<How do you like all of them?>

Archur smiled, "Anubis tries to be the big brother of this group. He's a good one too, I think."

<They're pretty nice. Even Char, when we're not fighting.>

"Every family needs a big brother." Shock fell off Archur's shoulder, landing in front of Archur with a soft thud.

<Is he usually mean?>

Archur reached out and caught Shock before he hit the ground then set him down and gave him a piece of bread.

<No but he likes to get on others' nerves just to get you to smile.>

Shira looked at Shock, who sat beside Archur." Shock has taken a liking to you."

<Kind of like Rome I guess,> she mused with a small smile on her own face.

"Good to know," the teen grinned and stroked the little mouse's head.

Shade smiled slightly before looking at Shock, thinking about the days when he was young.

"Last time we ran into a stranger, Shock electricuted them on accident." Shira laughed. Shock nibbled on the piece of bread happily.

Forli gently nuzzled him but said no more and walked back to Nicholai then curled up at his side.

Archur just laughed a bit and shook his head, "It happens sometimes."

Shade stayed where he was. Solar was dozing lightly beside a tree, Willow and Char were looking around and Terra was asleep.

Shock's ear twitched. He puffed his cheeks and let a litte bit of electricity spark off his cheeks, showing off.

Venice quietly trotted towards Shade and looked up at him, Rome right on her heels.
<I-I'm sorry for whatever I did to make you mad,> the little zorua said shyly and nervously. Rome gently nuzzled her from behind and shot Shade an accusatory glance.

"How old is he?" Archur grinned a bit as the little mouse sparked up.

Shade looked at Venice. < I didn't mean to growl at you. It's just that I get defensive when others talk to me.>

" I think about three and a half days old." Shira watched Shock.

<But why? I didn't mean to offend you if I did... Why else would you need to defend?> she inquired but took a step back, getting a little bit behind the quilava in case Shade growled again.

"And already shocking people?" Archur laughed a bit and pet Shock again.

Anubis walked up to Willow with a friendly smile, <Hello,> the lucario greeted.

<Cause I have a bad past and I guess I learned that I can't trust others at first.>

"I know. He does it to Shade and Solar whenever thier playing."

Willow looked at Anubis.< Hello.> She smiled back kindly.

<Well... Do you trust us now?> she asked with hopeful innocence.

"What a silly pichu he is," the teen smiled and leaned back on his hands.

<My name is Anubis,> his tone grew a bit more shy and his cheeks flushed a bit, <I haven't seen a Pokemon as beautiful as you in a long time...>

Shade nodded.

Shock smiled and threw his arms up in the air after he finished his bread. Then Shock flopped onto his back.

Willow blinked and blushed.< Me? I'm just another Ninetails.> Willow had never had anyone come up to her and say that.

<Yay!> she smiled brightly and placed her paws up on Shade's front leg, <Wanna play tag with Rome and me?> she asked with a big wag of her tail.

Archur just grinned, "So, Shira, what's your story?"

Shade blinked.< I.....I guess.> He stood up.

"I was raised by my foster mother in Kanto. I've traveled to Johto and Sinnoh before I came here. I had some trouble with Team Rocket back in Johto but they left me alone after a while."

<Yay!> she grinned then tapped his paw, <tag, you're it!> she scampered away.

"Sounds quaint," Archur nodded.

<I mean it. I've never seen a ninetales like you. You're beautiful.>

Shade ran after her, smiling.

"What about you?"

Willow's cheeks were red as she looked at Anubis.< T-thank you.> She smiled.

Rome ran away as well, a small smile on his face. He followed after Venice,. making sure to keep her just ahead of himself.

"Born and raised in Hoenn with both my parents," he shrugged, "Left when I was twelve with Nihcolai. I've been to each country but Hoenn is the only one I've gotten all the badges from. I get bored in the other countries after a while but then I go back to fight the next couple of gyms before going somewhere else."

Anubis smiled and then gestured to the spot next to her, "May I sit?"

Shade managed to catch up and he gently tagged Rome. <Your it.> Shade ran away.

"Wow. I try my best to beat the gyms but I don't beat the Elite Four."

<Of coarse.> Willow said.
