Happy 10th Chapter! That means I've reached a milestone already! ,,,Wait... got to get somewhere before crazy sets in.
Thanks to Music-Warrior-Nightsong, TJay-Drag-Latios'of'the'Cookie, Diego Zeyon, and Sanablades for reviewing. I'd also like to thank One with the Arcana for reviewing the first two chapters.

"One each?" Alex, who had been quiet as of yet, asked. James also had a slightly bewildered look upon his face. I could not care less, for I was currently floating above my body with no reason what so ever, and was kind of pissed about it.
Yes. Only one each. Your fates are all intertwined so carefully that for me to give two separate readings would be like splitting a man in two and still have him live.
I came close to losing my temper right there. He didn't want me to be awake for something that would affect my life? That scored almost as high as what Azelf did to me only a day ago.
The two trainers looked at one another, and I heard them gulp. It must have seemed odd that we were kidnapped just for this to happen. But apparently they did not think about it enough or care enough, for Alex touched one of the cards.
The Kadabra flipped it over, revealing a card with two people, a man and a woman, together with a cupid hovering over them. The Kadabra raised his eye as he stated the name of the card. The Lovers. Upright They mean for you a companionship that shall form later in your life. When I shall not say.
The Kadabra then looked over to James and he, almost reluctantly, chose a card. The Kadabra gasped as he revealed the card to be an upside angel pouring water into a goblet from another goblet. Reversed Temperance… He glared at James, and then went back to his reading. You shall make a decision later in life that will affect you far greater than you might think at the time. This will then prove to be a greater challenge that you might not overcome.
He then looked over at me. The floating me, not my body me. Cyndaquil. Choose now your card. I was startled that he actually saw me. But why then would he have put me to sleep if he had wanted me to choose a card?
I didn't actually get to figure out why before I became aware of my numb body. It hurt to actually feel after the few minutes of floating around. However I opened my eyes and tried to move my body towards the cards when I felt James pick me up. "Why does he have to have to participate in something like this? He's hardly a day old!"
There is much you do not know about life, human. Let him pick his card now, or your fate will be sealed. Again, James looked reluctant, but, after I squirmed around a little, let me walk over to the cards.
I poked one, and he turned it over. In the picture was a large tower, one that almost seemed to go on forever. It also looked to be under attack, but from what I was clueless about. Upright Tower…You will or recently have experienced change, whether for better or worse is up to you. But with this change will come a freedom that you were not able to fully enjoy before. It is up to you to enjoy it.
Either he was good at reading personal thoughts, or those cards did not lie. I for one haven't told anybody but Naru (and her only a little) about my being reborn. Of course, I had no one to really tell but her and Melody; or at least at that time I had only those two.
Together you begin your journey filled with a companionship with the strongest of bond. Those bonds shall be tested throughout your adventure, and once they may even break. But do not worry; for in the end, you shall all find a happiness and freedom never before found. These are your readings. The cards collected themselves and returned to wherever they had originally came from. The Kadabra sighed, looking weary. Go now and continue your adventure. I have done everything that was needed of me.
The two trainers, myself in James' arms, went to the door. We exited the house of the Kadabra, and went to find our way back to the street that we came from. We never heard this next part. Mew…
A small, pink kitten appeared in the room where and sat at where the trainers had been sitting during their reading. "Yes?" it inquired, wondering why the Kadabra had summoned him.
I have done as you asked. But the reading did not go the way it was seen.
The kitten fidgeted with its paws a little, and then went still. It took him another minute before he responded. "What do you mean?"
The boy got Reversed Temperance. A card almost as deadly as Death itself. The Kadabra went silent, and Mew did not respond. It was busy contemplating what could have changed the outcome of something so important.
The first words out of its mouth after it thought were as follows. "Celebi, you bitch…"
Sorry for the shortness. I guess I though it was longer than that. And yes, that is plot development at the end there. What kind is unknown to all but myself at this point.
Grammar? Spelling? I shouldn't have to repeat myself after every chapter like this.
