Sammy read the message on her TADS. She then said aloud, "Mr. Cody is studying the crystals, and I'm attempting to help. Where's Mr. Ginji?" She asked, then looked back towards Jack. "I'm good, as always. Why are you tired?" Inquiring such things would probably lead to a more than simple answer, but she still asked anyway.

"Ginji's in Saffron. Needed to beat things up at the Dojo. ^_^" Porygon texted back to Sammy while he danced on the couch. It was fun being electronically enhanced.

Sammy nodded, assuming that meant that Mr. Ginji was letting off some stress. That was good. Still observing the crystal; maybe if she tried some experiments on it, something would point to a new discovery about it.

Porygon looked at the crystal in awe. It was pretty. So pretty. Something in his data bank recognized it. Quickly searching for it, he pulled up an infrared test that the Greenhouse did a few nights ago and threw it up onto the main screen. "^_^"

Cody, being completely distracted by the crystal, didn't even notice Jack was there until the image popped up. Even then he nodded t acknowledge his presence and turned to the screen. He studied the image then looked back at the crystal. If the one in his hand had the same structure as the one on the screen, he might be onto something.

Sammy looked up at the main screen, confuzed as to what the picture was. Quietly, she cursed herself for not paying too much attention in many of her classes. Even so, she could tell that it had... something... to do with the crystals. "Uhm...?" She murmured quietly, a baffled look on her face.

Information as follows. Porygon smiled as he gladly reiterated the information on the screen. ^_^
"Charoite (K(Ca;Na)2Si4O10(OH;F)·H2O) is a rare mineral, named for the Chara River (though this etymology is disputed by some), it is found where a syenite massif has intruded into and altered limestone deposits.
Charoite is a strong, translucent lavender to purple in color, reminding some of a granite or marble with its pearly, swirling luster. However, it is a discrete mineral rather than a rock. Charoite is strictly massive in nature, and fractures are conchoidal. It has an unusual swirling, fibrous appearance, sometimes chatoyant, and that, along with its intense color, sometimes of a "grape" nature, can lead many to believe at first that it is synthetic or enhanced artificially.
Though reportedly discovered in the 1940s, it was not known to the outside world until its description in 1978. It is said to be opaque and unattractive when found in the field, a fact that may have contributed to its late recognition. Charoite is used as an ornamental stone and sometimes a gemstone, generally as cabochons set into pendants.
Charoite often contains inclusions of the mineral tinaksite, which appears as a golden, spire-like shape running through the material."

"Wait, so this crystal is basically just decorative? So I won't turn into Superwoman? Aww..." Sammy frowned, sort of having had high hopes that they had discovered something new to the world.

Porygon turned the page on the screen. "Radioactivity: GRapi = 154.18" He gave a grim look as he looked at the figures and sends a "O.O" to everyone in the chat with him.

Cody looked at the infrared structure, then at the chemical bonds that held the crystal together. "s**t. s**t s**t. Sammy! I need your crystal now!" Cody grabbed the rock from Sammy's hand and held them up in front of Porygon. "Please. Do something!"

Porygon stares at the stones in awe of their beauty before smiling "^_^" and digitizing himself with the crystals. A second later he reappears without the crystals. It was odd how the humes had reacted to the stones once they knew more about them.

Sammy's mouth dropped open when she heard about the radioactivity. Her parents had always told her to stay away from strange rocks, but... "Wait; Mr. Cody, you've been handeling those crystals a lot... Will you be okay?!" She asked worridly, not wanting anything to happen to him.

"I'm gonna be fine," he said in a fake reassuring tone. At least he hoped he was going to be fine. Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't. All he knew was he wanted to be ok. He didn't want to get sick. He would fight anything that came his way.

An infrared beam shot out of Porygon's nose, scanning both Cody and Sammy. His eyes lit up with the glow of data streaming as he found out all the biological information about the two. ";D" and ran zooming away, not showing the results.
