[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]The green haired man stared at the pillar before him. He'd set out for the day to travel around the desert while Kero had some sort of talk with someone or something. Right then and there, Alvaro Gean couldn't, for the life of him, remember whoKero had said he had been going to see, yet he decided he'd ask again if given the chance later when he headed back to Kero's mansion. Anyways, he was now staring... at something.... Alvaro was quiet as he stared at the pillar and then down at the map that was given to him. Had he really gotten lost... the pillar wasn't even on the map...er...was it? Alvaro looked down at the map a moment and then up at the pillar once more.... After a few seconds, Alvaro took out a pokeball and relesaed Sora, his Absol whom he had hatched and then made a motion for her to follow him. Upon finally coming directly to the base of the pillar, Alvaro made another motion to which Sora looked startled. "Please?" Alvaro tried with a quiet smile. Sora was quiet for a few seconds before finally sighing and standing herself directly next to the pillar. Alvaro then carefully climbed onto her back and then stared through a window. Looking downwards, Alvaro found that... well... something was down there. After a few seconds, he pulled himself up as best he could just whe- "AAAHHHH!!!!!!" Too late. The gren haired man had fallen head first through the window and came crashing down onto the very bottom floor of the library. In the few seconds that his body hit the floor, Alvaro blacked out. Well... this wasn't the start of a good day now was it? [/scrolly]

The heatwave usually didn't sit well with most pokemon but a Shiny Ninetails raced through the sand followed by a Shiny Purrloin. They were looking for shiny objects to take back to their Trainers. Stopping they looked back to see the Twins clad in white tank tops and jean shorts. They were jogging side by side laughing while they tried to catch up with their pokemon. The sand was just so squishy.

Aisla kicked herself into a sprint while she was closely followed by her sister. Grinning she readjusted her pack and kept going. Panting she slowed as she spotted a tower with an absol near it. Odd she didn't think Absol's could be found out here. Slowing to a walk she moved closer trying to see where its trainer was. "Hello? Any one here?" With no response she looked to the absol and smiled. Waving she took the time to catch her breath. Why would some one just leave an absol out here?

Allis slowed to a halt next to her sister. Panting she looked around while Asuka her Shiny Purrloin ran over and noticed the absol for the first time. Ain stopped next to Aisla then looked around. Allis moved slowly after she caught her breath toward the absol. Speaking softly and gently she held her hand out. "Hello. Where's your trainer at?" Asuka wasted no time though. She had spotted the window. Looking about she made sure Ain had seen her before jumping up into the window and looking down. Noticing the person unconscious she jumped down and inspected him. Blinking she grabbed his clip and tried to take it. It was rather shiny and she wanted it. Letting it go she looked about as she thought about the punishment she would receive. Shrugging she tugged on the clip again.

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Sora was scared... extremely scared. She had just watched the man whose face she had first seen upon her hatching fall through a window, and she had no idea what to do. She was still young! She... she was scared.... Suddenly a sound hit her ears, and she found herself looking sideways and staring at the girls and their pokemon. Who-... who were they.... As the girl moved towards her, Sora found herself backing rather quickly looking towards the pillar, the window... then back at the girl and feeling a growl hit her throat. What if they hurt him? But... but he could already be hurt....She.... she was scared... what if... what... what if... Looking towards the pillar again, she whimpered in her throat and then looked from the girls to the pillar to the window and then back at the girls. "Sol..." she said quietly. Alvaro's form was laid out flat on the ground, and even as the clip was slowly pulled from his hair, he didn't regain consciousness. The clip itself came free, and Alvaro's head shifted a little, yet that was all. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis blinked as she watched the Absol move away from them. Keeping an eye on her she signalled her sister to look around. The trainer must been off someplace or hurt. Watching her she looked up the tower and spotted a window. Maybe her trainer had squeezed in? "Alright. I'll take a look. If you want Aisla can give you a boost. I'll check for your Trainer sweety." Standing up she looked up at the window and back up a few yards. Stretching slightly she ran forward and used her muscles to leaped up to the window. Grabbing the ledge she pulled herself up nimbly and slipped inside. Landing on the floor she spotted a male and her purrloin. Asuka hid the clip she had grabbed and purred gently as if she had been trying to wake him up.

Aisla took her sister's cue and walked around the tower trying to see if she could find anyone. When she got back to Allis she watched her sister jump up and through the window. "Alrighty. Want to go in?" Moving up close to the Absol she motioned up to the window to show she would hoist her up. Ain looked around then leaped up into the window and down onto the floor below. Spotting the green haired boy she stuck her cold wet nose in his ear. It usually woke Aisla up when she was sleeping. Though why would anyone want to sleep in a place like this. Spotting everything she raced down the hall to see what there was. Books and relics. Sweet! Gasping she tripped over a ill-placed chair and went sprawling. Hopping up she moved it back and walked this time to look around.

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Sora stared a moment at the girl and then watched as she entered the way that Alvaro had come and then looked-..... at the sister? Who was saying if she wanted to go in. Sora breathed inwards and stood up on her back legs pressing her front legs on the tower and finding that she was still about a foot too short give or take. Looking back to the girl, she sighed out a "Sol..." Alvaro grimaced a little in his unconsciousness from the nose in his ear but still didn't regain said consciousness. Instead, his mind continued to flash between sleep paralysis and actual dreams. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Aisla smiled and waited for her to measure it out then look at her. Patting her head gently she slipped her hands under her back paws and hoisted her up the rest of the way. Once she was in Aisla backed up a bit and leaped up grabbing the ledge and pulled herself up and in. Twisting she landed on her feet near Allis. Spotting the green haired guy she blinked and shook her head. Spotting all the book and relics she gasped. Leaving the guy in Allis' hands she took off after Ain to find a book to read. What her father wouldn't give for this location. Slowly she filed away the coordinates for her next report back.

Allis shook her head at her sister and pulled her bag off. Pulling out a salve jar she opened it up and smiled. It was a very strong mint smell. Slowly she wafted it under his nose trying to wake the guy up. From the view she figured he probably fell in. Looking about she wondered if their were books on medicines and herbs. She would have to figure out how everything was categorized. "Wakey Wakey green man." Well she didn't know his name and his hair was green.

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Sora had managed to get in and had dropped rather sharply before managing to stand fully. Her eyes grew in horror as she found Alvaro laying there, and in another moment, she had moved over quickly to him nudging at his hand whose nails, though slightly chipped at the moment, were still neon green. <Alvaro.. Al...Varo....> she breathed worriedly. Alvaro slowly opened one eye as he found himself smelling something.... ._. Oddly like preservative...? After a moment, his vision cleared from its murkiness and he found himself staring at a girl. "Eh?" he finally exhaled with. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis watched as the Absol nudged her trainers hand. "Don't worry just a little fall." She smiled gently and pulled her balm away as he started to wake up. Capping it she put it away in her bag. As his eyes popped open she waited for them to clear before she said anything. "Next time made you should have your pokemon go first. You really scared her." Standing up she held out her hand to help him up.

Aisla at that moment came running back with several books on ninja techniques. "Look Look Look!! I found stuff we don't know yet." Ain was following close behind and caused Aisla to trip though she kept the books in her hands. Allis laughed at her twin. "And they call me the Klutz."

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Alvaro was... surprised to see the young girl but took the hand anyways without much of a second thought on the matter. If she was willing to help, then she was willing to help simple and say to understand at least to him. After standing up, he finally found the words on what he wanted to say about Sora. His eyes traveled over to the Absol who had backed up a bit to allow her trainer to stand and then smiled a little. "Ah.. sorry Sora..." Alvaro half smiled before rubbing his neck a little. Upon hearing someone behind him, he turned and saw yet another little girl running over, and she... appeared almost exactly like the first ._. Were they... twins? "Ah... hello both of you... my name is Alvaro... Alvaro Gean," he smiled giving a light, if admittedly somewhat stiff, bow to them both. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis smiled and helped him up as soon as he took her hand. "Ello. I'm Allis Tsuki. Pretty sure you guessed already but we are twins." Keeping her grip light and easy like a normal girl's strength. Once he was up she let his hand go and walked over to her sister to see how she was doing. Asuka looked around at them all before she grabbed the clip and took off running with it. Slipping between two book cases she made sure none of the others could see he before she started playing with the clip. She didn't want Aisla or Allis making her give it back. It was shiny. She didn't like this Training thing. She didn't want to do it anymore.

Aisla smiled and waved it off as she balanced the books on her head carefully. "Hello! Nice to see you awake. I'm Aisla Tsuki." With that said she walked off to find a nice place to read. Ain looked at the male and gave him a pokemon grin. Swishing her tails in greeting she walked after Aisla she wanted to read one of the books too! Suddenly a light appeared from Aisla's bag and Simi let herself out along with Koro the Shiny Dratini. Koro moved along the book cases once he figured out where he was. Though he did wonder how they found this place. Simi, Aisla's Sableye, walked over to Alvaro and studied him. Sure that Aisla or Allis could take him she grinned at him in the creepy way Sableye's had.

[Jay]

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Alvaro's eyes darted from one twin to the other, and soon enough, he could tell the fine details of them apart. Given what he had done for a living, Alvaro had become rather critical when it came to details. After a few seconds, he found that someone else was staring at him as well, and slowly his eyes lowered and found themselves looking at the Sableye. As the ghost/dark type grinned at him, Alvaro found himself grinning back. "You're a rather interesting specimen of Sableye," he half smiled after a moment. It reminded him of Undertaker's pokemon... as well as his own. After a few seconds, he looked up again at the twins. "So what were you two doing down here?" the green haired man said looking upwards for a moment before back at the two. His mind was running over quite a few things about them, really. He had never worked on twins, though apparently Undertaker had at one point. However, he had seen such people that shared such perfect similarities, and Alvaro was now trying to remember he exact name for such twins. Oh! Silly him.. Identical twins, hah... Silly silly.... [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis smiled as he seemed to finally notice Simi staring at him. She had a tendency to creep some people out. She was glad he found her amusing. Simi nodded in approval of his smile and followed after her Trainer to see if she could read to her like when she was little. Allis looked over at Alvaro again as he started asking questions. "We were taking a shot cut to the Oasis. Then from there we were going to the Desert Palace." TO any one it would sound like they were just sight seeing instead of gathering information.

Aisla grinned at Simi and found a nice big chair. Sitting down she pulled Simi into her lap. Carefully she started reading aloud to the Sableye. Styxx appearing out of no where climbed up next to Aisla and listened too. If anything they could learn a thing or two from the books.

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]And that was exactly what Alvaro took it for, at the end of it. Ah, theyw er travelers too then. That was nice~ After a moment, he found himself laughing lightly and nodded his head a bit. "I see I see I see," he answered back with a light smile before allowing his eyes to fully look around the large library. It was then that he realized exactly how far he had fallen, and Alvaro found himself breathing outwards rather quietly. Good grief... he was doing so much damage to himself lately, wasn't he? However, Alvaro could only laugh at himself again. "This place is huge..." captain State the Obvious A Lot stated aloud as he found himself looking around and twisting his form around to see all sides of the library. I wonder if they have medical books... came to Alvaro's mind, yet that was instantly pushed away as he figured that the library had to be insanely old and all those books should technically be out dated anyways. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis smiled as he took her answer the way she had meant him too. "Yeah it is. Well I'm going to go find a book." She really wanted to see if the place had any other herbal remedies she didn't know. Waving to him she headed off down a random book aisle to find out how things were categorized. Figuring out the order she followed the aisles until she found the sections on herbs and healing medicines.

Aisla finished the first couple of chapters and started discussing the way to modify some of the moves. They would have to try them out later when they weren't near the guy. Once she was done discussing the moves she started in on the fourth chapter.

Odd keystone
Vulpix - F
__________

Sitting on one of the many book shelves, being used a book stopper, an odd keystone looking object sat. Not too far away from that book shelf, curled up on the bottom shelf, a small Vuplix slept. If one looked closely they would notice that she only had two, rather pale coloured tails. It was a sign that she was very young and her tails had not yet completely split or gained their full colours.

[Jay]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,498,true]

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Alvaro nodded his head a little at the girl and then started to walk around the library rather slowly. Finally coming to the shelf, he noticed the Vulpix first and seemed to stare at the very young pokemon for a good few seconds. He knew what the tails meant given what he had learned of pokemon anatomy, and after a few seconds, he looked back before walking towards it rather quietly. Sora seemed to watch Alvaro walk off and sighed to herself before starting to look around. She'd keep an eye on her green haired man but would also learn about these girls, if she could. Following Allis, the Absol kept looking around rather carefully. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Allis blinked and looked to see the Absol had followed her. "Hello. Would you like to learn about Herbal Remedies too?" Smiling kindly she pulled down a few herbs and herbal remedy books she sat down near the bookcase. Flipping open the remedies book she watched the Absol to see is she would come and listen.

Ain looked about and scented the air. Catching the scent of another Vulpix her tails twitched. Excited she bounded away from Aisla and looked about. Spotting her she blinked and watched the Green haired man walk back and forth. Blinking she looked toward the shelf. What was that? Walking close she eyed the keystone. What did it do? Gently she grabbed it with her teeth and pulled it off the shelf. Who could tell her about it? Blinking she looked around to see if there was an older pokemon about who could tell her about it.

[Lady Leaf]

Odd keystone
Vulpix - F
Gliger - M
__________

For a slight moment the young vuplix stirred, lifting one of her paws to rub her nose before setting it back down in front of her. She didn’t open her eyes so it was hard to tell if she was actually awake or not.

When the odd Keystone was picked up, a few of the books it was holding up toppled over but nothing else seemed to happen yet.

It seemed the sound of the books toppling over disturbed another pokemon. Within moments of the sound a Gligar quickly swooped down from a shelf and landed onto a near by hand rail. His slim eyes were glaring around the room looking a bit annoyed.

[Jay]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,498,true]

[atrb=background,http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a190/lilDiablo_/alvaromid2.jpg] [scrolly:h(196),w(410),sy]Finally bending down to the Vulpix, Alvaro reached out a hand to stroke the small creature rather gently. He wouldn't.... mind having a Vulpix. It was a rather pretty pokemonn in general, and its evolutions were known to be very pretty as well. "Well aren't you pretty....." he hummed a little to himself. The green haired man didn't even notice the Gligar that had appeared. [/scrolly]

[Snow Soul]

Ain blinked and looked about before catching sight of the glaring Gligar. Putting the keystone on the ground she lowered her ears slightly. <Sorry I didn't mean to disturb you.> She really didn't. She had found the thing and she wanted to know more about it.

Asuka looked about checking for Allis or Aisla before she pulled the clip out and started playing with it. She smacked it and sent it sailing across the floor. Blinking she raced after the shiny clip.
