Everybody had a Great Thanksgiving right?

Even the people who don't celebrate it?

Good…

National Suicide Hotline:1-800-488-3000

Life's like a Rubix Cube… eh, you figure it out.

"(What are you doing, Sis?)"

"(Spying…)," I shushed. My lightly colored brother slipped down and crawled next to me.

"(Spying on what?)"

"(See that creature over there?)"

"(Oh, its a… What is it?)"

"(I don't know, I've never seen a Pokémon like them before.)"

"(What is he doing?)"

William was obviously making a fence, but for some reason, my mind was in a fog. At the moment, it looked like he was trying to smash dead trees into the ground. I had theories that he was training to get stronger for a battle, or even trying to break the earth in half. I was finding Humans fascinating, even though I didn't know what they were called.

"(I'm not sure, but I want to find out.)," I stood to get a closer look, but brother pulled me back down.

"(Don't go out there. He might try to kill you.)"

"(But that one's really nice.)"

"(But you don't know anything about him.)"

"(Yes, I do.)," I argued, "(His name is William Caleb Lawrence. He is ten years old and lives alone with his grandfather, Pappie. His favorite food is something called Jam, but they don't have it very often. He spends his entire day feeding those Torchic over there or pulling milk out of those Miltank or splitting small trees down. Oh, and he has exactly three cavities and a round birthmark on his…*whispers*)"

"(My Mew! How long have you been spying on him?)"

"(A few days… after that game of tag…)," I said as I watched brother's mouth open so wide that a Caterpie could mistaken it for a wet cave. Mind you, I've been coming here almost every day and some nights for the past moon or two.

"(All this time, you where here?)," his mouth shut when I nodded, "(No, I forbid it.)"

"(You can't do that to me.)," I wined.

"(Sis, I don't know how you haven't been caught yet, but what are you going to tell the rest of the pack when they find out?)"

"(They wont find out, so long as you don't tell them.)"

"(Then…)," he thought for a second before running off, "(I'm telling Mom.)"

"(No you can't!)," I leaped up after him,

But then hit my head ~~~~~~~ and woke up.

"Sir, you can't go in there," a woman's voice said as I awoke me from my dream.

"Please, step aside," a man argued.

"I can't do that," the Nurse said, "the Pokémon in here need their rest."

"But I need to know if Tyler would approve," the man said, trying to get past her.

"I already told you," Brandy took a stand next to Nurse Joy, "the answer is no."

"Look, you said that he's not captured yet," the man explained, "since he's not captured, then he's free to make his own choices."

"I realize that Mr. Diako, but I'm his parent," Brandy defended himself, "and as such, I'm responsible for his well being."

"But how can you refuse an offer like this?"

"I'm thrilled about the offer but… I, We just need time to think about it, alright," Brandy turned the man back to the door, "and right now Tyler needs to rest, so I'll talk to him about it later, okay?"

"When should I expect an answer?"

"I don't know... a week maybe."

"You have until tomorrow," I heard Principal Bisha say as the door was shut again.

"(What was that about?)," Leo coughed, his voice seemed deeper, "(Damn, I'm sore.)"

"(You okay, Growlithe?)," the Ponyta ask him.

Leo didn't even bother to turn around to look at him, "(that stupid Skunktank Poisoned me. I can't believe it.)"

"(Find yourself lucky. I was almost barbecued cajun-style.)," I said.

"(So what. I was almost filleted, by a Plant-type no less.)"

"(I wonder where Aneki is...)," Leo groaned.

"(What's a Neki?)"

"(Hm?)," Leo looked at me. He appeared confused, "(Tyler, What is it?)"

"(I asked, what's a Neki?)"

"(I don't understand…)"

"(It's not that complicated of a question, Leo.)," I almost growled myself.

"(What is it?)"

"(Aneki.)," the Ponyta moaned, "(He means Aneki. He wants to know what an Aneki is.)"

"(Are you two asking me something?)"

"(No, Sherlock. We were giving the weekly forecast.)," the Ponyta snapped, "(Now stop being a pain in the butt and answer the damn Torchic's question.)"

"(Andrew, watch your tongue!)," Kiki snapped as she snuck her way back into the room, "(That's my baby brother you're talking about.)"

"(Like I give a Murkrow's Curse about what I say. He was the one talking about birthmarks on someone's…)"

"(HEY!)," Luckily, I interrupted in time, "(where have I ever said anything remotely like that!)"

"( You kept me up all night, just going on and on about Terry and then you talk in your sleep, going on and on about some William guy and You-)"

"(Quit your whining.)," Kiki said proudly, "(I was kidnapped by a Noctowl, fought two of those pycho Plant Pokémon, and have a foreign object stuck in my… um, tails! I'm going to need surgery.)"

"(Were you attacked by a Leafstorm!)," Andrew yelled at Kiki, "(No? I didn't think so. And now look at me! While you're walking around, I can't walk two steps without falling over.)"

"(What's your point! Degree of wounds don't matter. I faced two of them and you only faced one.)"

"(Doesn't matter! Excuse me! At least with your Flashfire ability you can recover faster.)," Andrew yelled, "(I don't have that convenience! And then look at me! Unlike with Vulpix, My legs are My Life! I can't live without them. If you broke your legs, then Mommy Dearest would cradle you like a baby!)"

"(I also lasted more than one attack.)," Kiki sneered at him. Andrew wanted to use Stomp on her, but quickly reversed on making that mistake.

"(Okay, you win!)," I was directing it to Andrew, but Kiki accepted it, so then I masterfully changed the subject, "(Hey, Kiki did you happen to hear what they were arguing about out there?)"

"(Something about school and a home for you.)"

"(Man…)," Leo seemed to be ignoring what everyone was talking about despite the fact he was sitting right there and watching us, "(if Aneki doesn't come back soon I'm going to go nuts.)"

"(Hey, Grandpa! I was talking here!)"

"(Um… uh, errr…)," Leo couldn't form a sentence.

"(What? Are you out of insults, Farmer's Mutt!)," Kiki sparked a small flame into his face.

"(Gah!)," Leo jumped onto his hind legs and fell onto his rear, "(Watch where you shoot those things!)"

"(How can you bend like that without falling over?)," Kiki shrieked. I looked up and noticed that Leo had one of his front paws behind his back, helping him keep up. That was diffidently not natural for Growlithe to be able to do.

"(I'm out of here.)," Leo flipped over and headed for the door as it opened.

"Hey, Leo," another boy entered the room, "I know that your master's gone missing. So as his master, it's my job to make sure that all of my servant's subordinates are well taken care of after my servant disappeared."

Leo just started growling at him, "Leo? What's wrong boy?"

"(We are not your servants, Eddie!)," Leo barked, "(Now if you don't mind I'm going to get out of this place before that fat fox tries to roast me again.)"

"Oh, so that's where you went," Eddie's smile slowly faded, "This is unfortunate."

"(Fat fox!)," Kiki shrieked, "(That's the last straw! I Am not fat!)"

"(For a Spheal maybe…)," I thought out loud.

"(Oooh, bad move there Chicky.)," Andrew sighed.

"(What do you mean?)"

"(You just insulted a female of your natural predator about her weight. It doesn't take a genius to know what's going to happen in five, four, three…)"

"(I am not fat!)," Kiki leaped at me. I screamed and started to run for my life. For real this time. Kiki was not holding back. First she flashed a weird dark aura around the room. Japanese figures and "X"'s floated around the room. This had to be Kiki's Imprison in effect. Then she started shooting her Will-O-Wisp fireballs at me. I couldn't run as fast as I could before.

"Hey, what's going on in here," Brandy shouted at us.

"Kiki, stop that right now," Karen yelled at her, "Or no brushings!"

Kiki stopped running and slid in her tracks.

"(You wouldn't do that would you, Mommy?)," she got all wide eyed and cute.

"(Oh, so now she's mommy, huh?)"

"(Don't press your luck, Tyler…)," she said as sweetly as cream, but as horrifying as one of mom's 'the look' moments.

"Yes, I would," Karen scolded Kiki, "You shouldn't treat your little brother like that, especially when you've got an injury."

"And you used Imprison! You know how much I hate seeing Imprison."

"So this is what an Imprison looks like," Brandy touched one of the X's, causing it to spin momentarily, "Cool."

"It may be cool for you, but it creeps me out," Karen shuttered.

"It should vanish when you put Kiki away."

"I can't put Kiki away. Nurse Joy said that the thing in her tail could move to a more dangerous location if I return her to her Pokéball."

"I see…," Brandy looked around the room some more, "Hey wait, where's Leo?"

"I saw Eddie take him that way," Christen randomly pointed, "Of course, Leo was making a huge fuss, since Eddie wasn't his master. So I think that he might of taken him against his will to the old bell tower across town."

"………," we all blinked, but Kayla was the first to speak, "I don't think I've ever heard you say so much on your own before."

"Where did you two come from," Brandy asked.

" Eddie… Leo…Not master…," Karen was putting two and three together about what they said.

"Now I remember Eddie! I was going to kill him! Why didn't you two stop him," Karen yelled at them, "Andrew, we have to go NOW."

"(Oh… Damn, am I tired and these drugs aren't working fast enou-zzzzzZZZZzzzz.)," Andrew fell asleep, as Karen returned him to his Pokéball.

"Wait! Andrew's still recovering," Brandy told Karen, but she didn't listen. She ran off after Eddie, followed by Kiki, "Karen wait!"

"(Hey, don't leave me here alone with…)," I screamed running after Brandy, but Kayla caught me, "(Nooooooooooo!)"

"Come on, Milkshake let's play," Christen smiled with her doppelganger.

No offense, but I was afraid of this happening four chapters ago.

"We've got a few Ribbons for you to try on…"

Dare I repeat myself?

Yes?

"(Nnnnnooooooooooooooooooohhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CURSE YOU MEW!!!!!!!)"

Hey, I'm not sure if I should say this but…

Has anybody seen the new four way Co-op Pokéfic stories called "Synergetic Sins"?

Call me crazy, but I have the strangest feeling that I somehow inspired the titles…

Silly, right?

I just found them and I was like "whoa, that looks familiar…"

"That too…"

You've got to be kidding…"

"Snap, now they'll think I plagiarized!"

"At least there isn't some unknown secret fifth one right?…"

What I'm trying to say is that it's all just some kind of Cosmic Coincidence.

Anyways!

Sorry that this story is kind of slow again.

I'm working on it, I swear!

See y'all next time!
