I'm really tired right now. I'm eating some delicious Jell-O and writing chapter 30. I feel like I need to put up cliffies just for the fun of it, so I'm going to try to put a cliffy this chapter! Oh, so far no one has been announced a winner, so keep guessing!
Chapter 30
Drew's POV
I really hate Simon right now. No one should make May blush, but me! Wait, why do I care? I don't care. Simon can flirt with anyone he wants. I don't care at all. Not even in the slightest. It still irks me, though. Simon is a dead man, no he's not! Yes, he is! Oh, great they're looking at me.
"Hey, Drew, we're going." May said. I snapped out of my thoughts and started walking with Gary smirking at me.
"C'mon Drewsie, we wouldn't want you to get left behind." Gary said using baby talk.
"Delightful." I replied not knowing what else to say.
"Aww, is someone cranky wanky?" Simon joined in. I rolled my eyes and ignored them.
"Oh, yes he is! Oh, yes he is!" Gary chimed in. I swear I could feel my eye twitching.
"C'mon Drewsie Wewsie, we don't want you to be cranky wanky. We want you to be happy wappy." Simon said. I felt my fist clench tightly.
"Shut it or I will!" Misty growled.
"Sheesh, we were just trying to have fun. No need to have your panties in a twist." Gary declared.
"Now now, we must think of the girls, right?" Simon answered.
Gary coughed, "Suck….up." He coughed loudly after every word.
"Hey, just because I'm a nice guy doesn't mean you need to be mean to me." Simon stated.
"Yeah, because I'm so mean." Gary said sarcastically.
"Don't use sarcasm on my mister!" Simon scolded.
"Yes, mother." Gary sighed and then rolled his eyes. I rolled my eyes at them. They're just so retarded sometimes. I wondered if the rest of these tasks were going to be so easy, so far not a single monster has attacked us. This is a little odd. Usually this many demigods in one place would be screaming, "Kill us!" to them. Maybe Kane has something to do with this.
I racked up my brain for any good reasons, but couldn't find any. Well, this is Elysium. This place is like heaven, but in the Underworld. I wouldn't expect any monsters….yet.
"Hey, guys we have business to do here." I tried not to growl, but it came out harsher than I thought.
"Don't worry we're already here, Mr. Daydream." Simon said.
"Oh." Well, that sounded lame. Elysium was pretty much a flower field, I guess. There was a tree here or there, but other than that it was just flowers and just one flower. Asphodel. Hopefully no one knows the fact that I actually know flower breeds.
"Let's go get that stupid mirror and leave Pansyville." Gary picked off a flower and gave it to Leaf, which she blushed at.
"Is he always this cheesy?" Adrian snorted.
"No, only usually and if not then he's just being dumb, but we love him anyway." Leaf replied.
"Figures." Adrian grunted.
"What?" Leaf questioned.
"Nothing, just that cheesy people date the even cheesier." Adrian said meanly.
"Why you little-!" Gary had to hold Leaf back before she could strangle the little twit.
"Little brother, please behave." Simon soothed.
"He's your little brother!" Dawn burst out laughing.
"No offence, but he's, like twice your size!" May started giggling. I couldn't help, but watch her laugh. It was kind of cute, even though her face was all choked up from laughter. No, bad Drew! She is NOT pretty! I mentally scolded myself.
"Simon, may I have a word with you?" He said it more in a commanding way, than a question.
"Sure, bro." Simon threw his hands onto his neck and walked into a farther away field. We watched them have a one sided argument. Adrian doing the obvious arguing. In about a minute they walked back, while we pretended we didn't see a thing.
"Okay, it's settled, so shall we go?" Simon said nonchalantly.
"Yes!" Dawn said piping up.
Lisa's POV
Lunch time. Yay, I get to buy 'Paul' waffles. Hopefully he's not like, well, a teenage guy. I swear their stomachs are all black holes! I spotted 'Paul' looking kind of lost.
"Paul, over here!" I yelled. A few people looked my way, but I ignored them.
"Whatever." 'Paul' said, but the excitement in his voice was obvious. Who knew a dark and depressing guy could actually raise a Pokémon who's quite cheerful.
"C'mon, I think I owe you some waffles." I grinned.
"Ya-, I mean whatever." 'Paul' dug his hands into his pockets.
"Not to be mean or anything, but when you're in your real form how do you eat?" I asked.
"I kind of just shove it through my mouth."
"You have a mouth?" I questioned.
"Yeah, it's in my stomach." 'Paul' replied.
"Well, don't do that here. You have to eat with your mouth that's on your head, okay?" We were standing in line for a waffle cart, which was actually in the school! Thankfully the line wasn't long.
"Okay, can I get chocolate waffles, blueberry, normal, and every other kind?" 'Paul' asked.
"Uhh, sure, I guess." I hope my wallet wasn't going to go starving!
"Yay, c'mon let's go! The line's already gone!" 'Paul' exclaimed excitedly. When he grabbed my arms my eyes widened and got pulled along.
"Hello, sir and miss. Welcome, to the Waffle Cart, where we have 1000 different kinds. What kind of waffle would you like?" The waffle guy pointed at the variety of waffles.
"All of them!" 'Paul' said.
"You sure? That's a lot to eat." The waffle guy said unsurely.
"Yes, I'm sure." 'Paul' said in a Paul kind of way.
"Okay, that's 1000 Poke dollars." Wow, maybe my wallet was going to survive! I spend more money on Poke balls! I handed him the money and he handed me the plate of waffles, which was extremely heavy.
"Here you go, Paul." I dropped it onto him and almost collapsed.
"Now, let's go find the others." I panted. I spotted a hyper 'Dawn', a nice 'Drew', a graceful 'May', a calm 'Leaf', a non-flirting Gary, a freaking out 'Marina', a serious 'Jimmy', an unconfident 'Misty', and a sophisticated looking 'Ash'.
"Man, this is weird." I breathed.
"I know right?" 'Paul' said.
"You're part of that weirdness." I sighed. Maybe I should've seen the Pokémon's personalities first, and then changed them. Well, too little too late. Paul and I walked to the table and sat down. I sat next to Leaf.
"Want to meet Gardevoir after we finish eating?" I questioned.
"I would be delighted to." She straightened her back and daintily ate her food.
"You know, Leaf, isn't that serious, right?" I asked.
"Yes, but being like her takes quite a bit of my strength." She replied calmly.
"Well, then too bad. You're not going to meet my Pokémon until you start acting like her." I smirked.
"Fine. Oh, I would love to!" She said in a Leaf-like way. I don't exactly know them that well, but it's kind of obvious they weren't acting like their owners. Maybe I could spread a rumor of them acting weird because of a bet and Leaf and Dawn already lost. That'll do. I realized I didn't have any food, so when 'Paul' wasn't eating a waffle I took a few and ate them quickly.
I rubbed my hands on my jeans for any leftover crumbs and then I got to 'Leaf'.
"Ready?" I asked.
"Yep, just let me dump my tray." She skipped over to the trash can and threw away her food.
"Okay, let's go." I said. We walked outside. There was a slight breeze every now and then, but it felt nice. I grabbed my Poke ball and released Gardevoir out.
"Gardevoir meet Gardevoir." I said.
"Ooh, she's so pretty!" 'Leaf's cooed.
"Gar!" My Gardevoir responded.
"No problem! Can you see me as I am?" She asked. Gardevoir nodded.
"Well, c'mon! I think we're going to get along just fine with me acting like a hyper brunette." 'Leaf' sashayed off with Gardevoir following her.
"Bye, Gardevoir! Plan C!" I yelled.
'Good luck, mistress.' A voice rang in my head. Gardevoir had sent a message telepathically to me, so I sent her thanks.
"Now, here comes the easy part." I muttered. I walked back inside. I saw that they were all still there.
"Hey, Drew." I said sitting next to him.
"Oh, hello. What do you need assistance with?" 'Drew' said politely.
"Well, do you know where the real you is going?" I whispered.
"Yes, I believe I am going to the Underworld." 'Drew' replied.
"Well, thanks. If you see my Gardevoir can you tell her operation G?" I requested.
"Sure thing. Have fun on your journey." 'Drew' said.
"I see you figured out what I'm going to do, so bye." I said.
Misty's POV
May and I haven't talked since we've had our 'fight'. I decided it was time to make up again. Good thing we were taking a break while Dawn was retrieving the mirror.
"May?" I said.
"Yeah, Misty?" She said giving me her full attention.
"I'm sorry." I sighed.
"For what? Oh, yeah, we had that fight, huh?"
"Are we good?" I asked knowing fully well it was a yes.
"Yep!" She gave me a quick hug, which I returned for the quick second. We let go and laughed.
"That fight was pretty stupid, huh?" I asked.
"Yeah, but the past's the past, right?" She gave me a wink.
"I guess so." I shrugged. It was good having my best friend back.
"Let's go! I'm hungry!" May's stomach growled in response.
I rolled my eyes. It really was good to have my best friend back.
Dawn's POV
"Where are you, mirror?" I asked. This place was pretty, but huge! There was the fact that there were dead people everywhere. They weren't zombies, but they were spirit things.
"Excuse me, miss? Would you please be kind enough to not step on my husband?" A spirit with kind eyes said.
"Oh, sure, sorry. Have you seen a mirror?" I showed her the picture of the mirror in Leaf's book.
"Oh, yes. It's over there. Grizelda says it gives her 'visions'." She pointed to my right and I saw an old lady and I mean old. She was holding something shiny in her hands if that was possible. This place didn't have many people in it, so getting there was a breeze. When I got a closer view I saw that she was bald in some spots and her old hands were rubbing the mirror.
She looked like one of those crazy cat ladies. I wonder what kind of crazy, heroic thing she did to get in here looking like that.
"Uhh, hi" I said nervously.
"Who are you? You're not dead! How'd you get in here?" I saw that she was missing one eye and she didn't bother to exactly cover it. I almost gagged, but thankfully I didn't.
"I, uhh, need that, umm, mirror." I couldn't help, but stare at her missing eye socket.
"No, you don't! This is my mirror! I earned it fair and square! I don't know if you've noticed, but I'm missing some of my scalp and I only have one eye, but it was all for this mirror!" She screeched.
"Oh, uhh, sorry?" I said uncertainly. Man, did she get attacked by a falcon and a tiger?
"Why would a foolish little girl like you need it?" She growled.
"Aphrodite needs it." I said softly.
"Oh, are you one of those flimsy demigods? Pathetic! Look at you! You're pathetic! I don't think you could take down a butterfly!" She spat. I winced. She was not only disgusting, but mean!
"Like you could talk!" I heard a voice from behind me. Paul!
"Oh, yeah! You're another one of those stupid demigods!" She snorted. I really hope she one day actually looks in a mirror and realizes she needs a paper bag to cover her face!
"Well, I might be stupid, but I do know you're really pathetic and good for nothing." Paul retorted.
"Well, this mirror is mine, you hear! I fought a griffin for this fair and square!" She yelled.
"Well, too bad, ugly." Paul snatched the mirror and ran. I didn't know what to do, so I just ran with him. I felt something snatch my leg. I looked at my leg and saw an octopus tentacle? I screamed.
"Help!" I wailed.
Well, this is the end of this update 'til next time. Review and don't eat bricks!
