting in deeper and deeper.

{ooc| that psot was a bit pointless, but I'm a bit bored, so hey!}

Oh yeah,

Must tell Flissi tha she's having an amazing side effect on everyone here.XD *remembers*

Ic-

"Eh...Okay."Jena felt slightly embarassed from being so..she couldn't think up a word to phrase herself. It seemed that she was going about doing everything wrong nowadays. If only there was someone, just one single person would have been enough for her. Who didn't mind her slip ups and such. And people to see that she was more than just the daughter of the Minane family.

Resuming the same position she was in near the ground a few minutes before, the Coordinator stared at the mountain with her head resting on both hands. The scene was astounding and the warmth of the Sun gave her a comforting feeling. Nothing like this could've been seen beyond those high built walls at the school. If only she could have lived like this before.

"That means we're going to wait here for them to come back then."Jena sat herself on the ground without any second thoughts, not really directing the statement to anyone in particular. Cascade grinned as he saw the opportunity to get back his original place on his trainer's shoulder as she started drawing pictures on the ground with her index finger. The girl had no intention of wanting the boy and two girls to come back any faster, they could take all the time they wanted. She just needed something to do, standing around wasn't going to make her a better person anyway.

{Yay! I get my place back, yes?}the Mudkip let out a kip, hopping onto his trainer's shoulder before examining what she had drawn out so far.

T'was a small and simple Feebas smiling.

Jena laughed as she received a glare from Cascade, starting to draw out the mudfish on the ground next to the bass pokemon.

OCC: Omfg.. I'm so flattered.. [Random]They call the ZAFT pilots of Gundam SEED Coordinators too..[/Random]

IC:

Silver listened as Zachary explained everything that happened.. Before she even knew it, Zachary had already ran off after Amelia.. I guess.. he still likes her alot after all.. I stand no chance at all..

She walked off from the rest and lean against a tree somewhere nearby.. Sometimes.. I really wonder.. Why am I borned out this way? Why is my life going like that? Why must I be so keen on revenge? Why must I leave the gym? Why must I meet up with Rai, Jena, Maxie, Kayley... and.. and.. Zachary..? Why must Amelia appear?? WHY?? She felt a tear drop trickling down her cheeks.. She clenched her fists and said to herself.. "Silver, be brave.. do not cry.. You have been through so much in life.. and this is nothing to you.. it's just some dumb relationship matters.. Who cares about friends? Who cares about relationship? And who cares bout.. Zac.." She paused all of the sudden.. "No.. this is not the way.. i can't be handling things like that.. I can't have no friends.. I can't have no relationship.. and I definitely can't have no.. Zachary.."

Silver wiped the tears off her eyes and walk towards Jena.. She bent down and asked Jena.. "What is love?"

OCC: I'm like don't know what ta' write.. So I just wrote this stupid, senseless post..
 
Ooc: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!! Stupid new keyboard with stupid relocated buttons!!! That's The second post you take from me!!! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

>____________________________________________________________________________<

And what's with this advanced posting auto-correction? It's put capital starting letters in every bloody word I wrote! And it toned down my righteous indignation by removing a bunch of capitals from there! What's up with that? *Kicks auto-correction*

Ahem...what was I going to say before I was so rudely disrupted, again?

Oh yes, the shipping that is Rai x Jena. Well, since Yibber has entrusted that naming to me I shall hereby declare it...*Dramatic drumroll* Secretshipping. Because they're both keeping a whole lot of secrets from each other (And everyone else for that matter). ^-^

And Flissie...is the evil schoolwork attacking her again? Silver's presence would have been quite interesting with these recent evens. Darn you school! *Shakes fist* Release her I say! XO

Anyways, congratulations on your public speaking, Melissa! ^^

Ohhh! Flissie hath posted! Hiiii Flissie! *Waves* ^-^

IC:

As Jena proceeded to draw on the ground with her index finger, Rai decided to walk over, partially because he was curious about what the girl was drawing and partially because he was feeling a bit guilty about the tone he had used recently. Mareep rearer or no, it was obvious that Jena had little experience of the world, and equally obvious that she was quite embarassed by the fact.

Rai smiled as he recognized what was being portrayed in the drawing. It was simple and crude of course, but still recognizable as a Feebas, and a happy one at that, and there was something in precisely that simplicity that appealed to the boy, although Cascade, it seemed, would have been far more appealed by a Mudkip, which seemed to be precisely what the girl started drawing next.

"I didn't know you were an artist." the boy said, a slight exaggeration perhaps, although he really did like the drawing, "Although then again, anyone who can draw seems like an artist to me since I couldn't make as much as a decent doodle to save my life." he smiled sheepishly, recalling the countless, painfully boring art lessons mother had put her through, not that they did the boy any good as he could no more draw or paint than Clamperl's could climb mountains, "But I'm sorry about the way I replied to your question just now." he added, moving on to the important part, "It's just that I've been taught that kind of things practically ever since I learned to talk and I sometimes forget that most people don't, I didn't mean to embarass you."

He fell silent again, feeling like what he had just said had sounded unusually awkward to be a sentence coming from him. Well, at least he hadn't stuttered or anything, but it still sounded...awkward, hopefully Jena wouldn't pay too much attention to that, though.

Just then, the boy noticed that Silver had dissapeared without him noticing...Silver, it suddenly struck him that he had practically forgotten the girl's existence with Zachary's problems, and Silver...Rai was by now practically certain that the girl had feelings for Zachary too, and she had just had to go through...the boy suddenly felt a sting of guilt in his chest, turning to the remaining two of his friends.

"You guys." he began, "Did either of you see where Silver went?" Maybe... he thought, Maybe she just went to visit the ladies' room or something similar, maybe I'm just getting worked up over nothing. And yet, even as he told himself this, Rai felt absolutely confident that he was lying to himself.

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

Amelia listened in silence as Zachary, a good bit red in the face, although the trainee wasn't sure whether this was because of his run or something else, began his explanation. The whole thing was delivered rather fast and didn't really make much sense, but somehow the girl felt that she understood what Zachary was really trying to say, the fundamental meaning, if you will, and it certainly was a relief. He didn't sound angry at her for making such a rash judgement or anything, but rather, seemed to be blaming the whole thing on himself, or the chair, or something...anyhow, the point was that he was sorry, and at the last sentence the trainee felt pretty sure that the colour of her own face was pretty much beginning to resemble that of the boy's. He came to talk to me... she repeated in her mind, unable to resist smiling at the thought, To me... It was a rather new experience for the trainee, to have someone looking specifically for her. Well, except for nurse Gwendolyn, but that woman didn't count. She had never really been considered one of the prettiest girls back in her hometown, although she clearly wasn't one of the ugliest either, and that position seemed to hold just as firmly in Azure Town. Sure, some random boys looking for an 'easy' target would make passes on her, but no-one who really cared. Amelia had always been a bit like that, like a part of the furniture. Very useful and sometimes nice to look at but not really anything you payed particularly much attention to.

Kuro had, sensitively enough, stopped a bit away from the two humans and was now discreetly observing the scene with a very confused expression on his face. Why was Amelia looking at that boy with the expression she usually deserved for the cute and furry? Why was he looking at that boy with the expression he usually reserved for...him? Kuro's expression darkened, was this stranger trying to steal Amelia from him? His Amelia?! For a moment, the Meowth contemplated giving the usurper a scratch or two over that face of his to teach him to stay away from them, but then thought the better of it, knowing Amelia's strong tendency to look after everything injured she got her hands on and contenting himself by sitting down and continuing to watch the scene instead. If there was going to be something happening between those two then it was only fair that he got to know exactly what.

"It's-it's okay..." she managed to reply, although the trainee found herself at a loss about what to say, like she always did when someone was looking her in the eyes, and was struggling against her natural tendency to start staring at her feet instead, "It was just that...when I saw you all over that-that other girl...I thought..." her face reddened a bit more, "I'm sorry..." she muttered, "I-I don't know why even thought that you...I mean, you're not the kind of guy to-I...I know you wouldn't try to hurt me like that." she finished, once again finding herself grateful for Maxie's assistance, although...hadn't that statement been a bit too loaded? What if...what if Zachary didn't like her like that after all? What if Maxie had been wrong? Yes, what if...there were plenty of 'what if's darting around in Amelia's head as she waited for the boy's reaction.

OOC: Kuu... >.< Took me forever to get a computer this morning. Too many people in the computer lab! I had to wait and then stealthly leap for a free computer like a lion pouncing on its prey!

Ah! Flissie's back finally! Yeah... it would have been interesting if homework had released her earlier but... I'm sure there will be more of them in the future. XD

And poor Silver! ;_; I feel bad for her.

God... I think I'm starting to dislike my new history teacher. T_T He's the kind that's prone to giving the class lectures on our "lack of critical thinking skills". Geez it's only been like 6 classes, and already we've had 4 of these "lectures". It's SUCH a waste of time! The people who listen to what he has to say to them are the people who already do their best, and those who don't listen aren't gonna change, so I don't understand why he's spending so much time on it. He's just wasting our money we paid to enroll in the class, and time that could be spent learning about the history of our country. >.> How's that for critical thinking Mr. Martin? XD

Anyway... I'd better write before I get in the wrong mood to write this next bit. ^-^


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

Okay, good, she didn't hate him or anything, in fact, she seemed to be sorry even though she had done nothing wrong. Zachary smiled a bit at this, he somehow should have suspected that Amelia would be the kind of person to blame herself for the whole incident. The final part of her comments had a sort of cheering effect on Zachary, and he suddenly felt more like his usual self instead of the disheartened, uncomfortable person he had been a few minutes ago. His usual smile returned along with his change in attitude, although it wasn't as goofy and a little more serious.

"Um well... you're right," he said to her, nodding, "I'd never want to hurt you. In fact I don't like hurting anyone; but especially not you. It wasn't your fault for thinking that about me though, it was just a misunderstanding, that's all. Actually, I'm a little glad that you got so angry... uh...." He had trailed off, suddenly feeling as though he was frozen and couldn't speak. What was he just about to say to her? That he was glad because he liked her? Was love too strong a word? Yes... love was most certainly too strong a word. Though he did like her a lot, Zachary figured it was too soon to use the word 'love'.

It was just a few words, that's all it was, a few words to tell someone that you cared about them. It should be as easy as saying "thank you" and "you're a great friend!", but it just wasn't. The boy was sure that his face had begun to look like a giant, red button by now. He glanced at the ground for a moment and then back up at Amelia.

"I mean, about the... uh, well you see I kinda... no, no wait that's not how I wanted to say it... oh," he stumbled in his speech, mentally cursing himself for screwing up his courage at this moment, "You see you're so kind and pretty and I guess that's why... I like you." Zachary's eyes wanted to look away over to Kuro, but the little Meowth had begun to look at him in an almost alarmingly strange way, so he snapped his eyes back to Amelia. Had he made that clear enough? He wasn't even sure now what he had said! Had he said anything at all?! He couldn't remember, the past few minutes all seemed to go like a blur. One thing was good though, he hadn't done anything stupid and clumsy during this whole discussion.

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

Ron sat waiting for Zachary next to the others, and observed Silver's adverse reaction to the situation. He frowned; she had liked Zachary too? Did the boy realize what a girl magnet he was? He hadn't been that lucky back home. Though, back home girls preferred boys that were tough, cool, and dominant. Zachary had always been the kind of person to pick up trash, use those cliched and lovey-dovey phrases they loved so much. That coupled along with his clumsiness never let him really get in good with a girl back home. Here though... it was different.

Amelia was a good choice, Ron supposed. She was sweet and quiet, a lot like Zachary's mother in fact. He had always pictured Zachary with a girl like Amelia, which was why he was so surprised when Luka had said that bit about Silver liking him. Silver was... well, he was sure she had some good aspects, but she was so... not like Amelia.


EDIT: Ack! Forgot Ron's part! >.<

{ooc| I just had an opening evening at the college I'm hoping to go to next year. I'm hoping to take a course in Art, one in either english lit. or english language, and one in history. Though... I can't decide whether I should do sociology, psycology or enviromental sciences for my fourth choice....any thoughts, you guys?
Sorry I keep calling Silver 'Fliss'. That's my dog's friend's name =3 It's a pretty name.
https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/59281 I posted a 'sketch' which I did at school on photoshop with their graphics tablet. Imma gonna get a copy off school for my art exam later this year, yay. Anyway, maybe you guys could help me draw the hands/feet? xDDD I hate drawing people, it's no fun at all.}

Maxie watched catiously. She didn't fit into this equation at all, and while she was eager to head off it would be rude to interrupt. Instead she let her eyes wander, trying not to look like she was listening in, simply waiting. Her jealousy had disappeared now; after all, when you truly care about someone, you have to put their feelings before your own. Zachary was her friend and Maxie didn't want him hurt; she wanted him happy!

Fang, the little bat that never missed a trick, was once again living up to his title. Kuro, the meowth that had previous been so shy, had a paticularily malicious look on his face; Fang fancied he wanted to take a slash at Zachary. I certainly would have, if I was him. Fang thought irratably. No boy would ever get away with coming between Maxie and him; Maxie was his partner, his constant companion. Seperation, it wasn't an option. His mind flicked momentarily to Ron - how was the dependable, solid Aron coping with it all? Fang expected he was fine. And Silver...? well, she'd probably hang herself, but at least they'd all see what was under her helmet! That had been nagging at Fang for some time.

Maxie stood up, smiling slightly. "I think we should head back to the others now, they'll be worried." she interrupted hintingly.

OOc-

*stabs shipping namers once more*

Anyways, the drawing looks Feebas so far, Charon!^^
My hands and feet aren't really tha good but yeah..I could try if you wanted.X3

Tho' yeah, you wouldn't believe! They moved me from the Drama club to NPCC (National Police Cadet Corps for those who don't know.>_<;; )

Which, incidently, has nothing to do with the police.X3
Anyways, we stood under the hot afternoon sun(living near to the eqautor, making the Sun hotter) for half an hour in one position. Before standing straight for another twenty minutes under blissful shade.XD
We get to learn how to shoot stuff with real revolvers/rifles.O.o (Not too fond of tha)

Officer-in-charge- Shooting is so fun!!

Oh!Oh! And we do drills! And marching!! Yey, for marching! And, yeah, disipline ish like, so needed unless you want to get a 100 push-up+sit up+star jump punishment. They give out punishments like water!!>_<
Tho' yeh, and the training ish once a week for four and a half hours.X3

Now, before my OOC takes up this whole post

Ic-

"Eh? No..not really."Jena laughed as Rai thought of her as an artist that was one of the last things she would even consider being.

"I did sketch when I was younger. Until rearing became top priority."she added, before continuing with the Mudkip drawing, much to Cascade's delight. It was fun to draw out the Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan sparring with each other, and well, any other Pokemon which could be seen inside the school for the matter. {Yeah! That looks very pretty, Jena. Yes?}the Mudfish exclaimed in excitement as his trainer finished with the small Mudkip on the ground.

"Eh..? What're you talking about? You don't need to apologise for something like that! I mean, it was my fault in the first place.."the girl quickly replied as Rai started talking about the tone of voice he had used before, wondering why the boy had chosen to apologise for something like that. She had never realised that he was doing something wrong. On the contrary, he answered her question without any thinking and such, firmly too. That, in no way seemed wrong to the Coordinator.

"Anyway, you shouldn't really keep bringing yourself down on these sort of things."she turned away from Rai to face the ground where her two drawings were, managing a small smile on her face. Rai then started talking about Silver, asking where she was or something.

"Silver? Wasn't she just-"Jena started to point to where Silver stood the last she saw her, only to realise that the girl was now beside her and started asking a question.

The girl would have fallen back in sheer uneasyness if not for the fact that she was already seated on the ground.

"Eh?!L-L-Love?! How'd you expect me to know something I've never experianced before..."she paused, remembering that, well. Silver had a thing for Zachary, right? And now the boy was with Amelia, it must've felt rather heartbreaking for her. Infact, Silver looked like she had been crying, if not, shedding a tear or two.

"Well.."Jena hesitated before getting up from the ground, brushing the dirt and small pieces of leaves off her skirt before placing her hands on her hips to face Silver. The Mudkip on her shoulder immediately grabbed on tightly, lucky that he had not fallen off from his trainer's sudden movement .
Perhaps, Silver just wanted to see if she really liked Zachary, or it was just a young crush which would come and go. The Coordinator wasn't an expert at explaining stuff, and well, love was one of the hardest. But, Silver was an exception.

"Eh, it can be either simple or complex, hard to understand."she started, trying her best to think up more things to say as she continued on.

"I don't know how its supposed to feel when you love someone. But it's probably different with each person. Its this strange(In a good way,though) feeling you get when you really, really like someone. And it doesn't come and go every other day, meaning that its rare and hopefully, that it stays."now, Jena was saying out her own feelings of the matter instead of thinking up of answers she had read in books and such.

"You get this gushy and rushed feeling, then you realise that there's only the two of you in the world. You've blocked everyone else out. You can only think of him and only him, everything is a blur. But if you really want to know if he's the one..Fireworks. A feeling greater than winning all the contests in the region and impressing your parents. Feel safe, comfort with the warmness and stu-"Jena stopped in mid-statement, realising that she was drifting away from the original answer.

"Its just this rare and special feeling.Not that you should even listen to a word of this. Since I've no idea what I'm talking about. Anyway, there's only one person out there."she finished by giving Silver an encouraging pat on the shoulder.

"Who doesn't need to be Zachary."

OOC: Wha-?! What's with Misty stealing all our shipping names! *Kicks MistyXWhoever-shippers* That's the second name ya' swiped! XO

*Grumbles* Gonna' have to come up with a new one...again...-___-

And what's with those people moving you like that, Yibber? How come that kind of stuff is even allowed? Sue them I say! XO It's a free country, isn't it? Or is it? Erm...I think I've confused myself. :confused: But really, it's just plain wrong to switch around someone else's subjects like that. That kind of training wasn't meant for everyone, you know. <.< Seriously, I just can't picture you in that kind of work. Okay, so I can't really picture you properly at all but...you know, personality-wise...

Oh, and your teacher sounds like a real pain, Melissa. Seriously, how does that dude define critical thinking? He-hee, I have a sheet or two of paper on that subject from ToK class. xD But History teachers do seem to have a tendency to rant about that, the one I had last year started out the first year by preaching in front of the class about how there are no reliable sourcea and gettings so worked up that by the end of his speech he declared, and I quote;

"History isn't about the truth!"

And slammed his hand on his desk. Lol, he amused me, and on the plus side, he only brought that stuff up once. ^-^ But yeah, basically the History idea of critical thinking is that you need to find a whole bunch of sources that agree with each other in order to properly prove and that anything that you say without offering a source proof has no factual value and is only a hypothesis. Although you probably knew that already. ^^

Oh, concerning your school subjects Charon...well, Psychology is a great subject (Not to mention that it has...practical applications. >D) but if the teacher sucks then those hours will be complete torment for you, because Psychology is also the kind of subject that can become about as interesting as a sack of toenail clippings. Still, I'd suggest either that or Sociology. I tend to avoid any subject with 'studies' in its name because that tends to equal imprinting a bunch of facts and solving stupid excersises in my experience. Go with the subject that has the best teacher. ^-^

And I agree...poor Silver...*Sniffleh* ;__; But, ahem, I just can't picture Kuro letting this situation develop too far, he can be quite the possessive little bugger.

IC:

Well, most of Zachary's words once again made very little sense, but in her current condition, Amelia doubted that she was in a much better condition for sentence phrasing, and once again, it was the boy's final words that made sense to her, not to mention deepening her blush. Amelia imagined that they must have looked pretty silly to passers by standing together, stuttering, and blushing like that, but at the moment, her mind was quite preoccupied with something else. He likes me... the trainee repeated in her mind, He-he said he likes me and that I'm pretty... but was it like, like-liking? She couldn't be sure, after all, they had just met today, in all honesty she couldn't even be completely sure about her own feelings, only that she...well, liked him, she supposed.

"Umm..." Amelia began, her eyes now taking the chance to dart to her shoes for a while before she forced them back up again, "I-I like you too..." she managed to say at last, "I mean, you've been so nice to me and all, and-"

{It huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurts!}

The trainee was completely thrown of her line of thought as Kuro's scream suddenly struck her ears, the girl quickly spinning around in pure reflex and noticing the cat pok?mon sprawled out on the pavement, clutching his stomach with both paws and moaning terribly.

"Kuro! What-what's with you?" Amelia asked, quickly rushing over to the Meowth and lowering herself down to take a better look.

{It hurts...} Kuro repeated dramatically, {My tummy hurts so bad Amelia...so bad...}

"Oh my word, are you sick?!" Amelia asked in a worried voice, "Kuro, you didn't eat anything from a trash can again, did you? You know what those things can do to you..."

{Huuuuuurtsss...} Kuro repeated, writhing in seemingly untold agony although in truth, he was smirking inwardly at Zachary. If the boy had honestly thought that Kuro would let someone else muscle in on his Amelia without a fight then he really had another thing coming to him.

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

Rai was once again feeling a good bit relieved. Not only had Jena assured him that he had done no wrong, but Silver had also returned just as suddenly as she had dissapeared, albeit teary-eyed this time, and proceeded to ask Jena about...love?

The boy fell silent, taking a small step back so as to not interrupt by mistake, listening as the girl tried to explain this difficult concept. Rai's expression turned thoughtful at some of the things he had heard...gushy and rushed feeling? Feeling like there were only two people in the world? But he...had never really felt like that, felt for a couple of girls surely, certainly thought that it was love at the time, but in retrospect, he wasn't quite sure...nonetheless, Jena had phrased it quite beautifully in his opinion, yes, that was definitely something worth remembering, a story for the kids as his father used to say, not that Rai could ever picture being old enough to have children.

Nonetheless, the boy felt unqualified to voice any opinion on Silver's lovelife, that was...just not his area of expertise.
 
OOC: Heh! Kuro's stomach hurting cracked me up! =D This is the sort of thing that happens when you have a relationship with animals/pets involved. Or so I've heard. XD Actually, Mac used to do it with my parents. They'd be holding each other or kissing or something, and Mac would suddenly instert himself between them, or bark until they separated. Hee hee, I'd laugh so much at that.

And I agree with Alter, Charon. Psychology is really interesting, but yeah, like most subjects, you have to have a fun teacher. I've taken quite a few Psychology classes in college so far, and they've been among my favorites.

Okay, Yibber, lemme just say that I would die if I were you. Just. Die. I hate classes like that, and I hate people yelling at me. (I'm sensitive you know? XD) And shooting stuff?? o.o I've never had the heart to use a gun, nor do I think it sounds 'fun'. XD That's horrible what they did to you! It's mean! However, since it looks like you're stuck with it, I wish you all the luck I have. May there be lots of times you march in just the shade. ^-^

Where's Plushie at anyway? She hasn't posted in a while....


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

Amelia had commented a little more on her feelings and Zachary suddenly felt self-conscious a bit. While he was sure that Amelia had probably gotten the attention of some boys in her time, he had never really gotten the attention of a girl before, unless it was as friendship or a conversation about school. However, before the girl could finish her statement, Kuro began to wail considerably loud over by where he had been.

The trainee spun around and Zachary looked over to the little guy with concern too. He looked like whatever was wrong with him really hurt, and as Amelia asked what was wrong, he just kept wailing.

Suddenly there were more pressing things to deal with besides love; like apologizing to Nurse Gwendolyn as the girl no doubt wanted to do. Not to mention he had heard Maxie's comment about getting back to the others. Rai probably wanted to get back to going to his first gym battle! Zachary felt himself coming back down to the real world as he walked up to Kuro and Amelia.

"Hey... we should get him to the Pokemon Center. He really does look like he's in a lot of pain," he said, leaning over to look at the cat pokemon, "You would know more than I would about it though."

OCC: Omfg.. I'm laughing out really loud IRL.. Yibber got into NPCC.. She'll probably be punished for not being able ta' discipline herslef.. Well.. at least I got into choir.. which was meh first choice(this may seem weird.. but don't laugh..)

IC:

"Ish that seriously love??" Silver asked standing back straight.. "Whenever I'm near Zachary, my heart starts pounding.. and like my mind just goes suddenly blank.. and like everything in the surrounding will soon fade.. and only Zachary will be left.. standing there.. looking at me.." she paused for a moment.. "But with Amelia around.. there's no way Zachary is gonna notice me.. He probably don't even know my feelings for him.. Even though I tried to make it very obvious.."

She looked at the direction Zachary went and then turned back to Jena.. "I can't deny the fact that Amelia is much more perfect than I am.. but do Zachary have to treat me like this? Why is he treating me like this..? Do everyone have to treat me like this? Treating me so well at first.. and slowing starting to ignore me.. then end up forgetting that i ever existed.." She suddenly turned and embraced Jena.. "Tell me.. what should I do??"
 
OOc-

Oh Feebas.>_<
Usually they'll let you quit your co-curricular activities to join another one. But NO...NPCC has to be the CCA that you can't quit once you join.X3'

Anyways, I don't like guns.So there goes my chance to get one shiney badge and become a 100% Marksman.>_<

But yeah, I'm not the type to do these stuff. My friends were like all- 'OMG!!OMG!!!OMG!! You're in NPCC??!?!LOLZ!!! I just can't picture you in that uniform!!'

XD

But, the benefits are that you get ALOT of credit, so it'll help me pass the Final Exam I need to take after three more years. Then, there are those many, many prettful shiney badges!! So shiney!!*eyes start sparkling*

I'll manage. Plus, all that running about and drills and marching's bound to help me lose weight.X3
Just, need to get my hair to stay out of my face when I'm supposed to be standing still. And, my mom'll kill me with my complection darkens under the Sun.o.O
She's really proud of us not being pure Singaporeans, having fair skin and all.

And the funny Officer in Command dude shouts really loud!(Don't really mind the shouting though) I almost fell out of my seat during the lecture.X3 *Just..stay on his good side,Yibber, and you'll be fine. Yes, very fine.* And half the commands they give out during a drill are in...Malay?O_o

Bleh, anyways, I'll manage going for 5hours straight without food to march around and stuff once a week.^^;;

(Don't laugh at me, Flissi! I was the only one who wasn't talking/fidgeting when we were made to stand out in the Sun. Fear my hidden-disipline!>3)


*gaspen*
Yes, Melissi. Plushie has been gone for sometime and now I'm starting to miss her again.o.O

Ic-

"Eh..?"Jena tilted her head as Silver started explaining how she felt. No, it wasn't possible that Silver liked Zachary. And yet, the way the girl said it out seemed to make sense to her. Either that, or Silver was exaggerating on it again.

"SIlver, um..You know.."the Coordinator was really in deep Feebas now. She couldn't think of anything else to say to the young trainer. One person alone couldn't handle the complexities of Silver's mind. Maybe Kayley or Rai could help..

Wait. Jena didn't want to get them into trouble with the conversation.

"It could be just young love you know."brushing the ides away,she laughed a nervous laugh, wondering what was the next thing she would say. Or do.

"Eh?!EH?!"Jena called out in shock as Silver proceeded to start hugging her. The girl waved her hands in the air, surprised that she would even do such a thing.The Mudkip on her shoulder was now clinging onto her arm using all four legs.{Hey!! That's my place you're getting,yes?}Cascade frowned, hoping that the person with the funny helmet would let go of his trainer soon.

"Calm down, Silver. Zachary doesn't hate you. I can vouch for that. I mean, even the rest also think that way.."the Coordinator stopped struggling ,mostly for the fact that she would have brought the girl and herself down falling if she continued. Well, also because she felt extremely sorry of Silver.

"No parents.."she sighed grabbing Silver on the shoulders and slowly sat herself and the girl with the constant randomness on the ground.

"You should stop thinking of Zachary as one of those people who..betrayed you. And start treating him like your friend again. Maybe then he'll treat you better, eh?"Jena gave her a pat on the back, allowing Silver to continue with the hugging.
 
OOC:

*just noticed*

Jena says 'eh' alot, eh? XD

I feel for ya, Yibber. We dun live very far away from the equator down here either. XD

I think we're farther away from it than Singapore, though. But I'm too lazy to get my globe and check.

*hugs No-Face*

So huggable.. :3



IC:





"DADDY~~!!!!!!"


The girl's call resonated throughout the mansion, through hallways, libraries, sitting rooms, all throughout the house. The structure of the walls seemed to encourage the voice further through the mansion, causing it to get louder and louder with every room it passed through. It continued on, blasting through a kitchen, through bedrooms, and downstairs to meet the ears of an ordinary man standing at the grand mahogany doorway.

This man seemed like any other. He had arrived in a grey business suit, with a matching hat and pair of shoes in similar colors. The hat wasn't big enough to fully hide away his groomed jet black hair, which all the same did nothing to hide his expression of joy. His grin only grew wider as he heard his daughter call his name.

In no time his daughter had actually appeared, propping herself up on the second story railing so she could confirm with her own eyes that her father was home. She wore her long, chocolate brown hair in two pigtails, her eyes seeming to shine a lighter shade of brown than normal. She, too, seemed to be grinning from ear to ear, and almost as soon as she had laid eyes on him, she dropped down to the floor and immediately proceeded to hurry down the stairs as fast as she could, if only to meet with the man as soon as humanly possible.

So filled with joy was she that the girl was certain it was all a dream..



Kayley had decided to recall such times at the moment. Times when she was so happy of her father's return that she herself wasn't even sure it was real. She remembered these moments the most, for none gave her as much joy, save one, actually. The conversation from earlier had gotten to her again, and as she had backed away from Zach like Rai had suggested earlier, her frame of mind had returned to thinking about her father.

She saddened as she recalled these memories, thinking of how she actually hadn't seen her father at home in a while now. She said nothing as things happened around her, involuntarily continuing to hold her trumpet case in one hand, and Fishy in the other.

If it wasn't for the Mud Fish tossing and turning again in her grip, or that Kinaki had begun to make attempts at waking Fishy with the pokes of her huge maw, Kayley probably would've continued daydreaming for a good deal longer.

"Huh!?" She couldn't help letting out, snapping to reality and looking around for a moment to see Silver hugging Jena a short distance away. Well, that was obviously something she didn't want to get involved with..

Turning to Rai, the only other person in the vicinity, while Kinaki continued trying to poke Fishy out of his sleep, she spoke again.

"Do you have any idea of what they're doing?" She asked, her expression one of pure confusion, her eyes occasionally shifting to Jena and Silver.
 
OCC: Meh ish still feeling funny over Yibber being in NPCC.. XD


IC:

"Young love?? What is young love all about? Being young and loving someone??" Silver asked sniffling.. She slowly let go of Jena and wiped the tears off her face.. "Well.. I didn't ever think Zachary betrayed me.. Did I ever said that I did?? I've always treated him as a friend and so did he.. But now.. I kinda treat him more than just a friend.. and I really want him to treat me the same like how I'm treating him.." She paused for a while and sighed..

{Is this like part of growing up??} Yukari asked Miruka.. The Bagon stared at the Swablu for a moment and answer {I suppose so.. But Silver is really heartbroken this time..}

Silver took a deep breath and told Jena.. "Sorry for taking up so much of your time.." She then took Jena by the hand and said, "Let's go back to where Kayley and Rai is.." She smiled at the other girl as she slowly walked back..
 
OOc-

Like, stop the laughing!!!
*whacks Flissi with her blue cheese*

Just wait till' I manage to become an Honorary Inspector!
It'll take...5 more years and lots of endurance though..*crosses out*

Just..just wait till' I get all my stripes and shiney badges!
Then, we'll see who's laughing!!X3

And, eh, yeah Plushie, Jena inherits it from Zhena.XD

Ic-

"Um..eh.."Jena bit her lip as Sliver started asking more questions again about love. As if she was a psycologist, the Coordinator wondered how much more of this could she endure before crumbling. She felt a bit relieved as the trainer let go of her after asking the questions.

"I don't really know how to explain. But usually, young love isn't really true love. Its just this feeling you get when you really like someone...Zachary for example. But, since its just young love, it'll go away sooner or later."she flinched as Silver grabbed her hand, afraid that the girl would starting hugging her again.

"Eh...yeah. We'd better get back. Must think we're crazy or something."she smiled at the girl with the Bagon and Swablu. Getting up from the ground for the second time that day, Jena was very, VERY glad that that was over with.

{ Wee' yes! Ai believe so! Love, iz sucha complexy thin' , ai find it 'ard to unzerstand too! 'eartbreak has to be zhe' worst!} Tania had let go of the shivering Orjen before hopping over to where Miruka and Yukari stood. The little bird just had to voice her opinion on everything which caught her interest.

"No, you didn't take up my time. I don't really mind helping a friend in need."Jena followed Silver, saying the statement honestly.

"Nothing was going on with us. Eh, Silver just tried to ambush me with a hug."she overheard Kayley's question, shrugging as she explained what happened before laughing.
 
OOC: Meh, I would already have written an IC yesterday but I ran out of time too early. >.< Oh well, better late than never I always say. ^-^

Anyways, your dog did that too, Melissa? xD I made Kuro act like that becuase it's precisely what our dog does when she's feeling left out, she walks over real close then start barking and wagging her tail, especially if people are hugging each other. xD

And, uh...yay for your shiny badge and whatnot, Yibber! ^0^ Meh, it's kind of funny, though, here you guys are lamenting about how hot it is outside while I'm freezing my arse of in -22.something degrees celsius (Siberia says 'hi' again <.<), plus, I had to get out there at 7 AM this morning because our dog was having stomach problems and had already sh-, ahem, excreeted in the downstairs shower room and I had to take her out for a walk before she did any more. Now there was a lovely wake-up call...~_~

IC:

"Erm...they were discussing love, I believe." Rai replied to Kayley's inqury, although Jena was quite quick to explain things herself as well, "You seemed a bit absent-minded back there by the way..." he added thoughtfully to the girl with the trumpet case, "Were you thinking about something in particular?"

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

Amelia bit her lip, "Yes, I suppose so..." she replied reluctantly, "It's confusing, though, I can't really see anything physically wong with him..."

{Huuuuuuuurtsssssss!} Kuro insisted in his most pitiable voice.

Amelia sighed, picking up the Meowth in her arms and getting back up onto her feet. Why did Kuro have to fall sick now out of all times? Just when she and Zachary were- It was so unfair. But still, she knew that the moment was over, the spell broken, everything was back to normal again. The trainee turned back to properly adress Zachary.

"I'm not going to go plead with that Gwendolyn woman to get my job back, though, if that's what you're getting at." she told him in an unusually determined tone, "I'm not going to go back to being bullied around anymore, although I'll see if I can't get to use the healing device, I would have had to go back eventually, though, just to return the uniform and get my regular clothes."
