Jamie watched as the twins became energized and animated with their tale. She couldn’t help but giggle and smile. By the way they acted it would be a fantastical tale. A story about a king should be wonderful... but one about his down fall? How could that go? Together they the set up the world of the story. Interest took her and she listened closely.

“The sages and the plasma king were walking hand in hand...” One of the twins leaned in close to her and she stepped back. ‘Plasma King? Why does that sound familiar?’ She wondered? ‘Oh well irrelevant.’ Focusing on the story again she listened to the tale of the boy and the king. The story continued and the topic of pokemon continued to pop up.

She listened and became slightly offended. She knew that it was a story but she herself was a trainer, she was raising pokemon and trying to become a champion. She pushed it aside and listened to the story. it was becoming quite interesting now. Another boy was introduced but he had to leave. Jamie felt sad for the little boy who would become king. Jamie never knew of a king in her home region.

The story ended and the twins stood in front of her. Smiling she clapped her hands together. “That was a good story, a little sad but still grand. I didn’t know there were kings where I’m from.” She would have to write this story down in her journal to take back to her town later. “Are there kings here? Queens? Are there Pokemon trainers like me?” She asked and put her hand by her side.

She was looking for the bag that wasn't there. ‘Hm?’ Looking down she spun around to see if her bag was any where to be found. Looking up at the twins her eyes widened. ‘My bag! Wheres my bag?’ Looking around she tried to see if the cat man was around. “Excuse me have you seen a cat man? He has something I need.”

He watches the girls reactions mild amusement, and other him regards her precariously. Rightly so! Interest… Ahh. What was that, but another word for curiosity? Surely the concepts were one and the same. Interest and curiosity went hand in hand, just as he and other him did. They link arms together and purr in unison, “She’d like to hear the story, would she? What a story to be had, what fun indeed!” They separate once more, and he jumps to the side in a dramatic display of energy. 

“But you best be careful,” he sings.

“…Don’t you know,” other him songs.

“…Knowledge may be power,” he chants.

“…But curiosity is what killed the cat,” other him counters.

“-And tore down the king~”

She nodded as she spoke. “Yea I left two years ago to start my pokemon journey.” She smiled. There was a pause as she remember the gym badge she had earned not to long ago. Her excitement kicked in and she just had to show the stranger her achievement. 

“Look at this!” She quickly dug out her ID card that marked how many badges she had. She held it out to him. “I just got my fourth badge a few weeks ago!” She stuck the candy back in her mouth. “I bet my mom would have been proud of me.” 

☆ ~ “Ahh.” Yeah, he lived there… Though he isn’t certain how much he wants to tell her… “…Yeah I- I grew up there. I left when I was sixteen.” And he hasn’t been back since. He wants to… He really does, but…

Going home would mean facing those who had raised him. Likely, they all think him dead. And god, what would they even say? How would they react upon finding out he’s alive, but one of the most hated people in the entire fucking region? His life is one verbal bomb, but his involvement with Team Galactic is another, and he isn’t sure he’ll ever be ready for that.

“Are you from Snowpoint as well?” Maybe she knew his mother.

[the-aspiring-astronomer-blog]

She nodded and put her bag to the side. holding her sucker in her hand she nodded again and looked at the sky. “Yea Snowpoint is not the best but after a blizzard when the sky’s are clear I loved laying in the snow and looking at them.” She smiled at the memory. She looked over at him. “This may sound weird but by what I understand you lived there at some point, correct?” 

☆ ~ Snow…? “Are you from up north?” Perhaps she’s a kindred spirit, or something of the sort… “I remember taking a fascination with the stars as a young boy, but up in Snowpoint…” He shrugs. “Blizzards are not ideal for stargazing. In that respect at least, Sunnyshore is superior.”

He shakes his head at her offer. “…No thanks. I… Don’t really eat sweets.” Or much of anything for that matter, but he isn’t going to say that to a complete stranger.

[the-aspiring-astronomer-blog]

“Yea sure.” She smiled, she didn’t really think about the fact that he was a stranger and she was a child but they were only watching stars. “Yea I’ve been studying astrology scents I was a little girl, except back home I couldn’t always watch the start because of the snow, but travailing helps.” She smile at him. She reached into her bag again and pulled out one of her sweets. “Candy?” She asked.

☆ ~ “…You’re… Okay. Sure.” He shrugs. It isn’t often that someone so ignorant speaks to him. “Mind if I join you? You’re watching the stars, yeah? I know a thing or two about the night sky.”

[the-aspiring-astronomer-blog]

Her parents? “Um...” She thought for a moment. “Well no not exactly, but there cool with it I think.” She thought about Snowpoint and how she would have to go back and visit the elders and even her father if he was visiting. “And to answer that other question I don’t “really” know this building but I know Sunnyshore, been here about a week now, I’ll leave after I finish my notes.” She said and pulled her note book out.

☆ ~ “Stars, huh…” Well, she does have a point. The Galactic building is on the highest cliff in Sunnyshore, though not because of its close proximity to the sky. “…You… Do realize where you are, yeah? Do your parents approve of you hanging around here?”

[the-aspiring-astronomer-blog]

Looking over her shoulder at the man she was a tiny bit surprised that people were still there. “U-uh sorry, I’m just camping out here waiting for the stars, if I’m correct this spot will be the best to view them.” She smiled at him.

☆ ~ “Er. I mean, I’m sure you have your reasons… But might I inquire as to why you’re currently camped outside my company building?”

Kid in a Candy Store// Jamie & ???

Looking up at the sign above the door Jamie smiled. Taking a deep inhale she enjoyed the aroma of sweets. She had enough sweets to last till the next town but it wouldn’t hurt to get a few more pieces, right? Bouncing on her toes she pushed her body forwards towards the door. Stepping into the establishment she felt the shutter of excitement run threw her body. Looking at the store a smile appeared on her lips faster then she could think. 

One step to the left and she was off on her adventure in candy land. Stoping at the first shelf she looked at every thing it had to hold. It was foreign candy that Jamie had never seen before. Looking at the sodas she shrugged. For a girl who loved sweets she did not like soda. taking a step back she stood on her toes and looked at the higher shelfs. 

Jamie continued this process threw the entire store three times. Each time around he store looking at the candy she became more and more exited. Finally stoping in the corner of the store with the candy she knew best as well as some of her child hood favorites she bounced on her toes in excitement. “Oh I don’t know.” She whispered to herself and looked at the sweets. She grabbed a few of her favorites and a packet of some chewy candy she always got as a child in Snowpoint before turning around.

observing the store she ignored the clerk restocking the shelfs and let out a huff of annoyance. “I don’t know what i want. It all looks so good.” Walking back over to the foreign candy she looked at one of the candy’s of the higher shelfs. Interest taking her She reached up but it was just out of her reach. Squinting her eyes she felt determination run threw her. trying again she almost grabbed it when a hand beat her to it.

“Excuse me,” They said calmly. Turning to look at them she saw they were holding the candy out to her. “I think you were just a tad bit to short.” 

“I’m not short.” She mumbled and went to take the candy from them.

Jamie looked around as the Twins spoke to each other. ‘Are they talking about me?’ She wondered but brushed it off and continued to look around at her surroundings. The forest was nice but she was growing tired of the same looking trees. ‘Any one could get lost in this forest if they weren't carful.’ She thought and smoothed down her hair.

It felt a little mess by not to bad feeling the need to keep her self busy she looked down at her cloth to see them wrinkled and her shoes covered in dirt. “Ew.” She murmured to herself and started to striated her cloths. Feeling satisfied with her correction she put her hands in her pockets to find that she had a hair tie in them.

She pulled it around her fingers and played with it for a few seconds before listening to the conversation the twins had. “This reminds me of the story…” one said. ‘A story? I wonder what kind of story’s they have in this strange land?’ She looked at the two and stopped playing with the hair tie. “I don’t think she’d be interested, though…” “Not interested!” She said aloud slightly offended.

“Excuse you but you know nothing about me or my interest.” She frowned, “And I’ll let you know I would like to hear this story. I’m new to this land and its always nice to hear story’s. My elders always told fantastic tales of grate pokemon.” She said but cut her self short not wanting to become more angry and make the two men leave.

Feeling the need to calm down she took the hair tie and put it in her hair so that her hair was out of her face in a ponytail. Taking a deep breath she sighed and looked at the men in front of her. “I’m sorry for losing my temper with you. I would really like to hear your story.” She looked away and felt a cold breeze blow by. “Also I would like to get out of this forest its kind of creepy and beginning to get cold.” She muttered out as she shoved her hands back in her pocket.

Oh, the audacity! Oh, the audacity! Such a silly girl wanted to know their name, without even the forethought to share her own. Well, as she said, their name was irrelevant… Likewise, by association, hers was as well. Was it not? He snickered, and other him chortled, and they looked at each other wildly as they sang.

Jamie let her self relax a little at the sound of a voice. “Oh hello, It’s always nice to meet new people don’t you know,” He sounded nicer then the the other two men she had met before so she found no need to panic. She jumped at the second voice not knowing it would be there to greet her as well. “Indeed, always such a pleasure,” No longer wanting to sit down as people approached her she stood and looked at the men only to have her heart sink. “More twins, grate.’ She looked over their clothes and took in all the detail she could.

“Now where are your manners? Tell us your name!” She was startled for a second as they spoke in unison. “Oh yes, sorry, I’m-” She caught her self as she thought of hoe they greeted her. “Now why should I tell you my name when you didn't tell me yours, but its irrelevant any ways I will still give you a proper greeting.” She said as she looked at their faces.

They were very similar but she was sure to find some difference between them. As she greeted them she went back to looking at their cloths. “It very nice to meet you two gentlemen as we-” She choked on her own saliva as she looked on their arms. They were covered in a red substance, blood. Jamie never liked blood it always made her feel scared and sick to her stomach. “Y-your bleeding.” She stuttered.

Her head was screaming at her that she was fine and that it was just blood. Something she had in her body as well but her body was slightly shaking. She took a deep breath and looked down. “Your fine Jamie its just a little blood your fine.” She whispered to herself. Pulling her self together she looked back up at the twins. “If its alright to ask, may I ask my you two are bleeding?” She asked and gestured to their arms. 

“It looks like it hurts and that we might need to go get that bandaged up” She suggested and looked around. She was still in the forest but it looked like there were no buildings around. “Where to go, where to go?” She wondered out loud and looked back at the twins. “Witch way should we go?” She asked knowing at some point they would get some where to get them help.

The girl ran with him for one more verse, before she suddenly forced herself away from the pond, and likewise, out of the race. Well that just wouldn’t do! He huffed out in irritation, a which set the birds and fish around him off balance. In a moment, they swayed, dissolved into liquid, and pooled into the pond. How utterly rude! What was a race with only one entrant? Boring, was what it was.

He was incredibly offended.

Or at least, he might be, could he remember what he’d been irritated about.

Blanket Under The Stars // Jamie and ??

Jamie smiled as she looked around at her pokemon playing with each other well Orion was sleeping but she didn’t mind. He always loved the red blanket she carried around and often slept on it when he had the chance. She chuckled and looked down at her not book over the recent notes she wrote. Tonight was her last night here in the down she was in and she hated leaving it but at the same time loved it.

She loved it because she didn’t battle any one or thing and didn’t have to take notes for any reason. She would just lay on her blanket in silence while every one was asleep and she would watch the stars in awe and thats when the five year old Jamie came out and she watched every light in the sky with big eyes.

The blue haired female wasn’t the only one who loved it too. Her pokemon loved the brake and often got snacks during the day they couldn’t have normally. They had sweet tooth's as well. Jamie loved to have snacks with them it was a grate way to bond with each other.

“Lunch time guys!” She called out and laid out three little dishes for every one. She smiled and ate one of her own treats. Jamie spent the night alone eating a few of her snacks. It may have been selfish but it was her time so her pokemon didn’t mind. She giggled as they all ate their treats. “Guys calm down your going to get sick if you eat them to fast.” She giggled as they all looked up before going back to their snacks.

When sunset came Jamie sent all her pokemon in to the poke-balls they called home. Jamie Placed them in her bag and smiled fixing the blanked to it was strait and wrinkle free. Finally feeling satisfied with the arrangement of the blanket she watched the sunset and the stars come out. She smiled and laid down resting her head on her hands and watched the miracle of light leaving to show even smaller lights.

She had been watching them for a few hours before suddenly having a flashlight shine in her eyes. “HEY!” She cried out and covered her eyes while siting up. She didn’t hear what they said as she rubbed her eyes. “What the heck was that for!? Shouldn’t you be asleep!? Gah that hurt!” She rambled on trying to get rid of the light outline that was following her every time she blinked.

He shuffled his cards as he watched her, eyes drifting lazily over her face.

Jamie was shocked by how the man was able to sound some what stern when he was explaining how “Good evening.” was a statement and not a question. she stood their not knowing what to do wondering if she should apologize or just stay silent but then he went off mumbling to him self so she guessed it wouldn’t matter.

Looking at the ground she kicked the dirt around her. Drawing little shapes in the dirt as she waited for him to stop talking to him self but she grew impatient. Clearing her thought she gained attention from the man but he only went back to rambling about he didn’t have her bag again.  “I have no bags on me, just cards, you see. You could try down the road. The bird doesn’t know many games, but he’s got direction, if there’s direction to be had. Oh yes, don’t you know, when there’s direction to be had, games are irrelevant–” Jamie was off and running down the road when he finished.

She didn’t here what he said as she left but she didn’t care she just wanted to get away from a crazed man. ‘He was weird.’ She thought looking back and noticed she couldn’t see him any more. Stopping she bent over leaning on her knees taking deep breaths. Some times when she ran she would get tired quickly and other times she wouldn’t but it didn’t matter she was soon back on her feet and walking down the road. 

She continued to walk down the seemingly never ending path until she heard singing in the distance. ‘Birds sing maybe its the bird he was talking about.’ nodding to herself she walked threw the few trees and the singing stopped but she continued to walk until she came upon a clearing with a lake in the middle. Smiling she ran towards it but what she didn’t notice was the man in the hat running to her.  “Goodness me, my dear, you must join in~! There’s fun to be had, such fun, such fun. Oh so much to be had indeed.”

Her eyes widened as she tried to stop but it was to late he took ahold of her arm and threw her tiny form in front of him. She stumble for a moment but quickly got back to running before the man could catch up and passably throw her again. They continued to run and Jamie was growing quite tired and out of breath. ‘When was this chase going to end?’ She wondered. Looking to her side she saw the forest.

After one last lap around the lake she dashed into the forest until she couldn’t see the clearing any more and stopped beside a tree siting and leaning against it. She closed her eyes and let her head rest against the tree while she was trying to catch her breath. ‘Please let me just find some one normal who can tell me where the cat man is so I can go home with me bag.’ She begged to herself even though that was very unlikely to happen in this strange world she was trapped in.

She sat enjoying the silence she had around knowing the crazy hat man wasn't around. The sound of a bush rustling made the girls eyes snap open.

The girl was clearly distressed, and some small ticking in the back of his mind told him that he should probably pay it a moment of attention. Though, that logic, like many of the concepts within his physical plane of existence, was irrelevant. This girl was as strange to him as he surely was to her; strange,stranger… Who was? Who wasn’t? Who wasn’t what…? Oh well. Irrelevant.

                                                                Always irrelevant.

Feeling annoyed and bothered by the strange mans actions Jamie quickly put a distance between the two of them. All the ear business he was talking about was Irrelevant and made her quite uncomfortable when he grabbed her ear. Jamie looked to her sides and rubbed her ear making sure he didn’t put anything on it before looking back at him.

To her is was clear that he had no idea where her bag was but maybe he would know where the cat man was. She was snapped out of her thoughts when he said he didn’t know her name. ‘I didn’t tell you because I thought you were a thief.’ She thought and frowned. Jamie was about to tell the man the answer he needed but he cut her off quicker then she could think. 

‘Their he goes again on another rant about his... name?’ She shook her head and slightly tuned him out. ‘Why does he look like the guy with cat ears...’ she pandered the idea for only a few seconds before hearing him mumble a word that made the young girl quite upset. “Irrelevant?” She asked looking up at him. “Did you say your name was irrelevant?” She didn’t know why it was making herself so upset but it did. “Thats not true, no parent would name their child that and your name has to be important to some one even if that some one is only you.” 

A name was an important thing in Jamie’s mind and she may not have known why, but maybe it was because of how young she was. ‘I should apologize for accusing him.’ The blue eyed female was about to speak when she saw a deck of cards in front of her. “Hm?”

Hesitant she stepped forward and looked at the cards. “Pick a card, any card~!”  Jamie quickly picked a card, she quickly flipped the card towards her but had it quickly snatched out of her hand. There was that word again “Irrelevant” The word that seemed to come up in this conversation quite often. ‘How is not knowing a card irrelevant to a card trick? wasn’t the whole point to “Read my mind” to find the card?’ She wondered.

The two had been lost in their own world until the man in the hat spoke up. “Good evening?” She mumbled back in confusion, ‘its the middle of the day. At leased by what I remember.’ She looked around her quickly. “What tim-” she was cut off,  “Would you care for a card trick~?” Again the cards were held out in front of her. “Sir...” she hesitated. “you were in the middle of one just before you asked me to do this one.” She wondered if the man knew what he was doing. 

“Did you forget already?” She asked with slight concern. ‘This man needs help.’ She knew that and needed to think of some way to help him, the only idea she could think of is if she had her bag witch might have had something to help him... maybe. “Sir, I’m going to ask you once okay? Do you know where your twin with the cat ears is?” Jamie had put the two men as siblings and as twins so she had some confidence in what she was doing.

“Please I need to find that bag it has something very important to me and they are my prize possessions and my family so if you know where the cat guy is I can help you then I will leave you alone ok?” She looked at the man with pleading eyes her pokemon needed her and she needed them, and she was going to find them one way or another.

planetary-man:

Not many tourists visited the far east edge of Sunnyshore City. It was where his building was isolated; the very company which had evolved from an organization most ordinary folk despised with a passion. Saturn couldn’t name a single day when a person outside the usual workforce and law enforcement division had willingly step foot inside the daunting lobby. Not that he cared. If the populace chose to leave him in the shadows, who was he to complain?

Indifference was much better than loathing, anyway.

Jamie ran and ran to get away from the pokemon that had been chasing her and her pokemon. The blue haired girl was training her pokemon when the pokemon came out of no where, she fought the new threat not knowing how strong it was. Her pokemon were badly ingered and panic struck the girl, so she ran. 

It was all a blur, the run, she does remember tripping a few times but she kept track of her pokemon and only a few papers fell out of her bag. She had finally lost the pokemon but she didn’t know where she was, she had looked in her bag for the map she had but it was gone. More panic filled the girls mind as she looked around. 

‘Pokemon center.’ She ran around trying to find the place she was looking for but had no luck. She couldn’t keep running, finally she stopped and was taking uneven breaths trying to slow her heart rate. She didn’t know what to do she didn’t see any one around that could help her and all she felt was like she wanted to cry.

Jamie jumped at the sound of a male behind her. She quickly turned around facing him and took a step back. “Excuse me miss, are you quite alright? Do you know where you are?” The panicked girl nodded her head and was still taking big uneven breaths. She didn’t notice that in her worry she had held and hugged her bag close to her chest.

“I-I know w-here I am.” She stuttered between breaths. “A-are you lost?” She was trying to sound bold and like her normal self but the shaky breaths were not helping the panicked girl.

She made quick work to follow after the strange cat man. Her blue hair swung behind her as she ran. Jamie ran as fast as she could to chase him but she soon lost track of him. She groaned but didn’t stop running. He was much taller then her and he seemed to be teleporting so it wasn’t to much of a surprise she lost him.

She looked to her left and right in the forest for any hints of the stranger. Jamie had heard of people having their bags stolen but she didn’t think that is would happen to her and in a place she was unfamiliar with. It didn’t matter once she had her bag back she you take notes of the new place and what new stars she could see. Jamie had already been lost in her own world to notice the man stepping out on her path.

Looking forward Jamie quickly stood on her heels to not bump in to the new stranger. She looked up at the stranger who had stepped in her path. “Hey move I have...” She noticed that the man looked mike the man who stole her bag but different he didn’t have cat ears. “Hey where are your ears?” She questioned looking at his tall hat.

‘Really “Where are your ears?”, Jamie you need your bag.’ She shook her head and put well tried to make an angry frown. “Where is my bag I want it back.” She said in a strong voice while looking around him to see if he was hiding it behind his back. “I know you took it so don’t try to trick me I remember a face cloths won’t make a difference.” She pointed out looking up at him waiting for the return of her bag.

Angrily taping her foot she crossed her arms at the man. “Hm? Where is my bag are you going to give it back or not!?” She was growing impatient even though she wanted her bag back she didn’t want to have to resort to violence. Jamie was not used to fighting with out her pokemon so yeah she was a little scared. She also felt slightly vulnerable with out her pokemon.

Cold Feet// Jamie &???

Jamie had a habit of sleeping in the poke-centers when she was traveling witch meant she would be alone in the building with maybe one nurse that stayed to watch over her when it was dark and creepy like but she didn’t mind because she liked the calmness of the dark. There was also this little hope in the back of her mind that she would find a wandering ghost pokemon but she has yet to find one.

Blue eyelashes fluttered open and pupils dilated to see in the dark as the young girl sat up on the bench she was sleeping on. “Hm.” Hummed the girl as she looked around towards a window. Small wight dots softly fell from the sky on the other side of the glass sup riding the girl. Turing her eyes she looked back at the windows then towards another one seeing the same thing. Setting her feet on the floor the girl stood rubbing her arms for comfort and walked over to the glass doors and saw that her thought was correct. It was snowing. 

Stepping out her mouth became slightly agape as she looked over streets with all the snow that had built up during the hours of the night. She could see the small gust of stem that escaped with every breath. Jamie’s smile soon appeared as her eyes lit up. Adding a light pressure to the door Jamie took her first step in the snow with confidents soon followed by another and only to be repeated a few more times. As the cold wrapped around her, her heart beat faster with all the excitement and she continued to play and run around.

What felt like a few minutes to the girl turned out to be an hour and she hadn’t released how far she had gotten from the town, not with all the snow that covered every thing and burred every thing in the distance. She finally noticed when she looked down at herself to see red fingers and feet that were numb from the cold and that she had very little warmth from the thin fabric of her pajamas she had worn to sleep. Crossing her arms around her self she looked side to side. “What am I going to do?” She continued to look at her surroundings before speaking up. “Hello! Is any one there?”

Wondertrails/Alice in wonderland AU/ Jamie & ???

Spinning around Jamie looked at the world around her. Tall hills, strange trees, bright colored swirls in the sky. Just what place was the girl in? This world was strange and Jamie was not enjoying it. ‘Some one has to be here to tell me whats going on.’ Thought the blue haired girl as she walked one way of the long path.  

The walk was long and very, lets put it plain and simple, interesting. The animals she saw on her walk were very similar to pokemon but all together were nothing like them. They didn't act nore when they spoke to watch other did they do their normal call more of a “noise”. Jamie found it weird but worthy to take note of. Reattaching to her side she planed on reaching in to her bag and grabbing her note book but to her surprise it wasn’t their. 

“Wha-” She looked down and around. ‘My pokemon.’ Picking up the pace Jamie turned around and ran back to where she had woken up. Arriving to the destination she saw a figure in the distance. “Hey! Did you take my bag?!” She asked but when the stranger seemed confused, Jamie let it be and looked around the area.

‘Its not here, where could it be!?’ Panicked the girl as she looked threw other bushes. Every now and again she glanced back at the stranger to watch what they were doing and by what she could tell they had no bag as well. “Exuse me did you come if any luggage?” Asked a strange voice. Shooting up Jamie looked at the new stranger. 

It was human for what she could tell other then the cat ears. “Bags. I came here with a bag have you seen it?” She asked the person in front of her. “These?” He held up two bags, Jamie recognized hers instantly. “Hey give that back!” She reached out to grab it only to have it disappear and reappear further away  along with the stranger. “Tsk~ If you want it you better play the game my dear.” He giggled before magically appearing farther and farther away.

“Hey come one lets get our bags back!” Jamie  said as she quickly started down the path the “cat” took.
