A/N: Okay. I'm not sure I made it clear last time so, this chapter is NOT affected by the votes. Its this chapter, and then the votes affect the next chapter. So now we see who this story is really mainly about. Like I said, it's not Calamity. Much as she's a part of it closer to just after the half-way point. Now,
Story time.
He opened the door to their room, saying nothing to his roommate, as he allowed her to place her belongings near the bed that was obviously meant for her. She set her things down, and ran a hand through her hair, before getting up to leave. He just watched her, staring until she took the unspoken hint. "What?" she asked, wanting nothing more then to get to wherever she was going. "Where do you think your going?" he asked her. "To wherever you get food here." She responded, opening the door and starting to walk out. He made no attempt to move, and simply replied, "Which is located . . .?" He wasn't one to be amused by such a simple victory, but his roommate certainly wasn't happy about it, as he moved in front of her to lead the way. "Fuck you, Cat-Freak." Ashley muttered, looking pissed.

Later
"'Bout damn time. Fuck off Cat-freak. Hmph." Was all Ashley had to say, as she walked to an empty table, setting her gun down before going to the counter and ordering a coffee and a pastry. After sitting down, she was approached by Ness, who seemed eager to meet the new first timers. "Hello. I'm Ness. What's your name?" he asked, smiling. "None of your business, little shit." She growled back. "He-" "Piss off." She said, cutting him off as he began to speak. Ness stomped off, angry about the way he'd been treated by Ashley. Ashley just sat there, drinking her coffee like nothing out of the ordinary had happened. The matches weren't until the next day, so everyone had a chance to prepare, and rest or acquaint themselves with the facility. There were two pools in the building, a large one on the first floor, with several things such as diving boards, a water slide, and plenty of pool toys to go around. And a small one on the 3rd floor, with two ladders on opposite ends for climbing out. Apart from that, however, it was essentially a box filled with water. Ashley had no intention of swimming with everyone else however. There were also four training rooms, with weights and some other stuff that may be needed. On the 3rd floor, one of the training rooms held only 5 sandbags hung from the ceiling. Again, Ashley had no intention of associating with anyone in the tournament. She was here to fight, not to make friends. Besides, she had enough friends back home, even if they couldn't help her. Thinking of home, and what was there caused her fiery spirit to dim a bit, and the slight sadness and fear were shown in her eyes. She pushed the thought away, and hardened her gaze as she glared into her coffee. She could feel someone's eyes on her, but took a moment to respond to their presence. "What the fuck do you want?" she snapped, trying to sound like she usually did, in case whoever it happened to be was someone she'd already made enemies with. "You really should have more respect for your elders, Ashley. You are Ashley, right?" she looked up, surprised more by the unfamiliar voice than by him knowing her name. She figured he was probably a friend of Mewtwo or Ness. She looked up to see a tall, buff looking man wearing cameo. "Who the hell are-" She started, but was cut off by him. "Snake. Just call me Snake." He said, smiling pleasantly. "Whatever. Now we're back to where we started, what do you want?" she snapped, again. "Seems you really aren't too friendly with others. You seem a little distracted, is something the matter, Ashley?" he asked. "Yea, you." Was her answer. Snake took the hint, and left. "See you around, Ashley." He said as he walked away. "Piss off." She said, glaring at his back as he left. She picked up her gun and left her coffee at the table. She had long since finished her pastry, and planned on returning to her room. She knew her roommate wouldn't be leaving for a while, so she left on her own.

Some Time Later
"What the fuck? I've already been here three times! Where the fuck is the room?" she was in one of the training rooms, next to the small pool on the 3rd floor. At least she had memorized the way to this room. So she could find it and the smaller pool. Sadly, that was all she could find. After spending hours wandering around and losing track of just how many staircases she had gone up or down, she was hopelessly lost. She was about to scream in frustration, when she heard a calm, slightly smug voice. "So, you got lost?" it said. The voice was testing her last nerve, it belonged to her roommate, Mewtwo. "Shut up! What the fuck do you want, Cat-freak?" she yelled, almost ready to pull her gun and shoot him. "You know, I could just leave you here. Unless you're enjoying yourself, running around like a lost child." He stated, smugly. Ashley felt a familiar rush of feelings. All too familiar. And once more, managed to express them in one simple sentence. "I hate you." Mewtwo chose not to respond to her, and lead the way back to their room in silence.

Yes loyal readers, this story, is about Ashley. The rating has been upped to T, and things will go from there. I think I've waited long enough now, that I'm going to close the votes. I decided to close them this morning, and have already written the next chapter, it should be up by tomorrow. Now for some trivia.
What do you think will happen to Ashley:
-Noting that I can be really mean
A. She'll get sick, and go to the smaller pool for a swim, pass out, and nearly drown, with Mewtwo coming to the rescue.
B. She'll lose a bet with Roy, and have to wear a christmasy outfit, and sing a christmas song(YES I THINK IT WILL TAKE THAT LONG TO FINISH THIS STORY, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THIS CHAPTER WILL BE UP AT CHRISTMAS - if it is this chapter)
C. Mewtwo will catch her masturbating, and calling out his name.
lolz. See? I am evil.
