Chapter 2; "I didn't sneak on. I just got on without you knowning, duh."
Recap: "And if you know, how do you get up from an all time l- SH- OW."
Sammy was enjoying her music with her headphones on, singing just fine 'till she bumped into someone.
A particularly unique someone.
But that was just when Sammy dropped her Trainer Card and Unova Academy entrance form,
Which is required to board the ship..
The glasses wearing brunette was situated on the ground now, groaning in pain. She was currently rubbing her sore behind, as her stuff and luggage was strewn around in the area.
"Crap.. sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going.."
A voice across from her sounded very apologetic.
Sammy blinked, looking up to see a girl about her age standing over her. Her hand was held out, a frown strung across her lips. "You alright?"
She could only muster a nod before taking the stranger's hand as she was pulled up.
"Yeah.. actually, it was my bad. Are you hurt?"
The girl who helped her up shook her head, brushing some of her dark brown layered hair behind her right ear. "No, I'm fine. I'm Maikee by the way, nice to meet you. Glad to know you're not hurt."
Her hand was held out again, but this time it was for a handshake. And she wasn't frowning. She was smiling.
"I'm Sammy. Thanks for helping me up!" Grinning, Sammy shook her head before bending down to pick up her messenger bag and belongings, putting them back in their places.
Maikee rubbed her arm, laughing nervously. "Oh, jeesh, sorry 'bout the mess. My little Furret scampered off, so I had to find her before we boared,"
As if on cue, the aforementioned Furret popped out from behind Sammy's suitcase. That caused her to jump from surprise.. and shriek loudly."Oh my Arceus!"
"….." Soft giggling could be heard from Maikee as she wiped a tear from her eye. "I-I'm sorry.. Furret loves sneaking up on people.."
"Gah,.. it's alright." She held her heart, taking a deep breath before picking up her suitcase. "I think it's about time we get onto the boat,"
"Yeah, you have a point there. C'mon Furret!"
Both of the girls got in the long line to board the enormous ship, to which was heading to Castelia City.
With the acceptance letter left behind on the floor.
Or was it?
It was.
'till another brunette girl with blue eyes picked it up.
"Huh. 'Sammy Riverdale', huh? Guess we should get this back to her so she can get in, eh, Quilava?"
The Fire-type nodded, hurrying off with it's trainer.
"I'm sorry miss, but you can't get on."
"What? But I have my letter!"
Seems like Sammy's arguing with the security guard in front of the boat. Grumpy trainers, along with confused ones mumbled behind her.
She ignored them, though, glaring at the guard. He just kept calm, staring her down.
"If you have your 'so-called' letter, then take it out. Along with identification."
"Fine,.." Muttering some.. colorful words under her breath, she dug into her messenger bag.
Maikee glanced at her before heading onto the boat, on a different entrance.
Ombra, on the other hand, growled lowly at the guard, but soon stopped when he noticed the guard's Growlithe growling back.
But both of the Pokemon's attention were turned to Sammy when she began freaking out.
"What? But I just had it! I could've sworn it was in here!-" '.. Oh, crap.'
Cue flashback from bumping into Maikee.
The guard seemed annoyed by now, uncrossing his arms. "Seems like you don't have a letter. No letter. No entrance. C'mon, young lady."
"Hey, wait!-"
The brunette was cut-off when the guard grabbed her by the hoodie collar, dragging her to the back of the line.
Oh, that didn't stop her from screaming loudly and making a scene, of course.
Out of the thousands of students in the line, one particular girl with blue eyes and blonde hair stared at her for a few seconds before speaking up. "HEY! Mr. Guard! Could you come here for a second? I have a problem."
The man in uniform glanced at her before stopping. He let go of Sammy for a moment, giving her direct orders. "You. Stay here." And then, he walked over.
Sammy twitched, glancing at the girl. But what she saw surprised her slightly.
The girl was grinning, mouthing something. 'Get on the boat, silly. I'll explain later.'
She gave no hesitation, running immediately.
"The air feels like, huh, Foxy?" Anyone could tell the male voice was grinning.
The teenager was leaning over a more secluded area on the UA boat, having got on earlier than most of the students.
Foxy, the Zorua glanced up at his trainer, nodding.
"Yeah, feels like last year all over again. Almost time to check-in to our room,"
"Rua."
Across from him, a raventte girl was seated on a beach chair, leaning back. In her hand was a thick bound novel. You couldn't see the title from afar, but you could tell right away it'd be a good book.
Curious black eyes blinked, glancing at the Pokemon situated on the ship's rail. "She looks like a first year, Foxy."
"Zorua."
"I think so too. Hey, you!"
Green eyes glanced up from the novel, curiously eyeing the boy.
"Yes?"
"You're a first year, right?" Not giving her time to answer, he plopped down next to her on the other chair, grinning. "I'm Chase. Chase Muffett, second year. I can show you around when we get to UA, if you want."
She closed her book after gingerly placing a bookmark to save her place. "I'd appreciate that, sure, thank-you.." Her voice was soft spoken as she cocked her head to look at him. "I'm Alexis Lemmings."
"Alright! I'm callin' you Lexie."
'Lexie' blinked again. "No one outside of my family calls me that.. but, sure.."
"Well, it's almost check-in time. I'll catch ya' later, Lex-Lex."
And like that, Chase was off, hands in pocket, Foxy situated on his head. He was whistling when he left.
All Alexis could see was the back of his head, his long brown hair before he disappeared down the stairs.
Alexis sweatdropped, shaking her head. ".. You can call me 'Lex-Lex' too.. sure.."
"Meeeeeeeeeeeeel! Mel! Wait up, Meeeeeeeeeeeeeel.."
Waving her arm, a dark blonde haired girl whined, trying to catch up to her blue-eyed, ravenette friend who was a few yards in front of her on the ship's deck.
Sighing, she turned around, hands on hips. "Evelyn, c'mon. We need to go check-in."
"I knowww.. I was distracted by some girl screaming outside!"
"I'm sure the screaming'll die down, now c'mon!"
"…" Evelyn paused for a bit, stopping, as her Snivy, who was named Naga, caught up to her.
Mel, (of which was short for Melissa), cocked an eyebrow. "What're you staring at, Evelyn?"
Shaking her head, she grinned sheepishly. "Sorry. Your purple streaks distracted me."
"Pshk, whatever. Let's go!" Grabbing her wrist, Mel began sprinting to the large, circular counter located in the middle of the ship's deck to get in line with the other UA students.
"God the line is long.."
Mel 'tch'ed, letting go of Evelyn's hand when they made it.
"No kidding." A voice behind them spoke. Evelyn's head snapped back to stare at a tall boy with scarlet eyes. He adjusted his glasses, looking irritated. "I just got here and everyone's been piling up like a school of Feebas."
"Sure seems like it." Mel nodded in agreement as Evelyn was quiet.
She was shy, when it came to new people.
The boy nodded, smiling a bit. "I'm Ty, nice to meet you guys."
Melissa returned the smile. "I'm Melissa, but you can call me Mel. This is Evelyn."
The blonde waved shyly, a shy smile on her lips.
"So, did you guys hear about a sneak-on on the ship?" Ty changed the subject, looking at the clock.
"A sneak-on?" Blinking, Melissa was curious.
"Oh! I think he means from the girl who was screaming earlier!" Evelyn suddenly broke into the conversation, smiling wider now.
Shy, be gone!
"Yeah, I heard it was a girl." Ty tapped his foot, frowning. He was getting really impatient.
"Troublemaker?"
"Nah, she happened to lose her letter, but someone helped her sneak-on."
Evelyn grinned. "Oooh, this story's getting juicy. You think she got caught?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Ty fixed his slicked back, dirty blonde hair a bit. "Nah. Then her efforts would've gone to waste."
"Oh, well, looks like we'll find out soon,. Hopefully. I love mysteries."
Melissa smirked a bit. This was going to be an interesting year.
"Huff. Huff. Huff. Oh my Arceus, we MADE it Ombra." Sammy whispered to her Mightyena quietly, trying to catch her breath behind a wall on the second floor.
Ombra nodded, his yellow eyes glancing around, on the look-out.
A finger tapping her shoulder made her jump and shriek, though.
The brunette covered her mouth, spinning around.
Flustered, sapphire eyes stared at her with concern. "Woah, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. You alright? You look like you just got chased down by an army of Galvantulas.."
"Ah, no. It's all cool. I just thought I was alone up here." She uncovered her mouth, sighing in relief. "I thought you were a security guard or somebody."
The teenage boy who had scared her took a step back, cocking an eyebrow. "What're you, a thief or something?" His tone could be described as teasing, as did his smirk.
She rolled her brunette eyes. "Uh, no. I'm a serial killer."
He winced. "Ouch. Looks like I'm screwed for running into you. Don't kill me!"
"I might smack you silly for scaring me, but I won't kill you.. yet. Just sleep with an eye open."
A chuckle came from the boy as he stuck his hand out, smiling. "I'm Kenneth. Nice to meet you, Ms. Murder."
"I'm Sammy Riverdale- wait, you look familiar .. have we met before?" Her brunette head cocked to the side, staring at Kenneth.
He shrugged, withdrawing his hand after she shook it. "Maybe. I dunno. You look familiar, too."
She shrugged back. "Eh. Nevermind, then. Why're you on the second floor?"
He pointed at himself. "Looking for the check-in counter."
"Ooh, me t-"
All of a sudden, a furious sounding voice boomed over the ship's PSA system.
"Attention, Unova Academy students, I repeat, attention Unova Academy, we have a stow away on the ship. I repeat, we have a stow away on the ship. If any of you spot a short-"
Sammy twitched, fists clenched.
"brunette girl who has a Mightyena accompanying her, please report to the ship's captain, crew or a guard immediately. Thank-you."
Kenneth glanced at her. "So you're not a killer, but you're a stow away."
She nodded. "Pretty much."
"You don't seem so bad, so, wanna tell me your story?"
"Lost my letter after bumping into my friend, Maikee. I don't know where it is now. This girl outside helped me get on by distracting the guard."
Nodding, Kenneth ran a hand through his messy black hair. "Alright, I'll help hide you then," He grinned. "at a price."
She gulped. ".. Deal."
As the PSA was made, a Charmeleon stared at the check-in counter. It was a green haired teenager's turn to check-in.
He looked down at his Pokemon with laid back blue eyes. "Sneak-on. Cool huh, Flare?"
"Char."
"Heh, I wanna catch this 'so-called' criminal. Up for a game?"
"Meleon."
Oh, let the games begin.
