Location: Cove Town Outskirts

Justin: *Adjusting my head and clothing* Hm…hmm…hm. *I see the camera.* Wha? Oh hi! Welcome back to another chapter of Regrets, Amends, and Love! Before we get into the nitty gritty, I need to see if the opening screen shot is OK…Lights and air conditioner!

Employee: The lights are broken and the air conditioner releases very cold and strong winds. *Air conditioner blows.*

Justin: That's PERFECT! Keep just like that! :D *Everyone else shrugs.*

So where was I...oh yeah! First things first...THIS STORY IS GETTING A NAME CHANGE!

Oshawott: Wait...WHAT?!

Justin: It's still Regrets, Amends, and Love, but it is now going to be part of the series: The Chronicles of Pokepark!

Oshawott: Ooh I like it! It has a nice zing to it.

Justin: So this story is officially part of The Chronicles of Pokepark series that comprises of different events with Semi-Xover twists! There will be plenty of them so stay tuned!

Justin: Next off, I know that people are going to ask me what the story has to do with the title, so here is my idea around the title.

My story title is actually set around 3 GREATER CHAPTERS (Not individual chapters) So, this first section of the adventure will center around Regrets. Later, we will get into the section where Snivy and Oshawott will be cool with each other again, that's Amends. Then, in Section 3, as this is Romance, they will begin to fall in love with each other. But that will be a while before we get there. Like I said, this will be a long term story.

Justin: Also to point out, Chapters 1-5 had a rewrite! I removed that blood from Snivy's body because looking back on those chapters, I felt slightly uncomfortable with the sudden gore and blood, but now that we are 7 chapters in, I might bring the blood back.

Also, I added some more rules to the Side-Quest page, so check that out for the new rules.

Right, so onto the chapter recap.

Tepig: OH OH OH! Let me do the Previous Chappie Recap!

Oshawott: *Face Palms*

Justin: Er…sure…I guess…(Dear Arceus I hope he does it right...)

Tepig: So what happened last time? Well…

Previously: Our two Parties continued their adventurous day in Pokepark. Snivy's Party helped out with a Side Quest from Krookodile and had a little Heart-to-Heart with each other, meanwhile, Oshawott's Party helped out Patrat in his Side Quest. Both teams made some affinity with each other and the area they were exploring. Now Oshawott and Tepig's most recent Quest, they met with Tony the Riolu and he needed help with training with his weapon. And that leads to Oshawott's one-on-one fight with Tony.

Oshawott had widened eyes.

Justin: *Smiled* Wow Tepig, you even said it the way I would have!

Tepig: *Did a cool act* Watcha expect?

Justin: Anyway, we are now continuing the battle between Oshawott and the OC!

I also want to credit: ash the pokevenger again. Go check him out if you have the time!

We are also going to see how the OC's will work in my story. And finally, don't expect this chapter will be as long as last time…

Justin: Alrighty! Now we move forth hence forth!

Oshawott: Who even says that anymore?

Justin: ME! ;D Tepig disclaimer if you would!

Chapter 7: Clash of Blades

Oshawott and Tony got onto the field. Lots of spectators were looking down at the fight. Tepig was cheering for Oshawott. Oshawott and Tony stood each other down.

"Good luck Oshawott!" Tony said.

"You too!" Oshawott replied.

Oshawott thought to himself, (I don't have Tepig with me, so I won't be able to Topple him. I'll just have to keep attacking.)

3…..2…..1…

GO!

*Music: Time to Fight! – Xenoblade Chronicles*

Oshawott and Tony charged at each other, they swung their swords attempting to hit each other, and instead, the swords clashed together. They jumped back and started trading blows to each other.

"Oshawott! Use your Arts. Use your Arts!" Tepig called out.

"I think I'm fully aware!" Oshawott replied back.

Tepig had a look of, 'Okay, geez calm down.'

"Hurragh!" Tony cried out as he swung his blade.

Oshawott swiftly avoided the blade and ran to the back.

"Have a taste of this one Tony!" Oshawott jumped into the air, "Back Slash!"

The attack landed successfully and it did some extra damage since the attack was from behind.

"Youch!" Tony cried out in pain.

Oshawott ran back to the front and went for an auto-attack (that means normal attack). Tony quickly rolled out of the way, but cringed as the scalchop grazed him.

Tony bent down on one knee with a pained expression, trying to recover.

Oshawott took this chance and went in for his Talent Art.

"Turn Strike!" Oshawott spun around and diagonal slashed the Riolu.

"Augh…" Tony moaned.

"Yeah! Go Oshawott!" Tepig cried.

Cheers were erupting around the Battle Ring as the spectators got an opportunity to see a battle and some Arts in action.

Oshawott jumped back after his slash, and noticed that Tony has been inflicted with Break, but the Water Type grunted, "I can inflict Break, but that alone does nothing, and I have no way to Topple this guy either…what do I do?"

"Guh…Gah..." Tony used his sword as leverage and pulled him-self up as he had a pained expression.

Tony decided to complement Oshawott, "Your Arts are really powerful and impressive." Oshawott smiled back, but Tony grinned. "But do you really think that you're the only one with Arts."

Oshawott's eyes widened as the Fighting Type dashed towards the Otter and he called out, "Luxcaliber!" With that, the sword sparked electric energy and Tony swung down and struck Oshawott with a high powered electrical blow.

"AAUUUGGHH!" Oshawott screamed.

"YYYYYYEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The crowed blew up in cheers as they saw that beautiful turnabout! But Tepig's eye's widened in horror.

Oshawott skidded back a few feet with a worried look, "Wh-what the heck?"

Tony took no time and went for an auto-attack while he still had the opening.

Oshawott was knocked back slightly and skidded backwards on his feet. He had a shocked expression, "Tony! You know Arts?!"

The Riolu gave an evil smirk, "That's right! And Luxcaliber is not the only one either!"

Tony lifted his sword high into the air and exclaimed, "My Talent Art! Volt Chaser!" The blade flashed and had sparks travel around the face and edges of it.

"Shit, that looks powerful!" Oshawott cursed.

Tony ran up to the detective and struck with an auto-attack which emitted big sparks upon contact.

Oshawott was lying on the ground, Tepig was getting very nervous, and the crowd cheered at the battle.

Oshawott shook it off and asked, "Why does that auto-attack feel more powerful than last time?"

Tony replied, "My Talent Art: Volt Chaser, increases the power of my Arts that use electricity."

Oshawott said, "Looks like, I've got only a few options left…Light Heal!" Oshawott glowed and healed up.

He then proceeded and hit Tony with a flurry of attacks, to which the Fighting Type widened his eyes, not prepared for it.

Oshawott ran to the side, "Slit Edge!" Tony cried out in pain as he had his physical defense reduced. Oshawott then ran to the back and used, "Back Slash!" dealing critical damage and finished off with a frontal…'Turn Strike!" Tony was then inflicted with Break.

Oshawott backed off and gritted his teeth, "Grr...I still can't Topple this guy…"

Tepig burst into cheers as he witnessed that marvelous turn of events! "YEAH GO OSHAWOTT!"

Everyone else also burst into louder cheers!

Tony shakily rose from the ground, looking about ready to collapse.

Oshawott got into a defensive stance and Tony slowly spoke, "Not bad Osh. Just what I'd expect from one of the heroes of Pokepark. Nice use of Light Heal and damage recovery…" He then gave another smirk, "…BUT I HAVE ONE TOO!" He once again raised his sword to the sky and yelled, "Galvanic Patch!"

The Riolu glowed brightly and electric sparks traveled around him.

Oshawott grew horrified, "What the hell?!"

Tony replied, "As a bonus, because I used Volt Chaser, it enhanced the power of my damage recovery."

Oshawott cursed under his breath.

Both the powerful swordsmen clashed blades with their auto-attacks and it continued for a minute, before Tony fell back, "You've played a great match Oshawott, but I'm afraid that I have to end this!" Tony swung his sword to his side and used, "Delayed Charge!"

Oshawott ran toward him and kept attacking him with auto-attacks, but the Riolu wouldn't flinch…even a little.

Tony said, "Nice try Osh! I've placed an Aura around me. Although I can't move or attack, for about 10 seconds, I can't be knocked backward."

Oshawott took note of this and backed away.

After ten seconds of immobility, Tony was able to move again.

Tony mentioned, "Although I am unable to move for 10 seconds, the aura around me lasts a bit longer."

Oshawott clashed his blade at Tony and was not able to knock him backward. "That Aura makes your body like steel!"

Tony said, "I know…and also there is something that I am able to do while I have Delayed Charge active…"

Oshawott's eyes widened, "W-what?"

Tony slowly responded with an evil grin, "You'll see…"

Oshawott cried out in panic, "WHAT?!"

Tony cried out, "Cross Charge!" and made a horizontal strike to Oshawott.

Oshawott was knocked down, "Dammit!" But when he tried to get up, he was unable to. "Wh-what? Why can't I get up?!" Oshawott then gasped and replied, "I-I have been inflicted with Topple!" He then looked at Tony, "Y-you have the ability to force Topple?!"

Tony held the blade ready to strike. "Like I said, I will win this battle!"

Tony came in for a series of auto-attacks and Oshawott was helpless to do anything but cry out in pain as he felt one electric strike after another.

Oshawott managed to get back on his feet and slashed at Tony to make him falter.

The crowd cheered extremely loud at Tony's sudden series of attacks while Tepig had a horrified look on his face.

Oshawott slowly got up, but kept a smile on his face, "Not bad Tony…"

Tony got ready to counter Oshawott's attacks.

Oshawott ran towards the Fighting Type and swiftly moved to the back, "Back Slash!"

Oshawott ran back to his own side.

Both competitors were breathing hard, both ready to collapse…they only had one shot at this…

Oshawott warned Tony, "This is it Tony, whoever lands the last Art, wins the whole thing."

Tony nodded in agreement, "May the best swordsmen win."

They both stared each other down, the crowd cheering for the finale…

They both ran to each other and struck each other with some auto-attacks.

They swung their powerful blades at one another and clashed.

"Grr…" Both grunted.

Tony managed to push the clashing blades and gave him-self the opening.

Oshawott's eyes widened in horror as his blade had been pushed away, by the ever stronger Pokemon.

Tony brought down the thunder and yelled, "LUXCALIBER!"

The floor exploded and dust flew everywhere.

The spectators covered their eyes.

Tepig cried out, "OSHAWOTT!"

When the dust cleared…Oshawott…was…

"He's not under the blade...?" Tony said confused.

He looked up to see Oshawott just fine.

Tony had a look of fear in his eyes, "B-but how?"

Oshawott took no additional time and used his brand new Art, "Grrrraahhhhh!" Oshawott cried, he charged up is blade and yelled out, "Stream Edge!" He swung his sword in a cone ranged figure and Tony was dead center of it.

Tony cried out in pain as he was inflicted with Break, and he was knocked backward to the ground.

Tony staggered up, but…he couldn't take it anymore…

Tony said with a weak smile, "I didn't think you had it in you Oshawott…good…battle…" With that, the Riolu fell to the ground with swirls in his eyes.

VICTORY!

Oshawott (LV 06) (510 EXP) – 100 EXP – LEVEL UP! – LEVEL 07

*Music Stop*

The crowd went silent and Oshawott hesitated a bit. His face then turned into pure excitement, "Y-yes…Yes I won!"

Tepig yelled at the top of his lungs, "YEAH OSHAWOTT!"

Everyone then broke out into loud cheers for Oshawott

Oshawott picked Tony up and said with a smile, "You did well out there Tony."

Tony returned the smile, "Thanks Oshawott."

Oshawott and Tony went back to where Tepig was and the crowd left still talking about how amazing that battle was.

*Music: Forest of the Nopon (Night) – Xenoblade Chronicles*

Tepig jumped in joy, "That was a great battle! Good job you two!"

Tony said with a smile, "That was an exhilarating battle! You actually got me Oshawott!"

Oshawott nodded back, "You too Tony, you had me on the ropes for a while there."

Tony replied with pride, "Just what I'd expect from a Pokepark hero!"

Oshawott blushed with embarrassment and Tepig saw that and exclaimed, "Hey don't be embarrassed buddy! I take full pride in my title as a hero of Pokepark and you should too!"

Tony then said, "I like both you and Tepig, can we be friends?"

Oshawott nodded happily in agreement, "Of course you can!"

Tepig added on, "Yeah! The more the merrier!"

Tony jumped and pumped his fist in the air. "Alright! Thanks for being very cool you guys! Also, I will help you out in battles should you need me!"

Tepig's eyes beamed at the Riolu's last remark, "Wow! Really?!"

Oshawott added on, "That's great Tony, we would love to have you help us out!"

Tony nodded with a big smile, "By accepting me as a friend, you now have the ability to Summon Pokemon during battles to be Assist Pokemon!"

Oshawott put up a thinking posture and said, "I'm listening…"

Tony continued, "When you make friends with other Pokemon, they will help you out in battle. If you ever feel like the odds are against you when fighting other Pokemon, just summon me or other friends up and we will stick around for a while to help you achieve victory."

Tepig jumped in and said, "That sounds awesome!"

Tony chuckled a bit at Tepig's outburst, but then explained, "Please keep in mind however that once an Assist Pokemon has been used, you are unable to summon them again until you go back and ask them to assist you and even then, they may not be ready to fight. Oh and the max limit on Assist Pokemon at one time is 10.

Oshawott gave a questioned look and Tepig remarked, "That sounds awfully complicated…"

Tony chuckled, "I know, but that's how it works."

Oshawott contemplated for a moment and replied, "I guess that makes sense, we have to test it out in more fights."

"Anyway, thank you for helping me train my sword. I feel a lot stronger now and ready to take on other challengers!" Tony exclaimed with glee while raising his sword up high.

Three small stars raised

"I'm glad everything worked out." Oshawott said.

Tepig added on, "Looks like we've done our job Osh."

Four small hearts raised

Tony finished with, "I'll see you around, and don't forget to call me in battle when you need to alright?"

Reward: 400 EXP; 250 Poke; Bonus: Help in battles

Oshawott (LV 07) (610 EXP) – 400 EXP - LEVEL UP! – LEVEL 08

Tepig (LV 06) (510 EXP) – 400 EXP - LEVEL UP! – LEVEL 07

Oshawot looked up to the sky, "Wow guys, look up there."

Tony and Tepig turned their heads towards the sky and they were awe-struck.

What they saw up there was a beautiful night sky with some streams of light and stars align in the sky.

Tepig could only mutter, "Wow…that's a sight to behold…"

Tony asked Oshawott, "Did our battle really take that long?"

Oshawott replied, "Apparently." He then turned to Tepig and noted him, "We should probably head back to Seasong Beach." Tepig nodded in agreement.

They turned to head back to the Cove Area, but then turned their heads to their new friend and called out while waving, in unison, "Bye Tony!"

Tony smiled and waved back, "Bye guys! See you around!"

The Party exited the Battle Ring and called Drifblim over to them.

The Blimp Pokemon came over and greeted them, still a little concerned for Oshawott to which she asked him, "Hey Oshawott…are you feeling better from yesterday? That remark from Snivy must have hurt."

Oshawott gave a small yet reassuring smile and replied, "Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just exploring Pokepark on a new day."

Drifblim returned the nice smile, "That's nice to hear. So now, where do you two want to go in this glorious night?"

"Seasong Beach." Oshawott and Tepig said together.

The Dual Type picked up the Otter and the Pig and flew through the night sky, back to the Cove Area. On the way, they saw some Flying Type Pokemon soar through the air, enjoying their flight. Oshawott and Tepig were smiling, enjoying the beautiful night scenery. Not before long, they arrived at their destination.

*Music Stop*

They both hopped off Drifblim and walked over to the shore of the ocean, looking at some Pokemon still playing under darkness. They both arrived at the sandy shore and stared up into the sky, seeing the beautiful moon's light gleam over the night time ocean.

*Music: Colony 9 (Night) – Xenoblade Chronicles*

Tepig started to speak, "The moon looks beautiful tonight eh Oshawott?"

Oshawott replied, "Yeah…it really does."

Tepig looked down in hesitation wanting to ask something.

Oshawott looked at his teammate in curiosity and concern.

- Heart-to-Heart: Yesterday's Actions -

Oshawott asked Tepig, "Hey Tepig…is something up?"

Tepig was still a bit hesitant to say anything, but then finally spoke, "Hey Oshawott…may I ask you something."

Oshawott replied, "Yeah sure! What's on your mind?"

Tepig hesitantly said, "About yesterday…I heard a brief summary of it…but I did not actually see it.

Oshawott nodded, "Right, you were training in the Crag Area so you didn't see it…

The Otter continued to listen to Tepig.

Tepig spoke, "I know I said that I'd do the same if Snivy ever mentioned my parents if they were dead, but…looking back on it…is that really the right thing?"

Oshawott took Tepig's answer into consideration, "I don't blame you for second guessing your-self, you can't exactly tell what actions are necessary unless you experience it first-hand.

Tepig looked at Oshawott with worried eyes and asked him, "Oshawott, you yelled at Snivy, called her a bunch of bad names, and attacked her. Do you think that you did the right thing?

Oshawott gave his Fire Type friend a questioned look and replied, "I can see why you ask that question and I will say this."

- "It was all justified."

- "Attacking her was a slight overreaction."

Four small hearts raised

Tepig was slightly surprised at Oshawott's answer. From what he heard, he didn't think that Oshawott would admit that one of his actions was wrong.

Oshawott chuckled slightly at Tepig's surprised face and said, "I admit that attacked her out of anger, so my actions there, was slightly unjust, but that's all."

Tepig said, "Must have been hard to hear say something about your mom and dad huh?"

Oshawott stared out to the ocean and said, "Yeah…it was…"

Tepig then asked, "Hey…um…Osh…may I ask you something?"

Oshawott turned himself back to Tepig. "Yeah sure what's up?"

The Fire Pig hesitated slightly and fidgeted. "I know what the answer might be…but…will you ever forgive Snivy? I mean, she is my friend too…"

Oshawott conceited that Tepig did have a point, he also was her friend.

Oshawott responded…

- "She will have to make the extra effort."

- "I don't think so."

Four small hearts lowered

Tepig looked down, "I see, so you won't forgive her then…"

Oshawott further explained to him, "Sorry Tepig, but she really hurt me a lot…I might forgive her or I may not, but right now, she definitely will not be getting my forgiveness. I'm still pretty pissed off at her so I just want to stay away from her for now…you understand?"

Tepig felt slightly reassured at that last remark and he smiled slightly, "Right, I see your point of view."

Oshawott nodded, "I'm OK Tepig…don't worry about me."

Tepig tried not to, but he still felt pretty worried about his Otter friend, but he smiled and said, "OK."

Oshawott said with his cheery smile, "I will say though…I feel a lot better after talking to you about this."

Tepig smiled brightly at this, "Thanks Oshawott, I really means a lot to me to hear you say that, no one really thinks that I'm a good counselor."

Oshawott laughed, "Are you kidding?! You're one of the best! If I ever have problems that I want to share, I'll be sure to share it with you."

One big heart raised

Tepig laughed back, "I'll be the best counselor in the world and I will always have your back my Water Type friend!"

- Net (Gain/Loss) –

After the Party's little conversation, they both decided to call it quits for the night.

Oshawott yawned loudly, "We should probably head off for the night Tepig."

Tepig yawned as well. "Alright, I'll see you tomorrow bud." Tepig walked back to Drifblim and headed back to the Crag Area.

Oshawott headed back into his house and up to his room.

The Otter stared out to sea once more and smiled as he wished to see his Grandfather again. "I will find you Grandfather, and we will feel like a family again." Oshawott yawned once more as he crawled into bed and fell fast asleep with his mind still on his Grandfather."

*SHIFTING SCENES – SNIVY'S PARTY*

Snivy's Party walked around Seasong Beach. Pikachu caught eye of Oshawott and Tepig before they went to bed. He wanted to tell Snivy that he saw them a second ago, but he kept silent knowing that he probably doesn't want to see Snivy right now.

"Pikachu, what are you looking at?" Snivy asked.

Pikachu turned to her quickly in surprise and quickly responded, "Oh! Nothing!"

Snivy yawned, "We should probably get back home… it's already dark…"

Pikachu nodded and they called Drifblim. Snivy went back to the Arbor Area and Pikachu went back to Cove Town where he and Piplup rented a hotel.

The cool night breeze blew on the ocean waters as another day in Pokepark has come to a close.


Justin: DONE!

Oshawott: 3000 words? You didn't take my advice on cutting down on words per chapter did you?

Justin: What can I say? I'm on a roll! Say where's Tepig?

Oshawott: He's in front of the very cold fan.

Justin: *Sees Tepig with a wind-blown face* *Shrugs*

Oshawott: Yeah…that's my buddy.

Justin: Anyway, I want to credit: ash the pokevenger for his OC

Tony: Without him, I would never have existed!

Justin: Yeah, you owe him for creating you.

Oshawott: Hey Justin, shouldn't we see the Affinity Charts?

Justin: Right! BRING IT UP!

- Heartwarming -

Tepig hesitantly said, "About yesterday…I heard a brief summary of it…but I did not actually see it.

Oshawott nodded, "Right, you were training in the Crag Area so you didn't see it…

The Otter continued to listen to Tepig.

Tepig spoke, "I know I said that I'd do the same if Snivy ever mentioned my parents if they were dead, but…looking back on it…is that really the right thing?"

Tepig said, "Must have been hard to hear say something about your mom and dad huh?"

Oshawott stared out to the ocean and said, "Yeah…it was…"

Tepig then asked, "Hey…um…Osh…may I ask you something?"

Oshawott turned himself back to Tepig. "Yeah sure what's up?"

The Fire Pig hesitated slightly and fidgeted. "I know what the answer might be…but…will you ever forgive Snivy? I mean, she is my friend too…"

Oshawott conceited that Tepig did have a point, he also was her friend.

Oshawott responded…

- "She will have to make the extra effort."

- "I don't think so."

Four small hearts raised

Tepig was really surprised that Oshawott would respond with that answer, "Really Oshawott? I figured that you would never want to be friends with her again."

Oshawott looked out to sea and replied, "Have you ever heard the expression no man is an island?"

Tepig replied, "Yes I have, but what's that got to do with this?"

"A person or in this case, pokemon can't get through life without other pokemon. I will give her a chance at redemption, but it will be very difficult and she doesn't deserve my forgiveness at the moment." Oshawott explained.

Tepig smiled, "Wow…you're really open-minded."

The Water Type turned back to the Fire Type, "If you understand how the world functions, then you can make it through life."

Tepig said, "Wow."

Oshawott then said, "Hey Tepig, I just want to say…Thank you for having this talk with me, you are a very good counselor.

Tepig was very flattered that that and replied, "Wow Oshawott…thanks for the praise. No one thinks of me as a counselor, with my temper and all.

Oshawott smiled brightly, "No problem bud, and say…what about your parents?"

Tepig replied, "They are actually on a trip outside of Pokepark, they're still alive, they send me lots of text messages, but I don't know where they are."

Oshawott returned, "Huh. I hope to meet them when we adventure. You have my back right?"

One big heart raised

Tepig jumped with joy and said, "Do you even need to ask? Of course I do!"


- Heartbreaking -

Tepig hesitantly said, "About yesterday…I heard a brief summary of it…but I did not actually see it.

Oshawott nodded, "Right, you were training in the Crag Area so you didn't see it…

The Otter continued to listen to Tepig.

Tepig spoke, "I know I said that I'd do the same if Snivy ever mentioned my parents if they were dead, but…looking back on it…is that really the right thing?"

Oshawott gave his Fire Type friend a questioned look and replied, "I can see why you ask that question and I will say this."

- "It was all justified."

- "Attacking her was a slight overreaction."

Four small hearts lowered

Tepig looked sad and worried at his friend.

Oshawott quickly corrected himself and said, "Well actually…ok, I admit that attacking her was slightly unjust, but that's all I'm going to admit to."

Tepig still had a worried look, but managed a small smile.

Tepig then asked, "So Oshawott, you said that your parents have passed away right?"

Oshawott replied, "Yeah…"

Tepig pointed out, "You never actually told me how it happened."

Oshawott had a look of notice, "Oh yeah, I never did, did I?"

Tepig asked with a smile, "Would you mind sharing what happened?"

Oshawott contemplated with his question before finally saying…

- "I'll tell you."

- "I'd…rather not talk about it…"

Four small hearts lowered

"I don't exactly feel like talking about them after what just happened…I'm sorry…"

Tepig looked a bit sad, but understood, "No, you're right. I wouldn't want to talk about them either if I was in your shoes.

Oshawott gave a weak smile, "I promise I'll tell you what happened later when the time is right, but now is just not it."

Tepig smiled back, "Alright then!"

Oshawott said, "Hey Tepig…thanks for this little conversation."

Tepig nodded back and responded, "Anytime Oshawott, I will always have your back."

One big heart raised


- Net (Loss/Gain) -

Tepig hesitantly said, "About yesterday…I heard a brief summary of it…but I did not actually see it.

Oshawott nodded, "Right, you were training in the Crag Area so you didn't see it…

Tepig then asked, "So Oshawott, you said that your parents have passed away right?"

Oshawott replied, "Yeah…"

Tepig pointed out, "You never actually told me how it happened."

Oshawott had a look of notice, "Oh yeah, I never did, did I?"

Tepig asked with a smile, "Would you mind sharing what happened?"

Oshawott contemplated with his question before finally saying…

- "I'll tell you."

- "I'd…rather not talk about it…"

Four small hearts raised

Tepig smiled, "Alright then."

Oshawott then replied, "But not now."

Tepig gave a confused look, "Huh?"

Oshawott explained, "After what just happened, I don't feel comfortable talking about then right now…if you understand…"

Tepig was slightly disappointed, but he found Oshawott's logic valid, so he smiled and nodded. "Understandable."

"I promise to tell you when the time is right." Oshawott noted.

Tepig nodded and said, "I'll be looking forward to it."

They were about to leave, but wanted to tell Tepig something quickly.

"Hey Tepig, thank you for talking with me and for always having my back." Oshawott said.

One big heart raised

Tepig returned a bright smile, "No problem Oshawott, anytime."


Justin: And that's just about it! Sorry for not getting this chapter out too quickly.

Oshawott: What happened?

Justin: Doing Heart-to-Hearts is not easy work.

Tepig: Well, at least the chapter seems good.

Justin: Yeah, I guess so.

Oshawott: This chapter seems like a lot of words.

Tepig: Try to cut it down.

Justin: Alright, I'll try, but it's impossible with Heart-to-Hearts.

Justin: Well that's that! KEEP SENDING IN YOUR OC'S!

All: STAY FROSTY! ;D
