Chapter Five — Fake Act
"Detective Blue, the smart and gorgeous detective woman, identifies the wall closely. She checks every part, trying to find clues because she's thorough and observant. She's amazing too."
"Blue, what are you doing?"
The brunette turned around to face the girl behind her, breaking her character. Blue was wearing a brown checkered coat with a matching hat, accessorized by white gloves and a magnifying glass. She fluttered her eyes over to Crystal, wondering why she was giving her weird looks.
"What are you talking about? Isn't it obvious?"
"You've gone insane and you're narrating your own actions in a dramatic voice for no reason?" Crystal concluded.
"I'm trying to solve this case!" Blue corrected, waving her magnifying glass. "Isn't it obvious?"
"This is ridiculous, I should've just called the police last night," Crystal mumbled, shaking her head. "I don't know I let you stop me."
"Look, I'm already in character! I can solve it!" Blue reassured, showing the girl her cute detective outfit.
"No, right now you're just imitating a dumber version of Sherlock Holmes," Crystal deadpanned. "Get out of that weird costume already."
"Really? My outfit is weird?" Blue asked, gesturing her hand to the others.
Even though Blue was dressed crazy, nobody didn't have the place to judge. Last night, they were all tired, so they decided to handle everything in the morning and get some rest. Luckily, the doors were locked during the time, so none of their personal belongings were stolen and only the living room items. They decided not to make a big deal about it. Now, after a good night's rest, everyone was awake at 5:10 AM in their pajamas.
"Have you seen Red?" the girl added.
Ruby found it ridiculous as to what they actually wore at night. Though the boy lived with Red before, he still couldn't stand looking at the senior's home attire. He was wearing pikachu boxers along with a non-matching bulbasaur T-shirt, some squirtle house slippers, and he had a charmander blanket wrapped around his arms. Funny enough, Red actually bought multiple pairs of this outfit because it's his favorite combination, so it was something he wore often. It killed Ruby inside every time he saw it because it did not match at all and the design was just weird.
"Hey, these are really comfy!" Red defended.
"My pajamas were really comfortable too," Sapphire said, thinking about her leaf pajamas. She turned to Ruby and glared at him when she remembered what happened to them. Aiming a punch at him, she added, "IT'S YER FAULT THEY'RE GONE!"
Ruby swiftly dodged the punch, used to it since she would hit him all the time. "The clothes I made you are really comfortable too!"
"But the leaves were so much smoother and easier to take off!" Sapphire retorted.
"Guys, this isn't the time to be fighting," Crystal said, breaking them apart and stepping in between them. "We should just be happy that none of our personal things were stolen, and that no one got hurt. For now, we should just ignore Blue and call the cops."
"Crys! I can solve this mystery! Just give me a try," Blue insisted.
Yellow let out a yawn from beside them. "... Did we have to wake up an hour earlier for this?" she asked, rubbing her eyes sleepily, ignoring the fact that she was dressed in her pajamas in front of the guys. Her pajamas weren't as bad as leaves or Red's mix-match fashion, and she actually wore the clothes she would wear outside in public to sleep because they were really comfortable. Like everyone else's outfit, Ruby disapproved of it too.
"You shouldn't be complaining anyways. We always take naps," Emerald stated.
"I'm starting to question whether you singers are actually busy," Gold said. "You guys seem to laze around a lot. Honestly, I should've became a singer instead."
"Never gonna happen," Silver quipped.
"Mm... to be honest, we don't usually have that much work, but next week we seem to have a lot to do. Rald and I have to travel to the northern side of Kanto for a few concerts, so we'll be gone for two days next week," Yellow informed.
"No! I thought we were supposed to go tree climbing on the weekend!" Sapphire reminded, making others wonder about their hobbies.
"Don't worry, I'm going to leave on Monday, so we still have the whole weekend," Yellow reassured.
"Uh yeah... Yellow, no offense, but I don't think you should go tree climbing," Red told her, earning looks from the others.
Sapphire was the one who was the most shocked when he said this. Her favorite senior who she looks up to was telling her other favorite senior to ditch their loved activity. Sapphire would always did it with Yellow to relax and relieve stress once a month, and the fact that Red was attempting to crush her plans made her upset.
"Wait, why?" Yellow asked innocently.
"Because you'll fall out of the trees and get hurt," Red answered honestly, making the blonde blush slightly, happy he cared for her safety. "I mean, last time you got hurt, and you had to cast your arm with Kitty's string shot for a while."
Green groaned and rolled his eyes. "That was for a music video, idiot."
"Don't worry, Red! I only fall out of trees when I sleep in them!" Yellow rest assured, even though it wasn't reassuring at all.
Sapphire frowned. "Okay, so now we're not going ta do tree napping now?" she inquired.
"Wow, I can't believe you guys do secret sister bonding stuff without me!" Blue exclaimed, putting a hand over her heart and pretending she was hurt.
"Blue, what are you talking about? They do it every month during the whole weekend when we go camping," Crystal told her. "We always go with them on the same camping trip. Don't tell me you've never noticed."
"I know, but I didn't think the times I was practicing my script at the camp, they were doing tree climbing. I thought they were going to go look for food," Blue said.
"Woah, woah, woah. Hold up a sec," Gold interjected. "You gals are going camping, and you're not going to bring us with you?"
"Well, yeah. The point is ta get our heads out of the city and relax with the sweet nature air. Why would ya guys even like that?" Sapphire asked, stating the obvious.
"We're men," Gold replied, gesturing to him and the guys.
"Speak for yourself, I don't want to go. Mud, vines, and tree climbing isn't really my cup of tea," Ruby said, wrinkling his nose at the thought of it.
"Ignore him, he secretly loves it," Gold lied casually. "Anyways, let us go with you gals. I mean, we live in the same house, so we should stick together as a family, right?"
"Gold, last time you said that, I ended up with a pancake in my shirt," Crystal deadpanned. "Do you want me to remind you of yesterday?"
"Hey, this is different! We have the 'Survival Caveman Red' on our side!" he tried to persuade, gesturing to the senior with jazz hands for an effect.
Red's sweat dropped at the title Gold made up for him.
"I thought Sapphire is the survival caveman," Emerald commented.
"Okay, anyways—" Gold ignored them once again and continued since he didn't have anything to back it up. "—the director told us that we should be closer. Don't you want to go with his wishes? Who knows how long he'll live!"
"Denied," Green interjected in a cold voice. "I have plans to do on my day off. There's no way I'm going to change them, just to go into the woods with you and pesky woman."
Silver glared at him once again when he called his sister a pesky woman, and Green ignored it this time.
"Green is right. You shouldn't go because the forest is our spot, and plus, it's like a training camp," Blue said. "I mean, I love romance as much as anyone else, but we need some boundaries. Vacation is to get away from scary grumpy guys like Green."
Ruby nodded. "You know what, I'm cool with that! You people are crazy, and I'm out. End of discussion. Sapph and I have to meet up with the reporters again, and I need at least half an hour to get ready."
Before they could drag him into this, Ruby left and went back to his room.
"Oh shoot, I forgot!"
Sapphire dashed to hers as well.
"Wait, I just realized that the topic has been jumping around," Crystal said in realization, remembering the reason why they were waking up earlier in the first place. "Okay, so back to the main problem concerning the wall, I'll give you half the day for the detective thing since you seem so desperate about it. If you don't finish by sunset, I'm calling the cops no matter what you say."
"That's not enough time though," Blue pointed out.
She knew it wasn't enough time, but she thought it'd be a nice compromise.
"Just be happy that I actually gave you time instead of calling them immediately."
Crystal turned around and walked back to her room to get ready too. The day was going to start soon.
While Blue stood there with an offended look, Yellow yawned again beside her. "Good luck, Blue. Make sure not to get hurt if you find the perpetrator."
Suddenly, Blue's expression changed when she thought about solving the case. She grinned and swung her arms around Red's and Green's shoulders, making the boys both visibly uncomfortable. They knew she was up to something when she did this.
"You don't have to worry, Yellow! I have the best partner, plus Green!"
"Go to the oasis and hide somewhere! Our secret hideout has been discovered... by you."
After finishing the last note, both Yellow and Emerald inhaled deeply and took off their headphones. Yellow grabbed a water bottle off the stool and handed it over, also grabbing one herself. With her sleeve, she wiped her forehead then proceeded to drink some water.
Through the mirror on the other side of the recording booth, the producer gave them a thumbs up. He also took off his headphones, and through the microphone in front of him, he said, "Good job, guys! Take five!"
"Thanks, Bill!" Yellow said, even though he probably couldn't hear through the soundproof glass.
"Man, this place is hot," Emerald commented.
"Yeah, but look on the bright side, tomorrow we're going to be recording the music video after making the demo!" Yellow said optimistically, somewhat excited. "How'd you come up with the song by the way?"
"Got inspiration from the robbery," Emerald answered. "We should seriously get robbed again. Just not with Blue."
Yellow laughed nervously, wondering whether he was kidding or not.
"You know, I'm kind of curious how much progress they'll find. Blue did say that they were an elite team."
"Okay, so I want to see if it's ketchup or not, and I can't really tell unless I touch it and lick it. But the problem is, what happens if it's not ketchup? Then I ended up licking someone's blood, and that's gross, like I don't even know where it's been. Also, the other downside is that if I don't choose soon, it's going to dry up and I won't get the chance."
"Red, stop blabbing about this nonsense and change the channel already," Green grumbled.
The raven-haired boy stopped voicing his thoughts out loud and pressed the button for his friend. Green sat there beside him on the couch, sipping on his coffee peacefully while keeping his eyes locked on the screen.
"Ahem!" Blue cleared her throat, placing her hands on her hips. She stood behind the couch, and her body loomed over the two. "You guys are supposed to help me! Don't you care about who robbed our place?"
"Does it matter? We already have loads of money and we replaced our furniture. All we have to do now is just clean that stupid wall, but you won't let us," Green snapped.
Blue let out a huff. "Can you stop being a downer? At least Red is talking about it instead of watching T.V.!"
"No, he's just curious whether that's his favorite sauce, or not," Green clarified.
"Green, don't be crazy. My favorite sauce is soy sauce," Red corrected.
Blue slapped her forehead. She was sure that the Kanto crew would be able to find the truth about this, considering they were the wisest (at least Green was) and the oldest of the group. Maybe she should've asked Yellow, or something. Well, the blonde was the worst person to solve this, but at least she was more supportive than these two.
Blue snapped out of her thoughts when she saw Green get up, and dumped his mug in the sink. He walked over to grab keys off and went over to the front.
"W-Wait, where are you going?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Just because I'm a part of the Pokespe and I'm off for an hour doesn't mean I'm off the other things," he replied vaguely, quickly shoving his feet into his shoes and walking out the door before Blue could stop him.
The brunette groaned when she heard the door slam shut.
"I would've stopped him, but he's too far," she said out loud.
She let out a sigh and turned around, and attempted to think optimistically. With a big, perky smile, she said to Red, "Guess it's the twin duo left! Ooh~! I just got an idea! Let's act like our characters while trying to solve it."
Red averted his eyes from the T.V. and shrugged, a look of interest in his eyes. "Why not, I'm down for it!"
"I want to strangle you, I want to kill you, give me your neck," Crystal kept chanting repeatedly, putting her arms out towards Gold. The only thing that was keeping her away from his neck was Black holding her back. He didn't know how he got the job of restraining the girls from killing the boys (Sapphire and Blue was much worse than her), but he was the one who always had to do it.
"Look Crys, chill! It wasn't that big of an incident!" Gold reassured, using White as a shield.
He, Silver, and Crystal were called into the director's office for news. Of course, their manager White and her assistant Black tagged along. When they got there, they received bad news concerning the food incident that happened to Crystal yesterday. Apparently, there was a scandal concerning Crystal, and a witness recorded her well.
"Wasn't that big of an incident? I'm the target for the press, they're all making fun of me!" she snapped. "I beat Ruby and Sapphire dating, and they're supposed to be the power couple!"
"Hey, look on the bright side! Now our favorite hangout coffee shop won't ever close down because it's known that Crystal Lee eats there! I bet more customers will come!" Gold said, dodging her swinging arms.
"Gold, I'm just gonna say this because it's my opinion, but you're not really helping yourself," Black whisper-shouted, acting like the girl he was holding couldn't hear him even though she was the closest.
"Shut it, Black," Gold snapped. "You're not helping either!"
"Hey everyone, let's just calm down and stop this hostility," Director Oak spoke up, trying to not laugh at the scene. Everyone turned their attention to him, remembering that he was there. He continued, "Crystal, it's okay. It's not much of a big deal, or even a 'scandal'. The reason why I showed you it is because I want you to be very cautious in the future."
"Wait, that's all?" White inquired, speaking up after a long silence. "With all due and respect, I think it was wise to give them warnings, but was it really necessary to make me leave my previous job to come here for that small speech that consisted of, what, three sentences?"
"Well, let's be honest, I think we both want to be here than the other job," Black said.
"What was the last job?" the director asked.
"Ruby and Sapphire," White answered, letting everyone agree that holding Crystal back was easier than Sapphire.
"Seriously, that girl needs to be declawed, or something," Black mumbled.
"Hey, stop dissing Sapphire! She has a lot on her case and Ruby criticizes her like every minute," White defended. "I mean, if the two just put aside their differences and work together, this would all be over easily without any fights!"
"Oh, there's still more fights?" the director asked, concerned.
They didn't know why he expected them to change after a couple days of living with each other.
"Yeah, your living together plan sucks and we're arguing more," Silver complained. "It's fine if Blue and I live together because we have a good relationship, but why Green? They're like fire and ice, and he keeps insulting her!"
"Hey, it's slowly working. Patience is the key," he reassured shakily. "Anyways, how is your place? I heard it was robbed."
"What?" White shouted in surprise, turning to them. "You guys got robbed? Are you guys okay?"
"Yeah, last night," Crystal answered.
Silver narrowed his eyes at the director, suspicious of him all of a sudden. "Wait, how do you know?"
"'Cause you guys told me," he replied smoothly.
"We didn't tell anyone because of all the trouble."
"Well... oops."
Where are they? Green wondered, looking around.
He came back home after an hour, only to find Blue and Red missing and the evidence still there. He was sure they didn't leave the house either since the cars were still in the garage.
Putting the fast food bag he brought inside on the counter, he walked outside to the backyard since that was the only other place they could be at besides the bathroom. When he had came outside, he immediately was shot in the face with water and soaking wet. He turned towards the person responsible for this and glared at them.
Red stood there, dressed in his little matching detective outfit that was identical to Blue's, currently fearing the boy and regretting his actions. Quickly, he pointed an accusing finger at Blue who was on Green's right and shouted, "It was Blue's fault! It wasn't me!"
Whipping around to face her with his arms crossed, Green waited for an explanation. "What the hell are you guys doing?"
He started to regret being nice and buying food for him.
Blue quickly hid her large, squirtle-shaped water gun behind her back and laughed nervously. "Well, Red and I concluded that the criminal would come back to the crime scene, so we decided to surprise him. The best place to infiltrate someone's home is the backyard because back doors unlock faster than front doors! With that in mind, Red and I were on guard in the backyard," she explained.
"And you think squirting them with water will stop him?!" Green snapped.
"Oh, what? You want us to go jack some bullets from somewhere and use it? I might be a thief, but I'm not a killer," Blue said. She stopped for a second and clicked her tongue when she realized something. In a whiny voice, she continued, "Nooooo! Green! You made Red and I broke character—wait!" Blue's mouth curved into a grin. "Red, you lose, haha! I won the game because you accused me first and called me by my name!"
Red frowned and groaned when he realized his loss. "Gah! Green! Why'd you have to walk in right now?"
"Shut up," Green snapped, not asking further questions about their dumb little game. "You two, get out of those stupid outfits. We need to start filming the car scene right now."
"Now?" she asked. "But I was just having fun!"
Green ran his fingers through his spiky hair and pulled it back to get it out of his face since the water rinsed his gel. "Do I look like I care?!"
He quickly left the insane duo and went inside the house again, muttering curse words.
This is what I get for worrying about them, he thought, regretting the nice deeds he did for them today.
RING! RING!
Red looked at Blue when he heard the noise coming from her. The brunette dug into her pocket somewhere in her coat and pulled out her vibrating cell phone. Flipping her case open, she tapped on the screen and put it up to her ear, waiting for the phone to connect the call.
"Hello, this is Blue," she greeted. Blue said "uh huh"'s and "okay"'s in between pauses before shouting, "What?! Really?" Her face shifted from shocked to pissed off and upset a moment later. Red couldn't really make out the conversation, but something must've happened by her reaction. The girl grumbled something under her breath then ended the call without saying bye.
"... What was that about?" Red asked, cautious of whether he was going to get on her bad side by asking, or not.
"That was Crys. She just told me that it was the director who did the whole robbery thing because he wanted to test us. He wanted us to work together to deal with the situation when the robbery happened because apparently he thought that at least one of us would freak out or get a hard attack, and the others would help," Blue answered. "Too bad our reactions were really dull because we were busy fighting and worrying about other things."
"Oh," Red mouthed.
She sighed. "I was looking forward to finding a criminal too," she sulked.
"Blue, you weren't really serious, were you? I mean, if I saw a killer then I would run," Red admitted. "It's the most natural thing to do."
"Oh please! There are more scarier things than a killer," Blue said casually as if it wasn't even scarier than a puppy. "If there was really a killer, or a person who threatened us, then I'm prepared to find him or her out no matter what. The world is never safe anyways."
"... Blue, you scare me," Red said, referring to how her brain works in deadly situations.
"Hey! What's scary is the clothes you wear to sleep? Pokémon is not the best accessory," she commented, opening the back door so they can get in.
Red followed behind her. "For the last time, they are super comfortable and fashionable!"
"I feel kind of bad because everyone is working hard with their acting careers and we're taking visits to coffee shops everyday," Yellow said, adjusting her straw hat.
"It's fine. Crystal told me that she, Silver, and Gold went to a coffee shop yesterday, so it's the same thing for them," Emerald replied. "If anything, they have it easy. They're not in a stuffy room for hours and preparing for a concert later."
"Oh, speaking of the concert, Ruby told me that our show outfits are almost ready," Yellow informed.
"Great, we have to wear those weird costumes," Emerald grumbled. "What else?"
"The director contacted me this morning and told me that he booked the whole crew on this reality T.V. game show," Yellow answered, making Emerald feel indifferent about it. "After we're done with that, we continue with our usual schedules until our days off then the concerts."
Emerald sighed to relieve stress. "On my days off, I'm going to take a 48-hour nap."
Yellow giggled at his joke. "I think I will too!"
"Who are you?! Get away from me!" the brunette shouted, looking frightened and angry at the same time. She sat in a hospital bed with her head wrapped around in a white bandage and her arm and both legs in a cast. Despite all that, she could sit up though, but barely.
"May, why don't you remember me?!" the raven-haired boy sitting on the stool beside the bed asked with a hurt expression. "We've been on the same journey for months, travelling together. Don't you remember me? I'm the one who taught you how to ride a bike, camped with you in the woods all the time, the person you used as a shield from wurmples for Kyogre's sake! I'm Brendan."
The girl looked at him cautiously before casting him a sad look with her sapphire eyes. "I don't know any Brendan," she breathed. "... Now get out of my room before I call security."
"And cut! Take fifteen!" the director shouted from afar.
The two stopped their sad expressions then returned to their bored, normal expressions. Sapphire yanked her fake casts off and tossed them aside on the floor, then yawned and stretched. Ruby, on the other hand, went straight for the water bottle to hydrate himself since they've been recording for hours non-stop.
"Sorry that I couldn't really substitute for Oak well," the new director apologized, walking to the two on the set.
"Nah, it's cool, Papa! Y'all are both the same, really!" Sapphire rest assured.
"Yeah, I didn't even notice the difference," Ruby agreed.
"Gee, guys, thanks!" he said, happily skipping off afterwards, leaving the two alone.
"Man, where the heck is White?" Ruby mumbled, looking around to find her missing.
"Can ya stop depending on her every minute? She told us that she was leaving ta go ta Crys because Director Oak called her. You should pay attention ta yer manager instead of yer clothes," Sapphire suggested.
"Hey! At least I don't dig my nose into dirt every minute," Ruby retorted. "You're a girl for Kyogre's sake. Act like one."
Sapphire scoffed at him. "Shut yer yap! I don't do that, and I do act like a girl!" she argued.
"Oh yeah, that explains why you're spending your few days off camping and swinging on vines. What's next? Making rock soup?" Ruby teased.
She gritted her teeth, resisting the urge to punch him. "At least I can actually survive! I bet you'll be dead in a second by getting flattened by a rhyhorn stampede!" Sapphire retorted.
"How weak do you think I am?" Ruby asked rhetorically, thinking that it would be ridiculous that it would be the first thing to happen when he enters the forest.
"Very, very weak," Sapphire answered bluntly without hesitation.
"I might dislike the place, but I can certainly survive in that unsanitized place, AKA your homeland," Ruby said, "Oops. I mean your home-cave."
Sapphire narrowed her eyes and glared at him. "Oh yeah? Let's have a bet then. Let's see who could survive in the woods the longest!" She put out her hand, waiting for him to shake. "Loser has to serve the winner for a whole month."
Ruby was hesitant with an uncertain look. He really, really, really didn't want to go to the woods, which was known as the place full of dirt, bugs, and other dirty things. And it being on his day off, made him more hesitant than ever. But he didn't want to lose to Sapphire. And if meant tossing away his day off to save his pride, he'd do it. Plus, if he did win, then he could finally clean Sapphire and make her wear the clothes he made off the set and in public.
"Deal." He reached out and shook her hand.
"I'm still concerned that you guys didn't call the police though," Director Oak commented. "I mean, I know you guys are pretty... criminal-ish, but why didn't you call the police?"
"Blue's idea of using real life situations to get into character," Crystal answered.
"Also, I'm probably the least person to be a criminal out of the whole crew," Gold added, making people turn to him with a dumb look. He raised his arms to defend himself and returned a serious expression. "Hey, c'mon! Blue robs people, Silver picks locks, Yells probably blackmails Pokémon, Sapphire is already a killer by heart, Ruby insults kids' clothing, Green tried to hit an old lady the other day, Red could be just acting nice and be a real one, Crys and Rald beat up people with both their inventions and feet, White is just crazy on her own and lastly, Black is a maniac; period."
Black gave a 'what the heck' face at him while the others looked annoyed. Well, at least the ones mentioned.
"Hey! I'm standing right here, and let's be honest, I'm probably the sanest person in this room right now," Black stated.
Silver did a fake cough and in between his second one, he muttered a loud visible, "Harasser and pervert."
Gold glared at him.
"Okay besides all the ignorant assumptions, we should just let the director continue," White changed the subject, adding, "By the way, Black, I'm the sanest person."
"Says the girl who ran out of the cab during traffic," Black muttered, making Crystal's sweat drop because she heard it.
White turned to him. "What was that?" she asked innocently.
"Nothing."
"Okay, continuing, let this be a lesson! I guess I was wrong to put a criminal situation in your cases, but I still want you to call the police no matter what. It's the sanest thing to do if you guys want to be sane so much," Director Oak advised. "Also—" He stopped mid-sentence when he heard a loud vibration and message alert.
Crystal pulled out her phone once again and checked her message. "My bad," she apologized as she read her phone. "Umm... speaking of the act, Red asks what the wall was really written in. It's starting to smell, and if it is ketchup, then Green wants to hurry up and wash it— oh wait. Scratch that, Green already got the hose and started spraying it."
"Wait, a wall full of ketchup...? What are you guys talking about?" he asked.
"Y'know, the wall that said, 'watch out' that was written with red stuff," Gold answered.
"I never did that, what are you guys talking about?" he inquired in real concern.
"Wait, what?"
A/N — ohohoho more mystery yay! Okay besides all the apologies for this late chapter (dang it, I'm behind on the other stories too), let me just list the schedule of events that will happen. Because by the way, the bet won't happen until 2-3 more chapters later, depending on what I want to write. This is literally the prologue chapter to all the other junk that's about to go down.
The next chapter is the — Reality Show!
Man, I've been waiting FOREVER to write it :) Can't wait!
Thank for everything guys XD
