(Rearing back on a branch? (: )
The SPearow winced as feathers popped loose, bent, or broken clean up time middle. Taking a step back he folded it huffily against his body, narrowing his eyes in a "Leer", and staring evenly at the Trapinch. Then he took his other wing and attempted to knock the rock headed pokemon off the branch. <If you're going to be sooo rude. GET OFF!> This was before the comment however. Biting people was very rude but the Trapinch's comment was worse.
<I don't bite trees--and I TOUGHT I SAID TO GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME ANBD MY TREE!> The periods of lucidness, and calm periods were slowly seeping their way back into the adolescent Spearow's mind. In fact he had to admit that stabbing hiimself in the stomach was rather stpid, and the comment was probably deserved. It still pushed his buttons though.
Then the lumbering idiot was charging forward again, flapping his wings awkwardly he fell from the branch, smashing into the one below with a quiet pained tweet. <What did I do to you?> Nothing. The confusion was back, and even as he tried to make a last ditch attack he found himsef moving his legs instead of his wings, and fell backwards from the branch. This left him hanging painfully in a bush. THAT HAD HURT!

Sandstar released the Pokemon's leg and let himself drop to the ground. The Spearow thrashed wildly and quite comically about, and Sandstar couldn't help but laugh. This was obviously the Spearow's first battle, and though it was Sandstar's as well he wasn't nearly as clumsy. At least Sandstar had been able to practice biting things at the Professor's lab a bit.
Then the Spearow fell suddenly from the tree and crashed into Sandstar's head. Stars burst into his vision as the skulls collided, and once again Sandstar staggered away. He shook his head to clear it, and when the Trapinch opened his eyes again he saw the young bird Pokemon tangled up in a bush. Sandstar burst out into laughter. <A little weak on our feet, are we?> He taunted.
Without really thinking about what she was doing, Skull instinctivly pulled a PokeBall out of her pack. Pressing the button to expand it, she whispered, "Here goes nothing." And threw it with all the might in her slender arms. The ball flew through the air and knocked squarely on the head of the Spearow. A red light engulfed it and sucked it inside the PokeBall, which fell to the ground and began to wiggle about.
Sandstar sat back on his haunches with a sigh. Though he had come off considerably better in the battle, he was still worn out from all the scrambling around he'd done. Hopefully the Ball would capture the Spearow and he would be able to rest for a bit. Regardless, Sandstar kept his eye trained on the rolling Ball, ready to spring into another attack should the Pokemon break out.
(I'll say now then.)

Instead of being angered at the taunt, the little Spearow whined instead. <I fell--no you pushed me...> The pain had cleared the webs from his mind. The poking branches keeping it at bay. With a yank of his wings he dropped to the ground, a myriad storm of branches and leaves falling with him. Looking to Sandstar he realized he was still confused, but not for the reason he was earlier, now he just wanted to know why Sandstar had attacked him. Opening his mouth to ask the question his eyes were drawn to the human.
Then her arm dropped back. The movement of the ball spinning through the air held his curiosity enough, or at least LONG enough for it to smack into his beak. There was a sweeping beam of redlight, and with a distressed squawk the Spearow disappeared.
Slowly but surely the Spearow started to throw himself at the edges of the poke ball, vibrant curiosity now turned to fear.
It shook … Once
Twice…
And…. The Pokeball started hopping around, the top opening slowly. Then there was a loud “SPE---(heavy)” from the dark recesses of the Pokeball, and it slammed shut. With a final shake the Pokeball clamped shut.
The Spearow inside was now nursing a concussion, half broken wing, and other less serious aches and pains. One of these being his bent beak.
Nickname: (Your Choice) Species: Spearow Personality: This Spearow is a young adolescent, so not a lot is known. Of course he is a very curious creature, and hates being ignored. He tries his best to think no one is out to harm him. When confused he is very angry, and easily swayed from his normal path of questions instead of punches. Level: 3 Attacks: EXP: 0/400

"Yes!" Skull let the little cheer excape her lips. She dashed forward and picked the PokeBall out of the mound of leaves and branches. The Spearow wouldn't be ready for battle yet, but it was good to know she was infact capable of this Pokemon training thing.
First things first, she needed to heal her Pokemon. "Sandstar, come here." Skull dug through her bag and extracted one of the potions she'd been given back at the lab. Sandstar reluctantly approached his master, and Skull sprayed him with the Potion. The Trapinch let out an undignified squeal as the spray stung a bit, but then felt the pain from his aches and scratches fading away. Sandstar was ready for another battle.
Next, Skull picked up the Spearow's PokeBall again and released the Pokemon inside. Spearow staggered to one side and fell on his rump with a squawk. Skull pulled out another Potion and sprayed it at the Spearow before he could object. Spearow felt his head clear and some of the pain receed. He would still need medical attention for his wing, but at least now he could think straight.
"Feeling better?" The dark-haired teen asked her Spearow, who nodded enthusiastically. "Now I need a nickname for you..."Skull scratched her chin in thought, running through a list of possible names. "Well...You've got nice red wings and belly...How about Redstorm?" Redstorm fluttered his winds happily, wincing as the injured one's feathers ruffled.

As the battle ended, Kurai looked up quickly to crack the bone of his neck [lol habit] and then stepped forward a bit. "And so ends the first climactic battle of our journey." he said jokingly. "And in the spoils of war, a new ally was made. We must hold a feast to celebrate our victory!" At this point, he wasn't even thinking about the stupid things he was saying.

Skull punched Kurai lightly on the shoulder, grinning. "You dork." She teased him. "But a feast sounds like a pretty good idea. I'm starved." Sandstar nodded solemly, trying to act superior after battle. Everyone could hear his stomach growling, though. He blushed a deeper red than his skin already was and tried to make it stop.
Redstorm bounced over to Fireball, a questioning look on his face. <Hi! I'm Redstorm now. What's your name?> It was good to see another bird-like Pokemon around. The little orange rock didn't seem willing to answer any questions, so a fellow bird would get pestered until Redstorm understood things better. <And what are these funny two-legged things? Why did that one throw a ball at me?> The Spearow gestured with his uninjured wing towards Skull.
Looking into her bag again, Skull realized she hadn't brought along any food. She looked hopefully at Kurai. "You brought food, didn't you?"

"Um..." was all Kurai said. He looked away, embarrassed and feeling very stupid.
Fireball jumped off Kurai's shoulder and approached Redstorm. <My name's Fireball.> she said. <These 'funny two-legged things'are called humans. The girl one threw a ball at you because she's what's called a 'trainer'. You, my friend, have just become a part of a wonderful journey that may last quite a while.>

(*bonks your head* You hafta put PokeSpeak in these thingers-<>. DUH Matthew! XD)
Skull sighed heavily and sat down on a rock. "I'm hungry." She whined as her tummy rumbled uncomfortably. She let her gaze wander down the road, looking for signs of the next town. But uninterrupted grasslands seemed to go on forever in either direction. How much longer was this road.
Sandstar sighed as well and sat on the ground next to his trainer. Of course the foolish girl had forgotten to bring food. it seemed that they would just have to starve until they got to the next town.
<Trainers? Journeys? Whaaaat?> Redstorm squawked, gazing in wonder at Fireball. He still didn't understand much about what was going on. However, he was suddenly aware of Sandstar eyeing him eerily. <Is something wrong?> He asked the Trapinch. <You were just wild, weren't you?> Sandstar demanded. <Show us where to find berries and food around here.> <Okay!> Redstorm fluttered his wings and hopped clumsily off into the grasses. Sandstar moved his little legs as fast as they would go to keep up. Looking over his shoulder, he added to Fireball, <You comin' or what?>
"Hey!" Skull looked up at the sound of russling grasses to see her Pokemon escaping into the tall grass. "Get back here!"

[What? I totally did. <_< >_>
I'M NOT ON TRIAL]
"I-I'm sorry..." Kurai said immedietaly. He was very apologetic, and would always apologize for everything, no matter how much he was told not to. It was his nature. He figured if he apologized for everything, no one would get angry at him, and no one would end up hating him.
Fireball sighed. <I guess...> she said. <Hey! Listen!> she called out to Kurai. She knew that he wouldn't be able to understand what she was saying, but she could at least get his attention. She then followed Redstorm and Sandstar.
"Huh?" Kurai looked over at Fireball as she called out and saw her following Redstorm and Sandstar. "Maybe we should follow them?" he said to Skull.

"Crazy little critters causing trouble!" Skull dragged herself to her feet, though her legs were a bit wobbly from hunger. Cursing under her breath, the dark teenager began to chase after her and Kurai's Pokemon.
<Dammit-We've go company.> Sandstar growled. <How much further is this?> Redstorm was flitting contentedly from branch to branch of a large tree that covered a large area. From here, he could look out over all of the plains. <Right there!> He glided shakily down from the tree to a large cluster of bluberry bushes, along with a couple skinny Oran and Pecha berry trees.
Skull caught up with her Pokemon soon enough, shouting, "You've all got some nerve, trying to sneak off like-Oh!" Her anger turned to delighted surprise as she noticed all the edible food items. "Now this is what I call a feast!" Skull began to pick as many bluberries as she could carry and cram them unceremoniously into her mouth.

Fireball stepped out of Skull's way and sighed. She'd hoped that she'd be able to get some of it to eat. But looking at how obsessively Skull was taking it all in...that didn't seem likely. <Is there...uh...anywhere else we can eat something?> she asked Redstorm.
"Well..." Kurai said, watching Skull. "Uh...you don't seem to be wanting to save any. Perhaps you should consider that? In case you get hungry again?"

Skull paused momentarily and stared at Kurai. She had been completely focused on eating and had forgotten he was there for a moment. When she came back to her senses, Skull replied, "Oh...Right. Uh...I think you can make soup and stuff from Oran and Pecha berries..." She stood and quickly began to gather some into her bag, still embarressed from the way she acted. "We'll make a soup for dinner..."
Sandstrar rolled his eyes and began to store some bluberrys in his large mouth, carefull not to swallow any. It didn't seem to occur to him that the others wouldn't want to eat anything that he had hoarded into his mouth. Redstorm also began gathering berries, but he held these with his wings, not his beak.

"Right." Kurai said. "I have no idea how to do that, by the way. You need to teach me so I don't be useless." Now that he thought of it, there was a lot that Kurai didn't know how to do. Stuff he'd need to know if he planned on actually living for the rest of his life.
Fireball felt embarrassed. Her wings were to small to actually carry any berries. All she could do was stand and watch.

"I guess you just boil some water in a pot, chop 'em up and throw them in with the water?" Skull shrugged noncommitally. As if she had ever cooked a meal in her life. The majority of this existance some called a life had been spent in her dark basement playing video games and writing dark poetry. "Come on. I think I packed a pot of sorts..." She led the way through the grass back towards where they had set down their stuff and began rummaging through her bag once more. Finally she pulled out a large-ish pot. "Aha! Now all we need is a fire."
Sandstar spit out his berries onto a flat rock next to wear Skull seemed to be setting up the pot. <Maybe we can mash these up and use the juices and stuff to flavor the stew.> He suggested, knowing very well no one would understand him. <That's a great idea!> Redwing twittered happily and began to crush the blueberries with his sharp talons. Sandstar sigh and began to do the same with his stubby little legs. <Fire, Fireball-That's your cue.> Sandstar added to the Torchic, who looked a bit left-out.

Kurai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He'd hope that he'd get lucky and Skull would know how to cook something. He sure as hell didn't, and it would be nice to actually have decently prepared food to eat. "Part of me feels that we have a very long journey ahead of us." he thought aloud, wishing he hadn't said it almost immedietaly afterwards.
Fireball was only more embarrassed now. <I...uh...can't...> she said in a quieter, but still audible voice. <I don't know how yet...>
