A fun camping trip

Tristan put the guitar over his back and jumped up, grabbing a branch. He hauled himself up and took out his guitar, Looking over the camp from above.

"What are YOU doing?" Tala called.

"Practising. Any requests?" He said, looking at everyone.

"No." "Not any that sounds right on your instument sorry." "Bathoven!" "Anything by Queen!" Zoe gave a giggle and ran over to Salami and Salamence with Blitz right behind her. "(Hey guys! I want you to meet my little brother Blitz the Torchic!)" Zoey cheered. Blitz stood behind Zoey shyly.

Tristan looked at the Torching and waved, taking some music out of his bag. he looked over it and strummed a few chords before starting to play "Don't stop me Now".

"This song's great!" Tala grinned. "Not Bathoven but still good!" Nat added "Whatever..." Narri mumbled "Good choice!" Isao added. Petey walked over with Zoey and Blitz. "(Hello there, I hope these two haven't caused you trouble!)" Petey said polietly.

Tristan finished the song and looked at the egg, which had a tiny crack in it. He hopped down from the tree carefully and sat next to it.

Tala walked over. "Not long now!" she grinned.

"I hope it's a pokemon I want, I'd hate to have to give it away or release it!" He sighed, Looking from her to the egg.

"No matter what it is you should keep it! Raising a pokemon from an egg is like raising a child! You can't always pick and chose and you should always love it no matter what! I mean look at Zoe and Blitz they could be a pokemon species I hate with a vengence but I'd still keep and love them!" Tala groaned. "Uh Tala-Sama this isn't the time to argue I mean-" "SHUT UP!" "alright...."

Tristan looked up at the sky, then the egg.It shook a bit and he raised his eyebrows. He started playing "Riot Van" By the Arctic Monkeys, Watching his fingers dance over the strings as he plucked them.

Tala gave a sigh and sat down.

Tristan finished the song, hopping down from the branch. He looked around, and set off at a slow jog towards the lake.

"If he abandons the egg then he loses all my respect for him!" Narri groaned "What respect?" Nat asked "Exactly!" Narri pointed out.

Tristan heard their exchange of words, and thought about it as he jogged round the lake. When he got back, he scooped the egg and his Guitar up and strapped the guitar on his back and cradled the egg in his arms. He looked away from the camp and walked back towards the Academy, replaying the conversation in his head over and over again.

"Tristan, where are you going?" Tala called jogging to catch up.

"Away from HER" He said, pointing at Narri. "She obviously doesn't want me anyway near her, so I'm gonna go somewhere she isn't." He said, Shaking his head and walking on.

Tala wasn't too surprised "Hey, she's a well I'm not allowed to say bad words but she's unplesant that's for sure... besides it's her form of trying to show hints, being crule. I mean, you'd be surprised the things she's told me and Nat or called us!" Tala said walking next to Tristan. "What I'm trying to say is, she has respect for you but she doesn't think it's right for someone like your self a good trainer to abandon a hatchling because you don't like it's species. If you know what I mean."

Ashley was in a tree nearby,she heard the song and began to mime the words to herself

"She can't just assume I'm gonna abandon it, I Wasn't even thinking of abandoning it. I know I said it and I didn't mean to, she just needs to take things a little less seriously." He sighed.

"Once upon a time she was care free do you know what happened that made her change?" Tala began.

Ashley heard someone coming and froze,trying to be as quiet as possible

[color:741f=$00ff00] "She was attacked?" He sighed.

"Not exactly, an assassin tried to murder Nat and Sakura; Isao's twin sister. Isao and Narri saved them just barely and ten they decided to train. It had the worst effect on Narri as she believes it was because she was care free they almost died. Her one and only mission; to protect friends and family. It's also the reason she doesnt like boyfriends and all. So there you have it! But if you catch her at the right time you'll see her dancing and being carefree." Tala muttered.

"Oh..." He muttered, thinking why anyone would want to Assassinate Nat. His egg shook a bit more and a tiny crack appeared at the top. "Look, It's Hatching" He exclaimed, His mood changing.
