Welcome to Gaia! ::

Angel sighed as she brushed her royal blue hair to the side and lightly rubbed against the eye patch around her eye. She frowned a little not liking the events that have unfold lately. Kasai was currently covered in snow due to the horrible snow storm.The gymleader didn't want to bring her dragon pokemon out in such horrible weather. Aisu was probably going to be a jerk and not let her ride on his back anymore. But that's okay, she had other pokemon to help her transport to various places.

"Saiko! Come on already!" Angel yelled out only to regret it later.

The Arcanine quickly ran over towards her trainner who was impatiently waiting by the gym's exit. However, she was unable to stop and began to slide over towards the door. If they hadn't automatically open or close, Angel was sure that they needed to get a new one. Instead, Saiko crashed into a pile of snow.

"Geeze, are you insane?" Angel asked and then stapped outside, wearing very warm clothes to battle against the harsh cold snow. She felt something cold drop on her head and she frowned to realize that it was still snowing. "Damn it..." She growled and the pulled her goggles over her eyes and then climed onto the back of her Arcanine trying to think of a possible place they could go to.

"H-hey, y'know what? We should visit Peggy and see what she's been up to!" Angel exlcaimed and then gently patted Saiko on the head. "Use flamethrowing to make a path! It'll be easier to walk through!" The gym leader suggested happily.

"Walk? Can't I run? It's much faster!" The Arcanine insisted, her tongue hanging out from the side of her mouth to give a rather goofy look.

"It's too cold! I'm not in a mood to feel wind against my hair right now!" Angel complained. "Just do as I say!"

Rolling her eyes, the Arcanine nodded and then blew a flamethrower straight ahead. The snow that had been there previously had melted and the dirt road could finally be seen again.

"I don't know where She is, honestly. Maybe we can meet them on the way~!" Angel replied as the Arcanine began following the path she had just uncovered.

"Stupid snow" Angel grumbled and crossed her arms against her chest. "How are you doing Saiko?" She asked as the arcanine stopped firing to answer her trainner's question.

"Still going strong. Although, I do see someone coming over...I wonder if they are shiny...." The arcanine began to rant as she began to quicken her pace.

"Oh hey, I think I reconize the group!" Angel exclaimed as she lifted her goggles and then squinted her eye. "YO!" She cried out.

Angel chuckled at Bless and then shook her head. She rubbed under her eyepatch while ruffling the fur ontop of Saiko's head. "It's only Saiko~!" She explained and said Arcanine stood up proudly with a large goofy grin.

Saiko tilted her head when she saw Coora and smiled. "HI THERE!" She barked out loud only to get a scolding bop on the head. The Arcanine whimpered and looked down. "Sorry!" She squeeked and then looked over her shoulder ot see that Angel had a rather satisfied look on her face. Saiko sighed and then turned to face Peggy's group.

"Sorry about that...it seems Saiko hasn't really calmed down when it comes to hyoeractive-ness...neh?"

"Ahh, I understand what you mean!" Angel smiled and her uncovered eye turned into a upside down 'U'. There was a drop of sweat on the side of her head. "I can't stand this cold weather. My dragon pokemon aren't good with the cold!"

Saiko huffed slightly. "I like this kind of weather though!" She says and then blew out a small flame from her mouth that quickly dissapeared as soon as it came. She grinned and Bless and bowed her head. "It's great, isnt't it?"

"WHaaaaat?!?!" Saiko gasped, her jaws wer hanging. The arcanine was surprised. "I was reeeeeally that small?!!??" She tilted her head and frowned. Saiko wasn't really sure if she was that small. but then again, she never really measured herself and wouldn't know.

Angel was about to put her two cents in when she began to visibly shake. She tugged her warm clothes even closer to her and pulled her goggles over her eyes again. The girl then looked at the sky and noticed that the slow falling of snow began to fall faster. The wind in the air was become more frequeant and as the minutes go by, even fiecer and possibly more violent.

"s**t....the weather is getting worse...." Angel frowned and then hugged close onto Saiko's body for more warmth. "I think a blizzard might start....perhaps you should come over to Kasai and stay in the gym with me...ATleast until the snow stops..."

"RIGHT THEN!" Angel shouted out over the harsh howl of the wind. Saiko turned her body over so they were facing back towards the extrance of Kasai, only to sweat drop at the sight. The path that the arcanine had just mad was already covered up!

"Okay you guys! STay close! DOn't want to lose you in this storm!" ANgel called out from over her shoulder. She then looked over towards Saiko and a big grin spread across her face. "Use your flame thrower like before and melt down a path for us!"

Saiko nodded. "You got it!" The pokemon growled out and then blew out a large and powerful flamethrower to create a long and wide path for the group.

"Right! We should hurry and get over to the gym before the storm covers it up again!" She motioned Saiko to get moving. And that was what the arcanine did, stopping once in a while to melt out a path and wait for the others to catch up with them.
