Mawile runs towards Chatot while carrying Cranidos and she says to him in an excited and happy tone, "Excuse me? Where can we sign up for the Parenting Management Class?" Chatot looks at them for a moment, "Hmm... seems like you are unsure that you will be fit parents. That's what this class is for."
Mawile replies, "In truth... Cranidos is the one unsure." Chatot nods, "I see... so let me tell you something. Do you love each other that must to handle raising a child together."
Mawile instantly nods, "With all my heart and soul!" She puts her hands on her chest and drops Cranidos. Chatot looks at Cranidos on the ground looking like he doesn't care, "Hmm... so Mr. Cranidos, are you willing to take this class or are just doing this for Mawile?"
Mawile turns to Cranidos, "So..." Cranidos scratches his head and replies, "I honestly am not sure if this is for me. I'm not a fatherly type I'm more like a risk taking type of guy." Chatot flies towards Cranidos, "That's not a sign of a good husband and father. That type of attitude will get your family in danger!"
Cranidos sighs, "That is the way of the ancient Pokémon." Mawile looks at him with a stern look, "Look! The time for risk taking is over! Sooner or later, we will have kids and you do not want to put them in danger, right?"
Cranidos groans, "This is stupid and boring! I crave action!" He gets up and runs off. Mawile looks at him with a disappointed look, "Oh... What should I do with him?" Chatot tells her, "Let him go. It's his decision." "Well! When I let him choose what he wants, he might party and accidentally kiss another girl." Mawile gasps and then cries, "I don't want to lose Cranidos! He could also die!" Chatot tries to calm her down, "Easy. The last thing you want to do and smother him."
Mawile cries even more, "I don't want to stay away from him! The reason I want to take this class is to be closer to him and want to know if he loves me enough to be with me forever and have a family and... I've been dreaming this ever since I loved him!" She cries even more.
Chatat doesn't know what to do, "I don't know what to tell you then. It seems like he doesn't want to be rushed. Do whatever you want!" He flies away. Mawile sniffles and shouts out, "Come back to me, Cranidos!" She runs off.
Cranidos walks around the campus a bit upset, "What's with her? It's like she doesn't believe me I love her! Why bring up marriage and parenting now? I want to have fun not raise kids!" Cranidos walks around and thinks about this, "Is she so into romance that she'll fantisize about marriage and stuff!
Croconaw notices him and goes up to him, "What's up, Cray?!" Cranidos looks at him and says, "You don't care." Croconaw chuckles, "You're up to that point, huh?" Cranidos gets curious, "What point?" Croconaw explains it to Cranidos, "Mawile wants to marry you so bad, right? Heh heh well... she might want to mate with you so badly that she's forcing you to sign up for that class."
Cranidos thinks for a moment to see if Croconaw is offensive or if he has a point. Although, why should he care, though? "So?" Croconaw was surprised by the response, "Wow! If you really want that then I don't know what to do then. Just saying this is how Mawile is and will always will be, be prepared for that stuff!"
Cranidos shrugs and says, "Whatevs." Croconaw pulls Cranidos towards the bushes, "Hey! Let's hang out! You and me, do some bro time without your girlfriend. She's always been involved in whatever you did. Can't hurt to do one thing without her, right?"
Cranidos just says, "Sure, I guess." Nonchalantly. Croconaw pops out of the bushes and looks around, "Good, she isn't here!" Cranidos pops out with him and tells him, "Why don't you want her with us?" Croconaw grabs the bushes and rips them off without effort, Cranidos looks at him strangely, "Are you ok?"
Croconaw then chews on the bushes, "Ok... I may or may not be still pissed off at Mawile." Cranidos is shocked to hear this but not surprised, "Wow! You really know how to keep your cool." Croconaw chuckles boldly, "That's because I am cool!"
Cranidos snickers, "Cool? Yeah right. Why would you still be pissed off?" Croconaw explains, "I was so pissed off that I could have destroyed her if I could. Then I would have been expelled." Cranidos crosses his arms, "I thought you changed and will be nice to her now."
Croconaw nods, "I'm not changing by personality but I won't pick on her again. Maybe harmless pranks from time to time for laughs but that's just how I am." Cranidos nods, "Ok, then Mawile could get back at you if you prank her. She doesn't take jokes like that lightly."
Croconaw chuckles, "I know... argh.. hold on." Croconaw suddenly punches Cranidos and slams him to a wall. "Sorry about that. I just need to let out my anger out a bit. You have no idea how hard it is to bottle this in." Cranidos groans in pain, "No problem... ow." Cranidos falls down and collaspe on the ground.
Croconaw helps him back up. "I'm glad you will help take that for me, bud. I- I can't. I'm a violent Pokémon but I can't let this out or I'm done." Cranidos tries to stand without Croconaw helping him and it's difficult to, "I can see... I would help but I also want to know if you won't betray us when you are better."
Croconaw laughs, "I don't hate Mawile anymore so I don't have a reason to. She's just so obsessed with romance that it's funny." "What?" Said a familiar voice, the two Pokémon turns around and it was Mawile.
Croconaw explains, "I mean you all like, 'Oh Cranidos! Be with me forever! Hold me tight and say that you love me!' It's true, though!" Mawile tears up, "You're laughing at my feelings! You're saying it's like a joke! It's not! It's true love and you're mocking it!"
Cranidos walks up to her but she pushed him away, "And you believed what he said? Why? What he said was offensive!" Croconaw scoffs, "Learn to take a joke! It's true that you can't take a jokes lightly. Everyone messes around with each other."
Mawile cries more, "You're doing it behind my back! Friends don't do that and nor do boyfriends!" She grabs a big rock and chucks it at Croconaw and runs off. Cranidos sighs, "Way to go!" Croconaw roars angrily, "I had it! I'm telling Dean Wigglytuff!" Croconaw walks off but Cranidos piles on him, "Get off of me!"
Cranidos roars back at him, "No! You said you won't tell but you are betraying us!" Croconaw pushes him off, "This what you need to see! She's too sensitive! Would you act like that if it was you?" Cranidos shakes his head, "No. Would you?
Croconaw scoffs, "Hells no! I would be like, that all you got? You have to do better than that to offend me, fool!" Cranidos facepalms, "This is what's wrong with you, you have no sense of sympathy for another." Croconaw scratches his head, "What's that?"
Cranidos crosses his arms, "Mawile says take it how that person would feel that has been or would be offended given by their personality. Don't discriminate others by how they feel." Croconaw scratches his head, "So... share the feeling with the person you offended?"
Cranidos nods, "Yep. And I think you went too far. I sort of did to. Let's go apologize, ok?" Croconaw doesn't reply... Cranidos tries to see what he's doing, "Err... what's up with you?"
Croconaw shushes him, "I'm trying to see if it works. I guess you're right. I don't have a sense of sympathy. Cranidos nods, "I don't either but I try for her. I don't like seeing her cry so please go apologize."
Croconaw looks at his tail and gets a flashback... Back when he's a Totodile and way before Cranidos has met Mawile. "Hi there!" Says a friendly Mawile, Totodile looks at her and replies, "Oh, hey." She looks over at him, "What are you doing?" Totodile has his tail in the water at a lake, "I'm trying to fish... I'm not having any luck."
Mawile puts a finger on her mouth and says, "Oh... maybe I can help." She uses her jaws and fishes out a magikarp, Totodile was estatic and dances around, "You are amazing! I couldn't catch anything but you did it no problem!"
Mawile blushes and smiles, "Thank you! What are you fishing for? Are you going to eat that Magikarp?" Totodile shakes his head, "I'm trying to catch one so I could make it evolve so I can ride it. It's a really fun activity!"
Mawile holds up the Magikarp, "Let's do it! I'll help you!" Totodile dances happily, "You will? Thank you!" Back to the present... Croconaw tears up, "What happened?" Cranidos sees him cry, "What's wrong?" Croconaw was reminded what happened, "Oh yeah... she was being pushy at being a couple and I couldn't take it anymore and left her. I also cheated on her so I could hurt her for doing that. What happened?! We were having fun fishing!"
Cranidos is puzzled, "What? Are you talking about when you were dating Mawile?" Croconaw nods, "We used to have so much fun but I got annoyed... I think it was to do that we never got a chance to evolve a Magikarp. I let it get ahold of me!"
Croconaw runs towards a lake and looks at the reflection and sees him as a smiling Totodile, he instantly tears up, "I'm sorry." Cranidos sees him, "Are you ok?" Croconaw turns to him, "Let's apologize to Mawile!" Cranidos smiles and they run off to the girls dorm.
Carrie sees them, "What are you think you're doing?" Croconaw tells her, "Can you please get Mawile for us?" Carrie yells at him, "Are you crazy?! She told me that you were the one that made fun of her!" Croconaw tears up, "I know! I was too stupid and wasn't thinking right!"
Carrie knows he's being sincere and a lot more sensitive, "Wow... I never knew this side of you. Ok! You can come in to our dorm room but please keep it quiet."
Croconaw nods, "Thank you!" Croconaw hugs her and she blushes a bit, "Just go, please." The go inside and see Mawile sobbing in her pillow.
Cranidos is the first to talk to her, "Hey, darling. Are you ok?" Mawile replies with sadness, "No... how could you Cranidos? Why did you side with Croconaw?" Croconaw says quietly, "I was stupid to say the things I did." Mawile turns to him, "Are you really or are you saying that so you could still be the cool one?"
Croconaw shakes his head, "I'm not cool. I shouldn't say those things to you considering you are sensitive and know how you would feel." Croconaw looks at his tail, I remembered when you helped me fished out that Magikarp. It made me so happy."
Mawile looks at him and feels a bit better, "You remembered that?" Croconaw nods, "I'm sorry!" Croconaw hugs Mawile, "I forgive you, Croconaw." Croconaw is surprised, "Really?" Mawile nods, "I've saved this pic of you for a reason." She holds out a pic of Croconaw as a Totodile being so happy and Mawile together. "I missed you like this."
Croconaw nods, "I know. I can't be that way again because it would so silly with me evolved and such." Mawile nods, "I understand. Just be yourself, then. That goes for you too, Cranidos." Cranidos nods, "Ok."
They both hug each other, "Oh, Cranidos! If only you would take that class with me!" Croconaw snickers, "I told you that you act like that." Mawile looks at Croconaw, "I guess so. I guess I overreacted and thought you were mocking my feelings."
Croconaw smiles, "I just think it's funny. That's it. I'm aware how you feel but I make fun of everybody." Mawile smiles back, "You always did. Ok. I can't really tell if you are just playing or if you are actually trying to hurt my feelings."
Croconaw looks at his tail again, "I want you to get a sense of humor and laugh at yourself." Mawile stops hugging and then whispers something to Cranidos, "Well! You look like a pirate with your tail! Arr! You fishing for treasure?!"
Croconaw laughs, "Sensitive flytrap has a sense of humor? I never thought I see the day!" Mawile gets ready to charge at him, "Flytrap, huh? Cranidos... back me up!" Cranidos gets ready, too "Alright!"
They charge at him and dogpile him, "Who's the flytrap now?" Croconaw roars in a playful tone, "You two are!" He gets up and hugs them tightly, "I'm so lame!" Carrie sees the three, "Aw... look at the softy Croconaw..."
Croconaw gets embarrassed, "I, err..." Carrie flies to them, "You're so much better than the jerk Croconaw." This interested Croconaw, "OK!" He dances around happily like he used to and Carrie laughs, "You're so silly!" Croconaw grabs her hand and says, "Let's go somewhere!"
Carrie nods and follows Croconaw to where he wants them to go. Mawile giggles, "Maybe he's going to find someone to love now." Cranidos laughs, "At least he isn't a jerkwad anymore!" Mawile stares at Cranidos passionately. Cranidos grabs her hand and takes her outside, "I'll give the class a try after all."
Mawile gasps happily, "You really mean it?" Cranidos didn't say anything and drags her to the class, "Hey there Chatot! Do we still have time to sign up?" Chatot shakes his head, "It's full now, sorry." Mawile looks so disappointed, "I guess that ok, then."
Cranidos holds her hand tighter, looks into her eyes and says, "I know we'll still be great parents. It'll be great!" Mawile rubs herself again Cranidos happily, "That means we'll be together forever after all! Yahoo!"
They say goodbye to Chatot and they leave. Mawile takes Cranidos to the edge the cliff and they sit down together and look at the full moon. "It's so beautiful, Cranidos!" Cranidos nods, "And so are you!" Mawile lays her head on Cranidos' chest and sighs happily.
A Noctowl flies across the moon and it looks cool as it looked like a siluette. Mawile points at it, "Oh! look at the Noctowl! Isn't that cool?" Cranidos nods, "I guess."
They notices that it was coming for them, Mawile looks at it and says to Cranidos, "I wonder why it's coming for us?" Noctowl flies in front of them and blocks the moon. Mawile politely asks it, "Excuse me... but do you mind that if you get out of the view of the moon? Me and my boyfriend are having a moment."
Noctowl doesn't say anything and tilts his head, Mawile asks again, "Please? Why are you looking at us like that." Noctowl finally responds, "What is that thing?" Mawile tries to see what he was talking about, "Can you explain, please?"
Noctowl elaborates, "The dino thing." Cranidos gets a bit offended, "I'm not a thing." Mawile says to Noctowl, "That's my boyfriend." Noctowl tilts his head, "I haven't seen a Pokémon like this before." Cranidos explains, "I'm an ancient Pokémon, been around for millions of years. There's only a few of us left."
Noctowl tilts his head to the other side, "So it's a primitive being, then. Such an underdevoloped Pokémon." Cranidos get angry at this Noctowl, "What?! Why I outta..." Noctowl nods, "Yep! By the way... you two are incompatible for mating."
Cranidos and Mawile both shouts out, "What?!" Noctowl looks at the two and says, "You're DNA is not compatible in creating a child, I recommend adoption. Oh wait... that's a human thing."
Mawile feels heartbroken by this because she wanted to have kids with Cranidos. Cranidos yells at Noctowl, "Look what you did!" Noctowl sees this and says, "I don't make up this stuff. Maybe if you tried hard enough, you might have a slight chance at creating an offspring."
Mawile gets determined, gets up and grabs Cranidos' claws, "Come on! Let's get away from this non believer!" They leave the Noctowl as he shouts, "It's fact! I don't even know if it's real! Wow... that sounded stupid."
So... what will happen next? Actually, some interesting ideas would be cool! Post them if you want!
