Deoxys Hunter Squad
A/N: Me- Double Digits'! And you know what that means…filler!
Renee- It's not filler if important things happen, =glares= …Furyfur.
Me- I wouldn't call yourself declaring "Everything is about me" to be of any real importance, =glares= …Renee.
Renee- That's not the only thing that happens, =glares= …Furyfur.
Barry- Both of you guys are going to drive me insane with your constant clichés, =glares= …you two.
Lucas- You don't look cool while imitating girls, =glares= …annoying little brother.
Disu- Um…Umm…Darn! Disu can't think of anything to say…Let's begin, okay…?
~Deoxys Hunter Squad~
"…That's odd," Lucas said to himself, gazing into the darkness only lightened by the city's bright shade of neon.
"What's odd?" Renee asked, throwing sticks into the fire.
"Doesn't something seem different to you, Renee?"
Renee thought for a second. "The atmosphere is finally lighter, if that's what you mean. I can finally relax and hear the sounds of Pokemon…Creepy, but relaxing."
"No, I mean a physical difference."
"Yeah, that's basically all there is in the Reverse World. Physical stuff," Barry said, bored out of his wits. He was twirling an acorn in his fingers, laying on his side.
"There!" Lucas said loudly, pointing to him. "Right there!"
Barry's eyes widened as he sat up and searched his body for anything weird. "What? What?"
"No, I mean what you said!" Lucas said quickly.
Barry relaxed and scratched his head. "Uh…Physical stuff?"
"No, before that."
"That's all there is?"
"No," Lucas seethed, impatient to prove his point. "After that!"
"The Reverse World…?" he said weakly, pressured by this test of wits.
"Yeah!" Lucas said.
Renee thought for a second. "I don't see your point," she said after a second.
"Put what Barry said together with what Renee said!"
Renee looked thoughtful. "Um…The atmosphere is finally lighter in the Reverse World?"
"No!" Lucas said, growing angry, determined to get it through their thick skulls. "After that!"
"The sounds of Pokemon in the Reverse World," Disu spoke up, still spacing out and saw no point in the conversation. He was completely absorbed in a blue book with no title on the cover and no words on the pages, as if he could see something the rest of them couldn't.
"Exactly!"
"You could've just told us that sooner…" Barry growled.
"And what's wrong with that sentence?" Lucas inquired.
Renee and Barry looked lost in thought.
"…We don't know," they said in unison.
Lucas slapped his forehead with his hand. "Don't you get it?"
"There are no Pokemon sounds in the Reverse World," Disu said distractedly, filling the gaps. "Because there are no Pokemon."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…Oh!" Renee popped in at last."So that means…No, I don't get it."
"Maybe we're not in the Reverse World?" Barry wondered.
"Excellent!" Lucas said, pleased with Barry. "But the gravity is still all wrong, correct?"
"That just makes me even more confused."
"So we are in the Reverse World, but we are not in the Reverse World," Disu said without ever taking his nose out of the book. The way he made everything sound so simple, like he had known all the answers before the conversation even started, angered Barry.
"I still don't get it!" he said, frustrated.
"Don't worry," Lucas said. "That's as far as I've gotten, too."
"…What?" Renee spoke up. "Can someone please explain this to me in simpler language? English, preferably?"
Lucas thought about it. "Well, I don't think there's a simpler way to-"
"The dimension we are in is the Reverse World," Disu said, tearing himself away from the nameless book to stare at Renee. "but it's starting to adapt qualities of our dimension."
"…I think I get it," Renee said. "So, this is kind of what would happen if the Reverse World and our dimension combined?"
"Curious…" Lucas muttered. "…I hadn't thought of that."
"But…It can't be true, can it?" Renee asked. "Disu, this has never happened before, did it?"
"The only way this could happen is if a strong rift in one of the intersecting dimensions forces it closer to another."
"Um…Seen any strong rifts in the Reverse World lately?"
"Well, there's always the matter of how we got here," Lucas said, ignoring Barry's joke. "That's what a rift is. A problem."
"So, it's a problem if we suddenly appear in the Reverse World…?" Renee guessed.
Lucas smiled. "It's a problem if anyone can enter another dimension. That'd cause a bit of problems."
"But…that can't be a big problem, can it? Not enough to make the Reverse World…move?"
"No, not big enough," Disu informed.
"So what could it be?" Barry asked.
All four of them thought for a while silently. The silence shattered when Renee gasped and pointed toward the way they had entered Jubilife.
"A Pokemon! A Pokemon!"
"So what?" Barry said grumpily. "Just a little Buneary."
Renee was way too excited to listen. She practically jumped into Lucas's arms at the sight of the brown bunny with the creamy fur.
"Lucas, Lucas! Catch it for me, catch it for me!"
"I can't catch it for you," Lucas said, trying to push her away. "Catch it yourself! You're a trainer!"
"But Lucas!" Renee protested. "I don't have any of those little red-and-white things left!"
"…Pokeballs?"
"Yeah! Those things!"
"You ran out?" Lucas asked. "Come on, Renee, be more resourceful! You didn't pay enough attention to how many Pokeballs you had the whole time we were here? And you should be able to remember their names by now!"
"Excuse me for having other things on my mind," Renee muttered. She turned to Barry. "Barry Onii-chan? Will you catch it for me?"
"Way to go, dude!" Lucas said, patting him on the back. "Now you're the annoying older brother!"
Barry ignored him, but grinned at his new nickname. "I'm outta Pokeballs too, sweetie."
"I want it!" Renee shouted like a child. "I want it! I want it! Barry, Barry! I want it!"
"Okay, okay! I'll go get some more, be back in a flash!" And with that, Barry had evaporated into thin air, leaving Lucas the only punching bag in sight for Renee's badgering.
"Lucas, Lucas!"
"I know, I know. You want it."
"I really, really want it!" Renee squealed. "Look at it, it's so fluffy and such a cute color! And it's eating berries off the ground with its tiny little mouth, and…Lucas! I want it!"
"My goodness, where's the off button on this thing?"
"Eek! Look at its adorable little fluffy nose…I want it, want it, I want it!"
Renee seemed to have been lost in some sort of rabbit-related trance, still gripping onto Lucas as hard as she could. Disu stared at them with the tip of his finger in his mouth, interested.
"D…Does it have to be that particular one? I mean, they run away a lot…As most Pokemon do…You should be prepared to-"
"Of course!" Renee interjected, determination peaking from absolutely nowhere. "It has to be this one that's over there! If it runs away, I'll…I'll…"
"You'll what?" Lucas demanded, horrified.
"I'll cry and I'll scream and I won't stop! It'll be all your fault!"
"Wh…What? Women are insane…"
"There are two things you should know about women, Lucas," Renee snapped, hands on her hips. "The first is that they'll do anything to protect what they love. Even commit murder. Happens all the time."
"It's official. I'm scared."
"The second is that when they want something, you better freaking give it to them."
"Barry!" Lucas shouted. "Where the hell are you?"
"Hiya!" Barry said, appearing out of nowhere. He just gave a new definition to "be back in a flash." "Got the Pokeballs! Since none of us have any left, I figured I'd get thirty."
"How long have you been standing there?"
"Just got here."
"…How did you…? Never mind."
"Come on, Lucas, is it really that hard to believe that everyone here can run faster than you? Besides, I take track."
"And you're not exactly known for being the patient one of the group, are you?"
"Speaking of impatience, give me the Pokeball!" Renee snapped. "I swear, if it gets away, I'll behead both of you!"
Barry muttered something under his breath and place his backpack on the floor. Lucas gasped when he unzipped it.
"Where'd you get the money for thirty?"
"Renee," Barry said without taking notice of his surprise.
"Renee's ten years old! Does she have a job?"
Barry shrugged. "Girls have their ways, I suppose…"
"Chimchar!" Renee shouted. Chimchar appeared from the Pokeball, greeting her. "Right! Now…What do I do?"
Lucas resisted the urge to facepalm. "Right…this is your first time actually catching a Pokemon, isn't it? Just battle it until it faints, then throw the Pokeball at it. Simple."
"Right!" Renee said again. "So…so…Chimchar, um…Flame Wheel!"
Disu was still sucking absentmindedly on this tip of his fingernail, looking innocent. Lucas practically felt the boy's brain moving.
"So…Tell me. Where did Renee get the money…? Oh wait, I know."
Barry smiled. "Really? What do you think?"
"Prostitution," Lucas said simply. Barry laughed.
"I thought you'd say that. But no, that's not it!"
"Really?" Lucas asked. "Because there was that one older dude who went on and on about how he was gonna sleep with her. Oh well, I must've been mistaken…"
Barry's smile disappeared. "What?"
Lucas was the one smiling now. "You know, the guy she got the Koffing from. If she lost, she had to sleep with every guy in their little gang. Five hundred people, if I had to guess. They were huge, too. They'd break her in a minute."
Barry's cheeks turned pink. "I…wait…she made a bet? And if she lost…she had to sleep with a whole flippin' gang?"
"Pretty much."
Barry's entire face was red now. He was obviously thinking something very dirty, unbeknownst to Renee, who was still fighting the Buneary with everything she had. "I…but…she's a new trainer! She couldn't win against…I mean…She makes those kinds of bets with strangers, but not with us?"
"How did I know you were thinking that?" Lucas teased. Disu was sincerely interested now. "Don't worry, she won, after all."
"Onii-chan will not allow this!" Barry stormed. "Unacceptable! That's…so dangerous! One little slip-up and she would…she would…Damn!" Barry buried his face in his hands, as if he couldn't handle blushing so much. "Stop making me think perverted things!"
"I'm not making you think perverted things, you're just thinking them!"
"But you won't let me stop thinking them!"
"But you don't want to stop thinking them!"
"But Renee'll hit me if I don't stop!" Barry cried hopelessly.
"Why will Master hit you?" Disu asked, intruding into the conversation.
Barry tried to seem reasonable. "Well…If I think about Renee naked or sex or something like that, Renee can tell, and she doesn't like me thinking about things like that so she'll hit me."
"Why?"
"Because if I continue with these thoughts…" Barry said, completely serious. "...my head will explode. So I can't think about it."
"Disu sees."
"You understand?" Lucas asked, amazed.
Disu nodded. "Disu sometimes thinks about these things as well."
The three of them froze. Disu had perverted thoughts as well…?
"I'm…astonished."
"Onii-chan will not allow this…" Barry mumbled again, looking away. His growling was so low-pitched, it was impossible to make out what he was saying. "If anyone's gonna…it's not gonna be…it will definitely…I have to…"
"Lucas!" Renee sounded out of nowhere, breaking the mood. "It fainted, now what do I do?"
"Throw a Pokeball."
Renee picked up a Pokeball and stared at it. "Um…Go!" she said quietly, tossing it on the Buneary. The Buneary was engulfed in a red light and disappeared. It was quiet.
"…"
"…Did I catch it?" Renee asked, looking the most hopeful anyone had ever seen her. "Did I catch it?"
Lucas smiled. "Congratulations, you caught Buneary!"
Renee jumped in the air. "Yeeaaah! It's mine, all mine!"
Disu smiled. God knew what he was thinking about.
Renee ran up to Barry, clutching the Pokeball. "Barry, Barry!"
Barry grabbed her in a giant bear hug. "Renee, I've been waiting since grade school! You've finally admitted to being a Pokemon trainer at heart!"
Renee hugged him back, almost crying. "Did I do good? Did I?"
"Of course you did!" both Lucas and Barry sounded at the same time.
"Renee, we need to talk," Barry said unexpectedly.
Renee looked at him questioningly. "About what, Barry?"
"You made a bet with a gang guy? And you had to have sex with him if you lost?"
Renee looked annoyed all of a sudden. "Lucas told you?"
"Sorry," Lucas spoke up. Disu's eyes were locked on the scene.
Renee shrugged, smiling. "I wasn't going to tell you, since you'd die if I did."
Disu's eyes widened. "Eh?"
"You see, Disu," Renee covered up quickly. "Every person has a meter attached to their heart, and when they think of things they're not supposed to, the meter rates it from one to ten. But if you think about those things too much, the meter can't rate it anymore. So if the meter stops working, I'll notice and then I'll hit you. Understand?"
Disu stared at her, astonished at this discovery. "Disu sees! That explains lots of things!"
Lucas smiled. "This goes against what Barry said, though."
"But Barry is a liar," Disu said, smiling.
"The point is, Renee, do you have any idea how worried I would have been if I had known?"
Renee batted her eyelashes. "That's why I didn't tell you. Because you'd be worried, Onii-chan."
Barry stared at her, oblivious to her flirting, or maybe just ignoring it. "But Renee, I'm gonna be your first!"
Lucas's hand slapped his forehead and he laughed. "Oooh! Barry, you dog!"
Renee shook her head. "I see you've been thinking too much, Barry."
"Disu sees, too!"
"Yeah, way to make it so obvious even Disu can see it. All the pedophiles approve."
"No, really!" Barry persisted. "Renee has to be my first!"
Renee continued shaking her head.
But Barry was too fired up to accept that. "Renee, I'm sick of this! Decide right now! Which one of us?"
Renee stopped shaking her head. "Which one?"
"This love triangle's killing me! Just choose! Who do you like?"
"I-I didn't notice any love triangle!" she said, suddenly nervous.
"Neither did Disu!" Disu said, panicking.
"…You didn't?"
"You guys like me?" Renee said, sweating. "I…I had no idea! I mean…Who? What? Wait, I'm confused all of a sudden!"
"Well…" Barry said slowly. "…I'm not sure where this leaves us."
"H…How about you guys compete?" Renee suggested.
Lucas frowned. "Well, even if we do, what about that Saku-"
"I have a fist that is perfectly capable of shoving itself down your throat, remember?"
"What?" Renee said, interested in her fan club all of a sudden. "What did Lucas just say?"
Barry shook his head. "Nothing! Nothing!"
"…Kikuchi Sakura," Lucas finished, grinning.
"Don't say that name!" Barry shouted, red in the face.
"Ooh!" Renee shouted. "Mr. Sakura? Oh, he's so cute and cool! Yeah, if you're gonna fight over me, he has to be here too!"
"If he's here," Disu spoke up, looking sick. "Disu doesn't wanna be here anymore."
"But it'll only be complete if you're here, too, Disu!" Renee said, looking pleased. "I want everyone here! I want everyone to fight over me!"
"Don't forget, Disu or no Disu, I'll win you over, Renee!" Barry shouted, fired up.
"I love this!" Renee said with delight. "A new Pokemon, and every guy I've ever met likes me!"
"Enough of this," Lucas muttered. "We're not gonna fight over a girl…And besides, we'd all lose to Disu, anyway."
"Maybe you would, but I'd be first!"
Renee tilted her head. "Well, here are the current standings: Disu is probably first place, and…Lucas is last."
"Thank you ever so much," Lucas said dully.
"And me? Me?"
"Probably right after Mr. Sakura," Renee told him after some thought.
"Okay. I'm gonna go hide in a corner now."
"Have fun!"
~Deoxys Hunter Squad~
"People! People!"
"What?" Lucas asked.
"People!" Renee said again, looking pale.
"I don't get it. What's the joke?"
"People!" she forced out. She seemed to have trouble standing, and tears were streaming down her face.
"What about people? With it with the goddamn riddles and tell us what's going on!"
"There are…people!"
Lucas stood up. "Well…Let's go see what's bugging Renee. After you, Onii-chan?"
Barry didn't budge. He had found himself a nice little corner to go and hug his knees, refusing to talk to anyone.
"Quit sulking, it won't make her like you any more than she already does."
"Shut up…Third place…Third place is…horrible…"
"I don't see what the big problem is," Lucas said, adjusting his backpack.
Barry whirled around. "The problem is, I don't want Renee to have sex with Disu!"
"Just relax, both of you are only ten, anyway…"
"People! People!" Renee said angrily. "Lucas! Lucas! There are…"
Lucas grabbed Barry by his collar and started to drag him towards the city. "Let's go, buddy. She won't stop freaking out until we do."
"But I wanna stay here…"
"Stop being an idiot. You won't ever win any points with her if act like you…"
Barry looked at him, his eyes cloudy. "If I what?"
"…Oh my god. Renee was right."
"…Right about what…?"
"P…People."
"Not you, too!"
"No, Barry, there are…humans."
Renee had been right after all. The city was alive again, humans coming and going through buildings as they had been before.
Renee ran forward. "I'm gonna go find Mr. Sakura, bye!"
"Wait! Renee! We have to figure out…"
But Renee was gone, evaporated in the air as Barry had. Disu followed her, obviously interested in meeting Sakura. And that sent a spark off in Lucas's brain.
"Disu shouldn't know who Sakura is…"
"Well, the kid's creepy…"
"But still, when did he ever meet him? And why does he hate him…? I think we have to figure it out, Barry."
"Why? I don't wanna."
"You'll be able to get your revenge."
"Let's go!"
~Deoxys Hunter Squad~
Renee's first place to stop was the contest hall. She felt strange running through the city in her kimono, but that was the last thing on her mind. She could finally see Mr. Sakura again, and ask him if he noticed anything weird. The contest hall was empty, but it was obvious that the current contest was not cancelled. The advertisements and such that were all hanging up were still there, and all the flashy lights were still on. But it was deserted. Except for Mr. Sakura.
He grinned at her with intense mint-colored eyes. "Harmony."
"Sakura…" she answered slowly, as if greeting him.
He held out a hand to her. "You have questions, no? Come. Let's take a walk."
"I…I'll look weird," she blurted stupidly, indicating her purple kimono.
Sakura looked at her soothingly, smiling as if pitying her. His hand was still held out. "You have no reason to take notice of anyone but me."
Renee hesitated, then took his hand. To her surprise, he pulled her forward and she met his embrace.
"This is the safest place you can be."
"R…Really?" she spluttered, blushing.
"Do you feel threatened?"
"I…I suppose," she said slowly. "I think any person would feel threatened by you, Mr. Sakura…"
"Why do you think that, Harmony?" Renee could feel his smile looking down on her. "That's cold. It hurts."
"Don't make fun of me…" she persisted. "It's true. Something weird happened right after you said something to me."
"Ah, forgive me. It was a shame we couldn't finish our battle. But perhaps some time other than now. Now, what was that 'weird thing?'"
"Well…We were sucked into the Reverse World."
She was absolutely positive he was smiling now, even if he was still holding her in a position where she couldn't see him. He was definitely smiling.
"Interesting. That would explain why we're all here."
"Are we still in the Reverse World?" she asked, still fighting his grip. At the same time, she was reluctant to escape it.
"'Still' is the wrong wording. We were not in the Reverse World before. You have to remember, Harmony, there's a difference between 'we' and 'I.' But we are currently in the Reverse World."
"So, you…were still in our dimension."
"Yes, I was."
"What happened to everyone while I was gone?"
"They didn't notice."
"Th…They didn't?"
Sakura laughed. He let her out of his hold so they could stare eye-to-eye. As expected, he was smiling his cool smile. "We can't notice things like that as humans, Harmony. It wasn't as if you simply disappeared, you were sent to another dimension with your friends. But only your friends. The rest of us…simply stayed there. Time was frozen, so no one noticed what happened."
"Then why do you know?" I muttered, horrified of what he will do now that there was a difference between "Renee's friends" and "Kikuchi Sakura."
"Again, the wrong wording," he said, grinning as his eyes stared lovingly at her. She stared transfixed back at him. "But never mind, let's go for a walk."
"But…I still don't understand!"
He looked at her simply, his smile gone. He suddenly let out a strange aura. Renee decided it would be best to let it go.
"If I told you everything you wanted to know…" he said, forcing a fake smile that still reflected his normal hospitality. "…I'd be rather sad."
"…Why?"
"I may not look it," he said, referring to his six or seven females that always followed him around constantly. "but I'm rather lonely."
Renee couldn't breathe. There was no air in here.
"So, I won't risk losing you," he finished simply.
"I…don't know what to say," she said stupidly. "But…thank you?"
"Is that a question?" he said smiling. "Or sarcasm?"
"I could ask the same for you, actually…"
His smile became real again. "You truly are special, yet strange."
"Do you know Disu?" she forced out all of a sudden. "When I say his name, you smile and claim to not know him, but he's one of my friends who looks a little like you! You said only my friends and I went to the Reverse World, right? Well, he went too, so you must know him!"
Sakura looked like he didn't know how to react for a fraction of a second, but then his expression was back to normal. "Disu is a name?"
"Um…Well, a nickname."
He laughed. "How cute. All this time, I just thought you were speaking nonsense. No, I'm afraid I don't know anyone by that name."
"…Oh. Well, he seems to know you."
"Eh…?" He looked like he wasn't sure of the situation once again.
"Yes, I mentioned your name and he seemed like he didn't like you! He said…He said that if you were here, he would leave!"
Sakura looked bitter. "Eh…And this is a child, correct?"
"…No. He's older than me, actually."
"Ah…"
He went silent for a second, and that second ended up pulling out a lot longer than it should have. He seemed deep in thought.
"…H…Huh," Renee muttered, feeling mean for bringing it up. Maybe Sakura was even lonelier than she thought.
He looked at her. "Do you have somewhere to be?"
"No," she said at once.
"Neither do I."
It went silent again. It crossed Renee's mind to say something that would encourage this poor boy to speak again, but it seemed hopeless. He seemed like he was in pain, and he was staring at the ground. She took a deep breath, but before she could say anything:
"You ditched your friends to come here, didn't you?"
She stood astonished for a second, then spluttered, "Th-That's…not the right wording!"
He smiled at her. "It is time for us to leave."
Renee frowned. "Wh…Why?"
Sakura looked at her with those eyes once more. In all the short time Renee had known him, he never had looked so sad, even with that smile.
Barry and Lucas burst through the door at that exact moment, causing Renee to jump. But Sakura looked as if he were expecting her.
Barry grinned. "Ducky! Holy crap! You have no idea how much I missed you!"
"I sense hatred in your voice," he responded quietly.
"Which would explain a lot, because you better get your dirty ape hands off my girl or you won't need to worry about getting your hands off anything anymore!"
"Was that a threat?" Lucas asked. "It seemed more like a fail to me."
Renee looked at them sadly. "Wh…Where's Disu?"
"He wasn't with you?" Lucas asked.
"No…"
"Great, first we have a pervert fondling my first, now we have a missing loser on our hands," Barry muttered. "On top of that, I'm in third place! I hate today! Today sucks! You better get out of here now, Ducky, before I run you out!"
Renee bit her lip. "Barry! Just…Leave my friends along for once!"
Sakura didn't move. This obviously wasn't the correct atmosphere for him.
"You know what your problem is?" Barry shouted. "You can never stay next to me for a second, can you?"
"And you know what your problem is?" Renee rebounded. "You got so used to me by your side in kinder! Now I'm grown up, and you still think I can't be let out on my own!"
"You're only ten!"
"So are you!"
"But I'm not the problem!"
"Yes you are, you're the only problem here!"
"I give up!" Lucas shouted. "Nobody can control you two!"
"Please stop this!" Sakura shouted, eyes quivering. "It isn't right for friends to fight!"
Silence filled the room at once. Renee was obviously in no condition to object, and Barry didn't want to say anything if Renee didn't. Lucas was just plain horrified.
"…Mr. Sakura," Renee said after a long pause. "I'll see you again, right?"
Sakura looked like he might be sick. He averted his eyes from her, refrained from answering, and walked out of the contest hall.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"Let's look for Disu," Lucas said, breaking the silence.
"Yeah."
"I'm sorry," Barry sighed, staring at his feet.
"I'm sorry, too," Renee mumbled.
"What does this mean?" he asked her, looking up. "I don't get it, Renee, can someone just explain this to me?"
"I don't get it either," Lucas muttered.
"You know what I do when I don't get something?" Renee said, determined.
"What?" they both said.
"I go shopping! And since my clothes are nowhere to be found, that's exactly where we're gonna go!"
"Ah crap…How did I know you would say that?"
~Deoxys Hunter Squad~
"'Kay…Whaddaya think?"
"Isn't the skirt a little…short?" Lucas muttered.
"Nonsense," Barry laughed.
"Yeah," Renee said. "It's not that short. My school uniform is worse than this."
"What school do you go to?"
"How cute, Lucas wants to enroll now," Barry laughed.
` The thick atmosphere was gone. Disu was gone, no sign of Sakura, but who cared? Not the Squad, because they were too tired. That little episode wore them out, and now they didn't want to go about worrying about their friends. Disu always found his way back, and they were keeping their eyes open, anyway. But the Squad needed a good week or two to themselves. And since that'll never happen…may as well take five. That's all they'll get, anyway.
"I need a second opinion!" Renee persisted.
"My god, can we just get a hotel and sleep already?" Lucas insisted.
"Yeah, women shop too much."
"You look just fine," a female voice said. The Squad turned and saw none other than their favorite blonde head.
"Vanilla!"
"Excuse me for being in such a bad mood," she laughed gauntly. "I'm not really in the mood for talking."
"That's fine!" Barry said excitedly. "Why are you in a bad mood, anyway?"
Vanilla looked at Renee, making Renee bite her lip. "Nothing." She shrugged her shoulders and handed Renee a hundred dollars. "Enough to cover the outfit."
"I…You don't have to…" Renee spluttered, unsure of how to react.
"Like I said, I'm not in the mood for talking."
And with that, she was gone.
Barry sighed. "She's so pretty."
"Your second, I suppose?" Lucas offered.
"Depends who says yes first," Barry said dreamily.
Lucas patted him on the back. "Good luck, you crazy delusional pervert."
Renee stood frozen. "In any case…Let's play for this, and we'll go get a hotel room."
"Sweet! Finally!"
Renee's new outfit consisted of a brown formal-looking top that with a white undershirt and a blue skirt. She also bought plain brown shoes, the cheapest ones she could find, thinking that expensive shoes weren't worth more than a hotel room. She also bought a blue ribbon and tied it in her hair, keeping it parted on her left.
They rented, once again, a room with two beds and faced the choice of who slept with who.
"If we find Disu, I sleep with him," Renee said at once.
"No way! I sleep with you no matter what!" Barry whined.
"Why should you get to sleep with her when you've been talking about sex all day?"
"Because Lucas got to sleep with her last time, and Disu sleeps near her whenever we camp, it's my turn!"
"How about we agree to disagree, and I get a bed to myself?" Renee offered.
"Absolutely not!" both of them said together. "Out of the question!"
"Alright, I get it, I'm only here for sex appeal. Fine, I suppose it is Barry's turn."
Barry grinned. "See, Lucas?"
"But I told Nurse Joy that we're waiting for someone, and if Disu gets here, you have to move."
"Fine, but Disu won't find his way here…"
"Everyone!" Disu shouted, practically breaking the door down. "Disu just made it! Disu is sorry for running off! How is everyone?"
Barry looked crushed. Lucas patted him on the back. "It's okay. I'm still a good friend, right?"
"Irony just hates me…"
Renee smiled. "Good night, everyone!"
~Deoxys Hunter Squad~
Me- Good night indeed. I can't think of a chapter title, so may as well make it what Renee just said…
Renee- What the heck was that? Am I really just here for sex appeal?
