He shut his eyes. Koffing. Please! Snap out of it! he thought, I need to you get out of the way and attack Miltank with a Smokescreen. Kilik opened his eyes sharply, "Okay then! Let's try it! Koffing, roll out of the way and snap out of it!" the Pokemon did roll and began to hover up slightly. It seemed to be fighting itself.
"Koff! Koffing! Koffing!" it barked. This was the first time Kilik saw his Pokemon look geniunely angry. Flareon looked at its friend with a concerned view. You can do this, Koffing... There was a loud farting noise as a Smokescreen covered the battlefield once more. The trainer laughed and punched the air triumphantly. He picked up Koffing's Pokeball.
"All right!" he smiled, "Return, Koffing!" a red beam shot from the ball and took Koffing in. The boy looked to his Flareon, "Let's finish this! Flareon! Run in there with an Ember attack!" Flareon jumped from his shoulder and began to fire red orbs from its mouth in all directions. The boy looked at Whitney and smirked.

"Ew, that's disgusting!" Whitney said. She looked to her Pokemon, who was having difficulty seeing due to the Smokescreen. "Miltank!" she called, "I know you can't do much right now, so use a Defense Curl!" Her Pokemon made a moo in confirmation, and curled up into a ball. It was struck by several of the Embers, and Whitney bit her bottom lip. I can do this, she thought.
No you can't, Nina thought, sending that message to be heard in Whitney's head.

Kilik ran his thumb over his nose and laughed. "You rock..." he gave his Flareon a thumbs up, "and you rule!" He pointed at the Miltank as the Smokescreen began to disperse, "Flareon! Let's end this foolish match!" the left half of his face became covered by his black hair, "Give that Miltank a barrage of Ember! And don't stop..." he whispered, "until Whitney calls it back!" he somewhat yelled out this part.
Flareon jumped into the air and began to attack with many Embers that shot from its body like machinegun fire. "Flare Flare Flare Flare!" it barked over and over as the embers continued to barrage Miltank.
"It's game over, Whitney! Hand over that badge!" Kilik smirked.

Whitney, Nina, and Sabrina were all very quiet for a moment, especially the psychics. "Miltank," Whitney said, "there's no way that you can dodge all of them. Use Rollout to maneuver around all the blasts that you can, and try to hit that Flareon!" Her Pokemon did as it was told, and started to roll around, mainly in a circle for a moment, before making its way toward Flareon.

He growled as he watched the Miltank roll about the battlefield. "Flareon...take the damage," Kilik whispered. Flareon looked at its owner oddly, "Listen. You can take it. Take two hits and then proceed with another barrage of Embers. That Miltank can't take much more!" Flareon nodded and stood its ground. The rolling Pokemon collided with the other, sending it sliding along the field. It regained its composure only to be knocked down once more.
"Flare...on..." it said weakly. It opened its mouth and prepared itself.
"When that Miltank is right in front of you..." Kilik whispered, "get ready." The Miltank rolled closer, "get set..." Flareon's mouth began to glow red hot, "FIRE!!!" a large group of fireballs were sent at the Miltank. The Fire Pokemon jumped back as the Normal-type continued rolling. Flareon jumped back to keep avoiding the Miltank and kept firing to slow it down and weaken it. Destroy that Miltank... Kilik thought.

((I know what you mean. There is only so much they can catch up on and such...))
Dante brightened up a bit at her question. "Actually while I was in a pokemon center waiting for my pokemon to be healed I saw Articuno fly outside of the window." He paused for a minute a slight frown on his face. "It had something weird attached to its leg. But other then that sighting I haven't been able to do much research on them."

"Oh no!" Whitney cried out. "Miltank! Get out of the way, now!" The Miltank, however, thought that it could continue dodging the fireballs and defeat the Flareon. "MILTANK!" Whitney cried strenly. "Get out of the way! Use Milk Drink!" Still, the Pokemon did not listen. Whitney could only stare in utter disbelief.
After being struck by at least a dozen and a half more Ember attacks, Miltank's rolling came to an end. "Miltank..." Whitney said in a soft tone of voice, before recalling her Pokemon. "I admit defeat," she said, in the same tone of voice. "You have won the battle. What is your name?" She asked Kilik, before walking towards him. Nina immediately got up and rushed over to him, and Sabrina very slowly followed.

Flareon began to breathe heavily before smiling at its trainer. It collapsed at the moment Whitney admitted her defeat. Kilik recalled his Pokemon and looked at the Gym Leader. He gave her a smirk, "The name is Kilik. If you ever want a rematch, let me know." The boy looked at Nina and Sabrina. "We'll leave once I get my badge," he held out somewhat of a demanding hand to Whitney.

The helicopter hovered high above the Jhoto region. Upon checking his GPS systems and his PokeNav many times, Giovanni closed in on the location of his prey. "Land outside the city..." he looked at the pilot. Two other copters were flying next to his, both carrying three of his Team Rocket cronies. The Team Rocket leader looked at the pilot as he pushed downward onto the steering piece. It landed softly outside of Goldenrod City and the man stepped out. The other two copters landed not too far off, the lackies running to protect their leader.
"When they come this way," Giovanni growled, "Get them..."

Whitney smiled a little bit. "Yes. Your badge." She reached into her right front pocket. "As a Gym Leader of the Johto region, Goldenrod City branch," she began, "I do hereby present you with the Plainbadge. She pulled out a small badge that was exactly as its name described it-- plain. "I also present you with your prize money of $4,000. Furthermore, you have earned TM 45: Attract." She gave those items to Kilik, who put them away. "That TM is just perfect for a cutie like me!" she said, with a giggle. "And for a cutie like you." Wearing a grin, and looking off to the side for less than a second, she then moved closer to Kilik... and kissed him.
Nina's mouth fell as far as her jawbone would allow. "YOU HARLOT!" she said, vey loudly. "Don't you touch him!" A second later, Nina pulled her fist back, and slammed it into Whitney's cheek, knocking her off to the side. Infuriated, Nina grabbed Kilik's hand with her own, and continued yelling. "You can tease me as much as you want, and you can insult me however you wish, but when you DARE invade my friend's personal space like that is when you really piss me off!"
Whitney's jaw was hanging open too, and one hand held her cheek, where she had been punched. "How dare you!" she yelled. "Striking a Gym Leader is a punishable offense! I should have you thrown into prison!"
"But you won't," Sabrina said, approaching her. "Because if you do that, you will have me to deal with. You know, the psychopath who imprisons people into her little doll house?" Sabrina was glaring very darkly at the immature Gym Leader. "If you so much as come within fifty feet of my sister or her friend, I will see to it you are eternally imprisoned." She turned to her sister. "Come on, you two. We're leaving. Now."

Kilik kept his hold on Nina's hand as they left the Gym. The boy placed the TM into his pocket with his free hand. When the door to the Gym shut behind them, he looked down at his hand and let go of Nina. "So, where to now?" he asked. The boy smirked, "I was thinking of heading to Azelea to battle against Bugsy and get myself a Hive Badge," Kilik told them. "Care to join me Nina?" he smiled at her.
"And your sister is welcome to come with us."

Nina smiled. "Sure, I wouldn't mind going with you," she said. She looked to Sabrina. "Did you want to come with us?" she asked.
"I would, actually like to go with you," Sabrina said. "However, I am needed elsewhere. It has recently come to my attention that Kasiya has obtained a badge herself-- hers was from Erika. This means that she will be facing Koga next, and then... she will have to fight me."
Nina was very quiet. "S...so, that means you're going home?"
Sabrina nodded. "Yes, Nina. But it will only be for a short while. I will find you again after Kasiya defeats me. If that is tomorrow, then so be it. If it isn't for a week or month..."
Nina nodded a little bit. "Alright. I'll miss you." She gave her sister a great hug.
Sabrina kissed her sister on the cheek, and said, "I'll miss you too." She let Nina go, and turned to Kilik. "Now as for you," she said, "I still don't trust you a hundred percent. Don't you dare let one thing happen to Nina in my absence, or I'll do to you what I threatened to do to Whitney. Am I understood?"

He bowed to the Gym Leader. "You have my word, Sabrina. Nothing will happen to Nina while she's with me." Kilik took a step toward the Gym Leader and whispered into her ear, "I would rather die." The boy began to walk toward the south exit of Goldenrod City. A chill ran down his spine. He looked over his shoulder, "Coming Nina?"

Nina smiled as she looked toward Kilik, who had begun to walk toward the gate. She then looked back to Sabrina. "I told you, he's completely changed. There's nothing to worry about."
Sabrina looked toward Kilik too, then to Nina. "I... I'm starting to believe you," she commented. "He does seem like a very nice boy." She was quiet for a moment, but eventually she said, "So... I should be going. The train will be leaving very soon."
Nina nodded slightly. "I understand. You have to do what you have to do." She too was quiet, but then said, "Do you remember when we talked for the first time? You were all dressed up like that guard, and you got so annoyed at me becuase I kept bothering you for things, like asking you if I could get through Saffron, and if Kasiya could come through."
Sabrina chuckled. "Hah, yes I do. I only seemed like I was annoyed by you so that you wouldn't suspect it was me. I was waiting for the right moment to reveal my identity to you... It's just too bad that moment was when you were trying to stop Kilik." A faint train whistle could be heard, signaling that it was pulling into the station.
"That's you," Nina said. She gave her sister another hug, and after a few moments, let go. "Could you do one favor for me?" Nina asked. Sabrina nodded, and asked what it was.
"...Could you let Mom and Dad out? I'd like to meet them someday."
Sabrina was quiet. "Yes. I will." She smiled at her sister. "I'll be seeing you." With a nod, she departed.
Nina said the same, and then ran toward Kilik.

Kilik looked over his shoulder and waited for Nina. When she approached him, the boy began to walk toward the exit. "She seemed nice," he said, "much nicer than what the books I've read say." He shrugged his shoulders.
"There he is..." Giovanni whispered, "I can see him just on the horizon." The head of the Rockets began to move foreward, meeting the boy at a closer distance.
The boy stopped in his tracks, looking ahead and seeing the orange suit in front of him. Chills ran through out his body. "Giovanni..." he whispered, "What...do you want?"
"What do I want...?" he repeated, "I want your head on a platter!" He smiled darkly, "But...that wouldn't be so polite to do in front of your pretty lady friend here." Giovanni lifted a hand and snapped his fingers. In the blink of an eye, two Rockets had seized both trainers. "Just hold the girl and make sure she doesn't get in the way...Kilik is the one I want."
Kilik had time to blink before he felt the wind knocked out of him by the knee of one of the Rockets holding him. Punches were being sent into his rib cage and jaw. "Leave..." he groaned, "Nina out of this."
"I won't hurt her..." the man said, taking a step to Kilik. He grabbed the boy's hair and lifted him out of the grasp of the two Rockets, "Now listen to me!" he spat. Kilik's screams echoed out in his ears, "You betrayed me, you stupid child!" he tossed the boy into the side of one of the grounded helicopters. There was a loud metal clang.
He fell to the ground with a loud thud. Dirt was getting into the cuts on his face and blood started dripping from his nose. The boy began to stand up, but was knocked back down by a kick from one of the Rockets. It started to hurt to breathe.
Giovanni approached the boy, lifted him up by the collar. "Remember this?" he asked, holding up the same gun that had killed the Silph Co. President. The boy shook his head 'no'. The Rocket Leader smacked the boy in the face with the butt of the weapon. "There are two bullets in here. One for you!!" he barked, throwing Kilik into the other copter. When the boy had started to stand, a gunshot rang out. The bullet fired clear through his right shoulder. When he fell to the ground, yelling in pain, Giovanni stood over him. He looked at his blood ridden face, "The other...for your little friend." He forced the boy up and placed the gun into his hand, "Shoot her...now."
"Nina..." Kilik whispered. His hands were shaking wildly and sweat dripped down his brow. Blood was covering his face and running down his shoulder. Coldness was sweeping him. There was a gunshot and one of the Rockets holding Nina was down on the ground, a bullet wound to the head, "GET OUT OF HERE!" he yelled.
"You foolish boy!" Giovanni growled, grabbing Kilik's face once more and throwing him inside the copter. "Now you'll face the true wrath of Team Rocket...first hand!" The other Rockets hopped into the spare two copters and the three machines flew away, leaving Nina by herself in the South Exit of Goldenrod City.
