Task Two: Interact with Dawn's pokemon

I'm setting these individual tasks for myself. This is just in-case, Dawn doesn't come back, and I'll have to permanently take her place. I don't think anybody would miss me that much in the Hidden Leaf Village. I doubt they would want to know me now. Talking to her mother was so interesting, I would never have expected that Dawn would be clumsy. She always seemed so bright and intelligent. Maybe she was clumsy once. I've been travelling with Ash and Brock for over a week, they've not noticed this change. Not even Dawn's childhood friends, Leona and Kenny could notice the change.

There's these really strange people called Jessie and James who keep trying to steal other people's pokemon. They had a cat with them as well. They were extremely offended when I asked who they were. Jessie almost had a panic attack whilst James tried to laugh it off. Brock and Ash thought that I was joking, trying to get them off our case. I told them straight that they should be ashamed of themselves and told them to get a life. It's not something I would normally say if I was being me, Hinata. It was just something I could imagine Dawn saying. She had the courage to stand up for herself, not like me. They were part of a criminal organisation called Team Rocket I hear.

I feel sorry for them really, they don't seem to be bad guys at all. They just seem to be trying to make a living out of themselves, but they had no where else to turn to. The Team Rocket Trio always seem to be unhappy. Perhaps at some point we should invite them for a get together like we did last week.

I was greeted in the morning by Piplup who had given me breakfast in bed, served by Brock. I keep on thinking to myself, Dawn's so lucky. Not only does she have friends who support her, but also gets breakfast in bed. I had rice porridge, and it was delicious: one of the best meals I had ever had. I don't think Team Rocket ever did have this luxury treatment.

After Breakfast we made our way to Snowpoint City. We were going to meet up with the Gym leader, Candice and stay over at hers for the night. We were also going to choose what we wanted to wear for the ball in Celadon City. We were all invited to a ball in Celadon City. Dawn was invited. I'm not looking forward to this, but I've been pretending to be excited because it sounds like something Dawn would enjoy.

Candice welcomed us with open arms. She spoke good words about this ball in Celadon city and how only the best of the best were invited. I take it that Team Rocket were not invited to this party. Candice also mentioned that popular bands such as Bad Luck and The Water Flower Sisters and would be performing. I've never heard of The Water Flower Sisters, but I love Bad Luck. Bad Luck were my favourite band, even though it's not the regular music that we used to hear at The Hidden Leaf Village.

"Great taste," Candice said. Candice was shocked when I said that I loved Bad Luck. I've never seen Dawn mention the band in her diaries. Oh well, she seemed to be the type of person who loved that sort of energetic music anyway. "I had no idea you were into them. Since when did you become a fan?"

"I heard one of their songs on the radio once," I lied. "I loved it."

"So who's your partner for the ball?" Candice asked.

Oh no, Dawn never mentioned this in her diary. I don't think Ash or Brock were going to help me out either. "I haven't thought about it?" I replied, honestly.

"Didn't you say that you were hoping to go with Zoey?" Ash asked.

Zoey?

Oh Dawn's rival Zoey? The winner of the Sinnoh Grand Festival and Top Coordinator? From what I've read in the diary, Dawn seems to be very close to her as if they were best friends. Dawn always seemed to be excited whenever she saw her.

"Oh yes," I said. "I forgot about it."

"You're going with a girl?" Candice asked. "That's quite a risky move... I like it."

"How could you simply forget?" said a voice behind me. I turned around and saw a tall girl with short red hair marching towards me. This must have been the Zoey Dawn was going to dance with. Well, I'm going to be dancing with her now. I blushed and shook it off with giggles.

"Hello Zoey."

"I don't like what you're wearing," Zoey admitted. She looked down on Flak Jacket. "It looks horrible on you."

"I like it," Ash said in my defence. "I think it's pretty cool."

"When we go to this ball, I'm going to make sure you dress smart," Zoey told me. "We're going to practise our routine soon. You want to win that prize don't you?"

"What prize?" I asked curiously.

"The cheque for $500,000," Zoey said. "As well as a trip to Unova."

"Oh my," I gasped. "That sounds like an amazing prize."

I still need to work on my task two. Even though I'm interacting with Dawn's pokemon, I still feel like I need to maintain the bond between us on her behalf. If the pokemon begin to notice that something is wrong, then the trainers will eventually end up noticing too. I'm confident I will pass the second task though, but for now I need to focus on the other tasks.

Task Two: Interact With Dawn's Pokemon - Work in progress! I think I'm nearly there.

Task Three: Communicate with Dawn's friends without hassle - Pass!

Task Four: Win the prize at the Celadon Ball - This one will be tough, but I'm going to go for it. Dawn and Zoey seem to be very competitive.
