Wow, an update…it's a miracle. I know I said that I was going to re-write this story, but then I decided not to…I'm just going to be writing better chapters form now on :D Thank you all who have reviewed :) This story is now officially not a HIATUS anymore :D Oh and Fanny if ur reading this…HAPPY B-DAY!! xD
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon, of course
"Wow, I like it, it's like actually pretty cute" Says the oldest of the Sensational Sisters as she twirls a blonde lock of her hair in her fingers. She eyes the orange-haired gym leader; two older teens appear from the side of her, a blue haired girl jotting down notes and another holding a camera, with her pink hair falling on her shoulders
"It's okay" the girl sighs contently. Her long carrot-colored hair running down her back, a small and elegant tiara resides on top of her head, along with a small veil, the pearls reflecting in the light, and a small Starmie shaped jewel in the middle. Covering her upper part is a traditional mermaid top, in coral pink, a long pearl necklace with a seashell charm on the end. Covering the bottom part of the girl is a long seafoam green…tail. It was clearly designed to hug the curves of her hips, then at the bottom it flares out, forming the fins. Sparkles draped over the whole ensemble, and of course, Misty's classic star on the rim of the tail. After taking a look in the mirror, Misty runs her hands over the side of her body, she had never been so proud of it, what with always having three older, prettier, taller, and curvier sisters, she eventually stopped trying, but by the looks of it, she wasn't doing so bad herself. A smile had formed on her lips.
"Okay, I changed my mind, Kym this is an awesome costume!" Misty says as she runs over to the raven haired girl, holding a sketchpad in her hand and a measuring tape around her neck.
"Why thank you, it's tres chic, qui?" Kym asks with a smile on her face. Misty smiles, and takes another look at herself in the mirror.
"Wait'll Ash sees you in this" Misty blushes, and looks back at the girl, who now has a very sly smile on her face. It was almost as if she had designed this costume just for that purpose alone, instead of for the play.
"Well, I'm going to go check on May and Dawn, I'll be back" With a wink, Kym disappeared behind the curtains of the dressing room. If she liked her costume, she could just imagine what Dawn's and May's looked like. Misty smiled before turning to her pink-haired sister.
"What's the camera for Lily?" Misty asks as she begins to adjust her costume, and taking a few more glances in the mirror.
"Well, we were going to make a poster for this play, apparently Daisy had told, like some people about it, and now they're like really excited, so we figured that we should spread the word" Lily says, as she takes a few shots of Misty. Misty laughs and rolls her eyes, she was surprised that they didn't use up all the film taking pictures of themselves.

Kym peers through another curtain, she instantly smiles when she sees a blue haired girl smiling at her image in the mirror. Her hair let out, and curled, a little past her shoulders, and her regular yellow clips were replaced by two small pink seashells. Another classic mermaid top, but in navy blue, clasped onto her upper body. Then for her "tail" was a long, flared out pink skirt, and on the rim, was a small blue heart. On her left wrist, was a multi-colored seashell bracelet.
"So what'd ya think?" Kym asks as she steps up next to Dawn and smiles at her creation. Dawn giggles, before twirling around, letting the layers of her "tail" flow, and sparkle.
"I love it, it's so cute!" Dawn cries, a smile on her face, "never thought that being a mermaid could be so…" Dawn stops and taps her finger onto her lightly colored peach lips, trying to think of the word.
"So…what? Cute? Fashionable?" Kym says excitedly as she clasps her hands together, fondling over her creation.
"Nope, pink!" Dawn says in an excited manner. Kym snapped out of her daze and rolled her eyes at the blue haired girl, yup, if Dawn were a color, she would definitely be pink.
Her outfit pretty much brought that out in her.
"Wonder what Misty's costume looks like?" Dawn says as she walks away from the mirror and over to Kym. Kym smiles and opens the curtain for Dawn.
"Go check it out, she's in the other room, but just a heads up, Lily has a camera, so don't be surprised if you see a sudden flash of bright light" Kym says jokingly, as she motions Dawn towards Misty's dressing room.
"Gotcha" With a smile, Dawn was already walking out the door, or curtain. Just before Kym was about to turn on her heel and check on May, a voice chirps from the doorway, making her turn around to see the pink mermaid once again.
"Oh and by the way, you might not want to go into May's room" Dawn says, as her usual smile turns into a frown.
"Why not?" Kym asks.
"Because she and Drew are having yet, another argument, I heard something about being arrogant and stuck up, wonder who that could be about" Dawn says sarcastically, as she and Kym both knew who the insult was directed to…
"Drew" They both said simultaneously while nodding their heads. If it was one thing that they could both identify, it was May and Drew's arguments, it usually sounded like, "you are the worst coordinator ever" then, "well you're so stuck up" and that was pretty much the basic format. But then again, they can't be worse than Ash and Misty's classic arguments, the age old "do not, do too."
"Well good luck with that" Dawn says before disappearing behind the curtain once again, leaving the raven haired trainer to tackle on the two smitten coordinators.
"Thanks Dawn" Kym says sarcastically before disappearing into the opposite curtain as well. As she draws nearer to the brunette's room, she heard something she didn't expect…silence.
'Guess they aren't arguing anymore…it's a miracle'
Step after step, as she gets closer and closer, when she finally reaches the "door" and opens it.
"So May, what'd you think about the cos-" Kym stops mid sentence, only to see what seemed like a green haired pirate trying to swoon a red-tailed mermaid. In other words, picture May being pinned to the wall by Drew, their faces inches apart, and a deep red blush on each of their faces, and standing in the doorway was a girl with a very sly smirk on her face, after staring at the two for a few seconds she made a notion as if to say 'well?'
"We-uh are-um…just-" May begins to stutter as she wriggles out of Drew's grasp.
"Just r-rehearsing for the play" Drew says, obviously trying to make it sound believable, which he was doing a horrible job at…making the moment more satisfactory for Kym.
"Look, just don't say anything" Drew asks the Kym, while trying to still avoid eye contact with brunette who was now fiddling with the hem of her ruby red "skirt". Her brown hair draped on her shoulders with a red Staryu clip. Her purple top falling over her shoulders, and her sapphire eyes cautiously eyeing Drew as he exits the room.
"Do I want to know?" Kym says, while stifling a giggle. A blush takes over May's pale face, making her pout and scrunch her eyebrows.
"Not a word Kym, no one word" With that last statement May exits the room and heads for the gym, Kym reluctantly following the embarrassed mermaid.

"Okay, so like we have everyone here right?" Lily asks, as she scrambles to gather the cast up and the Pokemon as well. Violet walks around writing down a few notes…yet again.
"Okay, all of the mermaids are here, but we're missing the pirates" She says as she looks around the Gym. A red-head, a brunette, and a blue-haired girl are sitting on the edge of the pool, with their feet dipped in. Kym and Brendan sitting on the sidelines obviously bored out of their minds. Kym had her arms crossed, and she was slumped down in her seat, Brendan had a face that basically said 'Why is this taking soooo long'
"Why is this taking so long?" Daisy shouts.
"Trust me I was thinking the same thing" Brendan says solemnly as he slumps further into his seat and subconsciously puts his arm on the back of the bench, but his arm didn't quite make contact with the back of the seat and slipped onto Kym's shoulder, causing the both of them to blush. Brendan smiles sheepishly and removes his hand from her shoulder, but before he could take it back, Kym smirks and grabs it, placing it around her shoulders, and leans onto Brendan's chest, crossing her arms in the process.
"Uh-" Brendan begins to say, but is interrupted when three guys appear in the doorway. One of them, having a blue bandana around his raven hair, with little X's on the side, and a grey puffy shirt with a black belt carrying a sword. His dark indigo pants tucked into his black boots, his chocolate eyes brimming with excitement. Another one of them was wearing a maroon shirt with a long brown, trench-like jacket and long, smoky grey pants with a sword in each hand. His onyx eyes scanning the gym, and stopping to focus on the blue-haired girl.
"Wow, you guys look like, the most drop dead gorgeous pirates ever!" Lily squeals with excitement as she runs up to them and snaps a few surprise shots with her camera.
"What did you expect?" The green haired boy says a smirk invading his face. A dark green and light brown vest hugging his torso, with the classic puffed out sleeves, and dark brown pants with folded boots. He reaches his hands up to his bangs and gives them a flick, but it was kind of difficult considering he had a red bandana tied around his head…an all too familiar red bandana….
"Drew! Get my bandana off of your head" May shouts as she places her hands on her hips.
"No," he says simply as he walks over to the edge of the pool, and crouches over to get eye level with May, she was sitting down after all, "besides don't you think it looks…sexy on me?" He asks flirtatiously, with a smirk on his face.
"Um…let me think…no!" May shouts once again. Then a small blue turtle Pokemon swims over to May, causing Drew to step back.
"Squirtle, squirt!"
"Don't get that little bubble-squirting Pokemon near me" He says cautiously as he remembers the last time he was near the baby starter Pokemon, leaving May giggling at the memory as well.
"Good job on the costumes Brendan" Lily says while turning over to Brendan who still has his arm wrapped around the young trainer, now this sight earned a few chuckles and giggles from everyone.
Brendan raises a hand as a thanks while trying to sustain a blush on his face.
"Alright now, we're going to be taking loads of pictures so everyone make sure you look okay" Daisy says before being but off by Violet.
"Because these pictures are going to be put all over Cerulean City and we like, can't have our actors looking bad…that would just be like, humiliating"
Misty sweatdrops and sighs, "leave it to my sisters to be considerate" she says sarcastically.
Then without warning the pool begins to rumble and slowly move upwards. Dawn, who has never seen the Cerulean City's battle field, a.k.a the Sensational Sisters' stage for their shows, swam over to Misty and clutched onto her arm.
"Um…Misty…what's happening?" Dawn asks, slightly freaked out by the moving pool.
"Dawn, chill, we're just changing the pool into a "stage"" Misty says calmly, after all she had seen it been done before thousands of times.
XoXoXoXoXoXoXo
Once the stage was set, everyone had climbed up to the top, and all the performers (Dawn. Misty, May, Drew, Ash, and Paul) were currently sitting on a small island like stand in the floating in the middle of the pool. Ash and Misty were sitting very close together, and truth be told, it was awkward yet…it felt right. Sure Ash has known Misty for a good 4 years and they were very close, but they were never this type of close, even though both of them hoped someday they'd be.
Now with May and Drew, May was sitting comfortably between Drew's legs, with his arms securely wrapped around her upper body, it was quite a cute scene actually, well at least to Misty and Dawn it was, considering that they kept on giggling non-stop, causing May to blush even more.
"One more giggle Dawn, and I'll send you and your little Piplup straight back to Sinnoh" May says angrily, this comment did not go unnoticed by Drew however.
"You know, I like it when you're angry" He says flirtatiously, causing May to become speechless, and turn her head the other way, avoiding eye contact that could make the situation a lot more awkward.
"Aren't May and Drew just the cutest?" Dawn asks, being her usually girly girl self, but this did not go well with Paul.
"Yes, I think that May and Drew, are like the cutest thing ever" Paul says, stressing a valley-girl accent, obviously just to annoy Dawn.
"Ha-ha very funny Paul" Dawn says sarcastically.
"Oh look, the little mermaid can be sarcastic, it's a miracle, usually you're all like Oh My God, look at those shoes, is my hair okay? Do you wanna like go shopping?" Paul says, imitating Dawn's girly-ness. (A/N: Ha, just imagine Paul doing that, sorry if he seems a bit OOC on this part)
"I should whack you upside the head for that…but I won't" Dawn says, as she glares at Paul before leaning back and supporting herself on her hands.
"Paul, get closer to Dawn, grab her waist or something" Violet says, or more like commands.
"What?" Dawn and Paul both shout.
"Well, you're going to have to like kiss in the play so might as well get comfortable with each other" Daisy says while examining her nails, not really paying attention to their reactions.
"We have to what?!?" Dawn and Paul simultaneously shout once again, a blush on both of their cheeks.
"Fine then if you don't want to kiss her then get close to Dawn, she doesn't have like cooties or anything" Violet says, while motioning Paul to put his arm around her waist. Paul who wasn't so jazzed about this whole situation reluctantly placed his arm on Dawn's waist. He could feel a tingling sensation as he placed his fingers on her soft, thin bare waist and he had to admit that Dawn did have a nice body, and he meant a nice body. Sure Paul had seen other girls before, but none of them were like Dawn, she was different…a good different.
"Great, now smile!" Lily shouts, while getting ready to take a picture with her blinding camera.
"Cut!" Misty shouts.
"Hey, you can't yell that, only I can. I'm like the director here" Daisy says as she crosses her arms.
"Besides, you can't cut a picture, now scoot together" Violet asks, completely ignoring Misty's outburst. It was obvious that those three really wanted this play to be a huge success.
"Now pretend like you love each other…well, it's not like you really have to pretend" Lily says slyly.
"Lil-" Misty begins to say, but is cut off by a sudden flash.
'Note to Self: Get that frickin' camera away form Lily'
"No buts of ifs Misty, we're gonna take this picture and you're all gonna like it…now smile!"
Yay, I'm finally done. So this chapter was just like a pick up chapter, nothing really important except for the fact that they have costumes now. :P Speaking of their costumes, I'm gonna be putting up pictures of Ash and Misty, May and Drew, and Dawn and Paul, together in their costumes, it's going to be up soon, so please check it out. Think of them as the pictures that Lily took for the flyers :D And I apologize if my stories tend to repeat each other, I just run out of ideas easily…which sucks for all u readers of my stories…:P I'll try and update soon, but the pics will be up before the next chapter, I promise :D
