Joey's mind was already so far in calculating his game strategy that he didn't even realize the thundering noise wasn't his heart pounding. His reaction time was slow and he didn't fully understand what was happening even when the snow was coming in. He was transfixed. It seemed to be happening in slow motion now, and it was beautiful. The snow unfurled and exploded into the room with the force of devastating nature. He could do nothing but stare at it, then he was snapped back into reality when a pair of hands grabbed around his arms and pulled.

He suddenly found himself standing very close to that boy, Darryn, with a Pokemon he knew to be a Rapidash standing in front of them. Her bright flames were just as beautiful as the snow, but seeing her reminded Joey of something. Frantically, he looked around and called out, "Claw!" Where was his Pidgey? He needed to know, to get to him, to protect him. He subconsciously struggled against Darryn, but the bigger boy was too much to struggle against. Luckily, Claw seemed to appear before him and Joey didn't understand why. Was this a dream?

After that, Joey was engulfed in fire, as was Claw and Darryn, but it wasn't burning him. It must be a dream. After that, the incident passed so fast. Snow unfurled and buried everything around them, but the fire protected them and the snow fell about them in a circle. Once everything stopped moving, Joey felt Darryn let go of him, and hadn't realized he had been hanging onto him. He felt a little regretful he let go so soon, because he suddenly felt very weak, like his heart was racing ahead of him and he couldn't keep up. He fell to his knees and hugged Claw before clicking him back into his PokeBall. He was safer in there.

Crystal apparently was alright, but then Joey looked around for Vincent, and started to call out his name when Darryn told him that they had to move now, and help would come for him later. He felt relief at hearing he was alive. But for how much longer? Joey brushed the thought out of his head. This was out of his hands now. He had to worry about himself. He followed Darryn and Crystal as his Rapidash (November?) melted a path through the snow, looking for the doors. Except, the group was finding no doors. With the snow now covering everything, the room was harder to navigate, much like walking down a street at night. It was too different to tell, and Joey turned around several times looking for something familiar. He heard Crystal's suggestion and quickly refuted it.

"It's stone, I don't know of anything that can dig through stone, unless it has a drill on its head. And it's too dangerous anyways. It could possibly cause all the snow here to pummel down through to another floor and endanger more people, and who know where we'll end up? No...it won't work." Joey racked his brain, until he saw a happy sight. The Ariados from earlier! The large Spider-like Pokemon descended from the ceiling on a strong thread, and Joey moved through the snow towards her. His clothes were getting wet, but he didn't care because as they were scrubs material they dried fast. Placing his hand upon the Ariados, careful of her horn, he looked into her eyes and talked. "You've lived here for quite awhile, maybe you know where the door is?" The Ariados nodded her head and took off in a direction slightly right from where they were heading.

"Darryn, Crystal, over here!" The two trainers saw and followed closely behind him. It was rough getting through the snow and across the room as there were a lot of obstacles and debris to overcome, and the Ariados had to wait for them several times. Joey started lagging behind. He still hadn't shed the effects of the poor environment afforded to his youth and nearly entire life. When the Ariados finally pointed out the location of the door, she scuttled back as the graceful Rapidash melted the snow away to reveal the door. It was one of the heavier, more ornate doors, but Joey couldn't make anything of the material. It looked to be stone.

Going over in his head all the possibilities of his Pokemon's abilities, he came up with squat and sighed. He felt so useless. A baby Igglybuff couldn't do anything to a stone door. Not even sing it to sleep. Claw was basically powerless, and probably already used up as it is. Joey's Seel, Jet, was the most probable answer, but even a long-shot of a probability. He had a powerful headbutt attack, but not powerful enough for this. Joey remembered that water is strong against rock, but Jet has yet to produce a full on water attack. Are his Pokemon really that weak? Joey started seriously thinking that he needed to do some hardcore training, if he could manage to get out of here alive, he thought with a cringe.

In conclusion, Joey turned to his two companions, shrugged and sighed, and stepped into the background saying, "I have no idea what to do now..." Give us a miracle, Darryn.

Tuesday's Pack



Reilly had been hanging in the back, away from the trio. The only one on the team that he knew was Darryn, and he didn't care to associate with the pretty boy if he didn't have to. It was no secret that the two of them didn't like each other. There was something strange about that boy, and Reilly didn't like him.

Still, he had to admit that Pretty Boy was fairly useful. There was no way that they wouldn't have suffered some injuries had that snow hit them dead on. The flashy Rapidash, with help from that bitch of a Vulpix, had done wonders to keep the snow from reaching them. Reilly hated to admit it (and he never would aloud), but they probably owed their lives - or at least their well-being - to Darryn's pokemon and his quick thinking.

Standing in the back of their small group, his arms crossed over his chest, he turned to the girl with a raised eyebrow as she suggested digging. "The walls and floor are made of stone. What are you - stupid?" He curled his lip at the girl, and then turned away swiftly before she could reply, walking past the others to stand next to the pretty boy.

"Well, it looks like you're leading this shindig, Sparkles." He crossed his arms and leaned up against the wall, raising an eyebrow at the pretty boy. "Guess we're doomed, huh?"

PANE: Darryn Kellor



"Oh." Darryn raised an eyebrow to find Reilly stalking their way. "I see you managed to dig yourself out." He looked the boy up and down again. "Pity."

Reilly's mouth began to open but Darryn raised a finger.

"Time and a place, Haystack Head." He cut him short, secretly a little relieved that someone else had managed to drag themselves free with seemingly no injuries. He turned to face the problem before them. The wild Ariados had successfully led them to a door but as Joey (and Reilly) had identified, it was going to take a lot to break their way through into another room since the walls and the located door were made of stone and its hinges were shattered. It wouldn't be moving any time soon.

"Aww crap." Darryn muttered to himself, chewing his lip in thought. He hated to admit it but he was at a loss. Since he had left Gigarte to start his trainer journey, Darryn had never been in the driving seat of his adopted team. Even at the very beginning, Jaima and Mindy had both had more experience and it had been the girl who had led them all the way to Lenoilia and even a little beyond. After that, Darryn had gone solo (who would consider travelling with Darck to be part of a team?) which had resulted in disaster on Mount Carello before Jaima showed up to save him. Since then, his friend had led him, a younger girl called Tuesday and an experience trainer from Johto, Meiko, from Arasam all the way to Petropolis in the deep south. True, Darryn had helped out along the way but he wasn't a leader.

Another fault he found within himself, and one that he had experienced time and again, was his inability to think up strategies on his feet from scratch. Yes, he could train new moves and combinations into a repertoire. Yes, he could select them and use them as they were needed. But what could he do when the situation called for something he had not experienced before or prepared for?

<Lady? Can you contact Mercury and see how far away Jaima is? I'm sure he could help.> Darryn fidgeted nervously.

<I will not beg for help from an anorexic, blue-haired, namby-pamby, sarcastic little->

<Fine! Jeez! Can you at least make sure they are ok? And check on Meiko and Tuesday, too... Oh! And Pan!>

<I already have.> Lady yawned. <There is psychic interference all over the castle since so many communication channels are open. Vonmoto's Pokemon, however, assures me that no-one is dead and that if we follow this particular path we will soon end up meeting with another group of survivors.>

"Oh, thank God." Darryn rubbed his head. Everyone stared at him blankly. "I mean, right! Let's um... let's get through this door then! I need you all to stand aside for this and brace yourselves for any more cave-ins - it won't be smooth."

The three trainers shrank back behind Darryn as November melted a runway towards the offending door. Lady remained patiently at Darryn's feet as he selected the Luxury Ball at his belt and signalled his Rapidash to move out of the way.

"For this task, we only have one choice." Darryn said as he rolled the Pokeball in his hand. "I choose, Zulu!"

The Luxury Ball exploded open, sparks and soft orange light expelling from within and materialising into the solid form of Darryn's Rampardos. He heard whispers of awe from behind him and couldn't help but give himself an inwards pat on the back. But the time for gloating was long since past.

"Zulu, I need to to use your most powerful Headbutt on that door." Darryn spoke to his fossil Pokemon who rolled his eyes with distaste in a 'awww do I have to?' expression but readied himself all the same. "And Lady? Power it up with Extrasensory like you did back at DeBrody's - we need to to be a Zen Headbutt if we want to max our chances of breaking through." Lady liquid moved to her feet to stand behind Zulu, her eyes glowing blue with Psychic energy.

Zuluj took off like a rocket, roaring his defiance at the target while lowering his glowing blue head and going in for a full-out charge of aa Zen Headbutt. Darryn squeezed his fists together and grit his teeth as the Rampardos connected with the door with a resounding CRACK that sounded more like the Pokemon's neck had broken. Thankfully, however, an enormous split appeared in the door as Zulu rebounded, snorting angrily at the target.

"Good! Now take it down with a Hammer Arm!"

Zulu roared once more and surged ahead, punching with all his might. The broken door caved instantly, crumbling before the Rampardos' rage and revealing an empty hallway beyond. Reilly made a sarcastic comment under his breath but Darryn didnt rise to the bait. It seemed no snow had managed to penetrate that particular hall - something for which Darryn was very pleased. He recalled November and Zulu swiftly, clipping them back to his belt before picking up Lady and moving to the doorway.

"OK, guys. Let's get the hell out of here."

The next Pokemon that Darryn sent out really sent Joey back into the insecurity corner with the inexplicable urge to hide all of his Pokemon forever. Once the Rampardos broke open the door, Joey did his best to shake off those feelings. It seemed his experience with Darryn was just making him vow again and again to get better. Maybe that's the true purpose of a good trainer? Joey didn't know, but he did know that every Pokemon of Darryn's so far was extremely Kick Ass.

The group now consisting of Joey, Darryn, Crystal, and some other boy that wasn't in Joey's favor crawled and stepped over the debris of the now devastated stone door and into the hall. No snow had gotten into it, but it was cracked along one side and seemed to moved over and crooked. They kept running through different halls. Most of the way was travel worthy, while a couple of doors needed a quick combined effort of the boys moving debris or lifting a smaller door that had been rocked off its hinges.

Not much later, the group squeezed through a splintered door frame into a room to relax. Joey, for one, was out of breath after traversing the now-wrecked Castle Vonmoto. The room they appeared to be in must have been the library. Some furniture lay strewn about, and most of the bookcases were upright, except for a few along the far wall that had tilted. Joey decided to catch his breath by checking out the books. He needed anything to get his mind off of this crisis. He felt like he was about to hyperventilate. His expression quickly calmed over the books, indulging in a flashback to the small Daycare in Agate Village, and the skimpy, worn bookcase of even more worn books that Joey basically learned from. These books are much better (even after surviving an avalanche), and there are a lot more than he ever had his hands on. One older looking book caught his eye, but like a lot of things, it was out of his reach. He took one Poke ball out of his front scrubs pocket, and called out Kimiko.

She appeared on an empty space in the shelf with her arms stretched out wide and joyous, probably immune to the fact that an avalanche had just rocked the Castle. Her bright eyes looked up to Joey, ready for his request. He picked her up and said, "Hey beautiful, see that book up there?" They both looked up and Kimiko nodded. "Can you get it for me?" Kimiko answered his question by inflating herself up to that shelf and started pushing the book over to him. It tipped off the shelf and Joey caught it with a hurried thanks. He opened the book and started reading while Kimiko enjoyed herself by walking along the shelf.

While Joey was flipping through the book, Kimiko found a book of her own that she would like. It was colorful and looked to have a lot of pictures. When she reached to pull it out, something from the other side pulled
it back. She pulled again with renewed ambition, only to have it pulled back, and out the other side, with her going along with it! Joey, hearing her cry, looked up to where she had been.

"Kimiko!" Joey ran along the other side, book in hand, to look for his baby Pokemon.

What is going on?

"Hey, check this out." Darryn beckoned the others to join him at a splintered door frame.

"What's in there?" Crystal asked eagerly. "Is it a way out?"

"Hmm. Don't think so." Darryn ducked his head inside. "But we should probably take a few minutes to grab a drink and a little rest before we move on. Let's have a look inside."

He stepped through, with the other trainers in tow, to find themselves in a poorly lit room with many bookcases strewn about the room. Some bookcases were standing firm and untouched but a whole row at the back of the room had toppled over where the ceiling had collapsed in much the same way the one in the playground room had. Snow and ice decorated those book like sparkling diamonds protecting the pages within.

*Hmm... it's so pretty... maybe I could use ice in an effective appeal move...*

The team appeared to spread out to tend to themselves so Darryn moved to a small reading table to sit and take a drink of water. Lady sprang to the table to sat down in front of him.

<I do not like this place, Prince Darryn.>
She said, her usual lofty tone carrying an edge. Darryn opened his Inner Eyes and took note of her Emotaglow. It was purple with a sickly yellow-green tinge. She was mildly afraid but predominantly annoyed. It was understandable.

"Don't worry about it." Darryn cooed as he smoothed her fur. "We'll be out of here in no time and we can get back to Petropolis for the Contest. Lady seemed to tense at the mention of the city but made no comment. "How much further is it, anyway?"

<Well, if this Calypso creature is correct, we should be meeting with one of the other teams three halls from now. From there it won't be difficult to reach the basement.> Lady informed him, each of her six tails waving warily. The stopped dead for an instant and her eyes widened. As soon as the moment came it had passed and Lady was sitting more at ease. <And it seems the blonde male is alive and well - ChromeDome is with him.>

"Thank god." Darryn whispered to himself. "What about the girls?"

<I cannot break through the interference.> Lady replied quickly.

"Really? but Mercury managed to-"

<I cannot break through.> Lady snipped in, looking away with shame.

"No worries." Darryn stroked her curls fondly. "I'm sure they're all alright. It'll take more than a bit of snow to slow Meiko down and I doubt Tuesday and Pan would have many problems."

Trainer and Pokemon rested a little longer before the quiet was broken by Joey's cry.

"Kimiko!"

"Joey!?" Darryn got to his feet quickly and clicked for Lady to follow. They trotted to where Joey was rushing about the bookcases frantically, barely able to see his face in the dim lighting. "Joey? What's wrong?"

Completely muffled within his white icy prison, Tyson's hand was waving for assistance. With Blaze being his only help, a quick Ember melted down the snow for him, allowing Tyson to breathe and finally clamber out. After knocking the snow off of himself, he looked around for anyone to be in the room with him.

"Aw man," Tyson yelled in frustration, "I'm behind everyone else!" Tyson, without another word, ran off in search of the others, noticing the splintered door as he ran. "Darryn? Joey? Where are you guys?" Blaze, who was running right next to him, heard voices, but didn't quite know where they were coming from...

Joey zipped to the other side of the bookcase only to see a shadow speed away to another bookcase. He raced through the bookcases following the suspicious shadow and shouting Kimiko's name. He heard Darryn coming up behind him. By this time, Joey was nearer to the back of the dim library where the snow crystallized bookcases were domino-ed against each other. The shadow finally accumulated into a spherical entity that Joey had only glimpsed before. The shadow unfurled to reveal a screaming Igglybuff in its grasp, and the lights flickered in the library while a curdling laugh resonated throughout the room.

"Haun.....Haun....Haun....Hauuun!" The shadow solidified into an identity that Joey knew as the Pokemon Haunter, before turning back into the swirling, pulsating abyss of blackened fear. Of course, Joey thought.

"Leave her alone!" Joey shouted while maximizing Jet's Pokeball and tossing it in the air. "Go save Kimiko, Jet!" Joey shouted in an unwonted way. He had always prided himself on his calm exterior, but seeing his own baby Pokemon so afraid, screaming and wiggling in the malicious shadowy grip, disintegrated his serenity completely. As he realized this, he gritted his teeth and tried to get in control of the situation as Jet materialized from energy in front of him.

Immediately, the usually fun-loving Seel put on his battle face with a defiant "Seel!" bark and lowered his horn menacingly. Battle time. Joey smoothly slid into calculating mode. The Haunter was too high up for a Headbutt, so it was a relatively easy choice on which strategy to use. "Jet! Use a Growl attack!"

The Seel braced himself against the floor and sucked in enough air to imitate a Spheal balloon, before throwing his head back in a threatening growl. The Growl attack hit the Haunter and made it waver. It lost some altitude in its loss of focus, low enough for a Headbutt. "Jet, take it out with a Headbutt now!" The Seel flopped its way forward before hitting a length of frost on the floor, making it gain momentum in sliding. When he got close enough, he threw himself up into a headbutt, horn aimed right at the Haunter. He flew forward in the attack, and the look of surprise on both the Seel's and Joey's face was priceless when the attacking Pokemon flew right through the laughing Haunter. Darryn leaned over to Joey and said nonchalantly, "Normal attacks like Headbutt has no effect on Ghost-type Pokemon like Haunter." Joey's self-esteem and pride plummeted and he made a mental note to follow his shame spiral later, when he had time.

However, Jet's attack did bump Kimiko out of the Haunter's grip, and then its look of surprise was great revenge. When Jet met the ground, he quickly gained traction and turned to double back underneath the Haunter and catch Kimiko, who was now smiling and laughing, feeling safe on Jet's back. Jet skidded back to Joey, and the Haunter was looking furious, having his toy stolen. The fully formed Haunter turned towards Joey and his two Pokemon in front of him and started gathering a dark energy between his two detached claws while exuding a malevolent aura flow.

He was wearing a tag, Joey noticed. But he didn't have time to point that out to Darryn before it started to use a Shadow Ball technique.

“Lady!”

Darryn’s Vulpix sprang into action, nimbly jumping Jet and the rescued Kimiko with a single bound and landing on splayed feet. Even as the dark sphere of ghostly power was fired from the Haunter’s hands, Lady spat free a swirling green orb of her own. Shadow Ball met Energy Ball in a hard collision that exploded on impact, kicking up dust from the surrounding bookcases to cloud the trainers and their Pokemon. Darryn started coughing almost immediately, ducking low and backing away while nudging Joey to follow.

“Ghost Pokemon are really hard to battle and it won’t be any easier in the dark – we should get out of here!” Darryn urged the shorter trainer back through the library, Lady following behind Jet as he lumbered after them. She kept darting glances back, tails flicking menacingly, while she brought up the rear.

<Prince Darryn! The spectre has a tag!> Lady informed Darryn hastily, darting ahead to cut her trainer off from leaving the room. Crystal, who had heard the commotion came running over, looking worried, and Reilly wasn't far behind her.

<So what?! We’re leaving!>

<No! I will win this competition!>

Darryn glared down at his proud Vulpix. She had always been known for her ballsy, bitchy, vain, selfish nature but never had Darryn known her to be competitive unless it was on a stage. Something within the Fox Pokemon had changed, that much was clear. For her to want to continue the treasure hunt even after the apparent avalanche…

<I will not lose to the others!>

<You’re bothered about Jaima and the others beating us to the prize?!>
Darryn signalled for Joey to move on but he held firm next to Darryn, not wishing to leave the library on his own. <It doesn’t matter any more – the treasure hunt is over. We can just leave.>

<But what if they have already gotten all three tags?> Lady demanded, waving her tails rhythmically. <I will not lose!>

Joey and Crystal hovered expectantly by the doorway, waiting for Darryn. Reilly simply crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow, waiting for an explanation of what was going on. It was just then that Tyson’s face appeared in the doorway, looking extremely relieved to have found them. Blaze, his Cyndaquil jumped into the room quickly, sniffing at the dusty air. Darryn sighed. There were four of them – it should be easy enough to out-number the Haunter and get the tag – but if any of the other trainers found themselves battling 1-on-1 with the Ghost type, they’d be in for a good deal of bruising. The Haunter would be no match for a Pokemon of Lady’s strength but it could fight far better in the dark than she could, even with her psychic abilities.

“Guys, before we leave we have two options.” Darryn told them all, holding up his fingers to count off their choices. “One. We just make a run for the basement and get out of here in one piece. Or two. We try to get the last two tags before we go and try to win this treasure hunt competition thing. There is a Haunter in here that has a tag that we need and we know that the Tyrogue back in the playground room have the other. If we work together, we can get both and move on in no time but we all have to agree – our safety comes first before any competition.”

He looked around the collected trainers and shrugged.

“So, what’s it to be?”

After breathing heavily for a few moments, Tyson began to gather his thoughts into speech, gaining the attention of Darryn.

"I say," Tyson began, swallowing before opening his mouth again, "that we stick around and get the other tags." With his muscles tightening and his pulse now slowly returning to normal, Tyson felt the weakness in his legs set in. With a wobble and a deep breath, Tyson placed his palms onto his kneecaps, breathing extremely heavy and dripping sweat onto the floor. "Phew! Man, am I outta shape," Tyson said, looking up at the rest of the group.

"I've been thinking this game was useless since we started," Reilly snapped, reaching to his belt and pulling off a pokeball, "but I really hate haunter." He tossed the pokeball into the air, letting it flash open, fireballs exploding in accordance to the seal as a short theme song played. A growlithe appeared from the flames, running lighting across the snow.

"Phoenix, odor sleuth, if you would, so we can finish this stupid battle."

The female growlithe's dark green eyes glowed red, and beams abruptly shot from their depths at the haunter. Odor Sleuth took its effect, allowing the haunter to be struck by moves of a normal, as well as a fighting type.

This would be over in but a moment.

"Phoenix, go at it with flame wheel. Indiana, mach punch."

The monferno hanging from Reilly's shoulder let go, landing on the ground and kicking off into a flip with a shrieking cry. He landed in front of the haunter and pulled his fist back, red and orange energy surging around it, before he slammed his powered fist into the haunter's ugly face, sending the startled ghost pokemon reeling with a cry of "haun haun haun..."

Indiana leapt backward with a flip, right over top of the flame wheel that Phoenix sent hurtling at the haunter.

Reilly gave a mocking yawn of boredom, making sure to glance back and catch the pretty boy's eye. He wasn't the only one with kickass pokemon - Reilly's were even better.

"Indiana, fury swipes and blaze kick!"

With a shriek, the monferno swiped his claws at the haunter, digging his nails deep into the creature's ectoplasmic flesh with every swipe, shocking the already confused haunter further by the possibility of such a manuever. Before the haunter could recover, Indiana's leg was surrounded by fire, and he aimed a kick at the ghost pokemon's head.

"Lady, use energy ball!"

Reilly smirked. "Finally decided to the join th- HEY!" Reilly spun to face Darryn when the green glowing ball of energy slammed into Indiana, rather than the haunter. "What do you think you're doing?"

"The pokemon holding tags belong to Mr. Vonmoto," Darryn said sharply. "We're not supposed to hurt them."

Reilly clenched his hands into fists at his sides, searching for something to say. In all truth, he had forgotten about that, and had been frustrated that Darryn's pokemon had saved them. He had been caught up in the idea of looking cooler than the pretty boy in front of a crowd, and instead, he had screwed up.

There were about ten seconds where he thought he might try to explain himself, but then his pride kicked back in, and he turned to his growlithe in anger. "Phoenix, roar."

The growlithe obeyed instantly, turning to the haunter and throwing her head forward as she roared viciously. The haunter cried out in terror and fled through the wall, dropping the tag in its haste to pass through something solid where they couldn't follow.

Reilly recalled Phoenix and Indiana, as he turned swiftly. "There," he said, as he shoved past Darryn, pushing the boy out of the way roughly with his shoulder, "it's not hurt."

He ignored the lot of them and kept on walking.

"What a douche." Darryn sneered after Reilly's back as he stalked from the room. "I really can't stand that kid."

The other three trainers all shifted uneasily. Clearly Darryn and Reilly's little exchange of words had made them uncomfortable and rightly so. Darryn flushed red with embarrasment and shrugged to the collated trainers.

"Sorry about that, guys." He apologised with a regretful shake of his head. "We shouldn't have done that - we just don't get on, that's all."

"Clearly." Crystal muttered.

<Lady, where is Reilly going?> Darryn asked his Pokemon with a tad of worry. <He shouldn't be walking off like that - brat or not.>

<I am afraid he is just getting anywhere that is away from you, Prince Darryn.> Lady replied with a lofty sniff. <Good riddance.>

<Aww, dammit. Can you let Master Vonmoto know that he is wandering off so someone can find and guide him to the basement?>

<As you wish, Prince Darryn.>

The atmosphere in the dusty library had fallen like a lead balloon after the outburst between Co-Ordinator and trainer but the original question still remained. Did they complete the treasure hunt or not? True, it was dangerous to waste time in getting down to the basement but Darryn felt responsible for Lady's happiness and the other trainers' safety. At least asking them gave them the oppotunity to dispute continuing with the original mission.

"So, everyone? Do we go for the final tag?" Darryn asked, his stomach pitting with guilt that Reilly had run away because of him.

Sweet Team



Joey recalled his now relieved Seel and Igglybuff in slight shame. It may have been him in trouble, but two other clearly experienced trainers had completely stepped in and taken over. While he didn't really like the thought, he knew realistically it had saved him. He indulged in his shame spiral now more than ever because he too, like the trainer with the Monferno and Growlithe, had attacked with the intent to hurt, and while his attack hadn't done anything, he was now greatly relieved that it hadn't, otherwise it could have been a grave mistake. He didn't remember to not hurt the Pokemon. He reasoned through it like this: Since it made the first move, and the Castle had just been rocked by a devastating avalanche, this was an extremely different situation, where survival and safety were made a priority, and Joey subconsciously assumed in the back of his mind that all previous bets were off; new rules reigned.

Another reasoning went like this: If all possible, it was best not to worsen the situation, and follow the golden rule of not hurting the Pokemon of the Castle. And since it was possible, there was no need to do otherwise. Joey reasoned himself through a resolution that everything worked out for the best, and his Pokemon were just too little to play with the big boys right now. He inwardly cringed at the last phrase. He looked up and finally came back into his physical surroundings from his long line of thought and realized that something had happened, and the other boy was gone, and Darryn was looking troubled.

"Sorry about that, guys." He apologized with a regretful shake of his head. "We shouldn't have done that - we just don't get on, that's all."

Joey was curious as to what happened exactly between the two, but chalked it up to rivalry. He looked around for the other boy, and concluded he must have left. Darryn was now looking with a far-off look in his eye, and his Vulpix had the same look. The short black-clad boy decided to let it be and walked over to where the Haunter had fled, trying not to draw attention to himself, and started playing with his dog tag around his neck while he looked around for the tag. It had fallen in a small pile of snow after clattering against the solid wall, and he quickly wiped his dog tag free of fingerprints with his sleeve and stooped to pick up the tag. Then he quickly back-stepped away from the wall, slightly afraid of the possibility of the Haunter's return.

He started walking back towards the group in time to hear Darryn say, "So, everyone? Do we go for the final tag?" with a catch in his voice. Something was troubling him, Joey finally clued in on, but he wasn't one to trouble with human emotions, and then he felt his own guilt considering that boy had saved him at least twice now.

Taking out his Spinda plushie that he had won back in Barley, he wrapped the tag securely around its neck. Now they were both wearing necklaces and pendants. Then he turned back to the group after tucking the plushie away into his front scrubs pocket opposite of the one holding his Pokeballs in order to hide it, although he didn't know why.

"I say, we go after the final tag. We've come this far, and we know who has the other tag." Joey spoke up, hoping to be acknowledged by the group instead of drowned out in other chatter like usual.

"So we're going to get the last tag, I guess..." Darryn inwardly sighed. Lady stretched out her muscles as though preparing herself for the extra effort but the smug tint to her eyes was plain for all to see. After he had unofficially been appointed the group's leader, Darryn had felt that safety should come first for every human and Pokemon following behind him but if they were going to forego that themselves, who was he to stop them?

"Well, I don't think those Tyrogue are going to be easy to dig out," Darryn started looking between the trainers with some thought, "but there are bound to be other Pokemon in the castle that have tags too, right? So if we bump into any along the way to the basement we can just get it and keep heading on our way."

<I can locate the tag.> Lady announced to Darryn privately, her eyes already glowing a hazy blue.

<But what about the interference from the other psychics?>
Darryn asked quickly but got no response as his Vulpix clearly strained her mind to reach out into the castle. There was a long wait involved, Lady's brows furrowing deeply as she struggled to explore through the walls of the castle with her mind alone. From previous experience, Darryn knew that Lady's capabilities were a lot greater than simply scanning a castle but with all of the psychic action amid the stone walls she was coming up against barriers she had never had to cross before.

<It's ok, Lady - you can stop.> Darryn told her softly, with more than a little worry in his thought-voice. Joey moved as though to speak but stopped himself as a low growl began in Lady's throat. WIth a cough, she pitched forward and collapsed in a heap, blood trickling from her nose.

"Lady!" Darryn scooped up his Vulpix faster than a Kangaskhan with child, cradling her to his chest protectively.

<Corridor. Left. Third right. Second door... on right...> She finished slowly, daring Darryn to mother him any more. He bit back his response of her being folish to try something so difficult and instead encouraged the others to follow him back into the depths of the castle. They all followed willingly as Darryn brought them to the spot where Lady had inidcated and nodded at the door for one of the others to step forward.

The hall they had come down was relatively untouched by snow but from the looks of things the room beyond had suffered the same fate as the playground room as ice crept from under the door.

Darryn's hand reached out to the door handle to push it open but was frozen short by mere centimeters as a deafeninng rumble echoed along the passageway. His head flicked to the left in unison with the sounds, turning towards the source of the noise with wide eyes.

"W-what was that?!" Joey edged nervously closer to Darryn as the Co-Ordinator's hand instinctively went to his belt. Lady tensed in Darryn's arms, her ears pricking up to their full height despite her weakend state.

"Another avalanche?" Crystal supplied, peering into the dark corridor nervously.

Another ground-shaking rumble sent tremors through the trainers' feet but this time the sound was accompanied by the very faint sound of a high-pitched scream.

"Someone's in trouble!" Tyson clenched his fists together.

"And that didn't sound like an avalanche..." Joey murmured quietly.

"I think you're right." Darryn nodded, suddenly aware that the four humans had all unconsciously moved closer together. "Lady... could you?"

<I know I'm asking a lot but we can't run into trouble if we're not prepared - it could just get a whole lot worse.> Darryn emoted to his Pokemon.

<As you wish, Prince Darryn.> Came the predictable reply.

A long moment passed as the trainers steadied their breath and nerves while Lady scouted the source of the rumble and screams with her psychic abilities but once her eyes stopped glowing, they were wide with urgency.

<Your female companion! She is in trouble!> Lady alerted Darryn immediately and almost as quickly, he broke into a run.

"Hey, Darryn!" Tyson hollered, chasing after with Joey and Crystal not far behind, but the Co-Ordinator wasn't listening.

*Meiko?! Tuesday?! I've got to help them!* He berated himself, sprinting down the stone hallway with Lady guiding his feet. As though hearing her thoughts, Lady's voice blossomed once more in Darryn's mind.

<Your friend from when you were a child... She is hurt.>

If anything, that just made Darryn run faster.
