Luckily for Mike, Flannery hadn't heard him (or at least exactly what he'd said, anyway) as she walked up to the gym doors, tossing the keys up and down. Allie's eyes followed their every movement as the two reached the gym. "So do you actually plan on going through the gym's maze this time, or are you gonna cheat again?" she asked casually as she unlocked the door. Allie had climbed up onto her shoulder, and was watching Mike intently, her puffy tail twitching slightly.

"Slateport's a harbor town in Hoenn," Jaeshan replied almost automatically, and leaning back against the couch. "I asked a friend of mine to do me a favor, and he's come through already," he added, crossing one leg over the other and folding his hands neatly in his lap. "Now he wants to meet me in Slateport. And I'm guessing soon."

"...I see," Keegan said, after a moment of contemplation. "You want me to help you dress like a girl, so you can get into an all girls' gym. And what do you mean, again? You cross-dress often?" he asked, amused by Dante's embarassment. He bent down, setting the egg case on the ground and massaged Bahamut's back, between her wings with his now free hand, hoping the clingy Pokemon would relax a bit now. Celadon Gym, he thought, trying to supress his laughter. We were only just there a few days ago. He smiled at the memories he held of that place. The pretty girls, the great gym battle he'd witnessed, the pretty girls. He glanced back up at Dante, and nodded. "Sure, I'll help," he said. "I've got nothing pressing to do, and heck, maybe I'll go with you to the gym," he added hopefully. "Err, after I get this egg to its rightful owner."
God, I suck at this job.

Dante laughed somewhat nervously but relieved that Keegan would help him. "I dont do it often, but when I was younger and my mom was still a traveling trainer she would often dress me up as a girl because it was easier to get a free room somewhere other then the pokemon center. You would be amazed how different a young mother and a daughter are treated compaired to a young mother and a son." Dante shrugged slighlty. "That was a while ago though so I need some new clothes." Glancing at the egg on the ground he looked at it curiosly. "Whats in that one?" He asked as he clutched onto his egg now just now noticing that it was wiggling a bit, not much but it was a sign, or something. Bahamut gave a happy cooing sound as she was massaged and scuttled up Keegan's arm and up up onto his head and settled herself into his now messy red hair.

"Right then," Keegan nodded, appearing to not care that he now had a large dragonfly making a nest out of his hair. He picked up the case once more, adjusting for the awkward weight on his head. "Uh..." he mumbled, thinking about it. You should know this, you moron, he scolded himself, blinking a few times as he started at the pale orange egg. "Torchic. It's a Torchic. I hope," he added, pulling out his Pokenav with his free hand. "So where do you want to shop?" he asked, choosing Jaeshan's name and sending another quick text message.
Change of plans. Meet me in Celadon.
"Because it doesn't really matter to me. I'm gonna meet my friend in Celadon to give him the egg, so we can go where ever you'd like. I definitely want back in that gym, though," he added, with a chuckle.

"A Torchic huh... I always wanted one of those." He said as he stared at the egg for a moment longer befor shaking his head. "Why dont we just go to Celadon? I can always find a place to shop there I dont really want to go that much out of the way. Besides that means that we are closer to that free TM!" He said determindly, "And I suppose a badge as well." He added that last bit like an afterthought. Bahamut now happy in her new 'nest' watched her souroundings from a different, not floating angle.

"Sounds like a plan," Keegan nodded. "Let's get a move on, then." He turned to start walking, wobbling a bit as he was slightly off balance, thanks to his 'rider'. The last time I got in there was because I was with Kassie, and she was friends with Erika. But I don't think she'd let me in even if I was pretending to be 'with' Dante... The boy's face was screwed up in thought as he walked. I'm not dressing up as a girl, he thought bitterly. Maybe I can just peek in through a window or something...?

Mike looked up to his Gym Leader, pondering her question. "Well, that all depends." He let a smirk escape as he stood up, leaning over and placing his headon Flannery's shoulder, or as high as he could as she was much taller. "It depends on how much you loooove me!" He allowed a dopey toothy grin to slip out, tilting his head as to look up at Flannery.

"All right then. Do you want me to put her away?" He asked making a vague motion to Bahamut who gave a small chear when Keegan started walking clearly having fun on her new ride. In the back of his mind he was allready thinking of how exactly he was going to get in and his new 'outfit' would be like. Sighing he shifted the blue and orange egg in his arms a bit, not having a convient carring case like Keegan had and pushed those thoughts out of his mind for later and instead hopped that he still looked good in a dress. "So who are we meeting there?" He asked curiosly falling into step next to his new traveling buddy.

This time, fully awake, Kasiya reluctantly dried herself off, and dressed herself, wearing a light pair of sandals and the pale pink sundress she'd kept from the boat ride to the island. She pulled her hair back into two small pig tails. Cute, yet effective at keeping her hair from her face. Satisfied with her apperance, although feeling a little naked without her lightning bolt pendant, she gathered her things and went back into the main area of the Pokemon Center. All her Pokemon were where they should be, safe for Allie, who was with Flannery, and Fang, who was with the kind nurse. She gave her thanks to the nurse, who wordlessly handed over the Crobat's Pokeball and quickly went back to work as Kasiya stepped through the sliding doors, feeling a bit better now that she'd relaxed a bit.
She walked a few paces, and stopped, looking at Fang's Pokeball intently. The dream still haunted her, but she knew it was impossible. Wasn't it? She bit her lip, and tossed the sphere into the air, so Fang could be released in the usual manner. A puzzled expression came over her face as he didn't appear, and the Pokeball sailed up before gravity interferred, and the Pokeball came right back down, and bounced off her head. Kasiya uttered a swear word as Fang came out of the Pokeball, standing on the ground and looking at her, his four wings folded neatly at his sides. The Crobat gave her an irksome look, and then turned his gaze away.

"She's not bothering me," Keegan shrugged, keeping his pace slow until Dante fell into stride next to him. "Well, I call him a friend, but he's more of an accquaintance," Keegan admitted. "But maybe you know him. Tall, blonde kid. He's got a Mightyena and a Nidoking. Jaeshan," he said, adding in the name at the last minute. Where is my brain today? he thought, shaking his head sadly. "So do you actually have a plan for getting in there? Or are you just gonna put on a dress and waltz in?" he asked, strangly eager to keep up a conversation.

Flannery gave a slight laugh. "What's that got to do with anything?" she asked him, pushing down on his forhead in an attempt to cause him to stumble. "It all depends on if you actually plan on following the gym rules," she said, opening the door wide and walking inside. "For once," she added, sighing and breathing in deeply. She was home.

"All right then." He said keeping an eye on his bug like pokemon. THinking back he tried to put remember if he had ever meet Jaeshan. "Was he the kid at the Cherry Blossem festival who recieved the Bagon?" He asked not quite sure. "As for what I was planning on doing... I have no idea. All I know is that they won't let boy's enter. I figure I will put on a dress, or whatever, and go with it from there. Hopefully everything will work out, but knowing my luck something will go wrong." He finished that last bit with a small smile on his face as he fingered the feather around of his neck remembering the last time something that was supposed to be simple went wrong, suprisingly the feather gave out a brief flash of warmth as he touched it. Dante didn't pay much attention to it as he looked at Keegan again and smiled slightly. "So do you think I have what it takes to pass off as a girl?" He asked a bit jokingly.

"Oh, Fang! That wasn't directed at you!" the girl cried defensively, taking a step towards her Pokemon. Fang snorted and continued to look away. "What's the matter?" she asked, bending down so she could be at eye-level with him. "Are you upset about the Tropius battle?"
Fang said nothing, and slouched a bit, which Kasiya took for a yes.
"It was only one battle," she told him reassuringly. "There'll be others. And some day, we'll challenge Winona and her Tropius again. And when that time comes, we will win!"
Fang continued to sulk, not at all uplifted by his trainer's words. He glanced up at her, gave her a sad look, then, his four wings unfurled, and powerfully lifted him off the ground and into the air.
"Wait!" Kasiya cried, trying to grab him as he flew out of reach. "Where are you going?" Her face was panic stricken, and she tried to chase him as he flew off overhead, down the street. The much quicker Crobat easily eluded the grounded human, leaving a baffled Kasiya behind.

Mike grumbled, crossing his arms. "But I've done that puzzle dozens of times!" He frowned, following Flannery inside. "And besides, I really don't want to lose my battle buzz because I'm getting lost in your Gym. That's just no fun." As he walked inside, Mike was reminded of his previous battle, how he sent out all the wrong Pokemon, forgetting to use Nitro all together. He recalled Felsic's brave assault on Flannery's Arcanince, and his evolution.
It will be different this time.
