"Whooooo!" Blaed jumped up as soon as she came upon the last stretch of the way to Cove Town. The town below was so welcoming to her view and she was eager to get there for many reasons: she needed to restock, she looked forward to completing the first, no matter how small, step in their pokemon adventures, and traveling was new to her, everything--new places, sights, etc. etc. "I'll race you," the trainer called to her pokemon as she laughed and ran her way toward the destination.
Trinka, Jiru, and the newest member of their pack, Simone, followed closely and soon caught up to their wacky leader, whose laughing made running harder than it would be. Trinka and Jiru joined their trainer in chiming while running which caused Jiru to trip and Trinka to trip on Jiru. Even Simone joined in and did not trip in turn, but jumped over the two. The Bagon did turn in a circle one too many times, though, to join the three who had stopped momentarily with a 'Ba-ba-ba-gon' chime. In their quick recovery, the air around them was once again filled with the song of 'Cin-da-quil,' 'Dor-on-ia,' 'Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-gon-gon,' and Blaed's crazy laughing.
In Simone's case, Blaed still playfully wondered if the Bagon was getting along so well because the pokemon was just that way--carefree--or if she really liked the beef jerky snacks, it seemed to have made the Bagon even more cheerful as it sang while it ate its meal. Thinking of her craziness of only packing beef jerky added more power in her laughter, prompting a chain of chimes from the pokemon. Why do they put up with my insanity? I love my team, Blaed giggled in her mind.
As they neared the town, Blaed reflexively toned herself down though not losing her bubbliness. She kept the characteristic fiery bounce to her that considering her reputation observed by the few, she had completed the run without tripping and somehow managed a quite impressive and mind you graceful stop. "Shh-shhh-sshhhhhh......." Blaed giggled out in a whisper to her three companions, who looked at her with what seemed like a return of the message, especially for her. They reminded her of school friends she didn't have, taunting and giggling with one another.

No blown-out-of-proportion laughs, just a tame happiness engulfed them. Though it did seem as though the smile on her face was what was keeping Blaed from a state where she would just about explode with hyperactivity known to suit her as experience has shown. There were pleased expressions on all her pokemon's faces, Trinka and Jiru on her shoulders and Simone in her arms as she instantly found a way how to keep her when she was out of her pokeball. Though you gotta wonder what Blaed will think of for future additions to their team.
"Where to," Blaed contemplated as they began to stroll through the town.

"..and there's the Pokemon Center..Ah, wow, the town's pretty high up if you can see the birds flying at this angle and hear the waves," Blaed commented as they neared the cliffs' peaks during their pleasant tour of the town. "Huh?"
Simone began jumping into the air all of a sudden each time getting closer to the ridge's edge and not content with getting back on the ground. The Bagon was smiling, so Blaed was puzzled as well as worried. "Simone, that's dangerous!"
She let out a gasp as she ran after her pokemon, Trinka and Jiru running along side her after the Bagon. Simone had jumped over the edge and Blaed jumped after her, followed in a millisecond by the Cyndaquil and Doronia. There was no time for words.
Blaed could only shot for one aim, protecting them and she pulled the two that followed her into her embrace as she began to fall and dove after Simone who was ahead of her. She took the Bagon into her arms as well and they landed on a ledge. It was like tripping on herself, but the other times Blaed saw her clumsy trips coming so they did not hurt as much as now.
They were safe and Blaed was glad. It seemed like the Bagon had enough of jumping into the air and chimed its name as if in thanks. Blaed giggled but was quite out of breath. "I'll be alright in a bit," she winked at them. Her vision had only seen the Bagon but not the ledge and she was thankful for it being there for them.

Blaed kept her friends safe in their pokeballs as she climbed the side of the cliff, the distance up wasn't too high, but it wasn't such a fast climb either. What's more, her bruises made it a bigger challenge. Patience had the task accomplished and she walked to the inn that she'd spotted near by.
Having checked in and entered her room, Blaed changed into any outfit she happened to pull out first and let out her pokemon. Jiru hopped on her shoulder and chimed. Simone followed with a hug and even Trinka joined in and snuggled Blaed from her place on her trainer's shoulder. "Aww, I love ya all, too," Blaed giggled, "Nap time! Let's all rest a bit before going back out into the town on this comfy bed we have here."
The now quartet snuggled together and slowly fell asleep after giggling and chiming for no reason.

The trip on Route One must have conditioned me, Blaed thought when she woke up after one hour while her pokemon took another hour before they too awoke from their nap. During that wait she washed and hung the laundry in the bathroom and made a list what she'll stock for the next time they travel to another destination. Let's see if I can stock a month's worth, she joked to herself about to laugh insanely but shaking her head and taking a serious facade.
She smiled gently as she glanced at her sleeping pokemon and observed the scenery from the window. Jiru was calmest in his sleep and apparently so was Simone, then Trinka was always calm. Blaed giggled a bit. It was a cozy place to be amidst forest and with the view of the ocean. She was slightly afraid again in recalling the earlier fall, but then remembered how her pokemon were sleeping soundly, their contentment heart-warming and she was quickly back to calm. She felt happy to be traveling with her companions on their pokemon adventure.

Once the sleepy-heads woke up, Blaed asked in a cheerful song, "Are you guys ready to chow? Let's go!" And in her bubbliness, the trainer took all three in her arms and went straight to a restaurant. Blaeddress as was her custom, had her hyperness on low volume as they walked in the town, "We may stay for a few days, we'll see."
"Hello," Blaed greeted the waitress who came to their table for their order, "We'd like to order four orders of sushi and strawberry shakes, please."
Blaed was all smiles and so were her pokemon. Trinka was more obvious now in showing her curiosity as she looked around. Jiru was fascinated by the paper napkin as he unfolded it and proceeded to wrinkle it to a quite a state as though it was a game of speed. Simone watched all the while then decided to play with another napkin as well as she took one for herself and mirrored Jiru. Blaed hummed merrily, merrily; her insanity barely contained.

Jiru sat still, flicking his tail; he was just staring at a single item, beef jerky, as Blaed loaded her basket with them, looking very joyful with the stick held in his mouth. Simone on the other hand had taken several sticks out of the basket and joyously napped near it, the leader of the two as Jiru and Trinka followed taking a stick. Trinka decided on a nap as well and Jiru soon followed settling himself next to Trinka. Blaed hummed happily, getting better at containing her hyperness. They had grown much closer, she observed and as she finished gathering the beef jerky supply, couldn't help but say as she picked the three up, "Ah, I want to buy these as well." She moved to the counter with a light bounce to her step.

"On our way back let's go to the Pokemon Center," Blaed told Trinka, Jiru, and Simone who were no longer napping but looking around them from were they were snug in Blaed's arms. It seemed much taller as she neared the facility and entered it. Everything seemed so..official.
"Hi, Nurse Joy!" Blaed greeted her, "May you please heal my three pokemon?" Blaed smiled and had the Cyndaquil, Doronia, and Bagon return. Saying her thanks, she took a seat and began to think while waiting of plans and pokemon information as she took in the scene of the sun against the trees.

Blaed winced a bit when her bruises stung a bit, but got her mind off it when Nurse Joy called to her as her pokemon were all healed. "Thank you very much," she replied with a smile and let her team back out of their pokeballs.
Everyone jumped to her in unison, which surprised Blaed a bit and then had her giggling. "I take it everyone's at a hundred percent," Blaed laughed. They chimed in reply.
Blaed was debating as she walked toward the inn, we could tour more since they're not tired yet. Her thoughts were cut short as she realized they were near the place where they had fallen. She looked to Simone quickly, but sighed as she found the Bagon calm though looking at the sky with what seemed more than the awe in the Cyndaquil and Doronia. Their eyes caught a bird flying at an altitude closer to them and Simone practically squeed, catching Blaed in surprise. A gentle smile came to Blaed as she concluded that the Bagon wasn't going to go diving again and brought them closer to see more of the view.
"Do you want to fly, Simone? You know, I want to fly, too," Blaed smiled joyfully and told the Bagon that sat in the middle of Trinka and Jiru on her lap. "Trinka, Jiru, and I will be with you all the way cheering your dreams on, right?" Trinka and Jiru chimed. Blaed hugged them a bit tighter and they snuggled back.

"Two orders of yakisoba and four strawberry shakes to go, please," Blaed could have sang to the cashier. The three were already fast asleep in her arms and Blaed smiled at their expressions. Trinka slept coolly and Blaed knew she had really had an influence on the Cyndaquil during the time they've already spent together. Jiru jerked in his sleep, his right foot kicked out a bit and Blaed suppressed a laugh which was more difficult when Simone chimed 'Bagon!' in her sleep.
"Thank you," Blaed chimed as she left the restaurant for the second time that day and headed for the inn. Today is a sleepy day, but if I've gotten to know them a bit they'll be awake when we get to the inn for dinner, singing, and bed again, Blaed laughed to herself.
