Yo guys, sorry im late, but again, I don't care. I'm also getting a bit sick. I've already sneezed, like, ten or so times today. Either someone is talking about me a LOT, or I am getting sick...
Anyway, quickly now, so review time.
Ironshadow37 - Yeah, thanks. Cockiness leads to death. Or something. Curiosity killed the cat?
James95 - They will, and yes. Chihiro is adorables.
RagingAnon - Great! Then I shall pair Elise up with... let's see... How about... That cloud? No, no, no! That flower! Much better fit XD Okay, but in all seriousness, I will pair her in the best way I know how: Flipping a coin! JK. Anyway, thanks for your support.
Okay, now that that is over, I am actually going to sleep. I can't write with this damn sniffing and sneezing... So, yeah. Sorry guys and girls, but when this chapter comes out, it will be tomorrow!
EDIT:
Sorry that I haven't posted this chapter on Thursday, and now its Saturday. My little sickness is pretty much done, so I can get back to this. So, let us commence!

September 8th, Tuesday - Hallway between Classes
Since I did not have Basic Knowledge as a class, I was heading back to my dorm, to get some sleep. Of course, I would wake up before Coordinator Class, so as not to be late. Sleeping already on my right shoulder, was Shock, my Shinx.
I will never understand how he can be so lazy, but so hyper all the time...
Reaching into my pants pockets, I pulled out my Mp3 Player and started to go through the downloaded music, ear buds already in my hands...
"Hey, did you hear about last night?" One student asked another.
"Yeah. About how somebody... died?" Was the reply.
"The reason why we have an even earlier curfew?" A third, female voice, chimed.
"Right. In fact, some guy, I think his name was Kuri? Kura? Something like that, warned me about staying up late at night outside, at around midnight!"
"Really?" The third voice said, now behind me as I passed the three students.
"Yeah. If he didn't warn me... Maybe I would be the one dead?" That was when I picked what to listen to, and placed the ear buds into my ears, the music turning on right after I did that. The guitar started out first, and then some drums. After about fifteen seconds, the singer joined in with some other instruments.
As I walked past the other students in the hall, who may or may not had class, I closed my eyes, replaying the conversation yesterday that forced me to go out at night near midnight.
September 7th, Monday - Flashback - Principal's Office
As I walked into the Principal's office, which used to belong to my Father and his Father and his Father, I took the moment to appreciate the good things in life. Which were none. Getting called into the Principal's office, could only mean one thing: Trouble.
I did not recall doing anything against the rules, and I should know. I was part of the family who created this school. Every rule was memorized, the layout of the school, memorized, class schedule, memorized. I even memorized the width and length of the school, the height of the buildings, pretty much everything. But that was a tale for another time.
The question now was: What did I do to get called into the Principal's office?
Staring in front of me, Shock sleeping on my right shoulder, was a nice, black chair, sitting behind a mahogany desk with piles of paperwork on it. On my left and right, were glass cases on top of other tables, with fossils and stones in them, belonging to the current Principal.
Walking forward, I came to a stop in the middle of the room. The Principal, Steven Stones, spun around in the leather chair, that would someday be mine. Maybe. If I decided to take the path of Principal, at least.
I nodded towards the man as a greeting and he did the same.
"Kurai Masters. Pleased to see you."
"Steven Stones. Cut to the chase before I wake up Shock and shock you. Pun intended."
Steven chuckled quietly and moved his hands to the desk, interlocking his fingers together.
"Right, right. Well, it is about the secret of this school that I have called you in here to my office..." I didn't respond. Steven took that to mean to continue. "Of course, I can't tell you everything, since I don't know everything. You'd probably learn everything sooner or later, perhaps if you become the Principal yourself, you would come to know everything about the secrets of this school..."
"Well, secrets aside, I already know everything about this school. Rules, length, width, height, depth, volume, materials, some other things... I even know what kind of grass is grown on the lawns."
"...I am... surprised? That is very odd... I do not even know how tall the top of this school stands! ...Don't answer that." He says, as he saw my mouth start to move up. I nodded. "Anyway. I will tell you about one secret, the most important, I should think, about this school. Which is really, the only one I know..." a sheepish look appeared on his face, and he scratched the back of his head. "Tell anyone you like, but only in parts. The parts is up to you."
"Obviously..." I muttered. Steven seemed to not hear as he continued.
"Okay. At around midnight, a shadowy figure appears on school grounds. I don't know everything about it, but it was the reason that the school closed so long ago."
"I see... So it caused the deaths at this school?" He nodded. "That would explain everything... mostly... anything else?"
"Hmm... On the reports that I have access to," Even the Principal doesn't have access to all the reports about the secrets of this school? Interesting. "-this shadowy figure mutilates its targets. Which is usually people and Pokemon who are up and about around midnight. It only attacks them outside, which is why we are currently adding new buildings to the school grounds..." That would explain why so many buildings for battling and contests were built in the five years this school was abandoned...
"In any case, this figure, according to the reports, doesn't always attack someone."
"What?" I asked, scrunching up my eyebrows, trying to comprehend his words.
"What I mean is... it doesn't always kill. As in, people have reported seeing this figure standing in the dark, unmoving. Or walking slowly towards them. There was only one case, with one student who managed to get away, that told us its "third phase"." He said, with fingered quotes.
"Third phase?" I mimicked.
"Right. Standing in the dark, walking slowly towards its prey, but never reaching them... unless, of course, you stand there like an idiot and go towards it..." That would stand to reason. But what idiot would let an unknown shadowy figure go towards you? Or, better yet, walk towards it? "And the third... It screeches madly, but no one else besides its prey can hear it, and rushed to them, at high speeds, as if it was one of the many fast Pokemon... say... Greninja."
"Mhm..." I hummed, putting a finger to my chin. "Standing still, slowly moving towards its target... and then running at them, as fast as a Pokemon. Could it actually be some deranged and evil Pokemon?"
"That's the thing." Steven said. "If it was a Pokemon, then this would be a lot easier. However... It is most definitely some type of human. Reason being, is that is appears to use a blade of some sort. Now, you might think it is Scyther, or Scizor. Maybe even a Honedge or Aegislash... But the slashes are too... human-like, to put in better words. And through witness reports, it has a humanoid figure. Not many Pokemon are humanoid... Okay, wipe that look off your face. I mean humanoid, as in, actually human sized. Not smaller or bigger. This thing clocks in at five feet five inches. Roughly."
"Whatever." I said, rolling my eyes. "Is that all? I kind of have a class to get to."
He sighed. "I was told that this shadowy figure hates your family. So, make sure you stay safe and don't be out at midnight."
That surprised me, but it stood to reason. It killed at this school. And who owned the school? Of course it would hate the owners, which must be why it killed the students here. In any case, I wasn't going to listen to Steven here about not staying inside when it gets to midnight. Instead... I'll go and warn everyone I find, using Shock's senses to locate people when it gets close to midnight, maybe save a few lives while I'm at it.
There was a curfew already in place, so, hopefully, no one will be outside at midnight to start with. If so... shaking my head, I banished the disturbing thought inside my head.
"Thank you for this information. Bye." I bowed my head to Steven, and left the room quickly. I heard a no problem and bye from Steven, before the door closed.
Later, same day
I sighed. Yesterday sucked. I stayed up for hours after that, and when I managed to get back to my dorm, fall asleep, and wake up, I had found out that somebody had died! It was only one person, versus the five that could've died. I had warned a total of four other people that night and only one, a girl by the name of Elise, was memorable.
Mostly because she kept tripping on roots during the way back to the girl's dorm.
Walking out the school, I glanced at Shock, who was still sleeping on my shoulder. Like my Father, and Forefathers, I started with a Shinx. The Masters always used a Shinx, or, from my Great-Grandfather we did. Even my sister, who decided to focus more on Pokemon Contests, had a Luxio. In fact, she was going to go to this school, if it didn't close down. But since it did... well, she already finished Highschool at a different school, and was currently attending an advanced college or university of sorts for Pokemon Contests.
As I stepped out of the front doors of the school, I gazed up at the slightly cloudy sky. I have to get stronger. When I fought that Jirachi... If she was smarter and not cocky, I probably would've lost. Sure she has a strong Pokemon, but her actual skill as a trainer is not up to par. How she had got that Jirachi is a mystery to me, but if she were to get better...
She would definitely have a spot in the top ten.
That leads me to another question... Where would I be ranked?

September 8th, Tuesday - Basic Knowledge Class
I walked into my second class for that day, Basic Knowledge. Why was this a class, I'll never know. As the name implies, we will probably go over what should already be basic knowledge.
Though it was September, it was still warm. Probably because this school is located in Hoenn, the Region of surfing...
I had blonde hair, with green hazel eyes. I had slightly tanned skin. I had on an assorted color Pokeball shirt, with black shorts and running shoes. My hair was brushed up so my head, so my forehead wasn't covered, and it was brushed back on the sides and over my ears.
Floating by my shoulder, was Tungsten, my Beldum.
Looking around the class with quick, observant eyes, I saw an assortment of Pokemon that you could find anywhere,- and is that a Mew? Looking even more to my right, I saw some other Pokemon, some more interesting, but still some were- and is that a Diancie?
My mouth opened slightly, and the only thought that went through my head, was: 'Where did they get Legendary Pokemon? Not fair!' I then sighed, and looked at Tungsten. Legendary Pokemon or not, Tungsten is the only Pokemon I would want to start with.
Taking my seat, which just so happened to be right next to the window and in the back, like I was the main character to an anime, I waited for the class to start.
A few minutes later, the bell rang and the two teachers walked in...
"Hello students, my name is Alder. Once upon a time, I was the champion of the Unova region. And this lovely young girl right next to me is my assistant teacher..."
"Greetings. I am Erika, once a gym leader of Celadon City in Kanto."
"In this class we will be teaching you the basics of the basics. What is burn status, paralyze, potions, and what the heck, is a Pokeball and what you do with them. Now, any questions other than, 'But Alder, we already know all this?'" He said as he cleaned his ear with his pinky finger. "None? Then, Erika, if you would call the role..."
"Right." Erika then began to call roll, as Alder sat down in his chair, and went to sleep. When Erika finished, she sighed when she noticed that Alder was asleep, and so she started class by herself.
That day, we learned about status afflictions.
When the bell rang, I quickly exited the room, Tungsten floating at my side. To be honest, that class was boring. I mean, I already knew all of that! I learned it all in Middle School, and Elementary School... Even Preschool taught us that!
Then again... they said that if you forget the basics, you'll never win... Or something. Well, it is now lunch time, so... Time to eat!
Now if only I could figure out what Tungsten ate... Though he had no mouth, he was still alive, so he must eat something!
Maybe sunlight? Metal? Electricity? Did he have to get charged? Well, who knows! Life is such a big mystery!
Laughing inside my head, I made my way down to the cafeteria.
Hello guys! Sorry if this chapter was boring, didn't make sense, or was just plain stupid! I tried to come up with something to do in this chapter, but no dice!
Anyway, this is why writing these types of stories is always difficult; it is not based on a game, or anime, and it doesn't have a concrete plot you can use to guide yourself through the story... so you have to make up your own!
And that is why, if you would help me out, maybe tell me what you want to see happen, I can add it in, and make this story more interesting...
I saw this because of school and that I just got over being sick. I was out of school on Thursday and Friday, so I have a lot of work to get down... So I'll have less time to do this. So, any help from you, the reader, would be great!
I also started to read the comic, "The Gamer" by Sangyoung Seong... Made in Korea! A nice story, where you take a guy, and turn his life into a game! Pretty nice XD Now I want to write something like that... Bah, too much work! I have too much to do! Maybe in the Summer...
Anyway, bye guys and girls, have a nice Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and all that! Now... I'm just going to go bash my head into a wall to come up with what will be happening the next chapter! Hahahahahaha... help me... D,=
