[IC] Pokémon Rewind. Arc I [PG15/Started/Not Accepting]

[Naimo]

"Bump." Regiana blinked; why was she saying that? Wasn't that used on forums - which don't exist in the sixties - to push a topic back into a noticeable position? "Now how do I know that?"

Valena stared oddly at her mistress ([i]She's gone crazy[/i] was her train of thoughts), and for once, poor Lee got the chance to swim into the middle of the pond and drift around in undisturbed circles, unaware of the strange manner that Regiana was behaving in. And of course, Naimo's presence - well, what [i]was[/i] her presence anyway, now that she's gone to fix the abused fourth wall.

[The Warden]

Lyla giggled a little at the Larvitar's dip in the pool. 'He certainly does get around a bit your little friend there' she commented, watching the trainer wait for his pokemon.

This made her think, if she did get a Zubat, would it like her? Myst himself willingly let her capture hi, but then came the point of fighting an actual wild pokemon. The thought sent shivers up her spine, or maybe it was the cave. The area was perpetually freezing, which is somewhat odd considering the pleasant wheather outside. 'Well, shall we go?'

[Hotaru987]

"Alright Pixie, use Ember." Noriko whispered to Vulpix as to not alert the pokemon of their prescense. Pixie stood back and began charging her attack. As the cave started to light up do to the light from the fire the Corsalas and the Corsweet began looking around in question. Seconds later Vupix shot her attack towards the ceiling of the cave causing little piece of rocks, and debree to fall down. They weren't large enough to cause any damage to the pokemon just enough to startle them.

There were many cries of "Corsweet!" and, "Corsola!!" as they surried out of the area and to a more secure spot. Suddenly Noriko spotted a Corsweet that had lagged behind. Noriko quickly ran out and intercepted it. "Pixie this is the one. Don't hurt it too bad, only stun him."

"Vul!"

"Use tak-"

"Vulpix!!" The sudden cry from Pixie startled Noriko and she looked at Pixie to see what was wrong only to see that a Corsola had backtracked for the left behind Corsweet. "Crap...I don't know if we're gonna get through this." She mumled as she began biting the nail on her thumb. "Vul! Vulpix!" Noriko looked down at Pixie surprised, before smirking. She should have known Pixie would want to continue. Pixie hated giving up.

"Alright then. Pixie use tackle!" Pixie charged the Corsola. However, Corsola countered with a tackle as well, which overpower Pixie's own and sent her flying back. "Come on! Get up Pix-What the..?" Noriko heard rumbling from overhead so she looked up. The ceiling was still trembling slightly and so there were still loose stones falling. And right over the Corsweet was a large piece of rock about to fall. "Hey move out of the way!" She tried to yell but before anything could be done a loud scream was heard.

"Corsweeeeeettt!!"

"Corsola! Cor! Cor!!" Corsola cried trying to move the boulder. Noriko was quick to run over and kneel next by them. "Hold on." Corsola quickly turned on Noriko about to attack but Pixie jumped in and began speaking rapidly to the other pokemon. "Please, I just want to help." Corsola watched Noriko before setpping back, and Noriko quickly got to work to move the rock. "On three I'm gonna lift it and then you can get Corsweet, ok Pixie." Pixie nodded. "1....2......3" Noriko grunted as she picked up the rock.

As soon as there was enough room Pixie dashed in and grabbed Corsweet by her mouth, and seconds later Noriko dropped the rock. "Man...I need to start working out." Noriko gasped as she collapsed to the ground. Corsola began fussing over Corsweet and examining the baby pokemon. Noriko watched with a sigh, "Oh well...I guess we should just count our losses. Its probably almost time to go anyway."

"Vul.." With a sigh Noriko stood and the two of them began to retraced their steps out of the cave.

[fenrir]

Cage picked up the Larvitar and dropped him away from the pool, seeing as he made no effort to move away. "Well, my target Pokémon is here in the pool. So... Let me catch it and then we can continue?" He edged over to the pool and scanned over it. It was fairly large, about the size of a small lake, yet from what he saw it wasn't all too deep. Several Staryus could be found in the water, attached to rocks and such. There were other Pokémon, such as Corsweet. Maybe there would also be a few Shellders? He didn't know.

First thing's first, he had to pick a Staryu. As he edged along the side he found about 5 of them, at least. Now he had to make a choice, which should he catch? Two of them had flashing cores, this meant either they would attract more Pokémon. The other three were not flashing, merely hanging on to their respective rocks. Cage picked up a small rock from the floor, and dropped it over the closest Staryu to his position. It landed with a 'smack' and the Pokémon launched itself upward, spinning like a shuriken.

Upon launching itself out of the water; it chose it's target. It shot itself towards Lyla, thinking the girl was the aggressor for some reason.

"Tyrant, bite!"

The Larvitar jumped upward, just barely managing to latch on to the spinning star. With it's weight added to the projectile, it crashed to the ground, creating a small dust cloud. Cage pulled out another Pokéball, un-tightened it, and threw it towards the cloud. As the dust settled it revealed Tyrant, sitting with his rocken-plumage looking tail sticking out of the ground.

"Atta boy Tyrant." And with that, Cage turned to Lyla. "Shall we continue?"

[Master Red]

The spheal didn't seem to understand why it was feeling so loopy all of a sudden as it struggled around in a wobbling way, tripping and falling occationally. "Medea, use peck!" Maya called, having warmed up a bit and could now speak properly. Medea obeyed instantly and swooped down on the little Spheal, pecking about on it's head several times. This aggravated the Spheal though and it shot a burst of water at Medea, who crashed down on the ground a bit further away, the hard ray of water having weighed her down too much to keep herself in the air. The confuse ray did a good job in making the Spheal messing up it's attacks though as it was attempting to do another water gun it accidentally swallowed the water in it's mouth instead of shooting it at medea, causing it to hack and cough.

"Medea, use Peck once again but make sure it doesn't get a chance to run down into the water!" Maya ordered her pokémon once more. This time it took a whole for Medea to carry out the command as she was struggling to get back up in the air, still being a bit dizzy from the crash. this was probably only good for Maya's sake, as when Medea got angry she also got more violent so this could work in her favor as it would help to take the Spheal out more quickly.

After a lot more attacks back and forth both Medea and the Spheal seemed to be getting worn out, Medea had been forced to use another couple of confuse rays to disorient the Spheal and keep it from running back to the water again but this seemed like a good enough time to go for the catch to Maya. She fumbled around in her bag, looking for the ball itself and threw it, managing to hit the Spheal directly (something she was happy about).

The ball wobbled around for a while on the ground and Maya watched in tension. It seemed as if it was caught but just as Maya was about to cheer the ball broke open again and the Spheal was there, panting. "N-no way..." Maya gasped, all that work had been for nothing. It was her only pokéball and now she couldn't catch the spheal at all. She slumped down a bit and stared at the Spheal, then at Medea and lastly at Micky. "I-I guess we can go then..." She mumbled, starting to get up. She was a bit sad over this failure but there was nothing to do about it. She had tried and she had failed, she could just hope for some more luck next time.

((OOC: Okay Magnet I am really handing Micky a moment to step in and be "the guy who saved the day here ))

[The Warden]

Strangely, Lyla wasn't even remotely afraid at the Staryu's attack. Though to be honest, she was beginning to feel signs when it cames too close for comfort. Thankfully her partner took it down and caught it before harm was made. 'Having a Staryu would be kind of helpful, I hear that they regenerate almost any part of their body besides their core. And the pieces that break off can be polished into Star Pieces, which fetch a good price from jewelers, really a good choice' she complimented, before shivering a little.

Her kimono was too thin and the air was too cold. 'Let's continue, we need to find a Zubat quickly'.

[Magnet Soldier]

((Micky's already Freezing his butt off. You do realise Maya still has his Jacket.))

Micky shivered, grabbing his bare arms and rubbing them, his breath freezing mid air. Not that he regretted giving his Jacket to Amaya. He had to be helpful right. He watched the battle fervently, watching attacks go back and forth rapidly, with Medea doing the most of the attacking. He though Amaya would catch the Spheal, she'd already almost defeated it, and had it at a disadvantage, but it was a great surprise when the Pokéball failed to catch the Spheal. Grabbing the one he'd been given by the teachers, he looked from Amaya, who looked like she might cry any minute, and his Pokéball, the only chance of catching a pokémon in these caves. He sighed and walked over to Amaya, crouching down next to her as she started to get up, placing his Pokéball under her face, offering it to her. "D-dont g-give up. Take mine. I've already got two Pokémon anyway." Micky stuttered, grinning at the fact he'd just solved his problem of what to catch. "J-just take it." He said, smiling. "I know you can c-c-catch it this time."

[Master Red]

((OOC: I do She never asked for the jacket though so joke's on Micky for being such a gentleman *laughs evilly*))

"Wha- really?" Maya was astounded at the fact that Micky would, in fact, hand her a pokéball and give up the chance of catching something. Perhaps he thought having yet another pokémon so early would be too much work? She accepted the pokéball and held it gingerly in her hands, as if it would immediately break if she held it too tight. [i]"Why is he studdering though?"[/i] Maya thought to herself and then realized that she was still wearing his jacket. She blushed a bit at this fact and slipped out of it and holding it out to him. "You're cold, put this back on... I'll be fine" she said, it was somewhat true at least. She had warmed up a bit now at least and the jacket would still not keep her hair from freezing, also, if she caught the spheal quickly the could be on their merry way out of the cave and into the warmth. [i]"hopefully we won't get sick"[/i] she thought to herself and then turned her attention back to the spheal.

"Okay Medea, one more peck and just to be sure, a confuse ray as well!" She commandeered and Medea wasn't one to linger. The spheal had gotten her hit with a snowlike attack and it seemed to have weakened her a lot.

After the attacks the Spheal seemed quite out of it, struggling to get to it's feet on the icy floor. This was her chance! Amaya threw the pokéball and once more hit the target, hopefully it would be captured this time. The pokéball wobbled once, twice, three times and then stopped. Just to be sure Maya waited for a little while longer not wanting to cheer too early, but it really seemed as if she had been successful this time!. She wanted to skip around and jump and cheer, but given the icy surface she'd probably fall and break something or fall into the water once more. Neither of those scenarios were ones she wished for so she just went with throwing her hands up in the air [s]saying AYO, gotta let go[/s] and cheered a bit. Medea circled around a bit looking pleased and then landed on Maya's shoulder, looking proud as can be. "Good job Medea, I couldn't have done it without you!" Maya exclaimed stroking the bird's head and Medea just looked even more smug. "And thank you too Micky, I would never have been able to catch it if it wasn't for you being here. I'll make it up to you somehow..." Maya said, giving the boy a quick hug and then walking over, very carefully, to collect her pokéball containing her new Spheal.

[fenrir]

Cage gave Lyla a glare beneath his shades, then nodded. "A useful addition, yeah." He returned Tyrant to his ball, and released the Staryu he caught earlier. "What to name you..." Truthfully he didn't really know what to name his Staryu, the little thing seemed to enjoy moving though. It never seemed to sit still, always cartwheeling around. It always seemed to be in it's own sort of... Stride. ...Stride. Stride... Strider? Yes, he liked that name. "I'll call you Strider, then." The Staryu cartwheeled in place, and it's core illuminated yellow. "Well then." Cage grabbed the Staryu by it's arms and turned to Lyla. "You lead the way."

[Magnet Soldier]

Micky smiled as Amaya accepted the Pokéball, glad that he'd gotten to know her more now, and watched as she turned back to face the Spheal again. He was also glad when she returned his Jacket, after warming herself up, as he was freezing and needed his Jacket back. (Note to Micky/Self: Even when wearing a Jacket, wear a long sleeved shirt underneath.) Micky smiled again, grabbing his jacket and sliding into it, feeling the warmth of his familiar jacket enter his body instantly. He grinned and watched on as Maya finished her battle quickly, watching as she hesitated in celebrating her victory, for fear it was short-lived.
Micky then froze as Amaya gave him a quick hug, stopping and feeling as though he could explode. He grinned, ecstatic, and followed Amaya towards the still Pokéball in the centre of the clearing. "Congratulations, you did great." Micky stated, still smiling, though he had calmed down a lot. "You deserve this Spheal, and I'm sure you'll be a great owner."

[Master Red]

"Thanks Micky, but it would really not have been possible without you or Medea" Maya stated politely and thn picked up the pokéball on the ground. "I really do hope you're right about me being a good owner for it... I'm just worried it might be angry with me for attacking and catching it" She then said in a more mumbling tone, yet still completely audiable and comprehensable, as she sealed the pokéball properly and put it into her bag. After some consideration she decided to return Medea to her pokéball as well, she was very tired after the battle and it would do her good to be inside of the ball for a while at least.

"Now, let's get out of here before we both catch a cold" She said, smiling and looking at Micky. She had started to grow a bit cold again which was completely understandable as her clothes, as well as herself, was soaked in cold water. Her hair had frozen a bit already and it was very uncomfortable along her scalp, she'd probably jump into the ocean as they got out to warm up and then at least switch into that dress she had brought.

[Hotaru987]

The walk out of the caves was a slow, and clearly defeated one. Anyone who may have seen Noriko could tell that things hadn't gone so well for her. It all would have been perfect if the Corsala hadn't come back and that stupid rock wouldn't have fall-

"Hey do you hear something?" Noriko asked turned her head to look behind her. They weren't completely out of the cave yet, and for a while now she had been hearing the shuffling of feet, and the occasional moan. It was a very high pitched moan and sounded muffled, like it was mushing its face into something. After seconds of hearing nothing Noriko shook her head, "Must be my imagination."

"Vulpix." Pixie agreed as she continued walking. Minutes later the same sound was heard again and once again the duo stopped walking. 'Ok, I know there is something behind me." She peered closly into the dark before saying, "Pixie charge up your ember to give us a little light." Pixie did as told and soon the cave lit up. Noriko then saw something she didn't ever think she would be seeing - "Corsweet?"

The small pokemon jumped and quickly ran behind a rock. Noriko looked at Pixie - whom was still struggling with keeping her ember up - with confusion on her face. She knelt down and held out her hand, "Corsweet, you can come out. I wont hurt you I promise." Noriko said soothingly. She continued to gently coax Corsweet to come out and slowly he did. Corsweet wobbled up to Noriko slowly. Noriko smiled, "See I tol-Woah!!" Corsweet suddenly jumped straight into Noriko's face, hitting her with the bottom of it's body.

"Cor! Corsweet!" Corsweet exclaimed happily, while Noriko layed flat on her back with mini Corsweets circling around her head, and swirls for eyes. When she came back to she saw the Corsweet still on her face, and Pixie next by her saying something to Corsweet. "What happened?" She mumbled sitting up, "All I remember is pink..." She looked down at Corsweet who was bouncing all around. Noriko was confused for a second. Why was Corsweet with her and not with Corsola? Could it be simply because she saved it? Even though the reason it happened was completely Noriko's fault - she made a mental note not to menting that to Corsweet.

Corsweet and Pixie were having some type of conversation but Noriko, not being a pokemon, hadn't a clue what they were saying. "Do you want to come with me?" She asked gaining to the two pokemon's attention. "Cor." The small pokemon said a look of determination and fire in it's eyes. Noriko smiled and held out a pokemon, "Well then, welcome to the team."

"Corsweet!!!" Corsweet yelled jumping onto Noriko's face again - in advertatedly using its tackle attack - and once again knocking Noriko out.

"Corsweet?..."

"Vulpix...."

[Naimo]

Regiana could sense that people were beginning to make their way out of the caves - thank goodness for that, now she could stop doing very fourth wall breaking posts that were poorly concealed as a serious RP post - and she returned the still-trapped Lee to his Pokeball. Valena looked annoyed at her owner, and then haughtily darted towards the entrance, where sure enough, she would soon see people reappearing. Regiana was left to chase after her, as well as wonder where Blue and Blaine were; she had expected at least one of them to have followed her, but no, they had abandoned her completely. To put it in a more refined manner, what a pair of idiots they were (a well-educated lady never uses the 'b' word, according to Regiana's principles).

[The Warden]

'Okay' Lyla answered, taking the lead and squinting into the darkness.

Okay, not the best source of light, but there was rampant squeaking up ahead. Following the source she found Myst, having grown bored of watching them and for once decided to do his job. Currently he was messing about with a small cluster of Zubat; he constantly came up and tickled their legs with his smoke, then watched them squeal and twitch uncomfortably. He snickered a little, but then noticed Lyla. This was a tough choice, be nice and get the both of us out of this cave, or stick around and have more fun. As much as he deeply would enjoy the latter, he had to obey the former.

Finding a nice big female, he tickled her feet and caused it to plummet to the ground right in front of Lyla, who stared up at her pokemon. Myst floated down gracefully, snickering the whole way. She gave him the evil eye, but then focused on the screeching Zubat. It looked pretty mad at Myst, zooming in for a quick Leech Life. The ghost showed displeasure in being nibbled on, but not much life was taken, thank god for 1/4 resistances. 'Okay Myst, go with Lick' Lyla ordered.

He was going to go with that anyways, but still accepted her commands. He weaved about the startled bat, before coming from behind and scraping his icky tongue up the little critters back. It froze up a little, either from being grossed out or from paralysis. Sadly it was the former, as it swooped in for another Leech Life on Myst. The draining feeling was still unpleasant, but not very damaging. 'Go with Hypnosis' Lyla commanded.

Myst would question how you can hypnotize something that didn't have eyes, but he let it go. The psychic waves poured from his eyes, zooming past the bat. Lyla growled a little in frustration. That attack always has the worst accuracy. The Zubat repeated its move, much to the chagrin of both. Effectively, the battle repeated to two Licks and two Leech Lifes. Both trainer and pokemon were getting tired of this battle. 'Go for another Hypnosis' Lyla ordered.

She crossed her fingers tightly as the psychic wave zoomed through the air and struck the bat head on; it slumped to the ground asleep. Not attempting to point out how exactly that kind of thing works on the blind, Lyla claimed one of her pokeballs and hurled it at the bat. It whacked it cleanly in the head and captured it. The ball rocked a few times before becomming still. She walked over to the ball and picked it up, dusting it off a little. Holding it close to her chest, she began to emmit a low noise, which began to build until she finally squealed with delight, the sound echoed across the caves. Myst rolled his eyes at her. 'Fine then' she said, catching him in the act and returning him to his ball.

She then returned to grinning at her Zubat, of whom she released immediately. It seemed very affectionate of her, nuzzling up to her face. 'She's so cute, I wonder what I should name her?' she commented.

It was a quick think tank, as she came up with her answer. 'Okay, I've decided to call you Lillian, or Lili for short' Lyla decided.

Lil seemed to like the name, as she spiraled through the air, then nuzzled up to Lyla again.

[Hydra of Ages]

Blaine didn't like to use the word 'Failure' when applied to him.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much he could call his plan aside from 'total and complete abject failure'.

He coughed a little into the sleeve of his coat, his everything now stinking strongly of smoke. He flicked a bit of ash from the corner of his neck, almost sighing as he made his way down the rocky side of the hill. Ilia trotted behind him, looking ever dignified despite her part in the spectacle; Nero followed, though with far less grace and poise. While the little Magby tried his best to look strong, his flame tail flickered, smoked and left a tiny trail of ash behind him.

"Nero, take a break," he said casually as he returned his partner to his pokeball. The fire type looked like he had been about to object, but was sucked in without incident. Ilia gave Blaine a dour sort of look, and he just scowled back at her.

"What? Don't give me that look, I knew it wasn't going to work! I'm just a little disappointed that this island trip's turning out to be a bit lackluster, is all. Stupid field trip," he muttered, walking without really seeing anything. At one point, Illia had to dart near his feet so he didn't accidentally take a step out onto open air and tumble the rest of the way down; he muttered a burnt out apology, turned around and walked in a separate direction.

Eventually, Blaine migrated to the mouth of the cave, where he'd seen his classmates go in in search of rare water pokemon. Princess was around there also, of course, chasing after her ice-covered fox, but Blaine's sour mood was enough for him not to care. He thought it sufficient enough to lean against the rock wall of the island, keeping that neutral expression on his face and hiding his eyes through his glasses. Doing nothing was cool, after all; people who didn't give a crap were always in demand.

"Ow!" Blaine swatted a hand to his ear as he felt Ilia bite his lobe sharply. He rubbed it while looking at her from the corner of his sunglasses, muttering a little. "What the hell, Little Lady?"

Ilia just rolled her eyes at him, wriggled playfully and hopped from her perch on his shoulders to the island to inspect the fellow elemental fox nearby. Blaine walked a couple steps to the left, then to the right, stewing in his misplaced annoyance and frustration for a couple moments before deciding to screw it; it wasn't like there was much else to do on this island. He didn't like it; it was as if even being near a symbol of his home life was making him irritable.

"Ey. Princess. Catch anything?" he asked casually, in what was admittedly not his most inspired conversational topic. Most water types didn't interest him much, so he didn't bother to catch anything, and he wondered if an apparent member of a religious Ice-based house would have a similar thought.

[Master Red]

After some quick backtracking Maya emerged from the cave, one would expect Micky to trail behind her but as Master Red doesn't feel like god-modding his movements one cannot be for certain. She paused slightly as she got out seeing that both Blaine and Regiana were standing right by the entrance, meaning they were either about to go in or waiting for them to come out.

"Hey you two" She chirped happily and then walked on so she didn't block the entrance/exit of the cave and stood just a short distance away from Blaine. She looked a bit silly given that her clothes were soaked and she had frozen bits in her hair, but she didn't care, if they wanted to know about that they could ask although it was kind of obvious that she had fallen in the water.

[Naimo]

"Ah, Blaine," said Regiana with some poise as she approached. "As it happens, yes, I [i]have[/i] made a catch." She took out Lee's Pokeball, and clutched it tightly. "This is my Feebas; I call him Lee. I would let him out, but unless the source of water is enclosed, I wouldn't trust doing so. He could do with some more ... co-ordination." [i]Then again, if he did have any more, I would never have found him.[/i]

She heard Amaya call out to them, and she raised her eyebrow at the sight of the drenched girl. "Hello Amaya. I suppose the obvious question would be, what on earth have you been doing?"

[Master Red]

Amaya smiled sheepishly and scratched the back of her head, blushing slightly from minor embarrassment. "Eh, well... I kind of had a little slip and fell in one of the pools" She said, followed by a uncertain giggle. "It was all worth it though, because if I hadn't fallen in I would probably not have found Leo" She added, holding up the metallic sphere that was Leo's pokéball and looked proud. "It was a close call though and I'd never been able to catch it if I hand't had Micky with me, my pokéball broke but he gave me his" She added the last part as an explanation and then looked behind here, where she may or may not have seen Micky as his presence wasn't certain because Magnet Soldier hadn't made a post to confirm his whereabouts. One would guess he would be there though and if he was Amaya would most likely smile towards him, if not, Amaya would probably wonder where he went and look slightly stupid for looking at nothing but a cave entrance.

((OOC: oh fourth wall breaking... :3))

[fenrir]

"Right..." With that, Cage returned Strider. No reason to keep him out to light the way. "We should probably get going then..." With that he did a quick heel turn and began walking towards the entrance. Whether Lyla kept up or not was none of his concern; their mutual moment of assistance was over. Honestly he wasn't quite sure why he decided to team up with the girl; in retrospect he would have ran into the Staryu regardless of whether he was with her or not.

As he neared the entrance, he spotted Blaine casually leaning against the rock wall; ashen jacket and all. For a moment he wondered what the guy had been up to, but dismissed that thought as soon as it emerged. Cage had stopped at the mouth of the cave at the sight of Regiana and Amaya. With Amaya there that meant Mickey was also nearby. Rarity would take a moment to highlight on the fact that Mickey was nowhere to be found, but that would be god-modding. Instead he would rather join the crowd and also break the fourth wall.

[Naimo]

Regiana's eyebrow just arched higher, but it was a while before she said, "I congratulate you on your catch." She held Lee's Pokeball closer for Amaya to see. "This is Lee, and he is a Feebas. One with no sense of direction, I daresay - so a little like James May, but similar in only that respect."

Valena blinked; [i]Oh good Regigigas, she's breaking the fourth wall again[/i] was her most immediate thought. Fortunately, Naimo was no longer using her position as the omnipresent narrator (restricted to Regiana and co) to do such a terrible act, and Regiana had no recollection whatsoever that she had just been used to break the fourth wall. Nor could she remember seeing Master Red, Rarity and Naimo behind it either.

[Magnet Soldier]

Magnet Soldier, aware he had made most of the Cast's controllers break the Fourth Wall, decided against posting a Post breaking the Fourth wall, and instead focussed on writing about Micky's tales, trials and Tribulations in trying to get Amaya to acknowledge him, while absentmindedly being annoyed that the rest of the Rpers were spelling Micky's name with an E. Oh, Wait. Magnet Soldier has just realised he has, without realising it, broken the fourth wall and disregarded everything within his previous Sentence. And has reminded himself to stop it with the Fourth wall breaking and get on with the Post. *The Sound of a Loud Slap can be heard*

Micky, confused at why a loud voice suddenly echoed through his head, forgot about it within a moment, unaware his whole life was now being controlled by a 14 year old boy from Yorkshire, and was merely a fragment of that Boy's imagination, spawning from the original Pokémon universe created by Satoshi Tajiri, and now owned by the huge Game franchise that would soon exist in his universe, creating a large Paradox.
Anyway, Micky merely shrugged off the shivered he got and turned to look back at the cave, slightly disappointed that he hadn't got the chance to catch a Pokémon. He looked from left to right, making sure nothing was about to attack him, and turned around to exit the cave, also noticing that he hadn't even trained with Sparky or Shifty, sighing again and exiting fulling. He looked over to Amaya, Regianna and Blaine having a Conversation and decided to join in. "You two Ladies both caught some Pokémon? Awesome. Both can also evolve into Powerful Pokémon aswell. What about you Blaine?" He asked, turning towards Blaine, the Guy who seemed almost like a Rival already, despite the fact Micky had the Obvious advantage. He was Musically Talented, so could sing, play all types of Guitar and was Semi-Decent at Drums. All Blaine had was that he was rich and drove a cool car. Micky could drive, he just didn't have enough money to afford a car.

[Hotaru987]

"Ugh..." Noriko groaned finally sitting up and rubbing her head. "What happened...?" It took a while to remember but it all suddenly came back to her. The cave, the rock falling on Corsweet, then said Corsweet following her and then finally the tackle to the head. Noriko felt her forhead and winced at the touch - there was a large red knot there now. "Great..."

"Corsweet."

The young trainer looked down at the small pokemon and only sighed. How could she be mad at him? It's not like he ment to do that. Pixie was off to the side resting, and waiting for her trainer to awaken. Norko noticed they were still in the cave, though not far from the entrance. She could hear people talking, most likely some of the other kids whom entered the cave. She stood and looked back at Corsweet. "You're gonna have to get in the pokeball now ok Riley?"

"Cor?" The small pokemon said confusion clear in it's voice. Noriko only smiled, "It's a little nickname I had chosen to call my Corsweet if I was able to catch one. Do you like it?"

Corsweet smiled and hopped in place yelling, "Cor! Corsweet!" Noriko laughed, "I'm glad." She then took out her pokeball and Corsweet - now named Riley - was sucked inside in a bright red light. "Well then, lets get going Pixie." Pixie finally stood up, stretched and then followed Noriko the rest of the way out of the cave. When then finally did exit she noticed that there was a group of kids; Micky, greaser dude - she still has yet to learn his name -, Ayama, stuck up girl, and shades guy. She headed over, and spoke to Ayama - she was the only person she knew in the group, "Did you manage to capture a Spheal? And um...Why are you wet?"

[Hydra of Ages]

"Feebas, eh?" Blaine said thoughtfully. Feebas were a typically fresh water species related to magicarp. Though rather rare in the saline waters of Cinnabar, nobody ever caught a feebas for the purpose of having a feebas -aside from being frail and only slightly more useful than a more common magicarp, they weren't particularly impressive looking either- but rather for their eventual evolution, the powerful and elegant Milotic. It was, admittedly, a fitting choice for Regiana.

He turned his eyes to Micky without turning his head, so that the musician probably wouldn't notice his redirected attentions.

"Nothing here caught my eye," he said smoothly. "I'm not much for water types anyway."
Blaine didn't like Micky, even if it was like looking into a less talented and more annoying mirror. That smug sense of self-satisfaction that musicians tended to cultivate rubbed him the wrong way. It was as if they purposely tried to build themselves up as a 'bad boy' type to stand out which Blaine thought, while adjusting his shiny black sunglasses and leather coat, was patently ridiculous.

Ilia, meanwhile, curled up and relaxed by the entrance to the cave, relaxing in the sun.

[Master Red]

((OOC: Hotaru, her name is Amaya, called Maya, and also, she gave the jacket back to Micky a couple of posts ago *points at post* >_>))

The happy look on Maya's face would probably have been answer enough to the question about the Spheal and she nodded excitedly. The nodding was very quick and one would almost have to worry that she might get a whiplash injury from the movements. "Yeah, I managed to catch one with some help from Micky" She said, holding up Leo's pokéball in her hand and looking real proud.

She then laughed a bit, embarrassed about her wetness ((OOC: not like that, nasty!)). "I- I kind of slipped and fell into a pool of water" she mumbled, her face growing pinker by the second. "Although, if I hadn't slipped I wouldn't have found Leo so I guess my clumsyness came in handy for once!" she added happily, though to be honest that part was more of her trying to convince herself it was something good about being a cluts.

[Naimo]

It was fair to say that Regiana could feel a slight hidden tension between Blaine and Micky - oh c'mon, Naimo could already tell before Hydra posted - but she kept quiet on that subject. She wanted to ask whether anyone had seen Blue, but Noriko's arrival stopped her from asking that question.

Valena also appeared to be curious; she suddenly made her way over to Noriko, and sat by her feet, her eyes staring up at her. Seeing as they didn't know each other, Regiana also took a step forward and said, "Hello, I believe we have not yet met. I am Regiana Regicalo Regimael Ice, daughter of the Ice Master." [i]Judging by your looks, I'm sure most of that made no sense to you.[/i] She then held out her hand, and it was, overall, quite a sincere gesture that Regiana wanted to know more people.
