The caterpie landed safely in his hands tired. « Thanks »
August said relieved. « Dont do that again! Ok
caterpie? » August said serious. The little pokemon whimpered
sad. « Don’t give me that look, it’s dangerous and you know
it » the pokemon looked at him with puppy eyes. « I am
not falling for that again, even though you look cute....and
charming....and just adorable.... »
« Oh my God » August jump up running after the little
scamper. « Caterpie!! Come down here!! You’re making a
scene! » he runs after the pokemon but the little bugger was
completely ignoring him, stuck in it’s own little world.
« Maggnus?!! » August yells out, trying to hold down his
laughter. « Please help mee »
August was staring at a group of students sitting at a table near
them. Started, he looked at Magnus. « Umm? » he said,
oblivious to the joyful bug flying through the air.
He nodded watching the fan in the ceiling circle in loops. However,
unknown to him, his caterpie shout out some silk and tied itself to
one of the paddle. It then started to swing along with it slowly
around the room all happy.
« But you could never abandon her » August continued,
sighting. His caterpie started to snore a little making him smile a
little. He laid back watching the ceiling. « Not even a day in
and Im already tired. This is going to be a long year. » he
chuckled
He stopped laughing mortified. He didnt think they didnt have any
other family even though he knew they had some parents issue.
« Oof sorry...I shouldn’t have joked like that... »
August watched her leave before looking up at Magnus. « Thanks
for sticking up for me. I don’t like being isolated like that. But
don’t feel bad if I end up going to the poke dorm, I don’t want to
be kick out because I couldn’t stand the dorm » He started
chuckling. « You imagine? Going back home and explaining to
your family the reason you got kicked out of school was because you
couldnt accept that. » he continued laughing
« Oh » August said disappointed. He was looking forward
to knowing which house he was going to be in. He let himself fall
down on his chair which he kept leaving for some reason.
August also shook his head, petting the caterpie. He sat back down
on the chair, looking around at the other students. « Wait
actually, how will we know which house we will have to go
in? »
« It’s not your fault, and anyways, you were the first to
approach me, so now you’re stuck with me for the long ride ».
He chuckled. He then remembered Lavender’s presence and he turned
toward her. « I hope she won’t get in trouble with what she
said to you? »
Branches
crackled as steps could be heard coming out of the forest into the
meadow.
[color=white]“We’re screwed Steve. We haven’t caught anything all
day! If we don’t come back with something the chief will kill
us!!”
The rugged voice hurt Kyle’s ears as
he hid behind the red egg.
“Oh shut your whining. Have we ever come
back empty handed? No.”
The smaller of the two raised his hand
and open his mouth as if to say something.
“Don’t you dare say Panola. That one
didn’t count and you know it. » Steve grummeled cutting off the
other man. « Wait! Isn’t that a pair of eggs over there?!!
»
Kyle’s heart froze as he heard the duo
run in his direction. Crawling behind a rock, he stood perfectly
still, waiting to see what they were going to do.
« Looks like we’re in luck Grob, those
two eggs are sure to please the chief. »
Some rustling could be heard as they
picked the eggs up.
« Look at that Steve, there was 3 eggs
but one hatched! Where did you think it ran to? »
Kyle closed his eyes, scared to even
move.
« Who cares, we can come back later for
it, but let’s go back and complete the objective for the day.
»
They started walking away from Kyle’s
hidding spot.
« Grob! Look at your egg!! It’s moving
around!! »
Gasping, Kyle peeked over the rock
trying to get a view on what was happening. The egg that Grob was
holding was standing perfectly still as Grob stared at Kyle, his
shark tooths lined up in a perfect grin.
« Well hello there. »
Kyle jumped up his heart beating out
of his chest as a dark veil filled his field of vision.
« I got it Grob! The chief will be so
please with us!! »
Kyle started fighting with the bag,
tugging on the thin tissue, but it wouldn’t break. As the man that
carried the bag started heading back to their car, the bag swayed
and Kyle was fighting for his freedom. But as Steve threw him into
the trunk, Kyle hit his head on the dash and he lost consciousness
yet again.
August stared at Thana's back as she left. He then turned back
towards Magnus eyes wide, lips pinch. Wooow, he though to himself.
Should I really hang with them? I feel like they'll only bring
trouble, he still though, debating wether to try to find another
group of friends before all the groups are made. But as he looked
around the room, he realized that almost all of the students in the
room were stalkups to those in power, and that Magnus was probably
one of the only normal ones that looked nice. "So he decided to
throw the dices and stay with the two siblings and see where it
will lead him.
His mouth formed an O as he slowly back away from this fight
approaching Magnus. « Dude, do something or your sister will
be suspended on her first day! » he said to Magnus even though
he really wanted to ask what happened to the lady Thana was talking
about. The caterpie buried itself in the pocket, feeling the
tension in the air.
Staring wide eye at Thana, August couldn’t believe she actually
dared to threaten the headmistress. He pinch his lips looking back
at Lavender wondering how she was going to react to that.
« Thank God she didn’t use violence » he though to
himself.
August felt a little disturb as he didn’t understand how she could
have known about his family knowledge on magic and pokemon.
« Yes I can’t wait » he answered a little harshly as he
didn’t like when people listened in on conversation. He glanced at
the siblings who were not joining the conversation, surprised that
there were people worse than him at authority.
The small caterpie tremble in its pockets as August tried to
confort it. « Hello Lavender »he said straightforward. He
then patted the arcanine. « It’s my first time seeing this
sort of pokemon »
As August oppened his mouth to respond to Magnus, he heard the
teacher call out to them. His mouth twitched hoping they weren’t
already in trouble five minutes in. His caterpie crawled back into
the chest pocket trembling with anxiety at the sight of so many
people looking in it’s direction.
