[center][b]Amara[/b][/center] She physically jumped [i]off[/i] of Beast's back when Spike came crashing in, yelling things at her. Her eyes went wide as she stared up at Beast's back where Spike now sat. She tried her hardest not to cry, but to no avail. The little azurill sobbed and in doing so, soaked everyone within 5 feet of her in her tears. After a few minutes, she stood up and waddled over to Beast's leg to wrap her tail around him and cry into his leg. Why did this kind of stuff always happen to her? --- [center][b]Luke[/b][/center] [b]"You most certainly are a handful. Both literally and figuratively. Those tails are everywhere!"[/b] He told her, jokingly, hoping to god she didn't take it as a fat joke. He sat up slowly as she told him about himself. He really could only agree. His patience wasn't the best which made him wonder how he ever became the Alpha. Tough luck, he guessed. Probably wouldn't be long before someone else came and tried to take his place. Luke looked down at the ground as Akira finished. He looked up at her with a smile on his face. [b]"You know... Despite your temper there are a lot of things I [i]do[/i] like about you."[/b] He started, sliding around her, looking her up and down. [b]"Despite your temper, you're one of the most capable women I know. Not that I know very many."[/b] He told her, sliding on. [b]"Your tails do something to me, I could never explain. You're adorable and so smart. You make me feel invincible and strong. And..."[/b] He trailed off, getting closer to her. [b]"You're one of the only ones that has ever been able to return my gaze."[/b] He finished, putting his nose on hers. [b]"Yes, I know who you are. And I wouldn't change you for the world."[/b] He told her and looked into her eyes. [b]"Besides, I don't think Amara likes anyone besides Beast. Maybe if you took the time to try and get her to talk to you, she'd warm up. I think you two could be good friends."[/b] Luke explained, his eyes softening as he looked at his mate. --- [center][b]Rin[/b][/center] Something about this pokemon set Rin on edge. His fur stood straight up and he let his teeth show, growling at the other poochyena. Why did this guy look so much like Rin? He didn't like it. And he didn't like how casual Vee was about it. Sure, letting Maw come was one thing. Letting a new poochyena come along? It felt weird. His nose didn't like it. The pokemon didn't smell like a poochyena. Rin jumped out in front of Vee, separating her from the strange pokemon. [b]"It doesn't smell right. That's not a poochyena..."[/b] Rin growled, still watching the fake poochyena. One wrong move...
