"How sweet, your pokemon was unharmed and the kid invited you over to his house. That doesn't sound bad at all, so why were you so apprehensive about telling me?" The cop asked, Calamari grunted at the cop's question.

"I didn't want to tell you because it was, i don't know, hard to say it. I robbed the kid, left him on the road, and ran away in a very rude manner and he doesn't even hold a grudge!" Calamari said, the cop smiled as she put her hand on his shoulder.

"Interesting, so you feel guilty that someone actually is willing to look behind your faults and..."

"Robbing a person is not a fault!" Calamari yelled, interrupting the cop. The cop smiled at his reaction.

"okay, so you just feel guilty that the kid was so nice to you and your Whiscash, yet you were so mean to him, is that it?" The cop asked, Calamari smirked. "I'm just mad that I actually got attached to the kid, which sucks because whenever I get attached to someone they die. It's sad, but that's the reason why a guy like me can't have friends." Calamari said simply, with as little expression as possible, the cop smiled.

"So, what happened when you went to his house?" The cop asked.

"So...you say you two are friends of Chowders and want to stay here for awhile until he comes back?" Professor Oats asked, Maylene and Calamari nodded their heads in unison, Oats smiled warmly at Maylene yet eyed Calamari with a strange stare.

"Well, I do have a little bit of room in my lab where you two can stay, but i'll have to ask a favour of you two if you want to stay." The professor said, Maylene grinned while Calamari shrugged. "Sounds good, but might I ask what the favour is exactly?" Calamari asked, Oats chuckled and smiled at Calamari.

"I'll tell you tomorrow after you two have a rest in the guest room, you two must be tired from your trip from Veilstone." Professor Oats said, Maylene laughed while Calamari continued to look at Oats. He felt in his gut that something wasn't right.

"Okay then, we'll do whatever favour you want from us tomorrow, come on Maylene, let's get some rest." Calamari said, he flashed a look at at Oats before walking with Maylene into the next room.

"A gut feeling that something would go wrong? Jeez, sounds like a lyric in an Avenged Sevenfold song." The cop said, Calamari raised his eyebrow at her words.

"A little piece of heaven, that's a good song. But I believe it losses it's momentum at about 5 minutes in, the wedding scene and the interruption of the priest always turns me off." Calamari said with a small grin on his face, the cop smiled at him.

"Well well Mister Calamari, you know a small bit about music." The cop said with a chuckle, Calamari smiled. "Yeah, well me and Camerupt have a history with music. It's how we met."

Calamari walked through the bike trail with his MP3 player in his hand and two headphones in his ears. At the moment he was listening to Tenacious D and walking with his eyes closed.

"Heck yeah Jack Black, you can't kill the metal!" The teenaged Calamari said out loud as he walked through the bike trail, humming along to the catchy song.

"Numel?" A voice said from below him, Calamari opened his eyes, and was shocked to see a small yellow pokemon lying down a feet inches in front of him. She appeared to be in pain, due to having numerous peurple bruises all over her. Calamari frowned and walked up to the injured female pokemon.

"It's gonna be fine little Numel, I don't know what happened to you but we'll fix it." Calamari said reassuringly, the little pokemon looked up at him. "Nu?" It said in a soft voice, Calamari smiled. "Yeah, it's gonna be fine Numel, i'll get you to a pokemon center and then we'll head to my house. We'll get a nice hot meal inside of you and you'll be feeling better in no time." Calamari said with a smile, Numel smiled.

"And to pass the time, why don't you put these on your ears. I'm assuming you like Audioslave." Calamari saidwith a grin as he placed a headphone on Numel's ear. Numel smiled happily. "Numel!" The small camel pokemon said with a smile.

Author's note: I thought it would be cool to show how Calamari met Numel, due to the fact that Camerupt is my favorite pokemon.
