The League
Three full weeks went by since Cassidy received her badge. She took that time to extensively train each of her pokémon and take another break from her usual lifestyle. Today was when Cassidy would finally travel to the Pokémon League and try her team...
Gray Weather
Ruki lifted his head to a dark room. He didn't recognize his surroundings at first-- until he remembered he fell asleep on the couch earlier. How late at night was it? Ruki, slowly and as silently as he could, slid off the couch as to not wake Skye's...
To Be Alone
Skye was lying in bed that evening, her door closed. Ruki was in the kitchen with her mother while supper was being prepared, so Skye was using the time to talk to Aaron. "You two do anything interesting since we left?" she asked. "Not much, but we...
All Eight
Wulfric's avalugg slammed into Fenny with all of its weight, which created an immense amount of impact. No amount of bracing for an attack that powerful could have saved Fenny. He was knocked back many feet across the field's icy surface and lay still...
Smooth Sailing
Skye greeted her parents once she and Ruki got home after an hour-long cruise back to Hau'oli, told them how their day went-- minus her and Aaron's makeout session, and called Aaron afterward to let him know she and Ruki were home before getting ready...
Ace & Mille
A lucario sat on his bed that late afternoon. The mattress was stiff, but he was used to it. Recruited pokémon that were ranked one through three didn't get as good of rooms as humans had. The pokémons' were located by the east end of the lobby on...
Days Before
Ayame stood in front of her mirror while running a brush down her hair at 9 a.m. She couldn't keep her mind off of Friday. She'd be inducted by her father, its founder, into Unovanish in three days once she turned eighteen. It's a company that keeps...
To Kanto
Julie opened her eyes to daylight shining through her window. Her right arm still hugged Midnight's body. He was asleep, and he looked adorable. "I can't believe I have you..." she whispered, grinning while tracing her fingers over his right ear, and...
First Night
Today was it, the last Friday Julie would ever be at this school again. The prior week was one of realization, that she was going to move on with her life and that she had to find out what to do with it. Julie wasn't much of a tough trainer type. She...
Pushing Through
There were two weeks left until graduation day. Time flew. Tomorrow was Monday, and the last two months felt like a breeze. Julie and Alyssa had managed to stay relatively close throughout that time, especially after the Midnight incident. Julie had...
The Resolution
"I'm so anxious, Alyssa. What am I supposed to say once I'm in there?" "Whatever you feel is right. I can't help you much with that part, but keep my advice in mind, please." Alyssa gripped Julie's shoulders and stared into her eyes to ensure she was...
Her Only Chance
"Tomorrow is Friday, and I'm nervous all over again," Julie told Alyssa while they sat on Julie's bed after school. They were mostly talking but getting homework done as well. "You have nothing to worry about. It'll be a simple discussion. Go along...
