Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yotta placed a heavy paw on the soccer ball. His pupils had gone back to their original size and his smile had returned. "Found you!" he shouted for all to hear. He turned his head to the right, not really expecting to find another of the group hiding in what was now, plain sight. "HEY!" He bounded over, leaving the ball to itself. A heavy paw was now placed on Ajax. "Found you, too!" He grinned widely, proud of his own achievements. "Now I gots ta find da other two!" As soon as he had come, Yotta was heading back to the rocks, he could just sense one of them was in that area.

The Meowth kitten's keen eyesight had caught sight of the egg seed's movement. He hunkered down when he neared the rocks, keeping a close eye on Caileen. Creeping quieting across the rocks took all of his focus, but as he got into pouncing distance a low rumble began to grow within him. His butt wiggled as he leapt, landing remarkably softly on top of Caileen, still purring. "Found you now too!" He gave her a quick rub with his head and bounded off to try and find the remaining egg seed.

This one would be tough, he wasn't sure where Ura had hidden and there were no clues that he could find. So, he just kind of sat in the middle of the clearing, looking around for a while. Moments passed, his ears strained for any sound that might be her. "She's weally good!" he stated, to no one in particular.

Yotta noticed the ladybug instantly, but didn't put two-and-two together. Instead, he got a little side-tracked and began following the ladybug with his widened eyes. His curly tail flopped back and forth as he watched it buzz off into a neighboring tree. When it was finally out of site, he huffed. He didn't want to give up, his master taught him that was never an option. But, he had no clue where to look.

Scratching his head with a back foot, he decided that his best option would be to get a different vantage point. Once he'd had a good scratch, he chose his tree, the one the ladybug had flown into. With little effort he bounded over the tree and sprang up it as easily as any cat would. From his perch on the lowest branch, he could see quite a different view of the area. But he still couldn't see Ura.

A rustle in a nearby bush caught his attention only a brief moment after he'd climbed the tree. Thinking it could only be Ura, he jumped into the bush from his branch. Not even a second later, however, he was tossed out into the clearing by a very frumpy looking Nidorina. She snorted and was ready to charge the downed Meowth kitten. So much for this game of hide-and-seek.

The Nidorina snorted, she wasn't stupid, she'd seen this type of Pokemon before. She knew that it was a Psychic-type and she had no chance against it. "Stupid cat's not even worth my time!" She roared, "Now get outta here! This is MY territory!" She snorted again, not losing an ounce of the ferocity that she'd come out with. With a few more grunts and clawing at the ground, she plodded off, no damage done.

Yotta, meanwhile, got up, dusting himself off. He looked a little disappointed in himself. He sighed and sat on his haunches. His ears and whiskers hung limply as a smile did not return to his mouth. He wished he could be stronger so something like this wouldn't have happened. These eggs probably thought he was a complete wuss now. He sighed again, feeling completely and utterly sorry for himself at this point. "Sowwy..." He sniffled and wiped his nose with a paw. "I didn' mean ta ruin da fun like dat."

"Yeah... I's okay..." Yotta replied to Ura, almost feeling like he was talking to his mother, Ayane.

When Caileen came over, his attitude took a one-eighty. His whiskers perked up and he puffed out his chest, looking tough. "Uh... yeah! I's fine! Dat's noffin'! You should come see me train sometime! I's train with fully-evolved Fighting-Types! Dey's tough! Dat Nidorina jus' kinda surprised me..." He wasn't lying, though it did kind of sound like he was trying to make himself look less of a fool.

Yotta blushed a bit at Caileen's words. He was not used to this type of attention, but it definitely felt good. He cleared his throat and tried to get the burning feeling in his cheeks to go away. "You all needta come! It'd be fun! And you can meet my master, he's weally nice! And we can play and spar and-"

"YOOOOTTAAAAAAAAAAA!" came a call from the dojo.

"OPE! Dat's my momma! It mus' be lunch time. I'd better go!" He rubbed his head against Caileen and gave a respectful bow to the rest. "It was very nice meeting all of you!" She smiled and bounded home, hoping he'd get to see the group again soon.
