The Thing With Hajimes
Me:Mwhahahaha!I'm on a roll here!
Kate: Fifth chapter already?
Karrie: And it's already to the point in which you have to rate it T
Keith: PG-13
Kellyn: Yeah I don't get that. Why are the rating representations different for than movie ratings?
Me: That I do not know
Kate: Why'd you have to make it T anyways?
Me: You have any idea how hard it is to write a romance story thats K+?
Keith: PG?
Me: Sort of, K+ is suitable for ages 9+
Karrie: And to think that it's rated T for only those few romantic moments
Kellyn: Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if SOMEONE wasn't so *Kellyn was beeped out* annoying!...hey, where did that beep come from?
Me: ^-^ I wrote 'Kellyn was beeped out'!
Karrie: That, that goes against all logic
Me: Behold! The power of the writer! *Keith and Kellyn now are dressed in a Hawaiian luau palm skirt and Hawaiian girl top*
Keith: Where the heck did the clothes I was just wearing go?
Kellyn: *blushing and is EXTREMELY embarrassed*
Karrie: O.O Where can me and Kate get these, 'special powers'?
Me: Sorry but you and everyone else are characters in an author's story book, the author only has these 'special powers' that pretty much only work on the people, a.k.a. Characters, that are in the story.
Karrie: =(
Kate: Karrie, we don't need any special powers to have influence over the boys. See *winks at Kellyn*
Kellyn: *turns bright red* W-wh-what?
Karrie: Oh, I see *evil smile*
Me: Kate, why did you have to teach her that?
Karrie: *keeps winking at Kellyn but he just stands there looking at like she's an idiot* it's not working
Me & Kate: *smacks own hand on forehead* idiot, he's your brother! It's not supposed to work on him when you do it!
Karrie: Oh, oh! Wait, the winking thing, isn't that considered flirtting?
Me: Mhm
Karrie: OMG! I WAS FLIRTTING WITH MY OWN BROTHER! *screams at the top of her lungs and goes to throw up...in the bathroom*
Kellyn: That's...scary...and disgusting...
Keith: at least Ash remembered to add 'in the bathroom'
Me: *sighs* sadly I have to give them stage directions too...
Disclaimer: pokelover0ash does not own pokemon
Keith: and she never will, thankfully
Me: Excuse me?
Kate: pokelover0ash does not support dating before age 16, kissing before age 16, and so on...
Me: I know, I just wrote a chapter or two about two 13 year olds kissing...cut me some slack will ya! Remember how things didn't exactly turn out all nice for those two 13 year olds after they kissed? Its because sometimes you got to reflect on life, even in fanfiction! First kisses don't always mean true love! Your first crush, love, or whatever you want to call it is not always going to be your last!
Kellyn: does that mean anti-almiashipping?
Me: Hell no! That's has to be my all time favorite shipping for Pokemon Rangers!
Karrie: Way to spoil it
Me: For all you know I might have Kate end up being with Keith instead of Kellyn
Hajimes: *in separate corners pouting with dark blue-ish purple-ish clouds looming over them*
Keith & Kate: What's up with those two?
Me: Later
Chapter 5: Almia Ranger School
Kate walked off the plane with all her luggage in tow. Her mind kept drifting off to Kellyn, though she constantly had to remind herself as she made her way to her new school that she was in Almia now and Kellyn, Kellyn was still in Fiorre.
In no time at all she had reached her new school and there was a man with a lot of Pikachus and someone else who took her luggage for her (how convenient!). She quickly found out that she had to take an exam and pass it before she could actually technically be in the school. When she found that all she had to do was to capture one of the man's Pikachu with a kind of styler, a School Styler was what she though she heard the man call it, she knew she couldn't fail, because Kellyn would be disappointed that she couldn't catch a measly pikachu, besides, she always wanted to use a styler and capture a pokemon. She was able to catch it in no time. In fact, it only took her 1-5 minutes.
"Hehehe." said the man. "My name's Kaplan."
"I'm Kate, nice to meet you Kaplan," replied Kate.
"You are now a member of our secret army," said Kaplan, "the inscrutable Team School!"
"What army? And what a lousy name for an army," replied Kate and her breath.
"As proof of your membership, you are just conferred the School Styler you just used." said Kaplan and Kate sweat dropped.
I was going to keep it any ways.
"Oh please, Mr. Kaplan!" exclaimed a female coming towards them with brown hair dressed in a green shirt and a pretty skirt. "Please don't tease my student with a silly thing."
"Ahahaha, the timing was just so perfect...Ahem..." replied Mr. Kaplan. "Congratulations! You have past the Ranger School's entrance exam with flying colors!"
"THAT was the exam?" exclaimed Kate and here she thought she should have studied more on the plane!
"Your capture was quite impressive." said Mr. Kaplan.
"Thank you," replied Kate.
"Congratulations, starting today you are an official student of the Ranger School. I'm Ms April. I'm your class's teacher." said the woman.
She seems nice.
"Your classmates are waiting for you." said Ms. April. "I'll show you to our class."
"Thank you Ms. April," replied Kate.
"Enjoy your school life!" said Mr. Kaplan as Kate followed Ms. April out the door and to the school building.
/~changing to Red Head Boy's P.O.V.~/
"Sorry to keep you waiting class." said Ms. April. "And good morning everyone!"
"Good morning!" replied a spiky red head boy along with the rest of the class.
"As I mentioned yesterday, we have a new member in our class." said Ms. April.
Aw man! And one of the only seats open is the one next to me! I had just gotten used to the guy sitting next to me! Thought the red head boy.
"Is it a guy or is it a girl?" asked the guy sitting next to him. He rolled his eyes, it was so foolish, talking about who the new kid would look like and what gender it would be.
"Is it the new student cute? Kind? Or cool?" asked a girl.
Whoever it is, won't be as cool as me. Thought the boy.
"Okay! That's enough!" said Ms. April. "Here's our newest classmate! Come on out!"
/~Kate's P.O.V.~/
Kate had waited for the teacher's cue to come in.
"Come on out!" she heard the teacher say and immediately she proceeded. She walked in with a bunch of students staring at her.
"Our new friend came along to our region to become a Pokemon Ranger!" said Ms. April. "Oh yes, you should introduce yourself to the class rather than me." Kate nodded. "Let's start with your name."
"My name is Kate Hitomi," she told the class.
"Okay, our friend here is named Kate so let's all make her feel welcome here." replied Ms. April. "I understand she scored quite well on the entrance exam."
"I doubt that." mumbled a red head boy and then he looked at her with a big dopy grin.
Some nerve! I shall show him!
"What is it Keith?" asked Ms. April. "What's with the big grin?"
"N-nothing Ms. April!" replied the red head boy.
"Well anyways, we better get you seated." said Ms. April. "You can have a seat next to Keith."
"The one with the spiky red hair?" asked Kate.
"Yes."replied Ms. April.
First he insults me, and now I have to sit next to him! I will enjoy out performing him! Thought Kate and then she took her seat next to Keith.
/~Keith's P.O.V.~/
Drat! Was all Keith could think of when Ms. April seated this Kate next to him.
"Okay that's it for treating you like a transfer student," said Ms. April. "From now on, you're all my students, people I can take pride in."
At least I know I have one thing in common with Kate, she has spiky pig tails and I have spiky hair.
"Let's do it everyone," said Ms. April. "Let's not fail your dreams of becoming Operators, Rangers, and Mechanics!"
"YEAH!" yelled Keith with everyone else but Kate who apparently didn't realize she was supposed to yell.
Guess she needs to learn to relax once in a while.
"Okay, I'll change the class schedule specially for today." said Ms. April. "This will be a free-style class." Then she walked up by Kate. "But before you go, Kate, I need to explain something to you."
"Okay." replied Kate sweetly.
"It's about the School Styler provided to you before the entrance exam." said Ms. April. "It's a simplified version of a Ranger's official styler. Now, put simply, a Styler is a device for befriending and capturing pokemon. By drawing loops a bond will form between you and the pokemon."
"Mhm" replied Kate as if she already knew what the teacher was saying. The teacher then finally finished her lecture and then Kate got up.
"Everyone, you should be paying attention to this as a review." said Ms. April and Keith had no choices but to turn and face his teacher, and his new classmate. Then she went through this whole big lecture and Keith just tuned her out.
Blah, blah, blah. Thought Keith as he began to yawn.
"Oh and Keith," said the teacher as she drew her attention on him. "Don't yawn with your mouth wide open like that." He blushed but then heard Kate giggle. This new kid was actually amused by how many the times the teacher had caught him already doing simple little tiny things! Then the teacher went on about how many pokemon your allowed to have with you at a time and about releasing and so on. "Rythmi, can I get you to show Kate around the school?"
"I sure will!" replied the blondie with a huge grin, she could sometimes really annoy him sometimes. But her annoyance didn't stop him from developing a slit crush on her.
"I'll be in the Staff room," said Ms. April. "I'll see you to it." As soon as the teacher left, he and the others gathered around Kate.
/~Kate's P.O.V.~/
As soon as the teacher left, Rythmi, Keith, and few others gathered around her.
"Hey new kid, I forgot your name, but how long did it take you to capture Pikachu, like an hour?" asked Keith.
"Hah, you wish!" snorted Kate who was slightly annoyed by this boy.
"Keith's just a show-off," explained Rythmi.
"So I've noticed,"replied Kate with her arms crossed and glaring at Keith. "Instead you should be paying attention. I'm not here to become a Ranger. I want to become an Operator. So when Keith becomes a Ranger, I can order him."
"Aw thanks Rythmi," replied Keith dryly. "I like pepperoni pizza with extra cheese, tacos, hamburgers, Baconators, cheeseburgers,..." He listed off a bunch of other foods.
"No, Keith, that's not what an Operator does and you know it!" replied Rythmi with her hands on her hips.
"I know," replied Keith. "You can still get me something though."
"I'll get you something alright, a knuckle sandwhich!" replied Rythmi.
"Does that come with mayonnaise or mustard?" asked Keith. Kate laughed, this kid was a riot.
"Argh! You're impossible sometimes, you know that?" exclaimed Rythmi in fustration. "Well Kate, let's just start our tour, okay?"
"Yeah, sure," replied Kate.
"Alright, starting with the classroom." said Rythmi. "You've already met our teacher, Ms. April. She's really nice, but if you make her mad..."
"It's very bad, right?" asked Kate and Rythmi nodded.
"There's a class next to us." said Rythmi. "The teacher there is very uptight and strict. 'No running in the hallways!' is, like, his pet saying."
"Okay," replied Kate.
"Okay, let's move on!" said Rythmi. "We'll explore the school building."
"Sounds good to me," replied Kate. Then the two of them left. They went to a different classroom were the teacher was male and had blonde hair styled in a funny way.
"Sorry to disturb your class but I'm taking my new classmate on a tour of the school," said Rythmi and then she turned to Kate. "This is the other class. The man looking this way is Mr. Kimball."
"Oh," replied Kate.
"He gets his hair to go that way with a ton of hair spray," said Rythmi.
"I didn't know guys used hair spray," replied Kate, she so had to use hair spray on Kellyn the next time she saw him. Kate giggled at the idea but then realized she was in a room full of people.
"He's a little too uptight, I think. " continued Rythmi as if she was ignoring Kate's giggle. "I'm not a fan." Then they left Mr. Kimball's room to Kate's relief. She was getting a few weird looks from the students there after she giggled. Then Rythmi took her to a room with lots of books.
"This is the library." said Rythmi. Kate was in awe, so many books!
Kellyn would love this!
"It's also known as Keith's nap room," said Rythmi.
"Is it because he falls asleep whenever he tries to read a book?" asked Kate and Rythmi finally let out a giggle.
"Maybe," replied Rythmi. "That boy in the back with a haircut like a mushroom is Isaac. Isn't he cute?"
"Not really," replied Kate.
"He's awesomely smart. You can usually find him right here!" said Rythmi.
"I'm guessing you know where to find him because you're either friends or have a crush on him." replied Kate. Rythmi blushed.
"Kate, please, don't think that!" replied Rythmi. "Well, sometimes he goes off, though." Kate dropped the subject and followed Rythmi to their next destination.
"Here is the staff room," said Rythmi. "But usually only our principal is here."
"Oh," replied Kate.
"Our principal is Mr. Lamont. His eyes are always twinkling happily behind his glasses. I like him pretty well." Kate just stared at her when she mention 'eyes always twinkling happily behind his glasses,' it was the principal, not some popular cute boy! They left the Staff room and went to their next destination. They climbed up stairs.
"Our dorms are on the second floor." said Rythmi. "This is where we all bunk down, coed style. Not in the same bedroom of course."
Thank goodness, you would have given both me and Kellyn a heart attack if I had to share a bedroom with a boy!
"The boys' bedrooms are on the left, the girls' bedroom are on the right." said Rythmi. "Janice, the lady there, is our caretaker. She's like a mom to all of us."
"Okay," replied Kate. They went back down stairs only to hear a bell ring.
"There goes the bell." said Rythmi. "We can go outside now."
"Cool," replied Kate and the two girls went outside. As soon as the got outside, Rythmi started to point out what certain buildings were. [author too lazy to write that dialogue out from the game, besides, not very important]
"Do you know about the Target Clear?" asked Rythmi.
–
Skipping that for all your sakes and mine, Rythmi decided to take Kate to the school yard.
"Oh dear, oh dear," said Janice from somewhere, Kate didn't exactly know where yet. "Help, someone! Anyone!"
"Let's go!" said Rythmi.
"Right!" replied Kate and the two girls ran over to see what was the problem.
"She's have trouble with the Bidoof!" exclaimed Rythmi. "Capture the Bidoof and get the to settle down!"
"Roger that Operator!" replied Kate making Rythmi giggle.
"Hey, I was wondering what the ruckus was about," said Keith . "Looks like I came at a great time, they're all up for grabs."
"Keith!" exclaimed Kate and Rythmi.
"Keith! Don't just stand there! You can help capture them!" yelled Rythmi.
"It won't be much fun if I just help." replied Keith. "Hey, new kid! I forgot your name, but I challenge you!"
"My name's Kate, and what is this a Pokemon battle?" replied Kate.
"We'll have a capture race! You and me!" said Keith. "We'll see who can capture the most Bidoof, alright?"
"Sure," replied Kate.
"Can't you make the effort to learn our classmate's name?" asked Rythmi. "Go ahead and have your silly race, or whatever. Just hurry up!" Kate could have sworn Keith looked a little hurt when Rythmi said 'your silly race' but then again, she could have just imagined it.
"Okay, let's get on with it!" replied Keith. "Two! One! Start!" Kate and Keith ran to capture as many Bidoof as possible.
-CAPTURE
-ON
-YEAH
"That's all the Bidoof," said Rythmi.
"I caught five," said Keith, "That means you caught...uh...four. That means victory is mine!"
"Don't let it get to your head hot shot." replied Kate.
"You and Keith looked good at it too!" said Janice.
"Thanks," replied Kate.
"Of course I have to thank our new friend and Rythmi too." said Janice. "Thank you for all of this...And leader of the Bidoof, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to tread on your tail. I'll make it up to you by tastier treats." All the Bidoof cheered. Then Janice and the Bidoof left.
"I'd rate your captures 65 out of a 100." said Keith.
"Fine, I'll rate your captures 50 out of a 100." replied Kate.
"Hey, that's not nice!" replied Keith.
"I was just kidding, geez." replied Kate.
"Hey, but you know," said Keith. "I'll be honest: I was pretty surprised by the captures you did."
"thanks." replied Kate.
"You might be decent for someone just started." said Keith. "You said your name was Kate, right?"
"Yeah," replied Kate.
"Oh, you, Keith! You knew our friend's name all a long!" replied Rythmi. "For goodness' sake..."
"Sorry," replied Keith. Kate sweat dropped. Rythmi may have been all over how cute and smart Issac was but she acted like someone she knew with someone she held very dearly. "Oh! That's right! There's someplace I haven't shown you yet!"
"What, you mean Ascension Square?" asked Keith.
"Yes!" replied Rythmi.
"Then I'll go." replied Keith.
"Oh, alright. I guess we'll let you come with us." replied Rythmi. "To get to Ascension Square, you have to go east out of the school yard, then you turn south to the stairs that go down to the square."
"Cool," replied Kate and then the trio went to Ascension Square.
"Next month they're going to be holding a special class here, called the Outdoor class." said Rythmi.
"Fun, but that name is not very original." replied Kate and Keith snickered.
"She's got a point there, Rythmi." replied Keith.
"KEITH!" shouted Rythmi. "Well, that monument there is called the Pledge Stone." The three went over to look more closely at it. "If you make a firm pledge to each other with your friends, it will surely come true...That's what Mr. Lamont told me."
"Ah, cool," replied Kate.
Maybe me and Kellyn should come here sometime in the future.
"That concludes Rythmi's Tour of Wonder and Excitement," said Rythmi.
"Nice name, did you make it up yourself?" asked Keith.
"Yes, thanks for noticing," replied Rythmi. "Kate! I'm glad that I met you! I hope we can be friends for a long time!"
"Me too," replied Kate.
"Hey, hold it now! Don' worry about Rythmi. Be friends with me," said Keith.
"How about I be friends with both of you?" asked Kate.
"Sure," replied Rythmi and Keith, then the bell rang.
"Oh, there goes the bell," said Rythmi. "We better get back to class. But, boy, oh boy Keith... Aren't you the slick one!" Kate was puzzled as Keith turned bright red. Then they went to class and then soon it was bed time.
Me: And there you have Kate's first day!
Hajimes: *still in their corners sulking with dark clouds surrounding them, anime style* …..
Keith:They're still like that?
Kate: What exactly did Rythmi mean when she said you were the slick one?
Keith: *turns bright red* N-n-nothing!
Me: Oh yeah, this is not rated T, i'ts rated K+...for now
Kate: Whatever.
