[VINCENT.]

Lance her eyes and take
one of those dream vacations.

“Somewheeeeeeere over the rainbooow! Way up hiiiigh! There’s a land that I heard of once in a lullabyyyyy!

[/color]”

The hideously off-pitch singing seemed to be blown back and forth across the thin woods, the very trees seemed to bounce back the hideous singing or maybe the effect was due to the fact of how loud he was singing. Somewhere within the woods a Sentret raised its head, ears erect in alarm of the new sound that penetrated the woods, and it stood still for a few seconds before it darted away as quickly as it could, its hurried paws kicking up a bit of debris in its wake. The branches and grass would sway gently in the breeze and the sky seemed to be a bowl of gray clouds dotted with cirrus clouds in the distance, only patches of the blue sky could be seen and although the clouds were a gray turning dark at the edges there seemed to be none of that usual darkening just before rain –in fact it was quite sun.

“Somewheeeeere over the rainbooow! Skies are bluue! And the dreams that you dare to dream! Really do come trueeee![/color]”

The youth with the hideously off-pitch singing seemed to be exaggerating things a bit, his voice would hit the highest notes at completely the wrong time and most of his verses would end in a little croak. His voice just kept shifting between too low and too high, however for the most part he seemed oblivious of the fact a wide smile touching at the corners of his lips and making dimples at the edges of his cheeks, his pace seemed to be a merry one almost jumping at the rhythm of the song, his arms would have forth and back in that exaggerated manner one would adapt when making fun of someone’s walking manner. He wore a simple black shirt with three buttons at the top and a folded neck, a dark green jacket was slung over his shoulders and tight fitting jeans made up his outfit. His shoes were simple dark colored sneakers worn out and dirty from the walking and of course he also a backpack which obviously contained Poke Balls as well as other necessary items for any trainer to have. He looked rather normal if it weren’t for the horrid singing.

“Nine-nine nine niiiiiine! Niiiine! Nine nine ni-niiiiine![/color]

Vincent’s voice was accompanied by an equally off-pitched one of his trusty Ninetales. Evangeline walked blissfully by his side following Vincent’s lead of the song perfectly, you would almost think she was singing the same thing –in her own way of course. She raised her paws too high of the ground making her look comical in her walk, her nine tails swayed behind her in their own rhythm, from side to side and up and down almost as if they had a mind of their own. Occasionally when a word from the song finished a rather long stretch she would give a tiny joyful jump and continue her singing. In truth they made a rather good team, however this did not better their singing in the slightest –if anything it made it worse.

But that’s exactly what the dynamic duo wanted. They wanted their singing to be so horrible and so annoying that anyone within a mile radius would cringe at the sound and run away in another direction or rather they wanted their companion to cringe and run away or at best be dreadfully annoyed. Especially more since the two have been keeping up the singing for the duration of the entire trip only occasionally would they cease their singing and when the moment came it was to throw some bitter and sarcastic reply in the other’s direction and if said person would reply just a sarcastically and bitterly both of them would throw a smirk in her direction and resume their hideous singing as if nothing had happened. Those kinds of things are bound to make anyone irritable.

“NIIIIIiiiiIIIIIIIIiiiiiiIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiine![/color]”

Vincent turned abruptly towards Evangeline, smirking delightfully. “Ah Jesus, way to go Gelie –you ruined it…[/color]” he remarked, pretending to glare at the Ninetales but his amusement clearly showing through. In response Evangeline flattened her ears against her skull and looked ashamedly at the ground, wiggling her toes, kneading the earth with her claws –all a ruse. “Whaddya say we take it from the top?!” he cheered, clapping his hands in delight. This time the Ninetales barked joyfully, running in a quick circle and positively wriggling with joy she barked again signaling Vincent to start. “Alright! From the top everyone! And a-one and a-two and a-three![/color]”

And the song began anew complete with new croaks and horrendous musical mistakes that should be rendered illegal by the singing police and all was just to annoy their guest. Or rather their job. Because you see Vincent’s current job was to escort a rather spoiled princess to Ecruteak and job that he wouldn’t do without a fight –well not a real fight. But he wouldn’t be reduced to an escort when he was capable of much more but he did his job nonetheless and agreed to do it mainly because he yearned for some human contact –not to communicate or anything but to annoy until they blew up into a million thousand confetti pieces. Normally no one would stick near him of his precious Evangeline for more than a few minutes and if you wanted to get on someone’s nerves you needed more than a few minutes. Unless the person was rather short-tempered.

“Biiiirds fly oveeeeer the rainboooow! Whyyyy then, caaaan’t Iiiiiiiiii?[/color]”

“Niiiiine-nine nine-niiiiii nine niiiiiiiiiiine! Niiiiiiine-nine niiiiiiine niiiiiine![/color]”

BUSINESS UP FRONT, PARTY IN THE BACK !

Blight's feelings about her current situation were quite complicated. Within Team Rocket she sort of felt alone without any real companions to call of her own who deeply cared for her. She was trapped in her own little 'castle' when she could have been with her actual family. To be honest she never thought of what her family reacted to her disappearance. Some would probably consider her lucky to be alive although Blight would have preferred to be dumped into the empty streets. She would have freedom to do what she wanted. She wouldn't have to face hundreds of judgmental and dishonest faces everyday. She wouldn't have to constantly push herself to her limits to make her place here not worthless. She hated being put as a weak figure. If she could she would demand a different title or simply fight back, but it would prove to others some sort of treason or something they could come up with to put against her. In fact, Blight was afraid she would become Team Rocket's ultimate symbol of humiliation and hopelessness. Still, she hated it that she just couldn't be left alone or was free to even just roam around outside of Team Rocket.

Let's not forget to mention she just had to receive the worst among of possible escorts she could get ever get.

Blight absolutely wished she was dumped on the streets right now. Her escort was just a walking hellhole to her right now. He's been so horrid and annoying since the beginning of the trip. She hated princesses right now. Blight wasn't even really a princess! No prince, no wonderful castle, no beautiful ball gown, no ultimate spoiled behavior, and of curse no happy ending. Granted, life wasn't so great but this was just brutal. The young man was simply singing totally off key and probably on purpose too. He seemed to be having a blast doing it too, seeing as he was performing a little duet with his ninetales. She sang along to song in her own way which just made Blight's time twice as worse. Eclipse couldn't help but simply gave a low growl at the two. She narrowed her eyes and tried not to glare at them. Blight could certainly notice, as Eclipse's claws slowly began to dig into Blight's skin. Damn it started to hurt. She stopped for a moment and gave Vincent a cold stare. "Are you trying to attract attention? That's the last thing I need! I just want to get through with this as quickly as possible without anything getting any worse than it could be now." She gave a weary sigh. Why even bother? He was certainly probably not going to listen. Well, at least he was causing negative attention. She was sort of grateful that someone, even if that person pretty much sucked, had treated her quite differently. "Can't you just cooperate for a little while...?" Eclipse scoffed at her question. She was probably right now. He would not cooperate, he would simply do the complete opposite. "I'm sorry if I just ruined your plans or something but I certainly did not want this to happen! I'm pretty that last time I checked I'm capable of going somewhere by myself." She gave another sigh and looked away. She didn't notice she sort of smirked. "What's the worst that could happen to me?" It was a good question. Being escorted by this guy, how can things possibly get any worse?

OOC - Lol sorry if it's not the best post but either way it'll be fun, for Vincent & everyone but Eclipse & Blight anyway >D

[VINCENT.]

and then when you go to sleep
I hope you wake up knowing.

To tell the truth Vincent was quite glad he was tuck with the little Princess today, after all, who else could he annoy so completely? A girl used to be so over-protected they would tie pillows around her chest and legs before sending her out of the room, though he would admit that that would be a tad annoying but the point was she was tightly protected by his organization. But not now, of course not, now she was stuck with him and Evangeline. He felt a synch of pride at how his friend always seemed to know exactly what was going through his mind and agreed that it was the right step to take. After all, how could they perform such a fantastic duet if they didn’t agree? How could they if they didn’t match every word and every sentence to perfection? Now if that wasn’t a true friend Vincent had no idea what was. It almost brought tears of joy to his eyes if it weren’t because he was only kidding around.

But Vince was also a tad annoyed he was a rich Team Rocket member, not the highest rank around but he had enough influence –thanks to his father- and he could at least hold his own ground. This wasn’t even the type of job he would even consider touching he was more along the lines of undercover spy that would get your trust and inject poison in small doses until finally you cracked. Those were the jobs he preferred, the ones he enjoyed doing. The ones his Pokémon were trained and prepared to do. He wasn’t some little girl’s escort and ultimate guardian. But he was asked so earnestly and promised such a nice pay that how could he refuse? It would be perfect to get a break from all the charm he was forced to exhibit he could just annoy people as he pleased –or in this case Blight, but something was something, right?

However despite his annoyance Vincent would protect the little princess if he was forced to without a second thought. Because no matter all the implications involved she was still very much his job and anyone who knew Vincent could say whatever they wanted but irresponsible was not a word that would fit in that list. Vincent always did his job no matter how hard or daunting it proved to be every task was always completed with efficiency and precision and this one would be no different. Besides it would be embarrassing to be caught as a failure in such a basic job.

However both his singing and his train of thought were interrupted rather abruptly.

"Are you trying to attract attention? That's the last thing I need! I just want to get through with this as quickly as possible without anything getting any worse than it could be now," she said furiously, Vincent could imagine her comically stomping her foot on the ground and fisting her tiny hands at her side.

A smirk materialized in his face then, a smirk that hinted on how cruel the young man could truly be. A smirk that sneered and jeered all at once, which hinted not only at strong sadism but would seem to be permanently screwed into his face like some kind of twisted doll. That kind of smirk you would see in a person that was completely sure of themselves or their task or maybe a smirk that would hint at some sort of madness. But now that was pushing it too far, how could a smirk be all those things when it was just the twisted version of a smile?

“Now my sweet princey-pants don’t get your crown all tied up in a knot, one’s best disguise can be the most obvious one,

[/color]” he said gleefully with a tiny tsk, tsk, tsk at the end of the sentence. “Besides you’re the one that wanted to go out for a midnight stroll unless I was informed wrong,” the smirk seemed to never falter from his expression and even as he spoke he words seemed to carry some of that sneer although his tone never suggested it, in fact his tone of voice was merry –like he had never known anything to be upset about in his life. Almost tediously so. However at the last bit of the sentence all humor seemed to vanish from his words and expression and he met Blight’s gaze as if expecting her to either confirm or deny the last statement. But it was only for a few moments before the smirk reappeared and all traces of seriousness were gone.

"Can't you just cooperate for a little while...?"

Now he was amused.

With a smile he turned to Evangeline which was attentively hearing the conversation but not providing any statement other than that understanding stare. But when her trainer turned towards her immediately her ears perked forward and her tongue lolled out of her mouth. “Whaddya say boss? Should we follow her majesty’s wishes?[/color]”

Evangeline grew serious as if for a minute seriously considering Blight’s request, she looked thoughtful as if counting every plus and every minus. However what hinted that this was nothing more than a mere joke was Vincent’s patient smile and that cruel gleam to his eyes. Then the Ninetales raised her gaze, seemed to smirk then slowly shook her side from side to side. Vincent’s smirk widened and he turned towards Blight, not really saying anything or expecting any answer but knowing all the same that she would feel aggravated by their lack of cooperation.

"I'm sorry if I just ruined your plans or something but I certainly did not want this to happen! I'm pretty that last time I checked I'm capable of going somewhere by myself."

Now there was a hint of desperation in her tone, interesting.

“Ruined my plans? I’m terribly sorry young lady but the one you owe an apology to is Evangeline[/color]” he gestured at the Ninetales which had set a tiny glare in Blight’s direction “I mean she had really important stuff planned for today monumental and now she’s all moody because of this. Do you have any idea what happens when Eva gets moody? Horrors my fiendishly annoyed friend! Horrors![/color]” as if to accentuate the point he threw his arms helplessly up in the air while Eva seemed to be silently laughing to herself.

"What's the worst that could happen to me?"

He smirked devilishly.

“Weeeeeell, I would need at least a dozens Tyranitars, a bomb, some stupid idiot willing to do whatever he or she was ordered and a bottle of glue,[/color]” he said with an approving nod while Ninetales giggled at his side “oh and a homicidal cop! Those always make for some good drama”

“Nine-nine![/color]”

“Ohhh, good suggestion Evageline!” Vincent chimed in, even though he obviously had no idea what the Ninetales had said or suggested “We can’t do that but we can certainly get her closer to the worst![/color]” It could be the years of knowing each other, it could be that they were actually more similar than it could be possible but somehow he seemed to strike true in his guess because Evageline responded by a swish of her tail which would be known as a wag and an excited nod.

Now what exactly those two were planning was beyond anyone’s guess.
