soon back home
Drigil
Marcus: Hi, Mom, I'm back.
Mother: Marcus! That was fast! How'd it go?
Marcus: It was... ah, it was awful.
Marcus: We were attacked. By the monster.
Mother: WHAAT?!
Marcus: Yeah, it bit me and chased after Aqua. I tried to follow, but-
Marcus: She's gone, mom. I couldn't...
Mother: Are you OK?
Marcus: Y-yeah, I... I went to the Pokemon Shop and got myself some antidote. I'm fine.
Mother: [checks now-uninjured leg]
Mother: Ohh! Goodness!
Marcus: Just bruising, mom. It'll go away overnight. You'll see.
Mother: That's... a lot of bruising.
Marcus: Yeah, that thing was huge.
Marcus: Reckon you'll see it on the news tonight.
Mother: You sure you're OK?
Marcus: Yeah, mom. Just fine. The shop attendant knew what he was doing. Just gotta sleep it off.
Mother: Oh. ... oh, Marcus, what about Aqua?
Marcus: She's gone, mom. But... but she's a really fast runner. I don't think we'll have to worry about her.
Mother: Ooh, it still worries me...
Mother: Oh, when your father gets home tonight... he's getting it.
Marcus: Looking forward to the fireworks, mom. Um, can I-
Mother: Yes! Of course! Get into bed right away!
Marcus: Thanks.
Marcus: [gets into room and changes pants]
Marcus: Hope blood comes out of jeans...
Marcus: [whispers in pocket] Hey, Aqua? You alright in there?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: yeah... I'm fine...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I can't believe it worked
Drigil
Marcus: It's only just begun...
Marcus: ... aw man, this is gonna be tough...
Marcus: ...
Marcus: Ok. Aqua. We need to talk.
Marcus: Those things... those things are chasing you.
Marcus: Are those the only things chasing you, or is there something else I need to know?
Marcus: Because if I'm gonna keep you hidden, I need to know everything about you, alright?
Marcus: Like, what you just did to me... you actually cured the poison and everything, right?
Marcus: [looking at bruised leg] Do I need to go out and actually get an antidote or anything?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it did cure the poison...but get a antidote... just in case...also...I don't know what I can do...it... kinda... scares me... He held aqua in his hand
Drigil
Marcus: Well, what else do you know you can do? You... OK, let's see... you can shrink, you can heal wounds...
Marcus: Unless you were messing about, you can blow bubbles...
Marcus: Though I don't know what that'll do for anything...
Marcus: What else have you done before?
Marcus: Because I don't want you to suddenly, out of nowhere, go "Oh, I can turn into a human at will too".
Marcus: Because, you know, that would just be mean.
Marcus: You know, putting me through all that when we could just pretend you're my girlfriend all along...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I can grow...to around 15 feet?
Drigil
Marcus: That... will really REALLY not help our cause.
Marcus: Maybe... don't do that.
Marcus: ... no? There's nothing else you can think of?
Marcus: ... well, then, I guess... as we go on, you'll figure things out.
Marcus: ... go out and find an antidote, huh? ... I'll... I'll have to wait a while. I mean, I just got back...
Marcus: ... wait, no wait, idea.
Marcus: Aqua. Stay quiet. I'm going to go out and... "look for you".
Marcus: [gets jacket back on and heads down stairs]
Mother: Oh, Marcus? Where are you going?
Marcus: Ah, I can't just sit here, Mom. I'm too worried about Aqua.
Marcus: I'm gonna go out and look for her.
Mother: Oh, would you like me to drive you?
Marcus: Uh, no! No, no, it's fine. It's... no, I don't want to trouble you.
Marcus: I mean, I brought this into my life, it's my responsibility.
Marcus: I mean... this is- just in case she came back to the neighbourhood, you know?
Marcus: Don't... don't want her wandering around here. Gotta make sure she...
Marcus: [sigh] ... that... father doesn't... see her...
Marcus: I'll just be right back.
Mother: ... oh, OK.
Marcus: [heads outside]
Marcus: [makes a show of looking up and down the block, and runs off and out of sight of the house]
Marcus: [panting for breath] ... hah... hah...
Marcus: Aw man, I hate running...
Marcus: Alright. Local shop's just four blocks that way...
Marcus: You alright in there, Aqua?
Marcus: Sorry, I kinda just shoved you into my pocket there...
Marcus: Hah... hah...
Marcus: ... aw man, I hope antidotes aren't that expensive...
Marcus: [long walk to the store]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I don't wanna stay tiny forever...
he pulled her out of his pocket
Aqua: can I be normal size when you're out of the house?
Drigil
Marcus: I, uh... don't know if you should. That thing could come back...
Marcus: And @#$%, man, healing power or not, I don't wanna get bitten again. That hurt a lot.
Marcus: But...
Marcus: [looks around]
Marcus: ... ah, I dunno. There are quite a few people around...
Marcus: ... ah, you know what? Sure, go ahead.
Marcus: Who knows; maybe you'll make another friend.
Marcus: But... maybe don't... speak to other humans.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she grew back to normal Aqua: why not? He got down to his knees and he looked her straight in her light purple eyes
Drigil
Marcus: Well, it's... I mean, if those lab guys are after you... they're not always in uniform, you know.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: they could be... undercover?
Drigil
Marcus: Or off-duty.
Marcus: I mean, they're human beings too. They've got lives outside of work.
Marcus: You can never know who is a member of Team Rocket nowadays.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: oh I also have a can of air freshener if I hug you too much
Drigil
Marcus: ... where the heck did you get that?
Marcus: And... I'm wearing different pants now, so it should be alright.
Marcus: ... I hope...
Marcus: But still, we gotta be careful.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I'm sorry...
Drigil
Marcus: ... ah, don't worry about it... guess these things happen...
Marcus: There's the store over there.
Marcus: Let's get some lunch while we're out and about.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: i mean...I'm sorry that your life maybe endangered...I shouldn't be with you...
Drigil
Marcus: ...
Marcus: Well, you are.
Marcus: And, you are a bit of a back and forth little gal, aren't you?
Marcus: One moment you are in tears begging me to not let you go, the next you think you shouldn't be with me.
Marcus: And, you know, I get it.
Marcus: You think something's a good idea, but then it's a bad idea, so you stop doing it, but then it turns out it was a good idea all along. You know?
Marcus: It's what my dad tells me all the time. Things aren't just black and white. People aren't just good or evil.
Marcus: There's always, like, this in-between.
Marcus: ...
Marcus: ... heh heh. Look at me. Only 19 and I'm already quoting my pops.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I...see you as...
Aqua: my... Dad...
Drigil
Marcus: ... how so?
Marcus: [they have continued walking]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: you want to protect me...even though I maybe a threat to you...and...your the only human who sees me as unique...not as a monster...
Drigil
Marcus: Huh. Well, I reckon you haven't met that many humans, have you?
[Random stranger approaches, walking with a bulbasaur]
Stranger: Good afternoon.
Marcus: [casually] Hey there. Out for a walk?
Stranger: Yeah. Beautiful day to be walking your Pokemon, am I right?
Marcus: Yeah, you bet.
Bulbasaur: [cheerfully] Bulba!
Stranger: Have a good one.
Marcus: Yeah... you too...
Marcus: ...
Marcus: ... hm. Maybe I was worried for nothing.
Marcus: Doesn't seem like anyone sees anything much wrong with you.
Marcus: There are a lot of unique Pokemon out there, so at this point, nobody really wonders.
Marcus: You'd have to know all... fudge, how many of them are there? Like, a thousand. You'd need to know all the thousand of them to see you as different.
Marcus: And... well, I only really know, like, 5 of them.
Marcus: When I asked you "what are you", I would've asked the same thing to that bulbasaur if it could talk. Except, only reason I knew that was a bulbasaur was because of all those ads for 10-year olds...
Marcus: Or, you know, I probably... would've asked that man about his Pokemon. Conversation. You know.
Marcus: ...
Marcus: ... yeah, I don't like talking to people much.
Marcus: Alright, let's get that antidote. My leg's starting to get a bit stiff.
(You don't have to wait for me to finish typing - interrupt whenever you want)
Yoshigamer2988YT
(sorry I was busy)
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: ...pick me up...I... wanna be held...
Aqua: I mean...you don't have to...
Yoshigamer2988YT
(how how's that picture you mentioned earlier coming along?
Drigil
In progress.
Marcus: ... [sigh] Alright...
Marcus: At least you're light.
Marcus: [they enter a shop]
Shopkeep: Good afternoon, how can I help you?
Marcus: Uh, hey. Yeah. I'm... I'm looking for some antidote.
Shopkeep: Oh, is your Pokemon poisoned?
Marcus: Uh, no. It's... um... actually, we're... uh, going camping. Tomorrow. In the woods.
Shopkeep: ...
Marcus: And... you know, just in case we get bitten by a snake or something, we wanna... be...
Shopkeep: Ah, you want to be prepared. Excellent idea.
Shopkeep: Here, this should be what you're looking for.
Marcus: Ah, t-thank you. This... um, this works on humans too, right? You know, in case-
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua found a chocolate bar and she grabbed it
Drigil
Shopkeep: Yes, they are universal-
Shopkeep: Oh hey, no!
Marcus: It's OK, I'll pay for it. Sorry.
Marcus: Sorry, she's a bit... needy...
Shopkeep: Ah. Hm.
Marcus: Uh, so... you just.. spray it on, right?
Shopkeep: Yes, right on the wound.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua looked upset as she put the chocolate back
Drigil
Shopkeep: And if it's small, there's a needle attachment right under the handle here. You just screw it in and...
Shopkeep: ... well, you know how needles work, I'm sure? You've had your shots?
Marcus: Ah. Yeah.
Marcus: Oh, you don't want that anymore?
Shopkeep: Quite an odd Pokemon you have there.
Marcus: We're... working on it. Being a trainer is tough.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she looked nervous
Drigil
Shopkeep: Indeed it is.
Shopkeep: Is that everything for you today?
Marcus: Well, we were actually looking for a bite to eat.
Shopkeep: Ah yes, just over there at the cooler.
Marcus: Alright, let's see. What do you want, Aqua?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: what's inside?
Drigil
Marcus: Well, you grabbed a chocolate bar, so you must know what sorts of things these packages contain, right?
Marcus: ... oh, what am I doing...
Marcus: See these packages? There's food inside. You can see what the food looks like and what it contains on the wrapper here.
Marcus: I'll let you pick one thing, alright? We'll both pick one thing each.
Marcus: So, which one looks more... appealing to you?
Marcus: ... and keep your voice down. We're the only ones here.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she looked inside...what did she find?
Drigil
(Your call - that's why I kept it vague)
Marcus: I'm getting myself an egg sandwich kit. Comes with carrots and pinap.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she grabbed a PB & J sandwich
Drigil
Marcus: [pays for all the stuff and they... are about to leave]
Marcus: [stops just at the door]
Marcus: [looks over at the cabinet - there are pokeballs inside]
Marcus: ... you really sure you don't want a Pokeball?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um... w-what would your parents say if they find the ball?
Aqua: and you said you didn't want to be a trainer...
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, it's... it's just...
Marcus: [Looks back at shopkeep - they're pre-occupied with the TV]
Marcus: [whispering] There are two team rocket guys outside...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: oh no...
Drigil
Marcus: [points out the window towards two men in purple uniforms]
Marcus: OK, I guess... just... shrink, and...
Marcus: ... hope they don't try to search me...
Marcus: Wait, do they know about your ability to shrink?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: y-yeah...I wanna go in a ball...also...they don't know about it...
Drigil
Marcus: Alright. Uh...
Marcus: ... hey, shopkeep, can I buy a new Pokeball? My old one's hinge is on the fritz. That's why I have my Pokemon out.
Shopkeep: Not a problem.
[Purchase is made]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I saw a pokeball called a water ball...it looked cool
Drigil
[Re-purchase is made]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um...so...how do these things work?
Drigil
Marcus: I... have no idea.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um.. don't you throw it?
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, but... um... OK, do you just... stand over there?
Shopkeep: You don't know how a Pokeball works?
Marcus: Uh, no. I got my Pokemon from... uh, my mom.
Shopkeep: Well, if it's your Pokemon, you just have to tap it with the button here.
Shopkeep: Just make sure it doesn't get afraid and break out, or you'll have to buy another ball.
Yoshigamer2988YT
soon...he was ready to catch her so he went to the forest to try it
Drigil
Marcus: Whew, glad we avoided those team rocket members.
Yoshigamer2988YT
he held the ball in his hands
Drigil
Marcus: Alright, reason for this is because, even though you can shrink, I imagine you don't want to be stuck in my pocket very long.
Marcus: At least with this, I can... well, pretend it's a keychain trinket or something.
Marcus: ... oh man. So much pretending... what's even real anymore...
Marcus: [reads antidote instructions in the other hand]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I'm going to be honest... I'm a little scared... about that pokeball...
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, I'm with you on that one. I can't imagine what's inside or... what it's like to go in one.
Yoshigamer2988YT
he got ready to throw it
Drigil
Marcus: But, you know, I don't think there's a single Pokemon out there that doesn't like their Pokeball.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I've heard that a Pikachu hates his ball....
Drigil
Marcus: OK. That's one in... how many Pokemon are there in town?
Marcus: I mean, you are the one that wanted it. You could've said no.
Marcus: I get it, you're lost and confused, but you gotta stick with your decisions.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it's... it's fine... let's do it...
Drigil
Marcus: Alright. Good luck.
Marcus: And don't worry, I'll take you right back out after. I promise.
Marcus: [throws]
Yoshigamer2988YT
[it hits and aqua was beamed into the ball...and 1.....2.....3....there was a click]
[he grabbed the ball...it worked]
Drigil
Marcus: Ok... um, what do I do now? Do I just... push the button?
Marcus: ... no, that made it shrink.
Marcus: Um... I just... throw it again?
Marcus: [tosses ball]
Yoshigamer2988YT
it fires a beam and aqua came out
Drigil
Marcus: [wide-eyed]
Marcus: ... OK, I gotta ask. What's it like in there?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it was...a white and grey room at first...then it suddenly turned into a small island...with a pond...and a tree...it was nice... but...I was lonely...
Drigil
Marcus: Huh. That's... actually really neat...
Yoshigamer2988YT
she hugged him...and he picked her up
Drigil
Marcus: Alright, let's go home...
Yoshigamer2988YT
he put her back in her ball and went home
CH 5 – A Cure for an Affliction

Yoshigamer2988YT
soon back home
Drigil
Marcus: Hi, Mom, I'm back.
Mother: Marcus! That was fast! How'd it go?
Marcus: It was... ah, it was awful.
Marcus: We were attacked. By the monster.
Mother: WHAAT?!
Marcus: Yeah, it bit me and chased after Aqua. I tried to follow, but-
Marcus: She's gone, mom. I couldn't...
Mother: Are you OK?
Marcus: Y-yeah, I... I went to the Pokemon Shop and got myself some antidote. I'm fine.
Mother: [checks now-uninjured leg]
Mother: Ohh! Goodness!
Marcus: Just bruising, mom. It'll go away overnight. You'll see.
Mother: That's... a lot of bruising.
Marcus: Yeah, that thing was huge.
Marcus: Reckon you'll see it on the news tonight.
Mother: You sure you're OK?
Marcus: Yeah, mom. Just fine. The shop attendant knew what he was doing. Just gotta sleep it off.
Mother: Oh. ... oh, Marcus, what about Aqua?
Marcus: She's gone, mom. But... but she's a really fast runner. I don't think we'll have to worry about her.
Mother: Ooh, it still worries me...
Mother: Oh, when your father gets home tonight... he's getting it.
Marcus: Looking forward to the fireworks, mom. Um, can I-
Mother: Yes! Of course! Get into bed right away!
Marcus: Thanks.
Marcus: [gets into room and changes pants]
Marcus: Hope blood comes out of jeans...
Marcus: [whispers in pocket] Hey, Aqua? You alright in there?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: yeah... I'm fine...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I can't believe it worked
Drigil
Marcus: It's only just begun...
Marcus: ... aw man, this is gonna be tough...
Marcus: ...
Marcus: Ok. Aqua. We need to talk.
Marcus: Those things... those things are chasing you.
Marcus: Are those the only things chasing you, or is there something else I need to know?
Marcus: Because if I'm gonna keep you hidden, I need to know everything about you, alright?
Marcus: Like, what you just did to me... you actually cured the poison and everything, right?
Marcus: [looking at bruised leg] Do I need to go out and actually get an antidote or anything?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it did cure the poison...but get a antidote... just in case...also...I don't know what I can do...it... kinda... scares me... He held aqua in his hand
Drigil
Marcus: Well, what else do you know you can do? You... OK, let's see... you can shrink, you can heal wounds...
Marcus: Unless you were messing about, you can blow bubbles...
Marcus: Though I don't know what that'll do for anything...
Marcus: What else have you done before?
Marcus: Because I don't want you to suddenly, out of nowhere, go "Oh, I can turn into a human at will too".
Marcus: Because, you know, that would just be mean.
Marcus: You know, putting me through all that when we could just pretend you're my girlfriend all along...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I can grow...to around 15 feet?
Drigil
Marcus: That... will really REALLY not help our cause.
Marcus: Maybe... don't do that.
Marcus: ... no? There's nothing else you can think of?
Marcus: ... well, then, I guess... as we go on, you'll figure things out.
Marcus: ... go out and find an antidote, huh? ... I'll... I'll have to wait a while. I mean, I just got back...
Marcus: ... wait, no wait, idea.
Marcus: Aqua. Stay quiet. I'm going to go out and... "look for you".
Marcus: [gets jacket back on and heads down stairs]
Mother: Oh, Marcus? Where are you going?
Marcus: Ah, I can't just sit here, Mom. I'm too worried about Aqua.
Marcus: I'm gonna go out and look for her.
Mother: Oh, would you like me to drive you?
Marcus: Uh, no! No, no, it's fine. It's... no, I don't want to trouble you.
Marcus: I mean, I brought this into my life, it's my responsibility.
Marcus: I mean... this is- just in case she came back to the neighbourhood, you know?
Marcus: Don't... don't want her wandering around here. Gotta make sure she...
Marcus: [sigh] ... that... father doesn't... see her...
Marcus: I'll just be right back.
Mother: ... oh, OK.
Marcus: [heads outside]
Marcus: [makes a show of looking up and down the block, and runs off and out of sight of the house]
Marcus: [panting for breath] ... hah... hah...
Marcus: Aw man, I hate running...
Marcus: Alright. Local shop's just four blocks that way...
Marcus: You alright in there, Aqua?
Marcus: Sorry, I kinda just shoved you into my pocket there...
Marcus: Hah... hah...
Marcus: ... aw man, I hope antidotes aren't that expensive...
Marcus: [long walk to the store]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I don't wanna stay tiny forever...
he pulled her out of his pocket
Aqua: can I be normal size when you're out of the house?
Drigil
Marcus: I, uh... don't know if you should. That thing could come back...
Marcus: And @#$%, man, healing power or not, I don't wanna get bitten again. That hurt a lot.
Marcus: But...
Marcus: [looks around]
Marcus: ... ah, I dunno. There are quite a few people around...
Marcus: ... ah, you know what? Sure, go ahead.
Marcus: Who knows; maybe you'll make another friend.
Marcus: But... maybe don't... speak to other humans.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she grew back to normal Aqua: why not? He got down to his knees and he looked her straight in her light purple eyes

[Random stranger approaches, walking with a bulbasaur]
Stranger: Good afternoon.
Marcus: [casually] Hey there. Out for a walk?
Stranger: Yeah. Beautiful day to be walking your Pokemon, am I right?
Marcus: Yeah, you bet.
Bulbasaur: [cheerfully] Bulba!
Stranger: Have a good one.

Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: ...pick me up...I... wanna be held...
Aqua: I mean...you don't have to...
Yoshigamer2988YT
(how how's that picture you mentioned earlier coming along?
Drigil
In progress.
Marcus: ... [sigh] Alright...
Marcus: At least you're light.

Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua found a chocolate bar and she grabbed it
Drigil
Shopkeep: Yes, they are universal-
Shopkeep: Oh hey, no!

she looked inside...what did she find?
Drigil
(Your call - that's why I kept it vague)
Marcus: I'm getting myself an egg sandwich kit. Comes with carrots and pinap.
Yoshigamer2988YT
she grabbed a PB & J sandwich
Drigil
Marcus: [pays for all the stuff and they... are about to leave]
Marcus: [stops just at the door]
Marcus: [looks over at the cabinet - there are pokeballs inside]
Marcus: ... you really sure you don't want a Pokeball?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um... w-what would your parents say if they find the ball?
Aqua: and you said you didn't want to be a trainer...
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, it's... it's just...
Marcus: [Looks back at shopkeep - they're pre-occupied with the TV]
Marcus: [whispering] There are two team rocket guys outside...
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: oh no...
Drigil
Marcus: [points out the window towards two men in purple uniforms]
Marcus: OK, I guess... just... shrink, and...
Marcus: ... hope they don't try to search me...
Marcus: Wait, do they know about your ability to shrink?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: y-yeah...I wanna go in a ball...also...they don't know about it...
Drigil
Marcus: Alright. Uh...
Marcus: ... hey, shopkeep, can I buy a new Pokeball? My old one's hinge is on the fritz. That's why I have my Pokemon out.
Shopkeep: Not a problem.
[Purchase is made]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I saw a pokeball called a water ball...it looked cool
Drigil
[Re-purchase is made]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um...so...how do these things work?
Drigil
Marcus: I... have no idea.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: um.. don't you throw it?
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, but... um... OK, do you just... stand over there?
Shopkeep: You don't know how a Pokeball works?
Marcus: Uh, no. I got my Pokemon from... uh, my mom.
Shopkeep: Well, if it's your Pokemon, you just have to tap it with the button here.
Shopkeep: Just make sure it doesn't get afraid and break out, or you'll have to buy another ball.
Yoshigamer2988YT
soon...he was ready to catch her so he went to the forest to try it
Drigil
Marcus: Whew, glad we avoided those team rocket members.
Yoshigamer2988YT
he held the ball in his hands
Drigil
Marcus: Alright, reason for this is because, even though you can shrink, I imagine you don't want to be stuck in my pocket very long.
Marcus: At least with this, I can... well, pretend it's a keychain trinket or something.
Marcus: ... oh man. So much pretending... what's even real anymore...
Marcus: [reads antidote instructions in the other hand]
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I'm going to be honest... I'm a little scared... about that pokeball...
Drigil
Marcus: Yeah, I'm with you on that one. I can't imagine what's inside or... what it's like to go in one.
Yoshigamer2988YT
he got ready to throw it
Drigil
Marcus: But, you know, I don't think there's a single Pokemon out there that doesn't like their Pokeball.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: I've heard that a Pikachu hates his ball....
Drigil
Marcus: OK. That's one in... how many Pokemon are there in town?
Marcus: I mean, you are the one that wanted it. You could've said no.
Marcus: I get it, you're lost and confused, but you gotta stick with your decisions.
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it's... it's fine... let's do it...
Drigil
Marcus: Alright. Good luck.
Marcus: And don't worry, I'll take you right back out after. I promise.
Marcus: [throws]
Yoshigamer2988YT
[it hits and aqua was beamed into the ball...and 1.....2.....3....there was a click]
[he grabbed the ball...it worked]
Drigil
Marcus: Ok... um, what do I do now? Do I just... push the button?
Marcus: ... no, that made it shrink.
Marcus: Um... I just... throw it again?
Marcus: [tosses ball]
Yoshigamer2988YT
it fires a beam and aqua came out
Drigil
Marcus: [wide-eyed]
Marcus: ... OK, I gotta ask. What's it like in there?
Yoshigamer2988YT
Aqua: it was...a white and grey room at first...then it suddenly turned into a small island...with a pond...and a tree...it was nice... but...I was lonely...
Drigil
Marcus: Huh. That's... actually really neat...
Yoshigamer2988YT
she hugged him...and he picked her up
Drigil
Marcus: Alright, let's go home...
Yoshigamer2988YT
he put her back in her ball and went home
