Im starting this off last night. ^^
~Eva~
After I talked to Hoom I walked out of the hallway and went into the boys side. I saw a poster for a valentines day ball. 'Lupe must have put it up. It looks like something she would do.' I thought to myself with a smile. I then went and knocked on Daniels door and he opened it. "Hay Daniel." I said with a smile.
"Come on in." he said as he motioned me inside. I came in to see, that on his desk was his pocket generator, taken apart. "Im trying to make it more powerful." he said with a smile.
"Ok." I said with a bright smile. I saw him go over and work on it again. I sat down on his bed and watched. I turned on the TV after a while and started watching the weather report. It looked like tomarrow was going to be cloudy in the mourning and evening but clear skies at night with a full moon. 'Just perfect for the valentines day ball.' I thought to myself with a smile. "Hey Daniel, there is going to be a ball tomarrow, want to go to it?" I asked with a bright smile.
"Sure. Dont you need a dress and tux for that kind of stuff though?" he asked still not looking up from his work.
"Im heading into town tomarrow. Ill find a small job I can do fast so I can earn the money for it." I said with a smile.
He then turned worried. "Is that safe? Wouldnt people be scared to see a gijinka walking around?" he asked.
"Dont worry. I know how to hide my ears and tail. Ill be just fine." I said with a smile.
"Ok, if you say so." he said still a bit worried.
"Ill be right back. I need to go fix my dress up." I said.
"Ok, seeya later." he said.
I ran out of the room and back to my room. I sat down on the bed and pulled my dress off. I looked in the middle drawer of my dresser where I hadnt looked. To my suprise and joy there was a needle, some brown thread, a pair of sizors, and a small roll of brown cloth. When I was 7 I had learned to sow so that I could fix my dress when I ripped it, It came in handy now. I sat down and cut off the white bottom of my dress. I then cut a large strip of brown cloth and started to sow the new part of my dress. When I was done I sowed the white bottom back on. Afterwards I did the same thing to the arms of my dress. Then I turned it over and sowed the hole in the back up that I had gotten from the battles yesterday. When I looked at my dress I smiled. It was good as new, and would fit me as well as it did when I was little. I then thought of something. I grabbed the role of cloth out again and started to cut. I cut 6 large strips and sowed 3 of them together, I then sowed the other three together. I then cut a large amount of cloth off and started sowing it into a bag shape. When I was done I sowed the two strips onto the back as handles. I looked at the backpack I had just made. It wasnt very pretty but it would hold, I knew that much. It had an open up top and a cloth lupe fasten, It had two strapes on the back for carrying it, and a small pocket on the front outside for carrying small items, and was big enough in the inside to carry large items. I put the remainder of the cloth on the inside of the big pouch and put the needle and tread in the little pouch. I then opened the top drawer of the dresser and put my old vine berry pouch in the big pouch. 'That berry pouch lasted longer then I thought it would.' I thought to myself with a smile.
I closed the backpack and put my dress back on. I reajusted my scarf back over it and tightened up my gloves. I looked down at my shoe's and was glad that I hadnt started to outgrow them yet. I put on the backpack and ran out of the room and to the neerest bathroom. When I looked in the mirror my clothes were just fine. I grabbed a hairbrush on the counter and brushed my hair out, I then cleaned the brush out and sat it back down. I noticed my hair had grown longer and was happy about that. I then turned around and ran back to Daniel's room. I came back in and sat back down on the bed where I had been. "Welcome back." he said still not looking up from his work. I turned the TV on and started watching the Berry Lovers Chat. One of my favorite shows. I heard Daniel say, "Yes! Its done!" I looked over to see him smiling and holding his reput together pocket generator. I noticed that it was a bit smaller then before. He put the generator into his pocket and looked over to me. He smiled and said, "Your dress looks good."
"Thanks. Your genrator looks stronger and smaller." I said with a smile.
"Thanks. It is stronger and I shrunk it so its even more portable." he said. I noticed the sun was coming up. My stomach started to growl. "I guess its time for breakfast." I said with a smile.
"Yep." he said as he stood up from his desk. We went downstaires to the kitchen. No one was there yet. We ate some Poke Tarts and each had a glass of milk.
"Time for me to go find some work." I said when we were done.
"Ill come with. Im sure I can help." he said.
"Ok." I said with a smile. He stared as I tucked my tail up under my dress and tucked my ears in behind my hair. "I told you I could hide them." I said with a smile.
"I guess your right." he said with a smile. We then walked into town. We walked around town for a while but couldnt find a place that had a small job open for kids. I sighed.
"Dont worry. Im sure youll find some work." said Daniel trying to cheer me up.
"Im afraid not. No one hires kids that often." I said. I then remembered how I used to make money when I was little and needed food. "Why dont I put on a show." I said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"I remember that when I was little I used to put on shows or plays. Im good at acting after all. I also used to use pokemon moves and danceing to make my shows more exciting too." I said with a smile.
"Ok, so what are you doing this time?" he asked.
"Youll see." I said as I started twirling. My dress puffed up and twirled with me. I did a jump and a few balarina steps that I had learned while watching a big TV in Jubilife City once. A few people had started to watch by this point. I stoped and curtseied. I then jumped in the air and did a backflip and landed on the roof of a building behind me. By this point I had a bigger crowd around. I noticed that I had inspired Daniel. He stepped forward and pulled out his pocket generator. He put it up in the air and shot a big shot of electricity out of it and it went up into the air and exploded like a firework over head. When it exploded I jumped off of the roof, did a tripple flip, and landed on my feet with my arms raised in the air. A huge audience was watching us by this point and I smiled happily. 'Just like old times.' I thought. They threw in quite a bit of money and then the crowd dispersed. I picked up the money and started counting. "This is enough to buy a dress and more." I said with a smile. We went to a big fancy dress store nearby and went inside. We went to the girls section and I saw a dress that I wanted. It was foot length and was an emrald green. It had long silk seethrough bell sleaves, and was covered in sparkles everywhere else. I checked the tag, I had enough. I went up to the desk lady and bought it along with a black tux and green tie for Daniel(he really wanted it). she gave us them in a paper bag and we left. When we got back to the house we went to the backyard and sat under a large Oran Berry Tree. I looked at the dress and smiled, "I cant wait for tonight." I said.
"Me either." said Daniel as he drifted off to sleep under the tree. It was warm out, and without the sun, it was a perfect time for a nap. So I put the dress back in the bag and fell asleep against Daniel. Just like always, in our dreams, we were with Haunter, watching everyone like always.

By the way, no one did ever say, what was the name of the town we are outside. What is it anyway?
Hoom let me go off to my room and told me to tell maybe Estelle or Lupe about where I had gone, but I figured they didn't really notice my absance or realize it, but I nodded to her shyly and closed my door with my back to it. I really didn't expect anyone to come after me... I suppose some people do care in this club...
I walked away from the door and put way the rest of the items left on the bed and then got rid of the shattered glass and fixed the picture frame of my family, setting it back in it's place. I wonder if I'll get my blanket back... then I looked at my shattered window Maybe if I wait... it will come back...
I nodded to myself and decided to talk a walk around the club. I needed to figure out where everthing was. And maybe it would give some time for the wind to pick up.
-Faye
When I got back, totally disappointed and really tired, I went and got some shrimp flavor ramen to help wake up. Reo got a bowl of cereal, and, before I knew it, he was face first in the bowl. I gave a small giggle, but it was tough to avoid the same thing with my ramen. At least milk doesn't burn.
He woke up a few seconds later, and ended up on the floor, cereal everywhere. I heard a few people laugh, but I jumped up, offering him a hand.
"Need some help?" I offered. But he just got up and walked off. Sighing, I finished my ramen and started towards my room. When I got there, I found a flyer for a Valentines Day Dance. A dance! Maybe I could go with Reo? But it would be stupid for a girl to ask a boy. And dropping hints wasn't my style (not that he would pick them up anyway...). So, if I get asked, I get asked, if I don't, I'll go and have fun anyway. Now... it was time to think of an outfit. Actually, I had been meaning to talk to Estelle about a new outfit for a while. I was thinking something with grey and a bit more black... Well, as the saying goes: Back to the drawing board. Along with both the designs for my outfit, I had to get to designing my room as well.
This might take a while... So, time to start drawing. I pulled out my sketchbook, which I hadn't pulled it out in a while. I really needed to get drawing again. Grabbing my sketching pencil, markers, inking pens and shading markers. "Time to get working!" I said determinedly.
~Kat
Time for me to get drawing too... *sigh* I have WAY too much to do.
I headed out of the kitchen since I could take a hint that Lupe wasn't in a good mood. However, I was glad she didn't figure it out. I mean what happened with Estelle was very odd and I wanted to make sure she was ok. She ran out so fast, and I just had to play it cool so Lupe didn't figure it out. I came across Hon on my way back upstair and he had told me he wanted to work out in my room. It took me by surprise but I agreed but than again how did the little runt know about the stuff in my room? Must have snuck in.
I walked up the stairs and went to Estelle's room. I stood in front of her door for a second, I grabbed my chest. My heart felt like it was going to burst out from how hard it was beating. I felt this way once before with Hoom. I didn't understand I mean she was way to young for me anyway plus she would probably be better with that Umbreon. I knocked on her door finally.
"Estelle?" I asked.
There was no answer. I gently put my hand on her door and it opened up. I slowly peaked my head in to see if she was in there but I could hear the shower on so I didn't dare to go any further. As I turned to leave, I began to hear Estelle singing.
"I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
And to say that, I love you!"
My eyes became huge. That song! How did she know it? My head began to hurt. I brought both of my hands to my head and got on one knee. Memories of my past began to run through my head. I remember that song because when I was a child and alone after the incident with Team Galactic, there was a girl I met who sang that same exact song. We spent many days together playing game and even singing together. Her face was blurry I couldn't remember it. That girl disappeared as fast as our relationship grew. I never knew what happened to her, yet why would Estelle be singing that?
Her voice was lovely like an angel and was very soothing as well. I couldn't help but feel relaxed. That is when I didn't even notice that she turned the shower out. I saw the door opening and I quickly closed her door and ran back towards the stairs. As I ran I saw Hoom and Hon in the distance taking a walk. Heck a bit of fresh air would be nice I thought.
As I reached the final step a Smeagle walked in front of me, lucky for me I jumped over him just in time. He shivered for a moment and turned around.
"Sorry buddy! I'm in a bit of a hurry." I waved to him.
He looked at me strangely and walked up the steps. I ran out the door to try and catch up with Hoom and Hon. I was getting close when I overheard Hon say, "So what really happened between you and Lux?" Damn little brat can't keep his nose out of our business but than again I didn't want him to know just yet. My heart again was pounding hard. But what could I do...
"Hoom!" I yelled waving at her as I ran towards them both.
"Lux?!?" She smiled as she and Hon stopped to turn.
I had to stop them and I thought of a way to do it.
I laughed nervously. "Hey how are you doing?" I asked her smiling with my eyes closed as I rubbed the back of my head. I needed to play this cool.
"Oh...I am well." She replied softly.
"Lux what the hell are you doing here?" Hon asked with a suspicous look.
I glared at him for a moment. "I was gonna ask you the same thing about how you knew about my bed room." His look than turned into a embarassed one as he turned to the side.
"Lux did you hear the news?" Hoom asked.
I looked at her a bit confused what was she talking about.
"I guess not. You look a bit flustered. There is going to be a Valentine's Ball at the mansion." She giggled. "I mean it sounds like so much fun but I have nothing to wear."
"Oh a ball? Sounds kind of boring." I muttered. I didn't realize what I said would hit her so much. She looked down at the ground.
"Yeah it sounds a bit childish. You're right." She said softly.
Damn it Lux, you are such a heartless jerk! I thought to myself. Girls are so gonna love going to that. She needs to look beautiful! I gotta make it up to her.
"No Hoom, its only childish if you don't go. So how about you get yourself a nice dress and have some fun." I said to her trying to make it up.
"Well, I guess I could head into town today and find one." She said.
"Yeah sis you should go! You totally need to go buy a dress. I might ask Melody to go with me." Hon said excitedly.
We both looked at him and laughed.
"WHAT? WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?!?" He yelled getting all flustered.
"Nothing nothing kid!" I chuckled as I patted him on the head. I than turned my attention to Hoom. "How about you and I go into the city together? I really need to buy some stuff for myself and wouldn't mind the company."
"So you are asking me to go to the city with you?" She said surprised.
"Hoom, how about we make it a date? I'll even treat you to lunch!" I grinned. Maybe this would make it up to her. I put out my hand to her. She turned a bit red and grabbed it softly.
"Alright its a date but I am picking the restaurant Luxy." She snicker.
I gently held her hand tighter. "Luxy? Alright whatever you say Hoomy." I sarcastically replied.
"Hey Hon is that okay if I go with him?" She said turning to him letting go of my hand. He looked a bit confused than smiled at her.
"Sure sis have fun!" He said with both arms behind his head. "I got some things I gotta do." He than ran off back towards the mansion, leaving Hoom and I alone.
I shrugged. "Okay are you ready?"
"Yep! I got everything I need." She smiled.
We began to walk towards the city side by side. It had been a while since i had been on a date and she seemed really excited to go get a dress. I was happy to see that beautiful smile of hers. I myself was excited to go on my date with Hoom.
-END-
HAHAHAHA! Now Hon will have to wait a bit longer to find out the truth!!! >:P I am so evil lol. And yes Estelle and Lux's past is heating up. Oh and if that song looks familiar it is because that was the Pokemon song called "Misty's song." Yeah that was way back in the day hehehe!!
I hope you enjoyed!!! :)
