"Really? Now I just need a person that's willing to help..." They were nearly to the Pokemon Center now.

I crossed my arms, looking at Ray, almost angrily. This time, i had no mercy and whacked him lightly on the head. "That is what you get."
I looked away, pretending to be angry, but then smiled, and looked at Ray in the eyes. "Hello? Earth to Ray. Who do you think is right next to you that owes you for getting her medicine back? Huh? Hello?"

"Oh, that's right. I didn't want to ask for any sort of compensation, but I guess that will do. We can make him evolve as soon as we get to the Pokemon center." Ray smiled.

((Sorry I was at my grandparents house and they have no pc. Can someone please update me on who has new pokemon?))

(( I HAZ UH KADABRA! ))

((Also, I have a Pidgey, ans Ivysaur, and a Butterfree.))

((By the way, I don't think I'm gonna make the whole "trade evolution" thing necessary. In most trades you lose your pokemon so I was just gonna keep it as gaining ALOT of experience. So all you Kadabra, Machoke, Graveler, ect... are in luck. Unless you guys disagree that is))

Gary thanked Kon happily and followed the group. "SO Ray, you got a Kadabra? Nice job!" He laughed a bit as he spoke. Also congratulating Kiki on her evolution.

((I have no idea whats going on so I'll just follow you all unitl I gather it all By the way, Maggots grounded and told me to control Jason, so I'm gonna be him for a while too.))

((Awwwwwwww, I was gonna trade to Kiki, who would give it right back. *cry*))

"Thanks. So where have you been?"

"I've been out training with my Beedrill." He smiled proudly, as he took the ball from his belt. "So what havew I been missing around here?" He looked aroundinquisitively.

I looked away. "You didn't miss much." Feeling had returned to my arms, but my legs remained unfelt. I then noticed that I had forgotten my crutches, and hoped that the others didn't notice. That, ot not notice the fact that I had frozen stiff for a few seconds. I made eye contact with Ray from the corner of my eyes, and looked down, showing him that I didn't have my crutches.

(Merry unbirthday, y'all! *drinks tea while wearing a huge green hat with a small card in the brim that read 10/6*)

"And Kyouko evolved into a Charmeleon!" Kon added happily, "Gary got attacked by on of those Rockets, and after his Kakuna evolved into a Beedrill and defeated the Rocket's Pokemon, the Rocket sent out a Snorlax. Then I came to Gary's rescue with Kyouko!" she said rather proudly, Kyouko imitating her action

"That's cool. Rahl, my Abra, I mean, Kadabra, was kidnapped by Rockets. We went into their building and fought a man named Giovanni." Ray pointed to Rahl, "He evolved as soon as we got out of there!" Ray exclaimed, a wide grin on his face. "My Jigglypuff also evolved!"

Gary frowned a bit and looked to Kiki, then to Ray. "You two don't look so good. What happened? What ever became of your ankle, Kiki?" Gary laughed as he saw Kon jump into position. "Charmeleon???" He looked at it proudly.

Jason huffed, annoyed. "Why do you people get so worked up over useless things? So what...they evolved. Pokemon do that...its natural just get a grip." He proceded to the corner where He and Gastly sat in solitude.

((By the way, thanks for updating the pokemon here, I appreciate it.))

Ray shot a glance at Kiki, seeing if there was any visible response playing across her face. Ray looked to where Jason was now sitting. "What's his problem?"

"Dunno. But he better stop acting like a jerk before I pound his face in." Kon said irritably. A flash of light came out of her knapsack and Ryuko, of course, was flopping around on the ground. Again. Kon heaved a heavy sigh and said "Ryuko. Why do you enjoy tormenting me so?" the Magikarp responded by flopping around more. Kon returned him and sat on one of the benches and noticed something "Hey Kiki. Where'd your crutches go?"

Gary looked up surprised. "Crutches?? How bad is your ankle??" He asked her worriedly. He shot a glare at Jason who seemed to glare back at the group. What IS his problem?

"I think it would be best if Kiki explained all this to you." He looked to Kiki, trying his best to silently tell her she didn't have to tell them what he knew.

"It's not that her ankles really bad." Kon said to reassure Gary, "She just needs to use 'em because they take some pressure offa her bad ankle." Kon knew no more about Kiki's condition than Gary, but the thing about the crutches she knew from personal experience.

I waved to Jason, who waved and smiled back. We'd had settled our differences.
I smiled to Ray, getting his glance. I looked to Gary, failing to hide my expression that read oops.....crap.
"Wh-what crutches?" I asked, getting more nervous. I glanced at Ray, a bit panicked. I didn't know what to do for once. I then shook my head, straightened up, and the look on my face vanished. "Those crutches? Er..." I looked away. I couldn't feel the pain, but they didn't know that. "I er....thought that I didn't need them. I mean, I'm doing fine now." My eyes told a different story, and if you concentrated, my smile was an obvious fake. If you concentrated hard enough.
I sighed. "I was tired of them, and must've forgotten them at the Rocket base. Well, good riddance..." I looked away, nervous again.

Ray gave Kiki a reassuring look, as well as a pat on the back. "So, where are we headed to next?"

Garyt hought. "Well, we might wanna beat the gym leader here. Or at least meet him." He shruggd. Then again I'm not even sure what type he uses." Gary stroked his chin and thought. "We might wanna get some info first though."

"Well, there's a water-type gym here." said Kon, "That'd be the perfect way to train Kiiro." she added, holding the Pikachu's Pokeball in her hand. "So, who will face the leader first?"

I laughed. "I'll give you some info." I laughed a bit more. "Sorry to burst your bubble Gary, but the 'he' is a 'she' and 'she' uses Water pokemon. I'm pretty much set with Hitoshi." I winked at the others. "I warned you Kon." I said, shaking my finger at her. At least, I thought I had.....

I raised my hand. "I'll fight her. I already know her, from my father's trips, so I will show you guys a demonstration." I smiled.

"I will!" Ray yelled, hoping to be the first to speak.

(People speaking at the same time. 'Tis confusing. Reminds me of the Pinsir incident.)

"Okay. This is bound to be confusing." Kon said, "So. Instead of calling out who'll go first. I think it'll be best to do rounds of Rock-Paper-Scissors." she added with a wise nod of her head.
