[Spruce] I finally wake up from my weird dream that had me stealing the void crystal, for some weird reason, which, of course, led to the general area in my dream becoming the distortion world that I've heard about in stories, and notice that I somehow ended up in my room when I fell asleep in the nurse's room. I blame that little bit of weirdness on sleepwalking and continue on, though, something was off... somehow, I was the first pokemon on my team to actually wake up... I mean, usually, I'd be the last one to wake up, and yet... here I was waking up before everyone else. I still slept in, as it seems like I've missed the morning greeting, or whatever it was called, and headed off to the nurse's room before getting a mission. Celes was there, and, as expected, asleep. She looked a lot better, though, and the nurse was asleep for some reason. I walk over to her, and think [i]I really hope she's okay... I hope she's well enough to go on a mission with me. I don't want to leave her behind.[/i] I then take a seat near her, and wait for her to get up, hoping that she'd be ready to go, or at least somewhat ready to go, once she does. I was waiting patiently, mainly due to the fact that M wasn't even awake at this point, and, something seemed a little off about him anyways. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but, ever since last night, something's just been different about him... maybe it was emotionally, but, it could have been physically, heck, maybe it was both. --- [Anthony] I yawn and reform as the sun rises, and notice that everyone else, including Terra and Daniel, were fast asleep. [i]Oh yeah, I almost forgot that I'm an early riser.[/i] I think as I look around the area. The altar that Hex was hiding behind seemed to have some sort of weird, grey crystal on it, but, it didn't seem all that amazing, and what might have been weirder was the scream I heard from inside the cave. I made my way to the entrance of the cave, and notice a pichu running from a kadabra, who seemed angry at the little guy, and was shooting psywave, or some other psychic-beam move at the innocent victim. While I couldn't tell what he was angry about, I knew that something was wrong here... but, I couldn't bring myself to side with someone who was beating up on someone else who was clearly under their level, and obviously much younger than they were. "Hey! Stop picking on that little guy!" I shouted at the kadabra, who turned his attention towards me after that, and he shot another one of those beams at me, however, Daniel, who, I assume woke up from my shouting, got in the way of the attack, with it just getting absorbed into him without leaving so much as a mark. "Um... I'm not going to let you do that, mister kadabra," Daniel then says as the pichu takes his spot, hiding behind me. I didn't really expect much else from the little rodent pokemon, and I attacked the kadabra with a tackle. I had to leave my spot to do that, and that make the pichu freak out for a moment. --- [Bonnie] I mumbled and grumbled a bit for being woken up and basically dragged to the morning greeting, and I answered as such until I heard William mention the mission that I had in my bag. My eyes widen just from him bringing that mission up, and I say "NO! nonononono. Not today, not ever, this mission's just too much, alright? We'll get killed in there, um, I'm just making sure that no other rookies like us take that mission and run off to their death," I then run away from William, and look around for another spot to hide the mission. I decide on hiding the mission in the middle of someone's diary. This diary had a picture of a sunflower on it, so it kinda looked like a book that nobody on the team would ever want to read... that, and I made sure to hide it in the middle, not the start or the end, where they could just open it up from either side and find it... no, they'd have to dig deep in that diary to find that mission. I then ran back to William and add "Also, I think I actually lost it, um, see, I ran off to go find it so I could show you just how outmatched we are this time, but I couldn't find it," I then head off to the mission board, and say "But, hey, no big deal, right? We can just pick a mission off of this board," I then look around at the available missions, however, unfortunately, none of them seemed to catch my eye... none of them promised any sort of exciting adventure in some far off land... but, I suppose that was just the order of the day for this rookie team.
