Florian was getting ready for another day of training and studying in the Terarium. It was an innovating and raw experience that Naranja Academy didn't offer. Plus with Koraidon's new ability to fly as far as they could they could now explore the grand area with unlimited possibility.
He put on the brand new Blueberry tracksuit he had been provided with and grabbed Koraidon's Poke Ball from the shelf and went to walk towards the door.
Outside Florian's dorm room around the corner, Crispin and Carmine's heads popped out.
"So what exactly is your plan to stop Lacey from asking him out?" Carmine asked Crispin. Ever since Crispin came up with this little alliance idea yesterday, he had let loose nothing about what his plan was to keep Lacey and Florian separated from each other.
"Don't worry leave it all to me" Crispin said with a smile as he turned the corner and walked straight towards Florian's dorm just as the young trainer stepped outside.
"Hey good morning Florian" Crispin said, upbeat as ever.
"Oh good morning Crispin. What brings you here?"
Carmine watched from afar as Crispin said "well you've been up and add it like a pro so I thought I would give you something tasty first in the morning to keep that spirit up. I've got this special sandwich" and on cue Crispin pulled out his trusty frying pan with on it a sizzling sandwich.
"Oh that's very nice of you Crispin, thank you" Florian said and without hesitation grabbed the sandwich of the plan and took a big bite out of it. Carmine looked on with surprise, she had never seen Florian as such a big eater and the way he gulfed down that sandwich was almost cute.
Soon Florian had finished the meal and let out a relieved sigh "thanks Crispin it was delicious. What was in it?" but before Crispin could answer, Florian's stomach began to rumble and he hunched over slightly.
"You okay Florian?" Crispin asked concerned. Florian scrambled for the doorknob on his room "yeah I just…I need to go sorry" he said hurriedly before returning back inside his dorm room and slamming the door shut.
Crispin smiled before returning back to Carmine who had a mix of worry and slight annoyance on her face.
"What the…what did you to him, what did you put in that sandwich?" she asked him in an angry huff while crossing her arms.
"Oh that," Crispin said with a confident grin as he crossed his arms "just a little extra spice then normal, as well as just a pinch of laxatives. Not a lot but it will keep him on the porcelain throne for a bit. If Lacey can't find him, then she can't ask him out! Great idea right?"
He was waiting hopefully for a response on Carmine's end. Something among the lines of "what a great idea Crispin! You are so smart!"
Instead however the response he got was Carmine snatching the frying pan from his hand and hitting him upside the head with it.
WHAM!
"OUCH!" Crispin cried out as a surge pain went through his head and he fell on his knees, clutching his head. Instinctively he shouted "what did you do that for!"
"YOU GAVE MY FLORIAN LAXATIVES!" Carmine shouted, her face now crimson with anger.
It was at this point that Crispin knew, he had dun goofed.
"Uhm…well we needed to do something to…you know" he tried explaining but instead Carmine cut him off with a sharp and angry expression.
"I will give you a five second head start before I start mashing your already fried brain to mush" Carmine threatened as she angrily twirled the frying pan in her hands "10…"
Immediately in spite of the pain in his head, Crispin took of running like a madman down the hall as he heard "1…" and he heard the all to loud footsteps of Carmine chasing him with his frying pan in her hand, ready and armed.
