Aberius
As I waited for someone to answer the door, I heard clamoring inside. Everyone seemed to be gathering toward one part of the house. I wondered exactly what was going on here.
Suddenly, the door opened and I met with a particularly tall Luxray gijinka. Was it just my imagination or did he glare at me? I couldn't tell because the expression faded pretty quickly, but he still didn't look at me too warmly...
"Uh, hi..." I said. "Er, sorry to bother you if you're busy, but I'm a little lost right now. Do you think you could point me in the direction of the nearest town?"
The Luxray didn't answer and seemed to be at a loss for words for a moment. Like he was struggling to decided whether or not I was safe.
"Lux...?" came a voice from further in. It looked to be a Kadabra. "Lux, aren't you gonna let him in?"
"Uh... yeah," the Luxray finally said. "Come on in. You look tired."
"Well, I... I don't think..." I started to say.
"Oh, come on in," said the Kadabra, looking a little wobbly, "We don't bite"
Feeling a little self-aware, I nodded and stepped inside the house. The entry hall was really big and it looked like this place could hold 100 gijinka, if not more.
"You're new here, right? My name's Badrak," he said as the Luxray walked up to him and braced his body holding his arm. Had something happened to Badrak that he couldn't move on his own? "This guy here is Lux. He's not so bad once you get to know him. Oh, and pay no mind to my current condition... I just got into a little accident." Badrak smiled.
Get to know him? I didn't plan on being here very long... I only wanted directions. Plus, Lux doesn't seem too comfortable around me. Did he have a bad experience with an Absol or something? Badrak seems pretty nice, though. I don't find others so easy to talk to. Maybe they're in the middle of something so they can't explain at the moment. I guess I'll have to be patient for now.
"You've got perfect timing," Badrack said, "We were just about to have a meeting to introduce the new gijinka. You can come with us."
"I thought I heard something like an announcement on my way here... I can also smell a lot of gijinka heading to one area," I responded.
Badrak laughed, "Lux said something like that just a moment ago. You two might actually be kinda similar, then."
I looked at Lux and caught his eye, but just as quickly, he looked away. His expression made me think he remembered something unpleasant. Before long, we came to a large room where a lot of gijinka were gathered. There were many conversations going on. Some of the gijinka looked really nervous, others indifferent. Suddenly, I felt light-headed. Damn... is the hunger finally taking it's toll on me? I could no longer hold on and felt the ground rushing toward me as I blacked out.
~*~ Okay! Sorry if it's a bit long. XD So now Abbie's getting to know a couple gijinka here. I hope I got the personality right... I kinda pushed up a barrier between Lux and Aberius since Lux's rival is an Absol. X3 If there's anything that's ooc, let me know and I'll move things around. =^_^= Okie dokey, I guess somone else will continue. Just to let the next person know, Abbie's a little anti-social, usually, but he still has manners. Also, he's stubborn sometimes, so he's intent on getting to his goal. Until next time, then =3 ~*~
