Also, the reason I list all of the Yo-kai each kid has, it's in case someone jumps ahead and is confused about the Yo-kai they have. When I get to 20 for Nate, Lucas and Talia, I restart. Next chapter, I'm going to have Katie, Bear and Eddie become Yo-kai Watch wearers.


My Pov

I was out walking and saw Lucas in the park.

"Lucas!" I called. He looked toward me, shocked, and hid something behind his back. "Huh? What's that?" I looked and saw it was a giant hot dog. "Lucas, why are you eating something so greasy like that?"

"I don't know. I just passed by the convenient store and I suddenly felt so hungry. I've eaten so much from there and now I feel so sick." Lucas groaned, holding a hand on his stomach. While he was telling me this, he would take medium-sized bites from the hotdog.

"I don't know what could possibly be causing this." Alloo said, worriedly.

"Maybe you should call on a Yo-kai friend to help you. Maybe Grainpa." Sweety suggested.

"Worth a shot. Come on out my friend. Calling; Grainpa! Yo-kai Medal, do your thing!" Lucas exclaimed.

Summoning: Heartful

Speedy, artful! Sing lalala! Everywhere, Heartful!

Grainpa!

"Grainpa help! I don't know why, but I keep stuffing my face with food from the convenient store to the point where I feel sick." Lucas said.

"Do you know a Yo-kai who could cause this?" I asked.

"Why yes. It is the Yo-kai known as Hungramps. He more than likely is Inspiriting the store. You must deal with him, but first..." Grainpa said, turning to Lucas. Grainpa cloaked Lucas in a bright green light.

"I finally feel full and I don't feel sick anymore." Lucas said, relieved.

"Let's go." I said. We hurried to the convenience store and saw Nate was there.

"I guess you guys thought the same thing. A Yo-kai's here." Nate said.

"Not only that, we know who it is. It's Hungramps." Lucas said.

"Oh come now. Nate goes on about how Yo-kai are causing problems when really-" Whisper said, but Nate interrupted him.

"Found him!" Nate said.

"What?!" Whisper exclaimed. We noticed Hungramps, just sitting outside the store, sleeping. Anytime we woke him up, he'd fall back asleep.

"Try using Chatty." Sweety suggested. Chatty was the name I gave to Tattletell.

"Good idea. Come on out my friend. Calling Chatty! Yo-kai Medal, do your thing!" I called.

Summoning: Mysterious

A Boo-shigga! Boo-shigga! Boogie woogie! Cling clang delirious Mysterious!

Tattletell!

"Chatty, get Hungramps to tell us why he's Inspiriting the store!" I said. Chatty hopped on Hungramps face and he told us the reason he was Inspiriting the convenient store was because this was the place he always brought his granddaughter to. He and his granddaughter spent a lot of time together, but when she started school, she wasn't around him as much. After he passed away and became a Yo-kai, his memories of her faded and he couldn't remember what she looked like. So he was Inspiriting the store in hopes she'd come by.

"We understand your situation, but you can't go around making people sick to their stomachs!" Whisper scolded. Wow, Whisper didn't sugar-coat that at all. "And there's no guarantee that even if you're granddaughter comes here that you'll recognize her." Okay, that was a little harsh.

"You're right. Thank you for giving it to me straight." Hungramps said. Just as Hungramps walked down the street, 2 high school girls pasted him. 1 of them was his granddaughter! It turned out that she really wanted to spend more time with him, but became too busy with school. As she walked off, I could see Hungramps crying in joy.

"It's so great you got to see her again." Lucas said.

"You must be really happy." I said.

"Thank you." Hungramps said. He glowed briefly and his medal appeared in our hands. We started walking back to our homes.

"Talia, I'm wondering how you were Inspirited by Hungramps." Alloo said. I gulped.

"Maybe he didn't Inspirit me." I said. Alloo seemed to drop it. I hoped he'd never ask again.


Next Day


I got to school and everything seemed normal when I saw Lucas. He walked toward me and then walked right into me.

"Ow!" I fell back a little. "Lucas, how did you not see me? You were walking straight toward me." I said.

"Sorry. I don't know why, but like a doofus, I left my glasses at home." What? Lucas would never forget to bring his glasses. He could just barely see without them. "That's not all, Katie forgot her pencil case, Eddie forgot his books, Bear forgot his gym clothes and Nate forgot his backpack." Lucas said. Why had everyone forgotten something? That's when I heard Alloo.

"Lucas! Lucas, there you are!" Alloo called.

"Alloo? Where are you?" Lucas asked, feeling the air for his partner.

"I'm right here!" Alloo said. Lucas kept looking around since he couldn't see. "Talia, please give these to him." Alloo handed me Lucas's glasses.

"Lucas, here." I said. I moved his bangs out of the way and put his glasses on.

"Ah! That's better. Thanks Talia and thank you Alloo for going back and getting them." Lucas said.

"You both better get inside." Sweety said. There were times we would rearrange our sitting places. This time, I sat next to Nate, diagonal from Lucas and in front of Katie. Mr. Johnson was scolding everyone for forgetting things, but realized he was dressed in his pajamas. I leaned back a little and whispered to Nate and Lucas.

"You guys thinking the same thing?" I asked.

"Yep." Nate and Lucas replied. We pointed our watches toward Mr. Johnson and saw a strange, hat-like Yo-kai.

"That's Wazzat. He's a Yo-kai that makes everyone he Inspirits forget everything." Whisper explained.

"That explains why everyone's so scatterbrained today." Nate said. Whisper tried to charge at Wazzat, but it would just clamp onto his head. After class was over, we tried to figure out what to do. Katie walked past by us. "Hi Katie." Katie turned with an angry look on her face.

"Yes! I know, I look terrible!" Katie angrily exclaimed.

"Nate, what did you do?" I asked.

"Katie was being Inspirited by Hungramps and Nate told her how she looked." Whisper said. That was bad. Wazzat suddenly sprung past us and clamped onto Katie's head, making her forget Nate's comment. The next day, Nate hadn't studied for the test, so Wazzat made Mr. Johnson forget about the test.

"So, how do you like me now?" Wazzat asked.

"You are impressive Wazzat, but it's irresponsible for us to ask you to do things like that." Lucas said. Wazzat then told us how he use to be hat and was loved very much by a little girl. But when fashions changed, she forgot all about him.

"Yo-kai can be born from inanimate objects?" I asked.

"It's very rare, but it can happen." Sweety said.

"I'm pouring my heart out and none of you are listening!" Wazzat snapped.

"We heard you, Wazzat." I said.

"No you didn't, now you're going to pay!" Wazzat yelled. He lunged at us and we ran.

"What do we do?" Lucas asked.

"Summon one of your friends!" Alloo said.

"I'll see if Nono can help. Come on out my friend! Calling Nono! Yo-kai Medal, do your thing!" I called.

Summoning: Slippery

Slippery! Dippery! Slimey limey doo, Slippery!

Noko!

"Nono, try to stop Wazzat!" Nono was able to stay out of Wazzat's reach due to her jumping ability. She finally jumped and propelled herself back down, slamming into him. "Thank you Nono!" I picked up Wazzat and dusted him off. "Are you alright?"

"I'm sorry I lost my temper. Do with me what you will." Wazzat said.

"All we want is to be your friend Wazzat." Nate said.

"And the 3 of us promise to never forget you." Lucas said.

"Thank you so much!" Wazzat said, tearfully. He glowed and his medal appeared in our hands.

"Talia, I'm already friends with Nate, may I also be friends with Lucas?" Nono asked.

"Of course you can!" I said. Nono glowed and her medal appeared in his hands. The sun came out and shone very intensely. Wazzat then perched himself on my head.

"Just shading you from the sun." Wazzat said.

"That's very thoughtful of you." I said.

"I just realized something." Whisper said.

"Really? What's that?" Nate asked, slightly annoyed.

"Out of everyone in the whole class, Talia was the only one who hadn't forgotten anything." Whisper pointed out.

"Maybe Wazzat didn't Inspirit her." Nate suggested.

"Actually, I did try, but some kind of force pushed me away when I was about to take her memory." Wazzat said.

"There's 1 and only 1 way someone can resist being Inspirited by a Yo-kai and that is-" Whisper began. Don't say it please! The bell rang, signaling us to return to class. Thank you!

"Oh! Better get back to class!" I said. I picked up Sweety and Nono and ran back inside.


Lucas's Pov

"I wonder why Talia got so scared." I said.

"It's because she knew what I was about to say." Whisper said.

"Which was what?" Nate asked.

"The only way someone can resist being Inspirited is by closing their heart off from the world." Whisper said. What? Talia... closed her heart?

"The only reason or way for a person to do that is by experiencing great hardships or tragedies in their life." Alloo said.

"So, Talia's hurting deeply on the inside. But she hides it behind a mask of normality to protect herself from the hurt of the world." I said. I covered my mouth. Where did that come from?

"Should we ask her what happened?" Nate asked. I shook my head.

"It'd be better if she told us when she's ready." I said. Nate agreed with me and we head back to class.
