"I was hoping you'd do that," Sabrina said with a tiny grin. She flung out a Pokeball, revealing Mimien. The Pokemon did a little pantomime, awaiting a command. "Mimien!" Sabrina said, "Don't even let that Electabuzz attack! Encase it inside of a Barrier-box, now!"
The Pokemon nodded, and did a strange gesture with its hands, creating six Barrier walls. Two went on either side of the Electabuzz, one went in front of it, one went in back, and one went on the top while the last went under the Pokemon's feet. A moment later, they all came together to create a three-dimensional prison. The mime looked quite happy with itself.
"Normally I would give it a chance to fight back," Sabrina said, glaring to Rena, "but I'm not in a kind mood." She extended her arm out toward the Rocket, and her palm glowed. Rena's body glowed the same color a moment later, and Sabrina lifted her up into the air, binding Rena's body in a completely upright position.

Girls, take their sweet time to eat don't they? Mike thought to himself, placing some money on the table. ((;D)) "Now let's high tail it out of here before that outrageous girl comes back." He said with a slight tone of urgency, speed walking out of the every so quaint diner. He turned around, the perky waitress hopping up and down towards the duo's former booth.

"Gladly," Flannery replied, jumping up and following Mike as the strange girl went back to their table. She looked around, feeling quite satisfied. "So, what now?" she asked, leaning back, her hands behind her head as she stretched. "I'm thinking you'll want to go and give Norman a piece of your mind, am I right?" she winked at the boy.

Weezing shook its body before ramming into the tube once more. It shattered upon impact. Blue liquid splashed out all over the trainer, getting him even more soaked then he was before. He held up his Scyther's ParkBall and recalled his Pokemon. "Come on, let's go!" he barked, running out of the lab.
Rena gasped, recalling her Electabuzz. "Kilik! Wait!" she ran after her ex-partner, tossing her hat to the ground.

Kasiya stopped, unable to think of a reply, but slowly raised her hands and ginned impishly at Mai. "I don't have him," she said simply.
"Oh really?" Mai sneered, the device still clutched in her outstretched hand. "I guess you don't want this precious little thing back, now do you?"
"Oh, I do," Kasiya smirked, using Hiro to steady herself as she stood up. She caught a slight glimpse of Fang as he soared through the sky, his eyes fixed on Mai and her PokeNav. The girl smiled, and gave a very slight nod, and the large bat Pokemon swooped down, grabbing the PokeNav from Mai's hand and knocking her to the ground. The Crobat dropped it into his trainer's awaiting hands, who could only grin at the stunned Mai. "Seriously. You underestimate me sometimes."
"I'll admit, that was good," The Rocket growled, getting to her feet and brushing the dirt off. "But don't overestimate your abilities, either."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Kasiya growled right back, her hands clenched into tight fists.

Sabrina had taken off after Kilik, and Nina ran after him as well. As she was running, she passed Rena, catching up to her sister and her friend. "You stay away from him!" she called back, sounding very protective.

Kilik skidded to a halt, looking over his shoulder at Rena. He blinked at Nina, Sabrina and Rena. Nina's...protecting me? the boy turned around completly.
"I have to talk to him!" she cried out, tears forming in her eyes, "You don't know what it's like...having nobody else in Team Rocket that'll look after you..."
The boy walked slightly passed Nina. "All right...talk to me." He crossed his arms over his chest. Weezing finally caught up, coughing up a little bit of water.
"Why did you join Team Rocket?" she asked, wiping a tear away. "Did you do it for power? Or for something else?"
"I didn't have a choice the second time around..." he growled, "And I could ask you the same thing. You're a great person, Rena. If you left Team Rocket," he placed a hand on her shoulder, "You'd probably be much better off. Look at me. I've got more friends now than I ever did in Team Rocket. They can tell me something and not worry about it at all," he looked over at Nina, "And you sometimes find the one you care about the most, even if you can't see it at first." The boy smiled at Nina before looking at Rena.
She nodded, looking at him. "Kilik..." she wrapped her arms around him tightly. "Thank you..." she let him go. The girl paused and pulled a small item out of her pocket. "Here. I want you to have this," she handed a Metal Coat to the boy. She started walking past the three and outside the Gym. As the door started closing behind her, she let free her Pidgeot, jumping onto its back and flying away."

Nina stood there in awe, staring in the direction that Rena had flown off in. It felt like an eternity before she spoke again. "I... hate to say it, Kilik," she began, "but I think flying home is a good idea right now. I can't never go home again." She turned her gaze toward her sister and her friend.

Mai laughed, walking towards Kasiya at a slow pace. Hiro gave another menacing growl, which the Rocket ignored. "You're a lot like him, you know," she said, putting her hands on her hips. "I didn't recognize it before, only because I wasn't looking for it. But there it is." She smirked, stopping about five feet away from the girl.
"Him? What do you mean, I'm like him? Like Giovanni? I am so not like him, not one little bit!"
"Giovanni? No, not him. You're not strong enough to be like him." She chortled. "I'm talking about Lt. Surge. Your father." The Rocket paused, looking directly into Kasiya's blue eyes. "Our father."
"No..." Kasiya gasped, taking a step back and falling to the ground. "No way. You lie!"
"I speak the truth," Mai said sternly. "Ex-Rocket, and father of each of us."
"No... It can't be. I'm not related to... to you!" Kasiya cried, her voice cracking. It wasn't true. It couldn't be true.
"I'm afraid so," Mai smirked again. "I couldn't believe it at first myself. Me, Mai Masaki, administrator of Team Rocket, with scrawny little Kasiya as my half-sister. A weakling like you, related to me."

He placed a hand on his head and shook it slightly. A little bit of water went about him. Recalling his Weezing, the boy nodded. "All right. The train is a good choice. I don't have any Flying Pokemon. Besides, let's spend some time together on the way there. I don't want us to seperate that fast," Kilik whispered this last bit before leaving the Gym behind him, ushering the girls out of the Gym and closing the door one more time. He headed toward the Train Station in Viridian, his hands in his pockets.

"Kilik?" Nina asked, kind of biting her bottom lip and grinning. "I know this is going to sound amazingly shallow at the moment... But, would you mind if I went shopping really quickly?"

The boy stopped for a second, spinning about on his heel and looking at the girl. "Well..." he shrugged, "I guess. The train doesn't leave for another..." he checked his PokeNav, "thirty minutes. So, as long as you don't take longer than that," he smiled.

"But..." Kasiya stared up at Mai, unable to think of anything to say right away. "But why didn't you say so earlier?"
"I didn't figure it out until I saw his name in your PokeNav," Mai motioned to the item in Kasiya's hand. "And to tell you the truth, I don't even think dear old 'Dad' knows about me himself."
"I didn't know he was my dad until a few weeks ago," Kasiya admitted, her eyes going to the ground. "I didn't even have a clue, and after all this time too..." She could feel a few tears on the way, and she tried her hardest to force them back. "But, I've always wanted an older sister," she smiled half-heartedly up at Mai.
Don't look at me like that... Mai thought bitterly, but was unable to stop herself from smiling back. "Don't let it get to your head," she said. "You're still a rash, undisciplined brat."
"And you're still a mean, cold-hearted b-" Kasiya started, but Mai cut her off.
"I know, I know," the admin rolled her eyes. She's so much like me when I was her age it's uncanny.... The Rocket knelt down in front of her sister, and after a moment or two of hesitation, she hugged the girl. "Get stronger, would you?" she whispered. "You don't stand a chance against Giovanni as you are now." She placed a brown-coloured disc in the girl's hand. "Use this, it should be helpful-"
It was Mai's turn to be cut off as Kasiya had reared back, and decked Mai across the face with her fist, knocking the admin over backwards. "What the hell was that for?" she demanded, sitting up and rubbing her cheek. "I'm trying to have a moment here!"
"That's for knocking me through the window," Kasiya replied stubbornly, and then both girls began to laugh.

(Know what I just realized? Nina and Sabrina's parents are still back on the boat in Vermillion. xd They never left!)
"Don't worry," Nina said, "I won't be that long. I just want to find a change of clothes... I've been wearing these for the longest time." She nodded to Kilik, and then turned, walking to the Viridian Pokemon Mart. She entered, and looked around, noticing that there was a convienient back room, consisting of clothes for trainers and Pokemon alike. There were also several dressing rooms strewn about.
Nina thumbed through the clothes, as if inspecting everything thoroughly. Her eyes lit up when she discovered clothes that resembled something a witch would wear, complete with a cape and hat. She went into a dressing room and the clothes fit rather well, and gave her a little bit of room to grow into them. Exiting the dressing room, she looked around a bit more. Shortly thereafter, she paid for her clothes, and ran back into the dressing room to change into them. Exiting the mart with a bag in her hand that contained her old clothes, she grinned, and felt her hair bouncing a little everytime that she stepped.
She approached Kilik from behind, and covered his eyes. "Guess who?" she said, grinning a bit. I got this awesome set of clothes that reminds me of 'witch-wear...' And I got something else, too. She took her hands off of Kilik's eyes, and turned him around. She was in a stunning white silk dress that seemed to ruffle at the slightest breeze. She smiled a bit. "I... wanted to look nice, since I might not see you for a long time..."

Kilik blushed slightly upon seeing Nina in her new outfit. He smiled at her. "You...do look nice," he smiled. The boy looked at his PokeNav, "We have about ten minutes before the train leaves." Kilik took Nina's hand in his own and began walking toward the station. He looked at her hat and chuckled. "It looks great, Nina." The boy felt his heart pound in his throat. She's right though... he thought, opening the door to the station and letting Nina and Sabrina through, I may not see her again for quite some time. ((They can walk. They have legs. D<))
