My head pounded and my muscles ached, obvious to say I felt horrible. I couldn't really see so instead I felt around while still on the ground. Dirt and small pebbles were all I felt, similar to what I slept on but bumpier, I figured that I had probably just slipped and hit my head. Hard. I groaned in pain as I managed to stand; blurs of color began to fill my head. Light? There was never bright light in the ruins. The light hit me with a shock and I stumbled backwards, I felt someone else move as they yelped in pain.
"Bro, no. No stepping on me while Im sleeping." I was finally able to make put shapes, and unless mew was messing with me, I wasn't in the ruins. A small paw and claws were suddenly visible through my hurt eyes. A linoon. I turned my head to see a Noctowl, Furret, Persian, a lilipup, and, guess who, an eevee. CONNOR! I swear that boy will be the end of me! Why was he here wasn't he supposed to go home yesterday night.
Oh, yes, memories of last night's invasion filed through my mind. Noises, voices, and the sleep powder. They all stood in alarm seeming to know I would not, emphasis on NOT, be pleased with their little stunt. Connor had a smug look on him, obviously happy at my displeasure. What a jerk! I thought while stabilizing myself.
"Glad you could join the party, how was your nap?" He questioned knowingly. I didn't like him, or his friends, they acted like snotty rich kids. I uneasily rolled my neck, noticing pain that came with. If they just kidnapped me then why did my body hurt so much? I finally decided to ask what happened knowing they would laugh thinking Im extremely stupid, which they did.
"Whoa, you really aren't smart huh? Well when we went to kidnap you there were other people in your house already kidnapping you so we had a little battle that resulted in us winning, seeing as how were so great." He smirked, but he seemed to be hiding something. I scanned the rest of their faces and found that some of them were horrible liars.
"So, you rescued me?" I said trying my best to seem convinced and grateful.
"Why yes, yes we did. You can thank me later Efiel." He paused for a sec, smirking, what a freaking jerk. "It's later, Efiel…" Like hell I was going to thank HIM.
I turned to the rest of the lot and thought, what were they hiding. O my goodness, their so cheap. "How much did he pay the guy to kidnap me?" They seemed taken aback, but I had obviously struck gold. Connor, who looked utterly pissed, flashed me a glare before returning to his calm, cool, and collective manner.
"About 200, how'd you know?" The Noctowl inquired, however he was one of the few who could lie, quite easily may I add. His face and body language was very convincing. He seemed like an honest man with good composer. He had strong flawless wings and talons that curved smoothly like a river.
I turned my attention to the others before answering. The linoon had two dark furry lines down his back while the rest of his pelt was a nice cream color. He had simmering blue eyes and enormous claws; I assumed those to be the ones I woke up to. The furret had four dark fur circles and a dark head with light brown eyes and fur. She seemed to be the only other girl. And the only one who seemed to actually have a considerable personality. The Persian however, had tan fur all over and deep dark black eyes, he seemed cold and uncaring, maybe even bitter at heart.
"Y'all's faces were unbearably funny so I figured that you must've been lying. And 200 really? You could get a much better deal at the outskirts most people only pay…" Unfortunately I was interrupted by the rude Connor.
"Does it really matter how much we paid? I mean seriously who cares." He said that but he obviously didn't mean it, he grumbled and began walking. Wait, where did he think he was going?
"Umm, since you seem to know where you're going why don't you tell me exactly where we are hmm?" I eyed him curiously, why he wanted to kidnap me in the first place I didn't get. "And while you're at it why don't you tell me why you KIDNAPPED me? I thought the trip left already?"
"Yes and no, they left and we won't be able to catch them but we have permission to take you on your very own journey with us. How does that sound, little miss grumpy?" He whorled and smirking a very unsatisfied smirk. "And why do you care where we're going, you've been banished anyway. It's not like you can ever go back?" I just stood there mortified. What, banished, why?
Seeming to see my expression the noctowl explained. "Seeing as how we kidnapped you and you ARE from the normal kingdom and showed some interest in the trip, they think that you ran off with us to, 'go home' so to speak. Anyway because the rule is once you leave, you're gone, and you left, they banished you. I am, not really, sorry." He looked at me with absolutely no sympathy in his face or eyes. They meant for this to happen. They wanted me to be banished and make the only home I had left the normal kingdom. They wanted me to go on a trio and see what I wanted to evolve into, fine! I would evolve into whatever had the least amount of contact with them and they're, friends.
"You ok? You seem to be, out of it." Lance eyed me with concern. Why the heck did he care, ever since these people came into my life it had gone downhill and fast. They had created cracks and put splinters in my life. They had broke, my life. They had pissed me off!
"Yeah, Im fine. So where to first. If we don't want this to take forever we better get started." I stated cheerfully. They all showed obvious signs of shock. "What? Don't be flabbergasted because I decide to do what you asked of me? Is it a crime to want to evolve?" Even more shock crossed their faces. They were more than defiantly flabbergasted.
"For you, maybe. But no its, its fine that you want to go and we had figured that we would go to the thunder kingdom first. We just thought we would have to do a little more convincing than that, that's all." Connor didn't seem very convinced about my 'sudden change in attitude' and neither did the noctowl. They were both peering at me. It was very unnerving I must say.
"And why must we go to the thunder kingdom first?" I decided to change the subject, but they did not stop peering at me. In a way though noctowl was looking at me differently than Connor, he had more of the 'misunderstanding' look than noctowls whose was more 'distrust'.
"Because, when you look at the map, it's the closest one other than the water but we want to go there last. We don't want to have to pass through here again. Here take a look." Lance stated while pulling a map out of his bag. I had never seen a map of the island before. I wonder what the island looks like. Wow, this is very intriguing.
(Map…hehe I feel like Dora the explorer…Map! Hehehe its fun…)
Looking at the map I realized that we were real far from the normal kingdom. I wonder how long it took them to get here and find me; no wonder they didn't give up very easily. Hills, and mountai-ns, and oceans, and forests I had never seen. This feeling of being lost was very new to me; I had always known where I was going in the ruins.
I looked up to see that everyone else was heading, west? Wait that can't be right? I thought we were going to the thunder kingdom, so didn't we have to head north? "Shouldn't we be going north if we want to get to the thunder kingdom?" I asked in a very curious tone. Connor sighed a very heavy and impolite sigh. When he turned around he seemed very irritated. I had pissed him off. Life accomplished. I noticed the noctowl look to the sun like I had, which was setting behind us instead of to our left.
"Ugh, we ARE going to the north can't you see that? Why do you have to be so annoying? You act like a little know-it-all sometimes..." He turned back around and began walking. Oh IM the know-it-all, how arrogant. I puffed in anger and began to protest when someone else's voice stopped me.
"She's right; the sun rises in the west and sets in the east. And right now it should be setting seeing as how late it is, and it's setting behind us when it should be setting to our right." It was noctowl. So he knew some survival tips to? I wonder why he knew and nobody else did. Connor and the others just grunted in response and began walking the other way. Ha, his pride was probably hurt, his ego to hopefully. I began walking next to the furret; she seemed nice enough to take to during our endeavor. And she looked to be quite funny to.
Meanwhile…
"FIND HER!" bellowed a very angry Gengar. Nancy just stood in disbelieve in the corner, something was wrong. Efiel had said that she didn't want to go on the trip, and she knew Efiel wasn't lying when she said that. She hadn't just left leaving Nancy and all her things behind; Gengar was hiding something, some big detail that kept the truth from her. She had to find out what he wasn't telling her.
Yeah, yeah 'they kidnapped her!' so typical, oh well. She had to go on the trip otherwise there would be no story. Oh and, not to make fun of my own character buuuuuut, every time I think of Gengar I think of him as a fat old man…lol…o and don't hate Mr. map, it's not his fault he sucks. It's my creative skills. Mr. map…hehe…MAP! GO!...c: yay
Wait never mind...it wont let put the map that i spent over an hour making in but i made it te picture so that i have one...great now im pissed...excuse me for i must go sulk in a corner now...=c
