[O] The Seventh Wave

[Ice]

Did there always have to be such a little number of people joining the building? Why not just bring the rest all in at once, and finish this stupid job? Thoughts that ran threw Ice's head as she took her place to greet and let the others know that they dont have a great life ahead of them. Unless they enjoy it.
Something Ice didnt, ever.
She heard the plane outside, wondering how on this planet that Omni could trick people outside and then act as if the plain exploded. Mabey Omni just blew it up with something.
Anything could happen.

She sighed, right now, she could be asleep taking a long nap in the Staff area if she didnt have to greet children who didnt know how to put 2 and 2 together and make 4. If she told them, they died, then they thought it was a joke and everything because...

Children. Are. Stupid.

Ice rolled her eyes, Kindle couldn't do the job because he never spoke. Or hardly, and then Gale or Gaia... They do whatever in there labs with the subjects.

Oh, fun.

[Daniel]

The the dark night sky filled with a glow that none had seen before. The lord of darkness covered his eyes from the pure holy light. The dark storm clouds parted and from the sky the full moon glowed in all of this power. The moon beams covered the land, all horrors and chaos disappeared. From the moon beams came a being. A being born from the goodness of dreams. The moon goddess glared at the dark lord. The evil being could not take the bright light and disappeared into the shadows. The pokemon knew that its long enemy will never die, as it is born from the dreams as she was, the dark ones. She will live on, to defeat him every time. When her work was gone, she retreated to the moon, to come when she was needed, Cresselia. . . .

Daniel closed his book. This is one of few favorites. He just loved the old folklores of Cresselia. This creature, so beautiful but so powerful able, also able to bring good dreams. . . Sometimes I wish my dreams can be fulfilled. .

The plane to IASRLP Island had just landed. Daniel packed up the few books he brought with him, two 1,000 paged texts books on dreams affecting personality, a medical text book over how do dreams lead to medical diagnosis, 2 books of lore, 5 pounds each, and an astrology pamphlet on Chinese, Greek, Norse, and Egypt mythology.

Daniel was going to let the ladies off of the plane first but they seemed busy at the moment so he decided to go first. He slowly, and stumbling, walked out of the plane and onto the ground.

He noticed the foliage, "Very nice, very tropical indeed, from the southern hemisphere, near the equator I believe."

He looked over his shoulder, he wanted to wait for the others before talking to the particular women ahead. "She does seem a bit upset." Daniel murmured to himself.

[Nevada Jane]

Nevada stepped off of the plane after some boy, her blonde hair tied back into a short pony tail. Her tan skin covered by a pink sweatshirt and she also wore faded blue jeans. "Wow, its cold!" She shivered as she brought her bags with her, one by one, and followed the boy. She normally lived in a nice work tropical place, where pokemon had always been water. But this place was so diffrent it felt bitter cold.
"Hia! Im Nevada, how are yall?" She tilted her head. Looking at the girl who looked like a big grump, "She ain't darling at all is she?" Her head turned to the boy.

[Emily]

Emily stared eagerly out the plane window. I can't believe I got accepted for this. She closed her novel and carefully placed it into her backpack. Maybe five books were too many for three weeks, maybe not enough, however Emily was glad she had brought them. Even if they made her backpack very heavy.

She stood up and walked down out of the plane, wheeling her suitcase down with her. A woman wearing a blue bandanna was waiting, looking extremely bored. Emily assumed she was going to show them around after everyone had gotten off.
A boy with short pale hair caught her eye. She decided that introducing herself would do some good.
At the moment, he seemed to be commenting about things to himself.
"Hi, my name's Emily," she said to him, hoping that she wasn't interuppting his thoughts.
Emily didn't hear an answer, because someone else was calling out: "Hia! Im Nevada, how are yall?"

Startled, Emily turned to see an older girl with tanned skin and long blond hair tilting her head at Emily.

Before she could reply, the girl turned away and began talking to the other boy. Mildly irritated, Emily just stood there.

"She ain't darling at all is she?"

Emily clenched her fists, and wondered what was wrong with her appearence. I don't look that daggy do I?

Nevada Jane was to be her roommate, so Emily should be trying to get along with her rather than being sensitive to words not meant to do any harm to her.
Ignore it Emily, you got to just ignore it.

So, hiding her annoyance, she greeted Nevada with a smile.
"I'm Emily, nice to meet you."

[Daniel]

Daniel's thoughts got disrupted as two young ladies came out of the plane. One of them, a girl that seemed to be his age, was short and light skinned with a pink streak going through her brown, Hmm, this is peculiar, must it be like a fashion tend that those teen magazines talked about. . hmm. . . The other one was very different. She was taller and had very tanned skin and blonde hair tied back into a pony tail. She seemed like very cheerful, lively young lady.

Daniel was taken aback when both of them introduced each other at around the same time. he started to scan for any information in manner in the back of his head, I must not insult them. . . oh there!

He did one slight bow to the girls, "Hello there ladies," he head also tilted down, women were always to be treated like queens, as his mother taught him, "My name is Daniel Creag of Sootopolis." He straitened back up, "It is very nice to meet you," look toward the brown haired girl, "Emily," then he looked to the other, "and Nevada."

Then, Nervada spoke "She ain't darling at all is she?" and Daniel looked over to the blue cladded women just ahead of them, "I must agree to that. Something must be a bother to her. If she is to welcome us, that is not a face to greet."

After Emily had greeted Nervada, Daniel spied her overlarge backpack. He could tell that she must be carrying at the most 4 books. He couldn't let a lady carry that much weight, his mother would kill him. Daniel walked over to the lady, "Um, Emily, may I carry that for you?" He pointed to the enlarged back pack, "It seems a bit heavy."

[Emily]

"Um, Emily, may I carry that for you?" He pointed to the enlarged back pack, "It seems a bit heavy."
She blushed and said, "Thanks, but I don't need to bother you with that."
Emily quickly changed the subject. Looking toward the blue woman again she asked, "I wonder what's up with her? Normally someone more cheerful should greet people."
Another question reached her mind. How many people were meant to come? Thinking that she shouldn't bombard this boy with questions, Emily didn't voice it.

[Ice]

Ice only moved her eyes to look at the children and counted. One, two, three... fo.. No four. She made a note to tell Kindle to tell Omni that some of the children must die on the plane, kill themselfs, doze off, or miss there flight. Which would be rather dull, and she liked the idea of them being pushed out of a plane, and death on the plane herself.

She didnt have time to wait. "Hello, children," Her voice was overly cold and bitter, "Welcome. I am Ice, and I greet the people who just arrive." She glanced at the group of three which should of been four, "And I welcome you to the Island and hope you enjoy your stay." She didnt even sound like she even liked her job, and glanced at a sheet in her hand.

Doing this over and over again was rather dull so she tried to change it around a little bit. "You all came here to study a Legendary of your choice, but thats is not why you are here." She stepped away from her normal post, and glanced around for any pests. "This is not the place you thought it might of been, no study of Legendaries at all. No, children, only the study of you and you are the experiment and you will be studied."
She glanced at the group with a harsh frown, "I cant give it all away, and dont think you will be able to leave and go back to your families at this point. They all belive you are dead, now I understand your heart still beats.
"There was a harsh storm on your way here, really no storm, and two stupid bird pokemon happened to fly into the engines at this point of the storm. The plane started to go down," She moved her hand down, so even the dumbest of child would understand, "Then the plane hit another island and exploded," She dragged out the word 'Exploded' so they could here it, "Your all missing and dead, yet here you are alive and well. Step off this island and your dead."

She tried to make it simple, even if there was no way outside this building, she wanted to let them know that they would die if they stepped off it. She didnt know if this was true, but she said it anyway.

You know, to add.

[Emily]

Was this a joke? The woman didn't appear to be the joking type. She had said it coldly and seriously as if she didn't care about what her reactions would be.
I suppose that's why she's known as Ice.

They were not to be studying legendary pokemon. Emily and the others would be studied. They would be experiments; observed, studied and watched. Maybe this experiment could be something like analysing teen behaviour. It wouldn't be that bad. Why was everyone pronounced dead though.

We will be dead to everyone outside this island, Emily realised in horror. Nobody would ever see their families again. With a pang of hurt, she remembered kirlia was left at home. Emily would never see kirlia again. Or her family.

What was this experiment about if nobody could see their family again?

Attempting to contain her hurt, Emily asked, "What is this experiment?"

[Daniel]

Daniel watched as Emily had turned a bit red then said, "Thanks, but I don't need to bother you with that." Daniel shook his head. I was so hard now to be chivalrous when girls now were very independent and more courteous for others. Yet, he was not going to force her to do what she thought she could handle, "Alright, whatever you wish."

At that moment, the women in the strange blue clothing slowly walked over to their position. A cold but sinister look covered her face, this made the hair on Daniel's back raise, This is not a normal face emotion people have, only the clinically insane have been documented to have such a expression.

She then began talking in a ice voice, "Hello, children. Welcome. I am Ice, and I greet the people who just arrive, and I welcome you to the Island and hope you enjoy your stay."

Daniel had to blink a bit, So was I wrong about her? Except for the voice, she seemed normal. . .

Yet, the Ice woman had continued, "You all came here to study a Legendary of your choice, but thats is not why you are here. . . . . ."

At that moment, Daniel's eye dilated. This had to be a dre- no a nightmare. This seems to be something from a silly television show. . . nothing that would happen for real. Then she began to speak about their 'fake' death created to elude the world, erasing their existence. Daniel did not might that, the main reason for this little trip was to escape his crazed controlling mother but it still hurt deep inside that he will be unable to see his parents again, without any choice in the matter.

After some recovery, he regain poise and looked to the menacing Ice woman, "This is absurd, something that is just not done." He then spied Emily as she too had recovered a bit then she spoke, "What is this experiment?"

Daniel began to use his intelligent mind to figure out this strange puzzle, It has to be something rather elementary. . . they tricked us to bring us here. . . ask about the legendary that we want to study . . . tell the world we are dead. . . . hmmm. . ..

Daniel raise an eyebrow as his head slowly tilted upward to the others, "I believe. . I has to be some illegal experiment, taboo, the reason they must have us known dead and on this secret island, that no one knows about. Also, "He took a breath because his nerves were still agitated a bit, "the experiment has to something with our legendaries. . . therefore why would they need to know what pokemon we are researching?"

Daniel knew this was very basic analyze but he was very certain about those two idea, the experiment is illegal and is about the legendaries.

[Max]

Max's hair had just dried, and she had walked outside just in time to see Ice introduce a new wave of people to the island. And, apparently, she hadn't told them about the "Fusions". Great. More questions. But Max decided, just to annoy Ice, to tell them about it if they asked her. Well, as much as she could tell them, anyway. "Is she talking in half-truths again? Good guess, by the way". Max said, nodding towards Daniel. "You're halfway there". Then she turned to Ice. "You're a saddistic maniac who gets there kicks out of terrorizing kids, ya know? Congratulations, you've official joined the looney group". Max rolled her eyes and looked at the group. "She's probably not gonna say anything else aside from maddening clues and insults. It's probably a good idea to get out of the sun and go check out your rooms".

[Emily]

Emily examined Daniel as he voiced his opinion. She had just conisidered those things.

A tall girl with brown, streaked hair walked towards them. "Is she talking in half-truths again? Good guess, by the way". The girl nodded at Daniel. "You're halfway there." The girl turned to Ice and began calling her things that may or may not have been true.

Who was this girl? Why was she provoking Ice? And the big question still left unanswered; what was the experiment?

"She's probably not gonna say anything else aside from maddening clues and insults. It's probably a good idea to get out of the sun and go check out your rooms".

Emily silently agreed. Perhaps she should get away from the "sadistic maniac" before she could react to the girl's insults. But she should find out who this girl was firstly.

"Who are you?," Emily asked.

[Max]

Max turned to face Emily "I'm Maximum Ride, but everyone just calls me Max. And I'm the future Moltres 'morph". She said, then walked back towards the doors. "Are you guy coming, or do you all want to fry out here like eggs?" Max's hair whipped around her face, and she didn't wait for an answer, she just opened the door and stood there, not exactly patiently, but still... She was waiting, and if anyone wanted anything else before she got something in her stomach, well they could forget it. "Well? Come on, I want to get some food, and I'm not gonna wait much longer".

[Emily]

Future moltres morph. So they were going to turn to pokemorphs. Emily had no idea how to react to this infomation. I'll attempt to postpone the reaction until later.

"I'm Emily," she said to Max.
"Well? Come on, I want to get some food, and I'm not gonna wait much longer".
Igonoring the part of her head that repeated the words 'future moltres morph' over and over was going to be difficult, but she could have enough time to reach her room, write a journal entry and have something to eat.

Emily headed towards the door."I'll try and meet you at the food after I put my things away." She gestured to her suitcase and bulging backpack. "If I don't get lost."

Emily turned round to all the others said a quick goodbye and went out the door towards her room.

[Roderick Worstell]

((very late, but I'm here!))

Roderick had been nervous the entire trip. He was walking into a trap, he was almost certain of it, but the odd thing was, he absolutely hoped he was. If this was indeed a trap, that meant his brother was alive, and if his brother was alive, that meant they could get out of here together. He knew his brother, his brother could get him out of this, and if he couldn't, they could do it together. Looking around at the other people on the trip, he wondered absently if they had any idea. Maybe he was the only one.

As he got off the plane, he looked around. Well, it seemed nice enough. Not like they were going to stay in a bad place, at least. Still, his thought that maybe his brother had died vanished, when a woman came, and told them the story. This made Roderick grin. Well, he was right. Reid didn't die, he was abducted. Well, that was a relief. He was smiling wide, as he couldn't believe his luck. He would see his brother again, finally!

As the others talked, he just looked on at them, wondering what to do. Well, he guessed now was time to figure out his rooming. He was rooming with someone named Danielle, who was that though? Looking around, he shrugged, and wandered off. He had his room number, he'd set up luggage there.

[Ice]

Ice glanced at the group as they chattered. She scowled.

You're a saddistic maniac who gets there kicks out of terrorizing kids, ya know? Congratulations, you've official joined the looney group.

Eyes glared at her with a blank face, she got no kicks out of this. She only wanted to sleep.

"Very well, leave to your rooms. Enjoy your stay." Ice left quickly, rolling her eyes, she was sick of this.
