Shali and Busaliss battle Zal and Growl.

Chapter 4: Crushed

"Whew! Close call!" sighed Zal. Shali was closing in. "Hey Zal! I forgot something! Want to battle?"

"Um, sure," replied Zal. Zal pointed the SP at the ground and turned the dial. Growl's DNA Downloaded and appeared in front of Zal. Shali downloaded hers. It was like a large green rat in red socks and a blue skirt made of leaves. "Busaliss! Get ready!" she cheered. "I won't give up," replied Busaliss. "Shocking," said Zal, obviously a bad pun.

"Remember, Busasaliss. You can use your Pedal Gun," whispered Shali.

Growl started out by throwing an electric needle. Busasaliss sliced it, taking twice as many hits. Growl laughed. Busasaliss had what appeared to be a green gun. She shot at Growl constantly. Growl took several blows and collapsed. Growl managed to get on his paws. His tail started to burn a bit. "Growl! Fire tail!" cried Zal. Growl saw this, feeling no pain. He flared up and launched a fireball at Busasaliss, defeating her before falling down to rest.

"Need some rest?" Zal withdrew Growl. Shali returned Busasaliss to the Gryons SP.

Guess what?

ME TIME!

Ok. Growl won. They can train themselves. And Growl has a new nature. Scotil Nature. 1 Ability so far. Fireball. What's the other skill?

Shali said, "Nice match Zal."

Zal was alone. So was Shali.

(Song)

Simple and Clean

Shali: You're giving me too many things
Lately you're all I need
You smiled at me and said,

Zal: Don't get me wrong I love you

But does that mean I have to meet your father?
When we are older you'll understand
What I meant when I said "No,
I don't think life is quite that simple"

Both: When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go

Zal: The daily things that keep us all busy
Are confusing me
That's when you came to me and said,

Both: Wish I could prove I love you
But does that mean I have to walk on water?
When we are older you'll understand
It's enough when I say so
And maybe some things are that simple

Shali: When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go

Both: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothing's like before

Both (Still): When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go

Shali: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothing's like before

Zal: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothing's like before
