Welcome to Gaia! ::

"This place is so bad..." Sora says, walking into the common room. "We should clean it up!"

Cody looked around the forest. He was so lost. He got out his TADS and texted Ginji.

Heh... I kinda got lost... Help...

-Cody

Just then a wild Chikorita popped out. "Hey, check that out. A Chikorita. Let's go then, Plusle." Cody threw a pokeball in the air and Plusle popped out. He landed on the ground and immediatly took off with a Quick Attack. "Take that!" Cody shouted. But Chikorita came back quickly and sent out a vicious Razor Leaf. It must've been a critical hit, because Plusle was looking exhausted already. "Plusle, let's perfect your move this time. Take a minute to charge first." Plusle focused on the task and soon enough was full of energy. Chikorita came at Plusle with a Tackle attack, but Plusle jumped into the air. "THUNDERBOLT!" Cody shouted. Plusle was nervous, but let out all of his energy in one vicious attack. It nailed Chikorita, but didn't knock it out. It came back with Vine Whip. Plusle took the attack and managed to get back up. He was looking rough, but still had enough juice in him to take out Chikorita. "Once more, Quick Attack." The mouse pokemon got into a stance and took off. Chikorita tried to dodge, but Plusle clipped him and knocked him to the ground. "Still not out, huh?" Cody wondered. "Ok then, pokeball, go!" ?he threw a pokeball at Chikorita. The grass-type was soon consumed in a red light. It shook once. Twice. Three times. *Bing* Chikorita was caught.

Sora sits down on an old sofa which was full of dust and webs. "Ewww...." He says, standing back up. "I'mma start cleaning this place up." Sora heads over to the PC and switches pokemon back and forth. When he is completed he releases all his pokemon. "Alright guys. Help me fix this place up." All of his pokemon nod their head and start getting to work. Electivire and Blastoise begin to smash and break furniture. Charizard and Staravia fly off to get furniture and other things needed, like a TV, that Sora's mom had bought for the team. Pichu and Happiny start to dust and clean up around the place, making sure everything is spotless. Sora helps out by bringing in all kinds of supplies such as dishes and silverware. The place was coming together bit by bit as time passed.

*Ike had spent the rest of the evening re-vamping all the healing machines and security devices within the HQ. Everything seemed to be working just like it did those few short years ago. He could hardly believe he was calling this place home once more, but didn't have anything wrong with it.*
Ike: *Sighs as he walks around the new common room. He couldn't take his eyes off of the huge domed-window that stared out under the ocean. It was darker now with nightfall, and the old lights had turned on. Ike walked over to the curved couch which stretched along the wall underneath the tall windows and took a seat.* And the best part about this place... no one knows it's here! We're in the middle of nowhere.

While everyone was almost done remaking the room, Sora looks out the huge window and notices all the pokemon that lived underwater, pass by. "Cool..." Sora whispers before a little pokemon jumps on his shoulder. Sora turns his head slightly to find it was a Cherubi. "Cheruuuu-bi!" Cherubi exclaims with a huge smile on her face. "So you wanna help us out? You have been living here haven't you?" Sora asks with a giggle. "Cher cheruuu-bi!" Cherubi shouts and jumps onto Sora's head. "Okay. Sure. You can help us out. We are almost done though." Sora says looking around to find Ike and Ginji. "Hey guys."

Meanwhile, back on the Whirl Islands....

Mr. Ames opens his eyes slowly, groggily. Looking around, he sees that everyone's gone. As he gradually regains his senses, he carefully stands up. Turning in place, he surveys the land, and comes face to face with Dusclops. Again.

Dusclops uses Hypnosis.

"Oh no!" mumbles Ames, "Not agaiiihhhh~"
He yawns heavily and falls asleep on the rocks.

Dusclops goes and wanders around in boredom. "Dus...." stare

Cody searches for what seems like forever. He finally located a huge hole. "Was there an explosion here?" He thought about it for a minute and realized... "Maddy..." He looked at his TADS again. "Find a hatch... This must be what he is talking about." Cody entered the darkness cautiously with a pokeball in his hand. He didn't care what pokemon it was. He was hoping it would be something scary and strong, like Tyranitar, but he knew that was impossible. Every noise he heard made him jump or flinch. Then, a noise came from behind him. "Cyndiquail!" Cody jumped so high after that. He turned around and brought out his flashlight. Two Cyndiquail were just hanging out behind him. The light made them shudder. They were starving. He brought out some pokemon food he had stashed in his pack and let them eat from his hand. He started to scratch ine behind its ears. They hadn't had attention in forever, nor had they seen light. Cody whipped out a pokeball and opened it. Cyndaquail was absorbed by the light. It shook once. Twice. Three times. *Bing* Cyndaquail was caught. The other one wanted a fight though so Cody took out Totodile.

Cyndaquail attacked first with Ember. It was weak compared to Totodile's counterattack, Water Gun. It put out the Ember attack and drenched Cyndaquail. It attacked with Ember again, but Totodile was too fast he dodged and used Tackle. Cyndaquail, in turn, dodged and hit Totodile in the back with a strong Tackle attack. Both pokemon had a good deal of damage dealt to them. Cyndaquail attacked with Ember and hit Totodile this time. Totodile was badly injured, and had also obtained a burn. He had to end this fast, so he used Water Gun one last time to finish Cyndaquail off. Cody ran over and gave the pokemon a Sitrus berry he had found earlier. Once Cyndaquail was feeling better, he sent him on his way and continued on his journey. Cody pulled out his TADS and texted Ginji again.

Ok, I'm officially lost again... Help...

Ike: *Walks around the HQ and inspects random things. It really wasn't as beaten up as he thought it would be. He would have to teach everyone where all the secret entrances and exits are later, but that'll be easy. No matter how much he was enjoying this place, he could not get Archie and Cyrus off of his mind. He started to think of what Ginji said about not wanting Tsunami to find this place.* Hmm... i wouldn't worry about it. The only people who know about this place besides us are old Aquos members which... *rubs the back of his neck* I lost touch with and...*sighs* Team Magma. BUT-...they think no one's here seeing how Aquos left it to rust.
