Drew, May, and Flareon finally arrived at Celadon City, amazed at its size and population. "Wow," May awed as she approached a nearby building.

"Flare!" Flareon exclaimed and ran over to a table full of food. It sniffed the steam and licked its snout at the delicious scent.

"Flareon!" Drew scolded, "That's not yours! Get back here!"

Flareon pouted and walked over to Drew. "Flare..."

May ran over to Drew and said, "C'mon, Drew. Flareon needs to have fun, too you know. Take it easy on the little guy." She looked down at Flareon and cheered, "Lets go have some fun!"

Drew frowned and crossed his arms. "We're here to look for information about the next contest," he grumbled.

"Fun sucker!" May teased. She and Flareon both ran off laughing and giggling.

Drew shook his head. "They're hopeless," he murmured.

"And so are you," May's voice piped.

Drew jumped and turned around, startled. "May? How-"

"I forgot to bring you along," May interrupted. She placed her hands on his back and pushed him forward. "C'mon, Drew. It'll be fun! Besides, you need to lighten up."

"Flare!" Flareon squeaked, wagging its bushy tail.

"See?" May sneered, "Even Flareon agrees with me. Now c'mon. To the hot springs!"

----------------------------------

In the hot springs...

May and Drew sat at opposite sides of the spring. Their sides were seperated with only a huge, yet slippery rock. "How are you doing, Drew?" May asked playfully.

"Just fine," Drew grumbled. Truth was, he didn't even get into the pool yet. He took a deep breath and then exhaled. "Okay, I can do this." He advanced forward, but ended up slipping on the moss and fell into the water with a loud splash. "Ow!"

May heard the splash and laughed. "Drew, are you okay?"

Drew surfaced and kept in a shrill cry when he felt the sudden boiling heat sting his pale body. He bit his lower lip and managed to utter out, "I'm...fine." He leaned against one of the rocks and tried to relax and forget the scorching heat.

May sighed and breathed in the steam. "Isn't this relaxing?" she asked softly.

Drew had finally gotten used to the heat and said, "Hn." He leaned back and savored the refreshing scent of the steam and...cherry blossoms? He gave a confused expression and looked around. "I don't see any cherry trees."

"Hey, Drew!" May called out from the other side, "Did you try their soaps yet?"

"Soaps?"

"Well they're not exactly soaps. They're more like moon stones. They say that if you use one on yourself, you'll know your true scent...or something like that."

Drew now understood where the cherry blossom scent came from. May. He 'swam' over to a nearby rock and saw a green 'soap' on it. He picked it up and ran one through his arm. An aroma mixture of mint and pine filled his senses and he placed the 'soap' back on the rock.

"Nice scent," May teased. She put her 'soap' back on the rock. "But mine is still better."

Drew rolled his eyes. "Can we just leave now? I'm bored to death in here." He got out of the water and wrapped his towel around his waist.

May heard his moist footsteps and snorted, "Be that way." She followed suit.

--------------------------------

Drew, May, and Flareon walked around Celadon City, exploring. Drew saw a tower ride and asked a person, "What is this place?"

"This is the Tower of Demons," the person said, "It's awesome dude! That is, if you're not scared." He ran into the tall, dark building. "Woohoo! This totally rocks!"

Drew raised his green eyes up the tower. He got an evil idea and smirked. Oh, how he loved it when May embraced him. He missed the feeling for too long. "Hey May!" he called and gestured her and Flareon to him.

"What is it Drew?" May asked.

"Flare?" Flareon asked as well.

"Wanna check this tower out?" Drew asked. His smirk widened. "Unless that is... If you're too scared to go, we can always go to the kiddies playground."

May frowned and said proudly, "I can get through that tower no prob!" She crossed her arms.

"Hmhm," Drew laughed.

"Wanna bet?" May challenged.

Drew smirked even more when she fell for his trap. "Alright," he said, "If I win the bet, that you can't make it up and then back down without getting scared or screaming, you have to...hm..." He thought for a moment. "You'll have to do everything I tell you to do for the rest of the day."

"Fine," May snorted, "But if I win the bet, that I can so make it up and back down without getting scared or screaming, then you have to do the things I tell YOU to do for the rest of the day." She scowled at him.

"Deal," the two said at the same time and shook hands.

Flareon looked at Drew and then at May. "Flare," it sighed as it shook its head in disappointment.
