For some reason, M seemed focused on the solosis, who still had his reflect and light screen up. I could almost swear that the thing was sticking its tongue out at me. Earlier, M scolded John to keep his head down, and John was going to say something, probably something to scold M, but decided against it. The gastly seemed hurt pretty badly from Kamina's flame charge, and decided to use lick on him, instead of me this time, leaving me to think for a moment. Unfortunately, while I was thinking, the solosis used recover, healing whatever damage it took from Celes' swift attack. I then recall what I said about leech seed, and just how helpful it would be in this situation, and I try to remember how Vine used it on my adventures with him. The memory was vague, but, I somehow eventually managed to pull it off, apparently surprising the solosis as the attack, which was known to miss when you really needed it to hit, actually hit, and planted its seeds on the thing, which quickly came into effect, draining the solosis' health, and actually healing me somewhat. John then shouted "Do you guys usually have this much trouble with this area? I mean, are you sure you're qualified for this job!?" I decided against attacking John, despite the fact that, at least to me, he had a very punchable face right now.

William, despite the fact that we JUST completed a very exhausting mission, where nothing sounded better than bed right now, decided to run off to this other mission. "William...!" I try to shout before he races off to buy items and head over to this 'Mt. Pinnacle' despite us having never been there before. I finally catch up to him, and shout "We JUST got back from a mission, one in a DESERT where I almost DIED! Don't you think it'd be nice if we had some sort of, I dunno, BREAK in between the missions!? We'll do this one tomorrow, but I really can't go on another mission right now," I then head back to Treasure Town, grumbling to myself and working under the impression that William was actually going to follow me. If he didn't, then it's his funeral... I couldn't even go back to save him if I wanted to thanks to the condition that last mission left me in. [i]Yeesh... he really needs to curb his enthusiasm... though, I think this is the first time he's ever been this excited to go on a mission, as in, ever. What the heck's wrong with him today?[/i] I think as the guild gets closer to me. I enter the place, and head straight to the dining room, saying "Hey... you guys. Do you want dinner? I think they're serving it right now," when I pass by my teammates. I then sit down in my usual spot, though, it seemed a little empty now that William was either slow, or off on a mission by himself, of course, that didn't change my appetite, and I ate pretty much whatever happened to be the closest to me at the time... I didn't know or even care what it was, but I ended up eating all of it in a matter of seconds... well, okay, not really seconds, but I was pretty dang hungry.

[Anthony]

I continue using absorb as Martin continues using tackle on me, with my absorb somehow showing some signs of improvement since the last time we fought... as was obvious on Martin's face whenever I used the move on him. Martin, however, still had enough time to sneak in an oran berry every now and then just to make sure he doesn't faint... which left us in the same stalemate as we were in back at Beach Cave. It seemed like so long ago, and this was bringing back all those old memories. "Hey, Anthony," Martin says to me as he uses tackle, not hurting me quite as much as he used to, with him continuing, flinching as I use absorb on him "W-where'd you get that stupid-looking helmet from?" I simply glare at him. He didn't need to know that information, and my new helmet looked awesome, not stupid... right? All I did say was "Even if it looks stupid to you, it just so happens to make me resist dragon-type moves," Martin laughs at that thought, and continues with another tackle, with me using absorb to reheal the damage I took from his attack. He then uses yet another oran berry on himself, healing the damage HE took from my absorbs... basically resetting everything, again. "Anthony, you should give up. You're outmatched! Can't you see I'm doing so much better than you? I mean, look, I could literally do this all day, and probably will until you start using struggle, and killing yourself for me!" I mumbled something, not wanting to give up, and he continues with "Y'know, you can rejoin my team. You're always welcome, and I can forgive your, ahem, horrible attempt at back-stabbing me... best friends, remember, Anthony?" I look to the side, and mumble again, and he asks "What was that?" I then finally answer with "I'll never join you! You lied to me! You're no friend of mine, you're just another criminal!" Apparently shocked, Martin, that is, after another round of tackles and absorbs happens says "How could you say that to me? Aren't you my best friend? Haven't we been friends long enough to overcome this petty difference?" I used this 'speech' as an advantage as I snuck in another absorb, which caused him to use another oran berry... as if he had some sort of 'auto berry' ability, or something...
