(Author's Note: I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK! And I've got a batch of chapters ready for next month... I think. Anyways, Enjoy the story!)

"So, that's how it is? Fine, I can play that game." Kiui growled, feeling hurt and offended.
Lacey exhaled. "Phew... You know, it's just not right for two people to hog all this cuteness between them."
"IIIIIIIIII am literally here!!!!! Make that three!" Kiui whined. "And I'm a witness! Am I invisible to you?"
"Kiuiii..." Akari Cobra gave her a glare, making Kiui shut up, but not without a small grumble.
"Why don't we wrangle up the cute Pokemon here for a cute picture we can share with everyone?" Lacey suggested.
"That's a good idea!" Kiui shouts. "I'll go help with that!" She ran off, doing as she had said before Akari could say anything.
Akari sighed. "I'd better go help with that." She trudged toward the excited girl.



Akari Cobra was given a picture of Lacey, Kiui, and herself admiring the cuteness of a group of Pokemon. Or, in Kiui's case, being whacked in the face by a Minior. "That's a comedic picture." Kiui acknowledged behind Akari, making her jump. "What? Not used to me being a ninja-y? Or as stealthy as a Leopard?"
Akari huffs. "You? Stealthy? You're loud and obnoxious most of the time -"
Kiui raised a finger. "A-ba-ba-ba! 'Most' of the time equals the rest of the time I'm quiet AND stealthy! Am I wrong?"
Akari thinks about it, before groaning. "I hate that you make a point like that." She mutters.
"Eeeexactly." Kiui winks, pulling off a triumphant smile before standing up straight as Lacey walked over.
Lacey pulled up a photo of the image Akari Cobra had been given. They both smiled at the image. "Oooh, this one is just too cute! I'm going to make myself a backup copy or three..."
"Cute? I'm comedic in that photo!" Kiui huffs. Akari gave Kiui the mom look over her shoulder. "Right, right. It's the thought that counts..."
Lacey turns to Akari Cobra. "I'll give you this as well, as proof of your cuteness." She gives Akari a TM of Alluring Voice. "You really are strong when you get serious in battle, Akari Cobra."
"HA!" Kiui shouts.
"I wonder how far you'll be able to get, facing off against the strongest Trainers in our school..." Lacey wondered.
"Well, that's easy!" Kiui confidently answered, slinging an arm over Akari Cobra. "She'll get so far, she could reach the very ends of the universe and return back! I have faith in that!"
"Gee, okay! Can I have some personal space, please?" Akari Cobra asked. "Not that I'm ungrateful or anything..."
"Oh, right! Sorry!" Kiui retracted her arm and stepped away from Akari Cobra.
"I'll be keeping an eye on you and your progress!" Lacey says.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Kiui whispers as she counted the number of Elite Four members Akari Cobra defeated on her fingers. "Just like that!" Lacey and her Pokemon left the Battle Court.



Kiui stiffened up, knowing Drayton's footsteps from anywhere. Akari looked over to Drayton. Drayton greets Akari Cobra with, "Yo, yo, yo, Champ in the making."
