Aquafeles grumbled to himself as he walked down the hall. On one hand, he probably should have been happy. He’d been wanting the boss to give him more responsibilities around Team Rocket for how long now? So being given an assignment of any kind could only be a good sign. Still… he thought as he … Continue reading
Izumi stirred in her sleep. It was strange; for the past few nights, she had actually been sleeping well. Now, as she tossed and turned, all she could do was worry about her father. To help ease her mind, she sat up and walked over to her messenger hawk’s perch by the window. The bird … Continue reading
“I see. Is that so? Well, then, thank you very much for the information, Lorelei.” Sabrina tapped the phone off and placed it delicately on her desk. Zoe was organizing some papers and trying very hard to look like she hadn’t been listening in on Sabrina’s conversation. But in front of a telepath, such feelings … Continue reading
Bolin’s eyes swept across the crowded screening room, marveling. He had heard that Fire Nationers loved their theater, but this… The crowd he saw as he and Fuse entered the room went beyond ordinary fandom and hinged somewhere between a Nuktuk cult and an unruly mob. “My, they sure are… spirited… aren’t they?” Fuse said. … Continue reading
Misty crossed her arms and let the water swallow her. She wasn’t sure how to feel. All her life, she’d adored water Pokémon, but without a ton of bulky breathing equipment, she couldn’t join them in their world. In an instant, all that had changed. Ironically, thanks to the man she probably hated more than … Continue reading

She didn’t think it was the actual meeting with General Iroh and his soldiers about how they should reconquer Sunport. “There was no … Continue reading
Ash was never one to think things through properly. He’d often found himself in situations that could have been easily avoided if he’d just taken the time to plan his actions instead of rushing into something in the heat of the moment. Unfortunately, now seemed to be yet another one of those times. When he’d … Continue reading
Fiora headed towards the elevator, Raven flapping close behind. As she waited for the transport to arrive, she paused in front of a mirror to smooth her electricity-frizzed hair and found herself frowning. Gawk… this uniform really isn’t practical for battling, she thought, tugging down the absurdly short skirt. Maybe it was time for a … Continue reading
Firelord Izumi was doing better with Flare. Fuse could see her confidence improve every day. Izumi’s dragon was responding well to this new attitude as well. Flare now accepted Izumi’s company in the stable and had grown accustomed to, perhaps even fond, of the Firelord’s affectionate nose rubs and chin scratches. It would be a … Continue reading
Fiora had been tempted to stay when Misty almost coaxed Aquafeles into the pool. A protective instinct, maybe. The little Pokémon was still her charge. But Misty was a water Pokémon expert and a gym leader, and Fiora was fairly confident she wouldn’t hurt the little creature, no matter what her feelings of Team Rocket … Continue reading
