(A/N Sorry I haven't updated for a while. I had homework, and science takes
me about 3 hours whenever we have crossword puzzles. So, yeah. On with the
fic!)
Artemis' Adventure
"We're going in circles," I growl. Jake looks back at me and glares.
"You lead us, if you're so brilliant," he retorted. Great comeback, by the way.
Tina whimpers. "Come ON, guys. My nails are all dirty and my legs ache." I realize that I should not be annoyed with Jake; Tina is the annoying one.
"I'm sorry to hear that," Jake says. His voice is grave and serious, and I don't catch any hint of sarcasm.
This, of course, makes me laugh. Tina and Jake don't realize the hilarity, and look at me like I'm crazy. I collapse on the ground shaking, whilst Jake and Tina stare rudely at me.
When I'm finally calmed down and we're walking again, I hear a faint rustling in the bushes. Apparently I'm not the only one who hears it, because Jake stops and Tina cowers behind him. Jake puts his arms out in front of her.
Out pops a sentret. The scene is very stunning, with the sentret scared to death, and Jake heroically protecting Tina from this harsh evil. I almost laugh again, but I hold it back.
Tina completely destroys the moment, though, and squeals in delight. She whips out her trusty pokeball, and throws it in front of the little fuzz ball.
"Chikorita, GO!" she exclaims. The Pokemon responds by repeating its name in a high pitched voice.
"Uhh. Razor leaf!" she yells. Chikorita stands there, dumbfounded. "Okay. Solar beam!" No response. "Oh. Umm. Tackle?"
Finally she says something chikorita knows. The Pokemon rams into poor sentret, whom still has no idea about what's going on.
Poor little sentret has no clue, and curls up into a little ball, a defense curl. Chikorita has no idea how to battle or listen for instructions, though, and batters the sentret 'til it uncurls.
Tina throws her pokeball at the dizzy ball of fluff, and watches intently while it twitches. Once. Twice. Three times. Then, it stops.
Accompanying this is a screech from Tina. "Yay! I caught a Pokemon!"
She jumps up and down, as Jake and I watch, glad we are I the woods rather than where someone might see.
"Alright, let's go," I say. So, we continue on our journey to nowhere.
After walking a little, I hear Tina's annoying voice. "How come we don't see any Pokemon? Everyone always talks about seeing tons on Pokemon and junk and all we've seen was that cute thingy."
"You probably scared them all," I respond, rolling my eyes.
She frowns. "No really," she says. "Why?"
"They were probably only exaggerating," Jake explains. "Besides, those were the people trying to get us to go out on our "Pokemon Journey"." He makes those quotation marks with his hands when he says "Pokemon Journey".
"Oh." We're all quiet for a moment, and then Tina says, "I hope we find more cute Pokemon."
"I don't," I mumble, but they ignore me.
"I want a yanma. What about you?" Jake addresses this to me.
"I dunno. Something. An electabuzz, maybe," I say.
Tina inspects her nails, and then digs through her backpack. After taking out a file, she begins to care for her nails, like it was a very important task.
We walk on in silence for a while, before Tina whines, "I'm tired," as if she were completely exhausted from filing her nails.
"It's not even dark yet, and we finally got going in a straight line. We can't stop now," I tell her. She bites her lip.
Tina sighs; looking at me obviously does not make me stop. She begins to hum, an annoyingly high pitched tune. I know that this is her final attempt.
I don't pass her test, and my eye starts twitching. Jake doesn't pass it either.
"Alright, alright. We'll stop soon, just don't hum."
Tina smiles innocently. I know that coming with her was a mistake.
(A/N So, what'd ya think? It was a bit longer than the last chapter, I believe. Please R&R! And thank you t everyone who's been reviewing!)
