TerashiLeonGoken "Keiko. Nice to meet you," Keiko says, shaking RC's hand and smiling. "Nice to meet you, Keiko." RC says. "So, what brought you here to our unique little family?" RC asks her as he lets off another puff of smoke.

Keiko smiled a bit at the question. "Oh, I kind of stumbled in here after getting lost nearby. That seems so long ago, though, even though it's only been a few months. I can't remember what I was doing when I got lost, though..." she explained.

Leslie would giggle at the Cottonee's little appearance before softly grabbing it from Tsura's head. "Soft." She would mutter before holding the Pokemon towards Kairi. "Maybe you can snuggle this little guy and feel better?" She would ask apprehensively. Letting go of the Cottonee to hopefully let it drift to Kairi, Leslie would turn to Tsura. "So where'd you meet Kairi? Because I am not sure when you would've met her." Leslie would look at Tsura with a puzzled look.

Keiko took a sit and looked back at her experiences with the group in the recent past. "I think we're doing good in the world, even though we sometimes how to be careful about how we help. I can't say I've agreed to everything I've seen, and there are somethings I wish hadn't..."
Keiko shook her head at herself and flashed a smile at RC. "All in all, I'm happy to be here. To be able to help make a difference in the world."

Athena would give a cheerful little grin up at Leslie as it was held by the blonde girl. And when it was released from her grasp, she floated over to Kairi, trying to nuzzle its face against her. The redhead stared at it for a moment before sighing, petting its head. The little Cotton Puff Pokemon was rather soft, and although it couldn't help Kairi's need to be with Reno, it did make her smile for a moment. At Leslie's question, both Tsura and Kairi looked toward her and then looked to each other. The smile on Kairi's face disappeared and she looked away. "Go on Tsura, answer her question," she mumbled. Tsura sighed, realizing that Kairi was still hurting over her leaving her behind, but, she readied herself to answer the younger girl's question. "Kairi and I met on the streets of Goldenrod. I was there when she left her family to live on the streets. She was an innocent little girl then, though obviously abused. I could tell the minute I saw her, not because of her bruises, but because of the look in her eyes. She looked... broken," Tsura stopped for a moment, looking to Kairi, who was still looking away from her and petting Athena's head. "We met Reno later, and him and Kairi became fast friends. I stuck with them for a while, helping them along, teaching them how to fend for themselves and to do what they must when it came to living out on those streets. Eventually though, I felt like I was no longer needed, so I left. I went home to my family, and found out that they were moving back to Unova, and... I went with them." Kairi was glaring at Tsura now, obviously angry. She went to move, to get up and leave, but Tsura stopped her, glaring right back at the redheaded girl. "You need to stop being mad Kairi. I did what I thought was the right thing at that time, you need to accept that. Nothing will change the past, so stop living in it," Tsura finally said, not necessarily angrily, but still very harsh. Her words were meant to snap the other girl back into reality, but obviously they just hurt her more. "Some scars just don't heal Tsura. You abandoning me is one of those. I don't know if I could ever forgive you for that," Kairi snarled back. Dante looked panicked for a moment as he realized just what was going on. "Leslie, maybe you should go take Kairi to her room and talk some sense into her. You'll probably be better at calming your sister down than I would be. I'll... I'll stay here with Tsura," Dante whispered into Leslie's ear, just quiet enough that neither Tsura nor Kairi could hear him. Not that they would have heard him anyways considering they looked like they were about ready to kill each other at the moment. There was a slight blush on Dante's face as he had said the last part, his crystal blue eyes wandering slightly to glance over at the brunette.

Leslie would look at the pair fighting before deciding that instead of making them back off like Dante suggested, she would take matters into her own hands. Grabbing the back of both of their heads, she would send them crashing together before forcing them back into separate seats. "Now, I can see this is a major issue of Kairi being abandoned, but if anyone here should be whining about being abandoned, it should be me. I never had anyone around to help, never had anyone to really tell me what to do. And even when I met my sister originally, she left me without a single word. And if you only got a few scars and such from living on the streets, then you should feel good because you escaped that and found your friend. Not by arguing over things that should be left alone. Kairi, yes I know you had many issues and that they have scarred you physically and mentally, but there are some things you need to let go. How was she supposed to know what would happen? Because unless she is Arceus in human form, I seriously doubt she could have. Even Reno didn't get this sort of treatment and he was the one who left you most recently during that time." Leslie would erupt into rage, a fire in her eyes as she glared down her sister and Tsura.
"And Tsura, you aren't clear either. You abandoned a friend when you could have taken her with you. Or told her a place to go to get away from Goldenrod. Or even just said go hide in the woods." The raging tiny girl would roar out at Tsura before backing off to face the pair of them. "The both of you have made mistakes and you regret them, we get it. But neither of you can change them and neither of you can control your feelings surrounding them. But Kairi, i would think by now you would be able to get past someone abandoning you with what happened with Reno. Instead, you're giving the exact same treatment to Tsura, which really says you learned from that experience. If Reno hadn't been such a nice guy, he might have erupted as well and made you listen to him and make you forgive him because, like Tsura, he didn't have a damn clue what would happen. Now, both of you, be nice and be friends again. because losing a friendship over something as stupid as someone not being omniscient and being able to tell what all reactions will lead to is pretty damn stupid." Leslie would bellow, a heated glare and a growl escaping her lips before she went back to her usual sweet expression. "Now, how does that sound?' She would ask, her voice almost sickeningly sweet.

Both girls looked to Leslie in shock, as neither could have even fathomed that the little blonde girl would give such a tongue-lashing. Tsura went from looking shocked to looking saddened, tears filling her green eyes as she stifled a sob, whereas Kairi... Well, Kairi just looked angry, one golden eye set in a glare as she stared down her sister. The redhead said nothing, getting up and walking away. If she tried to do much else, she likely would've hurt someone, and she had done enough of that recently. Dante tried to stop Kairi, only to have Tsura grab him and shake her head. "Leave her Dante... she needs some time to think. Kairi has always had a temper, but, I've never seen it this bad before, it'd be best to let her cool off," she whispered, tears slowly rolling down her cheeks. "She'll forgive me, in time... I know she will. Please understand that, although things may have been harsh for you, they were probably about ten times worse for her. I actually had spotted her a few times before she finally left her mother. That girl... she was beaten every day, and I can see that some of the scars from those days still haven't healed. A few days before she had finally left... that's when I first spoke to her, and I cleaned up her wounds. If I hadn't, you wouldn't have your sister now. Think about that for a moment, Leslie... Had you ever been in that much pain? I don't see many scars on you, and the ones I do see are very minor, nothing like the ones that Kairi had at your age. She likely forgave Reno more quickly because of her love for him. Even before I left, I could see she had strong feelings for him, and he returned those feelings. It's easier to forgive those you truly love. It will take her a while to forgive me, but she will get around to it," her words were shaky, and there was still tears in her eyes. Tsura had never dealt well with being yelled at, especially not with the ferocity that had come from the young girl. Athena snuggled herself into her trainer's arms, hoping to get the girl to stop crying. Tsura hugged the little Cottonee, her sobs not as harsh as before as her Pokemon comforted her. Dante had put a hand on Tsura's back, moving it in a way that would hopefully help the girl calm down. He glanced at Leslie and sighed, not saying anything, though it was obvious he thought that Leslie had pushed both girls a little too far.
After Kairi had left, she wandered off to her room, closing the door and locking it before laying down on the bed. She removed her bandages and most of her clothes, staring into the mirror that was above her dresser. Scars covered her body, some were more noticeable than others, and some could barely be seen. The redhead brought one hand up to her right eye, tracing the scars that crossed over her eyelid. The girl turned away from the mirror then, slipping on an oversized t-shirt to sleep in, crawling into her bed. She had recalled Zeke, wanting to let him rest, and Renata had released herself from her pokeball. The Poison Pin Pokemon lay next to her trainer, and Kairi had one arm wrapped around her Nidorina, her face against the Pokemon's shoulder. Although she was mad, she was also sad. Sad that she had been so mean to her friend, and sad that it had taken her sister yelling at her for her to realize how stupid she was being. It didn't take long for the girl to start crying, sobs wracking her body for a while before she finally fell asleep. She wasn't planning on speaking to anyone else until after she had gotten some rest. She wasn't feeling all that great, and with some of the things that happened in her last mission, she was completely drained. The redhead hoped that both Tsura and Leslie could forgive her for her actions, though at this point... she wasn't expecting them to.

Leslie would look at Tsura and attempt to give a response, getting inky so far as opening her mouth. Why only this far? Well, she had kind of forgotten to breath during tirade against their anger. And with all the blood rush from sudden movement, Leslie would pass out on the couch, a pair of scars on her back showing up from beneath her shirt. The main difference would that they were a pair of almost angry looking burn scars that looked old but seemed like they could have happened yesterday.

Tsura's eyes widened for a moment, not having expected the burn scars on Leslie's back. One hand was brought up to her face, and she ran her fingers through her hair as she sighed. Tsura had been contemplating leaving again, as with seeing that Kairi had managed to make at least some friends, she thought the girl would be okay, but, seeing how she had been earlier, and seeing that her sister had some issues of her own, and well, Tsura had noticed Dante watching her, and although she could tell how he was, she felt like the boy was questioning himself... She needed to stay, to help. Obviously she had been brought here for a reason, and she couldn't deny that she wanted to spend more time with her friend, but, right now... She wasn't entirely certain she could help everyone. A fresh set of tears flowed down the girl's cheeks, and she clutched her head with both hands now. What could she possibly do to help these three? Would she even be able to help them at all? Dante sat himself next to Tsura, and pulled her into a hug, petting her hair in an effort to get her to stop crying. The brunette had let go of her Cottonee, and Athena floated over to Leslie. Although she felt her trainer needed comforting, the Cotton Puff Pokemon could see that the blue-haired boy was doing that, and so she instead landed next to the little blonde girl, snuggling up close to her.

The unconscious little girl would extend one of her arms to the Cottonee in reaction, cuddling it close as she whimpered slightly. In her mind, all of her yelling and gesturing had done nothing. All she had managed to do was make them storm away from each other. She knew she couldn't compare to either of them, but she hoped that maybe she had managed to do something for them.

Darts was never much one for bragging and/or grandstanding but he felt like he had his new Giratina form well in check. He hadn't snapped and sent anyone flying through a wall, he hadn't even Distortion World talked in a while. He felt a little more confident than he did before in his form, but still. The raw power overwhelmed him sometimes. As did having the jacket as an organ. But other than that, life was totally normal... He slowly walks across the main room of HQ, heading for the kitchen for his coffee.

Crystal finished making some hot chocolate, when she noticed Darts come in. "...We need to stop meeting like this." She looked around and found a poptart box and grabbed a pair out. "This'll do."
