One fateful day, deep within the cold depths of the great ocean, the cold silence was suddenly shattered! The sea began to thrash about with great fury, with water bubbling and gushing about and waves crashing into each other. Suddenly, the silence returned, and all settled down to be peaceful and silent. BOOM!!! Magma came shooting out of the water, straight into the sky, showering lava and debris into the deep water. The sea exploded with heat, earth began to rise and conquer and defy the sea. All was a mighty chaos, whirling and swirling, dashing up and down, and burning with anger!

The fury slowly became silenced, and the ocean became quiet once again, calmed by the might of time. But the ocean was now broken by five large mounds, sitting there, simmering away. These were the Maiden Islands.

And years later, a maiden sits by her windowsill, waiting for her dear husband. Waiting in her corner of sadness, yearning and aching for the day the man she loved returned to her warm embrace. And she sits in her sadness, despair slowly creeping into her heart, and rendering her a lost soul. And to deliver the final blow, she discovers the truth---the truth that her husband is dead---and she is utterly lost forever, claimed by the abyss of no hope. The maiden grows old, and her soul, her heart, her mind, her spirit, are all lost.

And yet later, several youths are sent on a mission to the Maiden Islands, to discover the hidden corners, reveal the untold secrets, cast light upon the shadows, and attempt to recover the maiden's lost soul.


~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~


You land on the beach of Mistonnence Dragart, the center island. Some try to enter the island itself, but as they reach the edge of the beach and prepare to enter it, they are suddenly paralyzed. It takes them a few hours to recover, as some try to access the islands from other areas. So far, the only place on Mistonnence Dragart you can reach is the beach. It seems the maiden is feeling mischievous. You will need to find several gems and diamonds along your journey to be able to enter the island and bypass the shield.

Your goal: To access Maiden's Peak in the center of the island. You will need the Mystic Pearl, found on Innocence Island, the Element Emerald on Art Island, the Volcano Ruby on Dragonair Island, and the Frozen Diamond on the Island of Mist to enter.

The Maiden Islands

Mistonnence Dragart
Mistonnence Dragart is the center, and heart of the islands. It is the largest island, and within the middle of it all, lies the immense, gigantic Maiden's Peak, the tallest mountain among the islands. It is still an active volcano. The island is laden with forest, silent and eerie, for the maiden has forbidden mankind to ever set foot on the island. The island sits there, waiting, waiting, waiting for the day it is set free...

You will start out here, on Welcome Beach.

Remember: You can only access the rest of this island if you have all four gems.

Island of Dreams
The Island of Dreams, recently discovered, is a very mysterious place, filled with a mystic aura. It has a dream-like environment; as you will probably notice by the clocks floating in the air. Only the bravest of travelers are allowed on this Island and there is only way to enter it. Here you can find the Destiny Jewel. Friendly pokemon are not likely to be encountered on this island, as most of them have fallen under the influence of the YamiKairyu. The Pokemon types that can be found on the Island of Dreams are Psychic, Dark, Ghost, Normal, Flying, Grass and Dragon.

Pixie Island
Legends say that, 2000 years ago, a group of sorcerers came here in search for rare magical creatures known as pixies. While it's not clear whether they found them or not, this island was for many years home to large communities of sorcerers and was often used as a magic training field. That era is long gone, but some of its effects can still be felt in the present and, while most of the current inhabitants of the island are civilians, it's said that some sorcerers can still be found out there.
The island is hidden by a spell and its location changes, so you'll need a Destiny Jewel to get to it.

Where you CAN go now:

Dragonair Island
Located to the Northwest of Mistonnence Dragart, is a long, slender island, uncannily shaped like a serpent. It is full of mountains, and within them, you may find hidden and wonderful surprises! On this island, enchanted with mysticism, you will encounter Fire, Dragon, Rock, Steel, Water, and Electric Pokémon, but beware as these Pokémon are dangerous. Seek the Volcano Ruby here.

Innocence Island
Now, fly across the sky to the northeast, and approach Innocence Island. When you arrive, you instantly detect a stench of filth and darkness, yet all you see is pretty, innocent forest. Rivers, lakes, marshes, and bogs have silently crept into the pure island, ravaged it, and stay there like a parasite, fouling it up. You will encounter Water, Grass, Dark, Poison, Normal, Flying, and Psychic types on this strange island. Here you will find the Mystic Pearl.

Art Island
Venture into Art Island, lying in the southwest corner, sitting there, awaiting the first humans to arrive. It seems as if it was a bird, gracefully floating over the seas, sending out a calm aura of calm and content to all around it. The island is majestic and slender, with a tall peak, forests, and grasslands, everywhere. A long river gallops through the center of the island. You will encounter Grass, Bug, Flying, Water, Fighting, and Normal types in this area. Here you will find the Element Emerald.

Island of Mist
Now, swim east, and you will begin to notice a drastic change in the climate from the warm sunny hills of Art Island to the deathly, cold, silence of the Island of Mist. Hidden under a veil of fog, it sits there, with the cold wind ravaging the icy island. Left to die away by the kindness of warmth, it lies there, getting colder and colder. It is entirely frozen, and snowstorms and hailstorms are commomplace here. Although it seems as if there is nothing special on it but ice and mountains, you are wrong! The freezing snow holds and hides secrets beneath its icy layers. On this island, you will encounter Ice, Ground, Rock, Dark, Fighting, and Ghost Pokémon so be wary of that. Here you will also find the Frozen Diamond.

New areas have sprouted since the volcano erupted! Now you can explore: The Volcano, which is on Route 59 at the north end, Blizzard Peak, at the southern part of the island, the Snowball Field northwest of the store, and Hail Lake, southeast of the store.

You can see the maps of the islands by clicking here.

~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~¤~~~

You start out by saying to which of the four outer islands you wish to go to, and which form of transportation you will take (listed below). We will then tell you what happens to you, and then, we give you several choices on what you can do. You choose one, and then, we tell you the consequences of your decisions, and several more decisions you can choose, and so on.
-The forms of transportation are:

-Swimming Snorlax
-Fire and Ice
-Chikorita Slingshot
-Circle of Unown
-Charizard Carrier
-Rollout Azumarill
-Torkoal's "Magic Carpet"

You can only access them when you physically go to a beach. To find out how they work, you have to use them yourself!

-When you post, please help us by posting your status. It will help us when updating. Thank you. You post your status by saying:

Island you are on currently/Where you currently are (specific location)/Amount of Food Units and Pokédolls you have (see below)/CC Points you have

And underneath it, say what you would like to do.

-Food: You will need food on your journey, mainly to feed the Pokémon. We still have to work out a problem about how much food you yourself consume. Food is measured in units. And when you start out, you have 5 food units.

-You will encounter numerous Pokémon in our game. Sometimes, they are friendly, and you can feed them. They may even become your friends and follow you along on your journey! Some are hostile, and you can throw them a Pokédoll to ward them off. You start out with 5 Pokédolls. You'll be able to check the genders and levels of these pokemon on this site.

-We have numerous stores all over the islands. But to go to them, you have to physically access them in the game. We will post an inventory every once in a while here in this main post, so check it often. If you get to a store in the game, state that you enter, state what you buy, and then, leave. Here, you can buy food and Pokédolls when you run out. You can use CC Points to buy things, as well as sell other objects you find along the road.

-You are allowed to bring along TWO Pokémon with you with you on your journey! They can be both adopted, captured or one of each. They can help you along the way, and you can bond with them on our journey. If you choose to bring a Pokémon with you, please state who they are, and their stats in a post. Thanks!

-You will meet numerous people and beings along your way on your journey. They will help you, but is their help good or bad? It's your decision. They are:

-Ombrosa the Talking Umbreon (only on Mistonnence Dragart)
-Mermaid (only on Dragonair Island)
-Laughing Child (only on Innocence Island)
-Articuno Specter (only on Art Island)
-Rotundo the Snorlax and his icy assistants (only on Mist Island)
-Lunavar, the White Tiger (only on Island of Dreams)
-Uinya the Enchantress (only on Pixie Island)
-Old Man/Woman (all islands)

-Each island has its own unique set of gems and diamonds that you can find, sell, and use!

Note to other workers: Tom and Kyle are still waiting for updates on version 9. And so am I.

Amy- You ask Serenity and Ralts to talk to the round thing in the air, and Omastar to do the same with the round things in the water. Serenity carries Ralts up into the air while Omastar crawls into the lake. As Omastar gets closer to the blue spheres, these start shaking and their owners pop out of the water. The spheres were Marill tails! The Marills swim towards Omastar and look at him with curiousity.

In the meantime, Serenity and Ralts have done some talking with the floating pokemon, who has turned out to be a Chimecho and is now coming down with them, waving his tail in a friendly and musical manner. Relaxing a bit upon noticing there's no threat in sight, you ask the Chimecho if he knows of an easy way to cross the lake.

"Well... floating has always worked for me," he replies. "But I doubt you can all do that. Maybe the Marills over there can help you. Or maybe I can get my family and we can teleport you to the other side. Are you trying to get anywhere in particular?"

-How will you respond?

[Charizard04621]

Karin- You ask the monk if he can pull the switch. He does so, and immediately another wall sounds like it's going down. You take some time to notice which one it is, until you realize it was only a piece of the large green wall to your left.

Another section of the maze is now open to you. The monk follows the arrows until he can finally reach you.

"I think we'll be done with this soon," he smiles for the first time since you've met him. "That's the final section."

[Phantom of Innocence-BF]

School's been quite hectic in these past few weeks, but here I get a chance to post again. I'm really sorry for any delays or inconveniences I've cost, Gabi. >.<

Julina- You and your team follow the mysterious Xatu up the hole and into a long tunnel of blackness. The psychic bird flies fast, but always pauses for a moment when you're having trouble catching up, as if it wanted you to follow.
The tunnel ends abruptly, and the light hurts your eyes when you reach the exit, but you soon get used to it. Then, you look around at your surroundings. You find yourself in a hemispherical room, or a dome, with walls that seem to be made of little pieces of glass of all shapes and colors, capriciously assembled to make the place tremendously bright and colorful. The colors flicker on the floor and on the Xatu's golden feathers as the sun's rays (or some rays of light in any case) make their way through the walls. The Xatu is now floating in the center of the dome. It seems to be looking at something. You then notice 3 larger, oval pieces of glass aligned on one side of the dome. One of them is blue, one is yellow, and one is pink.

Location= Mistonnence Dragart --> Maiden's Peak

Pack= Volcano Ruby, Frozen Diamond, Element Emerald, Mystic Pearl, Accelerator Gene, 3x Hollow Stone, Flame Gem, Solar Gem, Darkness Gem, 2xBlue MGCoin, 2x Red MGCoin, Fire Stone, Moon Stone, 32 Stamps, 144 CCPs, 2 Food and 3 Pkdolls.

PKMN Pals = Carbunkl (Sentret F), Kadabra (M), Pikachu (F), Gligar (M), Squirtle (F).

TMs = Twineedle, Drill Peck

I'll examine the colorful oval pieces of glass, please. =]

[Lady Vulpix]

It wasn't your fault at all, Julina. You've only caused a delay of an hour or so, while my latest delay has been longer than a month. I only PMed you in case you hadn't noticed I had updated for you, since AB was doing your updates before.


Amy- You turn to the Chimecho and tell him that any help would be welcomed. You tell him you're all trying to get to Pixie City, being careful not to say too much in case there are prying ears around.

"Pixie City?," the Chimecho says. "I can fix that. Hold on, I'll get the others."

You watch as the Chimecho floats away, and wait for some time. After a minute or two, the sound of bells starts ringing all over the place, announcing the arrival of the Chimecho and his group. Soon, you find yourselves surrounded by no less than 13 Chimechos!

"This group needs help to get to Pixie City," says the first Chimecho you've met. "Can we help them?"

The sound of chimes multiplies as all the floating pokemon nod in agreement, each of them grabbing a member of your company. Omastar waves goodbye to the Marills while he rejoins your group.

"Relax and make no sudden moves," says a Chimecho, wrapping its tail around your head. "We'll be there in no time!"

"Everyone follow me!," says the Chimecho that's now grabbing Alexa's arm. "No getting lost this time."

Not wanting to think of what may have happened last time, you follow your assigned Chimecho's directions. And before you can even take a deep breath, you notice the landscape around you has changed completely.

"Here we are!," says another Chimecho, letting go off Starflare's horn. "Pixie City's right ahead. Just be careful, the place is full of humans."

"Good luck!," another Chimecho tells you before fading away, along with the rest of the group.

You can see the lights of Pixie City ahead of you, on the other side of a wide road. You can also see another road to your right, which seams to lead right into the city.

-What will you do now?


Karin- You walk through the new opening, and the arrow tiles take you to the left, and then cause you turn right twice before leaving you facing yet another switch. The monk follows you, and pulls the switch for you. This switch has a different effect than the previous ones: it causes a platform to slide sideways, covering the hole on your side but leaving a similar gap behind.

"Will you please pull down the last switch on the east wall now?," the monk asks you. "You may pick the item on your way if you wish."

-What will you do? Pick the item and pull down the switch? Leave the item and pull down the switch? Or do something else?


Julina- You decide to examine the colorful oval shapes. As you fly towards them, you realize they were further than they seemed... and a lot bigger. It looks like you could fit a house into them, though you can't be sure of how your current size and the strange lighting of this room may affect your perception. As you get close to one of the ovals, you feel a strange vibration. The Xatu flies to your side and, for the first time, speaks to you.

"These are the gates of time," the mysterious bird says. "They represent the past, present and future. They help keep the balance of time throughout the world. I'm the gatekeeper. My family has always been in charge of keeping the timelines safe. But now, the balance has been altered."

There's a sad tone in the Xatu's voice.

"As you have been told, this is a psychic realm. The rules of nature are not as strong here as they are elsewhere, and sometimes they can be bent easily. If the chaos energy from the vortex is corrupted and turned into pure evil, this place will be the first to suffer its effects. But the connection also works backwards and you can reach for the vortex from these three gates, and disrupt its energies before it's too late. All you need is the essence of the Crystal Cave, which you already have as long as you remain in that shape and in this realm, and an icon of the past, present and future to activate each door."

-Has that speech made him less mysterious, or more so? What will you do?

[Wolfsong]

I'll turn to Andrew and ask him if he still has that cell phone. If so, i'll have him use it to contact Fay since that was who Uinya told us to contact when and if we need info or advice.

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy- You ask Andrew if he still has the cellphone with him. He tells you that he does, so you ask him to call Fay. Andrew nods and takes the phone closer to his face. Then he calls out "Fay". He stares at the phone for a while, before throwing it to the ground in frustration.
"This evil thing's not working!," he yells.
"Hey, don't do that!," Alexa shouts at him, picking up the cellphone. "You'll break it. That's not how it works. You really know nothing, do you?"
"I know a lot more than you. It's not my fault this phones so much worse than the ones we have where I come from."
"If you knew more than me, you'd know how to stop being annoying, Alexa says while browsing the directory on the phone. 'I'm hungry! I'm tired! I need to sleep! I wanna go home! This phone is worse than mine!' Our lives are in danger and all you can do is whine!"
"Well, you've been complaining a lot too, you know! At least you have your Quilava with you, but I have nobody! Everyone I know hasn't even been born!"

-It looks like a fight has started before anyone could dial the number. What will you do?

x.X This is not good. I'll turn to the kids and say simply "Enough." Then I'll tell them that i understand that they are tired and cranky but to try and get along. However i'll remind them of the fearow that i had to battle earlier. We don't want to draw attention to ourselves and get caught. We need to find that third child before the others do, as well as keep from getting caught. Then i'll turn to Serenity and see if she or Ralts can firgure out the phone. If they can we'll try to call agian.

Karin- You walk through the new opening, and the arrow tiles take you to the left, and then cause you turn right twice before leaving you facing yet another switch. The monk follows you, and pulls the switch for you. This switch has a different effect than the previous ones: it causes a platform to slide sideways, covering the hole on your side but leaving a similar gap behind.

"Will you please pull down the last switch on the east wall now?," the monk asks you. "You may pick the item on your way if you wish."

-What will you do? Pick the item and pull down the switch? Leave the item and pull down the switch? Or do something else?


Julina- You decide to examine the colorful oval shapes. As you fly towards them, you realize they were further than they seemed... and a lot bigger. It looks like you could fit a house into them, though you can't be sure of how your current size and the strange lighting of this room may affect your perception. As you get close to one of the ovals, you feel a strange vibration. The Xatu flies to your side and, for the first time, speaks to you.

"These are the gates of time," the mysterious bird says. "They represent the past, present and future. They help keep the balance of time throughout the world. I'm the gatekeeper. My family has always been in charge of keeping the timelines safe. But now, the balance has been altered."

There's a sad tone in the Xatu's voice.

"As you have been told, this is a psychic realm. The rules of nature are not as strong here as they are elsewhere, and sometimes they can be bent easily. If the chaos energy from the vortex is corrupted and turned into pure evil, this place will be the first to suffer its effects. But the connection also works backwards and you can reach for the vortex from these three gates, and disrupt its energies before it's too late. All you need is the essence of the Crystal Cave, which you already have as long as you remain in that shape and in this realm, and an icon of the past, present and future to activate each door."

-Has that speech made him less mysterious, or more so? What will you do?

Andy- You ask the man if he knows the way you and your pokemon could climb Blizzard Peak, explaining that you're trying to get to the top, and also ask him if he's kind enough to let you stay with him in his warm cottage, since it's "getting mighty cold out here".
The man looks at you and your pokemon for a moment.
"I can show you the way," he finally decided. "I was planning to climb the mountain tomorrow myself, since I need to check on something up there. Some company would be nice. Though I wasn't expecting anyone to show up so late at night. Come in, I won't leave you out in the cold. Though I must tell you I don't have a spare mattress, so I'm afraid you'll have to sleep on the floor."

-Will you accept the man's offer? Ask him for something? Talk to him some more? Reject his offer and walk away? Or do something else?

Accepting the man's offer, you lie down on the flaky floorboards, ready to fall asleep alongside your Charmander and Beldum.

"Good night," the man says, as you watch him doze off, as you follow the same itinerary.

A few hours pass as you both stay sound asleep for the moment, before you’re rudely awakened by a large thump at the door. The man calls for you in the other room telling you to quickly hide. You pretty much can't stand around there, so you and your pokémon follow him into the room, as he directs you to a cupboard. You hide inside, though cramped, as he shuts the door while he runs to go and hide himself.

You hear the door bash open, and footsteps speedily scratch across the floor. Listening, you hear a few words mutter from their mouths, but you can't pick up anything solid. Suddenly, the talking begins to slowly die down as well as their movement. About 10 minutes or so pass, and you can't hear a thing anymore. Assuming they’re gone, you slowly open the cupboard door. You notice the man hiding under the table, as he looks up at you and comes out.

"I’m glad you're safe," he says. "I don't know what they were doing here, or who they were. They walked past the table, but it was too dark to make out their appearance."

As you wonder why, your Beldum comes out from the cupboard. You wait for your Charmander to come out also, but he doesn't. You don't see his flame, or any light in there. You rush into the other room where you were sleeping, and notice that he isn't in there either. Where did he go?

What do you do now?


DarkPrince the Dark Knight
The sun flashes upon you at Welcome Beach, relaxing as you await to begin your adventure at Dragonair Island. A Sneasel walks by you and says hi, and before your eyes a striking icy track extends to the island you wish to set off on; you slowly walk across it, being careful not the fall into the flowing waters below.

Finally reaching the end, a Charmeleon comes and annihilates the once frozen trail, as you now ponder on where to go.

What will you do? Head down Route 27? Head down Route 23? Head to the Store? Head to the Mountains, or something else?

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy- "Enough," you tell the children, who halt their argument to look at you. You tell them you understand they're tired and cranky, but they should try and get along. You also remind them of the Fearow that attacked you earlier. "We don't want to draw attention to ourselves and get caught. We need to find that third child before the others do, as well as keep from getting caught," you say.
The children don't look too happy, but they seem to understand.

Then you turn to Serenity, and ask her if either she or Ralts could figure out Fay's phone number. Alexa decides to help, and all 3 of them begin to browse the directory.

"Strange, I can only see two numbers, but none of them says Fay," Alexa notes.
"What do the say?," Andrew asks her. Apparently the fight has been left behind.
"The first one says Yales and the other says Guru."
"Guru? Try that one. That's what they called Fay."
"Ok, then. I'll press this button and hope it works," decides Alexa.

Alexa presses a button and takes the phone to her ear. For some moments, nothing happens. But then, her expression changes.

"Hello, can I talk to Fay, please?," she asks. "Oh, it's you? Sorry, I didn't know... Wait, how old are you?... Oh, sorry. Yes, we do have something important to ask. We're about to enter Pixie City, and... Oh, I have no idea. He disappeared just like that!... Ok, I'll put her on the phone."

She then walks to your side and places the phone on your ear. The voice of a young girl greets you.

"Hi, this is Fay," she says. "Could you please explain what's going on? I've been looking for the missing children, and now the child of the present says your companion disappeared; how did that happen? Is everyone alright?"

-How will you reply?


Karin- As you walk towards the switch, you pick up the spherical container on the floor and open it. Inside it, you find a shiny grey stone. When you touch it, you notice it's harder than most stones you've found before.

Congratulations! You've found a Hard Stone!

You keep walking until you reach the east wall, and then pull down the final switch. At that moment, you hear the sound of another tile rotating.

"Good job!," the Monk tells you. "Now come back here. We'll follow the arrows and go to the northwest corner. The exit is there. Just watch out for the hole."

-This may be a silly question, but what will you do?


Julina- Sorry about the overload.
You ask the Xatu how you may come to possess the icons of the past, present and future.

"In this place, thought is what makes things happen," he replies. "So thinking of something that represents each of the three stages of time and pronouncing its name to give shape to its energy should do the trick."

As you try to make sense out of what he just said, you hear a voice in your head. It's the same voice that spoke to you when you entered this realm.

"Don't despair," she tells you. "The answer is closer than you may think. I for one am one of the children of the past, so you can say my name as you touch the first oval. Either that, or the name of any of the other two children of the past, if you know them... Oh, wait, here I'm being told that you do know one of the others. You can say either his name or mine while touching the first gate. Oh... and he says hi and says he wants to thank you for trying to save him."

-What will you do? Do you remember the names?

As for Kyle, sorry, slight mistake. It's the stars that are shining, not the sun. It looks like a minor detail, but it also has to do with interplayer continuity. If it helps, the sun would normally be shining at this time, but if you remember the last time you played you'll know why it's still night.

[Lady Vulpix]

Karin- After giving Onix the Hard Stone, you follow the monk across the arrows, and towards the northwest corner of the maze. There, you step on a marked tile, which slowly begins to ascend, taking you all up to the following floor.

Here, you find another large, nearly empty room, much like the ones you'd found on the first few floors. And once more, you can see a monk standing in the center of the room. This time, however, he's not alone. A little girl is with him. She seems to be around 8 or 9 years old, and nas long, golden hair that falls in curls below her shoulders. You can see she has something in one of her hands, which is close to her head and partially covered by her hair. You deduce that it's a phone, since she's speaking into it.

"Maybe if you stay close by the children's side and you all walk into the city together, people will find it strange but will also realize there are stranger things going on," you hear her say. "Then you should all focus on finding..."

At that moment, she turns in your direction and sees you. Her eyes open widely, like windows blown by the wind.

"Wait a minute..." she says to her interlocutor on the phone, taking a careful look at you. "I can't believe it! She's here! The last child of the past is here! Come to the temple as soon as you can, please; it's in the center of the city. Andrew's been here before, so he should know how to get here. We'll be waiting for you and then we can all think of a plan together. I can't believe it!"

The little girl hangs up, her face filled with excitement. The monk who was standing next to her looks at her, and then at you with astonishment, as the girl runs to your side with the widest of grins.

"I can't believe we've found you at last!," she exclaims. "Or, rather, you've found us. I've done an awful job keeping track of you and the others tonight. It's hard with so much magic being active and all. Anyway, I'm so glad you're alright!"

"Miss Fay, if you excuse me," says the monk who was standing next to the girl, "I don't think our visitor knows much about what's going on. It would be wise to explain the situation to her before we add to her confusion."
"Oops! Sorry," the girl chirps. "I'm Fay, the guru," she says, extending a hand to you. "Don't be afraid or freaked out, I'm here to help you. Everyone here is. We're trying to save the 9 children of time from the YamiKairyu... He's an evil Dragonite - very evil! I think you've met some of his henchmen before, you were teleported to Pixie Island by one of them, weren't you? Anyway, the silver wolf is coming and she's bringing 2 children with her, so we must wait here until they arrive. Maybe we can talk till then and tell each other what we know."

-How will you respond? I hope I haven't overloaded you with information, I'm sure she'll give you a clearer explanation if you ask.



Amy- You tell Fay about the encouter with the Houndooms, and how the Gengar tricked them into thinking you were their enemies.
"While I was busy trying not to have us all become crispy critters and prove that we weren't the troublemakers, his itemfinder began beeping and he disapperared into the steam," you tell her. "Other than that, we're fine. I've still got the two kids. Although they are tired and cranky."
"Oh, that's strange... I wonder if the YamiKairyu's behind this. He must be. One of his henchmen has the ability to teleport, that's how she caught 2 of the children, and almost got the last one too. I wish I could help him, but I can't for now. At least I'm glad to hear the rest of you are safe and sound."

You then ask her if she can fill you in on what to do next. You hear silence for a moment.
"If Uinya wasn't so busy she could help you make it across the city unnoticed," she tells you. "But we can't disturb her now, if she lets the sun rise we'll lose the advantage we have. People will start wondering why it hasn't risen yet. Maybe if you stay close by the children's side and you all walk into the city together, people will find it strange but will also realize there are stranger things going on. Then you should all focus on finding... Wait a minute... I can't believe it! She's here! The last child of the past is here! Come to the temple as soon as you can, please; it's in the center of the city. Andrew's been here before, so he should know how to get here. We'll be waiting for you and then we can all think of a plan together. I can't believe it!"

With that, she hangs up.

-What will you do now?


Julina- You turn around and fly backwards, touching the first oval with the tip of your tail.

"Amber!," you call out.

At that moment, something begins to vibrate behind your tail. You turn around and notice the oval you've just touched is shaking in concentric waves.

"Well done!," Amber's voice tells you. "Now you can do the same with the other two gates, just make sure to name a child of the present and future respectively."
"Of course it would help if she knew their names," says a familiar male voice. "Hey, kids, which of you come from the present, and which ones come from the future?"
Silence is the only answer you hear.
"I don't think that will help, Darren," says Amber. "Everyone considers their own time the present. Besides, Julina has to say their names, not us. Otherwise I would tell her."
"Not everyone," Darren replies. "I know I live in the past... or at least I used to. I hope I can go back... I hope all the pokemon around the temple are alright."
"I hope the world is alright after all this is over," Amber sighs. "Alright, Julina. I can't say the names of the children of the present and future before you do or else this won't work, but now that our psychic connection has become stronger I may be able to show you some images. Though I'm afraid you'll have to find out who the children from each time are by yourself."

As she says this, a succession of scenes represents itself in your mind...

This time, however, he's not alone. A little girl is with him. She seems to be around 8 or 9 years old, and nas long, golden hair that falls in curls below her shoulders. You can see she has something in one of her hands, which is close to her head and partially covered by her hair. You deduce that it's a phone, since she's speaking into it.

"Maybe if you stay close by the children's side and you all walk into the city together, people will find it strange but will also realize there are stranger things going on," you hear her say. "Then you should all focus on finding..."

At that moment, she turns in your direction and sees you. Her eyes open widely, like windows blown by the wind.

"Wait a minute..." she says to her interlocutor on the phone, taking a careful look at you. "I can't believe it! She's here! The last child of the past is here! Come to the temple as soon as you can, please; it's in the center of the city. Andrew's been here before, so he should know how to get here. We'll be waiting for you and then we can all think of a plan together. I can't believe it!"

The little girl hangs up, her face filled with excitement. The monk who was standing next to her looks at her, and then at you with astonishment, as the girl runs to your side with the widest of grins.

"I can't believe we've found you at last!," she exclaims. "Or, rather, you've found us. I've done an awful job keeping track of you and the others tonight. It's hard with so much magic being active and all. Anyway, I'm so glad you're alright!"

"Miss Fay, if you excuse me," says the monk who was standing next to the girl, "I don't think our visitor knows much about what's going on. It would be wise to explain the situation to her before we add to her confusion."
"Oops! Sorry," the girl chirps. "I'm Fay, the guru," she says, extending a hand to you. "Don't be afraid or freaked out, I'm here to help you. Everyone here is. We're trying to save the 9 children of time from the YamiKairyu... He's an evil Dragonite - very evil! I think you've met some of his henchmen before, you were teleported to Pixie Island by one of them, weren't you? Anyway, the silver wolf is coming and she's bringing 2 children with her, so we must wait here until they arrive. Maybe we can talk till then and tell each other what we know."

-How will you respond? I hope I haven't overloaded you with information, I'm sure she'll give you a clearer explanation if you ask.

Sounds like I can get some more information while we wait for the silver wolf... First of all, I'll ask why they'd teleport me to Pixie Island. Then I'll ask who the silver wolf is, and then I'll ask what being a child of the past means.

[Wolfsong]

Amy- You tell Fay about the encouter with the Houndooms, and how the Gengar tricked them into thinking you were their enemies.
"While I was busy trying not to have us all become crispy critters and prove that we weren't the troublemakers, his itemfinder began beeping and he disapperared into the steam," you tell her. "Other than that, we're fine. I've still got the two kids. Although they are tired and cranky."
"Oh, that's strange... I wonder if the YamiKairyu's behind this. He must be. One of his henchmen has the ability to teleport, that's how she caught 2 of the children, and almost got the last one too. I wish I could help him, but I can't for now. At least I'm glad to hear the rest of you are safe and sound."

You then ask her if she can fill you in on what to do next. You hear silence for a moment.
"If Uinya wasn't so busy she could help you make it across the city unnoticed," she tells you. "But we can't disturb her now, if she lets the sun rise we'll lose the advantage we have. People will start wondering why it hasn't risen yet. Maybe if you stay close by the children's side and you all walk into the city together, people will find it strange but will also realize there are stranger things going on. Then you should all focus on finding... Wait a minute... I can't believe it! She's here! The last child of the past is here! Come to the temple as soon as you can, please; it's in the center of the city. Andrew's been here before, so he should know how to get here. We'll be waiting for you and then we can all think of a plan together. I can't believe it!"

With that, she hangs up.

-What will you do now?

Before we move, I'll give the nevermelting ice to Serenity at least for the time being since we might need it. Next, i'll tell everyone to stick close together and do not approach anyone looking like a turtle since i have a feeling that Ms. Doodles was the teleporter that Fay mentioned. Then I'll turn to Andrew and ask him if he can tell us how to the temple. Then we will head into the city but stick close together. i'll have Blazer take the lead and Stareflare follow at the rear. (^^; hope that that made sense)

[Phantom of Innocence-BF]

Julina- You turn around and fly backwards, touching the first oval with the tip of your tail.

"Amber!," you call out.

At that moment, something begins to vibrate behind your tail. You turn around and notice the oval you've just touched is shaking in concentric waves.

"Well done!," Amber's voice tells you. "Now you can do the same with the other two gates, just make sure to name a child of the present and future respectively."
"Of course it would help if she knew their names," says a familiar male voice. "Hey, kids, which of you come from the present, and which ones come from the future?"
Silence is the only answer you hear.
"I don't think that will help, Darren," says Amber. "Everyone considers their own time the present. Besides, Julina has to say their names, not us. Otherwise I would tell her."
"Not everyone," Darren replies. "I know I live in the past... or at least I used to. I hope I can go back... I hope all the pokemon around the temple are alright."
"I hope the world is alright after all this is over," Amber sighs. "Alright, Julina. I can't say the names of the children of the present and future before you do or else this won't work, but now that our psychic connection has become stronger I may be able to show you some images. Though I'm afraid you'll have to find out who the children from each time are by yourself."

As she says this, a succession of scenes represents itself in your mind...

Wow, I’m finally posting again. Sorry for the long delay! ^^;
Anyways, I’m updating Gabi, Pichu, Kyle and Kerel in this session. I've also included the last post you made, in case you don't remember.

aragornbird- You keep crawling through the ant-filled tunnel while Slakoth tries to eat as many ants as she can't. However, she can't eat very fast, and the ants keep coming the more you advance. It's as if they were multiplying! You insist on crawling further, until you finally find an opening. It seems like some sort of cave, except that there are ants everywhere! You can also see many tunnels heading in all directions, just like the one you're in. It looks like you've reached Ant City!

-What will you do now? Go back to the Brelooms? Stick with the ants? Or do you have other ideas?

Location: Ant City, Art Island
Food: 5
Pokedolls: 5
CCPs and Stamps: 258 CCPs/44 Stamps
Pokemon: Aeragorn (LV14 Skarmory, M) Dargonis (LV10 Aerodactyl, M) Slakoth (LV9, F)
Items: None

Whoa, Ant City? Well, I’ll recall Slakoth, seeing how she’s probably full, and I’ll explore the place and possibly look at the trails of ants to see if any of them are going out of the cave.

Gabi – The Tyranitar merely nods. “Fine, it’s no business of mine,” he says, and stomps off into the distance. You look around and everything seems clear as far as you can see. With your Pokemon by your side, you march forward through the desert, the hot sun beating upon you. A few moments later, you start feeling thirsty, but just then a large shadow swoops overhead. You look up and discover that it’s another Dragonite, one of the dragons you’re trying to help.
What will you do next?

This is why I asked Ventura and Lagi to come with me. Lagi's empathic powers and Ventura's radar sense can help me find out if it's an illusion and, in case it's not, what the Dragonite is feeling. Then I'll wait to see what happens.

Gabi – Not quite believing your eyes at the sight of the large dragon Pokemon, you ask your Venomoth and Dragonite to identify it. Ventura flys up and hovers in place for a few moments, testing the air with her antennae. She nods as she realizes that the approaching Dragonite is not a mirage, but in fact, real. Lagi flies up next with glowing antennae, sensing the other dragon’s emotions. The Dragonite is feeling quite worried, but is otherwise friendly. The three Pokemon land by your side while the Dragonite stranger tells you that if you’re ready, you can hop onto his back so he could take you back to the cave where the other Dragonite reside and you can finally finish your little mission.
What will you do next?

Hi!

It's been a really long time, but I'd like to start a brand new quest please!

Location: Welcome Beach
CCP: 0
Stamps: 10
Items: Light Gem
Pokemon: n/a

I'd like to take the Fire and Ice to Dragonair Island please (I happen to remember it was the same place where I originally started).

Hey, Kyle!

Traveling without any Pokemon to accompany you, you wait on welcome beach for your preferred choice of transportation. A Jynx and a Magmar walk up and make sure you’re ready before beginning the process. The Jynx fires a tremendous Ice Beam into the water, which freezes into an icy bridge that eventually leads all the way to the shore of Dragonair Island. You run across the bridge, making sure not to slip and fall, and when you finally reach the end, the Magmar blasts the bridge with a Flamethrower and melts it down.

I'll let my pokémon to decide what to do next, since I have no clue. If they don't do anything, I guess I'll snuggle up with them for a long nap. ^^;

You ask your Cyndaquil what it wants to do and it simply yawns. Well, that was enough incentive for you to take a nap. You hold your Cyndaquil close so that it’s warm body will keep away the cold. The long nap turns into a deep sleep and soon it is morning again. Sunlight streams into the cave and the fierce winds have subsided.
What will you do next?

Kerel – Welcome to Expedia!
Your make sure your two adoptees are secure within their PokeBalls as you wait for any sort of transportation to take you to Dragonair Island. Suddenly, a large shape starts swimming towards you. It’s a Snorlax! The Snorlax points to a cushion strapped to its enormous belly. You gently sit on it and the Snorlax takes off. For such a large Pokemon, it’s an amazingly fast swimmer. You step foot on the sands of Dragonair Island in no time.

Whoops, sorry, Kyle!
I didn't see that...>_<

I'll try and update tomorrow. I have to go to bed now.

OKay, I only have time to do Kyle's FIXED update:

Kyle - Setting your sights on the distant mountains, you begin to walk towards them. You have almost made it out of the beach when you suddenly trip on something in the sand. Getting back up and brushing the dirt off, you look down and see two horizontal lines and two vertical lines in the sand.

goodbye.

[Lady Vulpix]

I'd say sorry about the delay, but the delay has already become a tradition, so instead I'll say thanks for your patience and for continuing to play this game.

I'd like to welcome the newest member of the staff, Cheesey!
Congratulations, Chris! I hope you enjoy working here, and may the Expedia Curse not get to you. So far I seem to be immune to it, so hopefully you are too. (It's something Julina warned me about when I joined the staff, some sort of curse that makes most workers leave and/or become inactive, but evidently it doesn't affect all of us).

As for Jay, it's sad to see him go again, but it was his decision and I respect him. I think he could have found a better way to say goodbye, but I'm not shocked by his reactions anymore, so may he have a nice life.

And to everyone... Happy New Year!!

I'll update for the people below. Cheesey will update for Shonta and Darkfire, and hopefully AB will update for Tom, for Kyle and for me.

Gabi ? Not quite believing your eyes at the sight of the large dragon Pokemon, you ask your Venomoth and Dragonite to identify it.

I'll let the Dragonite take me to the cave.

Karin- You decide to get some information while you wait. To start, you ask Fay why you've been teleported to Pixie Island.

"I don't know exactly what the YamiKairyu's plans are," she tells you. "I started trying to locate you as soon as I found out the children of time were being kidnapped, and all of a sudden I felt your presence on the east side of this island, along with some remnants of magic. I suppose the YamiKairyu's minion was trying to take you where the others are but then something went wrong. Or right, for us."
"Who's the silver wolf?," you ask her.
"She's an adventurer. One of the many who have answered to the Maiden's call for help, but she's come further than anyone else. She has faced the YamiKairyu's minions several times, and she's even rescued one of the 9 children from their hands. Now the other adventurer who was with her has gone missing, and she's bringing 2 of the children here. The only ones who are still free, besides you."

You then ask her what being a child of the past means.

"Well, it's complicated," she says. "It has to do with temporal magic. There are others who know more about it than me, like Uinya and Amber. But now Uinya's busy holding the night and Amber's been caught and I can't seem to find her, so I'll tell you what I know. Ever since it was discovered, Pixie Island has always been filled with magic. Some are more aware of it than others, but we all know it's there. It doesn't affect us most of the time, unless somebody's weilding it, but there aren't many mages around anymore and those with the power to harness the most dangerous kinds of magic are normally very careful with it. Temporal magic is one of the most dangerous kinds, and also the hardest to weild and control. There's a family of pokemon who dedicate their lives to watch over it - some of them are on the Maiden Islands and some live in magical realms. But not everyone's so careful and there are beings who would actually want to do the most awful things with this magic. I think the YamiKairyu's trying to do something with it, that must be why he wants you. You and the other children of time have the seeds of temporal magic inside you. You were all born at different times, on different places; but now you're all being gathered so I can only think something big is about to happen. So, that's more or less it. 3 of the children represent the past, 3 represent the present and 3 represent the future. The children of the past are not children anymore, but the power's still latent inside you. My friend Amber, from the Island of Dreams, is one of the children of the past too. She's taught me a lot, not only about magic and history but also many other things. She also has psychic powers like me. But now the YamiKairyu has her, and she hasn't contacted me since she was caught and I can't find her. I really wish I knew when she and the others are."

Tears begin to form in Fay's eyes as she thinks of her friend.

-What will you do?


Amy- Giving the nevermelting ice to Serenity, you tell everyone to stick together and not to approach anyone looking like a turtle. You then turn to Andrew and ask him if he can tell you how to get to the temple. He thinks for a moment, trying to remember.
"It was in the middle of a wide street," he says. "I think it was an avenue."
"Oh, thanks. That helps a lot," Alexa tells him.
"Shut up!," he shouts at her, startling her.
Alexa's Quilava walks between the two kids and stands on his rear legs, trying to separate them. Alexa hugs the pokemon tightly. Andrew sighs.
"I think we may find it if we walk down that street," Andrew suggests. "It looks similar to the one where the temple was."
"We could phone Fay again and ask her to guide us," Alexa counters.
"She told Amy to follow my directions. That means my directions are right. She's a guru, she knows."
"Ok, but if we get lost, I'll call her and tell her you messed up."
"That won't happen."

By this time all the pokemon are looking at the children, ready to intervene if they start fighting again, but the two shrug it off. Andrew begins to walk along the street he pointed to, followed by the rest of the group. Soon you reach a square, where a large group of people are gathered. They alternate between talking to each other and looking at the sky. None of them seems to notice your group.

-What will you do? Approach the group of people? Keep walking in the direction indicated by Andrew? Ask Alexa to call Fay? Or do something else?


Julina- Touching the portal to the future with your tail, you call out the second name: "Bryan!" You then turn to the portal in the middle, and pronounce Grace's name while touching it. The three portals begin to vibrate with concentrical waves. Soon, the walls of the dome start spinning and bending themselves in different directions, their colors twisting and mixing into each other like a crazy kaleidoscope.

"Well done," you hear the Xatu's voice behind you. But when you turn to look, he's gone.

Moreover, the whole dome has disappeared. All you see behind you is your group of pokemon companions, with puzzled looks on their faces. You then face front, and are greeted by a familiar sight: the seventeen doors, and the inscription that reads:

Around you are the doors that will lead to victory
Get through them all and you'll make history
Door number one is plain and white
Door number two is out of sight
Door number three will make you shiver
Door number four will make you quiver
Door number five is on the ground
Door number six weighs less than a pound
Door number seven is green with vines
Door number eight is filled with signs
Door number nine is dark and dim
Door number ten is filled to the brim
Door number eleven burns in many shards
Door number twelve has a fist on a card
Door number thirteen will give you a shock
Door number fourteen is hard as a rock
Door number fifteen is smooth and grey
Door number sixteen is toxic and gives dismay
Last but not least is door number seventeen
Which is Fire, Water, Electric, and every color you've ever seen.

-Where will you go now?


aragornbird- You recall Slakoth and begin to explore the place. You can see many tunnels going in all directions, and lots of ants all over the place. Soeme of them keep climbing you as if you were a part of the landscape. Some others run away as you get close to them. It looks like you're at a major ant crossroads. Initially, nothing makes any of the tunnels look different from all the others, except that, once you listen carefully, you can hear a faint buzzing sound coming from one of them.

-What will you do? Explore the tunnel the sound comes from? Go back to where you came from? Pick a random tunnel and explore it? Or do something else?


Kerel- Whenever you post here, please include your status in your post. (Location, pokemon names and species, items, stamps and CCPs). I remember your info at this moment, but I'm not going to keep track of everyone's details.

Unsure of where to go next, you decide to enter the store and see if you can find a map. A young lady greets you.
"Hi, can I help you?," she asks.
When you tell her you're looking for a map, she can't help but look a little disappointed.
"Sure, pick one from the pile," she tell you, pointing to a stack of foiled pieces of paper. "Basic maps are free, unless you'd like a complete brochure with detailed information about all the interesting locations on the island. Brochures cost 2 stamps each. Also, if you're interested, we have a fine selection of toys, TMs and healing items. I'm sure your Ponyta will be interested in a Flame Wheel TM. Or maybe you would like an Ice Pack, guaranteed to heal any burns in a matter of minutes."

-What will you do? Will you buy anything? Talk to the woman some more? Pick a free map and leave? Or do something else?

Karin- You decide to get some information while you wait. To start, you ask Fay why you've been teleported to Pixie Island.

"I don't know exactly what the YamiKairyu's plans are," she tells you. "I started trying to locate you as soon as I found out the children of time were being kidnapped, and all of a sudden I felt your presence on the east side of this island, along with some remnants of magic. I suppose the YamiKairyu's minion was trying to take you where the others are but then something went wrong. Or right, for us."
"Who's the silver wolf?," you ask her.
"She's an adventurer. One of the many who have answered to the Maiden's call for help, but she's come further than anyone else. She has faced the YamiKairyu's minions several times, and she's even rescued one of the 9 children from their hands. Now the other adventurer who was with her has gone missing, and she's bringing 2 of the children here. The only ones who are still free, besides you."

You then ask her what being a child of the past means.

"Well, it's complicated," she says. "It has to do with temporal magic. There are others who know more about it than me, like Uinya and Amber. But now Uinya's busy holding the night and Amber's been caught and I can't seem to find her, so I'll tell you what I know. Ever since it was discovered, Pixie Island has always been filled with magic. Some are more aware of it than others, but we all know it's there. It doesn't affect us most of the time, unless somebody's weilding it, but there aren't many mages around anymore and those with the power to harness the most dangerous kinds of magic are normally very careful with it. Temporal magic is one of the most dangerous kinds, and also the hardest to weild and control. There's a family of pokemon who dedicate their lives to watch over it - some of them are on the Maiden Islands and some live in magical realms. But not everyone's so careful and there are beings who would actually want to do the most awful things with this magic. I think the YamiKairyu's trying to do something with it, that must be why he wants you. You and the other children of time have the seeds of temporal magic inside you. You were all born at different times, on different places; but now you're all being gathered so I can only think something big is about to happen. So, that's more or less it. 3 of the children represent the past, 3 represent the present and 3 represent the future. The children of the past are not children anymore, but the power's still latent inside you. My friend Amber, from the Island of Dreams, is one of the children of the past too. She's taught me a lot, not only about magic and history but also many other things. She also has psychic powers like me. But now the YamiKairyu has her, and she hasn't contacted me since she was caught and I can't find her. I really wish I knew when she and the others are."

Tears begin to form in Fay's eyes as she thinks of her friend.

I'll try to comfort her and offer to help find Amber when we're done waiting for the silver wolf. Then I'll ask that while we're waiting, could I possibly visit the store on this island to stock up on some items?

Thanks, Gabi. To everyone else who may be wondering exactly why I was hired here, it's because I have the time to dedicate to this topic, mainly. I hope that everyone's okay with me being here and that I don't become a victim of the Expedia curse...

Darkfire » You arrive on Welcome Beach, ready for your Expedia adventure. All you can see is sea and forest. Looking towards the ocean, a sillhouette emerges from the mist. It has a long, slender neck and what looks like a spiky back. As it comes closer you can tell what it is; it's a Lapras! The elegant creature continues to swim towards you. When it reaches the shore it says to you: "Where is it you wish to go?"
"Dragonair Island, please."
"Okay. Hold on a moment."

She smiles at you before opening her mouth and shooting out a thick beam of ice from her mouth. The ice seems to go on for quite a while... But it stops eventually. She's formed a bridge out of ice for you! Knowing what you have to do, you step onto the icy bridge and start making your way across it. You have to grip the sides to stop yourself from falling over, but they're so cold! Once you hit the halfway mark your hands have been completely numbed out, but your used to the slippery base of the bridge. The Lapras is swimming alongside you, making sure you don't fall off or anything.

Once you reach Dragonair Island, the Lapras speaks again: "I hope you enjoy your time here." She swims off before you can respond. You turn around, ready for your adventure. Just as you're about to set off, a Rapidash appears from the mountains! He's running really fast, and it looks like he's headed straight towards you! Thankfully, he isn't. He's heading towards the bridge. He stops beside it and melts it with a huge blast of fire before shooting off again. Now you can begin your adventure!

Would you like to head left down Route 23, right down Route 23, through the mountains (via Route 22), go to the store, or something else?

Shonta » You head through the mountains to the source of the loud roar. As you walk through the rocky environment, you can hear a faint screeching which gradually gets louder and louder as you get nearer to the sound's source. It's very high-pitched and it sounds like it's coming from more than one body, and it's getting so loud that you can't hear the roaring any more.

The mountainous path that you are walking through is getting slightly rougher and more difficult to navigate so you can't help stumbling every now and again. But it isn't long until you reach a dead end! It's difficult to see where you can go from here, but there's a craggy rock which you can use to get to another rock and walk further. You do so, and walk a little further - The screeching is getting increasingly louder and it's not long until you're pretty much forced to clasp your hands over your ears.

The source of the noise must be close now, so you walk closer towards it. Even with your hands over your ears the screeching feels like it's piercing your ear drums. However, you press on until you reach the source of the noise. It appears you've reached a hot spring, but more importantly, you've found out the cause of the screeching - it's a swarm of Yanma! There are so many of them! So many in fact that you can't even see the opposite side of the hot spring since they're completely obscuring your vision. Wondering why they're screeching, your ears are slightly more used to the noise and you don't have to cover your ears any more. One of the Yanma notices you (well, one of them was bound to, seeing as they can see 360 degrees around them with their eyes), flies over to you and speaks in its loudest voice possible: "What are you doing here?"

How will you respond?

I hope that was okay.

Amy- Giving the nevermelting ice to Serenity, you tell everyone to stick together and not to approach anyone looking like a turtle. You then turn to Andrew and ask him if he can tell you how to get to the temple. He thinks for a moment, trying to remember.
"It was in the middle of a wide street," he says. "I think it was an avenue."
"Oh, thanks. That helps a lot," Alexa tells him.
"Shut up!," he shouts at her, startling her.
Alexa's Quilava walks between the two kids and stands on his rear legs, trying to separate them. Alexa hugs the pokemon tightly. Andrew sighs.
"I think we may find it if we walk down that street," Andrew suggests. "It looks similar to the one where the temple was."
"We could phone Fay again and ask her to guide us," Alexa counters.
"She told Amy to follow my directions. That means my directions are right. She's a guru, she knows."
"Ok, but if we get lost, I'll call her and tell her you messed up."
"That won't happen."

By this time all the pokemon are looking at the children, ready to intervene if they start fighting again, but the two shrug it off. Andrew begins to walk along the street he pointed to, followed by the rest of the group. Soon you reach a square, where a large group of people are gathered. They alternate between talking to each other and looking at the sky. None of them seems to notice your group.

-What will you do? Approach the group of people? Keep walking in the direction indicated by Andrew? Ask Alexa to call Fay? Or do something else?

First i'd like to give Serenity the present tm that i got from the emt today.

Anyway after Serenity gets the tm then after we get out of earshot of the people even though they arent' paying attention to us. I'd rather be safe than sorry. ^^; I'll then turn to the group. I'll ask Andrew if he'd mind if i asked Ranec to use his psychic powers to maybe find the way to the temple from Andrew. If its ok with Andrew then thats' what i'd have ranec do then he can take the lead if it works. ^^;
