((I'm assuming it's sunny out right now))

Kailani stared at the seas ahead.

"It looks clear enough," He muttered, "But what about night? Do you think we can go when it's pitch-black out."
 
((If it's sunny then the dark clouds and the drizzling rain must have magically disappeared))

"Night shouldn't be a problem," Chimecho said, "All I need is light and a compass, and I'm good."
 
((*Sighs* why must I keep acting so stupid like this?
Ah, let's say that Kailani was being sarcastic, then))
 
Ambipom shoved Meowth into the water. He screeched. "What did you do that for?" he asked.

"Oh, nothing," Ambipom replied casually.

"Now my DS is all wet."
 
Toonga looked at the waves churning below. She had visited the beach several times, but never had the temptation to taste this water overcome her as much as it did now. She had thought that all water tasted the same, an indescribable taste, not sweet or sour or spicy, but not bland either. She had thought that all water tasted like... what was a word to describe it... metallic. Yes, it tasted a bit like cool, liquid metal. But this water didn't seem clear like the water she was used to, it looked more opaque, with a mixture of blues and greens, and the occasional spot of white sea foam. She reached out her tongue tenatively and let a wave hit it.
Instantly she knew that this was not normal water. It wasn't metallic at all, it was salty, like a freshly-fallen hailstone. She spat it out and rubbed her tiny arms up and down, trying to get rid of the taste, but it would not go away.
She moaned. For some reason she was thirstier than before, but she didn't want to drink that water again. It was starting to make her nauseous.
 
"Careful." Feather paused from her training and looked at the Lickitung tasting the water. "That's full of salt. Maybe it might be full of other things like seaweed too. I suggest you don't drink it." She leaped back onto the boat, but Munchy was still enjoying his backfloat. Luckily, though, he was riding the waves fast enough so that he kept up with the boat.
 
(Hey Blaziking, don't you mean Sharpedo infested waters? ;D)

"Don't bother." Atnura mumbled. "Lickitung like to taste everything..." The Poochyena let out a small sigh, thinking vaguely about the danger of the mission. Why did her parents have to force her?

Though being in the guild was interesting at times, she had had her fair share of stress. One time, on a mission to help a Pidgey find their Starly friend, she nearly had a heart attack as the Pidgey was attacked and there was nothing she could do to fend it off. She didn't think she could handle it any more, she was powerless to do anything.
 
Bonsai watched both scenes, the Ambipom who had pushed a Meowth into the water, and the Lickitung who had tasted the water, and was the Blaziken and Poocheyna who were talking.

He then wandered over and said to the Blaziken, "Greetings, are you sure your friend will be able to keep up with us?".
 
Lita relaxed as Flamestorm kept trying to find some way of keeping the fire on his tail safe. He kept fussing around until Lita finally decided to help. She spread the leaves on her arm over it.

"Happy?" She asked.

"Yes," Flamestorm replied.
 
"Sure he will!" Feather replied, smiling. "He's actually a pretty good swimmer."
She looked over to Munchy, who was beginning to climb back onto the boat. It rocked a bit before steadying again as he stood in the middle.
 
((Okay, there's nothing much left for Day 1, and we all seem to get the gist of this))

DAY TWO: ARRIVAL
Objectives: Arrive in Aura at the town and talk to Whiscash about the plate.
----------
"Chatot sir! Wake up sir!"

Chatot slowly opened his eyes to see Chimecho hovering over him.

"Are you up sir?" she asked curiously. Chatot groaned and stood up.

"What did you want me for?" he mumbled. Chimecho looked at him for a moment, as if trying to understand what he was saying, before answering.

"There is land way off into the distance!" Chimecho answered excitedly. "The winds were very favorable last night, and so we'll be landing in an hour or so." Chatot gave a faint smile and flew on deck.

The clouds were almost pitch black. It was obvious that there was a serious storm coming. He yawned. "Are we going to make it there before the storm hits?" Chatot asked.

"That, I do not know. Probably we will," Chimecho answered, looking off into the distance.
 
Isabelle yawned and smacked her lips, standing up. She shook off, spraying a few embers onto Ice King. The Empoleon rolled over but did nothing else.
Isabelle stepped out from under the pile of empty crates and cringed at the sun. She slowly opened her eyes, getting used to the bright light.

A while later, Ice King, who was not under a pile of crates but out in the open, stood up also, stretched and yawned. "Good morning, Isabelle," he said.
 
Toonga awoke to find her tongue lolling out, the end dangling about three inches off the side of the boat. She managed to fit it all back in her mouth, then decided to go looking for some food.
 
"Oh, goody," Kailani muttered, looking at the sky.

"We're so close to land, yet if the storm should come, we're sitting Psyducks. What's left to do? Play the waiting game."
 
Atnura stirred. Time to wake up. Although she had barely gotten any sleep on that boat as it was. It wasn't the same as her next, soft warm bed. And she kept having... strange nightmares. The Poochyena hoped she hadn't made any sounds whilst asleep, that would've been embarassing...

She remembered a vague nightmare. All she could remember was that she had tripped over something... she felt her body shaking. Her actual, real body... was her actual real body screaming as well?
 
Feather awoke from a deep sleep... on Munchy's pillow-like belly. She had nowhere else to rest, and his steady breathing had lulled her to sleep. Now that she was awake, she jumped off and gave Munchy a kick in the side. He still slept soundly, however, and the Blaziken decided not to wake him. She wished she could see the light of dawn; however, the sky was always cloudy now.
 
Flare yawns, streching his arms. He tunr s to Torie with a smile.

"Morning Torie, it's a nce old- ....damnit, she's still sleeping"

He walks over to her and starts to poke the snorlax, trying to wake her up. He then turns to the sleeping dou to his left and poke the Raichu named Jewel.

"Help me wake her up"
 
Ambipom reductantly woke up. "I had the weirdest dream... Hot dogs bombed the boat."
 
Feather giggled at Ambipom's dream. "I think I had a dream that I was a Swellow!" she said happily.
This woke Munchy, and he added, rolling over and getting up (with effort, due to his large belly), "I had a dream that I was surrounded with endless piles of potatoes... Such joy...." He licked his lips as he began to remember.
