I woke up and decided to switch my team up, again. But I was drawn to the fact that there where arms around me. I paused to think about why, then it all came to me in a flood.

"Oh crap," I whispered, then I felt a kiss on my right ear and moaned softly.

"Morning," Matt whispered as he noticed the sensitivity of my ear.

"I'm sorry I bitched at you last night," I whispered back.

"It's ok, let's get some food in us and move on," Matt stated as I got up lightly.

"Yeah, wait one second," I said, dragging Shuno with me.

"What the...I'm not fully awake yet," Shuno muttered and noticed we were in front the PC.

"You are going in now," I said, holding out his heal ball.

"Why me!? Haven't I given you sound advice?" Shuno complained, not wanting to leave Radora.

"IN!" I growled, Shuno sighed and stop resisting. I put him in the PC and I pulled out Whisper.

"H...hi," Whisper whispered, scared.

"Hey, I'm going to train the hell out of you," I stated and walked off. Whisper shyly followed me to my team and blushed lightly when he saw all my members.

"Blimey! You got out ta lil one? Why?" Blaire asked, intimidating Whisper.

"Because we need a grass on our team and Whisper is a good choice now shut up and let's go train him up to evolve," I stated and went to leave.

"Wait up, I need to train my team as well," Matt called following me from outside, trying not to drop his smoke as he ran to catch up. I trained my team a lot, for like hours. Then I decided it was time to head back, since my team was getting hungry. Matt and I walked back to the pokemon center and sat on the couches with all the sandwiches I had and made and we all ate until we were full. Then we all went to bed early for an early start the next day.

When we woke up I decided that it was time to get a new team player, so when the rest of my team and Matt woke up we headed to the cold storage. Once we got to the grass I looked down at Whisper.

"First, you touch this," I said, holding out the sun stone from around my neck. Whisper tentatively touched it then started to glow. Once Whisper was fully evolved, Blaire looked shocked and about to laugh.

"So, once ya fully evolved you get all puffy! Now that's a 'oot!" Blaire laughed, making Whisper look down.

"I'm...stronger now though," Whisper said, getting Blaire's attention.

"Oh, really now. Then go get the next pokemon," Blaire laughed some more.

"Hm," Whisper mumbled, getting a ball from me and walked off into the grass. Moments later he came back with a Vanillite, he was smiling lightly as he showed me before the ball went to my PC.

"And?" I asked lightly.

"Her...name is...Vanessa," Whisper told me lightly, getting Blaire to shut up.

"Well, 'e did it," Blaire muttered, looking away.

We headed over to the Cold Storage warehouse when Cheren showed up.

"Roshish! You think they're in there?" Cheren asked, as he stood by me and Matt.

"Well, yeah. Where else could they hide in town?" Matt asked, stating the obvious.

"Then let's go," Cheren muttered, still not liking Matt.

We walked in, and fought the trainers in the warehouse. We found a big container, and walked in to the container.

"Huddle around me fellow servants," Zinzolin chattered, being very cold.

"What a waste, but if you want out, you can leave with us," Cheren said, starting to shiver.

"Those who are against our...king...shall feel...our wrath," Zinzolin chattered more, his grunts stepping forward getting ready to fight.

"So, none of you heard about me?" I asked, looking darkly to all of them, as my team started to kick there asses.

"Wait!" #1

"Shit..it can't be." #2

"It is!" #3

"Why does it have to be her!?" #4

"So she's..?" #5

"We should get out of here!" #6

"Right behind you!" #7

"Wait for the rest of us!" #8

All the grunts went to leave when Clay showed up with some of the town folks.

"I can't believe y'all were actually tryin' to hide on me. Let's round 'em up boys," Clay said as the town folk caught them all and left with them to the gym. "And, as I promised, the gym be open for y'all ta challenge."

"Thanks," I said as Clay captured Zinzolin and left.

"Well, that was easy," Cheren stated, like he did all the work.

"Hmph," was all I said as I left the container. Matt shrugged and followed me.

Once we were out of the warehouse and headed up to the gym, we saw Ghetsis and more grunts. I growled at Ghetsis as Clay reluctantly let the grunts we caught go. I shrugged and went to Route 6 to train before the gym. I let Antoinette catch this route's pokemon and she came back and showed me what she caught.

'I named her Sindy.' Antoinette told me as the ball containing a deerling went to my PC.

"Good, now let's train for this gym," I stated and trained them. Matt wasn't too far away, doing the same thing I was. After a few moments, I figured we could give the gym a try. I headed back to Driftveil and started to the gym. Matt followed and caught my shoulder.

"Do you think you're really ready?" Matt asked, a little worried.

"I got this," I told him, giving him a kiss on the lips and walked into the gym.

"I hope so," Matt replied, walking back off to train.

I looked at the elevator, shrugged and went down. I then saw all the dark cave beauty. Then started to get a bit scared due to my fear of heights. I didn't show it as we fought all the gym trainers, but once we got to the elevator that went all the way down to Clay I started to show it.

"Well, I thought it be one of ya friends first," Clay responded as I walked forward.

"Let's just get this done," I muttered, trying to hide my slight fear.

"Fine by me," Clay said sending out his Krokorok.

"Oshy," I muttered, looking over at Oshy.

"I got this," Oshy said happily and pulled up one of his shells and used Razor Shell and instantly knocked it out. Then Clay, with a shrug, sent out his Excadrill.

"I got this one too," Oshy smiled happily as he waited to be hit. Excadrill took that time to use Hone Claws, Oshy shrugged and used Revenge and knocked it back. Excadrill, now mad used Slash. Oshy then used another Revenge and critical hit it and knocked it out. Oshy smiled happily up at me, then saw his Palpitoad.

"Whisper, you got this," I said, giving Oshy a lemonade.

"Hello puffy," Palpitoad said smirking.

"Bye," Whisper whispered as he used Giga drain and knocked out the Palpitoad as well.

"Well I'll be. I lost. So that's why Elesa took a shine ta ya, well you deserve this badge," Clay replied, handing me the badge and a charm of a rock which I gave right away to Oshy who added it to his bracelet.

"Thanks...what about the TM?" I asked lightly, looking at him as he was looking up to the top.

"You'll have ta wait for that. There is a problem at the entrance of Chargestone cave. Meet me thar and y'all get your TM," Clay replied. I shrugged and headed back up. I walked out of the gym and headed out towards Route 6 again.

Matt saw me walk by and just kept heading to the gym, not thinking much about it.

Once I walked out of town though, I heard a voice from behind me.

"Roshish! I want to battle you! I see you have the Quake badge, and it sure is shiny. Anyway! I want to see how much stronger I've gotten," Bianca explained, sending out her Herdier.

"Fine, Radora," I muttered, Radora looked set and crunched Bianca's herdier and knocked it out easily. Bianca then sent out her Pansage and went to healing her Herdier.

"Singe," I mumbled as Singe smirked walking forward.

"Down and Dirty," Singe said, now getting a slap from Oshy.

"That's getting on my nerves now. Stop," I muttered.

Singe sighed then used Flame Burst and knocked out the Pansage. Bianca sighed and sent out her Pignite. I just looked over at Oshy who rushed out and used a Razor Shell quickly. Pignite went down easily. Bianca then sent out her Musharna and I looked back at Radora who used crunch a couple times and took it out as well.

"I haven't battled you in a while. Well I wanted you to have this, so here," Bianca said, handing me HM 02, Fly.

"Thanks," I said lightly, trying to think of who to teach it to.

"Bye Roshish," Bianca said, walking to the pokemon center.

I continued on the Route and walked up to the cave and saw the electric net on its entrance.

"That's the problem I was tellin' y'all about," Clay stated, walking over to me.

"I see," I muttered, glaring through the net to the shadow I saw in the cave.

"I'll fix this," Clay said sending out his Krokorok and used bulldoze and knocked the net down. "Here, this be yours."

"Thanks," I said taking the TM for bulldoze.

"Now, ya seem to be a capable trainer, you'll go far. So ya keep at it," Clay said, leaving me at the cave.

"Fun. It's time to get some rest," I muttered, heading off to the pokemon center with my team.

Once we got in I saw Matt already asleep on the love seat. I shrugged and walked over to the couch and fell asleep as my pokemon got comfy on and around me.
