Emilio had gotten really energetic and he hadn't had the patience to argue with Aglaia long, she was beginning to feel really worn down by him by now. She had never thought much about being a mother, her main goal had always been getting a shop of her own but she had kind of expected that she would find a man and probably get kids like the rest of her family had. Now though, she was rethinking that idea. The weather was turning really nice, and the sun shone from a clear sky with everything shining from the humidity of the melting snow, while frail looking flowers poked their heads out of the ground. Aglaia would really have enjoyed it if Emilio hadn't raced around and continuingly shouted to her to point out obvious things he found, like a puddle a bit bigger than the rest, or that white flower in the ground, or that pile of snow hiding in the shadow of a tree. His rattata was calm and the poochyena seemed to enjoy the company of the rat. They reached the road and Emilio momentarily looked disappointed and Aglaia feared for a moment that he was going to pull some sort of stunt to drag this trip out.
A couple of kids appeared playingly, which had to mean they were close to the town. "That's not very nice of her, you shouldn't throw rocks," Emilio told Aglaia who just gave him a grunt of agreement. Then the girl missed the boy, again, but hit a hoppip hidden in the grass. Emilio gasped and Aglaia frowned as the pokemon straight up attacked the kids who started wailing. "That's not ok! Rattata! Keep that hoppip away!" Emilio exclaimed and then ran towards the younger kids, he was a couple if years older at most. He stood before them with his hands on his hips and raised a finger at them. "That was not nice! You shouldn't throw rocks and hurt pokemon! They are your friend and you should be nice to them!" He scolded them loudly.
Aglaia gasped horrified and shouted to Emilio to come back as he ran off but of course he didn't listen. The rat had tried to do as ordered, but it was clear it couldn't do much with it flying around over its head. Poochyena had retreated as far back as it could. The female trainer rummaged through her pokeballs horrified, now she suddenly didn't have one kid but three to protect. She dropped a couple of the pokeballs and Sinclair appeared from one them, while an unknown surskit popped out from the other. Aglaia was at lost for words but the pokemon were quick to pick up on what was happening. Sinclair floated over but Blue was faster and shot a green beam at the hoppip, hopefully that would be enough to chase it away.

The two childrenvlooked up at the older boy through tear-stained faces. Couldn't he see that they had been hurt? The Hoppip got in the way of their playing after all, they weren't trying tovaim for the wild Pokemon. "We didn't mean to hit it!" The small girl cried, tears running down the sides of her face. "Sides, we was jus paying wid each oder!" The small boy pouted, crossing his arms over his chest. He didn't tell that Hoppip to get in the way. And he didn't tell it to attack, either. "Aren't Pokemon only apposed to follow your...uhh...orders!" He asked, snapping his fingers as he tried to remember the last word. Hoppip turned angrily to the two Pokemon who jumped into the midst of the fray. Why were they defending these evil terrors?! Couldn't they see with their own eyes that it had just been attacked?! "I'm only defending myself!" The pink cottonweed insisted while spinning its serrated leaves wildly on the top of its head. A powerful gust of wind sparkling with strange fairy-like properties kicked up across the field and pummuled Surskit in the side, who easily withstood the worst of the assault. "You don't have to be big bullies too, ya know!" It huffed angrily. When Blue Cheese fired her powerful blast of energy, Hoppip screamed in terror. It was an impossibly strong attack that knocked it clear out of the air. The small pink puff fell on the ground and rolled through the tall green blades of grass, trying to gather itself. "This is a dangerous spot full of mean people and bully Pokemon! I'm going to go warn my whole family about all of you!" It insisted angrily, before floating away on a gentle breeze. The whole time as it floated away it stuck its tongue out at Blue specifically. Blue Cheese gained +0 levels. 10 levels higher than Surskit.Sinclair gained 1 level. Sinclair increased to Level 18!Sytten gained 1 level. Sytten increased to Level 11!

Sinclair didn't react, it hadn't reached the hoppip yet and therefore couldn't do what he always tried to do: showing them their reflections in his shiny surface (except it wasn't shiny anymore). Blue on the other hand flinched and shot a glance at the small kids, "really? But they are just kids.." she said unsure and ducked her head when it called her bully, "I.. I didn't meant to.." she said feebly but then the kids started to cry and she straightened. "They are just kids! They can't defend themselves," she said with resolve and then added "if they have done something wrong, we will punish them, don't worry. Now be gone."It didn't sound like the hoppip agreed with her words, it certainly didn't change it's point of view when she had scared it off. She felt a pang of discomfort, but pushed it away as she listened to what the kids were saying. Emilio still stood with his hands on his hips, "well, don't throw rocks!" He argued but sounded a lot more uncertain, "you could hit others and that's not nice!" He down on them as he puffed himself up. He completely deflated when he was accused of not being able to control his pokemon. "They do! They do all I say!" He half shouted and Aglaia put a calming hand on his shoulder. "Pokemon can think for themselves, we work together with them, not giving orders. They are not machines," Aglaia explained and Emilio added loudly, "Yeah! We're friends and help each other!""You need to be careful, rocks hurts!" She said and Emilio agreed wholeheartedly and loudly. "What are you two doing out here all alone?" She then added, where they closer to Azalea than she had thought?

One of the children looked up at Emilion, puzzled. "So I can't throw rocks, but my daddy's Geodude can? Not! Fair!" The kid folded its arms and made an angry face. "Yeah! My mommy's Spinarak likes to use String Shot when the mean Poochyena gets close to me!" The other child agreed the Aglaia. "That's not thinking for themselves, that sounds like just instincts!" Emilio voiced his disagreement. Their discussion attracted another Pokemon, as the grass shuffled and echoed, a small Pokemon perhaps, who wasn't known for their speed based on their walking pace. A few moments later, a lone Jigglypuff waddled up close and began squeaking happily. "OH MY LUGIA! I am going to be in the 435th annual Jigglypuff Sing Off Competition! Can't you believe it? DO you want to hear me singing 'Lonely Liepard'? It goes like this."-- It paused and picked up a verse from the middle or beginning or somewhere in the song. "Why did you leave me? I thought we're meant to be."

"Yes! No! .. I mean.." Emilio stammered in a failed attempt to answer the kids question. "Life's not fair," Aglaia said tiredly, "if you throw rock at a pokemon they will attack you. Don't throw rocks when you can't protect yourself." Hopefully that wouldn't get them to just find someone to protect them and then really start throwing rocks around. If so that would have to be the parents responsibility, speaking of parents. "Where are your parents? What are you doing out here?" she asked again, hoping she didn't have to act like babysitters for more kids. Aglaia ignored Emilio's skeptical comment, typical that the kid had to be opposite to her right after he had agreed eagerly with her.
The young woman didn't hear the rustling in the grass of the approaching pokemon, Emilio's poochyena did and snarled warningly which did get the attention of the other pokemon, but not the humans. Jigglypuff did get Aglaia's full attention when it began to sing. "Oh no! I'm not going to get put to sleep now!" She gasped and Emilio looked confused at her, "why would you sleep now?" He asked. Aglaia didn't answer but instead quickly thought through the pokemon she had on her and let out a wimpod. "Mistrun, make sure it doesn't starts to sing! Sinclair and.. you there," she pointed at Blue, "keep the children away from it."
"Why?!" Emilio demanded to know in a loud voice, "Because you'll fall asleep if it starts singing!" Aglaia snapped and tried to herd them further away from the jigglypuff.
Mistrun eagerly scurried over to the pink singer and waved her claws in the air as a greeting. "Hiiiii! That sounds awesome! Congratulations!" She greeted cheerfully, "how did you get it? And yes I believe you! what is a lugia? Is it a famous jigglypuff singer like you?" As jigglypuff offered to sing Mistrun too paused and then waved her shiny metal like claws in the air, "wait wait wait! Stop! My human asked for you not to sing! I.." she explained and then had to think of why Aglaia would have wanted it to stop, "I think it's because she wants you to protect your voice until the competition! You should do good and not wear it out, right?" She said cheerfully, yes that had to be the reason.

The two children, still bewildered by the sudden appearance of the Jigglypuff and Aglaia's frantic scrambling to silence it, exchanged confused glances and forgot completely about Aglaia's adult questions. The little girl, her voice barely a whisper, piped up, "But Miss, Jigglypuff is cute! Why can't it sing?" Tears welled up in her eyes again, threatening to spill over. The young boy puffed out his chest and pointed a finger at the Jigglypuff accusingly. "Yeah! It should sing for us! Maybe it knows 'If You're Happy and You Know It'! We could all sing together!" He looked around hopefully, a small smile tugging at the corner of his lip at the prospect of a fun sing-a-long. Jigglypuff blinked, its indignation momentarily doused by the sight of the tearful little girl. This wasn't the reaction it was used to. Usually, audiences were captivated, begging for more after each song. The little boy's suggestion, however, reignited a spark of hope. A sing-along? Perhaps these weren't such bad eggs after all. Just as Jigglypuff began to inflate its lungs for a gentle verse of Lonely Liepard, a flash of silver caught its eye. A tiny, Arthropod Pokémon stood before it, claws raised in a nonsensical greeting. It scuttled closer, its eyes gleaming with determination. "My human asked for you not to sing! I... I think it's because she wants you to protect your voice until the competition!" Jigglypuff's amusement soured. A human commanding a Pokémon to silence it? The audacity! It puffed up even more, its pink fur bristling. "Sing-Offs are for singing, little one. Perhaps you haven't heard my dulcet tones before?" It took a deep breath and broke out into verse: Lonely Liepard, roaming all alone, In the wilderness, where no love's shown. Searching for a heart to set it free, Oh, lonely Liepard, why can't you see?Mistrun frantically tried to cover her antennae but realised she couldn't reach them. So, with surprising speed, she took the only course of action available to her and lunged forward, a metallic glint flashing in her claws. Jigglypuff barely had time to react before a searing pain shot through its side. It yelped, curling into a ball defensively, its dream fading with each strained puff of air. However, the show must go on and it continued to sing... Once there was a time when love was near, But now it seems that love has disappeared. Why did you leave me? I thought we're meant to be, Now I'm wandering, lost in misery.The Wimpod, for all her bravery, was no match for the raw power of Jigglypuff's voice. Her eyes closed as the melody washed over her. Her metallic claws, moments ago poised for another attack, began to twitch erratically. Her tiny body slumped as the lullaby seeped into her psyche. The children, initially wide-eyed with shock, found their eyelids growing heavy. The raw emotion in Jigglypuff's song held an unexpected undercurrent of pure, unadulterated beauty. It was a beauty that soothed, a melody that wove itself around their anxieties and lulled them into a state of drowsy contentment.

"Because it's going to put you to sleep!" Aglaia said gruffly as she tried to herd them away, with three very curious kids that was more or less impossible. How many times were she going to repeat herself? "Why's that bad?" Emilio asked innocently and Aglaia sent him an annoyed look, was he just trying to argue with her now? "You want to sleep now?!" She exclaimed exasperated but the jigglypuff had heard the boy's suggestion and all three kid's eyelids were certainly getting heavy. Aglaia felt herself falling drowsy and she would have to make up her mind about what to do now, quickly. There weren't really any alternative, she knew what she had to do, although she didn't like it. There was no way she would be able to drag three sleeping kids with her, and she would be of no help if she too was sleeping, it just felt so wrong to leave them. The young trainer shook her head harshly and slapped her own cheeks lightly to stay awake, and with a last glance of the now sleeping kids she rushed away. Just to the edge of jigglypuff's singing power, she stopped when she felt the tiredness lifting, and she turned to look back on the scene.'
"What am I going to do?!" She mumbled to herself, jigglypuff was singing its heart out with all three kids sleeping soundly. Sleeping was also Mistrun, Blue and Emilio's rattata. Poochyena was no where in sight. Sinclair was hanging in the air motionlessly and Aglaia narrowed her eyes. Was it sleeping too? Did it even sleep? "Sinclair?" She called and the bronzor turned to look at her. "So it isn't affected, I wonder why," she mumbled. "Never mind, he can get close and that's all which matters." She found a pokeball and waved it in the air, "Hey Sinclair, can you use it on the singer?" She called out and she felt a tug on the pokeball. She let go and watched it float all the way to the bronzor and then past it towards the jigglypuff, it was glowing slightly from the use of psychic powers.
On this distance jigglypuff's song was actually pretty nice to listen to, it did have a great voice although to Aglaia's human ears the text was rather repetitive.

The children tossed and turned in the tall grass as they fought against the sleep that consumed them. They were far gone, light snoring raising from the young boy that was previously arguing about having Jigglypuff sing. The young girl kicked and clawed at the ground, raking bits of grey debris underneath her fingernails. Jigglypuff continued unfazed by Aglaia and the children as they slumbered, its hands clasped tightly together with wide eyes that smiled from their corners. Lonely Liepard, roaming all alone On the wings of a Pidove, your love’s flown Far from my wounded heart, you see As fate and time have stolen you away from meThe young girl’s dream was strange and enchanting. The ground no longer existed. She floated in a strange black space that seemed to stretch on as far as she could see in either direction. Whenever she shouted or called out, her voice echoed in an almost ear-splitting decibel around her. A tall blue leopard with large white diamond markings painted on its hide appeared from the darkness. It’s silhouette highlighted the large diamond-shaped crest jutting out of its head where a mane of thick purple hair-like fur poured out the back of its skull and along its back. Two long ribbons whipped at either side. “My child. You will one day face many great challenges.” It spoke to the young girl, its eyes never blinking. “If you never learn empathy, you’re doomed to fail.”The young boy’s dream was much different and almost ordinary. It began in his room with his game controller planted firmly between both hands. He yelled and screamed at the screen as his character kept failing at the very simple task of opening a carboard box. Though it only required pressing the A button once, it seemed that no matter how hard he tried he couldn’t hit the button at just the right moment that the game required, resulting in him having to retry the same task repeatedly. Then, a strange yellow tiger-like canine with black stripes jumped straight out of the screen. He had a thick black crest on the front of his face and two long sabers jutting out of his mouth. From the back of his skull flowed a long purple mane. “If you do not learn how to care for others.” He spoke boldly without blinking. “You will lose everyone you hold dear.”As soon as the Poke Ball touched the top of Jigglypuff’s head it would pull the Pokemon inside. Jigglypuff wouldn’t struggle against its captor and instead welcomed its new home with open arms, causing the ball to ding almost instantly. As soon as Jiggylpuff disappeared, its move wore off, causing the kids to wake up screaming over each other to Aglaia. “I HAD THE CRAZIES DREAM!” “…WAS PLAYING MY GAME AND THEN…” “…STRANGE LOOKING LEOPARD SAID…” “….TIGER DOG BARKED THAT I..” “…LIKE I’M NOT A GOOD KID…” “…AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT MEANT!”Yeah…poor Aglaia was probably right to not want a family right this second.

Aglaia frowned worriedly as she watched the two youngest kids trash and turn in their sleep, was they having nightmares? She felt even worse for leaving them, but it was the only way she could see she could end this fast, although of course things weren't going her way when Mistrun also fell asleep. To Aglaia's surprise, Emilio was sleeping quite peacefully from what she could see at this distance. He had simply curled up around his rattata and they were snoozing away.
"It worked," Aglaia said relieved when the pokeball dropped from Sinclair and down at the singer, ending the song instantly. There were a few heartbeats with just silence and the poochyena popped out from the bush and looked wondering at the adult trainer, she had managed to stop the singing pokemon? One who had given its old pack so many troubles. It sneaked forward to either sniff at the pokeball, or perhaps check on Emilio and Rattata, but then the smallest kids woke up and instantly began screeching out their dreams. Aglaia wanted to do as the pup, spin around and flee to safety but she was trapped as they rushed to her and barraged her with their shouting stories. She stared wide eyed at them, tense and uncomfortable, she didn't say a peep before they were quiet for a moment (or more likely began to demand answers of her since she didn't react). "that.. that sounds really strange!" She squeaked with a nervous laughter and looked from one to another, "I.. I don't know what it means, probably just a dream," she tried and then added hopefully, "perhaps your mother and father will know? What about asking them?"
Emilio were still sleeping, or at least trying to. He curled further around his rat, who just snuggled against him, "just five more minutes," he mumbled as he fought waking up. Mistrun woke slowly, and so did Blue, although they did little else than look around drowsily, trying to catch up with where they were and what all the shouting was about. Sinclair lifted the pokeball containing the jigglypuff, who was now surely losing out on its competition but probably would get plenty of singing in its new life. Aglaia smiled gratefully as she accepted the pokeball, thinking to herself that this was a pokemon she was not going to keep.

Aglaia was so much older than the two kids that they simply stared at her as she spoke. She seemed wise so if she was sure that the dream was just a strange dream, then maybe she was right? But then, why would they ask their parents? Did adults not always know everything? “Momma and Daddy are always busy.” The young boy pouted, crossing his arms over his chest firmly as he planted his butt on the ground. “That’s why I’ve decided…I’m running away! Will you adopt me, miss?” He asked her hopefully. The girl shook her head firmly. She pushed the young boy with both hands to shake him and try and push him over in the grass. “Oh no you’re not!” She snapped firmly, poking and prodding him angrily. “You can’t just run away from your problems! My teacher says a brave person always faces their fears. You’re just upset because of what daddy did last time you were doing something you weren’t supposed to!” To which the boy jumped up only to hit his sister against her head in anger, causing her to cry profusely. “YOU SHUT UP MISS KNOW IT ALL!” He snapped firmly. “You’re in trouble too, you know!”Another Pokemon crawled out of the tall grass, disturbed by the antics of the children as they bickered and fought amongst each other. “Some of us have nests we’re tending to!” The small blue hare with sharp quills jutting out of its back growled. She kicked at the ground and lowered her head angrily, preparing to rush after both the boy and girl and ram into their legs with her head. Maybe she could make them shut up so that she could continue working on her nest. Was this mother hen of a human that bad at raising her own kids? Nidoran spun and yelled loudly, “AND YOU! YOU need to control your offspring better, you hear me trainer?! This is a poor way to raise the next generation!” Nidoran very firmly informed Aglaia. A Wild Nidoran (F) Appeared! Level 13.

Aglaia looked surprised at the two young kids, they were wiblings?! Nothing in their demeanor had suggested that, she had been sure they were just childhood friends. Although being siblings could explain their bickering, they were often forced to be together by their parents then. She visibly flinched when the kid asked if she would adopt him, "no!" she blurted out. She realized that might not have been the best answer, but then the kids were squabbling and she couldn't get a word in and decided to simply drop it. Scratching her head a bit, she wondered if she should try bring them along with her to Azalea or if she could leave them out here and just let someone in town know about them. Emilio sat up rubbing his eyes and pouted as he looked at the two other kids, "why are you shouting?" he asked drowsily and yawned, "I had such nice dream..." Poochyena was poking its head out from where it had hid, and Mistrun went over to chat with Rattata while Blue skidded over to the arguing kids. "Sur skitskit!" She called out to them and then blew a lot of bubbles into the air, hopefully she had their attention when she shot a signal beam through a lot of them and a rainbow of colors spread in the air. "Woah!" Emilio awed at the sight.
"Aarh!" Aglaia gasped and stumbled backwards only to trip over her own feet and fall backwards, when the nidoran aggressively began to shout. "Please!" She gasped it beggingly as she raised her hands protectively. Blue dropped distracting the kids and rushed over to help Aglaia, shooting a Bubble Beam after the wild rabbit. Aglaia noticed she had dropped a pokeball and accidently clicked it when she grabbed it to keep it safe from the horribly aggressive and dangerous nidoran. A pair of big wings spread between her and the blue rabbit as Honeywind appeared, facing the wild pokemon. "What is going on?" He asked soothingly and Blue's eyes jumped between him, Aglaia and the nidoran, "She thinks the human adult is the mother?" She asked hesitantly, not really believing that could be true. "She's not! I know this one's parents," Rattata called out and gestured to Emilio, "and those two we have just run into."

"WHy noOOooot!" The boy complained when denied the opportunity to be adopted by someone who wasn't his parents. He huffed at the know-it-all who was crying now after he shoved her. "Urg. Shut upppp." Ah, siblings. Why were they so mean to each other? "Stop it! You're just doing this so I look like the bad guy!" "You're the one that ran off. And pushed me!" "You followed! Dummy!" As they kept bickering, Blue got between the angry nidoran that was scolding the humans for their noise making. Those bubbles burst forth from its little buggy mouth and made the nidoran chitter with upset, leaping forth and slashing sharp claws down Blue's face. <Why are you attacking me?! It is not my fault you cannot control your human and your human cannot control her offspring! Do you know how hard it is to take care of nestlings with all this noise?!> The butterfree then floated in and caught the brunt of some tiny stinging barbs that the nidoran spat. <And stop crowding me!

"Well.. I.." Aglaia started but trailed off as the kids clearly didn't listen to a word she was saying. They were so busy bickering they didn't saw any of Blue's attempted distraction of them and then the nidoran appeared and forced her to change her focus.
Honeywind looked dryly at the nidoran, "why do you even care? How she treats them isn't affecting you at all," he said, he wasn't going to let something as trivial as this bother him and ruin his day, and he never understood why others let it. "They are not hers!" Blue repeated half shouting, "we have just found them and tries to calm them down!" She glided back a bit when the nidoran complained about being crowded, "leave the human alone, please." Honeywind shook his head a bit, "she won't listen I'm afraid, or she'd done that already." He turned to the poison type, "we are many because we're traveling with the human, think of it as a pack or flock, you must have them in this area as well." The nidoran didn't sound like she was going to give up on the matter anytime soon and he honestly didn't wanted to battle, but he had the perfect move to get over this quickly, he began flapping his wings. While he had planned on using whirlwind, it took some time getting it up and running, and this close it mostly just felt like a gust of wind.
Aglaia scrambled away, hoping the pokemon would handle the trouble and keep her safe. "How I miss having Wystan around," she mumbled for who knows how many times, but she needed him for whenever she was ready to face Bugsy, and she would need to be certain of the strategy needed for that. A look told her the pokemon seemed to be handling just fine, and without needing her guidance, which was good. Well, for once you wouldn't want me as your mommy, Aglaia's mind popped up with a good answer to the kid's whining question, way too late obviously, typical. "Are you okay?" A voice said quietly beside her and she smiled to Emilio, "I'm fine, I just got surprised." "They are annoying," he mumbled as he looked at the two younger kids. "Yeah," Aglaia said absentmindedly as she folded her arms around her legs, thinking about what she could do with the situation.

The nidoran wasn't listening. The kids weren't listening. NOBODY was listening to anybody. Quite the overwhelming situation to have at hand. But it would all be a little easier to think when Honeywind flapped his wings and kicked up a harsh gust of wind. The nidoran dug her claws into the loamy soil, head down, ears flat, little body straining against the sudden gale. However, there was no fighting forever. Her traction in the soil was soon lost and suddenly, she was thrown backwards and into the bushes, where she didn't re-emerge. Either fainted or she decided that it wasn't worth it to keep complaining. By then, the kids had finally stopped actively bickering and were pouting, arms crossed, looking away from each other. They were red-faced and moody like any little thing could have them slipping back into their argument and they'd be right back where they were before the battle began.

Honeywind smiled pleased as his tactic of avoiding the battle had worked once again. He might have buffered the nidoran a bit more than he was aware of, but he had blown it away and in his mind that didn't count as a battle. The nidoran hadn't really reacted to their attempts to convince that she was wrong, she had probably been too busy to fight the sudden gust that ended up blowing her away, so there would have been no reason to continue arguing. Some pokemon thought, for some weird reason, that if they beat the other in a battle, their point of view was correct. Aglaia exhaled relieved when the nidoran disappeared and stood up. The kids had quieted down even! She had made up her mind, it was time she got to Azalea with Emilio, he had dragged this out for far too long, and even if she had wanted to bring the two younger kids with her (which she didn't), she was sure they didn't want to go with her and didn't want to argue a lot with them. "Alright, I'm going to Azalea now and since you two won't come along I'll leave some pokemon with you for protection and play," she explained and turned to point at Blue Cheese and Honeywind, "You two will be responsible, try keep them around this area until I return. It shouldn't be long."Blue looked excitedly, perhaps they would want to watch some of her performances like her former kid trainer. Honeywind looked resigned but at least it would mean he wasn't going to be thrown into a lot of random battles. "Come on Emilio," Aglaia said as she recalled the remaining of her pokemon and started towards Azalea. He hurried after her with a grin, his rattata taking the time to fetch the poochyena and making sure it wasn't forgotten entirely. A budding friendship seemed to be forming between the two. "Great way to lose those two! Where are we going really?" Emilio asked and Aglaia continued forward without looking at him, "Azalea," she said bluntly. He stopped dead in his track. "What? No! I don't want to go!" He instantly complained, she didn't stop. "That was the plan on along, remember?" She called to him and after a moment of hesitation he ran after her, not wanting to be left alone. "It has been long enough and your family is waiting for you. Also I can't leave those two alone out here, I'm sure someone is looking for them so we need to tell where they are." She pointed a thumb over her shoulder. "You promised you'd teach me to bond with my pokemon before we returned!" Emilio shouted and Aglaia slowed down a bit, that she had forgotten. "Right.. right," she mumbled, "things have changed, but I still want to help you. We need to find the ones who are looking for those two, and then we can ask your family if we can go out and train and bond with your new pokemon. I'm sure they will let you, especially if you behave," Aglaia said bluntly and Emilio grumbled something but didn't argue. They reached Azalea much faster than Aglaia had anticipated and she felt her shoulders relax as some of the responsibility was going off her shoulders fast. "See anyone who look like they are looking for someone?" She asked Emilio and then glanced at the bristling poochyena. "You might want to recall.." she began but she got interrupted when the kid shouted frantically, "Look! They are surely searching! Come on, let's ask them!" And off he was, running towards some who looked to be searching, Aglaia had to admit that he was right but she worried of the semi-wild dog's reaction. "Excuse me, are you looking for something?" Aglaia would ask politely when she had caught up, Emilio had simply told them they wanted to ask them something and waited for her to catch up. Wordcount: 663 (ooc: Atten evolves and learns Protect, his ability changes to Shed Skin. Switching out Honeywind and Blue Cheese for Smokey and riolu. Looking for someone to throw the two young kids at And I very much would like help to get riolu introduced to Aglaia, preferably something where she can save it one way or another ^^ )
