Rouge: heh, not sure how well that would work out. i suppose we could try it though.

Tundra: Wouldnt hurt to try. *he smiled at her*

Rouge: guess not. *checks vision pool real quick* yep, they're still flying. oh, wait. they landed in forrest clearing. *looks at him* we can get there faster by teleporting. *suddenly grabs him and teleports to the forrest.* the clearing should be over in that direction. *points to thick bushes*

Tundra: Hmmm well.....whoa!!! *then sees himself in the forest* oh boy.....um ok lets....go....

Rouge: *walks torwards bushes*

ooc: hey, i'm gonna log off for a bit, do a little shopping, hopefully get Pokemon B/W. hopefully. i may come back. if i don't, i'm probally sucked into a Pokemon game. anyway, see ya.

Tundra: *follows her*

OOC: Ok cool im actually thinking of getting pokemon black but im not sure if i have the funds yet lol. but ok see ya cyn

ooc: i'm back! and guess what, i got Black! ^ ^ might log off again though to play it. i choose Oshawot, the water type. i already caught a Lillipup and a Patrat. ^ ^

Rouge: *walks through the bushes and sees Slean and Glacier. they're too busy talking to notice.*

ooc: O.O pkmn!!!! yay! I got snivy and my first good addition to my team was Blitzle!

ooc: cool. i already caught a full team, plus a couple others. i got my first badge and my starter evolved.

Tundra: *looks at them and ten looks at rouge whispering to her* They are just talking again....

Rouge: *nods. whispers* yeah, they don't even notice us...
*both continue talking*

Tundra: hmm wanna have them notice us? *he whispered to rouge*

Rouge: *nods, whispers* yeah. you start this time.

Tundra: Alright.. *approaches them* Mom...Dad?

OOC: its been awhile since u have been on lol, how are ya?

ooc: i'm good. how are you?

Slean & Glacier: *look at him* what?
Rouge: *walks up beside Tundra*

Tundra: Ok mom, what are you up to? *he asked looking at her curiously.

OOC: im ok, im sick but ok.

ooc: being sick is no fun, but at least it doesn't sound too bad.

Slean: well, we decided to check out a cave by a waterfall, but we forgot where it was.
Glacier: it was this way, i'm sure of it! *points in one direction*
Slean: no, you old fool, it was that way! *points in the opposite direction*
Rouge: *looks at Tundra, whispers* sounds like they're argueing...

Tundra: *whispers back at rouge* Yeah i know.... Ok STOP!!!! *he demanded and called out at them*

*both look at him*
Slean: don't you use that tone with us!
Glacier: right, like you're not using a tone right now.
Slean: *looks at him* well, at least i didn't get us lost!
Glacier: you were leading the way, so you did get us lost!
Slean: well, you kept telling me which way to go!
Glacier: because you had no clue!
Rouge: ok, enough! geez, you two are arguing like a bunch of kids!

Tundra: Yeah sheesh, relax you guys. Now two questions one why are you guys wanting to go to this cave? And second maybe we can help?

Slean: no, no, you two can't help. this cave is nearly impossible to find, even if you've been there before.
Glacier: i still say its this way. *points*
Slean: no, it is--
Rouge: stop! no more fighting! and why can't we help? how hard is it to find a cave? and why are you looking for a cave? i thought you were going to play pranks?
Slean: we were going to play pranks, but your father refused to do what i asked.
Glacier: your prank was way over the top. you could have given someone a heart attack, and i wasn't going to stand for that.
Slean: so, we decided to see if we could find this old cave that we had been to before.
Glacier: yes, it was right by the waterfall, which was down the river from where we met.
Slean: yes, we got into an argument over what we had found in the cave, and niether of us can remember exactly what it was we saw.
Glacier: so we were going to find out. only, now, we can't even find the cave. or even the river which leads to the waterfall.

Tundra: Ok now that we have things cleared up, We'll help you guys weather you want us too or not. *turns to rouge* Have you been to this cave they speak of? Because I think i have seen it before once when i was younger.

Rouge: i think i saw a cave by a waterfall when i went out to play pranks once. i didn't get a good look though. and i didn't think to go exploring.
Slean: like i said, its hard to find.
Glacier: which is why we're still wandering around lost.
Slean: we are not lost. we're somewhere between here and the cave, and that's all we need to know.
Glacier: with that being said, its no wonder why we're lost.
Slean: ugh, how can it be this hard to find it?
Glacier: i don't know. i hardly remember the cave at all. but i'm sure its this way. *points again*
Slean: right, you hardly remember the cave, but you think you know where it is? you old fool, there's no possible way you could find it on your own. you'd be wandering around lost for days.
Glacier: oh, right, like you're doing any better. flying about confidantly, feeling sure it was over that way, when all we found was more trees. yeah, you're not lost at all...
Slean: there's no time for your sarcasm now, Glacier. i was sure the cave was this way. *points*

Tundra: Fine how about we split up? I go with mom, and rouge you go with dad? How does that sound whoever finds it first will use on of their attacks in the air to signal that we have found it ok?

Rouge: why are we splitting up like that?
Slean: oh, who cares, as long as i get a break from that old fool, i'll be happy.
Glacier: i could use a break as well. well, Rouge, looks like you and me are traveling buddies. *cracks a smile*
Rouge: yeah, looks like it. why don't you lead the way.
Glacier: alright then. we'll signal the two of you when we find the cave. farewell. *walks off*
Rouge: *follows him*

Tundra: *calls out to rouge* Hey reason for this, is well for mom and dad to relax abit and maybe we can do some detective work to see why they want to find this cave, and maybe bond abit more you know? *he told her whispering.*

Rouge: *glances back* makes sense. just keep Mom from causing trouble. *grins a bit*
Glacier: come on, Rouge, i'm positive the cave is this way. *keeps walking*
Rouge: i'm coming! *rushes after him*
Slean: *sighs* hopefully that old fool won't get on Rouge's nerves. she can have a short temper at times.

Tundra: Funny mom. I wonder where she got that from? *looks at her grinning*

Slean: *looks at him* nevermind that. *turns in the opposite direction* i'm sure the cave is this way. *starts walking*

Glacier: i think i see something! *picks up the pace a little*
Rouge: really? *follows him*
Glacier: yes! there! over there! *points. then breaks out into a run. then suddenly stops*
Rouge: *runs over to him and looks* uh, Dad, that's just a really big boulder.
Glacier: *looks closely* goodness, you're right. i must be getting old, my eyes are failing me.

Tundra: Your funny mom. *he said as he looks at her.*

Slean: *glances at him as she walks* how so?

Rouge: *snickers* i guess so, Dad. lets keep going. *continues walking*
Glacier: *follows her* ugh, i hope i don't go blind. funny, i don't feel as old as i may seem. i can still fight, you know.
Rouge: yeah, i believe you, Dad. you're not that old.
Glacier: well, thank you. i'm glad someone thinks so. *chuckles a bit*

Tundra: Well the way you act towards dad and the way you act like you dont care about certain things. *he said chuckling abit*

Slean: and how else am i to act? i was raised to be evil, so my personallity tends to be dark.

Rouge: oh, Dad, you know Mom is just teasing or whatever, right? i mean, you may be a little scatterbrained or absent minded at times, but you're that big of an old fool.
Glacier: perhaps you're right. but to be honest, i simply don't understand you're mother. there was a time when i thought i knew her, but i never truly knew what she was like. perhaps i never will. she is a mysterious dragoness.

Tundra: Yeah I guess, but what i still dont understand from it all, is that you act all dark and act like you dont like dad. But.....I still dont get out of all the dragons you could've chosen why dad? Even if you knew he was good.

Slean: *sighs* but that is percisely the point. Glacier is good. the evil dragons that i knew never cared for having a mate. they were too preoccupied with destorying the world, or ruining the world, or some other evil plan. if a female talked to them and asked if they would like to spend time together or whatever, the male would simply say he had an evil plan to fullfill. and the rare chance there was a male that was actually somewhat intrested in having a mate, wasn't worth the trouble. only a good dragon could care about such things as having a family. evil only cares about chaos and destruction.

Rouge she is mysterious and hard to figure out. but it doesn't mean its impossible.
Glacier: *sighs* perhaps you're right. but you are a lot like her, even if you arn't evil.

Tundra: Well I guess I can see that being a problem. But then why would you want a family mom? You just said it yourself, evil only cares about chaos and destruction.

Slean: *sighs again* exactly. evil can not care about the welfare of other beings or raising a family. i may have a dominant dark side, but unlike the dragons i once knew, i was never pure evil. when i was Rouge's age, i was just like her. but my parents were evil, and wouldn't tolerate me being neutral, or worst yet, good. they did a ritual to corrupt me, the same ritual that thier parents used on them. the ritual dates back centuries in my family. no one in my family has started out evil, but they were corrupted at a young age, so they never knew any other way. but in the end, good always wins, dosen't it? any exposure to good may cause a corrupted dragon's good side to start shining through. the more the good within fights back, the more the dragon feels that there is more to life than chaos and destruction.

Rouge: yeah, well, i'm forced to do this dark ritual, which is supposed to enhance one's dark side, and destory the good within.
Glacier: *sighs* yes, Slean's family ritual..... i was afraid she was doing it to you....

Tundra: But mom, why cant you stop all this. Dad still loves you, and well you have a son too. Heck you even tried to get me to be corrupted...... *he said looking down abit*

Slean: hmm, yes, and that was a failure. i neglected to see the strenght of your good side. your father has had a greater influence on you than i thought. Tundra, i can tell you are good. but Rouge is diffrent. it is obvious she is neutral. she is still uncertain of her side, and can be easily swayed. that is why the ritual will work on her. plus, she has been around evil since she first hatched. she has been exposed to it, she's used to it. she is less likely to be frightened of evil or try to fight it because it is a part of her life. she could easily be evil if she chose that side.

Rouge: but it isn't that bad. i mean, the potions and stuff taste bad at first, but after a while, you get used to them.
Glacier: Rouge, it is an evil ritual. there is nothing good about it. and the fact that you're getting used to it is only more upsetting.

Tundra: *stops* Mom will you listen to yourself?

Slean: *stops and looks at him* look, i know you don't want Rouge to be evil, but she does need to choose a side. she won't last long if she doesn't have a deffinite side with allies to help her. if she remains neutral, sooner or later, both sides will see her as a treat, and one or both will attempt to elliminate her. and with niether side willing to help her, she won't stand a chance. i will not allow her to die at a young age. that is one thing i will not stand for. she must choose a side and stick with it. but she prefers to be neutral. that is what worries me. that is the main reason why i try to influence her with the ritual. i can only hope it has some effect on her, and causes her to choose a side.

Tundra: Well then let her chose for herself mom! I worry about you and her sake too! And one thing that angers me about all this is that, you dont even sound like you even care about me either, like you've lost all hope for your other child too. Either im good or evil that should not be a reason to act like i dont exist. *he said glaring at her with a hurt look on his face*

Slean: *sighs* i simply don't worry about you. i know your father has done a good job raising you, and when he is gone, you will take his place as the ice king. i know you are also a skilled fighter, and can pretty much take care of yourself. Glacier has done a good job. but i have yet to get through to Rouge. i have a lot of work to do if i am to prepare her to take care of herself, and like i have already said, she must choose a side. and she shows no signs of doing so. i'm not even sure of how well a fight she is, because she simply refuses to train. she only cares about playing pranks. with her immature behavior and lack of effort to work at all to prepare herself, i worry she won't be ready to go off on her own and care for herself.

Tundra: Yeah because i did a good job being raised just by my father and with out you.....*he said to her walking past her angerly* Oh and by the way, you may think rouge may not know how to fight, but she sure gave me a good fight i havent had in the ice kingdom in along time.

Slean: she probally only used her powers to trick you and avoid your attacks. that is all she does. she is a neutral trickster, nothing more. that is what frustrates me and worries me.

Rouge: *hears a faint sound* hey, Dad, did you hear that?
Glacier: *listens carefully* hmm...... oh! it sounds like rushing water!
*both run ahead and reach the river* haha! the river! we finally reached the river!
Rouge: great! now, all we have to do is go the right way, get to the waterfall, and find the cave.

Tundra: Yeah, she has poison and ice attacks, believe me. I used my attacks to neutralized her clones. And tricks dont work on me that easily mom.....

Slean: still, she lacks brute strenght. and she simply wears down her opponent and fools them. she rarely attacks with force to defeat them. she doesn't fight, she 'plays.' everything is a game to her.

*Glacier and Rouge follow the river, and soon reach the waterfall*
Glacier: this is it! we reached the waterfall!
Rouge: *looks around* so, where's the cave?

Tundra: Maybe thats her style mom, but she did have a good fight with me. But I think you ought to let her mom, let her choose what she wants to do. Just because your parents forced you to choose doesnt mean you have to force rouge to do the same. Let her be herself, regardless. *he told her as he kept looking.*

Slean: but her so-called 'style' may not be good enough. there will be someone who won't fall for tricks, and will be able to overcome her in battle. without her little tricks, she will have a small chance of winning fights. the loss of a fight could lead to the loss of her life.

Glacier: *looks around* i don't see the cave...
Rouge: *peeks behind bushes. gasps* aha! i see it! Dad, i found the cave!
Glacier: *looks* great job, Rouge! now to signal the others.
Rouge: but how?
Glacier: by combining our elements. i'll shoot an ice shard into the sky, and then you hit it with an acid ball. ok?
Rouge: *nods* sounds good to me.
*Glacier shoots an ice shard into the sky. then Rouge hits it with an acid ball. the ice shard shatters with a small blast, and little chips of ice spread out in all directions, almost like a mini firework made of ice.*

Tundra: hmph shows what you may know mom.... Anyways I....Oh look theres signal, looks like they found the cave!!! *he said as he headed towards the signal*
