I'll Remember You

Disclaimer: I don't own Hamtaro.

This always happens!!! Always always!!! In every fic! My first chapter's always right, just perfect, then I start chapter two and I get lazy with details and start writing shorter paragraphs and it's almost like the characters have no emotions!!! Arhg!! I will NOT make this next chapter look worse then the first...okay, I think it already does, but AY!!! Just...please enjoy!!!

--Chapter Two--

Sandy opened her eyes slowly to the blinding sunlight coming from the window. She turned to her other side so she wouldn't have to look at the sunlight. 'I should've slept in my house' she thought remembering how the night before she had an argument with herself over whether she should sleep in the little house or on the nice comfortable woodchips out in the middle of her cage. That was her favorite spot to sleep in. She didn't know why, but it just was.

Sandy sat up, deciding that if she wanted to get more sleep, she wouldn't be able to. She went to go get a drink of water and something to eat. 'Hm…don't know what these are, but they taste good," Sandy said trying the new scrumches yummies that Hillary bought her. 'Hillary only buys me new food when she's feeling sad about something…hm…' She took an armful and stuffed them in a small bag to take to the ham hams. She squeezed herself under the window, which was barely open. She was about to climb down the vines when she saw that Hillary hadn't left to work. She was outside talking to Noel. 'Huh…? What's like going on?' she climbed down the vines and crawled behind a bush. Hillary may not have left to work, but it looked she was on her way. She had her gymnast outfit on, well she had a jacket over it, and she wore sweatpants too. She was definitely going to work. Her hair was in a ponytail and she had her headband on. So why hadn't she left? All these thoughts ran through Sandy's mind. Something was wrong.

"I don't understand. I was told that they were in need of students for their new teachers. So I sent them an application. I thought they'd accept me." Hillary sighed.

Noel rubbed her back comfortingly, "Don't worry, they probably just had a lot more students send in applications too, and…you know, that school's in America. So you're application probably just got there a bit later."

"You're probably right…but a waiting list? Come on, what school puts students on a waiting list when they've got a whole set of new teachers. They couldn't have gotten that many students…"

Sandy tilted her head. 'Waiting list?'

 "Kick it over this way!! I'm open!" Hamtaro ran in front of Dexter to keep him from blocking the kick. "Stan I'm open!"

Stan kicked the ball towards Hamtaro who successfully kicked it into their goal. "SCORE!!! WE WIN!"

Maxwell gave their team the scores: 10-0

"Well it's not entirely fair. We've got Snoozer as a goalie," Dexter complained.

"Oh stop yur complaining you sore loser. You lost, we won, that's that." Howdy said, laughing.

Dexter sighed, "…you're the only sore loser around here…" he mumbled to himself.

"Goooo Team!!! T-E-A-M! Team! Team! Gooo team!!!!" Bijou and Pashmina cheered. They threw their pom-poms in the air. "Whoo!!"

"Yeah! Whoo! Go cheerleaders!" Stan said joining them. The girls sweat dropped. Of course, he's always doing that. Nothing new about Stan flirting.

Pashmina took Bijou out to the side. "Bijou, Sandy hasn't shown up. Think something's wrong?"

"I hope not. Zat would be awful." Bijou's accent once again kicked in. It was strong when she was worried.

"Ookwee," Penelope said jumping up and down.

"Penelope seems worried," Pashmina said.

"Ookwee!!!"

"Calm down Penelope, she'll come. I hope…I'm thinking that Hillary got accepted into that school in America." Pashmina said quietly, hoping that what she was saying was wrong.

Bijou gasped, "Oh no Pashmina, do not think such a horrible zing." She hugged Pashmina, "Sandy is not moving away, do not worry about it."

"yeah, you're right," Pashmina said.

Bijou saw Penelope jumping up and down and was getting quite dizzy, "Penelope, what are you jumping up and down for?" Penelope stopped jumping up and down and pointed towards the top of a small hill. "Oh Pashmina! Zhere she is! See, I said everything was good, no?"

Sandy was standing at the top of a hill talking to Maxwell. She had a bag with her and was giving some of whatever was inside to Maxwell.

"Hm…these are good. What are they?" Maxwell asked, munching on what Sandy had eaten for breakfast.

"I don't know, but they are pretty good." she smiled at him. They held paws and walked down the hill to the others. Sandy was afraid to ask what a waiting list was. It could mean that she'd have to move, and she didn't want to know that.

"Oh, Sandy's here!" Boss said. "Now I can announce what I've got planned for next week." He stood on rock and everyone gathered 'round to here what he had to say. Sandy went to go join Bijou, Pashmina, and Penelope. They had all greeted each other and listened to what Boss had to say. "Now I know that for a while, I've been talking about a certain hiking trip up to Acorn Mountain." The hams murmured and spoke silently to each other.

Panda spoke, "But Boss, we've been to Acorn Mountain, you said before that it was a trip to a whole new place." The others agreed.

Boss hit his shovel on the rock to quiet everyone, "I know I said it was to a whole new place, and Acorn Mountain IS a whole new place. It's summer! Last time we went it was during Autumn. The trees were all losing their leaves, the grass was turning brown. It was practically about to snow. But now the cherry blossoms are at full bloom, and the acorns are bigger and shinier then before. It's the perfect getaway summer trip."

The ham hams spoke again, this time with much more enthusiasm and louder. Boss smiled, he couldn't wait to go. He wanted to go up and pick all the acorns and cherry blossoms that he could pick just for Bijou. She'd love them all.

Sandy went up and whispered something into Boss' ear. She gave him one of the seeds she had in her bag. His eyes went wide. Sandy passed the bag over to him. "Ahem, another announcement. Sandy's owner, Hillary, bought her new seeds to eat, and they're the best seeds I've ever tasted. She's brought enough for everyone to try." all the hams piled up to get some seeds. Various "Hms" and "these are delicious" were heard from them.

Oxnard ate his in one bite, and went up to Sandy, "Sandy, are you bringing these on the trip?" She nodded and he smiled, "Oh good." Oxnard, Oxnard, always eating.

"Hey! I know what these are!" Cappy said turning to Panda. "Panda, do you remember when you were building that shelf to replace my old busted one?" Panda thought for a while then nodded. "This is what Kip had given me that day, when I came home, and the next day I went to go see how you were doing with shelf and gave you some!"

"Oh yeah! I remember!" Panda exclaimed.

"Sandy!" Cappy called over to the tiger striped hamster. "These are called Hamster Bites. I don't know what they're made of, but that's what they were called. They're not found anywhere here. It's hamster food from America. You can only buy it at pet shops, but they're really expensive." His cap fell over his head when he was done.

"Really?" Sandy said. She was impressed, that was a lot of information Cappy had in his mind to let out all at once. She lifted his cap, "wow, thanks for the info."

"Anytime," Cappy smiled.

Sandy smiled too, then something came to her, 'American food?'

So what do you think? A lot less mushy (and more boooring darnnit!) from the last, no? lol, this chappie was more focused on all the ham hams. I don't like focusing the entire fic on just one character. I want all the ham hams to be a part of my fics. Yeah, Sandy's the star in this, but I'm not giving her all the spotlight still, lol. Anyways, review if you want. Remember, flames are allowed.(did it not suck compared to the first chapter?!)
