Snowpoint In Giving Up!
(Nube POV)
I suppose the nickname that was given to me is Nube. So that is what I refer to me as, I never thought I'd need a name, they never gave me one but being called Nube gives me a feeling, like I'm unique. A bit more special than all the other Swablus.
I can Evolve if I want to but I been stopping myself. Just like Princess there are a few moves I want to learn faster before evolving. I am just smart like that, maybe I wasn't caught cause I always think I'm smarter than anyone and if my trainer tells me to do a move that doesn't make sense I use the best one instead.
It's cause I am smarter than all of them, I am very smart and that's why I believe to be the smartest from anyone on this team. This luxury ball is very comfy, I'm glad my trainer Juan caught me in it.
I was released.
"Well girls welcome to Snowpoint City!" Juan said.
We all looked around. It looked nice. I noticed Princess she had a poker face, I couldn't tell what she was feeling.
"Alright girls let's go." Juan said as we walked around Snowpoint City, he began talking to the locals.
"When will it be my turn." Princess coldly said out of nowhere.
Jay looked at her. "What?"
"You know, my turn to be his mate." Princess said.
I looked shocked, but I saw Rose be too high, Darkness looked bored and Symphony just frowned.
"Yea I wanted to know when I could be with my life mate as well." Symphony spoke nervously.
"Oh um.. I'm sorry... There is a change of plans..." Jay looked awkward as she walked.
"What do you mean?" Princess looked serious.
"What I mean is... I think I'll uh keep my mate... As... Only.. MY mate..." Jay looked very sorry. "I'm sorry... It's just... I really want him... To be... Mine... And only mine..." She frowned.
Symphony frowned and Princess looked outraged.
"What! You lying snake! You lied to me! To us!" Princess pointed at Symphony.
"I'm sorry... I'm sure eventually you two will find a mate" Jay said.
"...we only have one mate for life.." Symphony looked sad.
"You said you would help me! We could both be his mate!" Princess yelled.
"Oh that..." Jay frowned and then gave a small smile and said "I lied."
I could see Princess have a shocked face then snarled and used Surf on Jay hurting her. They both yelled.
"Jay!" Juan screamed seeing Jay be washed away a bit.
Princess then proceeded to use Brine on Jay hurting her again. However Jay refused to attack. Smart now he will believe Jay is the victim here. Pretty clever.
Jay started crying as she had a little bit of health left. Juan recalled Princess into her Pokeball.
"Are you okay Jay?" He told her making her drink Moo Moo Milk. She gave a soft nod. He released Princess. She didn't attack but glared daggers at Jay.
"What happened?" He asked Darkness. Princess kept yelling the truth and waving her flippers but one glare from Juan made her be quiet even if she still looked mad.
"Tell him we just had a little fight about girl problems, nothing else. Please." Jay told Darkness and Princess looked even more mad.
Darkness sighed. "Jay said they had a little fight over a girl problem, apparently the problem was Princess said Jay was ugly cause her thighs were too fat, Jay was hurt and didn't know what to say so she told Princess looked fat, they both got pissed and began to attack." She shrugged.
"Princess, I am very disappointed in you." Juan looked sad.
Princess looked ABSOLUTELY indignant having her beak opened and a mad but also shocked look on her face. "She's a bitch!" Princess pointed at Jay.
"Well this bitch gets to mate him whenever she wants like I did it last night, you're fat and ugly which is why master doesn't want to mate you and he never wil-" Jay was bitch slapped by the flipper of Princess.
Juan, Symphony and I had shocked looks on our faces. Rose just snickered smoking some more and Darkness had an amused look on her still bored face.
Jay looked mortified as she slowly touched the place where Princess slapped. Princess looked pissed off and she had tears in her eyes. She already expected to be recalled and was just waiting for it.
Juan started recalling Rose, then Symphony, then Darkness, then a shocked Jay and then, me.
(Juan POV)
It was only Princess and me.
I extended my hand at her and told her to grab it. She looked at it and grabbed it with her flipper, we walked near the ship part, exactly where you would find a Ultra Ball; on the game.
"How are you hun?" I asked.
"Prinplup." She glared at me.
"I'm sorry I got a bit mad you attacked my mate, it's just I kinda feel a bit over protective of her since I mated her last night and-" I saw Princess and she seemed to be growling.
"Uh do you not like her being my mate?" I asked.
"Prinplup!" She snarled nodding.
"But... Why?" I asked confused.
"Prinplup! Prin! Prin! Plup! Prinplup! Plup!" She kept yelling at me.
"Yikes. I have no idea what you're saying..." I took out my Dusk Ball.
I saw the bored looking Darkness come out.
"Darkness care to explain to me the truth this time?" I asked her.
"...You better make sure your little, mate, doesn't hurt me if she knows I said this..." Darkness drawled.
"I promise, now Princess, tell Darkness why you attacked Jay." I told her.
Princess began to talk to Darkness. Darkness looked at me boredly. "..She says she's mad cause Jay and her agreed to both be your mate and Jay said she would help Princess mate with you but now Jay said she wants you all to herself and won't share with Symphony or Princess..." Darkness looked bored.
I looked at Princess shocked and she looked down, but I could see her blushing.
"...ugh romance drama.. I don't even understand why it exists..." Darkness grumbled.
I kneeled down and looked at Princess who looked sad. I hugged her and I felt her be tense first but then relaxed.
"Well if you wanna be my mate you must be better than Jay at everything, including bed and she's absolutely amazing at it. But something you also have to be better is battleing, think you can focus on that one Princess?" I said.
Princess nodded.
"Do you know what Princess means?" I asked her.
She paused a bit and shook her head; no.
"Princess is a word we humans used, in the old times famous rich royal kings and queens lived, when they had children a boy was a Prince who would turn into a King, and a girl was a Princess who would turn into a Queen, you're my little Princess and you will turn into a big Queen one day." I told her.
Princess smiled.
"Now let's continue walking around here." I said and released all the Pokemon. Jay came out.
"Prinplup." She said.
"Lop?"
"Prinplup, prin, prin, plup, Prinplup, plup, prin, Prinplup, plup." Princess said sadly.
I had a what the fuck look on my face as I had no idea what she said.
"Lopunny, lop, punny, lop lop, punny, Pun Lopunny." She sighed rubbing her arm.
I looked even more confused.
"..Don't break your fleshy little head. They're just apologizing to eachother..." Darkness said boredly.
I smiled and kissed Princess.
Afterwards she looked shocked and touched her beak. She had a happy smile. Jay looked, annoyed to say the least as she hopped away into Snowpoint City, I sighed and followed her slowly with my Pokemon behind.
I catched up to her we found Barry. He said he had the TM Rock Climb to climb the stone wall nearby the outside perimeter of Snowpoint City cause that's where Team Galactic would strike next. I realized I also had Rock Climb, I found it in the snow and gave it to the old man, but he gifted it to me along with something else.
I found a lot of items, specially on Route 217. Oh well I teached Nube Roost and noticed none of my Pokemon could learn Rock Climb yet, hopefully that changes soon and told Princess to please be my lead pokemon. She still nodded.
After battleing a the trainers, doing the puzzle and healing up we went to Candice, her gym leader music played as she sended out Sneasel.
I had Princess up first but switched her to Jay. Jay was hit with two faint attacks from Sneasel. But with one Drain Punch she took her out and got HP back.
Next Candice sended a Abomasnow. It setted up a hail storm, i told Jay to Jump Kick. The Abomasnow attacked.
I then told her to use Dizzy Punch, The Abomasnow wasn't confused and still kept going, so I told her to use Drain Punch. Jay had almost fainted but took out the Abomasnow and got HP back.
Candice then sended Froslass, I switched to Princess. The Froslass attack, Princess was frozen solid. I used a Ice Heal on her and she thawed out. The Froslass kept using double team and then she made it hail and the battle field could clouded in a bit of fog.
He looked as the Froslass disappeared out of thin air and began to appear in different spots everytime, she kept saying her species name in a ghostly manner.
Then the Froslass kept using Shadow Ball. One Surf hit but then Princess fainted. I sended Rose and then revived Princess, the Froslass used a Ice Type attack, can't remember which one and fainted Rose. I sended Symphony and used Moo Moo Milk on Princess. Symphony fainted cause of the same ice type attack.
I sended out Princess and she missed, Froslass used Shadow Ball on her and Princess landed the Surf, the Froslass looked mad and used a critical hit Shadow Ball, Princess stayed with a sliver of health and I told her to use Brine.
The Froslass fainted and then she sended out Piloswine. I told her to use Brine, the Piloswine attacked and I told her to use Brine again, as the Piloswine charged at my Prinplup, Princess used Brine and It fainted, we won the badge of Candice.
I hugged Princess and she gave a small smirk even if she looked tired.
We healed up and began to leave Snowpoint City.
"Oi Juan, I Challenge you to a battle, regular 1 v 1, 6 Vs 6, We can recall pokemon and only one item can be used in the battle, you don't have to pay me if you lose I know you're poor unlike me so I'll pay you if I lose. Ready!" Israel took out a Great Ball from inside his Pink Jacket.
Israel's Theme of Electronic and Metal music played.
"Deal" I sended out Jay and he sended out Electivire. His Electivire gave a loud and powerful roar. I instantly cringed.
"Oh yea forgot to mention my Pokemon are stronger, way stronger. Electivire Thunder Punch!" He yelled and his Electivire charged. "Attract!" I tell her. She used the move and Electivire seemed to stop running and look at my Lopunny with love.
"Ugh you big dolt! Just hit her!" Israel snarled.
"Use Dizzy Punch!" I told Jay and she nodded as she went and punched the Electivire multiple times eventually making him confused.
"Ugh! Electivire use Brick Break!" Israel commanded and Jay was hit by the super effective attack, she yelled as she slid on the snow a bit and looked hurt but glared at him as she was still standing.
"Good you can keep up Jay, now they're almost out! End it with a Jump Kick!" I told her.
Jay ran and jumped up high in the air.
She kept going.
And going.
And crashed.
She was on the floor very weakened and the Electivire grinned looking at her, he rose his leg to stomp her face. I saw her pupils shrink a tiny bit from terror.
I recalled her to her heal ball and released her behind me.
"5 left but I can still keep going! Go Symphony!" I told her.
Symphony stood.
"Ha! You still have that weak Kricketune?" Israel laughed.
The Electivire smirked and did come get me motions with his hand while saying his species name.
"Symphony use X-Scissor!" I tell her. She runs towards the Electivire her arms glowing green.
"Ha! Show it how we do it with a Ice Punch!" Israel yelled. His Electivire grinned and his fist was covered in a light blue icy aura.
Symphony hitted him first fainting him but in a last ditch to attack he still hitted my bug type with a powerful ice type attack fainting her.
Double KO!
I recalled Symphony into her pokeball And I saw Israel return Electivire into his Great Ball.
He glared and threw out a Heavy Ball. It landed on the snow and then opened.
Rhydon roared.
I sended Rose and used a Moo Moo Milk on Jay, now she had full HP.
Rhydon used Stone Edge But missed.
I told Rose to use Mega Drain and she did.
Then he told his Rhydon to Earthquake. That hurted Rose a lot and I told her to use another Mega Drain. It hurted the Rhydon a lot but it still survived.
"Use Take Down!" He told it and he took down Rose but didn't seem to take recoil damage.
I returned Rose to her Premier Ball and sended Jay. "Use Attract!" I told her.
"No!" I heard Israel yell but then it seemed like his Rhydon didn't care. It looked back at him normally.
"Wait... She's a girl!?" I looked shocked. The Rhydon nodded. "Yep she's a girl, got anything wrong with that!" Israel snarled.
I kinda spaced out a bit from being shocked she was female. That was a stupid move... It gave him a free turn.
"Well... Then take her out with a Earthquake!" Israel quickly recovered. His Rhydon nodded and she began using Earthquake.
It hurt Jay but she recovered. "Use Drain Punch!" I told her. "Follow it up with a Protect!" Israel smirked.
Jay hitted the Rhydon But couldn't do any damage or get any HP cause of a protective barrier.
"Use Take Down!" Israel ordered and the Rhydon Used Take Down at Jay hurting her and Rhydon took no recoil damage. Jay was tired and I told her to use Dizzy Punch.
"Protect." He yawned confidently.
"Perfect, NOW USE DRAIN PUNCH QUICKLY!" I yell after baiting him out. I saw his eyes widened. "What!"
Jay then used Drain Punch getting HP back and making Rhydon Faint.
I cheered and Israel snarled. He returned his Rhydon into the Heavy Ball and took out a Quick Ball and threw it.
A huge Abomasnow roared as it now started to hail.
"Jay use attract!' I told her and she did that. I saw Israel smirk.
The Abomasnow didn't look affected.
"After you completely made my team be idiots twice in a row cause of that whore of a bunny I decided to find a type that would benefit and balance my team, while also being female. This Abomasnow is prime example of that! Now use Blizzard!" Israel yelled.
The Abomasnow used it and greatly hurted Jay. "Use Drain Punch!" I told Jay and she did that getting HP back. "Use Blizzard!" He said again and it landed. It did a lot of damage and I saw how weak Jay said but she kept pointing at her nodding. I knew what she meant.
"Go use Dizzy Punch!" I told her and she ran fast as she used Dizzy Punch on the Abomasnow confusing it. The Abomasnow hitted itself.
"Ugh, your HP is low, might as well go with a bang." he seeing seeing Jay run towards his Abomasnow again. "USE WOOD HAMMER!" He screamed.
The Abomasnow smacked Jay with her her now green arm and completely knocked her out. The Abomasnow took recoil damage and also fainted.
Double KO.
He sended out Floatzel who roared and I sended out Darkness. I saw Israel glare when he saw my Bronzor.
"Use Taunt!" He yelled and his Floatzel began to tease Darkness in their little pokespeech while also doing come get me motions with his hand.
I saw Darkness look pissed off.
I knew taunt meant I couldn't use Iron Defense, OR Confuse Ray anymore...
"Use Future Sight!" I told her and still glaring she did that.
"Use Ice Aqua Jet!" Commanded Israel.
"You WHAT!" I looked surprised.
Quickly the Floatzel grinned and used Aqua Jet to move fast but then made it so the water freezes by making both of his fists into Ice Punch. The Aqua Jet Began to freeze and by the time it hit Darkness it was Ice Aqua Jet.
I looked completely shocked.
"Haha! That's what I was hoping your reaction would be!" He grinned.
"I must admit Israel... I am Incredibly impressed but that's as far as you'll go, use Extrasensory!" I told Darkness and she did that.
The Floatzel easily took it and I saw Israel had the most smug look on his face. "Payback." He said.
The Floatzel Charged and used Payback at Darkness sending her flying, she was tired and I began to return her into her ball.
"PURSUIT!" Israel smirked.
The Floatzel moved at Incredible speed and used the powered up dark type move on my psychic type. He fainted her.
I looked shock. "Ha! I wanted to do that before I removed that pathetic move to replace it with something even stronger. Now send out one of your last two pathetic pokemon." Israel shrugged confidently as he returns Floatzel confident he could still beat me without him.
"Go Nube!" I tell her and my Swablu goes to battle. Israel gives an amused chuckle and throws out a Ultra Ball. His Dragonair comes out. He gives a loud roar as he glares at Nube. I wonder if he treats his pokemon really badly.. and that's why they roar? Maybe they're being hurt and begging for help...
"You used your Moo Moo Milk so you can't use any items, now I'll use this." He holded a Max Revive and revived his Abomasnow.
Fuck.
Just Fuck.
"Use Sing!" I told Swablu and she missed. "Ha! It missed! Use Agility!" He told his Dragonair and it did that.
"Sing Again Nube!" I told Nube and she did that. The Dragonair fell asleep.
"Now use Dragon Pulse!" I yell smiling.
"WHAT!?!?" I saw Israel's shocked look on his face as his Dragon type was hit by a super effective Dragon Type attack.
"Use Dragon Pulse Again!" I told her and she nodded as she used Dragon Pulse. The Dragonair was getting hurt but remember she was still a little Swablu so it didn't do much, but it did enough. "And again!" I said and she used Dragon Pulse. Dragonair opened his eyes and glared as he roared loudly
"Use Dragon Rush!" He told his Dragonair the Dragonair rushed towards Nube to attack.
It missed
"Dragon Pulse!" I tell her and she did that fainting the Dragonair.
I saw Israel scowl returning the Dragonair into the Ultra Ball and he sended out a Quick Ball.
His Floatzel returned as it roared
"Destroy that small bird with Ice Aqua Jet!" Israel commanded and his Floatzel used Aqua Jet and with his Ice Punch fists he froze it again
"Nube use sing!" I told her and she sung, Floatzel fell asleep, crashed and did lots of recoil damage to itself.
"Crap!" I saw Israel looked shocked.
"Now use Dragon Pulse!" I told Nube.
She shot it at the asleep Floatzel and knocked him out.
Israel snarled and threw another quick Ball.
Abomasnow roared as it kept hailing.
"Ready for Round Two! End that bird with a Hammer Arm!" He grinned
The Abomasnow ran towards her.
"Use Sing!" I told her but instead she used Fly. I had a frown on my face as she disobeyed but I guess it was for the best.
The Abomasnow missed and she landed hitting him. "Use Blizzard!" It missed. "Use Fly" I told her and she used Sing. The Abomasnow fell asleep. "Use Fly!" I told her and she used Dragon Pulse.
"Use Dragon Pulse!"
She used Fly.
"Looks like someone didn't train their pokemon." Israel gave an amused look. I blushed in anger, Nube Landed on Abomasnow the Abomasnow woke up and roared.
"Good, now hit that with a hammer arm!" He told the Abomasnow. She began running towards Nube.
"Use Fly!" I told her, she thought about it and then used Dragon Pulse. She was hit with the grass type attack sending her flying and making the Abomasnow take recoil damage.
"Nube! You have to learn to obey!" I told her. Nube rolled her eyes and used Roost. She now has all her HP back.
Oh I get it.
"Use Dragon Pulse!" I told her and she hitted the Abomasnow.
"Use Blizzard." He snarled, And the Abomasnow landed a powerful Blizzard, fainting Nube.
Fuck.
I looked back, Princess was watching the entire fight. She smiled at me.
"Go Princess! Use Brine!" I told her.
"Wood Hammer!" That jerk yelled.
However Princess was faster and ended Abomasnow. She leveled up and learned Drill Peck, we erased Peck.
"You still got that little Prinplup? Ha do you honestly think she can take out my Infernape!" He threw the Basic Pokeball and Infernape came out, he gave a loud angry roar.
"When we Mega Evolve!" He pulled his sleeve down a bit and showed me a black ring.
I looked shocked and felt my heart skip a beat. It looked like the ring Barry had, I looked at Princess. She smiled at me. "I still believe in you" I told her trying to ignore the glow in front of us. She nodded.
Then we saw Infernape, it looked like he was covered in a bit of more Roman Gladiator Gold Armor, the tip of his tail had a very big blue flame on it just like he had a big blue flame on top of his head and had gold spiky brass knuckles on his hands. He also had a confident huge smirk on his face.
Mega Infernape gave a powerful roar!
"Princess! I choose you!" I told her and she got in battle position.
"End that Prinplup with a Punishment Mega Infernape!" Israel yelled and his Mega Infernape did monkey noises as it began to quickly run towards Princess.
"USE SURF!!!" I told her she did that hitting Mega Infernape but he passed the tide wave and smacked Princess with the Dark Type move. "Quickly use Mach Punch multiple times!" He kept using Mach Punch on Princess she screamed.
"USE DRILL PECK!!!" I scream and her Beak glowed as she began packing the Infernape repeatedly the Mega Infernape growled. "Hit her with a Flame Wheel and use that wheel to come back here!" Israel told him.
The Mega Infernape used Flame Wheel on Princess, even if it wasn't very effective she was sweating, panting, had bruises and even bleeding at the amout of damage she took. The Mega Infernape used the flame wheel and went to his trainers side.
I looked at Princess she was.. too tired. I began to take out her pokeball and she slapped it away. I saw the look in her eyes, they were determination.
"Princess... Show them what you can do with Surf!" I told them and she hitted the Mega Infernape again. He looked pretty tired.
"That's it, I'm bored of this. Mega Infernape end that pathetic weak Prinplup with a CLOSE COMBAT!!!" he screamed and the Infernape began running towards it.
"Hold it..." I told Princess she looked nervous but stayed.
The Infernape began doing animalistic feral sounds as it came running closer, his blue flames were burning brightly.
"Hold it..." I told her. My Princess stayed still like a statue, she loyally obeyed.
The Mega Infernape was now close.
"USE BRINE!!!!" I yell and she did that. The powered up Brine hitted Mega Infernape. After the steam cleared off we see he had swirly eyes and was a regular Infernape Again.
"WHAT!" Israel yelled.
"We did it Princess!" I hugged her and she smiled at me, she suddenly began to glow.
Israel and I looked at her amazed as the small Prinplup began glowing bigger and bigger until suddenly she was a really big penguin, she roared.
"Woah you evolved!" I told her happily and she nodded.
Israel gave me money and then spoke "Yep, I guess that thing is now a Empoleon. Ugh I should really go train hard for our next battle, with THAT on your team I'll have trouble defeating you..." He recalled his fainted Infernape into his pokeball and left.
"I am so proud of you Princess!" I smiled at her and she nuzzled my face. I holded the TM Rock Climb. I could only erase Brine or Drill Peck, so I decided to heal all my pokemon, fly to the move deleter, remove Defog and reached her Rock Climb!
We went back to Snowpoint City and then to Route 217, used Rock Climb, found a Reaper Cloth and went inside the woods that would take us to lake Acuity.
In there I saw Jupiter knock out Barry's Mega Torterra with her Skuntank. It turned back into a Torterra again. "Y-you won't get away with this Team Galactic!" Barry yelled as Jupiter used a Hyper Potion on her Skuntank boredly.
"Are you done child? That was too easy... Your pokemon aren't bad, but you're laughably weak. You honestly though you could save the Pokemon of this lake? And become the Champion? Dream on little Kid. But ew it's so cold here, let's go back to the Veilstone HQ" Jupiter told a very sad looking Barry as she began leaving.
I felt really bad for Barry. Sure he was annoying and kinda weak but, he was still a good kid with a very kind heart. I stood in front of the exit and Jupiter looked at me in annoyance.
"Oh don't I know you... We met in Eterna City. Listen Team Galactic is gonna do something huge for everyone's sake. That's why you should keep out of Team Galactics Way! Don't come whining about poor pokemon and other trivial junk like that. Don't waste your time coming to our HQ in Veilstone. Now if you excuse me." Jupiter tried to leave but I blocked the exit glaring at her, Barry looked a bit happier seeing me not let her get away.
"Ugh, pest! You like fair right? 1 v 1. No items." She threw out her Skuntank and I selected Princess.
Barry looked amazed seeing my Empoleon.
"Use Surf!" I told her.
"Use Poison Jab!" She snarled.
Skuntank was hit and used Poison Jab. It seems it didn't hurt her much.
"Woah! Steel Types like your Empoleon can't be poisoned or hurt by poison attacks!" Barry smiled.
I'm glad Barry teached me something.
"Use Brine." I grinned.
Skuntank fainted.
I saw Jupiter have a shocked look on her face. "I beated you so many times so easily in Eterna City! When did you... Get this strong?!" She looked surprised recalling her fainted pokemon.
"When I started showing my Pokemon just how much I loved them! Something you clearly haven't done to yours!" I glared at her. My Pokemon cheered or nodded. Sometimes both.
Barry looked very proud of me.
Jupiter growled and sended out a Bronzong. He teleported Jupiter away. I sighed and walked towards Barry.
"... Yea that's right... I couldn't do anything against Team Galactic... That pokemon called Uxie... It was... Suffering.. I'm going to get tougher! It's not about winning or losing! That's not good enough... I have to be stronger! It's not enough to just want to be the most powerful trainer ever... It takes honest effort and a determined heart... I want to help, I wanted to help Uxie who was suffering but I.. I-i can't.." Barry started crying in front of me.
I looked really sad, I asked if Jupiter went to Veilstone City. They nodded and wiped the tears of his face. "Y-yeah their secret headquarters is on Veilstone City... But after fighting Jupiter I realized.. I can't beat them..." Barry looked sad.
"Don't worry Barry, go to train for me alright, get stronger and while you get stronger to save all the Pokemon on the Sinnoh Region, I'll storm their Veilstone HQ and end Team Galactic for good so they never make any Pokemon suffer like they did to Uxie." I told him.
Barry smiled "alright I will oh by the way! Professor Rowan told me go give this to you, it's a Mega Ring with a Key Stone" he nodded as he gave me the Green colored Mega Ring.
"But I don't have a mega stone.." I told him.
"Maybe, but you'll find it eventually." He smiled and he left. I also smiled, I placed on the Mega Ring with the Key Stone on it on my wrist.
I looked at my Pokemon. They also looked pretty determined or interested in taking down Team Galactic. So I flew to Veilstone City, healed and went to storm their HQ.
