Nina looked over in Mike's direction, but didn't say anything. She wasn't even sure what she could say. Her gaze shifted and she looked back at Kilik.
"That's... one thing that I'm especially concerned about," she said. "I know that your time of being "evil" has passed... but for me? I'm not entirely sure. This seems to be genetic in my family; it happened to Sabrina too, but... she didn't kill anyone. And if I were to go back to that state and hurt you again, I'd never be able to forgive myself."

"Nina..." he whispered, "I don't care. I'd be there with you. You brought me away from that state before. Had you not been there on Five Island..." he gulped again, "I may still be with Team Rocket, being Giovanni's favorite lap dog." He brought her into a hug.
"Nina..." he whispered, "you're psychic. You know what I'm feeling right now.." the boy didn't let her go.

With the torrential downpour now upon them, Kasiya grit her teeth and cast a glance over at the cowering Pokemon. It's gonna be okay, she smiled, and then turned back to the battle. She wanted it over quickly, so to strike fear into the heart of this abusive trainer. "It's time for a little Thunderdancing," Kasiya grinned, and nodded to Shocker. "Thunder!" she bellowed, and the Raichu eagerly lept forward, sparks of electricity flashing from her cheeks as she jumped into the air, and called down a powerful blast of lighting that struck the Granbull right on the top of the head, sending the large Pokemon face-first into the wet ground. Shocker landed, looking a little winded from the attack. Kasiya's grin grew wider as she looked to her Vaporeon. "It's your turn, Ariel! Surf!" she called. Ariel brought her forepaws together in front of her, and bowed her head in concentration. A split second later, a massive wave of water, powered up by the pouring rain, rose from behind her, and slammed into the two Pokemon. First, into Sudowoodo who was washed back to its trainer's feet, and then into Granbull, who was only just getting back up again.
Both Pokemon didn't even try to get up, and the boy just stared at them, water dripping from his shoulders and hair. "I can't believe it," he muttered, and recalled them both. Seeing that the battle was already over, Ariel looked up to the sky, and dismissed the rain she'd called, and once again the warm sun shone down on them. The boy walked up to Kasiya, holding a Pokeball in his hand. "She's yours now," he growled. "Do whatever you want with her." He glanced down at the sphere, before he hurled it against the ground with all his might, shattering it into dozens of pieces. Kasiya watched him walk away, her victory only adding to her good mood.
"That'll teach you!" she called after him, when he was already out of sight. Shocker and Ariel both sat beside her, looking proud as can be. "You guys... are awesome," she giggled, bending down to hug them. "I don't know what I'd do without you." She looked up again at the terrified Pokemon, and walked towards her. "Hey there," she said softly, motioning for Ariel and Shocker to wait there. "I'm going to take care of you," she said, picking it up. She was shaking violently, and gasping for breath. "I won't hurt you," Kasiya said, softly stroking her head. The little kitten sighed heavily, and fainted in Kasiya's arms.

Dante who had been enjoying the not raining weather groaned as he saw the rain, he decided to stop just outside of the pokemon created rainstorm and watched the battle curiosly. He looked on in suprise at the powerful attack's coming from the two pokemon. "Wow." Was all he said as he watched the two attacks finish off the other pokemon. He looked over at Kenny as Kasiya and the other trainer exchanged words and the pink pokemon. "You think we should go talk to her Kenny?" He asked curiosly. Unfortunatly for him Kenny was not floating next to him and had instead floated over to where Kasiya stood with the other pokemon with cute little hearts around him.

Shocker and Ariel had noticed their new onlooker, and the duo made their way over to Dante, missing Kenny as he'd floated above them. Shocker climbed up onto Ariel's back, and waved at Dante, her long tail gently moving from side to side. Kasiya could sense another presense, and spotted the Duskull hovering beside her. "Whoa!" she gasped, but paused. "You look familiar," she said, looking closely at the ghost Pokemon, turning to look at Kenny. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Dante, although he'd changed much since she last saw him, and she didn't recognize him right away. "Your Duskull is very cute!" she called, waving at him.

Akane woke the next morning to the sounds and smells of breakfast cooking.. Merle was busy in the kitchen frying some eggs and some bacon. As Akane moved Twinkers opened her eyes groggily. “Faa?”, the tiny pink pokemon yawned.
“How do you like your eggs Akane?” asked Merle
“Sunny side up please. I can't thank you enough, Merle.”
“Don't mention it. Truthfully I'm glad for the company.” admitted the older lady. “And a reason to go shopping” she added.
Akane changed from her baggy sleeping shirt back into her freshly laundered clothes. She noticed that even her shoes were cleaned and waiting by the front door. It was then she vowed to get Merle a present while they were out today. “I think we should leave a note for your husband, so he knows to go to the Pokemon Center if we're not back yet.”

Seeing the two pokemon in front of him Dante smiled and bent down so he was closer to there level. "Hello there, that was quite some battle that you two had." Still smiling he held out one of his hands for the two the other was holding the egg. Upon hearing Kasiya's voice he looked up at her and stared for a few moment's trying to place where he had seen her befor smiling and waving back at her. Even though she looked different as well he recognized her golden hair and cheery smile from the Cherry Blossem Festival. "Thank you, don't let his cuteness fool you, he is an evil little thing." Kenny glared at him but Dante ignored it. "These two are two pretty little ladies as well."

Upon hearing Dante's kind words, Shocker gave a happy cry, and jumped from her perch on Ariel's back and onto Dante's shoulder. She sniffed him intently before she reached down and pulled up the cord that held the beautiful rainbow feather, and admired it for a few moments. "Waichuu," she commented, and let the cord and feather fall gently against his chest. Airel just watched her partner's antics with a cheeky grin, twitching her ears and head fin.
"How can such a little cutie be evil?" Kasiya cooed, and shuffled the small Pokemon so she cradled her with one arm while she reached out to give Kenny a pet. "Ghost Pokemon feel so neat," she added, glancing down as the kitten Pokemon gave a sigh, and opened her eyes for a few seconds before closing them again, content to keep sleeping. It seemed the small Pokemon could sense she was safe, for once. "I think I'd better get this little one to the Pokemon Center," Kasiya said, looking back to Dante. "Her previous trainer was terribly mean to her, so I'm going to take care of her now."
"Seems you're rescuing everyone lately," Flannery said lazily from behind them. Her usual poofy red hair was matted down against her head, and she was dripping wet, obviously from the rain summoned by the Vaporeon. "And remind me to just give you my badge if you ever decide to challenge me," she added. "That was the most incredible Surf I've ever seen." At this, Ariel held her head high, and a few sparkles emanated from her body, making her seem quite radiant.

Smiling at the Raichu on his sholder Dante pet Shocker some and rubber her behind her ear's like he remembered his mother's Delcatty liked. "I see, its hard to deal with pokemon from abusive trainers. We got a few of them turned in at our house and it's always somewhat difficult to get the to understand that you arn't going to hurt them." He said as he slipped the feather off of his neck and wrapped the long cord that it hung from around Shocker's neck looping it around a few time's more so that it would stay. "There we go, you can wear it for a bit if you want. But don't lose it, I need that if I ever want to become a proper researcher. And that feather is why he is evil, what that little ghost put me through to get that..."
"Mpph Humpf Mufl" Kenny said irritatedly.
"Yes well if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have had to go in that tower now would I?" Dante shot back, he wasn't really irritated or anything he just liked teasing the little ghost.
Hearing Flannery's voice he turned his head and regarded her through dark eyes. "Hey... your the gym leader for Lavaridge town arn't you?" He asked not quite sure of that. During all his travel's with his mother when he was younger they had never visted Lavaridgetown.

"Yeah, I know all about that," Kasiya nodded, remembering well the day she'd caught Hiro. The Growlithe had managed to escape from his first, abusive trainer before the already weak puppy Pokemon had encountered Kasiya, determinted to catch him. She remembered how badly he'd hurt Shocker, and what had happened after she'd healed him in Lavender Town. Mike had insisted that he meet the new fire Pokemon - Hiro had nearly attacked her, his new trainer, and would have succeeded had Nitro, the fearless Charmander, not stepped in and taken the hit instead. The two fire Pokemon brawled until Nitro evolved into a Charmeleon, which gave him the upper hand, and the ability to both talk - and beat - some sense into the Growlithe. Kasiya smiled at the memory, although at the time she'd felt horrible. "I'm going to do my best to make sure this little one is well taken care of." She smiled at the sleeping kitten, suddenly realizing she didn't even know what it was.
Shocker had become enthralled with the shining feather around her neck, and she jumped down with it, careful to not let it touch the ground. She continued to admire it as Ariel came over to have a look, and the selfish Raichu pulled it away, keeping it for herself. Airel frowned, and turned her back on Shocker, turning swiftly so that her long tail smacked the Raichu in the back of the head. Kasiya shook her head at the two, but grinned as Shocker made a laughing noise, and happily showed the Vaporeon the beautiful feather.
"I thought you were leaving me to my own devices?" Kasiya asked, turning to look at Flannery, who was now busy wringing water from her hair.
"Yeah, but I heard you yelling and figured I'd better make sure you weren't in trouble. But then it turns out that you gave that guy trouble. And yes, I'm Flannery, of the Lavaridge Pokemon Gym. Pleased to make your acquaintance," she added, holding out a dripping hand to Dante. She grinned sheepishly as she pulled it back, drying her hand on the seat of her pants before extending it again.
Kasiya continued to pet the little Pokemon gently, and turned back to Dante. "Someday you'll have to tell me how you got that feather," she said. "It's one of Ho-oh's, isn't it?"

When Keegan awoke the next morning, he quickly threw himself in the shower again, although this time, he had an entire squadron of guardians in front of his locker. Even as an innocent youth made a move to place his belongings in an adjacent locker, Loki rose up menacingly, hissing and growling so loudly that Keegan could hear him over the running water. He couldn't help but feel better about today as he rinsed the shampoo from his hair.
Soon after, the troupe had a fairly simple, yet surprisingly filling Pokemon Center breakfast, and he was pleased to see that his Pokemon were already getting along with each other. Artemis had won some respect from the others by happily telling them all about her 'victory' over the Swalot (even though it had succumbed to burns inflicted by Helios, but she wasn't about to tell the other Pokemon that, right?). Keegan munched happily on his fairly dry toast while the Taillow re-enacted her battle with the Swablu, much to the delight of Helios, Loki, Themis and Althena.

"it's nice to meet you as well Flannery. It's rare to see a gym leader out of their gym." He said with a warm smile on his face. Kenny had floated over to where Flannery stood with little hearts still around him. He was very happy to be spending time with so many pretty ladies.
"That's allways good. I am sure that little Skitty will be very happy with you." He said as he watched Shocker and Ariel play with his feather befor looking at Kasiya and smiled slighlty. "Yeah it is from Ho-oh, I got it in Tin Tower from the nest at the top. Then I fell through the floor after it had grabbed my hair, it was longer then if you remember, and anyway long story short I ended up in the hospital for the night and that feather." He finished. "So what are you two doing out here?" He asked curiosly.

Nina let out another sigh. "I do," she admitted. "But... I'm just not sure if I feel..." Her voice lowered a little bit. "I'm not sure if, at this moment, I feel the same way... I don't believe that I deserve to be with somebody after what I've done. I need to earn your trust, as well as Mike's and Kasiya's, before I can be happy with myself."

As the two sped twords Mahogony town, Crenu began to have second thoughts about this advaenture. He wasn't sure if he really wanted to do this, and wanted to turn around. Larvitar seemed to be ejoying itself on the handle bar, whe wind whipping him in the face. Crenu slowed the bike and came to a screechign hault as a huge mountain came into view infront of him. "Dang, Mt. Mortar... I compleatly forgot..." He looked down at Larvitar, then back up at the moutain. There's no way I can make it through that moutain with only one pokemon, it's way to risky. I'm not willing to put Larvitar in that kinda danger just yet... He turned his bike around and sped back twords Ekruteak.

With nonstop peddling back twords home, Crenu and larvitar were soon back in Ekruteak. As they entered the town, Crenu slowed as he looked around. Hopping off his bike and walking it around, he almost jumped at the sound of a familiar voice.
"Back so soon?"
"....."
"You know, ever since your father died, I knew this day would come... But why did it have to be liek this! Why have you been so distant these eleven years Shiro!" Tears rolled down his mothers cheeks as she cried out her words. Crenu simply faced forward, looking at the ground.
"...Just leave me alone ma, I'm done with this place. You've never been the same since dad died, youve never given me a reason to be close to you or anyone else in this town! You were too cought up in your own self pitty, why do you care now! You never cared!"
"Shiro that's not tru-"
"I'm done here ma, I don't wanna hear it anymore..."
As he hopped back on the bike, Larvitar looked up at him with a sad expression. Tears began to stream down his face as he peddled off, never looking back once at his mother.
