((OOC: Yeah, the title sucks, I know))
As Alison neared Vermilion, she sighed and said, "I still don't have a Pok?mon for Atticus' mom..." She sighed again as a small, poliwag jumped out of the bushes, trying to look tough. Alison giggled and whispered to Vulpix to keep the attacks easy. Soon the small battle took place and Alison threw a pokeball, and the small Pok?mon was caught and then sent to the pc. "Lets go to Vermilion and get the Pok?mon." She said to her Pok?mon as they ran toward the city.
They soon arrived and quickly found the Pok?Center. She switched Mareep for the Poliwag and smiled to her Pok?mon before she returned her Pok?mon. She then walked around the town, waiting for the others to arrive.

Another hour, or perhaps many more he didn't really know, had passed and Golduck and he still looked around, perplexed. Cairo began to grow worried, unsure of whether or not he had even been heading in the proper direction this entire time, until at long last, some manner of reassurance awaited him beyond a tuff of grass he pushed away from in front of him. A red and white building towered above athe rest of the grass before him, coaxing him into sprints until he was finally out of the grass, and into the maintained culture of a city he rcognized, via a sign's entitlement, as Vermillion city. Cairo sighed deeply before throwing his arms in the air alongside Golduck who did the same, and thye both laughed, sprinting their way to the Pok?mon center.
He passed through the translucent, electronic doors prior to Cairo looking to the counter where he saw Alison conversing with Joy. "Alison!" Cairo called out before jogging to her side and embracing her.

She returned his embrace and kissed him passionately. "Maybe we can actually get time to ourselves." She said with a smirk and rested her head on his chest. "So what Pok?mon did you get?" She asked and soon the conversation grew. They walked along, hand in hand, as they talked. They then sat down under a tree, her leaning against him. They sat under the tree, enjoying the quietness and let their Pok?mon run around. "So, how's your leg?" He asked her, looking at the thick bandage around her leg. "Its been better. Its still a little sore though."

"You wanna see the Pok?mon I got?" He inquired. He had exchanged Mawile's Pokeball for it reluctantly, he hated putting Pok?mon in the PC, he felt bad, thus he just grabbed a Pokeball at random from his belt. He tore it from his belt and expanded the ball, where his recently healed Pok?mon emerged in a flash of white with the accompanying sound that generally entailed as well. As parkles diminished, a smaller than average Squirtle stood, content, looking to Alison with glossy eyes. "Squirt?" it appeared to inquire, "I caught him by a lake I saw, pretty cool, right? Least, I thought so" he said, smiling at his newest Pok?mon. He was beginning to think it might be somewhat hard to give the Pok?mon up.

"This is what I caught." She said letting the three newest caught Pok?mon out. A Seedot, a Ledian and a Poliwag appeared. "I caught these three. I think I'll keep the Ledian and send the Seedot home for my little brother. What do you think?" She asked him as she placed a hand on his leg and grabbed his hand with her other hand. "I love you Cairo." SHe said to him.

"I love you...more" he said, then kissing her through a smile. He raised a hand to her cheek as he kissed her, closing his eyes, sending his attention away from Squirtle who climbed to Cairo's lap, apparently now realizing he had no choice but to warm up to the man he assumed would be his trainer for the remainder of his life.
"Finally!" Atticus and Jessica said, startling one another as they had previously been unaware of one another's presence, "Jessica!" "Atticus!" they said simultaneously before they jogged into a tight embrace, blushing as they relinquished one another, "Let's see if we can find Cairo and Alison"
"Woah" Cairo said, breaking away from his kiss as he felt the Pok?mon curl up, and withdraw slightly in its shell as it lay dormant in Cairo's lap. He smiled and looked down affectionately to the Pok?mon, but he feared growing to close to it, and vice versa, so he thought little of it. Alison looked to the Squirtle as well, directing her attention away from Cairo before he quickly kissed her cheek, making her jerk back defenisvely for a moment, before she looked forward, silently before shaking her head and laughing, "You're a loser" she proclaimed as she rolled her eyes and he laughed, throwing his arm around her back and bring himself and Squirtle closer to her.

Alison laughed as she, once again, rested her head against Cairo. She returned all of her Pok?mon except for Ledian who now rested in Alison's arms. She stroked the Pok?mon as her and Cairo sat in light conversation. Soon Atticus and Jessica were seen walking toward them. "Hey" Alison said to her friends as they neared them.

"Hey..." Cairo said. "Did your Pok?mon evolve or something? I don't remember you having an Exeggutor before." Atticus looked to Exeggcutor whose twelve eyes were all upon him. "Yeah, Exeggcute evolved finally." He said smiling. Atticus plopped down on a chair, tired from all the walking. "I think he needs a rest right now, though." He said, grabbing Exeggutor's pokeball and returning the Pok?mon. As he placed the pokeball on his belt he grabbed another. He aimed it at nothing in particular and Togetic appeared in a flash of white light. "Y'know, we can stay at my house." He said, looking around. "We have enough rooms for everyone."

"SquIRtle!" Squirtle said as he rose excitedly from Cairo's lap, "Woah" Cairo said as he was sent back slightly by the Pok?mon, "Woah, I didn't even notice Squirtle, whose Pok?mon is that?" Atticus asked as Cairo stood, taking Squirtle in his hands by the sides of his shell so that he lay horizontally, Cairo throwing its face to Atticus' where its giant smile opened and it offered an affectionate, "Squirtle-SQUIRT" before tilting its head one way, "Your moms" Cairo said before setting Squirtle down at his feet. "So, how exactly do we get to your house, then?" Alison asked as she too stood.

"Just follow me." Atticus said, standing and allowing Togetic to fly and land in his arms where she began to doze off. Atticus waved good bye to Nurse Joy, who he was pretty good friends with. "Welcome to Vermilion." Atticus said, opening his arms to show his friends the sight before him. Hundreds of large buildings and houses lay before them. Cobblestone streets seemed to fill in the cracks where a building couldn't fit. Countless amounts of street vendors tried to sell passing strangers their goods. "Keep your hands in your pockets, kids tend to steal around here." Atticus warned as he confidently strode down the streets of his hometown. "Lookin' for a trade?" A man asked, staring greedily at Togetic and holding several decreased Pok?Balls in between his fingers. "No, thanks." Atticus said and kept walking. He kept moving and quickly rid himself and the others of the various merchants who tried to persuade them to take a look at what they were selling. "Let's take the docks, it's quicker and less crowded..." Atticus said mostly to himself as he quickly switched directions, walking down an alley. When they came to the docks Atticus was happy to breathe in the fresh salty air. Boats of all kinds were tied to the docks, it was a familiar sight to Atticus but the others stopped occasionaly to check things out. "Toge!" Togetic said excitedly, looking straight ahead. Atticus noticed a poster which displayed a happy Togepi and gave details about the upcoming Toge festival. There was another flyer close by so he figured no one would mind if he tore that one down, which he did. "C'mon, it's just up ahead." He said to the others who were still looking at some of the boats and the beautiful blue water. "There it is." He said, pointing to a very large, white house which sat on a hill and was gated off from the rest of Vermilion. Atticus led the others to the opening of the gate which was locked. "Atticus Dosser." He said to a tiny black dot on the side of the gateway. A stone slid out from the gate, revealing a high tech looking pad. Atticus placed his thumb on the pad and allowed it to scan his fingerprint. "Hate doing this..." He mumbled, juggling Togetic in arm. "Welcome." An automated voice said. Atticus took his tumb off of the scanner and allowed the scanner to slide back to its normal position. The gates opened and Atticus led the others up the brick walkway to the doors of his home. Togetic jumped from Atticus's arms and flew around the yard which was thickly occupated with various imported plants and trees, most of which housed berries. Two large fountains rested on either side of the lawn, which was divided by the walkway. It took longer than he liked to reach the doorway and when they came to it the doors were locked. Atticus punched in several numbers onto a keypad that rested on the wall, whispering them to himself as he did so. The door unlocked itself just as Togetic flew back to Atticus and landed on his shoulder where she wobbled a bit. "Really into safety aren't you..." Cairo noted. "Yep. But at least no one's ever broken in before.." He said, holding the door for his friends. "Thanks." Each person said as they entered the house. The large, red carpeted stairs were the first thing noticable in the house. A living room, one of many, was to the left and Atticus noticed his mother gossiping with a friend while sipping a purple wine. She turned to look at Atticus. "Oh, Atticus you've come to visit!" She said, placing her drink down on a coffee table. "And you've brought guests, how nice. Will you be spending the night?" She asked immediately. "Yes, they will." Atticus replied for them. He took a look at his mother, who looked pretty different since he had last seen her. She was wearing a black dress with matching shoes, high heels. Her black hair was tied back into a bun and it almost appeared to stretch her face which had obviously had severe work done recently. She was wearing a diamond necklace as well as diamond earings and two diamond bracelettes. She looked questionably to Togetic for a minute before hugging Atticus as well as the others who hugged back awkwardly. "Well, make yourselves at home. Atticus will show you around." She said, without even allowing the others to introduce themselves or introducing herself. She quickly ran back to the living room to continue her chat with her friend. "Let's go to my room." Atticus said, leading his friends through the house that anyone who didn't live in would get lost in.
Atticus led his friends down a flight of stairs which led to his room in the basement. It was mostly red except for the various expensive things inside it. "I'm gonna go put some things away." Atticus said, rushing off as his friends looked in awe at his large room. He felt kinda embarrassed, he didn't like people thinking he had cool things or envying him. As he walked towards his bed he noticed someone was on it. "Pooch, get off!" He said to the Snubble who was resting atop his pillow. Pooch was startled by Atticus's sudden appearance and he jumped off of the bed and ran away. He could hear his friends saying hello to the Pok?mon as it passed them and went upstairs. Atticus put his bags on his bed, noticing the large amount of hair left by Pooch who Atticus figured spent a fair amount of time down here. Togetic flew away from Atticus and began to explore the room. "What do you wanna do?" Atticus asked the others as he jogged and caught up with them.

Cairo was dumbfounded by the sheer scale of the residence, not to mention Atticus' room which essentially blew his out of the water. "Holy...I dunno" Cairo managed as he looked around the room. "You said wealthy by this is..." "Ostentatious.." Atticus said, "Hardly" Cairo began again, "Its awesome" he said, "I don't suppose we'll all just be staying in your room would we?" Jessica asked from across the room, "I think if we were to stay anywhere else we'd get lost" Alison added form another corner of the room. Squirtle had been put back into his Pokeball prior to their entering the house for means of nto revealing the Pok?mon, but Cairo already missed Mawile at his side, and despite his surroundings, his Pok?mon was all he could think about. "It must be getting near dusk now, right?" Cairo asked.

"Probably." Atticus said. He walked over to an indent in the wall where a screen similiar to a computer screen was lying. He pressed his finger on the screen, awaking it from its screen saver. "Time." He said into a microphone. "Eight oh two." The computer answered. "Yeah, it's getting late." He said, turning to Cairo. "You guys wanna listen to some music?" He asked, loud enough for Jessica and Alison to hear. "Sure." They called back as they plopped down on some of Atticus's comfy pillow chairs and began to watch High Def TV on Atticus's fairly large, wall mounted television. "Ok." He said as Cairo came over to watch what he was doing. He clicked a few buttons on the screen and a few more popped up asking him to select his current mood. Just as he was about to press 'Tired' which would cause the lights to dim down and calm, relaxing music to play Cairo stopped him. "Woah, wait." He said, pointing to a button which read 'Laser Tag', "Is that like real laser tag?" He asked excitedly. "Oh, yeah. I got that installed when I was having my birthday party down here. Wanna play?" Cairo's eyes immediately lit up. "Are you kidding? Yes! We were gonna play once but we never ended up doing it..." Atticus pressed the button. "Laser Tag will begin in exactly seven minutes." A voice echoed throughout the room. "Laser Tag?" Jessica and Alison asked, looking up from the show they were watching. "Wanna play?" Atticus asked, leading himself and Cairo towards a closet where there were several laser guns and small markers each player had to wear which would indicate whether they got hit or not. "Togetic." Atticus called to his Pok?mon who was resting ontop of a shelf. "C'mere!" Togetic flew over to Atticus, landing on his outstretched hand. He placed a marker on the Pok?mon's stomach. "Here." He said, handing a few extra markers to the others. "Place them wherever you want and if you hit them you get more points. He quickly called out Venomoth and Swellow and placed markers on them as well. "When the game starts." He told his Pok?mon. Fly around and try not to let other people hit you with their lasers. Don't worry, you won't get hurt." The Pok?mon flew away from Atticus and waited for the game to start. "Please watch your head." The automatic voice said from all around the room. From the ceiling, a few walls of glass slid down, making for a better and more challenging playing field. "Three, two one. Go!" The voice shouted. The lights immediately began to glow different colors, first green then blue then red then yellow and then orange. Electronic music began playing all throughout the room. While this happened Atticus ran after his friends with his laser gun held high, shooting anything that moved. He ended up getting Togetic a couple times as she kept trying to fly towards him in hopes that he might give up the game and hold her. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, each time someone fired you could hear the sound of a laser echoe throughout the room via the hidden speakers placed in various areas. "Atticus!" Jessica said, laughing as she approached him, holding her laser gun high in the air as a sign of peace. "Alison and Cairo just formed an alliance, let's team up on them!" Atticus smiled and agreed and the two of them raced off to find the others and shoot them.

"And, y'know, Bianca and Yuki'd probably enjoy this, too." Jessica said, tossing two balls she had already pulled out. "Hmm, sure." Atticus said, looking around for any sign of Alison or Cairo. Once Bianca and Yuki had patches on them as well, Jessica explained the general rules and ideas. "Have fun!" She finished as the two Pokémon rushed off to enjoy the game. A few more shots and misses came from both sides, and Jessica began feeling a bit tired, yet wanted to continue. "Whoa! Yuki's playing?!" Alison said from not far off. Jessica took this opportunity to strike, and jumped to where she heard the noise. But, Alison was already aiming a laser shot at Yuki, who became frightened, and ran right for Jessica. After jumping, she knocked Jessica over. "Gah!" Jessica yelled, falling over. As she picked up Yuki in her hands, something odd happened. It wasn't positive, due to the many lights and Yuki's off-white colour, but it seemed both Yuki and Jessica's ring were glowing. "Eh? Yuki... Are you... evolving?" Jessica said, pretty much rhetorically. Atticus and Cairo had both come over as well, hearing the noise. Yuki's shape slowly began to morph as she glowed brighter. "Cool, you are evolving!" Jessica said, feeling her grip grow wider due to the increasing size of the Pokémon in her hands. When evolution was complete, Jessica could barely hold the Pokémon anymore, and had to let go, causing Yuki to drop all of one foot onto Jessica's stomach. Yuki now seemed to have a chilling aura to her, and now had a light blue coat. "Glacia!" The new Yuki cried, licking Jessica's face. "A Glaceon? But, er, how?" Jessica said. She then remembered how her ring had glowed as well... and how the letter said Chad had found it near Snowpoint. "Ah! How could I have been so dumb?! This-- this must've come from the Ice Rock on Route 217! I knew something was familiar!" Jessica said, and looking to her ring. It had lost its deep purple colour, now with a subtler shade. "Wow..." She said, and finally got back up after Yuki ceased her licking.

Cairo gazed at the new Pok?mon. In all of his adventures, through Sinnoh and elsewhere, he could not recollect ever seeing a Glaceon once in his travels. "Yuki" Jessica said before she used much more might than she had before to lift the Glaceon from its feet, "I love you" She said through smiles as she embraced her Pok?mon tightly.
Atticus had strode away and depressed a button. The retracatable walls rose, and Atticus began removing the patches from himself, as well as his and his friends' Pok?mon. "Aww, we're done?" Cairo asked as Atticus requested his gun, "Yep, for now anyways, If we keep this up, my family's Pok?mon'll be up all night because of the noise. I'm SURE they're right outside" Atticus said, pointing to the door with one finger and bringing his and his friends' equiptment to the closet.
"So, if we're all sleeping in here, where exactly do we sleep?" Cairo asked taking Alison's hand, "Uhh, I can grab some blankets and air matresses and stuff, we can set up in front of the tv and watch a movie til we fall asleep or something" Atticus offered as Cairo nodded, "Cool." Atticus returned from a short trip outside the room with some blankets and two small boxes. "What are those?" Alison asked, referring to the boxes as Atticus tossed the blankets to the ground, "Watch. My dad made them, nothing big but, they're convenient" he said before he set one of the devices down and depressed a small button. The button popped back out as quickly as it had been depressed, and the box collapsed into a mass fifteen times its size, "Woah" Cairo said as the giant mattress inflated in a matter of seconds. "Better than our sleeping bags in the cold" Atticus shrugged, hoping this wouldn't inconvenience any of his friends.

"Cool." Alison said as the large mattress came into its full form. After being pointed to the bathroom, Alison showered, dried her hair after she finished her shower, brushed her teeth, pulled her hair into a braid yet again, pulled a pair of pink pjs (a pair of pink pj bottoms and a white beater) and cleaned her leg wound. After she put the new bandage on her leg, she let Vulpix out of her pokeball and brushed her fur. "I think I'll send the Seedot to my brother and maybe I'll keep the Ledian and train her..." She said to Vulpix after she finished brushing her. When her nightly routine was done, she put everything in her bag and walked back into the tv room. "Hey" She said to Cairo as she sat down next to him and leaned her head on his shoulder. "So, what movie are we going to watch?" She asked as Vulpix jumped unto her lap.
