"Thanks!" She grinned, slipping them into the messenger bag next to
her father's journal. She hesitated for a moment. Toka poked her,
but she gave a subtle shake of her head. "I'll tell him you said
hi."
Tiger came back and sighed, he then looked at Machamp, Alakazam,
and Incineroar. The three Pokemon then ran at the beam, and pushed
back into place. The trainer then shook his head, and went to the
back of his house. He saw a picture that was damaged from the
attack on his house. He then closed his eyes, and put the picture
in his pocket before looking ar the damage.
"Just the inside..." Tiger said quietly, and looked at the house.
It was repaired but slightly damaged, he then picked cyndaquil up
and walked towards the door.
Mel winced but didn't get up from her spot on the ground. She'd get
up to help if she had to, but right now, she wasn't sure if she was
welcome inside. She yawned and leaned back on her palms, watching
as Akira and Lucario squabbled.
Tiger walked into the house, and sat on the ground. He then
growled, and placed his hand on his forehead. Cyndaquil then ran
into his room and went to look for something to eat.
Mel returned Akira and stood, stretching before approaching Lucario
to lean against him. "Was this our fault?" She wondered. "It's our
fault the UB came here. If we're hadn't been talking to
Pheromosa.."
Cyndaquil managed to find a few fruits that managed to miss the
destruction. He ran over to Tiger, and handed the trainer one. "I'm
not hungry" Tiger said with a sigh, and walked off to his room.
Mel still seemed miserable. She hugged herself and sighed, glancing
at the house, hoping it wasn't too badly destroyed. Lucario huffed
sympathetically.
Mel glanced over at Tiger guiltily and promptly looked at the
ground again, arms still wrapped around herself. "I'm really
sorry." She said quietly, still looking firmly at the ground.
"For what bad timing?" Tiger said gently, and smiled. He then
sighed, and placed his hand on Mel's shoulder "I'm not going to
blame you for a UB attacking my house."
She shrugged. "I just feel bad. The UB probably recognized me from
ultra space, and I was talking to Pheromosa. It probably attacked
your house because I was here.." She shrugged again. "So yeah. Bad
timing." She offered with a small smile.
"Maybe." Mel agreed. "Oh well. I'm just surprised your not mad at
me. Or any of us, actually, since Ivan and Victor were here too."
She smiled faintly. "But thanks."
