GangsterGurl135 steps out onto the stage and up to the microphone

Gangstergurl135: Yo, People! Ready for Chapter 2?!

Screams of 'Yes' from the crowd fill the arena. Bloody Nikki was seen on the far side of the stage, reading "Queen of the Damned" by Anne Rice. Signs appeared that said " We Love Gangsters!"

GangsterGurl135: OK! Here We GO!!!!

The crowd roars with excitement

GangsterGurl135: LOL I wish!

Chapter 2: Rounding Up The Gang!

Pikachu laid in his bed for hours, thinking about what happened. He sat on the floor in front of the mirror with his shirt off and gently glided his fingers over the scabbed wound on the nape of his neck. Totodile came in with a tray of chocolate chip cookies and sat down next to his friend.

" Cookies make everything better!" said Totodile offering Pika a cookie.

Pikachu didn't look at it and continued to feel the bite marks. Toto put it back on the plate and curled up to Pika side.

" I'm not gonna say " I told ya so", but nooneliked him from the start."

" Yea. I don't even why I liked him anymore."

" Cuz he was good looking and treated you like a prince for the first couple of months," said Totodile as he wrapped an arm around his best friends shoulders. "But who cares now that you got that CUTE red-head!"

"Who? Charizard? I just met him! I don't even know if he was gay or just being nice!" said Pikachu with a large blush painted across his face.

"Yea. Yea. Whatever." said Totodile.

There was silence before Pikachu stood up and said, " You know? We should go on that road trip!"

Totodile's expression brighten tremendously as he shot up and grinned like a little school boy with a piece of chocolate in front of him. "Really?!"

" Sure but everything has to be read-" but Pika couldn't finish the sentence as Totodile rushed out and was on his cell in a flash. He stuck his head back in the room and asked the blonde, " So it's just you, me, Squritle, Bulba and Cyndi?"

Pika shrugged as he collapsed on his bed with the yellow mouse comforter on it. He laid his head on both his palms and relaxed to the sound of Totodile running around the house, making preparations.

Totodile came back into a little while later to find Pikachu asleep. He smiled and found his cell on the floor. Toto hooked it to the charger and found Charizard's card, laying on the bureau. At that moment, Totodile got a devilish idea. He took the card and got his cell phone out.

" Hello?" said the voice on the other end of the phone.

"Hi, I'm Pikachu's roommate, Totodile."

"Oh, Hi. I'm Charizard. What's up?"

"Since you were so nice to Pika, I was wondering if you'd like to take a cross country trip with us."

"For how long?"

"I don't know. For a few weeks?"

"Um . . . I'm not sure. I'll let you know by tomorrow, ok?"

"Ok, bye."

Totodile hung up, and looked back at Pikachu with a soft smile.

'I know your still torn up about Dragonair, but I can still try to give you some happiness.'

The next morning, Pikachu woke up to the sound of 5 different voices, yelling from downstairs. When he walked down, he spotted Bulbasuar, Squirtle, Cyndaquil, and Grovyle, Bulba's cousin.

"I'm telling you I can't go unless Grovyle comes, too!" yelled Bulbasuar.

"And I'm telling you, there's now way we can fit all these people in the Winnebago!" yelled Totodile.

Cyndaquil spotted Pika, sitting on the steps and waved silently to him. Pika waved back and a soon as he did everyone turned to him.

" Pikachu! Hey buddy!" shouted Squirtle, running to him. Squirtle was a national swimmer and had many trophies to show for it. He was well toned with brownish blonde hair and blue eyes.

" Hey, Pikie." said Bulbasuar. Bulba was one of Pika's closest friends since they were in grade school. He was a landscaper and worked mostly as a botanist. He had a mass of green and brown hair and dark forest green eyes.

"Hi, guys," replied Pika, trying to fight off Squirtle from lifting him up, " What's with all the arguing?"

"My mom said I can't go unless Grovyle comes with me and Totodile says 'no'. It's your trip. What do you think?"

"Why not? Grovyle's cool." Then he turned to Totodile who stood there with his arms crossed, " Besides, you know you have a crush on him."

Totodile stared wide-eyed at Pikachu as his face turned pure red. Everyone started laughing except Grovyle as Toto ran into the kitchen. Grovyle ran after him. Toto ran out the back door and quickly climbed the big oak that stood in the middle of the backyard.

When he saw this, Grovyle walked to the trunk and looked up to an angry Totodile with a huge blush on his face.

" Totodile, can you come down here, or do I have to come up there?"

There was no answer so Grovyle begin to climb the tree. He sat on the same branch as Totodile but Toto's back was up against the tree trunk. He didn't look at Grovyle. He was too embarrassed by what Pikachu, even when Pikachu didn't know it was true.

"Can we talk?" asked Grovyle as he inched towards Totodile. Totodile kept sliding back, trying to keep away from the brownish-greenette. When he was totally pinned and couldn't move back, he turned to see Grovyle nearly two inches away from his own face. Grovyle's expression look like that of one who was sincerely saddened.

" C-could you . . . B-backup I little?" asked Totodile.

" Oh! Sorry." With that, Grovyle moved back significantly.

"So was what Pika said true?"

"Y-yes." whispered Toto, looking away from Grovyle. Grove took Totodile's cheek and made him face him.

" Totodile, you should never be ashamed of your feelings, whether they'll remain unrequited or accepted."

He looked into Grovyle's soft jade eyes and smiled. " Just say you don't like me that way."

" Well, no one said that." said Grovyle, pressing his lips against Toto's. Totodile was so shocked that he nearly fell off the tree branch. When Grovyle pulled back, he saw that Totodile's face was covered in a massive blush.

"Well, let's get back." said Grove before jumping down out of the tree.

When they got back into the living room, everyone looked up.

"So, is he going or not?" asked Cyndaquil who was obviously bored, sprawled out on the couch. He's dark turquoise colored hair with strikes of red was smoothed back on a pillow while he was facing the ceiling.

" Yeah, but it's going to be a little crowded with the 7 of us."

Pikachu was confused and counted around the room, "But there's only 6 of us."

Totodile snickered and everyone turned to him. "Don't worry about who the other person is. Everybody might want to consider who there going to be sleeping with instead."

"WHAT?!" yelled everyone in the room. They all looked at him wide-eyed.

"Well, what do you expect? A Winnebago with only 3 beds, everyone's going to have to choose a bunk buddy! Also, how many of you have a license?"

Grovyle and Squirtle raised their hands, slightly.

"Then the three of us, plus my other friend, will divide the driving. Pikachu, Cyndaquil, and Bulbasaur will take care of . . . Everything else!"

"Were not you wives!" yelled Cynda.

"Oh, we'll figure it out when we get on the road!" yelled Totodile.

GangsterGurl135: Hoped you liked it! Just so you know. I'm lazy so I didn't pre-write this story. I'm just gonna pull pairings out of thin air, unless you people wanna challenge me to put in you favorite poke-pairing. It doesn't have to be a yaoi.
