She had waited for about 5 minutes. "This is taking too long." She thought. "I might as well go in and look." She went over to the fence right next to the house nad climbed up, then on to the roof and she tried the window. It opened. "That was easy." she thought. She crawled in and looked around. It was a boy's bedroom. "I doubt I'll find anything in here." She thought as the opened the door to a hallway. She tried the door across the hall. A bathroom. She then went down the hall to another room. A guest bedroom. She went over to the closet and opened it. She stumbled back in surprise. A whole closet filled with weapons. Guns, swords, and knives of all types and sizes.

"I can't, not empty handed. There's no way I'm going to let my brother out on these streets." She said quietly. More to herself since the Vampire was so far ahead now. Well, she had made it this far, she couldn't turn back now. She made it to the house and didn't hear anything from inside. "I should enter through the back." she thought. She went through she neighbors backyard again, hopped the fence, and went around the side of the fence and the house to the door. She waited and listened and after a few moments she heard whimpering. She looked up and saw a window upstairs. "I bet I can get in through there. But what am I going to do about whatever is crying inside." She decided to wait it out.

Andy rushed into her apartment and collapsed, leaning on the door. She had never ran for that long and was exausted. Her brother walked into the room, hearing the door slammed shut. "So, did you get anything good?" he asked. "No, unless being chased by a Slayer counts." Her brother frowned and helped her to the couch. "You know you have to go back. We desperately need anything good from that house. If you can't handle it, I will." Andy thought for a minute. She knew she had to do it. There's no way she was going to let that guy get her brother. "Okay, I'll go back out in about 20 minutes. Maybe he lost my trail." Her brother went back in his room and she waited. This time, as she was leaving, she remembered to grab her hat and cover her ears. She slowly decended to the ground floor and carefully looked out the door before exiting. She didn't see him, but she had a bad feeling he would be there. "I have to do this." she mumbled to herself as she opened the door and walked in the direction of the house.

She quickly jumped off the fence and ran through the backyards she had come through. This was not turning out to be the easy job she had thought it would be. She had cleared the last fence and had reached the street before she turned around to check if he was still following her. Sure enough, he climbed over and walked toward her, his weapon ready to strike. She backed up slowly and tried to think of a way out. Her brother was right. Her luck was running out. She kept glancing back and forth, looking for any way out. She was now past the middle of the street. "I have to run now if I'm going to get out of this." she thought. She reached the sidewalk and sprinted along it, hoping to outrun him. She barely made it by ducking out of the way of his katana. She ran to the street the house was on and down it, hoping to lose him by turning down several streets and alleys.

Andy had heard the bullets from about half a mile away. she knew it came from the neighborhood just past her apartment. Her brother came in the room and said "Well, I've got a job for you. There are some hybrids taking out some slayers in the neighborhood down the street. You get to do the clean-up. Get out there and raid the house. Make sure you steal the stuff before anyone catches you. Your narrow escapes aren't going to cut it for much longer. Good Luck." He went back in his room, leaving her to debate for a few seconds. It seemed easy so she put on her coat and left. As she approached the house, she saw an angel across the street. She watched him carefully from a distance, not wanting to be noticed. She reached up to scratch her head and noticed she forgot a hat. She cursed under her breath and walked past the street until she was out of sight. Then, she jumped the fence of the first houses backyard and did the same to the other houses until she reached the house next door's backyard. She was thankful the next door neighbors weren't home as she peered over the fence into the backyard of the house she would be stealing from, and waited.

The boat was only a short distance from the port when they found Alex and Rorohiko. They had split up, one searching one side, the other searching the other side. After about twenty minutes of searching, Andy finally found Alex on one of the lower decks, getting some food. [COLOR=DarkRed]"We'll be docking soon."[/COLOR] she said. She wanted to start some conversation and see what else Alex was hiding. She could tell he was almost constantly trying to push something out of his mind while around Rorohiko. [COLOR=Green]"Thanks."[/COLOR] he replied. [COLOR=Green]"I decided it would be best to get something to eat before getting off. I don't want to take up time finding the others because I have to stop and eat."[/COLOR] They went over to a table so he could set his stuff down and eat. [COLOR=DarkRed]"So what do you thing that Pokemon in the sky was? It was unlike anything I've ever seen."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"Yeah. I'm not quite sure what it was either."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Are you ready to be on land again?"[/COLOR] Andy asked, holding back a smirk. She wondered if he believed like Team Magma did about land and if he hated the sea like they did. [COLOR=Green]"Yeah. It will be great to finally be on land again. I don't want to be thrown into the ocean again. That wasn't one of my fondest moments."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"I know what you mean."[/COLOR] For a while they stopped talking. Alex finished eating before they talked again. Andy could tell he was thinking about something important. She wanted to ask what he was thinking about, but instead she asked him something else. [COLOR=DarkRed]"So why are you so mysterious? It seems everything about your past is a secret."[/COLOR] He looked at her for a few moments before answering. [COLOR=Green]"It's just not something I like to talk about."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Is it that bad?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"You have no idea."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"You can tell me if you want."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"I don't like talking about it."[/COLOR] Andy backed off. She didn't want to make him mad. [COLOR=DarkRed]"We should probably go see if Saio has found Rorohiko yet."[/COLOR] Andy said. Alex nodded and they both stood up and went up to the deck.

Andy slept until around midnight before she woke. No one had disturbered her. In one way it was good. The slept felt good. But she was also a little offended. Did no one care she was asleep? She got up and walked around the boat. Everyone was sleeping. "This is a great time to let Articuno out to stretch her wings." She thought. She silently released her and motioned for her to go off for a while. Andy made herself a pallet and layed down, watching the stars. It was a very clear night. It was a little eerie. She watched Articuno flying in front of the moon and suddenly thought of her parents. Tears began to fall down her face. She wished they had been able to see her off on this journey. She wished they had been able to be there when she needed them. Soon she drifted back to sleep. She awoke with a start. She looked around and saw a few people up, sitting in chairs and such, then shivered. Something had scared her. She looked around for Articuno and saw her. That was a huge relief. Articuno was sitting over against the side of the boat looking at something in the water. Andy went over and recalled Articuno and sat at one of the tables. She watched the sea for a while before getting bored. She looked over at the other side and saw land. She was relieved to see it again. As she was watching as they got closer Saio came and sat down. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Hey."[/COLOR] he said. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Hey. Did you sleep well?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"It wasn't the best, but it was okay. What about you?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Pretty much the same way."[/COLOR] Saio's pikachu jumped up on the table and went over to Andy. It sniffed her a few times before curling up and going to sleep. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"I think Pikachu likes you."[/COLOR] Saio said. Andy began stroking Pikachu on his back. [COLOR=DarkRed]"I think he does, too. This is the first Pikachu I've ever seen in person. He's adorable."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"He's powerful, too."[/COLOR] Saio bragged. Andy looked back to the land and was surprised to find they were almost there. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Looks like were almost there."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Yeah."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"We should make sure the others are awake."[/COLOR] Andy said as they rose and went to find the others.

After the confession Andy was at a loss of words. It was strange to be near someone who might have been involved with her parent's murder. Of course there was nothing to do about it. She felt she knew her didn't kill her parents. Also it didn't seem like it was his fault that he was even a part of Team Magma. Still, she would have to keep an eye on him. All these legendary Pokemon around are bound to draw the groups attention. Then which side will he pick. His Groudon is a force to be reckoned with, and if his whole team showed up they would be in trouble. They got back to the ship and found that the sailors had made sandwiches and soup for all the passengers. The ships weren't going to sail for a few hours and it was a good way to keep the passengers occupied. Rorohiko, Saio, Alex, and Andy each got a sandwich and a bowl of soup and sat on the deck on the least crowded boat. They all sat on different sides of the boat, like they were avoiding each other. Andy ate the soup and gave her sandwich to Articuno. [COLOR=DarkRed]"You were great today Articuno. You helped alot of people."[/COLOR] Andy said to her. Articuno cooed with pleasure and fley around the boat a few times, before landing next to Andy. Andy recalled her in her Pokeball and sat down with her back against the railing and drifted to sleep.

Andy kept glancing at Alex. He looked like he was deep in thought. She wanted to know so many things. She wanted to know who killed her parents, why Alex would be entangled in a group like Team Magma, and even if his Pikachu was okay, though it was a small concern compared to the rest. She walked over to him and asked, "Is everything okay? You seem..." then she hesitated. "Everything's fine." he snapped back. Andy bit her lip and turned away. "He doesn't have to be so mean." she thought. "I was only trying to help." After a few seconds Alex relized what he had done. He walked around her and lifted her head. She was trying to hold back tears but they still rolled down her face. "I'm sorry." he said. "I didn't mean to snap like that. It's just been a weird day. I wasn't barganing for this much action. I almost got killed. I am just a little stressed." Andy nodded and he hugged her. "Are you really part of Team Magma?" she wispered.

As they left the ship, Andy became sad for all the people. There was so much damage done. They decided to split up and help the sailors look for people. Andy and Saio went with some of them and Rorohiko and Alex went with the others. Andy released Articuno and flew up into the sky to help search from above. They found a few people, trapped under parts of their houses. They weren't hurt to badly, though. Most of them had only suffered from a broken limb or rib. They headed back to the docks and saw some sailor yelling at Rorohiko. [COLOR=Purple]"You!"[/COLOR] he shouted, pointing at Rorohiko. [COLOR=Purple]"This is all your fault!"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]"My fault?"[/COLOR] Rorohiko replied, in a shocked tone. [COLOR=Purple]"Yes, your f#^*ing fault! I know who you are! This happened because of you! You and your f&%$ing Absol!"[/COLOR] He yelled[COLOR=Blue]."Calm down. [/COLOR]"Rorohiko told the man. [COLOR=Purple]"Calm down? I had family here, you bastard! Don't tell me to calm down!"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"The man lost his family and he's blaming it on Rorohiko."[/COLOR] Andy though to herself. [COLOR=Blue]"Look, don't do anything rash. Just calm down."[/COLOR] Rorohiko said. [COLOR=Purple]"F%^k you!"[/COLOR] the man shouted. He charged Rorohiko. Andy wanted to run down and stop him but she knew it wouldn't help, and she couldn't fight a muscular sailor like him anyway. Then Andy saw Rorohiko slammed him into the ground. The man didn't give up, though. He got to his feet, holding a piece of debris in his hand as a weapon. He charged Rorohiko again, with the same result. [COLOR=Blue]"I don't need this,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko said as the man picked himself up and came at Rorohiko again. [COLOR=Blue]"Ekratrel, take care of this."[/COLOR] The man suddenly found himself unable to move. Ekratrel was restraining him with her psychic abilities. [COLOR=Blue]"I don't want to fight,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko told the man. [COLOR=Blue]"If you want to hate me, that's your choice, but don't lose control of yourself."[/COLOR] He stepped back, and had Ekratrel free the man. [COLOR=Blue]"Now,"[/COLOR] he said, [COLOR=Blue]"if you're done with your irrational anger, we should get these people to the ship."[/COLOR] The man backed off and sat on the boat, continuously glancing evil looks in Rorohiko's direction. Andy and Saio ran over towards them. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Wow!"[/COLOR] Saio said. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"I didn't think you could fight like that."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Me neither."[/COLOR] Andy said. He just nodded and went over to help a sailor with an injured man. [COLOR=Green]"That was nothing. That sailor was weak."[/COLOR] Alex said. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Are you saying you could have stopped him?"[/COLOR] Andy inquired. [COLOR=Green]"Of course I could have. I was about to step in and help him, but he had it under control."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Okay mister macho. If your so strong then you should be helping people onto the boat."[/COLOR] They all walked over to help people on the boat. When they finished up, Andy relized she was very hungry. [COLOR=DarkRed]"What are we going to eat? All this work has made me hungry."[/COLOR]

As the boat slowly approached Rodscale, Andy sat down in one of the seats, Articuno right next to her. [COLOR=DarkRed]"I wonder if everyone's okay?"[/COLOR] Andy murmured to Articuno. [COLOR=DarkRed]"I hope everyone made it."[/COLOR] Articuno cooed softly, enjoying Andy stroking her soft feathers. [COLOR=Green]"I wonder how long this kid is going to stay knocked out?"[/COLOR] Alex said. He released his Pikachu right next to the other one and they looked at each other. A few minutes later they were running around the boat chasing each other and rolling around. The sailors began glancing at them and shaking their heads. Alex sat down next to Andy. [COLOR=Green]"What stiffs. Can't they just relax and have a good time?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"After what happened I'm sure their just nervous. Aren't you a little worried about what happened."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"Well yeah, but there's always time for a little amusement, isn't there?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Maybe you should call your Pikachu back anyway. Besides, they keep watching us. It makes me nervous."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"Oh all right."[/COLOR] Alex calls Pikachu back in his ball just before he pounced on the other one. [COLOR=Green]"You have to call Articuno back, now."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Okay. They were watching her anyway."[/COLOR] Andy called Articuno back. [COLOR=Blue]"We're almost there. Get your stuff ready."[/COLOR] Rorohiko called from the front of the boat. "Your taking the kid." Andy told Alex. [COLOR=Green]"What? You can't dump the kid on me." [/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"We should wake him up, then."[/COLOR] Andy calls Articuno back out. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Wake him up Articuno."[/COLOR] She lightly sprays him with icy water and he immediately awakens. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"What are you doing to me?"[/COLOR] He stands up, soaking wet, and gives them a cold stare. Alex starts laughing as Andy recalls Articuno again. The kid grabs his Pikachu and starts to dry his shirt off some. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Sorry to wake you like that. By the way, my name is Andy."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"The name's Saio. How long was I out for?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"A few hours atleast. You missed alot. Oh, my name is Alex."[/COLOR] Saio nodded and turned to Andy. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"What happened?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"The main thing is that Rodscale has been destroyed and we need to find our friends."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]"Hey, are you guys comming?"[/COLOR] Rorohiko said. [COLOR=Blue]"We're here."[/COLOR]

Andy sighed and rolled her eyes but went through her bag. She was glad she grabbed it before she was thrown overboard. After a minute or so she came across it. It was soaked and had began to smudge a little. She looked over it very carefully and frowned. [COLOR=DarkRed]"I don't think it's marked on my map. It is a couple of years old, though."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"Oh great."[/COLOR] Alex groaned. [COLOR=Green]"We're lost."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]"May I see the map for a minute?"[/COLOR] Rorohiko asked her politely. Andy gave him the map and he studied it for a little while. [COLOR=Blue]"We must be somewhere in between Windsand Village and Rodscale Village. We should just head Northwest from here and we should end up close to Rodscale."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"So were basically traveling blind?"[/COLOR] Alex whined. [COLOR=Blue]"Yes, we are."[/COLOR] Rorohiko calmly said, handing Andy the map back. [COLOR=DarkRed]"What about our Poke`gear? Didn't Proffesor Wyatt say they also had a map?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"That's right!"[/COLOR] Alex replied with a grin. Andy pulled it out and clicked on the map icon. A holographic image of the whole region came up. Andy singled out the Windsand/Rodscale area and found many islands that weren't on her old map. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Now which island are we on?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"You have a bird. Maybe you should fly up and check."[/COLOR] Alex said sarcastically. [COLOR=DarkRed]"That's the smartest thing you've said all day, Alex."[/COLOR] Andy replied. She got on Articuno's back and they took off up into the air. [COLOR=DarkRed]"It's beautiful up here isn't it?"[/COLOR] Andy asked Articuno. She cawwed as they went higher. After a few moments she determined which island she believed they were on. It was the largest unnamed one, about 7 miles long, 3 miles wide. She saw many other little islands and plotted a course for them on Articuno's descent. [COLOR=Green]"So, where are we."[/COLOR] Alex questioned her. [COLOR=DarkRed]"We're right here on this island. We still have another few miles to go before we hit the coast. Then we need to get from one island to the next. Then finally we will reach Rodscale."[/COLOR] Rorohiko looked over it and smiled. [COLOR=Blue]"At least I have one person I can count on to do a little of the work."[/COLOR] Alex scowled at the comment, but was glad that they knew where they were. He didn't like the sound of walking that far either. [COLOR=Blue]"We'd better get going. It will be dark soon."[/COLOR] Rorohiko said.

All of the sudden the sky began to get darker. Andy looked up and as she heard the sailors yelling, she hastily jumped up and ran to the other side of the boat to see what was going on. As she turned around the corner she saw it. It was one of the most horrible sights she had ever seen. [COLOR=DarkRed]"What in the world....."[/COLOR] As she said that she felt something hit the boat and stumbled back, flipping over the railing and plunging into the dark, freezing water. She began sinking deeper until she regained conciousness from the shock and broke the surface of the water. She gulpped a quick breath before a wave pulled her under the water again. In the commotion, she didn't see the boat in the distance so she swam to the closest island. She began and then realised she didn't know where Articuno was. She tried calling but every time she was met with a wave, pulling her farther away from the island. "I need to get to that island. If I can get there, I can find Articuno. There is no way I am going to die out here in this water." she thought to herself. She finally made it, finding Alex and Rorohiko. They helped her out of the water and Rorohiko asked her [COLOR=Blue]"Are you all right?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"I'm fine. Where's Articuno?"[/COLOR] She came flying down gently at the sound of her name. [COLOR=Green]"Well, that answers that question."[/COLOR] Alex remarked. [COLOR=Green]"I hope everyone else is all right."[/COLOR] Andy gave Articuno a big hug and recalled her to her pokeball, not wanting another event like that. [COLOR=Blue]"If they're still on the boat , the're probably fine."[/COLOR] Rorohiko said. [COLOR=Blue]"If they were swept overboard, who knows? Nothing we can do about it either way. I would not recommend going back out there.We should make our way to Rodscale. Any survivors are likely to head in that direction, too, so if the others are still alive, we'll probably find them."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Makes sense to me."[/COLOR] Andy commented. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Man, what hit us?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]"No idea,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko told her. [COLOR=Blue]"The sailors were shouting the name 'Kageryn', probably refering to that dragon thing. Unfortunatly, I've never heard of Kageryn before. That name familiar to either of you?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Green]"I've heard the name,"[/COLOR] Alex said, [COLOR=Green]"but I don't know much. There's some old legends about Kageryn, but that's all I know. No real information."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]"Well, I'll just need to ask someone else then,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko replied. [COLOR=Blue]"Can't do it now, though."[/COLOR] He looked back out at the boat, which was still moving, continuing to Rodscale. [COLOR=Blue]"Hopefully my bag's still on the boat. I secured it pretty tightly, just in case. Let's get moving. We should be able to reach Rodscale quickly, and then we can check out the boat. Let's go."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Wait."[/COLOR] Andy said. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Who's that?"[/COLOR] She walked over to a guy who was lying face down in the sand with a Pikachu next to him. [COLOR=Blue]"I don't know,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko replied. [COLOR=Blue]"Alex?"[/COLOR] Alex shook his head. [COLOR=Green]"I don't recognize him. Is he all right?"[/COLOR] Rorohika walked over to him, watching the Pikachu very carefully. He inspected the kid and finally commented, [COLOR=Blue]"He's alive. Unconcious, but alive. The Pikachu is probably his."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"What should we do with him?"[/COLOR] Andy asked. [COLOR=Blue]"Well, we can't leave him here."[/COLOR] Rorohiko grabbed a Pokeball and released Absol. With Alex's help, he lifted the uncoucious boy onto Absol's back. [COLOR=Blue]"Make sure he doesn't fall off,"[/COLOR] Rorohiko instructed Absol. The group started towards Rodscale, with the unconcious boy's Pikachu following close behind. Andy was soon bored of walking in silence and trailed back to the Pikachu. At least she might be able to play with the Pikachu a little. He looked up at her as she walked by him and got a playful look in his eye. He began to run around her and tried to trip her. She giggled at his feats but when she noticed Alex wasn't up with Rorohiko she stopped. Then she spun around and found him right behind her. She gasped as he began laughing. It wasn't very often she got tricked like that and started blushing. Rorohiko turned around. [COLOR=Blue]"What are you two doing back there."[/COLOR] Alex stopped laughing long enough to tell him what he did and he chuckled a little, too. Andy began to grow angry at them laughing at her. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Okay, it was funny for a few seconds but shouldn't we get going now?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed] I've been ok. You can sit back down. I don't want you to wake up your Typhlosion. Your Pokemon look really healthy." "Thanks." They both sat down and Articuno and Suicune walked off. "So how have you been?" "I can't complain. Life has been pretty good, especially since I met Suicune." "I heard about what happened to your parents. I'm really sorry." TJ said. "It's not to bad. Atleast I have Articuno." "Sorry to have brought it up if it's a sensative topic." "It's not that bad. I'm angry but I've decided I'm going to devote my life to finding who killed them." "That' positive...I guess. What do you plan to do when you find them?" "I haven't gotten that far yet." [U]Suicune and Articuno[/U][/COLOR] They walked to the other side of the boat and stared into the ocean for a few minutes. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"So, do you like your new owner?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy]"Yeah. I didn't know her father very well, though. He only got me a few months before he was murdered."[/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Are you attached to this girl."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy]"Yes. I almost feel responsible. If I had been there I might have been able to save them."[/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"You know there's nothing you could have done. It may not seem like it now but it will turn out for the better I'm sure."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy]"I guess your right. If I had been there I might have been stolen, too."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed][U]TJ and Andy[/U] "So you have no plan when you find whoever did this?" "I'll think of one before I find them." "I hope you think of one before you meet up with them." Andy looked out into the water and sighed. "I'm sorry if I seemed a little harsh. I just don't want you to be the next murder victim." "I know. It is a little reckless." "A little reckless? It's risking your life." "Yeah. I know. I just want my revenge." "I know. It must suck to have lost your parents." "Yeah. I still have Articuno, though. She helps alot. I don't feel alone anymore." Andy looked around the boat and saw Articuno and Suicune on the other side. "They look like their getting along pretty well." TJ commented. "I hope so. Articuno's never had anyone but me. A friend that's more like her must be nice."[/COLOR] [U][COLOR=DarkRed]Suicune and Articuno[/COLOR][/U] [COLOR=Navy]"I guess we should head back soon."[/COLOR] Articuno looked back to Andy. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"If you want. We won't hit land for a while, though." [/COLOR] [COLOR=Navy]"It's good to talk to another Pokemon. This is the first time I've talked to another Pokemon. I can't talk to Andy. We can't communicate telepathically but we seem to understand each other anyway."[/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"I guess I'm lucky. TJ and I communicate telepathically."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed][U]Day 1[/U] Andy and Articuno rushed out of Proffesor Wyatt's mansion with the others and took the easy route, got on Articuno's back and flew. It was very leisurely, though. They were watching the boat the whole time, making sure it wouldn't leave without all of them on board. They were lucky. Everyone made it on just in time. Andy was glad to be on a boat again. She hadn't been on one since she was 8, before her parents were murdered. She could tell Articuno was excited too. "So, are you ready to start our adventure?" Articuno nodded. "I wonder what the pokedex says about you? Let's find out." Andy dug through her bag, finally finding it at the very bottom of the bag. She opened it and looked over it. It was very impressive. It had everything anyone would ever need. "This will be so useful." She pointed it at Articuno and the holographic image of her appeared. Then suddenly a mechanicel voice began. [I]-Articuno: An Ice/Flying type Pokemon. One of the legendary bird Pokemon, It's translucent wings are said to be made of ice. As it flys through the sky, it cools the air, causing snow to fall. It is also said to appear to doomed people, lost in icy mountains.[/I] "Well, that was impressive."Articuno tossed her head in a 'that's so overrated' tone and Andy just smiled. "I think it was quite acurate." Articuno gave Andy a 'yeah right' look. It was a good hologram of you anyway. Articuno tossed her head. "I'm just saying...ok. I'll stop. I think you liked it anyway." Andy looked around the boat and found Reza talking with Rain, and everyone else sitting alone. She heard alot about Alexander. How nice and caring he was. And about Richard being picked on by the other fishermen, although he takes care of them easily. All the others, Sakura, Jo, TJ, and Yubi, she had known but not spoken to since her parents were killed. "I guess I might as well make frinds or else this journey is going to be boring. The only question is who to talk to first." She thought. "OK Articuno, you can pick. Who do I talk to first?" she asked. Articuno looked at all of them very carefully. She was mostly looking at the Pokemon, though. She wanted a friend for this journey, too. Finally she picked out TJ. He had a Suicune, which Articuno knew, since they were both ice types, that they would get along. Andy was nervous and had her second thoughts racing like they always did. She finally got the bad thoughts out of her head and went over. "Hi TJ, its been a long time."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Day 1 "Articuno! What are you doing?" Andy wearily said, turning over in her bed. She looked at the clock. It said nine o clock. Andy sat up and thought for a minute. "Where am I supposed to be? I know I'm supposed to be somewhere." After a few minutes of thought it hit her. "The Oak tree!!!" she gasped. She quickly fought with the covers and eventually got untangled and rushed into her closet where she got her normal everyday clothes, tan shorts (knee length), a black shirt, her grey jacket, and her tennis shoes on. She also grabbed her backpack and threw in a couple of blankets and some other necessities. "Hey Articuno. Go down in the kitchen and grab us some food to bring along. Anything we have that's quick to fix." Andy brushed her hair as Articuno rushed downstairs and grabbed the money she had saved up and the Pokeballs she had bought, along with a potion just in case. As she ran downstairs she put the foods Articuno had found in her bag and they both rushed out. Alright Articuno, lets fly since we're late. Andy got on her back and they took off. They arrived at the tree and noticed 7 of her old friends and a new person. She got off Articuno's back and sat under the tree. It was weird to see everyone again. She was nervous they wouldn't like her. It had been quite a few years. Articuno sat down next to her and Andy began to stroke her. "I'm nervous." she wispered to Articuno. Articuno nodded wisely. That was the best thing about her. She was always so understanding.[/COLOR]

ooc: Is it too late for me to join? Name: Andrea (Andy) Aguri Age: 15 Gender: female Appearance: about 5''5', 115lbs, red hair to a little below her shoulders, blue/grey eyes, a tan on her arms and legs, tan shorts (knee length), a black shirt, and a grey jacket when it's cool or raining. She will not wear shoes unless she has to. Personality: Andy is very sweet, caring, and fun to be around. She doesn't like to be the center of attention. She's very quiet most of the time. She is a tomboy and enjoys hanging out with guys more than girls. (she doesn't like girls who complain or are sissy's) She loves being around Pokemon. Her favorite is Vulpix. Bio: Andy lost her parents when she was 8. They were traveling to Kanto and were murdered. The only thing she has left to remember them by is her father's legendary pokemon (he left him at the house this time) Articuno. She had no other family, but instead of making her leave, the guy who owned the house before decided to pay for the house until Andy was old enough to leave. She trains Articuno every day and is glad that her father left her at home instead of taking her with him. Andy has sworn to find who murdered her father and has a strong feeling it was either Team Aqua or Team Magma. When she turned 12 she was by the ocean with Articuno and she noticed some men with weird clothes watching Articuno. She quickly called Articuno into her pokeball and walked over to the men. ... "Can I help you with something?" she asked politely. "Yeah." one of them said. "Where did you get that Articuno?" "Why do you care?" she replied. "Cause its not normal for a little girl to be carrying a legendary pokemon." They started to surround her. "I suggest you leave or else." she said with a smirk. They didn't buy it and grabbed her. She released Articuno and told her to attack. Articuno used her ice beam and froze the men but didn't hit Andy at all. Andy had taught Articuno to focus her ice on only certain things and not hit anything else. She noticed the uniform was Team Magma's and figured they were the ones who killed her parents. Starting Pokemon: Articuno Eventual Party: Articuno (F) Ninetales (F) Espeon (M) Arcanine (M)

Andy woke up and found herself visible again. she sighed in relief and ate before going over to Jake's. She went to his door and knocked and his dad answered. He was drunk and took a swing at Andy, but she ducked by and ran upstairs. She was used to this. Jake's dad was often drunk. She knocked at his door before walking in to find him asleep. "Wake up." she whispered in his ear. "We have plans today, remember?" He slowly woke up and sat in bed for a few minutes. "Morning." he mumbled. He got up and walked to his closet to put his clothes on. He always sleeps in some shorts, knowing Andy might wake him up in the morning. He came out and they went downstairs and headed for the door. Jake's dad called him into the other room and told him he needed to be back before it got too late like last night and they left. "It's a beautiful day isn't it?" Andy asked him. "Yeah. It's nice out." "What's wrong Jake?" "Nothing." "I know when something's wrong. Now what is it?" "I don't know. I just don't feel right." "Does it have something to do with the fact I turned invisible?" "Yeah. Sorta." "I feel weird, too. But I'm normal today. Lets be glad for that." "Yeah"

Andy and Jake were walking in the forest just outside the city. It was around nine o clock. The sky was almost clear except for a little cloud in the middle of the sky. "This place gets a little spooky at night." Andy wispered to Jake. "Yeah, but it's ok. I can always protect you." Andy snickered at that comment, knowing he wouldn't be to much help against a wild animal. "Hey, what was that for?" "Nothing." They continued on in silence for a while. They would often walk in silence, thinking, and afterwards share their thoughts. The few little clouds began to rapidly disappear. Jake looked over at Andy and said "It's a nice night, isn't it?" but stood in horror to find she was gone. Then a voice out of mid air answered, "Yeah." "Andy, Where are you?" he yelled franticallly, glancing around. "I'm right here." she answered from beside him as she grabbed his arm. He spun around but couldn't see her. "I can't see you." "What?" she exlaimed. He led her to the creek and when she looked in there was no reflection. "I'm invisible!" "Yeah, you are. What are we going to do now?" "Maybe it will go away?" "I hope so." They turn around and head back to their neighborhood. Jake is holding Andy's hand to know where she is, though, so it won't be so awkward. They reach her house and she sneaks in. "I'll see you tomorrow." Andy wispers. "I hope I'll see you tomorrow." Jake says as she enters her house and goes up to her room. She gets ready for bed. Jake goes next door to his house and sneaks up to his room. He lays on his bed and thinks about the situation and some other things until he drifts off to sleep.

Andrea:"Thanks for saving us. The door closed on us before we had time to react." Nikki:"No problem." Jake:"Vito, this is your base isn't it? Don't you know what's going on around here?" Vito:"I wish I did Jake, but I'm as clueless as the rest of you." Andrea:"Let's finish getting the food gathered up and go back to the room. Where's Kyle and Mamimi?" Nikki:"Oh, don't worry, their...Oh No!" Andrea:"Their back in the room alone aren't they?" Nikki nods her head. Andrea:"We'd better hurry back then."

Andrea:"I've been wondering all night. Who gave them to us? Tomiko:"And why to us?" Andrea:"I guess we have to wait until midnight.
