Mitsu soon fell silent as the look in Sasha's eyes seemed to signal something unpleasant for her in the near future. Too near if you asked her. The purple headed girl instinctively backed up, clinking her backside against the railing. Turning abruptly, all Mitsu could see was the deep depths of the vast ocean. It was either the sea or Sasha, and right now, she couldn't tell which one would be more favorable. Mitsu hadn't spent much time with the beautiful pink haired girl, though she could feel that something she wasn't going to like very much was about to happen. "Uh, hi Sasha," she replied weakly, "And not really." She took a quick glace on the bathing suit clad girl. She was indeed gorgeous. At least no one will bother looking at me if I'm next to her, Mitsu thought, I don't need to attract anymore creeps.
And then like a miracle some boy Mitsu didn't know appeared out of the blue. She didn't know Keegan was on the boat, though she figured he was probably here with or for Kasiya despite his apparent hate of the ocean, boat, and all things marine related. With a heave of her chest, Mitsu breathed out a sigh of relief. The prospect of being on camera seem to now occupy the girl's train on thought. Perhaps she could slide on by without being noticed, as stealthily as a Ninjask.

As much as Raz wanted to hang on he just wasn't built for holding onto things and it didn't take him long to get flung off. Still all that shaking seemed to have shaken the water off of his wings. Of course Raz didn't know this and really only tried to fly out of reflex it was luck on both of there sides when Raz just didn't crash hard onto the ground again. "All right! Were back in business Raz!" Robin cheered from the side as her pokemon glowed again as he flipped around in excitement.
"Your pokemon might be back up in the air but that doesn't mean we can't send it back down to the ground. Pelipper use your Wing Attack! Let's smack that dragonfly back down onto the ground." The water bird pokemon made an affirmative sound before it started to fly towards Raz its wings glowing with a light blue energy.
"Raz let's take them down to the ground instead. Slam them down with your Psychic attack!" Robin cheered. She really didn't want to see her pokemon back down on the ground again. While the Pelipper may have gotten its command first and had even started it the bird was no where near fast enough to compete with Raz right now. The Yanma was glowing with the purple energies of psychic before Robin could even finish her sentence. When the Pelipper was about to smash into Raz it got an unpleasant surprise as suddenly it felt like it had a two hundred pound weight on it. With a surprised squak it fell down onto the ground with a painful smack.

Nova closed her eyes and hunkered down as the blazing Fire Spin encompassed her, and for a fleeting moment Keegan wondered if perhaps he'd overestimated the young Charmander. He was about to give Helios another command to follow up with when the flames from the Fire Spin seemed to glow much brighter and intensely than before, and he had to step back as the heat grew too intense to bear. "What's this?" he asked, holding up a hand to shield his eyes from the heat, just in time to see an enormous figure burst through the flames and speed towards Helios. It was ominously dragon-shaped, and though some of its features were that of a Charizard, there was definitely something odd about it. "Nova... evolved?" he whispered, only able to watch helplessly as the winged dragon let out a savage roar before tearing viciously into the Ninetales.
The fierce roars were still echoing in his mind as his eyes opened. Of course it had been a dream as well; he could still see that same godforsaken ceiling above his head, though his position had been changed - it seemed that at some point he'd been moved to the bed. I guess a guy sleeping on the bed looks less suspicious than an unconscious guy on the floor, he thought bitterly. With some effort he was able to turn his head and actually survey the room he was in. There was a small bedside table to his left and a mostly empty bookshelf nearby as well, with only a few travel books and magazines as well as a few gaudy Pokemon statuettes adorning it. He wasn't sure how much time had passed now, though he could tell that for the time being, he was alone. He sighed heavily and closed his eyes again. How much longer would he have to endure this? Despite how warm he felt, he had feverish chills and his head was aching something fierce, and he desperately wished he'd just had Alvero fly him out of Lilycove right after breakfast this morning. He should be busy battling against the gym leader of Petalburg City; not lying helpless and paralyzed on some ship out in the middle of nowhere. Perfect hindsight, he thought, deciding then to focus his thoughts on the sweet revenge he'd have on the Rockets responsible for his current situation.
=====
Miharu couldn't help but start to feel a bit excited about the upcoming battle as she followed the rather happy couple around towards the back garden, which in itself was rather impressive and well-kept. Not only were there flowers, but there was also a vegetable garden. Chuck and his wife were chatting amiably back and forth as they walked, and before long they came upon the outdoor arena, and again Miharu found herself impressed by it. It was in great condition, though she did take note of a lot of training equipment in the area as well.
Chuck was quick to take up a position on the furthest side of the battlefield, and for a moment or so he punched and kicked at the air; probably a means to psyche himself up for the battle. He slammed his hands together and stomped his feet down on the ground sumo wrestler-style before looking over at his wife, who would be the referee for the match. "You both may use up to four Pokemon each," she said simply. "No items, no substitutions, and no time limit. Whenever you guys are ready!"
"All right!" Chuck shouted, punching the air. "My first Pokemon will be... Machoke!" he announced loudly before tossing out the red and white sphere. The Superpower Pokemon appeared in a flash of light, flexing its strong arms. It looked very strong and was clearly ready for battle.
Miharu immediately recognized the humanoid fighting type though she hadn't seen one in person before. She didn't say a word and instead took out her PokeDex, quickly scanning the Machoke. The Superpower Pokemon, Machoke, she read. Machoke's boundless power is very dangerous, so it wears a belt that suppresses its energy. It is capable of lifting a dump truck with one hand, and it willingly aids humans by lifting heavy loads and doing hard work to toughen itself up. Miharu frowned as she closed the device and put it back in her pocket. It wasn't surprising to her to find that Machoke was quite strong, and she knew she'd have to play this one carefully. "All right then, I'll choose Aska," she said, throwing her own Pokeball out onto the battlefield. The ever-energetic Pidgeotto appeared in a flash as well, and she let out a trill as she surveyed the situation. "Be careful, Aska, this isn't going to be easy," Miharu cautioned, and the bird Pokemon chirped in agreement.
"The first round will be Machoke versus Pidgeotto! Begin!" Chuck's wife called, signaling the start of the battle.

Riza let out a small sigh as the familiar pokecenter came back into view. 'Jaeshan was really in a hurry,' she thought to herself, pretty much oblivious to Crenu's inner turmoil. 'He must really have wanted to get his Pokemon healed, though I don't think they were hurt that bad...' her thoughts were put to an abrupt stop as Crenu suddenly turned to face her. "You're welcome," she said quietly, her own heart rate increasing as he leaned in and very quickly kissed her lips. She hardly had time to even react to it as it had been so fast, but even still her own cheeks reddened a bit and she couldn't help but look away for a second as she thought she was going to burst into flames from all the heat her face was giving off. Upon seeing Crenu's embarrassment, however, she calmed herself down and linked her arm with his, wanting to diffuse the tense situation. "What now?" she asked, chuckling a little. "Now we should go get your Swinub seen to. After all, the two of you worked so hard out there that you both deserve a little TLC." Though her heart felt like it was going to burst right out of her chest she pulled Crenu forward and stepped into the pokecenter.
Only a split second after Crenu and Riza disappeared into the pokecenter did a Pidgeot touch down outside, its rider dismounting and recalling the bird into its poke ball. Having witnessed the little event that had just transpired his expression was a mix of amusement and annoyance though it was impossible to tell which emotion was stronger. He adjusted the jet black hair sticking out from under his hat and he put his hands in his pockets as he started walking towards the center. "So this is the guy that's stolen my baby sister's heart." he said quietly.

With one of the Zubat down due to paralysis Katie felt a little less worried for her young Elekid, but she still kept a close eye on him, ready to send out Genki for backup if he needed it. Kord looked as relaxed as ever, deftly dodging out of the way as one of the bat Pokemon dived at him, attempting to sink its fangs into the small electric-type. Kord evaded it with hardly any effort at all, and Katie watched with a slight smile as he then turned around and sent a small bolt of electricity at the bat. Curious about this Katie checked her pokedex, it seemed Kord had learned how to use thundershock. "His first electric-type move!" she said happily, even though he had missed by a good few feet. "Keep using thundershock and you should be able to bring them down," she called out to him.
Kord nodded, and began to whirl his arms, generating a mass of electricity between his prongs. With a cry he let the electrical energy fly but this time he scored a direct hit on one of the Zubat. The brightness lit up the whole area and the shocked Zubat flew off as fast as it could, screeching pathetically into the night. That just left the leader and the paralyzed Zubat. The leader had taken the opportunity to come around from behind and he let out a sharp cry that caught Kord by surprise, an astonish attack. Flinching, the little electric-type dropped to the ground and covered his head with his hands, a little frightened now.

As the mid-day sun warmed the air, footsteps could be heard traveling down the paths of Route 201, along with a voice yelping in slight pain. "Argh! Come on, Clooney! Seriously?! I was just trying to feed you!" a voice complained. "Mmrrraaaaaoooo...." a cat-like cry issued afterward... "Jeeze..." the voice moaned, obviously defeated.
"Maaaoo...?" the Catscratch Pokemon, Meowth vocalized, as though to say 'weeeelll...?' . "...?" it looked up quizically at the young man. "... You want your food, eh?" he smirked, laughing a little. "Now, promise me you won't scratch me! Or you're not getting lunch! Infact... I'm kinda hungry too. I might just eat YOURS!" he laughed. Clooney's eyes watered up, and his mouth frowned. "Maaaaooooo!!!!" he cried out, and rubbed his owner's left leg affectionately.
"Hm... That's a start. Here you go, Clooney." he said, and tossed him the Poke-Snack. "That's all I'm asking. Just a little friendly gesture or two, here and there." the young man said...
"Nero Remus Vestus finally has a Pokémon of his own! And I'm finally going to Sinnoh after all this time..." Nero smiled. "Hmm... Well, the lady down the way said that the next town, Sandgem was a few more miles this way..." he contemplated, as he pulled an apple off a tree and bit into it. "Mmmm.... That's a good ap--"
Suddenly there was a screech, and a rustling of leaves. A dark grey Bird Pokémon bolted out of the leafy tree, obviously angry at the disturbance.
"Ohmanohmanohman!!! What the heck is THAT!? It's friggin' HUGE!" Nero shouted, and stepped back several feet, Clooney behind him, cowering in fear of the Staravia that hovered above them, circling like a vulture who'd found food...

Crenu couls feel every agonizingly long second tick by after he kissed Riza, not sure how she would react. But the redness of her cheeks he could see she too was getting a tad embarrassed, but that didn't make it a good thing. He was almost sure that maybe he'd embarrassed her to much out of the blue like that and that she might be upset with him, and this of course wasn't somethign he wanted. But he felt much easier when she linked arms with him and chuckled as she pulled him into the center. "Yeah, good idea. What's TLC?" He said with a slight look of curiosity, walking in to the center with her. Once inside they walked up to the counter and he placed Swinub's pokeball on the counter for the Nurse to take. "Oh dear, another of Surges victims? I hope your pokemon didn't get hurt to badly." Nurse Joy said with a worried voice as she took Crenu's pokeball and handed it off to a Chansey. She hadn't been seeing as many lately as she was use to but Surge still sent a good number of pokemon to the center. "Yeah, kinda. It was a draw though." Even saying that still hurt. The whole idea of the draw, the badge he'd won burning him though his bag, it wasn't something Crenu was going to be able to let go. Despite the other things pressing on his brain that still had very high priority, which was a show of just how much it truly damaged his pride. But he shrugged it off, or tried to for his and Riza's sake. He was sure she knew it bothered him but he didn't want to make a big deal out of it. Turning to look at Riza he smiled just a bit, something he found himself doing often aroudn her, and noticed someone entering from the corner of his eye but paid them no mind.

"Thank you, Nurse Joy, I really appreciate it," Jaeshan said as he took back the two Pokeballs he'd previously handed over for treatment, and he carefully clipped them into place on his belt.
"You are quite welcome," the pink-haired nurse responded cheerfully, inclining her head. "It's what we are here for, after all. Please take care!" Before Jaeshan could say anything else the nurse had turned her attention elsewhere, and he saw now that Crenu and Riza had finally had made it inside. The two of them were both looking slightly flushed and embarrassed about something, but he didn't question it. After all the two of them appeared to be a couple, at the very least, and he didn't think he needed to be adding to their already apparent embarrassment so he just nodded politely at the two before going over to one of the sofas and sitting down. He needed to rearrange the things in his backpack since he'd dug around to get his badge case out, and now something pointy and sharp had been jabbing at his back. Out of the corner of his eye he saw another person enter the Pokemon Center, but he didn't really pay him much attention. The Pokemon Center was usually a very busy place.
He carefully laid each of his things out around him instead of just dumping everything on the cushions in front of him, and he carefully sorted through everything before putting them back inside neatly, stopping only when he came upon a strange manila envelope he didn't remember having. It had the Devon Corp logo printed on the outside so he assumed it must be important, and he quickly opened it up to look inside. Oh yeah! I can't believe I forgot about this... it's the bicycle voucher I got from Mr Stone for returning that package to him! Hmm, but Rydell's Cycle Shop is located all the way back in Mauville City, in Hoenn. I wonder if they have any stores here in Kanto.
Jaeshan made sure to put the voucher back in the envelope and he carefully placed it back inside as well. He'd figure out what to do with it later, as right now he needed to get to Celadon City. He glanced back over at Riza and Crenu as they stood by the front desk, wondering if the two of them were really going to head to Sinnoh and if he should stick around a bit longer to see them off. Even though neither of them were the friendliest people he'd ever met, he still liked both of them and he wanted to wish them well on their future endeavors.
((FYI this is the most boring post ever. xD))

As the Staravia circled the pair, Clooney struck an offensive posture, obviously attempting to ward off the Bird Type Pokémon. As the Staravia dove down in a spiraling tackle, Clooney pounced upward, letting a fierce cry out.
"Clooney!" Nero shouted, and watched in amazement as his Pokémon launched a quick slicing attack at his foe's eye, leaving a bloody scar on the left side of the face. The Staravia shrieked in fury, and flew upward with Clooney still attached to its back...
"... CLOONEY!!!" Nero shouted up at the sky, "GIVE ME BACK MY POKÉMON, YOU STUPID BIRD!" Nero shouted, and threw a nearby stone into the sky, aimed at where he thought they were. The Staravia flew straight into the clouds... Seconds later, the cloud was puffed away by a blast of wind, and Clooney was falling out of the sky at a rapid pace!
Nero looked upward, and was trying to catch up to where his Meowth was falling, in an attempt to catch it.
He ran with all his might, and it seemed the strong air-current was going to blow his Pokémon into the nearby trees. 'Not if I have anything to say about that!!' Nero thought and jumped as high as his feet would allow him, arms stretched as openly as humanly possible.
He closed his eyes, fearing to see the Cat-Scratch Pokémon splattered on the tree branches.
"Myaaa....ooww...." Clooney drawled pitifully, obviously in a terrible amount of pain. "!!" Nero was shocked, his Pokémon was still alive! "I've got you! Don't worry, Clooney! I'll get you to a Pokémon Center, Asap!" He said, and ran as quick as he could...
"Hold on..."

Pushing itself up the Pelipper glared at Raz who was fluttering around in the air glad to be able to fly again. "Pelipper how about you use your Supersonic on that Yanma, let's see if we can confuse it!"
"Oh yeah your going to confuse us? Well we will just confuse you right back let's show them your Supersonic attack!" Robin ordered right back a big grin on her face. She was having a good time with this battle and she hoped her pokemon were to. Well Black*Star seemed to be having fun as he jumped around and cheered wildly while Luffy laughed loudly.
Both of the pokemon listened to their trainers and soon the room was filled with the sounds of each of the pokemons screeching supersonic and Robin, Luffy and Black*Stars laughter. What happened next wasn't exactly surprising and more along the lines of funny. In the sky Raz's flying started becoming erratic. On the ground the Pelliper started flapping its wings like it was flying only it wasn't really going anywhere. It seemed like both of the attacks had hit and both pokemon were in the throws of confusion. Of course Robin wasn't much help as she found the situation funny and started to laugh even harder.
Across from her John just shook his head and cast a look at the crazy girl across from him. She maybe dressed in skimpy clothing but she was really crazy, he might not want to win this match and win that date with her. "Come on Pelipper snap out of it!"

Riza arched an eyebrow as Crenu gave Swinub's poke ball to the nurse. 'What's TLC? Is he trying to be funny?' she thought, refraining from smacking her forehead with her palm. But then again with someone as callous and stoic as Crenu she shouldn't be surprised that he didn't know what it meant. "Tender Loving Care," she said quickly, though once she said it out loud she suddenly realized how silly it sounded. "Er, uh, nevermind. It's silly. Forget it." She wasn't sure how it was possible but she knew her face had gone even redder than before, and she tried desperately to think of something to change the subject.
Jaden stepped through the pokecenter's sliding doors and took a quick glance around before spotting his little sister and the boy who he assumed was Crenu near the front counter. She hadn't noticed him yet but he was sure she soon would, as he was grinning as he approached the desk. He set his Pidgeot's poke ball down on the desk, deciding that the bird Pokemon could use a checkup. Then, pretending to only notice Riza then, he walked over to her. "Riza, fancy meeting you here," he said, looking down at his little sister even though she wasn't that much shorter than he was anymore.
Riza's eyes first widened with surprise and then with horror when she saw her older brother approach her, and she glared at him. "Jaden! What are you doing here?" she asked angrily, planting her hands on her hips and continuing to glare. "Checking up on me, of course!" she added after a moment or two, answering her own question. Though she'd initially missed having him around his sudden appearance here in Vermilion pretty much nullified it, and now she was more annoyed than anything else. It was so Jaden to do something like this and even though she knew that he wanted to make sure she was doing ok it still pissed her off a lot.
"Oh, come on Rizzy, come down," Jaden laughed, not at all put off by his sister's annoyance. "Is it a crime for me to want to see my baby sister after she so heroically left home for her own journey? Besides, I want to see that badge you just told me about, and meet your friends, and of course your Pokemon too. Aren't you going to introduce me?"
'No, I'm not,' was Riza's very first thought but she knew Jaden wouldn't give up so easily. She sighed and rolled her eyes, her slender arms dropping to her sides in defeat. "Fine. Jaden, this is Crenu, and Crenu, this is my older brother, Jaden."
"Hey Crenu, nice to meet you," Jaden said brightly, offering his hand for Crenu to shake.
* * * * *
Kord was still trembling a bit as he jumped back to his feet, having been shaken up by that previous astonish attack. The paralyzed Zubat had managed to get back up into the air though it was having a hard time staying airborne. Gritting his teeth the Elekid rushed forward, once again whirling his arms to generate another current of lightning which he formed into a thundershock. It struck the already ailing Zubat and that was that, it decided that it didn't need to stick around and take anymore of that. Gasping for breath Kord landed on the ground, spinning to face his remaining attacker. This Zubat was a bit stronger than his two toadies had been but Kord was sure he could beat him, though he currently felt too winded to try and charge up another thundershock.
"Hang in there Kord," Katie called out encouragingly. "You've beat two of them, now there's just that last one!" Nodding, the young Elekid stepped back a bit, still catching his breath. Sure, he didn't have wings but he was sure he could outrun the bat either way. "Show him your quick attack!" Katie called. Nodding once more the small electric-type rushed forward, a bright streak of white light streaming from behind him. He jumped, arm extended in order to try and slam his fist into the Zubat but it was able to move out of the way. Kord, having not anticipated missing made heavy impact with the hard ground, and though it hurt a lot to fall like that he got right back up again. He was far from being done!

He looked at her strangely at first, Tender Loving Care? Why would they need that after a battle? But whatever, he decided not to question it. By now a third person joined them and started talking with Riza, and after being introduced he offered him a hand. Crenu nodded, shaking this new guy's hand firmly as he stared blankly at him. "Likewise I'm sure." He said rather coldly, though it wasn't anything personal really. He glanced at Riza quickly, though he'd been watching her from the moment this guy had entered and addressed her. It was clear that his presence annoyed her, much like Kenneth's presence annoyed him. For whatever the reason, she wasn't happy to see Jaden, though he figured it might have been simply because she felt he was checking up on her. But she had dropped her arms to the side in apparent defeat, this was the relationship one tends to have with older siblings. Or at least that's what he'd heard. "So you're Riza's older brother then, funny, I don't think she ever mentioned you before. Though in all fairness we haven't had all that many conversations where such details might surface. But never mind, trivialities are just that and best left alone. Jaden, I'll be straight with you and I apologize in advance if I come off as rude in any way. Your sister...she's an interesting young woman and I've grown to like her quite a bit. As her older sibling I'm not sure how that makes you feel, and quite frankly I don't care. Whatever is going on between you two to make her seem so upset by your presence isn't my concern either, though I would prefer not to see her like this. But all things aside if you wish to say anything to me or ask anything then please feel free to do so. If not, that's fine as well and you can go about your business with your sister, I'll remain or leave depending on what she wants and what she wants alone. Again, I apologize if what I say or do doesn't sit well with you and 'rubs you the wrong way', but again I don't really care. Know that I'm not trying to make enemies, but I'm not looking to make any friends either." Crenu's words were plain and simple, and his face as casual and stoic as ever as he placed an arm around Riza hoping to cheer her up a bit.

Jaeshan had been about to stand up and walk over to Crenu and Riza but they had been joined by a tall young man whom he'd heard Riza introduce as her older brother. It was obvious that Riza wasn't happy to see him, Jaeshan could understand why, yet at the same time he couldn't help but feel slightly envious of Riza. He'd always wanted a brother or a sister, younger or older, though it became quite apparently early on that his parents had no intentions of having any more additions to their family, and that Jaeshan would remain an only child despite his protests.
He stood up and stretched, and though he wasn't trying to eavesdrop on the others he couldn't help but overhear the conversation, and he also couldn't help but smile a bit as he heard Crenu speak. He really cares about her, he thought, thinking that Keegan could indeed take a lesson from Crenu in these matters. Clearing his throat a little he slung his backpack over his shoulder and approached the three of them, wearing a sheepish and apologetic smile. "Uh, sorry to interrupt but I think I'm gonna take off," he said, glancing between each person in turn. He didn't think they would have minded if he just up and left, but his well-mannered upbringing had taught him better and his conscience wouldn't let him. He looked towards Jaden and offered his hand. "It's nice to meet you, my name is Jaeshan Devereaux."

Jaden nearly took a step back from surprise as he hadn't expected Crenu to be so defensive over his relationship with Riza, and even though his tone was stoic and icy Jaden was sure he could sense something else in there as well. He looked towards his sister who had gone scarlet at Crenu's words, and he smiled a bit, unable to remember a time when he'd seen her blush so furiously, so he was sure whatever there was between the two of them it was mutual. "I don't think there is anything that really needs to be said," Jaden replied with a shrug. "I want Riza to be happy, and if being with you makes her happy, then it's all good with me." The good natured older brother glanced over as a fourth person joined the group, and Jaden smiled, shaking Jaeshan's hand. "Likewise. I'm Jaden Harding, older brother of Riza's." He looked back towards Riza, who had remained quiet this whole time, and smiled again. It seemed she had indeed made some friends, and he was glad for that.
It wasn't until she heard Jaeshan's voice that Riza snapped out of her silent fuming, and she relaxed a little when she felt Crenu put his arm around her. It had felt as though they had been talking about her like she wasn't even in the room, but when she heard Jaden say that he wanted her to be happy, she smiled again, even though she knew that Jaden really was just checking up on her. "Where are you going now, Jae?" she asked curiously. "And I think we should exchange phone numbers too." Jaeshan was easily the nicest person she'd met so far on her journey and she wanted to be able to stay in touch with him. She glanced over at Crenu, realizing that she didn't have his number yet, either.
* * * * *
'Maybe we should just make a run for it, Kord's looking pretty tired,' Katie thought. The Elekid had got up off the ground after missing his target, and though he had got up right away Katie could see that he was having trouble catching his breath. She held up his poke ball and attempted to recall him, but Kord would have none of that and he deftly jumped back to avoid the red beam. "Bi bi bi!" he shouted angrily, more sparks flying from his prongs.
"Okay, fine," Katie chuckled, letting her arm drop down. "You don't have to be a hero though," she added even though she was sure Kord wasn't listening, as he was already locking his gaze on the Zubat again. "Try another Thundershock! Zubat is a flying-type so you should be able to score some big damage if you can hit it."
The Elekid nodded and began to whirl his arms around, generating some more electricity with which to attack. The Zubat decided to dive at Kord again but this time the Elekid was paying attention, and he moved out of the way while continually generating power. The Zubat could see that it was going to take time for the Elekid to fully charge the attack so it swooped down on him, screeching loudly. Kord grit his teeth and sidestepped to the right, narrowly avoiding what Katie assumed was an attempted Leechlife attack. "Keep going!" she called, wanting this battle to be over with.

"Yes, as long as she's happy." He said calmly, though a bit of a smile came to the corner of his mouth to see Riza turn so red. He didn't mean to embarrass her to much, but he simply said what he felt he needed to say. Crenu glanced at Jaeshan when he approached them, Nurse Joy placing Swinub's pokeball on the counter and staying out of the conversation. Crenu clicked the ball back on his belt, not very interested in where the other tall blond was headed. He decided not to say anything and just nodded in his direction, looking back at Riza after she mentioned phone numbers. Without having to ask he knew what she was thinking and pulled his phone out of his pocket. "Don't know how you got a picture of me on your phone without asking for my number." He said with a bit of a chuckle as he gave them his number. Thinking about it he still wasn't sure why Riza had taken his picture and put it on her background. Oh well, that didn't matter now. He looked back at Jaden, he didn't seem like a bad guy really. Riza was probably just upset because she felt she was being babied.

Sere was glad to see that the people were finally starting to break appart so that walking through the crowd was no longer as scary as it was when she first got on the ship. It probably helped quite a bit that Kasiya was right at her side. 'What on Earth made me think that I could get through this trip on my own. I should have left George out so that he could keep me safe.'
Kasiya turned and smiled back at her. 'Awefully nice of her to come find me and let me sit with her. Though now I feel as though I'm slightly underdressed for the trip.' Serenity thought taking note for the first time of the slightly pampering that Kasiya had done to her self. 'I wonder if she did this for Keegan?'
"Kasiya? This friend of yours....is she nice?" Sere asked as the closed in on the pool area. "I mean, will she be okay with you br-bringing me along?"
