[PKMN OPEN] The Pokémon Trainer Academy (T) [Best Veteran 4Q '11]

Xavier

Xavier held the little Joltik in his arms, poor little guy, because of Xavier his mother was taken from him.

That tore at him, Xavier knew what it was like to lose a loved one, a mother, and now it was his fault that nother felt the same pain, the little pokemon was so young... yet he was strong enough to finish off that Golurk, which was pretty darn impressive. Still it was in no way fair that the little fuzzball had its mother taken from him like that.

Xaviers clothes were filthy after thaat battle, the power plant was quite dirty anyway and now so was he.

Xavier felt the Joltik snuggle up to his chest in its sleep.

"Mama..." It murmured.

Xavier felt so upset for the little pokemon. He'd have to take care of it now. Of course he didn't mind, he had wanted a bug type pokemon... but at thta moment, the concequences outlived the rewards. He wished none of that had ever happened. But it had.

Xavier decided it was best if he didn't tellthe others how he had come across this little guy, it didn't seem right to worry others with a sad story on a day when scary ones were meant to be told.

Thats right, it was Halloween, Xavier had almost forgotten, Burgh would've made him a costume, but to Xavier knowledge Burgh had just up and left after the dance without a goodbye. That wasn't like him at all.

"Oh... hello Mr. Comfy-head." Xavier looked down to see the little pokemon in his arms looking up at him with four bright blue eyes.

"Mr. Comfy-head?" Xavier asked.

"Yeah, your head was very comfortable, just like Mamas nest!" The little Joltik said happily at first, but he frowned when he though of his "Mama". However he quickly perked up and looked around to see that they were walking down a road, with Oak town and the academy on the horizon.

"Where're we going?" He asked.

"To Oak academy." Xavier replied.

"Mama said thats where the peoples live... there and Firr town." The little Joltik said.

"Ummm... you mean Oak town..." Xavier murmured.

"Oh right, yeah there!" The joltik said.

He looked at Xavier skeptically.

"Are you my new Mama?" He asked.

*AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW* Xavier thought.

"Well.... not your Mama, more like your friend, I help you and you help me. We work together, I'm your trainer." Xavier explained.

"Mama said she had a trainer once, but he was mean so she ran away when I was still an egg... you don't look mean though, you helped me against the mean man who hurted Mama!" The joltik smiled.

"But if I'm your pokemon ad your my trainer, then don't I have to go in a pok.. pokep... pokeb..." The joltik tried to pronounce the word.

"Pokeball?" Xavier asked.

"Yeah that!" The Joltik said happily.

"I have it here... but are you sure you want to..." Xavier said pulling out the pokeball."

"Yay pokepaul!" The Joltik giggled jumping into the ball.

It shook three times and dinged.

Looks like Joltik was officially his pokemon.

Moments later however the pokeball burst open and Joltik jumped out back into Xaviers arms.

"Oh Comfy head, I don't like it in there, it's dark and cramped and icky!" The Joltik whimpered.

"Oh well... I guess you don't need to stay in it ALL the time..." Xavier muttered, slightly annoyed by how fast the Joltik got distracted.

"Whats my name? When Mama had a trainer she said her name was Lightning. So whats my name?" The Joltik asked.

"Look will you stop changing the subject every feww seconds you annoying little fuzzball!" Xavier said annoyed.

"Fuzzball... I like it, Comfy-head!" The oltik, errrr... Fuzzball, climbed up onto Xaviers head and began to fall asleep.

"Wake me when we get there comfy-head." Fuzzball yawned before falling asleep.

"My name is not... *sigh"" Xavier sighed this little guy was going to be a handfull.

Xavier just shrugged and waled into the academy, wearing a filthy Suicune dorm jacket and a joltik on his head.
 
"What am I supposed to pay my breakfast with? I doubt they'll acept rocks!" Jimmy muttered before realising that both guys had left and that Maxwell had given him a map. "Oh, whatever..." he said, "Smokey, let's get outta here..."

Smokey nodded and then followed his trainer, who was starting to feel even more dizzy as he left the cafeteria and made his way to Battelfield 8. After tripping over three times in his walk that lasted for less than five minutes, he got there. "Well, here we are. Battlefield 8. Now let's get this over with..." Jimmy said, a hint of annoyance in his voice.
 
Rama laughed and shook his head. "Oh you poor stupid brat," he quipped. "I remember being that naive."

"Now you're just that obnoxious," Ellie told him coolly as she looked at the Eevee. "And no I will not put you down so you can destroy Skye's room more. And even if we had ice cream, you do not need it."

Pala pouted. "You were going to take stuff from Skye! You are bad!" She declared this while crossing her arms.

Skye laughed some more and smiled at Bri. "Huh-hi Bri, Drih-Drizzle, Thuh-Thyme." He grinned happily. "Yuh-yours." he summarized to them and frowned a little. "Heh-he duh-doesn't luh-like you muh-much."

Rama saw Thyme and let out another cackle. "Finally, she looks right! That costume suits you! Hah!"

Pala blinked at Bri. "Apple?"

~~

Ciel was lost. He was hopelessly lost. He hadn't even bothered to check where the Electric type specialization was. What was he going to do? He was in the mountains! "Um..." Okay just don't panic, don't panic! He looked around. Maybe there was someone up here who knew where it was! He would just have to look. Yes!

Triac made a quiet baah, slightly concerned. Then he paused, ears twitching underneath the wool. Ciel looked down at his Flaafy in worry then heard a wail. It was a loud, desperate cry, one of a baby. What would a baby be doing up here? Was it a human baby? Even worse! He returned Triac for Kinko, who instantly started sniffing around. She ran toward a cave, prompting Ciel to follow. He hoped they made it in time.
 
Brian

"Stow it furball!" Thyme snarled. She wasn't the only one of Bri's pokemon that was getting upset. Sprinkles was also getting a bit irate.

"Put me down! I wasn't going to take stuff! I wasn't destroying anything! Let-" Sprinkles said, but he was cut off by the red beam of light from his pokeball as he was returned.

"Sorry Skye. My big brother's girlfriend gave him to me for my birthday... I just met him. He's really hyper. And he ate the cupcakes mama sent... Oh well... Anyways, it's Halloween! This is going to be fun! I bet Leena would love it! Leena! Come on out!" Brian said. He reached around and grabbed her ultra ball off of his belt and popped it open, but nothing came out. Bri froze. Leena was gone too?

"What is it with all of your pokemon taking off on you? First Nova goes to train, then Sprinkles, and now Leena for god only knows what!" Thyme said angrily as she shook her head.

"Eh, she's probably gone to pull some prank. It is Halloween. I bet we'll hear from her later today," Drizzle said as he leaned against Brian's legs.

Leena

Ghostly laughter could be heard all throughout the halls of Suicune Dorm. Leena floated in the wall behind one of the girls, laughing madly. She floated up to her and gave her hair a long and painful tug before dropping through the floor. Hm... This was getting boring. Leena watched as the girl yelped and looked around nervously. Yup... Boring. She remembered that time she and Snype had scared the entire school to pieces. That was it!

"SNYPE!!! MWEHEHEHE!!!" Leena wailed. The girl shrieked at the sudden noise and walked as fast as she could wherever she was going. Snype! He would be perfect to help her with this! She floated out of the dorm and began to look for the Sableye.
 
Selene
Her back turned to Valorie, Selene smiled to herself with her hand resting on a hanger as she spoke, her friend sounded happy enough after last night, which to be honest was more than Sel had been hoping for. Part of her had expected Valorie to want to back track on the whole thing - which given how she had poured her heart out the night before wouldn't have worked out very well for her...

Then Valorie effectively turned the question back on Selene which took her somewhat by surprise - sure, Valorie had every right to ask Selene how she felt about the whole thing, just as Sel had done. But she hadn't expected her to ask for some reason...she took a few moments before she replied, sifting through her wardrobe until she ran out of rail. She hadn't even been looking at her clothes, she had no idea what she was going to wear.

"Me too...it was really nice...you know, to just...be close...and stuff..." she trailed off somewhat awkwardly, not knowing what else to say to that really. Go too heavy for it and it would put way too much pressure not only on herself but on this burgeoning relationship that was developing, but scrimp too lightly on how she felt and Valorie would, she was sure, begin to grow tired of her reluctance and question her. It was difficult, she felt, to strike the correct balance...which made her feel somewhat guilty, surely these things should be coming to her naturally yet instead she was finding it difficult to figure out what she felt and how to express this to Valorie. As she pulled out a pair of black skinny jeans she caught sight of herself in the full length mirror and quickly looked away, not quite able to look herself in the eye right then. It must only be natural that, given how difficult she was finding it to figure out her own feelings, she was struck by the notion of expressing said feelings to Valorie. She mustn't feel guilty.

Glancing at her desk she saw the flip over calendar of pictures of her family that her parents had given her before she left for the Academy...Halloween. It was Halloween?! Arceus...she had seriously lost track of time here. The Academy was such a bubble environment it wasn't really surprising, it was their entire world now.

"It's Halloween," she blurted out somewhat obviously to Valorie, not sure if her friend was aware of the holiday that was upon them. "Are we meant to be dressing up or something?" she asked, her hand almost instinctively lowering the skinny jeans down as though ready to drop them to the floor should Valorie respond to her question in the affirmative.
 
Ellie stopped using Psychic and glanced at Thyme. "Take a joke," she stated while shaking her head. "It's better than getting all riled up over nothing. You're just encouraging him." Rama cackled his agreement.

Pala blinked again and frowned. "Halloween?" she repeated in confusion.

Skye smiled. "Hah-happy bih-birthday Bri," he said happily. He paused for a second to look for his TM case, thankfully finding it still intact. He picked it up and opened it, looking through the discs. Most of them weren't useful right now because of his team but that could change. "Heh-here," he stated, spinning a silver disc on his finger. "Thih-this is Iron Tail. Ih-hit could wuh-work with Spruh-Sprinkles."

Rama snorted. "Be careful he doesn't hit you. Besides, that mutt will be fine. He's got enough spunk."

~~

Ciel had thankfully reached the source of the cry. It was a baby, a baby Absol. But... Absol weren't on the mountain. He had been here before and despite the rarity of the creature, hadn't seen a spot of white fur anywhere until now. Though the white fur was slightly reddish due to there being blood on it. Thankfully it wasn't hurt too badly, but Ciel felt a slight fever on the creature's head. And he had no water to try and cool it off. He got to his feet, clutching the crying baby to his chest.

Behind him was the sound growling and the boy froze, Kinko growled low as she was surrounded by Axew, Phanpy, Sawk, and Mankey, among other Pokemon. Ciel's eyes narrowed and he released Triac and Chika. They turned to attack and Phanpy spun into a Rollout. Ciel thought it would hae been cute if it wasn't attacking him. Chika dodged and it slammed into the cave wall. Ciel was vividly aware of his vision and stepped back. However, it was too late. Mankey had also missed and hit the wall and the ground seemed to tremble. Phanpy trumpeted and charged forward again.

Triac meant well in his counter, spinning his tail in Rock Smash. IT hit and smacked it into the wall like a baseball. Unfortunately the roof did give way and the entrance was blocked off, leaving Kinko on the other side with some Pokemon to fight. Luckily the Phanpy and Axew panicked and fled, leaving an enraged Mankey and a still fighting Sawk. Kinko growled and leapt toward the Mankey. It was all his fault! She was gonna kick his tail!
 
In the middle of Battefield 8 floated a rather large Weezing. It was just...floating there, staring at the students that arrived.

"Wee... Zing! [Come... Out!]," said the Pokemon, its voice sounding like it was trying extremely hard to breathe. Out of nowhere, a Venomoth and Crobat flew out from the trees and circled the students, scaring a few of them until the both of them landed on top of the Weezing.

"Veno! Veno! VENO! VENOMOTH! [Nyx! Nyx! NYX! SHOWTIME!]" shouted the Venomoth, its voice sounding surprisingly soothing while buzzing. Several of the trees suddenly turned black and wilted, falling to the ground as a male Roserade was revealed. Staring at several of the students, as if disapprovingly, he walked to the Weezing. He then looked around, obviously looking for someone.

"Ade! Roser ro ade? [Hey! Where is he?]" asked the Roserade known as Nyx as a deafening roar was heard from the forest. Turning, the Pokemon saw a rather large Nidoking, standing at least seven feet tall. On his left shoulder, however, was a sharp-dressed man dressed in a suit. The cane in his left hand seemed rather old, and it had a wooden snake twirled around it. As the man jumped down, his blond hair briefly covered his face until he moved it back.

"Welcome one and all to the Poison-type class! I am your teacher today, Fyrir Lucas Douglas, but please, address me as Mr. Lucas," said the gentleman as he bowed to the students. For a Poison-type specialist, he seemed rather...gentlemanly. Standing straight up, he smiled at the students. "Now, I was just recently brought here to teach students about Statuses, but for my first day, my superiors thought it would be best if I lectured about the Poison-type."

"Today, instead of taking notes, I thought it would be fun to instead show you the strengths of the Poison-type class. Now, could someone please answer this question for me: What are Poison-types known for?"

A simple question yes, but many people were wrong when they answered. Hopefully, one of the students would get the question right.
 

Valorie Ryder


Valorie simply smiled pleasantly throughout Selene's response. Overall she seemed to be pretty cheery now that she had woken up. Her brain was focused on the better things in life and not her own problems, which she admitedly still had. Things like training hard, dealing with the heat between Mark and Selene, risking her life by going to Lugia Dorm, which is not closed off for any reason at all, by the way. among other things. Yet, suddenly Selene brought up the fact that it was Halloween and Valorie froze up. Oh snap! She had almost forgotten! She had costumes, yes, but she had almost forgotten it was /today/! It was.possibly because she had been so wrapped up with what had happened last night.

"Oh snap! You're right! I need to change into my costume! ...~ What are you dressing up as?"

She then turned to Selene, interested. She had several different costumes. Maybe they could do something together with them? It was worth asking anyway.
 
Mark noticed Maxwell began to catch up to him and had offered him some chips. Mark still had some room to eat a little extra so he gladly accepted the offer. He took a few chips for himself and started to eat some.

"Sure! Thanks." Mark said to Max. Snype swiped a chip too and tried one out for himself. He wasn't really fond of the taste though but either way, he managed to eat it up, giving a little twitch to the odd taste. After a bit of walking, Mark had made it to the classroom and assuming Maxwell followed the whole way, he would have too. The teacher didn't seem to be there luckily but there was a fair crowd of students at least. Mark decided to sit down about 3 seats to the back around the middle row.
 
Brian

Bri's eyes widened when he was handed the TM.

"W-wow... Thanks Skye! But, my birthday isn't for another few days. My family only sent me this stuff to get me my costume..." Bri said as he held the TM with shaking hands.

"Humph... Whatever you say," Thyme said as she scowled at Ellie. Bri returned Drizzle and looked.

"Uh... I... I have to go to class now Skye... Um... Sorry about Sprinkles... I'll work with him later and I'll... I'll try to replace anything he broke... Thanks again for the TM!" Brian said as he shoved it into his bag.

Quin

"How the hell do we get down?" Quin said. Arcino ignored him, focusing on shattering the rock. Quin looked out over the landscape. He had just dashed off after some students. How was he supposed to know they weren't going to Grass Type Specialty?

"You're no help!" Quin said wagging his finger at the Grovyle.

"Gro!" he said with a tut. Quin turned around and saw a little Sandshrew. His eyes lit up and he walked over to it. He bent down and picked it up. It was clearly displeased by this. Quin didn't seem to notice.

"Aren't you just the cutest thing ever!" he cooed. The sandshrew was mildly put out and started squirming.

"Aww... He wants a hug!" Quin said. He pulled the female Sandshrew into a tight hug. She shrieked and began struggling, but Quin was oblivious.

"Where's your mama little boy?" he asked as Zara laughed crazily.
 
Maxwell smiled when Mark accepted some chips, it meant that they were probably going to be great friends in the future, or thats what Maxwell thought atleast. He chuckled when Snype twitched, Hippowdo's had a very certain taste and they were those kinds of things were you either liked them or not.

Maxwell poked his head in through the door, with the mask still plastered to his face. Burgh didn't seem to be there, this made Maxwell both relieved and dissapointed at the same time. He was surprised by the amount of students,
"Wow, seems crowded in here..." Maxwell said as he returned Wilson, Quillie and Slackey to their pokeballs. He saw Mark take a seat in the middle row, and Maxwell decided to follow. He couldn't spot anyone he knew it seemed so why not try to flourish his and Mark's friendship a bit?

"Is it okay i I sit here?" Maxwell asked Mark. He was certain that Mark would say yes, but it always helped to be a little polite and ask first. While awaiting for Mark's response, Maxwell searched the inside of his robe for a pen and a notebook.
 
Adria

Adria sighed a bit as she exited the cafeteria after eating breakfast. "What class should I go to?" she muttered "I'll just go to a classroom and see where I end up, should be fun" she said smiling and wandered through the halls finding herself in a classroom that by the sound of it she could tell it was busy. Taking a seat at the front just to make sure that whoever the teacher was would be able to tell she was blind she asked the person next to her "What class is this?"

"Oh this is the bug type classroom" a boys voice said.

Adria smiled to herself "Thank you" she said before thinking "Bug Type's, that sounds interesting"
 
Selene
"Costume...yeah...I have something," said Selene with a slight frown, dropping the jeans to the floor and turning with a slightly troubled expression to look at the trunk rested atop her wardrobe. She bit her bottom lip and walked over to the suitcase to reach up and pull it down with a slight wobble on the way down - Selene kept a lot of things in her suitcase, as such it wasn't particularly light. In truth, Sel despised dressing up in costumes for holidays like Halloween or Christmas which could be seen as unusual given her outgoing personality. Should one question her on /why/ she disliked costumes so much she wouldn't be able to give an answer. But she just didn't.

"Seems like Ryan and I will be matching this year," she said with a small smile, opening up her trunk and rifling through some moth-eaten blankets to find a plastic sealed bag. Emptying the contents out onto her bed, she looked over a thin plastic headband with a large pair of Raichu ears stuck onto it, yellow circles for her cheeks, and an all-in-one body suit with Raichu coloring and markings. Not to mention a large, wire tail that could curve wherever Selene set it to. Ultimately it was as good as costume as Selene could hope to wear.

Smiling lopsidedly at Valorie, she gathered the costume into her arms and nodded toward her bathroom, going into the room and changing quickly into the costume. She emerged back into her bedroom pulling gloves over her hands and held her arms out wide, standing in front of Valorie, turning to show her the whole costume. Hearing Valorie's opinion would be make or break for whether she actually wore the costume that day or whether she turned right back around and neglected to make any effort for Halloween whatsoever.
 
Skye smiled a little. "Yuh-You're welcome," he said brightly. "Ih-hit's best to gih-get it nuh-how or I-hI'll forget." Skye looked at the suddenly exiting boy and waved. "Buh-Bye!"

Ellie watched Thyme and shook her head. "What did I do, step on your tail? Jeez and I thought Rama was childish."

"Oi, I am not forgetting the time you threw me into the mud," Rama warned. Ellie shrugged and began putting things away carefully. She floated the box where the Jirachi statue sat into Skye's hands. Skye opened it and sighed with relief. If this had been broken... he didn't know how he would face his father, he just had no clue what he would say, if he even could get something out. Skye reached and placed it in his bedside drawer before picking up the rest of his mess. When his floor was clean again, he returned Ellie and left, Pala and Rama padding after him.

"What class are you going to?" Rama asked and Skye shrugged.

"Duh-Dark," he quipped, causing Rama to snort. "Or Ih-Ice."

"Go to Ice, see if they can figure out Pala."

~~

Ciel felt his eyes welling up with tears. The Absol's wails had died down to hushed pants, which scared him. It was sick! And he was trapped in a cave! Chika let out a couple soothing coos as Ciel's breath hitched over and over. There were small pebbles floating everywhere, as well as a confused and annoyed Geodude and a very merry Diglett. Chika sighed as the soft whimpering from her human turned quickly to all out crying as he gently hugged the baby. The Absol smelled the salt water and licked his cheek.

Triac observed this quietly, the gem on his tail shining for light. Their human liked the dark but they were in a cave for Mew's sake.

"Where on Earth is Raph?" Chika asked the air after a moment, grumbling a bit. "He's supposed to help Ciel and the time he needs it, the angel's off preaching to the choir."

"Relax Chika," Triac soothed. "He works for Lady Sophia as well. He cannot be expected to be here all the time."

"He's hardly here at all," she pointed out with a hint of annoyance. She softened and cooed at her human again, the crying boy not hearing a thing. "Triac, let's try destroying some of this."

"And possibly kill ourselves with another rock slide? Let us do so carefully then."

~~

Kinko let out a victorious yowl. "Revenge dipwads!" she declared merrily. She then turned to the rubble. But what about Ciel? And Triac? And Chika? If Chika fell... she would be able to fly anymore! That would just suck!

She took off with a set of anxious barks, wanting to find someone, anyone big and strong! She then saw a boy with a Sandshrew. "HEY! HEY! HEY!" she yipped anxiously, ignoring the big and scary Grovyle. "Master's in trouble, master's in lots of lots of trouble. There's a sick baby and a rock slide and a mean, mean Mankey, and a whole bunch of blue elephants and-" Kinko continued to babble, hoping she got the weirdos attention.

~~

"Guh-Guys?" Ciel whispered, looking at the other end of the cave. "Something's coming..." There was something there... but... what was it?
 
Calnith Sol NeverWind

Calnith smiled, this girl never ceased to amaze him. He wasn't sure if she was telling the complete truth nor did he really care at the time. He was mainly surprised at how powerful the HoTa Corp was and realized he had great information on the Corporation. They are in league with Team Rocket and probably even more criminal organizations and nothing would stop Calnith from going straight to the police if Brogan were to ever cross him.

"No I don't need to speak with my parents," He said coldly thinking about his ties to Team Rocket. There was still no say in whether Taylor was still looking out for revenge against Calnith for attacking him.

"I have to be honest I'm quite surprised at the power of HoTa Corp but how can I guarantee that Team Rocket or anyone else tied to the Corp won't just back stab you?" He asked

Vincent Xackford Luna

Ok what in the world was going on?! As Vince snapped out of it he watched as his pokemon were being attack by a powerful set of pokemon controlled by the girl who was emanating a shadowy aura. What was with that aura? Vince was so confused and his pokemon weren't going to wait for orders this time around.

As the wave of sludge came at Vince's pokemon Blitz quickly intercepted it with a Dragon Pulse, as the two moves collided they seemed to cancel each other out. As the Eelektrik came at Blitz, Terra had used dig to get to the other side of the flame wall and jumped in the way getting hit by the attack instead of Blitz. The electric type attack had no effect on the Excadrill so Terra started to use a Horn Drill attack. As the horn on his head started to spin he lunged himself at the Eelektrik.

For the Shadow Punch attack, Blitz standing behind the Excadrill saw the first emerging from his shadow and flew in front of it taking the entire blow. It sent the Charizard back a bit but he quickly regained his balance and flew at the Golurk using a Dragon Claw attack. Dyno jumped out of the way of the Dragon Pulse attack only getting hit by the explosion a tad bit but it still did plenty of damage on the small pokemon. The Deino then fired off his on Dragon breath as Scissors, who popped out of his pokeball, joined in and fired a Water Gun at the Zweilous.

Shade had shallowed his fear and engaged the Gengar in battle by using a Faint Attack. The little Zorua disappeared for a moment and then reappeared behind the Gengar and lunged at the ghost pokemon. Wattage decided to battle the Swalot using a Thunderbolt attack at the poison type. Vincent just stood by and watched the battle rage on as he was frozen with shock.
 

Valorie Ryder


Valorie was a bit puzzled by Selene's seeming hesitance regarding Halloween. Yet, she smiled as Selene took out a Raichu costume. A part of her had had such a costume choice in mind for Selene. It seemed right anyway. Regardless, Selene proceeded to go change and come back with the costume on. She then showed it off from various angles while she was wearing. It took Valorie a moment or two to realize what she was doing.

"You're looking pretty good Selene..!"

Valorie silently questioned whether she was the best judge. Did her attraction to Selene interfere with her ability to judge her looks? ... ... ... Nah. She silently reasoned that she was judging the quality of the costume, and not intact her looks. It was a decent costume, though Valorie herself had gone out of her way to prepare for this day. She even had costumes for her pokemon, though she silently worried some of them wouldn't make it through the day intact. Oh well...
 
Brogan
So far so good, Calnith seemed...surprised at what Brogan and her Daddy had managed to pull. It was then that Brogan knew, Calnith understood /nothing/ of the powers of big business, let alone one of the biggest transnational corporations in the world. In many respects, HoTa Corp was like an autonomous state power, playing by her own set of rules in the world, answering to no-one, above even the supranational power structures meant to constrain her. This is where Brogan was gifted more than most. Many young adults, nay, many fully grown adults would struggle with this concept, but Brogan understood it all too clearly. She knew exactly which games to play, who to play them with and where to play them. Hence why her Father was so certain in his successor.

At the final question, Brogan actually choked herself, coughing and spluttering in shock. That question had derailed her cocksure persona - mainly because it amused her so.

"Darling," began Brogan, shaking her head incredulously. "i /am/ HoTa Corp. I am HoTa's future - this may be a multi- and supra-national business, but it is still very much a family run business. And anyway, they wouldn't be stabbing /me/ in the back," said Brogan with a flick of her hair over her shoulder, smiling dazzlingly at Calnith. "they'd be stabbing Father in the back. And anybody senior enough to know anything about...well, anything /worth/ knowing is too loyal to Father and know that if they dared leak anything to anybody, it would be more than their jobs or lives are worth. So no, Calnith, that is one thing I...sorry, /we/ definitely do not need to fret over."
 
"Oh yeah go right ahead." Mark said to Max. He didn't mind the company at all. He was always willing to make a new friend. Snype stayed perched onto Mark's shoulder while Able was flying around the room at high speeds to get a good idea of what it was like. She was extremely excited for class, to the point where she was getting impatient. Able flew in front of Mark and began to say something to him which would roughly translate as...

"Hey! When's the teacher coming? I wanna get started!"

Mark of course couldn't understand pokemon but just by looking at her, he could tell she wanted to start learning soon.

"Don't worry Able he'll be here soon. Give it awhile. He might be running late or something." Mark said. Able quickly flew over to Snype.

"Snype! Hey! The teacher is moving too slow! Let's go find him! He moves too slow! I could find him in an instant!" Able said extremely quickly. Snype chuckled.

"Keheh, Comon now Able. He'll be here soon. I doubt Mark would want you running off by yourself." Snype said. Able let off a sigh and continued to fly around the room. Her buzzing could be heard all over the classroom.
 
Brian

"Bye Skye! See you later! And thanks again!" Bri said happily. Thyme scowled at Ellie as they left. She turned around again and saw that Brian was moving.

"I think I'll go to Normal Type Specialization..." Bri mubled to himself. Thyme frowned. What, no grass type specialization?

"Why that one?" she asked in an off hand voice.

"Because I need to figure out how to get through to Sprinkles... And Duster. She's been acting odd since we got on the boat yesterday..." Brian said. Thyme went thoughtful at this. True, it might help Sprinkles. But Duster's issue was hers...

Quin

Quin looked at the pokemon that approached him. Sandshrew squirmed and writhed in his arms.

"Now now little guy. I'll take care of you. No need to be scared," he said mildly to the Sandshrew. The other pokemon wanted him to follow it seemed.

"Arcino! Let's go!" Quin said as he decided to humor the urrgent pokemon. Snadshrew shrieked and writhed around more. She clawed his arm.

"Ow! Knock it off!" Quin said as he followed behind the little Vulpix.

Leena

Leena floated along. She spotted Snype with his trainer and a few other students. She floated over to him with a wicked smile on her face.

"You know what today is, right? Mwehehehe!" she said as a greeting.

Jimmy stood there, watching the teacher's appearance. "Now that's kinda weird..." he whispered, then everything turned bright to him. He closed his eyes until everything came back to normal. THen he heard the teacher say "Today, instead of taking notes, I thought it would be fun to instead show you the strengths of the Poison-type class. Now, could someone please answer this question for me: What are Poison-types known for?"

He then heard the other students answer incorrectly. "Um, like, for poisoning others an' winning battles easier?" he answered, still dizzy as everything turned bright again and he closed his eyes.

"Koffing?" Smokey asked, meaning [Are you okay, man?]. He noticed his trainer was even more pale, and he knew that it couldn't be good.
