 Lilith turned around, confused. Suddenly, realization hit her like a brick. The malicious grin appeared once more and her hand met Lennyka's. "Partners." Quickly, Lilith made her way through the library, weaving in and out of the book jungle. Her eyes scanned the titles as they sped past until she screeched to a halt in front of a particular book. The book was plucked and leaved through, then Lilith smirked and triumphantly closed the book. "This is exactly what we need." She held the cover to Lennyka. On it were the words "Revenge and You: A Beginnner's Guide." [Granted, the fact that this book even existed was a complete and total coincidence.]

Lennyka gave Lilith a content thumbs-up. Be in just coincidence or not, that book was surely needed. Lennyka was quite ignorant when it came to the fashions of exacting one's vengeance. To her, revenge was like spitting in one's coffee when you bring it for them or putting their hand in warm water when they fall asleep. You know . . . delinquent things that would earn a good laugh.
"So what in there seems good?" she asked, eyes sprawling over the cover still in Lilith's hands. "Should we go for something embarressing? Or maybe . . . "
Dinkley Pigtails was loosing her grip. Would she really be able to do this to her brother? Within that girl's heart was still the innocence of a younger sister, a younger sister who never really wants to hurt her older brother. She couldn't back out now though. She was much too deep in her own grave, climbing out would just be too much of a hassle.

 Lilith nodded to Lennyka and opened the book, skimming through the pages. "The first part of this is mostly simple introductions to it, but the next part has a number of good suggestions." From the way that she leafed through the book like it was nothing, it was clear to see that she had read this book several times before. A moment was spent glancing at the various methods until stopped and pointed at one of the headers. "Here. This chapter has a bunch of ideas that involve triggering different traps. A man invented a bunch of machines that worked as a chain reaction to accomplish a simple task. We can use that concept for our own revenge." Lilith gave a devious smile. She was obviously enjoying herself.

"But what would we use to lure him? We'd need some kind of bait . . . "
Lennyka clutched her chin between forefinger and thumb as she became lost in thought. What . . . can . . . they . . . use . . . ? Suddenly, a snap of her finger lit the sixty watt light bulb in her head.
"Never!" she exclaimed with sudden enthusiasm. "If we can convince Never to partake in our plan, we can fish him in hook, line and sinker."

 Lilith pursed her lips. Bait... She was horribly tempted to suggest using a pretty face, but she held it back. Her train of thought was suddenly derailed at the sound of Lennyka's epiphany. She looked to the woman and grimaced. "Never? Really? You think he'd help us?" Lilith was not entirely sure how the Flareon's mind worked, and it seemed like a long shot to depend solely on his help. Lilith shrugged. "I suppose it's worth a shot, but we should come up with a back-up plan in case he doesn't cooperate."

"It's a possibility. The Flareon is putty in your hands when you meets his needs. Thankfully, he's yours with a pile of Swedish fish and a belly rub. Yet . . . the victim is Sorano after all. He probably wouldn't want to harm his trainer."
Lennyka laughed a little and cocked her head next. Back up? It was always good to be prepared. Once again, Len eyes leered into thought until someone flicked on that light again.
"You." she said and made a small jabbing motion towards Lilith. "He likes you a lot, why don't you use it against him? Of course, if you really want to impress him . . . we're going to have to beauty you up a bit. Are you fond of makeup? I've a full kit of things back in my room."

 Lilith sighed and shrugged her shoulders. It wasn't like Swedish fish were hard to come by. "All right, then... I still think that we should tread carefully with Never in tow. I don't suppose that anyone can tell what he's thinking..." She trailed off into thought. Was this going to work? It may not be such a good idea after all... But she couldn't back out now! Not when she was so close to reaching her revenge! Lilith was snapped out of her thoughts by Lennyka's realization. Her eyes widened in surprise and she pointed to herself. "Me? What're you-" She was cut off by the woman and she blushed. "Stop saying that he likes me!" After the words stumbled out of her mouth, she looked to Lennyka and stepped back in shock. "Woah, woah, woah... Makeup? You want to give me a makeover? I've never done anything like that before!" Lilith was taken aback. What was Lennyka planning...?

Lennyka snickered.
"I'm sorry." she mused. "I just have a tendency of repeating myself a lot."
Lennyka's eyes brightened as if Lilith's words had awakened some new benevolent spirit within her.
"Come, come, this way!" she chimed and grabbed Lilith's wrist. She tugged her along in a high jumping skip. "I can't believe you're serious! Never? Never, ever, ever? Than you won't believe how much prettier you're going to look! Sorano's gonna fall off the face of this Earth when he sees you after I'm done!"

 Lilith was yanked along by Lennyka, and as she was, she had a deep sense of foreboding. What was going to happen when Sorano saw her...? She felt very embarrassed thinking about it, but it also made her feel anxious to be "made over." Would he be happy, or... The unsureness of it all was making Lilith's head buzz like a swarm of angry Beedrill. What was she to do? "W-wait! Hold on a sec'!" Lilith continued being dragged around by the wrist and she was starting to feel slightly sick. The thought of Sorano being happy to see her in makeup didn't help much. Suddenly, another thought popped into the woman's mind: would it be dishonest to get all gussied up for Sorano only to have a prank pulled on him? It seemed like that would be the case... But this was crazy! Lilith had never had any trouble with unleashing her revenge on he enemies before! Then again, could she truly call Sorano an enemy? Or was he a friend?

"Oh?" Lennyka stopped hopping about as if she was a newborn Ponyta filly and turned to Lilith expectantly. "What's the matter? Are you getting all gussy with the fact my brother is going to swoooon over you?"
Lennyka began to mimic her brother by swinging herself left and right with her palms cupping her cheeks.
"Ohhh Lili-poo, ya look so good!" she teased. Her attempt at his accent was horrible though. "I jus' want to eat you ups! Hehehe!"
She stopped after a moment and returned her gaze upon Lilith.
"If you're feeling nervous or guilty, just drop those feelings. Sorano deserves what he deserves, right? Right? Or should I reiterate that he has been playing you like a Celadon City slot machine?"

 A blush as red as the dyed part of her hair appeared on Lilith's cheeks. Her eyes drew wide and she skidded to a halt in the middle of the hallway. She desperately wanted to say "no" to Lennyka, but she knew that she would be lying to herself. She was nervous as hell. The wide eyes lowered down into a glare of rage as Lennyka jokingly mimicked her brother's reaction. Lilith's hands balled up into fists. "Shut up!" Her shout carried all the way down the hall. To her horror, small beads of tears were welling up in her eyes. It took every ounce of will that she had to force them not to roll down her red face. Lilith's face dropped and she sighed. The feelings of rage and hatred towards Sorano came flooding back to her as her immediate fury ebbed. "Maybe he does deserve it..." She looked away. "...But he's the closest thing I have to a friend. I'm not sure..."

"Hmm." So that was the case, huh? Lennyka felt a little guilt sneak up behind her and pounce. Her plan was making a major backfire.
"I guess I can't lie to you anymore, huh?"
The meganekko pushed herself to lean against a wall with her fingers laced behind her back. She closed her eyes for a bit and sighed. Ahhh, she really couldn't keep this up.
"I'm not seeking to exact revenge on my brother." she chuckled slightly. "I lied to my brother and told him the same thing . . . that you were just playing with his heart. He got extremely angry and went stomping about the base to look for you. Of course he wasn't going to check in the library . . . he'd never take a step in there, never."
Lennyka crinkled her brow a bit. "I am truly sorry for lying, honestly. You're the first person to make him extremely happy in so long. Since he was so shy and still pent up with embarrassment about that little . . . err, eskimo kiss, he couldn't seek you out to apologize and choose to get to know you better. Rather, he constantly talked about you. All those other girls? They were just stuff that popped up in conversation."
She paused.
"I devised this little plan to have you and him meet since he still refused to come and talk to you after all this time. That little tidbit to give you a makeover . . . well, that was for my fun, aha."
What a twist!

 Lilith's eyebrows raised in surprise as Lennyka leaned her back against the wall. What did she mean, "can't lie anymore?" That sounded rather fishy... Lilith was unsure whether or not she wanted to hear what was coming next. Then it came. And Lilith was infuriated once more. This was unlike any rage she had ever experienced before. [And believe me, she had been mad plenty of times.] This girl lied to her brother and to Lilith just to get her sick revenge on the man? Lilith's eyes narrowed to slits and her hand once again reached for the girl's collar. She pulled Lennyka into her face and screeched like a distressed Whismur. "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"She had Lennyka in a death-grip. After a second of regaining her composure, she remembered what Lennyka had said after confessing her treachery: Sorano was... happy with her. A blush appeared on her cheeks once more and she pushed Lennyka away. Her eyes were still filled with anger, but she herself had calmed down. She looked once again to the girl. She spoke in a stern voice. "Take me to him. Now."

"LILI, I'M GONNAS KILL YA!" was shouted down the hall in unison with Lilith's scream. Speak of the devil and the devil comes. There was no need for Lennyka to fetch him, he was stomping down the corridor that second.
"What tha 'ell do ya think yer doin'?!" he snarled as he watched his sister get yanked via her collar and let down. He tugged Lennyka away and she immediately swung herself behind him, peeking from behind his shoulder. "Don' ya dare lay a 'and on me sista again, ya . . . ya . . . !"
He couldn't find it in himself to say it. Those pretty green eyes made his flush and he turned.
"C'mon Len, I'm done 'ere." he said. "I was so wron' 'bout ya. 'Ere I thought ya was someone bettah . . . someun' y'know." he flushed again. "Specials. I was wron' though."
With that, he turned and began to walk. Lennyka followed with him but turned to give Lilith a worried look. She mouthed the words, "I'm sorry" at the brown haired girl.
What had she done?

 Lilith's head whipped around at the sound of Sorano's unmistakable voice. She stepped back from Lennyka and felt her heart fill with regret and unbearable pain. Her feet staggered back a few steps more from the angry Sorano. "So-Sorano, I..." Her mouth could not form the words that she so wanted to say. Instead, she could only watch in horror as the only man who had ever looked at her told her off and left her. As he and Lennyka turned to leave, Lilith dropped to her knees and sat in disbelief on the floor. Her eyes, which were filled with rage just a moment before, now welled up with tears of pain and guilt. She began shaking. The eyes clamped shut, as if she could shut out all of the badness. Instead, the hurt flowed out of her as the tears streamed freely down her cheeks. She began sobbing. Through the tears and the gasping spasms, she managed to call out to Sorano. "Sorano! I'm sorry! Please!..." Her voice grew quiet. "...You're the first person to become my friend." She continued crying silently, and her words echoed in her mind. Finally, she stood, still watching the brother and sister walk away. The next words she did not dare utter out loud. ...And I think that I... might... lo-She cut herself off. There was no way she could even think that. Not now. ...Perhaps not ever.
