"I suppose you're right," Keegan sighed, also closing his eyes. What did Team Rocket want? It seemed they'd stopped them before they even started, but Joe's chilling words echoed in his mind. "These Pokemon will make excellent additions to Team Rocket!" Had they been out to capture strong Pokemon from their trainers? He didn't know. He too soon fell asleep, snuggling his Psyduck under his good arm as they continued along.

Kasiya awoke sometime later, they were still on the road. She glanced up to see Keegan was still out, but he looked like he was resting comfortably. The medic was resting as well, but his eyes were opened as he watched thorugh the window.
"Where are we?" Kasiya asked, sitting up and yawning.
"We've just passed through Violet City," he replied, looking at her with a smile. "We're more than halfway now."
"How's Keegan's arm?" she asked again, feeling a faint chill run through her.
"It's not as bad as it looked," he said with a nod. "The burnt cloth from his shirt made it appear worse. They'll probably keep him until tomorrow night, at the very least."
"Thank goodnes," Kasiya said, relieved. She got that chill again, feeling like someone was watching her. She looked over to see that Althena the Psyduck was staring at her. "Uh, hello," she smiled. "Hear that? He's going to be okay."
"Psy." Althena climbed down, and into her lap, getting ready to go back to sleep.
"Cutie pie," Kasiya sighed, closing her eyes and resting again.

Keegan awoke as they reached the hospital, and brought him inside. He didn't remember much of his trip as he was exhausted, but he did remember them ushering Kasiya into the Pokemon Center which was oddly enough, located nearby. At one point he realized Althena was missing, but he didn't have the strength to inquire about it.

It was still very dark out when Kasiya was shuffled into the Pokemon Center, with her belongings, and suprisingly enough, two of Keegan's Pokemon. She had Themis' Pokeball still, and a sleepy Psyduck in her arms. "Now what?" she thought, yawning. The nurse wasn't in, so she couldn't get treatment for them now. She did know Themis needed treatment the most, Fang had taken no damage during the battle, and Seto had survived a Surf attack and a Leech Seed. She curled up on the empty couch, Althena by her side, but found herself wide awake. "I know how to ease the loneliness," she smiled, releasing her entire party. Shocker and Ariel climbed up onto the couch by her feet, snuggling in deeply. Adamantine found a place in between her and Althena, while Fang found somewhere to 'hang around'. Seto and Hiro curled up on the floor in front of her. "Much better," she sighed happily, the company of her Pokemon enough comfort to help her fall asleep.

Mike stretched out his arms and let out a yawn, covering his mouth of course. "Lavaridge sounds really good, but you know what sounds better? Sleep." He walked over to the counter where his Pokeballs were in a tray. He thanked Nurse Joy as he clipped them to his pack strap. Releasing Portabello and Felsic, Mike snuggled on the couch with a blanket and a pillow, making sure to scootch in just in case a certain someone wanted some room.
Portabello sprawled out on a chair adjacent to the couch, a good night's rest was definatly on his to do list.
Felsic hopped up onto Mike's head and nestled in his hair, falling fast asleep.

"Sleep sounds wonderful," Mitsu said choosing Mike's shoulder over a pillow. The day had been exhausting and it was just what she needed. Mitsu was out like a light in a matter of moments.

(( *smashes IE into a thousand tiny pieces, and lights the pieces on fire* )) For the third time that evening, Keegan awoke in a different place, gaining his bearings as he opened his eyes and looked around. He definitely felt better, his body felt less battered and he could move freely now. "Do they use Super Potions on people?" he asked, his voice reverberating through the empty hospital ward. He sat up, studying his gently bandaged arm, realizing the pain was far less intense than before. "They must have used a Burn Heal too," he chuckled, lying back against the soft, fluffy pillow and sighing.
He glanced over at the bedside table to the left, noting three Pokeballs, and a pile of clothing - his, of course. "Oh no, not those horrible hospital gowns..." he moaned, suddenly feeling very...exposed. He pulled the blankets up to his chin, and reached over for his Pokeballs. He manadged to reach two of them, but to his dismay, the first one was empty. He knew it was Althena's, and he hoped with all his heart she was safe and sound with Kasiya. He was relieved to see the second one contained Helios, and the happy Vulpix curled up with his trainer, content to enjoy each other's company. The two Pokeballs rolled down and onto the bed beside him as Keegan fell asleep again, his dreams filled with Rocket attacks, intense battles, cotton candy, and kisses from cute blonde girls.

Mike slept soundly, Mitsu's body heat kept his body warm and his heart pumping. He dreamed of championship, of the Elite Four crumbling before him, and her. He stirred little, and was out untill early morning.
...
Mike woke up to a rather unexpected sight. Apparently Mistu had mosied on up a bit and her chest was pretty much in his face. "Hm." He said to himself turning slightly red in the face. Gently crawling out and tucking his friend in with the Pokeball adorned covers, he walked to the door, putting on his favorite hat. Felsic dove and clung to his back, obviously an early bird. The two exited the Center for a morning stroll, The Cyndaquil hopping to his usual spot on Mike's head.
Portabello sat in a meditative state, the tall couch hiding him.

Mitsu stirred a bit as Mike left, although she hadn't noticed. She was still out like a light not having much sleep in the last few days.
Karri on the other hand had woken quite early as well. She floated around the center and then outside to catch the morning breeze. People could be seen taking the remainings of the festival apart.

Mike glanced back, noting the graceful Pokemon following them. Before he could let out a "Hi Karri." Felsic dove at her in full cling mode. "Cute." Mike said, brushing his har with his fingers back into place and putting his hat back on.

Karri caught the little Fire Pokemon and tossed him in the air a few times. "Isn't he though?" Karri said with one of her classic smiles.

Mike tossed two more of his Pokeballs into the air, Nitro and Titanium bursting out. Titanium landed with a surprisingly soft noise, as Nitro flew circles and landed on the Steelix's nose.
Mike hopped onto the massive metalic snake as he slithered around the Pokemon Center for some exercise.
"I wonder what today holds for me and my friends." He said to himself, kicking his legs as he sat on one of Titanium's fins.

Mitsu woke up a bit later rubbing her eyes as she sat up. After a washing up a bit and splashing some cold water onto her face she left the Pokemon Center.
Soon enough she spotted Karri and Mike's massive Steelix. "Good moring!" she called looking up at the duo.

Kasiya woke up the next morning, still amazed to find the Pokemon Center empty. She handed over all the Pokeballs for treatment, shrugging at the odd look Nurse Joy gave her. She reclaimed the seven Pokeballs and a Psyduck, clipping her own into place. Althena climbed up onto her shoulder, in Shocker's usual place. "Let's go see Keegan," she said, deciding to forego another Pokemon Center breakfast and headed outside. She followed the signs until she reached the hospital, a tall, clean-looking building, located fairly central. "I hate these places," she sighed, walking inside.

Keegan poked grumpily at his hospital breafkast, not too keen on testing the rubbery eggs. He shoved the plate aside, and leaned back, wishing he could put his chothes back on. He waited patiently as the nurses checked his vital signs, changed the bandages (it really was a lot better) and tried to convince him to eat his food. He sighed, wishing they'd discharge him soon.
