One Night at Constant Box

They weren't watching the TV. The TV was watching them. At this hour, the only things on the TV were infomercials. And on this current infomercial, the salesman was trying to get you to by Repeat Balls. Kinda pointless, really. The Constant Sisters rested on the couch, both snoring loudly. Yeah, snoring. A long time ago, the ten-year-old would have never snored. It seems to be something picked up by her older sibling.

Ricka and Rei rested together, both unmoving from the couch. Both snoring, both sleeping after a long, long, long, day's work. That and the fact that they were enjoying their 'new' downstairs. After that long month in which Sapphiria and Chandra made their leave, the Constant Sisters were left to pick up the slack. And pick up they did. While the downstairs wasn't nearly complete, the home was now inhabitable. Ricka and Rei could go upstairs and downstairs as they pleased, without the fear of the house dropping atop them. Sure, wood panels still needed to be placed here and there, and their kitchen was virtually nonexistent, but things were getting there. They had their living room back, that must stand for something, right?

"Oh... Rei head hurt..." the child murmured as she pulled up from the couch.

Her awakening stirred her sister, as well as Pichu and Yuri. All four of them stretched their arms up and yawned loudly, dispelling their restful eyes. If only for just a few moments. Soon, they'd be in their real bed, sleeping the days away until tomorrow.

"Oh, man," Ricka said as she gazed at the infomercial, her hand on the remote, "Shit... movie's over... well... time to go to bed Rei," she got on her feet, "Think we've spent a bit too much time up, huh? Yeah..." she stretched again, "Eeeeeeyup! Time to get some sleep..."

"Okay!" the child said woozily, before stretching out her hand, "Come one Pichu, Rei and you have to go to bed..."

"Chu... chu..." the Tiny Mouse Pokémon replied in exhaustion, as she quickly scurried up the arm of her trainer.

Thumb on the remote, Ricka flicked off the TV before them. It blitzed off, while the two sisters ushered themselves off to the bedroom. As said earlier, they'd have a lot of work to do tomorrow. Only, as they made way to the staircase, they heard the sound of their door pounding. They both groaned, but it was Ricka who was the angered one. Patting Rei on the behind to send her up the stairs, the woman made way for her pounding door.

"Shit the fuck," she cursed to herself, "I really need to make a set time for when people request rooms here dammit. Like, if it's after... what time is it?" she checked the clock in this room, "1:34AM? Seriously? What the hell!? Ugh... yeah, any time after eleven means no bueno... no bueno indeed..."

Her hand touched upon the doorknob, only to stop. At this time of day? Hell no. Instead of opening the door wide as usual, she peered through the door's peephole. Standing there was a young-man. Well, more like teenager. He was getting up there in his ages; probably seventeen. His eyes, grey (seriously, what was this place and grey-eyed teenagers?), while his white hair was wild and unkempt. Ricka groaned as she gazed at him, realizing it was yet another guest. Meaning she wasn't going to bed in the next 30-60 minutes.

"H-h-hello," the woman said as she yawned mid-sentence, "Welcome to Constant Box... where we..." another yawn, "Not only take care of your Pokémon and their needs but..." another yawn, but this with a hidden obscenity, "You and your needs... promise... fuck..."

Seriously though, he looked so much like a hobo. Well, minus the musky smell, the dirty clothing, and the general awful feel. Actually, no, that awful feel was still there. He wore this green jacket with a white undershirt, one that held a red symbol on it. What was said symbol was anyone's guess. And his pants were loose and black, making Ricka wondered where the hell his belt was at.

Ricka and this individual stared at each other for an extended period of time. The woman, waiting anything, he, practically the same. It started to grain on the woman's nerves soon after, making her eyes bend down into displeasure. And from displeasure to confusion. And from confusion to anger.

"What the hell!?" she snapped, jolting the seventeen-year-old, "Who are, and why the hell are you here if you're just gonna stare at me all fucking day! Say something!"

"Oh! Oh!" he said, timidly as he gazed up to the woman with a blush, "I... uh... m-m-me?"

"Yes you!?" Ricka shouted again, rage increasing, "Who the fuck else would I be talking to, hm? You're the only motherfucker here! It's 1 at night, you'd better have a good reason for being here or else I'mma call the police!"

"NO! NO!" he shouted in fear, "S-s-s-sorry! I was... just... wondering... i-i-is this... Constant Box?"

"No, it's not," she said with blatant sarcasm, "I just said all that stuff earlier because this is all a ruse. I'm not even human, I'm just a fucking Ditto."

"Oh, it's not then," he said as he looked down in defeat, absolutely perplexing Ricka, "Sorry I wasted your time... good Ditto by the way; I didn't know they could speak English when they copy humans... well... I'll go and find the real Constant Box..."

"What the hell, are you stupid!?" Ricka snapped, "Get your ass back here; I was being sarcastic! This is Constant Box, and I'm not a Ditto. Like... are you for real?"

"Oh, y-y-yes," he said as he looked at her, his face growing bright, "I-I-I'm Taust Forrest, I mean I mean, Faust Torrest, I was looking for a room for tonight. Just for tonight though; I'm passing through."

"Yeah, I figured," Ricka said as she gazed around to the dark night around them, "Come in, I have papers for you to sign and shit like that. If you'll be out tomorrow morning, then I recommend you pay up now..."

"Y-y-yes mam..."

…

"Man, Rei..." the woman grumbled as she walked through the door to their bedroom, "Why do we always seem to get creeps around here?"

"Rei don't know," the child answered as she laid in the bed, trying to sleep, "Now can old lady be quiet? Rei tired..."

"Ya'know, I'm so fuckin tired I'm not even about to argue with you..."

She laid in her bed beside her sister, quickly entering that land of rest.

Meanwhile, within his own room, Faust stirred. He laid in his bed, exhausted and drained from the day's events. He was trying to rest, really, but he just couldn't muster the strength to actually do so. He twisted and turned on his bed, as if something or someone was watching him. He just didn't like it!

"Ah!" Faust gasped as he pulled up.

He looked toward the window, watching as nocturnal Pokémon walked left and right. Were they looking at him? Not wanting to be seen, he stood up and closed the blinds of his room. And then the seventeen-year-old fell back onto his bed. What time was it? It must have been 2AM by now. And he couldn't get any rest. Not a lick of it.

"Man Soul," Faust said as he rested on his bed, "I don't think I made a good first impression with the owner..."

He looked over the edge of his bed, toward the other ground. Resting there was a white furred Pokémon with stirring eyes. The four-legged beast gazed up with his red eyes, staring into the soul of the young man before him.

"Ab... Sol?" the Disaster Pokémon said, taken aback by his master's sudden words.

"I-I-I... I got confused by sarcasm again," Faust claimed as he leaned up to look a his Pokémon, "I s-s-s-swear... I mean, she even called herself a Ditto... and I believed her..." Soul laughed at the statement, while Faust rose an eyebrow, "Hey! Don't laugh! I'm being serious! Man..." he leaned back in his bed, "But she didn't have to be so rude about it. I'm... I'm trying here, after all... ugh... I didn't know... uh... what's her name again? Oh yeah, Ricka Constant, I didn't know she would be kinda rude..." then he blushed, "Though those rumors of her being pretty are true..."

"Sol so..." Soul said, slightly peeved by his Trainer's words.

"No, seriously!" Faust claimed as he stood from his bed, foot slamming into the ground, "And I couldn't help but to wonder... do you think she's a good Pokémon Trainer? I mean, I've heard rumors of it, and everyone seems enamored by her thanks to that tournament, but I haven't seen her in action. Maybe we should challenge her to a fight!"

"Absol..." Soul replied, as if it were a bad idea.

"Oh, what? You don't want to fight her? After all that training we've done, I thought you'd be poised to challenge someone like her!"

"Sol..." he said, practically saying 'no' once again.

"Oh, what do you... kn-kn-kn-kn-kn-kno," he was shaking, while his face grew hard and tight, "Ah! Ah! Ah! AAAAAAAAAAACHHOOOOOOOO!"

Soul shook as he gazed up to his trainer. Faust was finally recovering from his sneeze, though things had obviously changed. He didn't stand as frail as he did before, this time with a stronger stance. He stood tall, his suddenly hard eyes moving left and right within this bedroom. Eyes suddenly squinting, he glared toward exit of this building – but more importantly – toward the main Constant Box building.

"Yes, Ricka Constant," Faust said, though his voice was noticeably different, "The bitch with who owns Constant Box. She's probably really strong, but not stronger than me. She insults me and makes fun of my mannerisms, and thinks she can get away with it? I don't think so..." he suddenly looked down to his Absol, who had stood up on four legs now, "C'mon Soul. We have a house to crash."

…

The ten-year-old walked through the halls, now angered that she was awake. And it was only her as well. She just roamed through the halls, trekking down the stairs, coming to the kitchen ever so slowly. She gripped the refrigerator door and opened it slowly, the light from the machine brightening up her eyes.

Her azure blue eyes lined the Moo Moo Milk within, grabbing it by the bottle. She knew it was wise to warm the bottle up, if she planned on getting some sleep. Also, she needed to pour this in an extra cup; Ricka wouldn't like a warm bottle of milk in the morning. Eh, she didn't like a whole lot of things.

Rei put the cup of milk into the microwave, now knowing it's stupid to put aluminum foil inside as well. Yeah, Ricka doubtedly made sure of that. The child slid the Moo Moo Milk inside of the microwave, and then started pressing a few buttons on the side. Sitting in a chair that sat within the kitchen, the child merely watched as the machine brightened up. Only a minute, that's all she needed. And then she'd be off to the land of sleep.

Only, something was just eating at her. The child looked up and around, earnestly confused by this feeling. Was it Rei, or was someone watching her. She stared out the window, watching as various Dark and Ghost-type Pokémon ran left and right, but it wasn't them. No, the child knew the feeling of being gazed upon by a Haunter or a Gengar. No, this felt humane.

Rei gazed left and right, to and fro, searching for the eyes that burned on her. Everything was so black, partly from the hour, partly from the left over scorch marks produced by a certain Emboar. Was someone inside of these marks, silently stalking her? The child didn't want to know. She walked ever so slowly toward the wall directly behind her, the cold air sneaking past her knees. Shuddering, she decided to touch what sat before her and...

DING! DING! DING!

"AH!?" the child yelped.

She turned around quickly, eyes falling upon the microwave once again. It was done, and had informed her of such. Heart returning from its irregular heartbeat, the ten-year-old gracefully walked to the machine and procured her glass of warm milk. It was so warm in her hands; surely it would do well for her conscious nerves.

Rei scarfed down the drink quickly, its warmth in her. Swooning now, she made gentle and wobbly steps toward the stairs. The sound of her going up eventually vanished, leaving the downstairs as silent as it was before she appeared. Well, only briefly.

"I thought she'd never leave..." a voice snarled from the shadows of the room.

Right where Rei was checking, a seventeen-year-old man appeared. In his hand, a pair of scissors. She, Rei Constant, that wasn't his target. His target was that bitch who dared insult him. It wasn't his fault he was slightly awkward. She should have been nice, then maybe this wouldn't be occurring. Maybe.

Faust trekked toward the stairs, scissors still in hand. He stepped higher and higher, getting closer and closer, until one misstep cause ash to fly up into his nostrils. The seventeen-year-old suddenly began to cough and wince, before...

"AH! AH! AAAAAAAAAAACHOOOOOOO!"

The force of the sneeze made him lose his footing, and caused him to plummet toward the ground. His body bounced off and on it, before he hit the ground, slid on his back, and hit the wall.

"O... ouch..." Faust grunted, his demeanor suddenly becoming frail as opposed to strong and demented.

His eyes opened, as he gazed around. What? Where the hell was he? This wasn't the room he rented. Where was Soul, and how did he get here? Oh no; this was the main building. Faust stared around in absolutely fear, finding it deranged how he got here of all places. And it only grew worse from that point on.

"What the fuck was that!?" Faust heard Ricka shout upstairs.

"It wasn't Rei's fault! Rei swear!" the ten-year-old replied to her older sister.

Suddenly, lights from the second floor. Faust struggled to his feet, as he dove into the halls of the first floor. Hiding in the shadows, he heard footsteps echo out from above. Faust watched as a twenty-year-old woman in nothing but her t-shirt and panties stepped down, followed shortly by her ten-year-old sister, and their Pokémon.

"What the fuck was that?" Ricka repeated as her eyes darted left and right, Yuri sitting on her shoulder.

"Wila?" the Deceiver Pokémon asked, equally as confused.

"Chu, chu!" Pichu said, she standing on Rei's shoulder.

"Rei only went to get milk," the child stated, "Rei didn't make that noise though..."

"OLU! OLU!" they heard crying from upstairs.

"Oh no! Ri-Ri is crying, Ricka," Rei said, "Ri-Ri's only a baby, I... I'll go and check up on him!"

The child ran upstairs soon after, leaving Ricka and Yuri alone to search for the noise. The woman walked deeper into the hall, turning on the light as she did so. Upon doing so, she saw nothing. Cocking her head to an angle, she continued walking, only to stop at a door. The utility door that held part of the home's maintenance.

Ricka opened it. Inside sat the homes air conditioning unit as well as various other things. She walked into the dark room, stopping as she stood beneath the light. Raising her hand, she touched upon the light's string. And...

"Ricka!" Rei shouted from upstairs, "Ri-Ri messed himself!"

"HE SHIT HIMSELF IN MY ROOM!?" the woman roared back, "THE HELL HE DID!"

Ricka dashed out of the room moments later, leaving it unchecked as she dealt with the baby Riolu upstairs. Upon leaving it, a seventeen-year-old boy fell out. From his nose, a little blood leaked out. Ricka didn't notice it, but her scantily clad nightwear was seen all by Faust. And in that darkness, her cleavage was ever so close to his face. It took all his power to not say something.

Eventually, lights were turned on, while Ricka ranted about,well, fecal matter. Yeah, she wasn't a very happy woman. When Faust was sure the coast was clear, he slowly stepped out of the maintenance room. He was terrified, and rightfully so. If they caught him, he could be arrested or, judging from Ricka's antics, strangled to death by a very angry redheaded woman. A very 'well-endowed' redheaded woman, but no, no, no, that's besides the point. Being killed, even by a woman with great, uh, assets, as Ricka, is no different from being killed normally. Kinda.

Crap. He was stalling again. If he didn't get out now, his life was going to change. And not for the better. Faust steadily began to tiptoe through the hall, trying his hardest to not create any noise. To his own fear, he heard footsteps echo down the staircase. He leaned upon said staircase, trying to hide within the shadows once more, while a being made herself known.

Yuri stood on the staircase, gazing down to the floor before. Her eyes moved left and right, as she searched for her home's intruder. She just wanted to make sure everything was okay, really. Someone was in this building with them, and Yuri wanted to know who. Her back mouth opened, tongue snaking in and out while saliva dripped. Faust quaked in his shoes as he saw this. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, as he watched Yuri walk back up the stairs.

"Okay Faust," he said as he took in deep breaths, "Just... a little more steps... and you'll be out of-!?"

Faust found his eyes relaying green eyes. Standing right before him in the main building's lobby, was a Meowstic. Blue, with split tails, and white fur at the end of its split tails, this Meowstic was male. He stared up at Faust with no emotion on his, unmoving in any way. And then it said,

"Eow?"

"H-h-h-hey," Faust replied to the small Meowstic, his feet bringing him closer and closer to the exit, "D-d-don't s-s-s-say anything, ooookaaay?" his hand met the knob, "I-I-I-I... was never here! Yeah!"

"Stic?" was the Constraint Pokémon's replied.

Suddenly, its eyes shined bright, while its ears folded up, revealing lights beneath. Faust started to fret.

"Oh no..."

They had just returned to rest, just entered that wonderful threshold of their dreams, just made it to that land. Only for it all to fall apart like broken glass.

KAABOOOOOOGAAAAAA! No. I couldn't have explained that sound any better.

"Seriously!? Again!?" Ricka shouted as she thrust up from her bed, now realizing someone or something was in her home with her and Rei, "Dammit Rei! Get up! Some fool needs an ass whooping! I swear to God if it's a Pokémon..."

The woman scurried from her bed, spitting fumes, with Rei following close behind. They walked downstairs, where in which Rick found her door to be wide open. She stared at it, horrified by the broken hinges caused by a powerful attack.

"Are you fucking kidding me!?" she shouted as she gazed at her doorway, "I just got this shit rebuilt! I swear to Palkia, there better be a good fucking reason for all of this shit!" she gazed up, finding a body laying face first in the dusty ground, "Hey you!"

Faust rived in pain on the ground, as he tried to come to terms with his situation. Some of the dust in the ground gathered within his nose however, making him say 'Oh no'.

"AH! AH! AAAAAAAAAAACHOOOOOOO!"

Faust sprang up, completely different from how he was before. He heard Ricka's call, and spun around quickly to face the woman. Before him, on the front porch of the main building, he found the blue eyes of a half-dressed Ricka Constant staring back at him. And boy, with he stance, was she angry. To bad; he was too.

"You!" Faust shouted, anger in his voice, "You're that bitch who shouted at me earlier!"

"What the fuck?" Ricka repeated as Rei walked up to her side, "You're that weird guy ain't you!? Uh... yeah! Faust Torrest! You're Faust aren't you – you little bastard – the fuck are you doing here in my home at night!? What are you some pervert!? Get kicks outta sneaking into women's houses as they sleep with their sisters!?"

"I don't give a shit about her! Or you for that matter!" Faust claimed, "I came here for one thing and one reason only," he pointed at the woman, "I came here to challenge you to a Pokémon Battle!"

"The hell is wrong with you!?" Ricka asked, "Are some circuit boards or some shit broken in your head! I'm not about to battle a pervert like you! Get the fuck outta of my ranch before I have you arrested or worse," she cracked her knuckles, "I kill you myself!"

"Oh hardy har har!" Faust replied, "You humor me! I want a Pokémon Battle! And I want one now!"

"Are you ten!?" Ricka retorted, before she second guessed herself, "Wait, no, you're not ten. Rei is ten, and she's way more mature than you are! So, what, that makes you, like, five!? Six, maybe!? Ya'know? I'll level with you; you are seven-years-old, max!"

"Hey! Shut up!" Faust barked back, "I want a Pokémon Battle! Right here! Right now! Get your strongest Pokémon! I'll destroy it!"

Ricka's eyes slid into a squint. She could take a lot of insolence, she could even take a lot of insults, but she could not take any insults directed toward Ace. Saying something as simple as 'I'll destroy it', would be like slapping Ricka's mother. No, wait, it's worse; Ricka doesn't know her mother. So pretty much, insulting Ace is the single worse thing you could do around Ricka Constant. It's a sure-fire way to set her off.

"A Pokémon Battle, huh?" she asked, unusually cool to the point that Rei herself was scared.

"Yes! Yes! A Pokémon Battle!" Faust barked.

"Rei... go grab my pants and my belt..." Ricka said as she glared at Faust, "I have trash to dispose of..."

…

The tall and stout Sceptile was noticeably tired this night. So tired in fact, he was slowly entering and exiting rest time and time again. And while standing, no less. When he did gain the power to look, he stared across the field to his opponent. A white and black beast that stood on two legs and had devilish red eyes. The Disaster Pokémon, Absol.

"Calm down, Soul..." Faust said, sensing his Pokémon's antsy nature.

Faust had changed again. He wasn't timid and terrified of everything, nor was he a foul-mouthed jackass psychopath. He was calm and stoic, staring toward his enemy with sharp eyes. His enemy who happened to be an easily enraged woman who was now half-tired. Seriously, by now, she was giving death glares to Ghost-types of all things.

"Let's make this quick," Ricka said as she crossed her arms, "Ace and I really need our beauty sleep. It keeps us fresh and not murderous!"

"I understand," Faust said as he looked at Ricka, unnecessary obscenity not added, "I'll show you our true strength!" then he pointed at Ace with vigor, "Soul! Use Night Slash!"

The Disaster Pokémon stood up tall, red eyes gleaming like crimson lights. Darkness started to flow from his claws as well as the mighty horn upon his head. And, before anyone knew it, Soul was dashing for his enemy. Such a quick and powerful Pokémon, he cleared the fields at high speeds. All the while, Ace appeared unaware of this, as he continued to standing with his eyes close, and gentle snores coming from his mouth. Rei was terrified; thinking the mighty Sceptile would be stricken. And Ricka? Well, she just sighed. Sighed from disappointment.

"Ace... Leaf Blade..." she said, lacking vigor and excitement. Which was pretty much this entire battle.

His eyes shot open wide suddenly, much to Soul's surprise. Nonetheless, the Disaster Pokémon leaped high for his foe, claws still glowing dark. At the same time, Ace pulled up a sword that seemingly came from nowhere. Soul slashed his dark claws down, at the same time Ace rushed forth with his sword.

The two attacks collided. Ace's Leaf Blade clashed with Soul's Night Slash. Only, the Sceptile's might slash knocked the powerful claws away. Soul's eyes widened, as he watched as Ace spun around. The Absol attempted retreated by leaping back, but the wind pulled him in. He was forced to watch as Ace, with both hands on his sword, turned back around.

Two lights seemed to dart. Left and right, both surrounded by darkness. These lights became one.

Ace was suddenly on the other side, posed in a way that his sword pointed to the sky. Meanwhile, behind him, was the falling body belong to Soul. The powerful Absol fell to the ground in pure silence, while Ace slashed his sword through the air a few times. And then the Sceptile placed his blade away, as if it were entering a sheath. His actions caused the sword to vanish in a storm of leaves.

Faust stared in complete awe toward his foe, the mighty Sceptile known as Ace. The Forest Pokémon gave a hard yawn now, before the hands of his master glided along his head. He stared over to Ricka, seeing a smile on her face, while she playfully rubbed his bottom jaw.

"Good job, Ace," she said sweetly, "You can go to bed now..." he nodded and left, while she crossed her arms and faced Faust, "Now you... are we done here?"

"I... I guess you really are as good as they say," he replied meekly, as he called Soul back to his Poké Ball, "Uh... s-s-s-sorry if I... bothered you tonight..."

"Ah, hey, its okay," Ricka said as she put her hand on his shoulder, "After all, you're just a dirty little pervert..."

"No, no, I'm not I swear!" Faust replied as he tried to make her understand, "Ya'see... I guess you can say I kinda got this disorder and... uh... well..." he sighed, "Never mind, I'm sorry if I bothered you tonight, really I am..." he looked up and smiled, "My Master said I'd meet a lot of interesting people when I started traveling. I'm so happy I did instead of listening to my father's will."

"That's nice," Ricka said, "Now... get the fuck off of my ranch..."

…

"Hey! Hey! Ricka!" the twenty-five-year-old man yelled from outside, "Ricka! Please answer me! It's eleven Ricka! Where are you!? Where's Rei!?"

Shun's shouts fell on deaf ears. Well, more like resting ears. He could scream all he wanted, but it would seem he was left alone to the daycare once more. Seriously, its insane how much work Ricka forces upon her valiant worker. For, you see, the Constant Sisters were resting in their own bed, practically dead to the word. They'd wake up whenever the hell they wanted to.

"Aaaaaahhh... crap..." Shun said as he slumped over in defeat, "Looks like we're gonna work the daycare alone today Mawile... again..."

"Wile, wile..." the Shiny Deceiver Pokémon said in disdain, as he and his master walked toward the many awaiting trainers and their Pokémon.

…

"So we make way for Mt. Silver then..." Kane said, as he placed away his PokéNav.

"Mt. Silver?" Carolina answered, "I thought Jirachi was in Johto, not Kanto."

"Actually, Carolina," Ricka said as she gave a sunny smile, "Mt. Silver is a Johto landmark, even if you can only get to it from Kanto."

"Uh... yeah... thanks Ricka..." she replied, before both of their eyes fell on Kane, "Are we leaving now?"

"Yeah, yeah," he replied as he stared back down the route, "Let's just get moving."

The trio turned back down the route soon after, and walked side-by-side. The twenty-two-year-old woman with the other teenagers felt a gentle wind ruffle her. She cocked her head in confusion, before looking over her shoulder. She saw nothing, before looking back.

"What's wrong?" Carolina asked, slightly annoyed.

"Nothing, nothing," the woman replied, "Let's just keep moving!"

And they walked, down this path, to wherever their feet brought them. But they weren't so far behind. Someone walked behind them, ever so slowly. He was a white-haired fifteen-year-old, who wore this green jacket with a white undershirt, one that held a red symbol on it. What was said symbol was anyone's guess.

He followed the trio from behind, while a Wooper sat on his shoulder. Being sure to keep his distance, he was trying not to be suspicious. After all, his first meeting with the group didn't go over so well. Oh well.

"Just you wait, Jirachi," he said, his shyness showing, "I'll find you, wherever you are. And I'll get my wish!"

And so, he kept walking. Yup, his wish.

Forgotten Wishes, it would seem.

Maverick Talks!

Another day, another chapter. I'm pretty sure I've used that statement before. Oh well.

So today's chapter won't split off into two parts! Uber! Yes! Awesome! I'm so psyched because of this! Like, really, I am! You don't know how much! But I guess it doesn't matter, huh?

The character of the day comes to us from DratiniX, and that character is Faust Torrest! Faust is actually an interesting character, if one were to ask me. I mean, he pretty much has Multiple Personalities Disorder. Yeah, he's like Launch from DBZ. Whenever he sneezes, he switches between two vastly different personalities. Only, when in battle, he gains a third new on from nowhere! I hope I was able to show all of that with his chapter, really.

But, no, no, you just wanna know about that ending, right? Like, what was all of that about? We got this dude named Kane there and some chick named Carolina, and Ricka was walking with them. Ricka was also 22, what is this!? That, my dear friends and readers, is the RP known as Forgotten Wishes. Which is the RP created and moderated by Pixelized Pikale and Company. That Kane there is Kane Malso, who is the character PPandC uses in the RP. In that RP, Ricka is 22 instead of 20 and what not. Just so you know, the RP's Ricka appear in save for one, kinda aren't canon to this story. I hope that helps you out. Probably because the way Ricka and Rei meet in CB is way different from how they meet in The Legendary Guardians. So, yeah, RPs aren't really canon to this story, though I will incorporate things from said RP to this, and vice-versa.

So, yeah, I hope you liked the chapter. Used a lot of fun and some suspense, I suppose you can say, right? I liked this chapter a whole lot, really! Don't know why; makes me laugh though.

But as usual, send in your characters. Animegirl426 and I still want them. Forever.

Next chapter, our character shall Username Requested. Maybe, I might do something completely random next chapter as well. How random? You'll see. I think it's been a while sense a certain Legendary Pokemon appeared, don't you?

Maverick Kay Prime
