All In
At the Marine Resort, a meeting for Master Rank explorers and rescuers was being held. The Master Rank Conference boasted the very best explorers and rescuers from around the land. The four best teams from Treasure Town had been transported there the day before the first day of the conference to set up their information stands and team rooms. Team Raider, Team AWD, Team Charm and a new Master Rank team named Team Petalfire had arrived at the same time. Team Petalfire had brought along their sub team Team Regret as an example of their networks within their own team. The Treasure Town teams had rooms in the same corridor, luckily, so that they could easily visit each other in their rooms. On the first day, all of the Master Rank teams and above had various meetings and lectures on team networks, team management, various dungeons that only Master Rank Teams could access and jobs that only Master Rank Teams could do. The first night, there was a special ball gala called "The One Thousand Nights of Jirachi".
During the dinner, Galahad the Gallade, the leader of Team Raider sat awkwardly between his two team-mates. He never did like these dances. His two team-mates were also a bit on edge. Ryan the Rhyperior kept glancing around the room in wonder, his gaze occasionally falling on the Team Charm girls. His other partner, Leilani the Roserade, was glancing worriedly at Team Petalfire. She was worried because it was their first conference and a few years ago, when Team Raider had first joined the Master Rank Conference, there was an altercation between their team and a senior Rescue Team. There weren't many Master Rank Rescue Teams at the conference this year, but you could never be too careful. Gazing at the ceiling in both boredom and nervous waiting, Galahad thought about Willow the Weavile and her team. Wait, why was he thinking about her?
All night staring at the ceiling
Counting for minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone
Galahad the Gallade and Willow the Weavile had been friends for about a year now. They used to be enemies before then but eventually grew tired of their fighting and arguing and made a truce for both of their teams. Eventually, after being forced together to explore a dungeon they were soon friends. When the dinner finally ended, the music started up and a few of the teams started dancing. Other teams chatted about missions and jobs they had recently undertaken. Team Petalfire and their sub team, Team Regret was dancing on the floor with Midnight the Umbreon and Labyrinth the Spiritomb whispering together. The other two, Autumn the Mismagius and Diamond the Sableye were holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes, off in their own little world. Meanwhile, Galahad and his team stood awkwardly near a table filled with snack food and a bowl filled with Pecha Berry juice. On the other side of the room, Team AWD was in the same predicament.
Team AWD was a very prideful team. Willow the Weavile and her team-mates Crowley the Abrok and Darren the Drapion were a force to be reckoned with. They also hated Team Charm with a vengeance. As the all-girls team walked by, swaying their hips in a seductive way to influence the two males on Team AWD, Willow glared icy daggers at them.
"Oh, boys~" The leader, Lyra called over to them and glanced back only to get the middle claw from Willow. Shocked, the three gasped at what she had done. Marching over to Team AWD, the girls put their hands on their hips and glared at the female Weavile.
"What is like, your problem?" Lyra shrieked at the Weavile. Folding her arms against her chest, Willow glared at the three girls.
"My problem is that you are trying to get my team-mates following you only to completely ignore the fact that they only have eyes for each other." The Weavile explained angrily, feeling her blood boil underneath her fur. It was true though, the Abrok was curled around the Drapion in a very intimate manor and the two were gazing into each other's eyes, lost in their own little world. Galahad was watching this argument with interest, but decided to walk over there to quell the argument before a fight were to break out.
But you know it's alright
I came to my senses
Letting go of my defences
"What! But, but all boys like me! All boys like us!" Lyra whined in confusion, her ears beginning to twitch in anger.
"Not Crowley and Darren, obviously." Willow said coldly, the temperature around her body dropping. Having had enough of the smart-mouthed Weavile, the Lopunny lunged at the Weavile and smashing a fist into Willow's face. It was then that Galahad jumped in to save his friend. He grabbed the Weavile by her shoulders, wincing at how cold she was and pulled her out of the way of the second incoming fist while Glade the Gardevior and Meredith the Medicham pulled their partner away.
"Are you okay, Willow?" He asked her quietly, gently brushing his hand across her already bruising eye. Wincing in pain, the Weavile glanced up to the Gallade and gave a firm nod.
There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time
Pulling the Team AWD leader over to where his team-mates were now sitting, the Weavile sat in the chair and let the Leilani the Roserade inspect her eye. Finally noticing their leader, Crowley slithered over to where Team Raider sat with their leader while Darren walked over hurriedly.
"Lady Weavile, are you all right?" "Lady Weavile, what happened?" The couple had learned the art of talking at the very same time, which both disturbed and impresses Galahad.
"While you two were off in your own world, I defended your honour of not being brainless fan boys of the Testosterone Bait, over there." Willow said quietly and quickly pointed behind her to where the all girl group were sitting. While Leilani ran to the kitchens to get ice, the Team AWD leader explained what had happened.
"We're sorry, Lady Weavile. We're team-mates, we're meant to look out for one another. We are really sorry we didn't notice sooner." Crowley said, bowing his head while Darren nodded.
"It's fine. Captain Airhead over there didn't know hat you two were an item." The Weavile said, brushing off their apology with a one-armed shrug.
And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
When Leilani came back with the ice, the Weavile quickly put it to her eye and sighed in relief. The two teams started talking about a recent job that both Galahad and Willow had been ambushed by the very same trap. Half an hour later, Crowley and Darren said they were going back to Team AWD's room to "do stuff" so Willow stated that she was going to be staying in Team Raider's room for the night. She, for one, did not want to walk in one her team-mates figuring out how male Pokemon mate. Leilani and Ryan decided to go and mingle for awhile which left Galahad and Willow sitting together, giggling about stuff ups in jobs and about other Master Rank teams. During that time, something happened. Galahad began to look at the Team AWD leader in a different light. It was as if someone had flicked a switch inside of his mind and heart. The Gallade couldn't explain it but he knew that the Weavile could feel it too.
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Nearby, Team Charm sat down to talk very loudly about what had just happened.
"So, what do you think about Willow?" The Gardevior, Glade, asked her leader. If anything, she was the one on Team Charm who had the most sense, the female Weavile thought with a lazy smirk.
"She's just jealous that we are so hot. She probably even hasn't had a boyfriend yet!" Lyra cackled hysterically, her team-mates dissolving into laughter themselves.
"I bet all the males in the room think that she's, like, a total ice queen. Better yet, ice bitch!" The Lopunny said once she calmed down a bit. Growling, the Weavile tightened her claws into a fist. Suddenly, a hand came down on her fist and gently squeezed. This surprised Willow so much that she loosened her claws and glanced up to whom was squeezing her hand. She found herself gazing into the eyes of a Gallade who was smiling softly. Leaning in close to the side of her face, Galahad felt the Weavile shiver at the close contact.
"Calm down, Willow. Don't let those girls get to you." He whispered, glancing behind her to lock gazes with the leader of Team Charm. What surprised the female Weavile even more was what the Gallade did next. He pressed a soft kiss to her cheek.
There's no taking back what we've got
Too strong, we've had each other's back for too long
There's no breaking up this time
And you know its okay, I came to my senses
Letting go of my defences
There's no way I'm giving up this time
Gasping in shock, Willow wondered what the Gallade was up to. Glancing to what he was looking at, she was looking at the shocked face of the leader of Team Charm. Now she knew what was going on. As he took her claws in his hands, Willow smirked up at him. Time to deliver some payback, Team AWD style!
"I think that the males in this room think that if I mate with them, I will eat them afterwards. I mean, do I look like an Ariados to you?" The Weavile said with a smirk as the two Pokemon stood up.
"We'll just have to prove them wrong then." Galahad said with a very evil smirk that Willow couldn't help but be proud of. Walking to the middle of the dance floor, hand in claw, the two happily grinned and smiled at the shocked faces around them. Facing each other, Galahad placed a hand on her hip and grabbed the other claw in his other hand. Willow placed a claw on his shoulder and gasped as Galahad drew her in close to his body.
"Gotta make it look real, right?" The Gallade whispered in her ear and kissed her cheek again. Feeling her face warm, Willow nodded and smirked back up at him.
After about three dances together on the floor, Leilani and Ryan finally spotted them on the dance floor.
"Pay up, Ryan." The Roserade said to the Rhyperior and held out a rose bush hand. Ryan grumbled and gave her 1000 Poke dollars.
"I'm going to go give Team Petalfire's share to them." Leilani said with a smile before leaving to look for the new Master Rank team. Meanwhile, Team Charm was still in a state of shock. Snapping out of it, Lyra stood up and marched right over to the Gallade and Weavile on the dance floor. Pulling the dancing couple apart, the Lopunny grabbed Willow's wrist in a firm grip.
"What do you think you're doing, bitch? Galahad is meant to be single so that he can fall in love with Glade!" Lyra screeched loudly, almost shattering both Willow and Galahad's eardrums. Sensing danger, Galahad grabbed the Loppuny by her shoulders and thrust her away from them.
"Leave us alone. You have no right to lay a claim on me for either yourself or your friend. Willow is my friend and I'll dance with her because she is my friend." The Gallade said darkly, a promise of pain on his breath. Pulling the surprised Weavile towards him yet again, the Lopunny stormed off, muttering darkly. As the current song slowed, Galahad wrapped his arms around the Weavile in an intimate embrace. They swayed to the music, talking about why Lyra acted the way she did. She was friendly to strangers, overly friendly towards male Pokemon and cold towards other female Pokemon. They knew that Team Petalfire didn't like them that much but everyone else was oblivious to Team Charm's hidden agenda.
And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
As the night came to a quick end, all of the teams quickly left for their rooms. Willow joined Team Raider in their room. All of the team rooms had two bunk beds except for Team Petalfire's room which had three bunk beds for their sub team. Ryan the Rhyperior took one of the bottom bunks, pouting about his lost money. Leilani took the bunk above him, grinning because of her winnings. Willow took the high bunk on the other bunk bed, sighing to herself. Galahad took the bottom bunk and lied down on his back.
"Goodnight, team." Galahad whispered into the darkness. It was something that he said every night before going to sleep and tonight was no exception. His two team-mates said goodnight out of habit and Willow murmured goodnight just because she wanted to get to sleep faster. As they all drifted off into sleep, they thought about many things but the last picture in Galahad and Willow's minds were each other.
I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it, yeah
I want it, I want it, I want it, yeah
Gasping for breath out of a horrible nightmare, Willow sat up and glanced under her bed only to see that Galahad wasn't there. Getting off the bed and walking down the hall Willow followed the soft footsteps she could hear. Finally arriving at a beautiful stone balcony, she spotted Galahad leaning against the stone edge, gazing out to the sea. Sensing that there was someone else with him, the Gallade turned around a beaconed her over.
"What are you doing here, Willow?" He asked her, placing a blade like arm around her shoulders.
"I had a nightmare and I noticed that you were out of bed, so I followed you here." The female Weavile explained, gazing up to the stars above. Chuckling, the Gallade pulled her against the side of his chest, tucking her head just under his chin.
And I'm all in, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in, I'm all in for life
And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
"You know Galahad; you're really a touchy feely guy, aren't ya?" She stated more than questioned, rolling her eyes.
"Listen Willow, I think that…" The Gallade started but was unsure that if he could answer his question.
"…We've grown closer? That you may actually like me?" The Weavile asked, finishing his train of thought.
"Er…yes." Galahad said looking even more nervous by the second.
"It's okay, really." She said after thinking it through. She gazed up at him with a smile before leaning up to his ear.
"Because I like you too." She whispered in his ear, kissing his cheek as she leant back down against his chest. Still looking nervous, but happy, the Gallade glanced at her worriedly.
"Don't worry. If we actually mate, I promise not to eat you." Willow said with a wicked smirk that made Galahad sigh and slap his face with his hand. Even in an emotional conversation, she still manages to crack jokes.
How does it look?
Do you guys like it? Have I missed anything? Please, feel free to leave a review. I really want to know what you guys think.
Try to guess why I have named these characters this way.
Thanks for reading!
