Did I ever want to get linked?

Previously, on DIEWTGL…

Red's jaw dropped, while Green couldn't believe his eyes. Gold was too busy drooling over Crys, but Crystal thought they looked beautiful…

Yellow had on a yellow dress with the top part horizontal black and white striped spaghetti strap. She had black and white peek-toe heels (Black shoe, white strap) and around her neck was a long metal chain with a rose at the end. To Red, she looked very beautiful. Gorgeous, even.

Blue was wearing a sky blue dress that was almost to her ankles. It slitted up until the knee, and it was a v-neck. She also had thin straps, a silver belt that hung off her waist diagonally, and silver peek-toe flats. Green…he was pretty much dead by now.

Yellow was blushing furiously at Red's dazed gaze. Blue, however, smirked at their reactions and declared, "Let's dance."

Hey ya'll! ^^ I'm back with another chapter! Thanks, X, (In DIEWTGU) I'm glad you thought that that the plot was deeper than you thought. Well, I do have very deep plots if you can see them or if I decide to put effort into them. Yvonne asked some gym leaders (from Kanto-Sinnoh) to come here. Misty isn't here…(she had bitterly ripped up the paper.)

Disclaimer: Nope. I don't own pokemon. If I did, these stories might make nice side stories to the manga…^^ But, anyway, if I owned Pokespe, then I would know Japanese! 8D

WARNING: This chapter includes ORS.

"D-Dance?" Green narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, dance," Blue took his hand and fluttered her eyelashes. His heart basically melted into a pool of…heart-liquid.

"Folks, listen up!" Yvonne was on the stage with a microphone. She adorned her normal attire, although she had stated clearly that they had to wear formal attire. "We have our schedule planned out. First, we will have poetry time. Everyone may participate. Next, it will be dinner. Then the party will begin…with singers, of course."

"Oh, poetry!" Yellow smiled. She liked poetry.

Red snapped out of his daze. "Hmm, I might go up."

"Really?" Yellow sat down next to Red.

Yvonne recited, "I go boo

Make them shoo

I make fun

Way they run."

"I wonder why she said that," Yellow pondered to Red. Red shrugged and watched as gym leaders went up reciting poems they had made up or found in books.

"I'm…I'm going up," Red told Yellow and walked to the stage.

"Looks like Red of the Kanto pokedex-holders is participating!" Yvonne announced into the mike.

Erika frowned in her seat next to Brock. She had promised to keep Misty informed, but the way things were going…Misty probably wouldn't want to know.

"Once, a blood red rose

Bumped into a sunflower

Sticking its ugly nose

Making the flower's petals shower

Onto the ground below.

The petals

Fell into

A pit

Of dreams

Somewhere below

I was there to show

The petals

That hope wasn't lost

There was still a cause-

The flower.

We trampled the rose,

But there was no mighty pose.

Only the flower,

Became whole,

And I found my missing piece.

The sunflower," Red said into the microphone, smiling to the dex-holders' table.

Red came down the stage and sat next to Yellow once more. He put his arm around her waist, pulling her closer. She smiled at him and blushed, whiled Crys muttered, "Why is Gold such a pervert and not a romantic guy…?"

Gold heard his chance once Crys said that. He ran up the stage and took the mike, "Imma read a poem I wrote myself.

Sparklin',

Pretty,

She's my gal,

My Super-Serious Gal,

She's Crys." Then he ran down.

Crystal's eyes became sparkly and she sighed, "That was…so…sweet!"

Gold smirked and pecked her cheeks. Her face became extremely flushed, but she managed to say, "…for a perv…"

Gold whispered to Red, "I made that up on the spot."

Yellow was calmly sitting on the silk-lined chair. Blue had gone off with Green to the dance floor, and she was slightly bored. Then, the food arrived.

Gold immediately sat down next to Crys and grabbed a fork. "This looks good!"

Red smiled and declared, "But not as good as Yellow's cooking!"

Crys was sipping the French onion soup, "Really? Maybe sometime you can cook for us?"

"Well," Yellow agreed, "If they let me use their kitchen."

"Of course they will!" Crys continued sipping her onion soup.

Later, after the dinner

"It's time for singing!" Yvonne declared, patting her stomach. "I hope ya'll can sing, 'cause I sure can't!"

"Hey, guys," Blue appeared out of nowhere, putting her hands on Crystal's and Yellow's shoulders. "Come with me."

After the girls left, Gold leaned over the table and asked, "Do you know what their doing?"

"I honestly don't know."

With the girls

"Okay, you know how the boys each did something for us?" Blue told the girls in the restroom.

"Yes," Yellow and Crys agreed simultaneously.

"Well, why don't we sing for them?" Blue suggested, placing her hands on her hips.

Yellow and Crystal were silent, then Yellow answered, "W-well, I don't know any good songs…"

"Well, then I should choose them…" Blue smirked deviously.

Crys frowned and said, "Well, I think I might know which songs to do…"

"Y-yeah, I think I might know some songs," Yellow hastily put in, not wanting to sing what Blue chose.

Back with the Boys

"Hey, they're back!" Red said.

Green grunted, "Well, look, it's Blue. On the stage."

Blue was indeed, on the stage, and she was holding a microphone. "Hey, I'd like to sing a couple songs for my boyfriend, Green~!"

Green blushed a pale hint of red and the other boys burst into laughter.

Blue started singing 'Break Your Heart' and went onto 'Just Dance'. Then she beckoned for Green to come up. He walked up the stage, and a random lady from another room cried, "Oh," and fainted.

Blue sung 'Love the Way You Lie' while Green rapped. (A/N: Can you imagine that? Heeeheee…XD;;)

They came down stage and Gold patted Green's back. "Ya did a great rap!"

Green glared at Gold but Blue added, "You did!"

Red asked Blue, "Um…where's Yellow?"

"Right there," Blue pointed to the stage where Yellow was blushing madly.

"Err…uh, I'm going to sing," she mumbled, then sung 'Thank You for the Music'. She got more 'courageous' (For ya, DS!) and sung 'Off the Chain'. To Red, she sounded like an angel singing, and more so when she said, "This…was for…Red."

She came down the stage hurriedly, and Red caught her in his arms. "That was great," he praised, and she smiled at him.

Gold, unfortunately, had to ruin the moment by yelling, "It's Super-Serious Gal!"

As it turns out, he was right. She was on the stage. Green had already guessed when Yellow was up there what the girls had been up to. But it Crys, singing for Gold!

Crys gripped the microphone tightly and said, "This is for my…boyfriend Gold."

Gold felt like the happiest guy in Johto-strike that, Kanto-when she said that.

Crys passionately sung 'Complicated' and was about to sing another song when Gold leapt up there and grabbed another mike. Crystal, though surprised, went along with Gold and together they sung 'Dynamite'.

When Gold and Crys got off, Blue took Crys's and Yellow's hands and took them on stage once more. She announced, "We're going to sing an encore!"

Together, though some reluctant, they sang 'A Year Without Rain'.

When they all got off, awaiting arms welcomed them. Yes, oh yes, that's right, one of Blue's plans had turned out right.

222222222222222222222222222

A girl with wavy navy blue hair and gleaming red-brown eyes stood in front of a hill. She held out her pale hand and muttered, "Father…"

World Gorger appeared in a fatherly outfit and asked, "Yes?"

"Why…do I feel as if…I'm part of someone else?"

"Well, dear, maybe I'll explain it to you if you do a few favors…"

"Yes, Father. What do you wish for me to do?"

"Go to Vermillion. Here is a ticket at a motel. Please, this is like being a spy. I just want to see how agile and smart you are."

"Okay," the girl pocketed her ticket and walked out into the city of Petalburgh. She sighed, as it was an incredibly long walk from Petalburgh to Vermillion. She had only one pokemon, Bufi the vulpix, and vulpixes couldn't exactly fly. As she walked along the road, she came across a small pond and decided to stop there to enjoy the scenery. Near the pond's edge, she saw a boy with pale really shiny blond hair and gray eyes. He was slowly walking around the pond, carrying a mudkip.

"Hey," she said, coming up next to him. That, apparently, startled him.

He raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you want, stranger whom I do not know?"

"Umm…maybe you could travel with me to Vermillion?" she asked. Even though they had just met, she wanted a person to travel with her.

"Eh, okay. I need to go to Cerulean anyway."

In a graveyard in Johto, a couple was crying over a grave. Their young daughter had died at the hands of World Gorger…

Ashley Shinkudo Kango, 1996-2010

They knew why she was targeted, as she had a gift, a curse. After her death, she had been in their nightmares, explaining about her blessing.

-Nightmare-

It was a barren island. An old maple tree cracked and the few leaves it had fell to the ground. A girl with long black hair and almost-black eyes stared off into the distance. She picked up a leaf and let go of it, watching it fly in the dry wind. Her hair was swept around about by the wind, and her pale grey long-sleeved knee-length dress was blown around.

"ASHLEY!"

The girl turned around and smiled slightly. So, her parents still missed her after 2 weeks…well, that was to be expected from humans. She was no longer human. A ghost? No. She was more of a spirit, a spirit living in Darkrai's 'paradise'.

"I'm not really here."

Those were the harshest words she had ever spoken. Back when she was alive, despite her curse, she was the sweetest, soft-spoken girl in the town. In fact, she had had a boyfriend…she had even begged Darkrai earlier not to torture him with nightmares. He just turned around and muttered, "He will be…but not him." (A/N: If you figure that riddle thing out, review saying so, and what you think it means!)

Her parents were sobbing silent tears, drinking in her face. Just as beautiful as it was before her death. She was by far paler than she should have been, but she looked the same.

"My blessing…is the reason of my departure," Ashley plucked a charred piece of ash off the ground.

"What blessing?" her mom managed to choke out.

"Darkrai's gift," Ashley blew the piece of ash onto the ground, making a fire springing up from the ground.

The flames danced and showed Darkrai, the pokemon resident in the Sinnoh. Her parents' eyes were wide with fright, reflecting the flames.

"I can control nightmares of people I know," Ashley waved the flames way. "World Gorger wanted my ability. And he took my blood."

-End of Flashback-

Her father…W.G. Hollow was…disliked in the Hoenn. She had never met her mother. In fact, her father seemed to hide too many secrets from her. When she woke up, her father told her that she had been in a coma for 5 years and had lost all recollection of events before. Such a sad way to wake up…

555555555555555555555555555

Deep within the Viridian Forest, there was a stain of gray and red. Nothing grew there, and whoever stepped on the stain felt more uncertain than ever. Only a few people knew what had happened there, and those people didn't do anything about it. Why, you ask? They don't know about the stain.

The stain made by Toxin-Wing's/Hu-Kasa's ghost marked her dying spot. She had witnessed her uncle take her blood, and her powers away. She sighed, "Hu-Kasa…Toxin-Wing…those were never…me…"

'How were they never you?' a voice whispered.

"I only did it for Mother…" the girl ghost cried in despair. Flashes of her mom raced through her head. She knew her mom was the sister of World Gorger, but she had disappeared. Hu-Kasa's uncle promised he would bring them in touch once more.

The worst thing of being a new ghost for Hu-Kasa was that she didn't even remember why she was named Hu-Kasa. Or anything important, for that matter. She desperately wanted to change it, to get rid of the awful memories. But if it was meaningful to her mom, she would never change it. Never.

"Last night was fun!" Yellow exclaimed as she spooned a bit of her strawberry sundae into her mouth.

"Yeah," Red agreed, also spooning the strawberry ice-cream they were sharing into his mouth.

Blue and Green were still arguing over the flavor of ice-cream going in their sundae.

"Chocolate!" Blue cried.

"Vanilla," Green stated.

"...Er, how about you guys get a chocolate scoop and a vanilla scoop?" Yellow suggested.

"…THAT'S A GOOD IDEA!" Blue said, grabbed the money, and ordered a sundae with a chocolate scoop, vanilla scoop, and some nuts sprinkled on the top.

"By the way, have you seen Gold or Crys?" Red asked, wiping his mouth with a napkin.

"…What's taking them so long?" Blue complained. Today they were going to the beach.

"Pesky girl, you just had to get them one room? With Gold as the room-mate, you never know what-"

"PERVY THOUGHTS, GREEN!" Blue laughed and ate some chocolatey goodness.

Crystal came running out from the resort with Gold in pursuit.

"Sorry we were late, guys! Gold here," Crystal glared at Gold, "thought it was legal to go through my clothes."

"Hey, I was just looking for my clothes!" Gold protested.

"In my bag?"

"Our bags look the same!"

While the two were arguing, the other couples took it to their advantage and ate the remainder of the ice-cream.

"Should we go to the beach now?" Yellow asked, picking up her yellow beach bag.

"Sure," Blue said, linking her arm with Green's. "Let's go!"

When they reached the beach, it was calm and warm. No one really was there, and Yellow smiled. It was as peaceful as the Viridian Forest here, she decided.

Blue smirked and slid off her black cover-up. Green, who was setting up the umbrella, turned around and saw Blue. "O_O" was his expression.

She was wearing a dark blue bikini with only one strap. It was extremely simple, but…blood was spewed all over Green's face.

Crystal took off her cover-up next. Sure, Gold was a pervert and had a vivid imagination, he never pictured Super-Serious Gal in a 2 piece! (Okay, maybe he did, but it wasn't as…ah, to pervy!) She had on a-sadly for Gold, not a bikini-2 piece that was alight pink. It had a intersecting diagonal lines as the pattern, and it seemed clear why Blue had insisted on black cover-ups.

Yellow, though last, may have surprised them all. She was wearing a 2 piece! Yes, a 2 piece, but its bottom half was a skirt. The swimwear was a soft yellow color, and at the corner of the skirt was a red rose being held in the beak of an Altaria. Red did not expect this. Everyone pictured her in a 1 piece-even Blue was surprised when they bought it. Red, oh, poor Red, and poor ocean; it was turning bloody with his waterfall of a nosebleed.

"R-RED?" Yellow ran over to him and wiped the blood off his face. "GAH! RED! RED!"

Blue doubled over laughing, leaning on Green for support. Gold smirked, and Crys couldn't help but smirk, too.

A police officer came running over, crying, "AHH! WHERE'S THE MURDER?"

When the police officer saw the situation, he started to have a nosebleed, too. A female police officer, obviously his girlfriend, frowned and dragged him away, creating a trail of blood. When they were out of eyesight, a loud 'SLAP!' could be heard. That probably didn't help the blood.

That, unfortunately, put an end to their beach trip. The blood loss, plus the officer coming to scold them away, sent them back to their hotel rooms.

"What? How'd you get a vulpix?" asked the boy with shiny blonde hair.

"Ummm….I've always had it…?" The navy haired girl shrugged.

"Well, since we're in…er, what town are we in?"

"I DON'T KNOW!" the girl cried worriedly, checking her map. She cocked her head to the side and declared, "Mahogany Town!"

"…How'd we get to Mahogany Town?" the boy asked. "We're supposed to be going to Vermillion!"

"…True!" the red-brown eyes girl started to get extremely confused. "Er…we'll get there." She smiled sheepishly at the boy. "OH! HOW DUMB OF ME!" She yelled suddenly, "WHAT'S YOUR NAME?"

"…Kline," the grey-eyed boy replied.

"I see…"

"Your name?" Kline asked.

"Ah…it's stupid," the girl sighed.

"Really? As stupid as Kline Tateo?"

The girl smiled a little and admitted, "Dusk. Dusk Hollow."

"See? Not that stupid. I think it's cool," Kline took out his mudkip and began to feed it some pok`e block.

Ashley stood on the barren island, walking around in circles. She was now known as the 'Nightmare Angel' by the pokemon on the island. She, right now, was waiting for a few people to come to the island. See, this place was a land for the dead. Where she was the place for Darkrai's favored people. To her left, another island was there for bad people-and pokemon-that deserved to be punished. To her right was a place for normal people to stay.

Anyways, she was waiting for Darkrai to come. She, supposedly, had a bunch of explaining to do to her friends…in their nightmares.

"Is Red okay?" Yellow asked, patting the blood off his nose.

"I bet so," Green replied, holding a napkin to his nose. Of course, that only happened because of Blue.

Gold shrugged and said, "Well, look at me! Not a drop of blood!"

After they got back to the resort/hotel, the girls had changed back into normal clothes. Red, unfortunately, was still in a coma.

"When will he wake up?" Yellow questioned some more, concerned.

"When he gets that image out of his head," Green replied, then sipped his decaf.

"Well, maybe this'll help!" Yellow held up a little medicine packet with the 'ß ©' sign. "This will stop the blood!"

She put the medicine in a glass of water, let it dissolve, and had Red slowly sip it.

Crystal was over in the corner, checking off her vacation list.

Fancy Dinner √

Trip to the Beach √

Impress Gold √

Have Fun √

She smiled, happy that the vacation Blue had supplied was working off her stress. Most of Blue's plans went wrong…well, at least the full moon one went wrong.

"You're awake!" Yellow cried, flinging her arms around Red. Red patted her back.

"Er…What happened?" Red asked.

"Well, we were at the beach, and…" Blue was cut off by Red.

"Oh, I remember…" Red scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

"Do you want something to drink?" Yellow asked, getting up.

"Eh, I'll get it myself," answered Red, and took out a mug. He, since he couldn't drink espresso, filled his porcelain mug with some iced decaf. He sipped it slowly and asked, "Are we going any where next?"

Blue took out a brochure and read their options, "Well, there is a place we can go for lunch, called the Flounce, or we can head over to the weekly bazaar to buy souvenirs."

"Maybe we could do both," Crys suggested, taking out her purse. (A/N: Their rooms are all connected by doors, but the doors have locks. Currently, they're in room 926.)

"Blue? I've been meaning to ask," Crys rummaged through her purse while she spoke. "How come you didn't invite Silver?"

Blue dropped her brochure. "Of course I invited Silver! He probably just doesn't want to come yet or something!" Blue picked up the brochure angrily.

"Besides, he must be jealous!" Gold put in, earning a kick in the shin from Crys.

Of course Silver was jealous. The poor kid had crushed on Blue since…since the start of forever! With Green in the picture, he couldn't get Blue.

"Well, hopefully Silver makes it. I got him room 925," Blue sighed, "Well, let's decide where to go."

"Maybe we can go to lunch first!" Yellow fingered the hem of her short orange sundress.

"Sounds good," Red agreed, taking his mug to the small sink.

"Agreed?" Blue looked at her friends. "Okay!"

They all headed off to have lunch at the Flounce. Unknown to them, however, a certain red-head was eating at the Flounce, awaiting their arrival.

YES! This chapter was…GAH! Only one page longer than the first one? Oh, well. I guess it will have to do…

Anyways, I don't own Just Dance by Lady Gaga or Love the Way You Lie ft. by Rihanna. (Is that spelled correctly?) I also don't own Complicated by Avril Lavigne or Dynamite by Taio Cruz. Lastly, I don't own Thank You for the Music by ABBA or Off the Chain and A Year Without Rain by Selena Gomez. I do own the whole A Year Without Rain album in my iTunes, though!

The poem, Sunflower, and the poem Gold read, are purely copyright of SS19©. I would like to give credit to LilyFragrance/Fan-chan, who helped me choose the songs they sang! BTW, can you guess who the red-head is, and who Dusk Hollow is? Ciao for now, SS19~

Red: Hey!

SS19: GAH! How'd you-?

Red: Well, I've read ZAFA…decided never to go back.

SS19: OH, but you have to! * shoves Red *

Red: GAH! * falls into pit of ZAFA-ness *

SS19: Phew.
