Me: AND WE'RE BACK! WHOOP! And... I suck at PMD3. It took me three days and tons and tons of reviver seeds to beat Groudon and five hours to get through Northern Desert and now I'm stuck in the other sand place after that. *groan* WHEN WILL MY BAD LUCK END? XD (Ah I so hope we get to keep these websites, so then I can stop ranting in authoress notes!) And yes, the person who anonymously reviewed, he will come back soon.

Episode 24- School, the most evil invention ever.

"Last chapter our heroes discovered the wonders of school and have started their first challenge! But with Indigo and Jaspa encountering a problem early on who is going to win?"

"Please remind me why we weren't in the ending of last chapter." Kite said as he and Nevee were treading water. Because, Kite, I left it on a cliff-hanger and you were the last pair to go in. I didn't even notice you go in! "Blame the people who pushed us in before anyone else!" Who were they? "Some people from the green team, they must have had a growth spurt and a half!" *head-desk* YES! I have a desk, no head-floor this time!

"I wanna see a Squirtle!" Nevee said. I doubt you will, Nevee. "Aw man!" They aren't native to Sinnoh; with a brother like Jaspa you should know that. Anyway, what is your first clue? I need to get going soon so the readers don't kill me for leaving it so long before I show the result of the cliff-hanger.

"Oh boy, I know the answer." Kite said. What then? "Luvdisc gathering." Ah. Now... that would have been sooo much better for Indigo and Jaspa. "Can I leave Nevee hear for that? Seriously, I would only go near Luvdisc with one girl." And I know who that is! *giggle* Kite blushed. "How much did my 'submitter' say about that?" Oh, I happen to know almost everything about you all.

"AHHHHHH! STALKER!" Nevee screamed, running around under the water like she would on land. How does she even know what a Stalker is? I thought she was oblivious to everything other than her imaginary friend, cookies, jam and bananas?

"She has a point though." Kite said. Kite, shut up. He began swimming, leaving Nevee to her own devices until he'd done the Luvdisc clue.

A second later he was knocked into a coral formation (do not ask me how there is coral in a lake) when a Squirtle smashed into him.

"Squirtle!" Nevee cheered. *anime style fall*

Theme: Third Generation of Pokémon,
Comin' at you we're number one!
We're better than ever and we're never givin' up,
Gonna keep on fightin' 'til we reach the top!
Cos' we still gotta catch 'em all,
Never gonna let you fall!
Third generation of Pokémon,
Comin' at you we're number one!

Jaspa pushed down into the Twister with strength I didn't realise he had, he was obviously finding it hard to see since he not only needed glasses but the force of the water was making opening his eyes a challenge of its own. He could just make out the green of the top half of Indigo's swimming costume, pushing towards it.

He reached his hand out, trying to find her in the rush of bubbles pushing against them both, trying to break his arm with the sheer force of the spinning water. His breath was being forced out of him. He was afraid soon there would be two casualties here.

Jaspa then felt his hand grab onto Indigo's shoulder, he pulled her up and then grabbed her hand in his, bringing her as close as possible to him and the forcing up out of the twister.

The two shot up to the surface, Jaspa taking a deep breath of air as soon as they broke through the water. Indigo wasn't conscious. In panic Jaspa quickly swam to shore and placed Indigo down.

"Indigo! Indigo!" He exclaimed, shaking her. No response. He leant down and placed his cheek hovering over her mouth, watching for movement of the chest. Nothing. "DAMMIT!" USE BLOODY CPR! Jaspa nodded shakily. Remember, five breaths, thirty compressions, two breaths, thirty compressions and so on. "G-Got it." Blushing bright red he pinched Indigo's nose together and leant her head back slightly, breathing into her mouth. (Better remember this, it'll be the closest to kissing we'll get from them in a while). He did this five times before pressing over her chest with his hands, trying to get the blood pumping again. Boy am I glad I go to rookie lifeguard class...

A few tries later Indigo coughed, spitting water out and opening her eyes slowly. Jaspa breathed a sigh of relief, grabbing the girl in a hug. Indigo coughed a few more times, finding herself blushing faintly when she realised what had happened.

"Thank the lord Arceus you're OK, Indigo!" Jaspa said. "You scared the sh!t outta me!" JASPA! I never thought I'd hear language like that from you! Jaspa glared at me. Okay, with the knowledge I have I know that look may actually start to kill me if I don't leave... bye! *runs* Jaspa looked down at Indigo, seeing her half laughing half embarrassed.

"Thanks..." She said. "You do realise we're disqualified now?"

"I don't really care, Indigo." Jaspa said. Somewhere far away: D'awwww!

~X~X~X~

That went a bit far, Star.

Star swam out from behind the rock she was hiding behind, her Milotic (gifted as an egg from her Aunt Alessandra/Alex) following her.

"I know, I know. It wasn't supposed to go so far he needed to do that. But then again, it did kinda help more this way." Star shrugged. Almost killing Indigo helps? Star's face became -_-. "I meant the CPR part, dumbo!" OI! I don't have big ears! "I would fall down 'anime style' if I weren't in water." Whatever, go back to your teammates now.

Star swam off.

Auberon and Christian... oh, Star too

"Hey guys! I'm back!" Star called as she swam up to them. The boys turned around, they could have been smiling but those mouth pieces get in the way.

"Hey sis, we got the Flag!" Christian said, holding up a blue flag. Star nodded, giving him a thumbs-up and then stopping in front of them. "It was right where you thought."

"Told ya." Star said.

"Why am I getting the feeling I missed a great opportunity to tease someone?" Auberon asked. You always get that feeling, dude.

"How did whatever ya did go?" Christian asked.

"Fine, I think." Star replied. "Shoulda worked." Christian nodded. Clue? "Right."

Scarlet and Lucy

"WAH! Flippin' heck there are a lot of Lanturn!" Scarlet exclaimed as the two swam into the cave seen last chapter. Well, it did say full of light, and full seems about right. Flippin' hell! Is there even an inch of space in there?

"How do we get to the flag?" Lucy asked, she pointed at a small patch of red behind all the Lanturn, Scarlet squinted to see it.

"Um... one of us blows a gap in the middle of the group?" Scarlet asked. Lucy shrugged. "You?"

"Yeah, your Aura may not be strong enough to fire in water yet." She said. Wait... SAY WUT? You're gonna blow a hole in the group with Aura? I should not have let you two pair up... I shoulda known something like this would happen. Two aura users + one group = DANGER!

"Stop overreacting, Authoress." Scarlet said. "It'll just scare 'em." It better! I don't want health and safety on my back again! "Ready Lucy?"

"Always." Lucy said, forming an aura sphere in her palm that pushed the water around it into small whirlpools that glowed purple like her sphere. A second later she threw it and the Lanturn all fled. "Well, that had more than the desired effect." Just get the damn flag.

Scarlet swam, grabbing the flag from its hold in the rock wall and shoving it into the plastic flag bag they had been given.

"Next?"

Kite and Nevee

I see she stayed put when you got the clue. Kite nodded at me.

"She was freaking out about the Squirtle I think." Kite said. "She didn't move from this area." Good, who knows what tr-... GAH! Where is she? Kite spun around and saw Nevee was no longer where she was a second ago. YOU LOST THE MOST DANGEROUS MEMBER OF THE GROUP! "Wait, wait, wait! Insane Nevee may be but she is not that dangerous!" You don't know as much as I do, now find her before she does something she regrets! "Alright, alright! Sheesh, are you setting this up so Lucy and Scarlet win?" No, I am not! Christian, Auberon and Star are doing fine too! Now GO!

Christian, Star and Auberon

"What's the next clue then?" Auberon asked impatiently. Sheesh, elf, even I'm more patient than you! And I am no patient gal. Now, clue! NOW! "Hypocrite." Do you even know what that means? "Nah, but Scarlet calls me that when I tell her not to do something and then do it." Well done! You just learnt the meaning!

"Right... anyway, clue time." Christian said. "This should be an easy one, go and find Lumineon." He then read out. That's the clue? "Yup."

"Isn't this supposed to be a puzzle, not just tell us what to find straight away?" Star said. I dunno, maybe Mr. Fredrick is dumb as well as loud? No, scrap the maybe. He doesn't even realise he's got a narrator in the school! Everyone here can hear me and he just thinks I'm a kid? -_-

"Let's just go find this Lumineon." Auberon said, swimming off. It's says a Lumineon. The hard part with this clue is which Lumineon?

TRm3... oh sorry, I mean Jack and Jill... -_-

"Gimme the sh!tty flag, idiot!" Gwen/Jill yelled at Gareth/Jack. God, you guys and your language are worse than the kids! "Shut up Authoress! Oh why oh why did we have to ask for a part again?"

"Because we're idiots, Gwen!" Gareth replied, earning another hit from the woman. "OW! GWEN!" You two never change! Where's Meowth?

"Don't know, don't care. Probably plotting our next plan for in a few chapters." Gwen said. "Now, give me the damn flag Gareth!"

"No, I have the Flag Bag." Gareth said. Gwen fumed.

"Give me the damn bag too then!" She shouted. I am sooo getting out of here...

Kite

You found her?

"No, I haven't." Kite said. Dammit! You better find her soon! She is lethal to herself. "Right..." I'm not kidding. She could actually kill herself by accident. "Nevee sure is strange..." Ah well, everyone loves her that way. And again, I'm not kidding. Only one person voted against her never having her medication again. "I wish she did."

"EEEEEEEEEEEEE!" He heard a second later.

"Nevee." He sighed, swimming off. "What da ya think has happened to her?" I don't wanna know, but I guess I gotta find out.

Kite swam on until he found Nevee squealing because she had a blue flag in her hand. Kite sweatdropped.

"Wrong colour, Nevee." He said.

~X~X~X~

Annnnd since I ran out of clue ideas it's time to skip time until we reach the end of the competition! Flag count is as follows: Scarlet and Lucy: Three Auberon, Star and Christian: Four Nevee and Kite: One Indigo and Jaspa: N/A 'Jack' and 'Jill': ½

"What happened with you two?" Scarlet asked Indigo as they all sat in the hall waiting for the results to be sorted out.

"I almost drowned, basically. Jaspa just managed to pull me out in time though." Indigo half-lied. Scarlet shrugged at her and looked to the front where Mr. Fredrick had just walked back on.

"I got earplugs this time." Auberon said. Then you won't know who won. "It weren't us, that I know." You got the most flags out of you lot! "And?" *groan* Look dude, my form won my school sports day and I thought we would lose, the same concept applies here. It don't matter what you think, just what happens. NOW PUT THE EARPLUGS AWAY! "Sheesh... you sure have a short temper..." I know, and the boys in my class make it a point to remind me every day.

"Alright everyone! The results are now in, first we will do individual group results and then overall Dorm Group results! OK... in third place for the Blue team... Blah and Blah! In second place for the blue team... Christian Black, Star Black and Auberon Baker!"

Told you!

"We didn't win." Christian pointed out. Ah shuddup.

"... Blah and Blah! Next, the red team! In third place... Blah and Blah! In second... Blah and Blah! And in first... Blah and Blah!"

Bad luck there, you guys.

"That is not funny." Kite said. I wasn't trying to be, but it really was bad luck that made you lose though. "I know..." Nevee giggled.

"I feel sorry for you." Scarlet said whilst trying to stifle a laugh. You are very unconvincing.

"And finally the green team!" We don't need to listen to that, Indigo and Jaspa were disqualified for leaving the water.

"I still wanna know what happened..." Auberon said. Christian and Star both had to force back a laugh.

~X~X~X~

Me: Phew! About time I got this up ain't it? ^^; Well, R&R!
