~Getting to Know You~
"Tell us again! Tell us again!" I felt a smile crawl on my face as the young cyndaquil tugged my paw. His soft red eyes sparkled as he dragged me over to a blue carpet with a puff. I sat in the middle of the childish room. His tiny paws slipped from my grasp and I noticed he quickly ran off to fetch the others. Children...such a unique joy.
I looked around the daycare. Tiny colored paw prints decorated the simple yellow room I sat in. A chansey was painted on the door. Many paintings sat on the wall, most were self portraits or pictures of themselves with badges and ribbons. These kids were so imaginative, they had so many different dreams and personalities, it was amazing to watch them. I just knew that these kids would one day be old enough to join exploration teams...or maybe start one of their own...or hell even do something different.
"Sam's telling his stories again! He's telling them again!" Needless to say, the kids enjoy a good story, especially the one about Temporal Tower. My eyes scanned the room and before me sat five young pokemon. From left to right, a young cyndaquil, eevee, oshawott, bulbasuar and growlithe sat in front of me. Their eyes sparkled in front of me as they waited patiently for me to say something.
"Okay before I begin, let me see if I got this right. So starting from the cyndaquil and ending with the growlithe I got... Chasmin, Piper, River, Quindavius, and Nixon..." Dang what complicated names...good thing I'm only watching them for a few hours.
"Okay...which story-" The calm silence was broken by that single question. The shouts and pleas rang through my ears as well as the daycare's halls.
"Tell us the one where you saved time!" The growlithe Nixon shouted, flames escaping his mouth in his excited jumping. Defiantly a great story.
"Or your first mission!" River shouted, paw hanging high in the air.
"Tell us about the time you almost drowned!" Quindavius screeched. Maybe I was a bit too open with these kids. I felt myself nervously laugh as I backed up to the corner of the room. I looked at the five pokemon, all wanting to hear a story. I felt my paw run down my face as I sighed.
"Tell us the one where you got married!" The eevee Piper exclaimed, her paws sliding down the rug with a heartfelt sigh. She was going to be a true romantic that was for sure. But regardless of the matter, I felt my face burn with red. I quickly took a deep breathe, feeling my hands tremble as I sighed to release the anxiety behind the question.
I scanned all of them, eyes full of excitement, thats when I noticed it...that cyndaquil sitting quietly, hand raised.
"What story do you want to hear?" I asked, as the rest of the kids quickly stopped yelling, watching the young cyndaquil with intrigued eyes. The cyndaquil looked at me, then back at his friends a slight smile on his face. I felt myself nervously cringe, what was this kid thinking? He quickly turned to me, his eyes sparkling as he opened his mouth really wide.
"All of them!" I felt my air leave me...of course that would be his answer. But I felt calm as I leaned against the wall. The young pokemon leaned in, waiting to see what my answer would be. I felt myself sigh, can't say no to children...especially when the egg they came from wasn't centered around parents...I sympathized and hoped that they would get adopted.
"Okay...so...I can tell you them all...except yours Piper...haven't done that yet." The eevee pouted, a frown spreading across her face. I instantly felt bad, but its not really my fault I haven't gotten married...I just haven't done it.
"But...maybe one day...I will have that story for you..." Her eyes quickly lit up again.
"Really!?" I nodded as she slipped into my lap listening to the story.
"Okay then...go on with your other stories." She said with a slight yawn, resting her head on my thigh. I felt myself smile.
"Alright...so...our story begins after a stormy night...I was standing outside a guild and-"
"Is this going to be long? I like long stories!" Nixon cried out randomly, his tail wagging as he put his face on his paws and looked up at me. The others immediately 'shhhd' him and he glanced up at me.
"Patience Nixon... I'm getting there." I said with a slight eye roll. He smiled, nodding his head for a moment before laying on the carpet. And without any interruptions, I told the story for a long time. I could see it was putting most of the children to sleep, but that makes it easier to watch them.
I smiled as they found peace in their dreams...although I was a bit sad to find them bored with my story. They must have been tired from their previous playing...and it made me smile to know they were happy. I looked at all their faces, startled when I was met with blue eyes. Everyone except the Growlithe was asleep.
"And then we found ourselves in a fight to save the world..." His eyes sparkled in fascination and his tail wagged in excitement. I noticed how intrigued he was but I continued to whisper, not wanting to disturb the others' sleep.
"Then...she disappeared..." At this point the Growlithe's eyes began to water and my heavy tired eyes quickly shot open. He had better not...Arceus, please don't let him cry.
"But then...by some miracle... she came back and then-" The growlithe quickly leapt up in joy.
"Woohoo! She came back! She came-" The cyndaquil quickly perked his head, his teeth grinding in anger.
"Shut up Nixon!" The cyndaquil shouted, before he curled up tighter beside me and sighed, lulling himself back to sleep.
"Whatever Chasmin..." The Growlithe growled for a moment before sighing. He put on a happy grin regardless and curled up next to the cyndaquil muttering to himself.
"She came back...that must mean she loves him...that must mean they're...meant...to...be." He whispered, falling asleep with a slight snore. The cyndaquil, who had yelled at him a moment ago sighed and immediately left my side to snuggle with his friend.
"Like us...best friends for life. Goodnight buddy..." I smiled at the sight, it was always nice to have a best friend like that. I leaned my head back in a comfortable position against the wall.
I looked to my right, noticing River the oshawott and Quindavius the bulbasuar sleeping, the mudkip was laying in front of me belly up, drool falling from his mouth and onto the floor forming a small pool of saliva. The bulbasuar, Q for short, was curled up next to me, a slight whistle coming from his mouth.
"Ah...finally...silence..." I said, my heavy eyes slipping close. I could feel myself falling asleep, but as long as the kids are happy, there's nothing to fear.
"Somehow I knew I would find you snoozing here..." I smirked, walking into the Chansey daycare. I could feel my face burning as I saw the sleeping children on Sam. The smiles of the adorable children as they slept peacefully beside Sam. A smile appeared on my face as I walked closer to them. The children slowly opened their eyes, quickly leaping up and stretching before darting away as they began playing.
I walked over to Sam, sitting next to him and I rested my head on his shoulder. I felt my hand brush up against him, gently placing my hand on top of his.
"Wake up sleepy head...wake up and spend the day with me." I whispered to his ear, gently kissing his cheek. I pulled away, a small smile on my face. He's too cute sleeping like that..so peaceful...like he's dreaming. The room that was once bursting with noise and laughter was now quiet.
"WWHHHHEEEEWWW!" Many voices burst out, catching my attention quickly. I felt my heart race, beating rapidly as I whipped my head to the small children. They all had giant smiles their faces. Their cheeks turned red as they nervously stared at me. I felt my heart race, my face blaring red in embarrassment.
I felt Sam jerk next to me, hearing the commotion must have startled him. I immediately jumped, my heart stopping in surprise for a moment. He blinked slowly stretching, his arm coming over me and wrapping around my shoulder.
"Good morning sleepy head...did you have a nice dream?" His eyes turned to me and he smiled at me.
"Hm...yeah..."
"Which one was it this time?" He laughed lightly, rested his forehead against mine.
"The one where you come back...the best part of that dream is just seeing your smiling face again...I was at the best part when you woke me up..." He said in slight annoyance while groaning. I felt my cheeks twinge a slight pink, remembering the event myself.
"Sorry...I didn't mean to interrupt your dream." I said with slight sadness, leaning on my paw that was on top of his. My other hand was propping me off the floor.
"Just be happy and it won't be." He blinked, pondering the statement for a moment. "Er...interrupted I mean." Then his eyes blinked again, uncertainty setting into his silver eyes.
"No wait! That's not what I meant I-" I touched his face, his remark quickly falling silent.
"Hun, I know what you meant." I smiled, my forehead touching his slightly.
"Well then..." He laughed lightly, getting me to smile in return. His silver gaze locked with mine. I could feel myself bite my lip, knowing where this was going. He was the right choice, he was my choice. I never felt regret about this, and it was comfortable...just normal.
"Heh...yeah." We started to lean closer, a small smile appearing on both of our mouths. I was seeing this as a necessity, us together. I could feel my eyes closing, only to be interrupted by feeling my lap getting pounce on.
"Are you the girl Sam is going to marry!?" A young Eevee yelped, her purple eyes shining in excitement. I felt myself jerk back, the moment now interrupted. I felt my face smile awkwardly, my eye twitching as my face blared a hot red. I could feel my heart beat rapidly at the question.
"Er uh..." I muttered, twiddling my fingers nervously. I was far from prepared for that question. Not that I didn't want to give an answer, I just didn't know if it would be the right answer.
"You are! Oh I just knew it!" She screamed, hopping back into Sam's lap. I felt my eyes squint as I tried to read Sam's face. My lips pursed as I traced his face. His lips seemed to tighten a bit before relaxing and his eyes were staring directly ahead. He dared not make eye contact with me, knowing that I was already shooting him an awkward glance.
"She...has a really active...imagination." He muttered, standing up and extending his hand out to me. I gripped it, standing up. The growlithe walked around starring up at me with blue eyes.
"No she doesn't, Piper has got it right! Your Summer...the girl from Sam's stories. You two are just perfect for each other, I can tell! Besides, you look at each other like grown ups do...ya know...when they want to-" I turned a glance to Sam, seeing his face twinge with red in embarrassment and with every word that the growlithe was saying, he was becoming more of a wreck. But his eyes were wide as the young growlithe continued on and interrupted before he could finish the sentence.
"Nixon, that's enough! Geez, lay off the sugar..." Sam yelped, rubbing the back of his neck. I could see his whole body shaking, his shaking hand nervously rubbed his arm. He quickly let out a nervous shaky sigh. I felt myself let out a laugh, hiding behind my paw. The growlithe who had remained quiet for a moment, began to wag his tail again. He exchanged a glance at the eevee before they ran in different directions, laughing.
"How does he even know about that...?" Sam muttered. Some kids just have their ways...and others are just able to pick up on it...I...uh...think.
I felt myself smile widely, a bit surprised how this visit turned out. It was the early hours of the morning, Sam usually goes to get the daily mission while I sleep. On his way back, he sometimes ends up stopping at the Chansey day care. Chansey sometimes steps out, running a few errands while Sam watches the kids.
"Well...time for them to eat! Hey kids, time for breakfest!" The kids quickly ran to Sam, pouncing on him as he brought out the apples and oran berries. They all took several apples and oran berries and gathered around the little table in the room. There they sat talking and laughing, eating their breakfast in a ordinary fashion.
I remember when Sam and I used to eat at WigglyTuff's guild, we were always rushing dinner. But since we graduated, it has been about slowing down and taking our time when it comes to the little things. So we spent a lot of time together.
"Hey Summer! Stop daydreaming and come sit with me." Sam hollered, waving his hand as he looked at me. I smiled, sitting beside Sam as I watched the little pokemon eat. I quietly looked at Sam seeing him smile as he looked to the children with pride. I felt myself reach out my hand, locking fingers as we sat at the table.
"See Piper, their doing it again!" The bulbasuar shouted. The eevee, who I'm assuming is Piper, shot a look at us. Her purple eyes sparkling at us as I awkwardly separated myself from Sam. The children giggled as I felt my temperature rise.
"Okay kiddies I'm back!" A voice hollered from the doorway. We all glanced at the door seeing a Chansey standing there, her face gleaming with a toothy smile. I breathed out a sigh of relief as the questions and constant gazes faded off.
"She's back!" The cyndaquil shouted, rushing over to the Chansey. She greeted them warmly before looking up at us. She smiled gracefully, walking over to us as the children went back to their dinner.
"Thanks for watching them guys...I appreciate it. I just hope that they didn't give you any problems." She whispered the last part as so the kids wouldn't hear and then she showed us to the door.
"Sam! Don't go! We'll miss you!" Cried the five pokemon. Sam and I turned around and he knelt down beside them.
"I'll miss you too...I promise I'll come back soon okay?" He said, receiving playful hugs from all the kids before they ran back. The growlithe and eevee stayed behind, sharing a final hug with Sam. Piper had smirked, running off to jump on the oshawott. I watched as the growlithe stayed.
"She's pretty...I hope you guys really do get married one day..." He whispered, getting me to give off another stifled laugh.
"Nixon...I'll see you later buddy...behave." Sam hollered as we left the building. How adorable...Sam is so great with kids! I like that side of him...its so adorable. I felt myself smile for him and turned to him to see Sam immediately stop in his tracks, staring blankly into the distance. He looked like a stone, those glossy eyes and still body. His breathing hitched and seemed shaky as he exhaled.
"What's the matter hun?" He immediately shook his head and continued walking with me home.
"That just escalated quickly...I mean with the whole marriage and all." He said as he let out a laugh. I found myself laughing too.
"Kids these days..."
"Well...I'm going to forget about it...its not really important anyway right?" He said continuing to walk. I felt my pacing stop. Something about those words hurt... I could feel pain drive a stake right through my heart. Why are you thinking this!? You have known the guy a long time...but dated him for a substantially less amount...don't worry about it!
"Summer? You okay...?" Yes you are...stop reading into this...it was just a stupid sentence!
"Y-yeah...let's just head home..." He smiled, as I pushed the previous thoughts from my head. I shouldn't let this bother me... besides... who cares? I felt myself smile, our fingers lacing together as we walked home as the sun began to rise into the sky.
His laugh always sent chills up my spine. His icy blue eyes locked with mine as we stood in his home, surrounded by shadows. This was his domain, he had the home field advantage. I was the visitor that was going to crush his winning streak.
"Hurry up already!" He shouted, my ears pinned back at the sudden sound. My teeth clenching together as I sprinted toward him. My paws slapped the floor and I allowed the electricity to slap against the floor. He readied himself, glaring at me. A wild smirk ran across his face, as if he was determined to try something.
My paws slapped the floor, electricity pouring from them. The crackle of birds chirping ran through my ears as I lunged forward, my claws extended. He smirked, vanishing into the shadows below, leaving me to wonder where he would strike.
"Your such a cheater..." I muttered, growling through my clenched jaw. A soft chuckle filled the room and my eyes narrowed, trying to peer through the darkness of the shadows.
"That's what makes you so..." He stopped talking, leaving only silence. My hair stood on edge as the air became ice cold. I could hear charging electricity ring through my ears, my paws clenched as I looked for him. I whipped my head to the left, then to the right, I glanced to the ceiling...nothing but silence.
"Vulnerable..." He whispered behind me, I quickly whipped my head to his direction but was met with a shadow ball. I skid across the floor, wiping the dirt from my mouth.
"Cheap shot..." I muttered softly.
"Come now Soul, we both know that's just the way it works...your not supposed to play by the rules." I gripped the floor, standing again on four feet. He came out of the shadows, standing in perfect form.
"Good to see the training payed off for you..." I muttered, glancing at him. He disappeared again, leaving only silence.
I crouched to the floor, my fingers pulsing along the floor. Darkrai needs to come out and play. My ears scanned the area, listening for any movement.
"Behind y-" I jumped up, electricity formed a ball on my tail and I whipped it in his direction. He was pushed back, his hands falling as the smoke cleared. I brought my head up, a smirk running across my face.
"I wouldn't get so cocky..." He smirked, giving a slight nod before floating toward me.
"That's everything...we know what to work on...now, let's execute." I nodded. I needed to play by my rule's not by a set corse, for things change. He needed to finish, not get cocky because he lands the first hit.
"Everyone..." He muttered softly. His fingers laced together as a portal opened, lava and heat met us as we walked through. I smirked, the hottest place is the best place to hold someone prisoner.
Intrigued. Her red eyes scanned the room cautiously, and she turned to me.
"And this is going to keep them here?" She was talking about the iron cages that sat in the room. They sat across from each other respectively. Cracks ran along the red floor, orange lava slightly ceaping through the cracks.
I immediately made a shadow ball firing it in her direction. She hastily jumped out of the way, sliding along the floor. Her eyes glared up at me. She quickly charged up my paw with electricity, lunging for him. I caught her hand mid-motion. My arm twitched, pain surging through my arm for a moment.
"Don't be so quick to attack...look." I glanced up, seeing that the shadow ball had failed to break the cages.
"It didn't break..." She muttered in excitement. Her mouth was slightly ajar.
"Incolnel 750...or at least that's what they use...officer Magnezone and his lackies had several holding cells for prisoners... this place was one of them... until the volcano became a bit to unstable." She looked to me.
"Where are we?" She asked. I turned to her, her eyes entranced for a moment.
"Dark Crater..." She ran and a hollow sound came up from the floor, it seemed hollow enough to run on...but it could have been possible that nothing but lava was below us.
"Anything below us?" She asked, pointing to the cracked floor.
"Lava perhaps..." She bit her lip as if nervous of falling. Her eyes quickly blinked and she narrowed her eyes at me.
"Hmph...fine." She quickly snapped her finders a sound echoing through the hallowed volcano.
"Let us begin then..." I nodded my head.
"Team Charm first?" She nodded, and I quickly snapped my fingers. A dark portal appeared, and she stepped forward dissapearing in the shadows.
"This is only the first step of many."
"Let's go girls!" A Lopbunny passed a wooded area. Her brown hair blowing in the wind so brightly. Her cream colored chest was puffed out in pride as she glanced behind her, her puffy tail wagging in annoyance. She majestically moved, calling to the Medicam and Gardevior behind her.
The Gardevior twirled smiled brightly as her red eyes scanned the area. Her green arms flowed off like a dress. Her red eyes were sharp as they scanned the area. She tilted her head, glancing in its direction. A certain Pikachu croached in the bushes a smile appearing on its face.
"Do you sence that?" The psychic type asked.
"Huff...Huff...sence what?" A medicam ran in pursuit of the two, her face red from exhaustion. She was tired of trying to catch them. Her pink skin shoulders was slumped over in echaution as she perked her head.
"Hm...must be nothing...let's just find this outlaw." The Gardevior answered. The group moved forward unknown to them that they were the ones being pursued.
Run faster...run farther. I felt my heart pound as I rounded a corner turning back for a moment to catch a glimpse of the blue eyes that were chasing me.
"Help me! Please!" I yelled through the forest, a slight smirk on my face. I ran to a clearing, glancing at the fall down. I'm trapped.
"You should have known better then to cross me Soul!" He growled. I gripped my tail in fear.
"Somebody help me, please!" I screeched as loud as I could.
"Stop!" A voice bellowed from behind Darkrai. He turned his head, His gaze directed at the Lopbunny.
"Lopbunny stop...this isn't our mission..." The medicam claimed behind her. Her teammates glared at her and she quickly turned her head.
"But its the right thing to do...so right! Step away from the pikachu!" I quickly rushes to them, hiding behind them quietly.
"I'm not looking to fight you, I just want her..." He pointed in my direction. I gripped the Gradevior tighter.
"Stay behind me..." She whispered softly, her arms raising in defense. Darkrai smirked, unsheathing his claws. His eyes sparkled a bright purple. His claws sparkling a bright purple.
"You stay away from her!"
"You gunna make me?" She growled at him, as he just smirked at her discomfort.
"He's mine!" Medicham sprang forward, a orange ball forming between her fingers. Lopunny ran behind her.
"Wait!" It was already too late, medicham was now firing her hyperbeam. Darkrai formed a shadow ball between his finger, firing it at her attack. A explosion occurred and smoke and dust filled the air. The sky was being blocked by the smoke and medicham stood there before charging in to the dust.
"Stop! Medicham, come back!" Lopunny called. Her voice had desperately tried to reach her friend, hoping her plea would stop her friend. My ears perked to a sound I knew too well, shadow ball. It had seemed to make contact and out of the smoke came Medicham, she slide across the floor. Standing with a smirk.
"He's strong..." She stood very still the breathing of the team filled the air as the smoke settled. I smirked, seeing Darkrai not there.
"What the-" A shadow ball shot Medicham and she fell to the floor with a thud. Lopunny shouted to her, coaxing her to get up.
"Medicham's out...kinda like you in the next few seconds." Medicham squirmed on the floor. His eyes were a dark purple his hand extended toward her. I felt my body shiver for a moment, he was frightening when he was fighting.
He then turned to Lopunny, and she had already looked fearful. Darkria's eyes flashed purple and a dark shadow fell over her, and Lopunny fell, to the floor...asleep. Like medicham, she squirmed on the floor. His eyes cast to me, a smirk running across his face. It was as if he was proud to show me his power.
"And then there was one..." He smirked. Gardevior looked around, her frightened eyes scanning her friends. Regardless she put on a brave face.
"I'm not afraid of you, I know your tricks!" She shouted. I still gripped her tightly a smile forming on my face. I puffed up my cheeks and unleashed electricity. She screeched in pain, and I didn't let up until she fell to the floor. Her screams of agony touched my ears and my teeth only clenched in annoyance. I poured out as much as I could, my energy barely depleting as I looked up to Darkrai who stared on.
"But you don't know all of mine..." He snapped his finger, a dark portal opening beneath the fallen members of Team Charm. They disappeared in a smoke and Darkrai looked at me. Opening a portal for us, he gestured for the journey back, after all...we had prisoners to attend to.
"Hey get up!" My eyes were shut tightly, my arms locked in place. I felt someone push my left side. If someone was going to kill me, now would be a great time to do so. I could still hear the water rushing, so I was still close to the river.
"Get up already!" I opened my eyes, squinting as the bright light obscured my vision. I lurched up, my eyes wide open. Blurred at first, but soon fixed on a face. When it came into view, I saw it was an eevee.
Her lips moved from side to side, her eyes tracing me. Her fur was silver, instead of the normal brown. A white chest instead of the normal cream. She had jade green eyes that curiously looked at me. I quickly fell backwards in surprise, falling back into the shallow water of the river.
She quickly covered her mouth to hide her laugh. "Does this look funny to you!?" I yelled, my fist balling up for a moment as I glared up at her from my sitting position. Her diamond shaped ears were pushed back.
"Its always funny to watch someone fall..." She commented. I glared up at her and she simply wagged her tail.
"Not from where I'm standing..." I remarked, shaking the water from my fur as I walked back toward the gravelled shore.
"Well, that all depends on which side of the coin your on..." She stepped forward and I quickly grit my teeth as she stepped onto my blue sash. I pulled it slightly hoping she would just get off and let me be on my way...but her silver paw remained. I didn't know this person's intensions and quite frankly didn't want to stay to find out.
"Get off my stuff!" I growled, glaring at her face that still held its happy composer.
"What's with the rush? Stay a while...jump in the stew I'm making...I love eating riolu like you for dinner." She said sarcastically as she rolled her eyes. She could tell I was a bit uneasy about the situation. But I shook it off, quickly snorting, and turning to leave.
"Hmph...bite me." I muttered. As I turned to leave she stepped forward on my sash, it fell slightly exposing my scar. Her eyes quickly lit up, curious.
"You're hurt! Y...you..." Her quick sentence stopped. A frown formed on her face and her eyes quickly cast up to me. I glanced up to her green eyes, her silver tail drooping as silence claimed the conversation. I held my breath, knowing where this was going.
"You...have a scar." She had sounded sad. The melencoly tone that resignated in her voice was one I knew all too well...pity. I quickly yanked the sash back, gritting my teeth in anger. Her silver paw stayed put on the sash, refusing to let up on it.
"That's none of your damn business!" I yelled yanking it back with more intensity. I quickly flew back into the water again and glanced up seeing she had released her hold on my sash, letting me fall into the water. I growled out in anger.
"I was just trying to help you! You jerk!" Her emerald green eyes narrowed followed by an icy glare. She pridefully puffed out her chest, her diamond ears pinned back in anger. I felt my balled up fist soften, my gaze averting from her eyes.
"..." She turned, her tail erect. I stood up, feeling bad about yelling earlier. She was just trying to help? Sure hadn't seemed that way to me... She laughed at me...little-
"Fine! Stay out here for all I care!" She yelled, tearing me away from my thoughts. If she was trying to help, she sure had a funny way of showing it. But I swallowed the lump in my throat, knowing that if she was just trying to help...I probably should have bit my tongue.
"I...I'm not...a jerk." I muttered. She quickly stopped. Her ears turned to me and she slightly turned her head.
"Come again?" I growled as her eyes cast to me, her silver tail swishing from side to side as she listened to me.
"You heard what I said..." I muttered. She just shook her head.
"You really are clueless about what to say to girls, huh?" She didn't know that half of it. She was always making these snarky comments toward me. Her eyes leered at me and this smirk rolled onto her face.
"You already know what I want to hear..." She said. I looked away, seeing the cave sit behind her. That was probably her home. I probably would have been stuck interacting with this nut-job anyway.
"...sorry..."
"For..." Her paws were extended toward me in play, her tail wagging in triumph. I crossed my arms and looked away. I mumbled softly under my breath, my teeth grinding in the process.
"Being a...jerk." She smiled and turned away.
"That's better, now come inside...I just finished making lunch, and you sound famished." She was inviting me into her house now!? What was with this chick? Hmph I don't need her food, I can-
My stomach grumbled softly and I touched it with my paw glancing up at the eevee that at continued to walk away.
"Told you, now come along Lu." She huffed. She used the last part of my species name. It was annoying. I stood up glancing away from her cave, noticing the sun beginning to rise into the sky.
"The name's not Lu, its Basil..." She glanced back. I scowled at this irritating girl, and her annoying comments. I opened my mouth to ask her name but she cut me off.
"Wha-"
"Avery...my name is Avery." She commented, leading me into her house.
That's all you get I'm afraid... I was going to put another POV but...damn thats just too much...I actually think I pushed that here. I actually like Avery, she's fun. Hopefully you guys like her too...she's kinda different from others in this story. I hope you had fun reading this, I had fun writing it and I hope to hear from y'all soon... So bye! Please review!
