@silver_winged 😊Shiruko let out an uncaring sigh as he walk to where he pointed to. Meema followed him at his feet, as Shiruko had other things on his mind then going to a boring old Pokefarm.

@taffy789"By poor I mean bad," Jack replied, an amused smile tugging at his lips. "Bad like your attitude. Move it over, Notch-Ear, or this is gonna' be a real long day for you." Though his smile remained, his eyes glinted with an unspoken challenge: defy me one more time. Go on, do it. The insistence faded, however, as the girl on the bus once again occupied his attention.@smiliesWith a sigh, he ushered the crowd to move apart. In long, easygoing strides, he approached the bus and climbed the first step, gazing at the girl with the kindest expression he could muster. "Come on, Sweetheart," he beckoned, gesturing now for her to stand up. "Everything's gonna' be fine. What's your name?"

Allie flinched at the accent and kept her eyes fixed to her shoes, which had neon green laces. She always changed the color of her laces once a week. She doubted you could buy neon laces out here. "It's Allie," she whispered, hunching her shoulders inwards slightly and hugging herself. @silver_winged X3
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 12:34 AM
A challenge, hmm? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. "NOTCH EAR?" A lot of people laughed this time. "That's not even me, that's my Pokemon. Which reminds me..." Nick let out a whistle, and motioned towards Jack. Strike looked up from his looting, and notice Nicolas' jesters, and thought he was pointing at Allie. Neverless, Strike threw himself at Allie in a powerful Volt Tackle, aiming for her gut. @smilies @silver_winged

Allie screamed and dove down out of the way, finishing in earthquake-position under the seat, curled up smaller than ever.

@smilies @taffy789 @sakura2596Suppressing a sigh, Jack glanced back down at his crinkled paper, searching for an Allie. She was listed under Pokemon, registered with a Cleffa. Checking her off, he lifted a foot, now balancing one-footed on the first step. He was in a position to either advance further and help her off the bus or step aside and allow her to disembark on her own. "Alright, Allie," he replied, trying to reestablish eye contact as she avoided his gaze. "We've got a nice, easy day today, and you're gonna' be real comfortable, I promise. Just come on down and join us.Pointedly ignoring the rude boy, he stepped down onto the ground, allowing the girl some room. Bullseye noticed the Pichu before Jack did. With a whinny, she sprinted forward into the crowd, startling a good number of people and almost trambling the Zorua boy. Alerted by the screams, Jack whirled to find his Ponyta charging forward, head tucked in order to intercept the Pichu with a headbutt.

As everyone was trying to make their way out of the bus, a Pikachu had jumped outside. It wasn't long before the poor thing had been run over by them. The poor Pikachu had let out a pitiful cry. One girl in the back of the bus all alone was drawing quietly in her sketchbook, unaware that her Pikachu ran off. At least she was until she heard the faint sound of it. She then punched the back door open and ran towards the cry. Once she arrived, she found him on the floor being attacked by two mean men. "What are you doing to Pikau!?" she growled. "Pikau, what kind of name is that?" they taunted. Before they knew it, the guy was beaten up by her. As for the other boy... He fled. Meanwhile a Flygon had flown above." Hey, I spotted her! I found Sarah!" the boy on it's back yelled happily. "Wait..." he murmured. " Flygon, quick! Go land over there!" It landed rather gracefully next to the girl he called Sarah. Her heartless gaze from earlier had turned to a bright smile as she ran and hugged the man before her. At least until she showed him Pikau. " Flare! Look at what they've done to poor Pikau!" she cried sadly. Flare then took out a revive and sprayed Pikau with it. The Pikachu then shooked its head and jumped to her." Pika!(Sarah, that guy over there wants us to go into a group. Everyone else is going!)" What he said was true. Sarah and Pikau were one of the only students not in a group. " This is no good, I don't even know what the groups are for!" she whined.
sakura2596 • 22 February 2012 at 12:51 AM
Shiruko jumped out of the way, along with Meema dashing away from the Ponyta back to Shiruko. Meema angerly snapped at the Ponyta a small wail.@silver_winged

Knowing it was unaviodable, and not wanting to make a fuss, Allie slowly extracted herself from the floor which she had sunk into and trailed after Jack like a lost kitten. However, on sight of the Ponyta, she gave a small shriek and hid behind the bus....This charrie sets a whole new meaning to the word, timid ><
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 12:57 AM
By this time, Pichu had been knocked off course, and hit the bus, leaving a small dent in the side of it. Nicolas facepalmed. Sure, a FEW of his fellow delinquents were laughing, but only the cruel ones. And that's because they just were jerks. Nick needed them to think HE was a jerk, or his chances of getting beat up on the first day? Very likely. Strike should've struck Jack, then, Nick would at least been respected among the bad kids. Sighing, Nick trudged over, and grabbed the knocked out Pichu from the ground roughly by the tail, and started to shake him up and down roughly to wake him up. Strike DID recover, muttering a few cuss words inPokelanguage. (Or at least Nick thought they were cuss words. strike always said the sane phrase when something bad happens. )

Seeing as nobody is ever going to help her, Dreamer headed towards the small thicket of trees nearby. Staring out into the woods, she waited quietly until a small group of Pokemon popped out. It was a team consisting of a Servine, Eevee, Quilava, and a shaymin. Although it is a rare sight to see these Pokemon, the truth was that they've been following her for quite awhile now. As she took out her sketchbook and started drawing them, she wondered to herself. Why? Why were they so willing to be around her when people would stay far from her? Sarah sighed after finishing her drawing while she was nowhere near a conclusion. After putting away her book, she sat by a nearby tree and fed them poffins. The lone girl along with Pikau soon dozed off as well as the Pokemon who had stayed by her side.

The Ponyta flicked her flaming tail in annoyance at the Zorua. After all, it'd probably hurt it more than it'd hurt her.On one note, it seemed that the Deerling girl had finally chosen to pry herself from the bus seat and venture into the world beyond.On a more pressing note, Pichu boy had almost caused a serious accident. And there was very little withholding the righteous anger of Jack Saxon. "You," he growled, covering the distance between them in a few curt strides. The young ranch hand looked ready to all but beat him when, from the house, another man emerged.He was tall as well, with salt and pepper hair and an overall pleasant appearance. The look on his face, however, was currently one of disdain. "Boy," he ordered, staring down directly at Nicolas. The gaze of the old man was withering. "I'm gonna' need ya' to hand o'er thet Pichu. Ye'll get it beck when we see fit."Pushed immediately into the background by the arrival of his father, Jack scowled. It was only when he remembered the timid girl that he wiped the expression from his face, achieving neutrality with some effort. He doubted it would bend any further. Slowly, trying desperately not to startle the girl, he followed her to the back of the bus. "Everything's fine," he assured her, hands spread flat in a defensive gesture. -c

Clicking his tongue, he summoned Bullseye to his side, gently taking her by the reins. "This is my Ponyta, Bullseye. She's a real sweetie--she helped you out right there, even. S'all right." Glancing away, he noticed Flare off a short ways, with another one of the students. "Can you get her over here?" he called out, trying not to raise his voice too much. Goodness knows what else would spook the girl he was trying to calm down.@sakura2596 @starheartowo @taffy789 @smilies
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 1:24 AM
"Beck?" Nick pretended to pretend to be confused, cocking his head to one side like a confused Growlithe. "I can get Beck? Who's Beck?" He wasn't intimidated by the older man at all. Six. Six different places he'd been sent to before this one. SIX. This was lucky number seven. Strike pouted, and clung onto Nick's wrists and pulled himself up, scurrying up to his usual place on his shoulder, and started to clean his cheeks, trying to look cute. Strike was REALLY thinking, on the other hand, when it would be a good time to shock the old man, and see if he could do a dance. Nick could see straight though Strike's actions. He almost laughed, but dared not to. U Like he would EVER willingly hand Strike over. Techically, the Pichu had followed him from the very first camp he had been in, were they gave the kids Eggs to hatch and raise to teach them responsibility. Nick had barely managed not to break the egg before had hatched, then taught the Pichu how to win at Poker straight afterwords. After that, the Pichu had followed him where he went, like a much smaller, cuter, and a bit more mischievous shadow. Like Nick had mentioned before, he could 't ever be more proud.

Unfortunately, the young dreamers were awakened by the horrible smell of smoke. "Shay!( I'm on fire you stupid Quilava! What are you even dreaming of to create a flame that big?" The shaymin cried. "Uuahhh!" Sarah screamed at the top of her lungs, drawing attention to herself. She then looked up to the sky and called out to the birds." Is there anyone that could use a water ty-" The yelling of the Servine and Eevee had cut her off.Things were looking grim until Flare came by with Flygon. "Let's go! Waterfall!" He yelled. The flames were soon doused by Flygon's attack, and the Quilava fainted too. "Sarah! You ought a be more careful next time!" he said firmly. She looked up at him with large, frightened eyes. "Y-yes sir..." He smiled " It's good to learn from mistakes, but it's better not to make any! Now let's go back." Sarah then smiled back, said farewell to the Pokemon, and followed Flare. Little did she know that the shaymin had followed her...

Mr. Saxon chuckled, his demeanor lightening. "Ah ken see why Jacky here had 'is feathers all ruffled." He then saw fit to chuckle a bit more. From behind the bus, Jack's face paled; the nickname was tolerable if he himself introduced it, but now all those troublemakers would never let him live it down. "Dad," he begged internally, clenching his teeth. "Right," the older man added, clearing his throat. Before Nicolas would have had time to react, he plucked the Pichu from his shoulder. He held the little Pokemon bare-handed; years of farm work had thickly callused his broad hands, and he'd been shocked by a Mareep or Flaaffy enough times to make the Pichu's shock seem like a pleasant tingle. "You," he said, grinning widely and enunciating clearly, "will spend the rest 'a the day muckin' out the Spoink pen. Is there anybody else who'd lahk to say a word 'fore we begin?"
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 1:49 AM
"Ah, waist deep in muck and Pokemon pellets I presume?" Nick did a mock bow. "Sounds wonderful, me Lady. But aren't you sure that Jacky doesn't care to be shoveling the manure?" Strike didn't struggle in the Old Man's hands. Mostly because in Strike's place was a Substitute, while the real Strike had managed to launch himself into a near by tree last minute. (They can learn Subtitute via TM. 😊 )
starheartowo • 22 February 2012 at 2:03 AM
Sarah paused and looked up the nearby tree where Strike had landed. "Is something the matter Sarah?" Flare asked. She narrowed her eyes at the tree until she found the shape of a Pichu. " That Pichu... Wasn't his owner some guy named Nick?" she thought to herself. She may not be very talkative, but that fact allowed her to strengthen her listening skills and get better at gathering info about the people around her. "Nothing. It's nothing important." she told her brother before they continued walking along.
smilies • 22 February 2012 at 2:16 AM
Allie caught sight of the old man and inhaled a deep, calming breath. She could take this, she could take it, she told herself. Be strong. People have lived with old people before: wrinkles aren't contagious. I think.She glanced at Bullseye and suddenly found herself in a much pleasanter place. Allie had never seen a Ponyta, and very few even near that size before, except for a Swampert, and an Onyx. But she took an instant liking to the horse. Hesitantly, she reached out to stroke her.
silver_winged • 22 February 2012 at 2:51 PM
@taffy789"Jacky's got real work t'do, son," the old man replied, the amused smile still on his face. After a moment, he glanced down at the motionless figure in his hand and sighed. Something about the lack of surprise indicated that this had happened before, perhaps more than once. "Dollie," he sang, tossing the doll to the ground. "Rats, Dollie! Rats!" "Prrreow," Dollie hummed from a nearby tree, flicking her tail lazily. She'd appeared from seemingly out of nowhere, like a ghost. Dollie was a Persian--an excellent climber, a born hunter, silent as the dead when she needed to be. Trapped under her left paw was the flat tail of a certain naughty Pichu.The old man chuckled again, this time shaking his head. "That's mah girl. Y'stay raght there, dun't let it outta' yer saght." The Persian stretched and yawned lazily, casually baring her fangs."Shh," Jack murmured to both the Ponyta and the girl, mentally willing everything to stay under control. So far, the two of them seemed to be getting along. That was a start. "She won't burn nobody unless you spook her. See?" He waved his bare hand through the flames at the Ponyta's neck before patting her gently. "Now, we gotta' get these groups sorted out . . . FLARE!" he declared again, this time having to shout. "I SAID GET OVER HERE! Never listens, that one."@smilies @taffy789 @starheartowo
starheartowo • 22 February 2012 at 4:58 PM
"Huh? Oh, it's you Jack. I'll be there right away sir!" Flare replied. Sarah looked back at her brother and tilted her head. "Who's Jack" She asked. "Well, Jack is...A ditto in disguise!" He laughed. However, he didn't quite get the reaction he expected. Sarah walked towards her brother and stared at his Flygon rather curiously. "Is he telling the truth Draco?(Her nickname for the flygon)" The flygon looked shocked that she would ask him about that. Then, he saw Flare smile slyly at him. That wasn't one of his happy-go-lucky smiles. That was his you-better-do-something-or-else smiles. "F-Fly...(W...well, I have seen him transform into a ditto sometimes...)" Draco stammered. "Thanks Draco!" she replied. As she ran off with Pikau by her side, Flare laughed. "I see she's still naive as she was when she first ran into me! I wonder how long it'll be until she could tell the truth from a lie... Anyways, lets go Flygon! We don't wanna be left behind now do we?" Flare jumped onto his friend's back and flew over Sarah to his Boss. "Flare reporting for duty!" He yelled.
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 5:57 PM
"Hey!" Nick protested, and tried to remove the paw off of Strike. "What gives you any right to take Strike? What, is this a Team Rocket boot camp or something?" Strike was buzzing angerily with electricty, and trying to nip at the great paw that was on top of him. As soon as he felt the grip on himself loosen, he bared his small, rodent teeth and bit the nearest thing to him, which was Nick's hand. "Argh!" Nicolas pulled his hand back in suprise, and started to rub the small, bleeding wound on his jeans. It didn't bother him that much, because he was used to getting bite by Strike, but still... "Anyway, Strike was still following orders, right? That means i'm not a poor trainer. And i'm not a bad guy either, since don't run around detaining other people's Pokemon. So I can leave. And i'm taking my Pichu with me." Nick folded his arms across his chest, now sitting stubornly on the ground near the Persian and the trapped rodent. 'Wow, what an unmanly setence that was...' he thought for a second, blinking. (OCC: "And i'm taking my Pichu with me." 😃 That'll be my new status. X3 )
silver_winged • 22 February 2012 at 6:13 PM
@starheartowo @taffy789 X3Jack sighed with relief as Flare made his way over. "I need you to fetch me a shovel," he said, indicating the nearest storage closet. "Are all the cabins ready for the kids to move in?" As he awaited an answer, Jack pulled the slip of paper out again, scanning for a girl with a Pikachu. "Sarah?" he asked, trying to confirm her name. "You're over there, with those kids. I need y'all to stay in your groups!" he finished, addressing the crowd as a whole again. Frustrated, he motioned for the girl to follow and began clearing a divide between the two groups of children. Bullseye gave a low snort, sensing her master's distress."Y'traid t'atteck another kid," Mr. Saxon explained in a neutral tone. "If y'read yer papers, y'ed see thet it's against th'rules, and we ken keep yer Pokemon until y'leave." The Persian stared down at the yellow rodent with disinterest, the thick pads of her paws preventing its electric shocks from doing too much harm. When Nick's hand reached too close to her paw, she bared part of her deadly fangs in a silent warning. (She wasn't actually allowed to bite him, but he didn't have to know that.)
taffy789 • 22 February 2012 at 6:21 PM
"...Fine." Nick scooted away from the creepy Persian and his squashed friend. "Okay, okay, you win. I don't know why you'd actually want to KEEP Strike, but whatever... Just so we're clear..." Nick turned to all the other students, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "THE FOOD HERE IS MADE FROM YOUR KIDNAPPED POKEMON!!!" Then he started to walk away, towards the ranch, rather smugly.
starheartowo • 22 February 2012 at 6:30 PM
"Cabins all ready sir. Also, here's your shovel." Soon after he finished talking, Gwenevere jumped out of the ground with a silver shovel in her mouth. "Vul!" she cried contently towards Sarah. " It's good to see you too Gwenevere." Sarah replied as she followed Jack. She then looked up at Bullseye and smiled happily. "Hi there Ponyta! My name's Sarah! Would you care to tell me your name?"
smilies • 22 February 2012 at 8:06 PM
"THE FOOD HERE IS MADE FROM YOUR KIDNAPPED POKEMON!!!" Someone yelled.Allie squeaked and clutched her pokeball attached to her belt. That wasn't true...! Her parents would never have sent her to a place like that, right?!Then again, her parents had exiled her to the middle of nowhere, could it get it any worse?!Yes. Yes it could, apparently.
