Startled, Kasiya jerked her head up as Mike called out to her. "Speaking of noticing," she giggled to herself, and gave a sheepish little wave. "Yep, I saw pretty much the whole thing," she said, grinning from ear to ear. "You were awesome, as usual."

Mike grinned, blushing a bit. "Yeah, I try." He glanced back at Nina, leaning in and speaking quietly. "She's gotten better too, I really thought I was going to lose halfway through." He looked down at the Jolteon and smiled. "So, what do you two plan on doing?" He began as he started walking out of the Gym.

"Nina's becoming such a great trainer," Kasiya agreed, watching Mike start to walk out of the gym before she realized she should follow. "It makes me feel pretty lucky to have such amazing trainers for friends." She followed along behind, Flash trailing at her heels. "Us? We're headed south, to Fuchsia City," she said. "Finally going to get that Soul Badge. Seems like that's all I've been saying lately." She chuckled, and glanced down at Flash. This time, I'm getting to Fuchsia City no matter what.

"Really? That sounds like a great idea." Mike held out his new Ice Beam TM and pressed it against Xanthos' Pokeball. To his annoyance, nothing happened. "Um...what?" He grumbled as he released the Pokemon. "Maybe it doesn't work on them all the time when they're inside their Pokeballs." He said to Kassie with a nervous laugh, not wanting to look stupid.
Xanthos eyed his trainer as he pressed the disc to his head once more. Once again, nothing happened. Mike began hitting the Water/Dark Pokemon on the head with the disc. "Why won't this dumb thing work!?" The Crawduant became annoyed at the constant strikes and pushed his trainer, who fell on his butt. Frustrated, Mike recalled Xanthos. "So much for not looking stupid. What's wrong with this TM?" He asked.

Mitsu bit her lip as she pulled away Ebony's Pokeball. She was defiantly attached to the quirky Gengar and she'd hate to see him go even if it was just going to be for a little bit. She was about to place the Pokeball into the machine when she ripped her hand back and placed the Pokeball back onto her belt. "I can't!" she whined. I'll swap Haku for Nightmare after the gym battle.
Mitsu exited the Pokemon Center back into the fresh air of Cerulean City once more. "Hey Karri," she asked freeing the Pokemon from her Pokeball, "Think you can bring me back to Hoenn?" Karri groaned. "I wish I could. Seems like that trip cost me more than it was even worth," she grumbled. Mitsu sighed. "Stuck in Kanto with no idea where the hell I am? Much fun."
She released Zyphyr. Best to bond with the Pokemon, who knew maybe he'd turn around and actually like her. With time anyways. Pleanty of time. "Where should we go?" she asked.

Having had a TM like that in her possession once, Kasiya grinned. "Ice Beam, huh? Hmm. The only thing I can think of is that you've already taught him too many moves through TMs and HMs. A Pokemon's brain can only register so many attacks, I suppose."
At the mention of the words 'Ice Beam,' Flash gave a bit of a grin, and focused his energies like he had before. Balls of orange light orbited his body before they formed into a frosty blue orb, which Flash then formed into an icy ray that froze a nearby tree solid. "Flash, you big show-off," Kasiya sighed, shaking her head at the Jolteon. "But if that's the case, you can always visit a Move Deleter. They can make Pokemon forget unwanted TM or HM moves," she added. "Come to think of it," a near impish grin found its way to her lips, "there's one in Fuchsia City...” she trailed off, and smiled sweetly at Mike, holding out a hand to help him to his feet.

"Get some rest then Karri," Mitsu said pulling the Pokemon back into her Pokeball. You really do deserve it.
Zyphyr, to Mitsu surprise, perched on her shoulder with an awkward squawk. She silently prayed that he wouldn’t . . .relieve himself on her shoulder. He didn't. Mitsu blinked a few times oddly happy that he wasn't trying to take her head off for once. Deciding to push it Mitsu lifted her hand and gently place it onto the bird head. She felt like there was a rush of wind and pictures began to flash before her eyes.
A baby Pidgey being picked on by the others of its flock. It cried out in pain as their beaks pecked at his head. Mitsu felt another whoosh feeling before another little clip played before her eyes.
The look of utter defeat and sadness could bee seen in the perching black eyes of the Pidgey. A bloody Pidgeot lay in front of him it was clearly dead. Mitsu felt a sick feeling as another picture flashed across her mind.
The Pidgey no longer had that longing look in its eyes. It was squinted into a glare as it barked orders at the other of its flock. That included the Pidgeottos and the few Pidgeots. With one final jerk Mitsu was pulled into another picture.
The Pidgey flew from the sky after having been toasted by a Charizard then pulled into a Great Ball. Mitsu ripped her hand away from Zyphyr's head. It took so much more effort than it should have. She took in deep breaths, trying to steady herself and put together what had just happened.

"I'm impressed, that's a cool move for a Jolteon to learn!" He looked at the frozen foliage.
Mike then saw Kassie's sly expression. "Alright, I'll go with you for your battle with Koga." He said, accepting the girl's help. "Who knows, maybe I'll fight him too. "But just walk and talk to the Pokemon Center, I've got to go get Napalm and heal these guys."

"No pun intended, I assume?" Kasiya chuckled, more at Flash's expression than anything else. "Walking and talking is good," she nodded, motioning for Flash to follow them too. The Jolteon walked along beside his trainer, a happy bounce in his step. "I was, however, planning on taking Cycling Road to Fuchsia, but you don't have a bike, and we can't walk on the bike path..."

In no time at all, the duo made it to the Pokemon Center. "Hello again." He said to the Nurse, this had been the third time in two days he had been in here. "Would you please heal my Steelix, Quilava, Ampharos and Crawduant?" He smiled, placing all four of them in a tray. In to time at all the Nurse was gone, already hard at work. "Yeah, bikes are so expensive these days, I don't know how people even have them." He said, remembering that she had a bike herself. "Lucky you, but I'm content with Nitro being my 'bicycle'."

"Yeah, sometimes a bicycle can't get you past a closed gate," Kasiya laughed, remembering yesterday's antics of tunneling under the city walls, and having Hiro demolish another gate entirely. "And I really can't rely on Fang to fly me anywhere. He's too unfocused." She sighed, a faraway look in her eyes. "Sometimes, I wish I had a powerful Charizard, just like Nitro." She laughed, coming back to reality. "But I really don't see that happening anytime soon." She drummed her fingertips on the desk, looking around. "So how are we going to get to Fuchsia, anyways?" She snapped her fingers, suddenly remembering she had a map. "Now who looks stupid?" she giggled, pulling it out of her bag and spreading it out on a empty table to study it, while Mike waited for his Pokemon to be refreshed.

What just happened Zyphyr?! Mitsu mind screamed. She took another deep breath before placing her hand onto his forehead once more. She involuntarily flinched not wanting to sucked into another whirlwind of memories. She was glad that it hadn't happened. "W-was that you?"
"Of course it was you twit! Thanks for completely robbing my memories!"
Mitsu was silent. ". . . I don't mean to."
"Hmph." Zyphyr was quiet for a moment too. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Mitsu blinked. "What?"
"Do I have to repeat myself? What. The. Hell. Is. Wrong. With. You."
"Nothing!"
"All of a sudden you can speak telepathy and read memories? I don't think that qualifies as 'nothing'."
Mitsu breathed in. "I don't know she sighed. I . . . I couldn't even do that before. I don't know why it even happened." She sighed taking her hand back from Zyphyr's forehead. "Did you really think I would have known?" She waited for a response or some witty comment. After a few moments of silence she placed her hand back onto his forehead. "Did you really think I would have known?"
"Of course not . . . even if you're, well you know, smart."
Mitsu couldn't help but smile. "That was nice of you."
"Hmph! Just don't bring up those idiotic memories up with me again . . . I'll tell you when I'm ready." His thoughts sounded like he was muttering and he turned his head away. Mitsu retracted her hand, a smile glued onto her face. She not half bad, that girl Zyphyr thought.

"I dunno, you're the Kanto expert here." He said with a shrug. "I'm from Hoenn remember?" Mike leaned against the counter, waiting for his Pokemon to be healed. "I'm up for anything, it'll be nice to travel with you again."

Am I a psychic like Nina now? Nah, I can't even read people's minds more or less communicate with Zyphyr unless I was touching his forehead. I wonder if it works on humans. Mitsu giggled at the thought. Then again I wouldn't accidentally want to stumble across someone's private memories. The girl walked a few feet away still utterly lost. "Maybe I'll go catch Kasiya's gym battle. Hope it hasn't started yet."
"And now I've got to find a way to get to Fuchsia," she sighed. She needed to study a map or something. This whole always being lost thing was getting tiring. "Beat me and I'll tell ya!" a voice called out. "Your Pidgeotto against my Spearow? Sound good to you?"
Mitsu nodded taking in her opponent. She was a small girl who looked as if she were twelve or thirteen. She was clad in a pair of faded jeans and a green long sleeved shirt. She also wore a pair of dirty blue sneakers. "You're up Spear!" She threw forth a red and white Pokeball and with a burst of red light the bird Pokemon materialized in front of her. "Let's make this a quick one Zyphyr." The battle field was set and so were to two opponents.

Kasiya only grinned, glad that he couldn't see her blushing as she stared down at the map. "Let's see, ah. Here we go. If we head back to Lavender Town, there's route that leads south from there. It's quite a trek, at least a day or two to Fuchsia." She paused, double-checking the distance in her head. "Then again, if we get into trouble, we can hitch a ride on Hiro's back. He's faster than any ground-bound Mach Bike any day." She looked up, and smiled. "But on the bright side, once we set foot there, we can fly back at any time."
