'Harmonic' Relations (Otsuyu)

[Chaotix010]

The air was filled with life and lights lit up the city like a Christmas special. Estelle felt like she was in a wonderland of entertainment, hearing music from almost every building she passed. Why had she not come to this place sooner? It was so beautiful! She might as well make a second home here. "My gosh, I love it! So lively and energetic! I'd dare say I was born to be here!"

During Estelle's fantasies, Trance kept quiet with a smile on her face. Her trainer may be happy most of the time, but to see her this excited pleased the Gardevoir like a true friend. Of course, Trance preferred to hear Estelle play music more so than others, but hearing different people play at least broaden her horizons. Actually, how many Gardevoir appreciated music like Trance? She didn't know, but she still took pride in it.

"Come on, Trance! We have to preform here!" The sudden change in mindset caught Trance off guard for a moment. Then again, when the pokemon thought about it, how could she not see it coming?

"So soon?" Trance asked Estelle. "We only recently came here, and after that long walk with a piano on you back, wouldn't you want to relax?" It's true. When they heard of Sonata City, the first instrument Estelle wanted to take with her was her new digital keyboard. She put it in a case, strapped it on her back and carried it the entire walk from the Western Waters. The fact they even made it here in one day surprised Trance.

Estelle gave a playful wink, one Trance knew too well. "You know I relax more when playing music." True, she does. Trance was cornered, and Estelle knew it. Whenever music was involved, the noble could not turn it away. "So let's find a good place where everyone can here us."

Trance was about to nod, but then she replayed what Estelle said in her mind. "Wait. What do you mean by 'us'?"

The noble giggled. Trance had no idea what she was about to get into. "I mean us, of course. I've noticed you've been playing the harmonica recently. You're really good at it."

The Gardevoir blushed immensely. She didn't know Estelle was watching when she was practicing playing the harmonica. Trance put a hand up while turning away slightly to try and hide her embarrassment, but it wasn't really helping. "What? Oh, no! I couldn't possibly-- That is-- I mean..." Actually, Trance was learning the harmonica so she could play with Estelle every now and then. Of course, she didn't plan on it being public, but with Estelle... Well, she should have seen THAT coming as well.

Estelle laughed a little louder this time as she watched Trance. Moments like this were rare, and Estelle can't help but feel a sense of accomplishment whenever she catches her Gardevoir off guard. "You'll do great! I'm sure of it!" Without warning, she grabbed Trance's arm and pulled her along. She knew the two of them were going to have fun.

They found a good spot to set up, near a relatively busy area that held a good amount of open space. Estelle pulled out her ipod and hooked it up to her piano. It worked without any difficulty, just the way she wanted it. Then she pulled out a harmonica and handed it to Trance who, hesitantly, took the instrument and looked it over. She was actually going to do this. A pokemon and her trainer, preforming together. It wasn't what Trance originally intended, but maybe would help Estelle be noticed. After all, that is what Estelle wanted, and what Estelle wants, Trance wants.

After Estelle set up her keyboard to fit the tune they were about to place, Trance got ready herself. Once Estelle hit those first few keys, Trance came in with her own playing. Not long after it started, a small crowd started to form. Trance started to get a little nervous, but one glance at Estelle's relaxed pose and smiling face made it melt away. How she was able to do that, Trance didn't know, but the pokemon could do one thing to keep herself relaxed. She closed her eyes and focused solely on the music. For the rest of the tune, the Gardevoir felt right at home. Her and her trainer, playing music together. That's all Trance needed to feel comfortable, and before she knew it, they were finished.

Next came the applause, something that normally happens during Estelle's public performances. At first, Trance was expecting herself to get some praise as well, but then came the comments. "How did you train your pokemon to do that?" "Teaching your Gardevoir to play the harmonica is genius!" "A pokemon that can play an instrument like that? That is one amazing trainer!" Trance's confidence quickly vanished. People seem to think a pokemon is helpless without a trainer.

"You all act like a pokemon can't learn on its own!" Trance looked at Estelle, a fiery anger appearing in her eyes. "Since you obviously don't know, I never trained Trance to play anything! She did this on her own whim. Her own free will! Pokemon are not pets, they're partners!" Angry look, growling voice... Yep, Estelle was mad. "Now, I'm going to let you try again. I believe someone deserves some praise."

Almost instantly, the comments changed. "That Gardevoir is amazing!" "I can't believe the pokemon taught itself how to play." "She must really love her trainer." Just as fast as her confidence disappeared, it was built back up stronger than before. Trance's eyes sparkled with encouragement as she glanced over the audience.

'So this is how Estelle feels,' Trance thought as she waved to everyone. Estelle smiled as she watched, happy for her Gardevoir like a true friend. They both could get used to this...

Unfortunately, the night was getting to them and they had to call off the rest of the performance. As the disappointed audience dispursed, Estelle and Trance packed up and started to search for a hotel to stay in. With a newfound confidence, Trance couldn't have been happier that night. There wasn't a ghost of a chance that could keep her from smiling tonight.

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu flying in the air on the back of Shinn, her Golurk she had bought from a store. she still did not like the idea of pokemon being sold like pets but she was able to save Shinn and gain a new friend. At first she was scared to fly around on Shinn but after a while she got over that and enjoyed her self. The little girl laughed with delight as they zoomed through the air, she felt so free up here. No humans to worry about, no worry's about anything really besides falling off Shinn of course. But Otsuyu hung on and sat in a spot where the wind was not all that bad. She had been up in the air for a long while and time seemed to fly by so fast. Before she knew it the sky had grown darker and air had gotten colder then it was before. Otsuyu started to shiver even though she was wearing her winter outfit. Thinking it it would be best to find a place to land. She looked around for the lights of a near by town. After a moment she saw the lights of Sonata city. " Shinn!! Over there, land just outside the city!" Otsuyu called and patted her friend. Shinn nodded, "Gol" he said as he started to turn and make his way to the outskirts of Sonata city, as he got closer the giant pokemon started to slow down as he started to descend. As he got closer to the growned the Golurk shifted his body so his feet would be under him. When he came to the ground his legs came out and he landed with a loud thud, that could have been mistaken for a small earthquake. Otsuyu smiled and hugged her friend. " Oh Shinn!! Your the best!! I love you so much!!!" Otsuyu cried out happily and hugged Shinn. Shinn blushed, " Golurk." he said. <" Love you two my little friend"> Even though Otsuyu was not able to hear his words she still got what he was trying to say. Otsuyu smiled and jumped on his hand when he brought it up to her. gently and slowly Shinn moved his hand to the ground and Otsuyu jumped off. She then looked up at her giant pokemon and smiled. " Ok Shinn time for you to rest!" Otsuyu said and returned the pokemon back to his ball. Soon after that Otsuyu called out Maggie her Mismagius. Without saying anything the two walked into the lively warm and welcome town. Otsuyu could not help but gasp at all the lights and music.. Even she thought it was a amazing. Well if she wanted to scare people that idea was gone as soon as it came. Otsuyu then started to walk down the streets with Maggie next to her. If anyone where giving uneasy glances because of Maggie, Otsuyu did not seem to notice or care. Just then the sound of music hit her ears. It was different then the music she had been hearing. Feeling drawn to it, Otsuyu followed her ears till she saw the ones who where playing the song. Otsuyu stayed back but listened intently. She started to get so drawn into the music her foot started to tap to the beat of the music. Otsuyu smiled and closed her eyes, well humans could do something she can enjoy. When the song came to a and Otsuyu opened her eyes and clapped. Though soon she started to frown. What?? Why where they just complementing the human?? The Gardevoir did just as good! If not better, but before she could say something the trainer yelled at the crowned and they suddenly changed their tones. Otsuyu rolled her eyes, " You humans should noy have to get yelled at to praise a pokemon's hard work... Ugh humans are so annoying!" Otsuyu said and smirked at the shocked looks and glares she got from the people in the crowed. " Oh?? how about I teach you some respect by having Maggie place a curse on all of you??" Otsuyu said as her face darkend and Maggie started to chant. The people eyes grew wide and they ran away. Maggie stopped chanting and laughed, Otsuyu also laughed as they ran. Man that never got old. after calming down Otsuyu blinked and looked for the girl and her Gardevoir. After a moment she spotted them, Otsuyu then started to follow them, not to talk to them really but to listen to anymore music the two may play. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Chaotix010]

Not finding any hotel nearby, Estelle and Trance kept wondering the streets. They may have taken a wrong turn somewhere, but it was a good chance for them to talk. In fact, Estelle was the first to take the opportunity. "So, have you considered trying any other instruments?"

Trance glanced at her trainer in wonder for a second before going into thought. The harmonica was the only thing she knew she could play, given that Gardevoir only have a total of six fingers. There's not exactly a lot of instruments she could play. However, if there were, would she? "I'm not sure," she replied. What other instruments could I play?"

The question slightly threw Estelle off. There were hundreds of instruments out in the world, but then she thought about the finger situation. Yeah, that actually did limit what could be done. However, after thinking for a moment, she got an idea. "What about an ocarina?"

Now THAT was one Trance hasn't heard. "Ocarina?"

The noble nodded in confidence as she pulled out her ipod again. "Yeah! It's a wind instrument like the harmonia, only it has holes you cover to change the pitch. There are different types, but I think you can play the six-hole version." She went through a few lists on her device before finally selecting one and holding it up to the side of Trance's head. "It sounds similar to this."

Instantly, it started to play, revealing a sound that was different compared to what most people hear. Estelle let it play enough to where Trance got the basic idea of the sound, then stopped it. "It sounds rather nice," the Gardevoir stated, being genuine.

"It does, but it's not in the best quality over my ipod. Plus, finding one is rather tough. Then again, that's only what I heard. If I made an order, I could probably get one for both of us." That last statement made both of the girls break out in a smile. Oh! We could play a duet!"

"Yes! That's just what I was thinking!" However, before to two could go any further, Trance got a slight shiver down her back. A strange feeling swept over her, one that she only got when near certain types of pokemon. Slowly turning around, Trance saw something that she has always been wary of. "Ghost..."

Hearing that word in her mind, Estelle followed her Gardevoir's line of sight, finding a girl and a Mismagius behind them. Have they been there long? They seemed to be focused on them, so maybe the want something? "Can we help you?" Estelle asked, being as friendly as possible.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu followed the girl and her pokemon without saying anything. Was it a little creepy she was stalking them? Yes, yes it was. But the little girl did not care. She just wanted to hear more music. For some reason she had felt touched by the music those two had played. Though she did stay far enough behind so they would not notice them nor could Otsuyu really hear what they where saying. When the girl took out a ipod and started to play a song the young girl smiled. It was pretty, though she bet it would have sounded better in person. She followed the two a little more as they talked but soon came to a dead stop. crud she had been spotted and by the looks that the Gardevoir was giving she was not to happy, as she seemed to look at Maggie... Great they where ghost haters after all... Otsuyu frowned at Trance but looked at her trainer when she poke to her. Otsuyu looked off to the side and crossed her arms. I.. I just wanted to say I liked the music you both played... I thought the both of you played very well... I just wanted to say that.." Otsuyu said as she turned and started to walkway. She knew when others did not want her around... It was always the same...... [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Chaotix010]

As soon as the girl started to walk away, Trance was actually the first to 'speak' up. "Please, wait!' She kept her thoughts open between the four of them, wanting to make sure everyone understood. "Forgive me, I don't mean to act that way. I just... I'm just not used to a Ghost Pokemon's presence, is all."

Estelle looked at her Gardevoir in surprise. This is the first time she's heard this since she has known Trance. Why was she never told? "That's new," Estelle spoke up. "When has this happened?"

"I'm not sure. I've been like this for as long as I can remember." That was the honest truth. Trance could never figure out why she was like this. Perhaps there's a part of her memory that was missing? Or was it just a 'type' thing? Some people have said that Ghost pokemon mess with a Psychic pokemon's senses, but is that really true?

"Really?" For a moment, Estelle almost forgot they were trying to keep that girl and Mismagius from leaving. Making a quick change in attention, the noble decided to ask something most preformers should. "Anyway, you said you liked our music? You sure there might not be something we could work on? Personally, I think I missed some notes on the chords. Would you agree?"

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu stopped in her tracks and winced a little. She was not used to a pokemon speaking into her mind. Maggie however did not wince and turned to looked at Trance. Otsuyu did the same, and gave a nod at the Gardevoir, she was not one to hold grudges if someone said sorry. Otsuyu and Maggie said nothing as Estelle and Trance spoke to each other about the issues Trance seemed to have with ghost types. heh a lot of humans where that way... But Trance was making a effort to be kind unlike most humans. For a moment Otsuyu thought the two had forgotten about her and Maggie. Oh well would not hurt her feeling much.. The young girl was about to turn away again as Estelle asked her a question. Otsuyu looked at Estelle and blinked, the young girl was unsure how to answer that. Seeing as she never judged music before. So to her untrained ears what they played was perfect. " I'm.. I'm not sure if I'm the best person to ask that. You guys sounded great to me, if you made a mistake I did not notice." Otsuyu said truthfully " From what I heard you both played perfectly." Maggie said to both Estelle and Trance with a small bow of her head. Otsuyu looked at Maggie and smiled before looking back over at Estelle and Trance. " So... how long have you been playing music?" Otsuyu asked. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Chaotix010]

Estelle giggled a bit at the girl's opening statement. Maybe she wasn't the best person to ask, like she said, but everyone has their own opinion. Even so, she came out with the 'sounded great to me' statement. It gave Estelle and Trance more confidence hearing that.

Then came the Mismagius. Estelle almost jumped when a clear voice came out of the pokemon's mouth. Trance noticed her trainer's surprise, but kept her laugh contained. However, the smile she had was clear as day. Maybe she should have warned her trainer that there were other pokemon capable of human speech. Well, there was no need now. Still, the fact that even the Mismagius gave positive feedback lifted their spirits some more.

"So... how long have you been playing music?"

Ah, now that was a good question. Estelle had to count up the days correctly to give an accurate answer. However... that was kind of tough. Might as well give an estimate. "For me, about five... almost six years now. However, I just started going public not too long ago." But then came a question Estelle has been wondering about. She knew Trance started practicing the harmonica, but she didn't know for how long. "What about you, Trance?"

Trance, however, knew the answer quiet clear. "Two months, one week, and five days ago." Trance seemed quite proud of it, actually. For someone to become rather skilled at an instrument in such a short amount of time is very impressive to most people. Speaking of people, though... "Oh! That reminds me. We still have yet to properly introduce ourselves. My name is Trance. The Gardevoir gave a slight curtsy. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Estelle forgot about introductions, which made the noble blush a bit. However, she blamed the fact they were caught up in the moment. "My name's Estelle. Estelle Nolarain. I do have two other pokemon with me, but they were tired so they're in their pokeballs right now." The trip up here actually did tire out Static and Quill quiet a bit. Estelle wouldn't be too surprised if they were asleep right now. Especially considering how late it is.

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu listen as the two said how long they had been playing. Well it seems they have devoted their time to Music, and it showed. Otsuyu did not have any skills that where very pleasing to others, her gifts only made her happy while others ran in fear. But that was alright.... Humans, who really needed them anyway? All Otsuyu need are her pokemon and her Mother back at home. But.. That was not really true.. She did make some human friends but they where not like the others. So.. Would this girl be any different? Or would she be like all other humans?? When the two introduced themselves the young girl was brought out of her train of thought. She blinked as she looked at Trance and Estelle, for a moment without saying anything. The young girl then nodded her head but did not smile. My name is Otsuyu Deshi, and this is my friend Maggie." the young girl said. Maggie bowed her head when her trainer introduced her. Pleasure." The ghost pokemon said with a smile. " I have other friends to, but one is to big to let out here. And most of them people would run away screaming if I let them out." Though Otsuyu did not seem sad about that, as a evil grin came to her face. How she loved to scare people... " You see... Most of my friends are ghost and dark type pokemon.. Though I do have one bug type too." Otsuyu said with a smile. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

The name sounded pretty exotic to Estelle's ears. In fact, she liked it. Maggie, on the other hand, sounded a little obvious for a Mismagius. But this girl looked to be about 12 or so, so it would only be natural if that was the case. However, the fact that Otsuyu called Maggie her friend put a smile on Estelle's face. Not just 'my pokemon' but 'my friend.' If only more people would do that... Wait! She said most of her pokemon are ghost and dark types? Well, that would explain the strange presence Trace felt. In fact, most people would turn and walk away at this information. However, Estelle wasn't like most people. She actually found the choice in pokemon rather interesting. In fact, that little smile Otsuyu gave both Estelle and Trance a clear message. However, the two had different opinions about it. "Estelle," Trance said only to her trainer, "Something tells me she's not that lady-like." "I know," Estelle replied in her mind. "In fact, I actually like it." As Trance did a double take on Estelle, the noble gave a smirk similar to the girl before them. Apparently, there was a side of Estelle coming out that not even Trance knew about. "You seem to enjoy it," Estelle stated to Otsuyu. "I'm guessing pranks are almost like a past-time to you?" The look in Estelle's eyes wasn't judgmental at all. In fact, they seemed approving.[/scrolly]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu blinked a little in shock when the older girl did not seemed scared she had ghost and dark type pokemon. Though by the looks that Trance was giving she seemed to be the uneasy one. Eh she was not going to blame the Gardevoir. Some pokemon just felt uneasy with certain types. When Estelle guessed she enjoyed it and pulling pranks was a fun past-time the little girl's grin grew more. As she looked into Estelle eyes she noted they where approving. Otsuyu started to feel she was going to start to like this girl. " Yes, though only to humans who deserve it. Though sometimes I play small pranks just to get a laugh sometimes.." Otsuyu said, though it was much more then that, For Otsuyu it was a way to protect her self from people who had hurt her.. teased her, in her mind it kept her safe from getting hurt. Otsuyu crossed her arms as she looked Estelle. Even though she seemed different and she did feel she could like her, the little girl still had trust issues with humans. As she had trust some only to be hurt by them. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Chaotix010]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/estelle.png);][atrb=width, 505][atrb=height, 295][atrb=style,border:0 black none,b,Table][scrolly:h(214),w(235),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:70px;margin-left:244px;color:#ffffff;)]Trance listened well to Otsuyu's words, but there was something about her that didn't seem simply mischievous. Fear, maybe? No idea. Maggie's presence wasn't exactly helping the Gardevoir out that much. Still, the pokemon wanted to figure out what made the girl so... different. Estelle, however, kept the conversation going. "Playing pranks the bad people, huh? That sounds like something I would have done several years ago. Never did get the chance to, however." Thanks to her father's rules, she didn't exactly get to do much of anything, mischievous or otherwise. It was a boring childhood indeed. "I wonder what I would have done?" [/scrolly]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu smiled and nodded proudly when Estelle guessed she mostly pranked bad people, though the meaning of bad may differ for the both of them. Anyone who where jerks, to others for silly reasons or for nothing at all. Needed to be taught a lesson, if no one stood up to the bullys who would? When Estelle said she would have pulled pranks years ago the young girl blinked but then smiled. The more she spoke to Estelle, the more Otsuyu found herself likening her. But it sounded like she never got the chance to. Well that did not sound like it was to much fun. Otsuyu sometimes played harmless pranks to get some laughs in. The young girl smiled and unfolded her arms and let them hang down at her sides. " I don;t know what you would have done... But if you want you are welcome to join me in a prank sometime." the young girl smiled at the thought of having a buddy to prank people with sometimes. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

[Chaotix010]

[atrb=style,background-image:url(http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/SojiRem/estelle.png);][atrb=width, 505][atrb=height, 295][atrb=style,border:0 black none,b,Table][scrolly:h(214),w(235),sy,as(padding:4px 0px 5px;margin-top:70px;margin-left:244px;color:#ffffff;)]Estelle gave a grateful smile. The idea of being able to do something like that was quite enticing. So much so, that Trance was starting to worry for her trainer. She was already more of a commoner than most nobles, not that she minds, but for her to engage in such mischievousness wouldn't exactly do well for her public reputation. After all, Estelle wanted to be known throughout Era as a great musician. "I would like that," Estelle replied, earning a roll of the eyes from Trance. "Estelle," Trance said openly for the other girls to hear, "I thought you were more of a lady than that." Estelle, however, just gave a simple shrug. "I guess I'm not." Trance narrowed her eyes, clearly not amused. [/scrolly]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] At Trance;s words Otsuyu folded her arms and glared at the pokemon. It seemed that someone disproved of pranks, also it seemed like Trance did not accept what her friend wanted to do. There was no harm in playing a small prank just for a laugh. And what was the whole lady thing about? Who cared about being a lady now days? " What.. You think I would do a huge prank with her? Also if she wants to do a prank that's her choice. You should not get angry for something like that.. heh I guess you don't think to highly of me.. That's fine I don't care what others think of me... Besides... Some people deserve to be pranked..." Otsuyu said as she thought of the kids who had teased her and did mean things just because she loved ghost type pokemon. She made them pay alright... Otsuyu then turned and started to leave. " If that's how you truly Trance I guess I will leave." Otsuyu said and Maggie followed along side her. Though she sighed, her young trainer got hurt and angry easly and always lashed out when someone said hurtful things.. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

Not being able to read thought patterns made it much harder to communicate for the Gardevoir. So, this must be what other humans feel like in this sort of situation: Humiliation. "Wait a moment!" Trance exclaimed, starting to go after them. "It's not you that I-- That is to say-- Uh... You're not-- I-I mean, I'm not... Estelle is..." Trance's unusual behavior actually caught Estelle off guard. She's never like this when talking to someone. In fact, she normally always has the right thing to say and/or the right way to say it. The noble wondered if it was the ghost Pokemon throwing her off or if it was something else. Or was it Otsuyu? Either way, she couldn't stand seeing her friend like this. "What she's saying is simply this," Estelle came in, staying calm for Trance's sake. "She doesn't know what to think of you, because we just met. She doesn't know your history, your intentions, and most of all your personality. However, she knows me for most of my life, and knows what my desires are. What Trance said is not of anything regarding you as it is regarding me." She gave a slight pause to breath, but the continued. "You see, I want to be known as a musician, as you may be able to guess. Trance just wants to make sure that when people look back at my history, there won't be anything to criticize me for." Looking back at Trance, she asked, "Is that not what you wanted to say?" Not saying anything, the Gardevoir just gave a simple nod. "But even she has to agree that she can take it a little too far at times." Another nod from Trance, but she kept her head down this time. "So you're just fine, Otsuyu. In fact, I still want to pull a prank with you sometime. But until then, I need to ask a question." Walking to Trance's side once more, Estelle then continued. "Do you know where we can find an Inn? We're a little lost." [/scrolly]

[Baroness Charmissey]

[scrolly:h(230),w(390),sy,as(padding:4px;margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;)] Otsuyu stopped but did not turn around when Trance called out to her. It seemed the Gardevoir was having a hard time gathering her thoughts, and trying to find the words she wanted to say. The little girl did not turn around and was about to take another step when Estelle spoke up. Otsuyu stayed though she closed her eyes as she took in the older girl words. Oh so Trance was just worried that others would look down on Estelle if she went on a pranking spree or did something bad. Heh that did not mean much to Otsuyu seeing she did not care what people thought of her. But she did get the love Trance had for her trainer and just wanted to look out for her. Otsuyu then gave a nod to show she was understanding what the two where trying to say. Otsuyu then turned around to look at the two of them. She blinked when Estelle said she wanted to ask something. Otsuyu braced herself just in case it was something about herself. And sighed when Estelle just asked if she knew where a Inn, Otsuyu shook her head. " No I don't. This is my first time here.... But Maggie can look around for you." the young girl said and looked at her friend. Maggie smiled and nodded, " Sure, I don't mind taking a look around." the ghost type said and she then flouted off into the night. Otsuyu wanted to go with Maggie she did not like her friends going off my themselves. But Maggie was strong so she could take care of herself. Maggie made her way through the town above it. So that way she would not scare anyone as she looked for a inn. But she did not get very far when she heard sounds of humans picking on someone. the ghost pokemon blinked and looked around, yep there was a group of boys picking on one timid looking boy. Maggie frowned, it was like when the children picked on Otsuyu. Well if Estelle wanted to pull a prank this would be a good time to do it. The ghost then rushed back to Otsuyu, Trance and Estelle. When she got back she looked over at Estelle. " You said you wanted to pull a prank, well I found a good reason. A block away a group of boys are picking on someone. I say its time those boys get scared into behaving better." Maggie said with a dark chuckle. Otsuyu's eyes grew wide at the news but she soon smiled darkly. " Lets go have some fun shall we?" the young girl said and took off in a run as Maggie lead the way. When they got there Otsuyu hid and started to think of a plan. Though she looked over at Estelle, " So.. Any ideas??" Otsuyu asked. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]

However, once Maggie explained the situation, the noble's eyes widened as well as her Gardevoir. Neighborhood bullies, is it? "What do you say, Trance?" "Uh..." Trance didn't get a chance to respond, though. Once Otsuyu and Maggie started running, Estelle went with them. Trance sighed, but decided to go with, wanting to supervise and to make sure nothing went out of hand. Once they caught up, Estelle waited for Otsuyu to come up with a plan. Instead, she was asked herself. "Me?" At first, she was a little stunned, but knowing what was at stake, the noble went to work. A group to prank... They could pick them off one by one, but what about the victim? She didn't want him in the crossfire. Maybe if they could get the group distracted, she could lure the victim away from it all. Then they could go all out and scare them. Wait... That's it! "Trance!" The Gardevoir noticed her trainers thoughts and listened. "I have an idea, but I need you take the lead." Trance's eyes were with shock. "Me?! But why me?" "Because you're able to speak into minds. If you can shake them up a bit, the final scare should finish the job. However, can you make your eyes glow like when I ask you to make a Trick Room?" "I... Yes. I can." "Okay then, but there's still one more thing." Turning her attention to Otsuyu, Estelle asked, "I have an idea, but does any of your Pokemon know how to make a good Scary Face? I believe it's actually a move they can use." [/scrolly]

Though blinked when she asked if any of her pokemon could use scary face. Otsuyu gave a weak smile, it seemed Estelle did not know much about ghost pokemon. Only a few if any could know that move. She had one ghost that could.. But she was not the type to go around scaring people... If anything Yamask was just a pet, Though Akora could use the move and she could make herself look like a ghost. " Sadly none of my ghosts can use that move say for one... But she wont be of any use to us. Akora is not a ghost but she take a ghost form and use the move." Otsuyu said ad called out Akora the Zorua. " Zoura!" she said happily though blinked when she saw Estelle and Trance. " Akora we need your help, there are a group of kids picking on someone. follow Estelle orders ok? the move we need is scary face." Otsuyu saud. Akora smiled and nodded her head. She then looked over at Estelle and waited to be told what to do. [/scrolly] [bg=776fa1]
