Me: Okay, I realize that Phoebe is being like bi-polar right now, but I'm hoping that I'll figure out why I made her have such a mood swing really soon.

Salazar: YOU MEAN YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW? WHAT IF SHE JUST DECIDES TO KILL ME OR SOMETHING?

*Salazar and I keep squabbling while a random Omanyte walks up*

Random Omanyte: Draconis Kitten Sweetie doesn't own Pokemon. *froths at mouth and starts gnawing on Salazar*

Salazar: GET IT OFF! *runs around screaming and flailing while the Omanyte chews on him and I laugh my ass off in the corner*

*PMDEOT*

Beach Cave Floor 2

I walked down the corridor with Phoebe following me, still humming her crazy tune. It was really bothering me. I can't begin to explain why, but that stupid tune of hers made me want to drown myself in the shallow pools that were every where. Or maybe her being so psychopathic was. Or maybe I was just crazy. That would make a lot of sense. The walls kept getting narrower, so much so that we eventually turned sideways and shuffled sideways to the next cave. Not only that, but I think she was humming louder.

"Stairs!" Phoebe all but screamed and ran over to them, jumping up in joy and shooting up them like a rocket.

I am so confused.

I followed her up the stairs, and prayed she didn't find trouble yet. I didn't know who I would feel worse for, Phoebe or her enemy.

Beach Cave Floor 3

I walked into an empty room. Phoebe wasn't there, nor were any wild Pokemon. I was completely alone.

"Phoebe? Where are you?" I called out, and started wandering around in an aimless search to find my psychopathic Ralts friend. Maybe I should have just proceeded without trying to find her.

I entered another room while calling for Phoebe, which of course, woke the three Kabuto that were sleeping next to each other. Damn it.

"Ummmm, I'm just passing through, no need to Harden your shells or slowly come towards me as a collective whole…" I said as they did just that. They were growling and hardening their shells, and I think they were sharpening their claws by rubbing them together.

"Seriously, I don't want to fight with you." I said backing up and putting my hands in a surrendering position.

"You invaded. You will fight now. You will die!" They said at the same time, and I cursed myself for ever getting myself into this.

They all jumped at me and attempted to gouge out my eyes (too bad they couldn't jump that high) with their evil little claws, and I got hit by 2 of those Scratches in an attempt to avoid them.

"Ow!" I exclaimed and fell backwards and rolled away from them, when I heard humming down the corridor. It sounded like Phoebe was lost by now.

"PHOEBE OVER HERE!" I shouted and I heard a rapid increase in footfalls and she ran into the room angrily. She growled at them, lowering their attack and I set up Endure, in case they all attacked at once again.

They started making all sorts of incoherent sounds (sounded like clicking) and two of them scurried off towards Phoebe, shouting half-sentence threats.

Phoebe used confusion on one of them, making it twitch and whine. It started hardening it's shell to try to fend off the attack, but it wasn't really working… I saw the other Kabuto jump on her side and she growled at it and started swatting at them and using confusion.

I was snapped out of watching Phoebe when the Kabuto to my side lunged and scratched at me.

I grunted in pain and used Quick Attack on it. It didn't necessarily do much (what with all the frickin hardening it had been doing), but it knocked it back a foot or two.

"No! You die! Bad!" It growled and scuttled after me as I backed up towards Phoebe. My hope was she would help me with this. It scratched me again and I could feel the Endure work as it tried to knock me out. I couldn't necessarily watch were I was walking backwards, so I found out a bit too late as I hit the wall about 10 feet from Phoebe struggling with her attackers.

"You die now!" The Kabuto yelled and lunged at me. I dodged to my side and heard a click. I looked down in confusion at the green arrow I had just landed on. It lunged again and I backed up desperately, and it landed on the green arrow. It seemed to glow a little bit, and it started to panic.

"No! Defense back to normal!" It said panicked and my eyes widened. If there was ever a time to beat this thing, it would be now! I used a barrage of Quick Attack as it desperately tried to harden it's considerably weaker shell, and it finally went down. Phoebe walked up to me, apparently finished with her Kabuto, and growled at me.

"Try to keep up next time!" Ashe said venomously, and I felt like I could reach up and grab the exclamation mark and question mark mentally forming above my head.

"What?" I said dumbly and she glared at me.

"If you had just kept up with me that wouldn't have happened!" She hissed and I followed wordlessly as we continued to the next staircase.

Beach Cave Floor 4

I was still silently following Phoebe as she fumed along. We entered the next floor and a Shellos was waiting for us. It wasn't necessarily expecting us… It looked up in confusion, and jumped nearly 10 feet when it saw us. Phoebe's eyes widened and she ran the other direction. I watched Phoebe run dumbstruck, and was (of course) caught completely off guard when the Shellos used mud slap on me.

"Gah!" I jumped up and landed about 2 feet from it. I readied Endure (not fully healed yet) and shot at it with quick attack. It used harden and shot mud slap at me again.

"Enough with the hardening!" I growled and used Quick Attack on it twice in quick succession, knocking it out. I felt some sort of strange power well up in me, and couldn't exactly pinpoint what it was, so I just shrugged it off and moved on.

*Pokemon*

When I found Phoebe again, she was crouched in a corner in a feral position, growling at a Shellder, who looked to be in a very similar position. I edged around it, and coming up behind it, used Quick Attack, successfully knocking it out. Phoebe looked up and growled, then dashed off to the next room. I watched shocked and dashed after her, only to see her running up the stairs.

"Phoebe wait!" I called and ran up after her.

Beach Cave Bottom

I arrived at the bottom of Beach Cave, only to see Phoebe and Koffing in a heated argument, with Zubat flying over her singing all sorts of crap about how she'll never get back her Relic fragment back.

Looks like we finally found them.

*Pokemon*

Me: Well now I finally came up with the reason that Phoebe is all crazy and such!

Phoebe: You are so mean to me!

Salazar: I have to deal with that?

Me: I know! And yes.

Phoebe and Salazar *groan and shake upper half of body in strange way and walk away*

Me: *going up to Salazar. Grabs leash and chains him to a rock*

Salazar: Why?

Me: So you don't do any more fanfiction hopping!

Salazar: *looks up at me with kicked Growlithe face*

Me: *turns away so I don't see it*

Phoebe: So…?

Me: Bye!
