Chapter 4: Unova

Skyla: Right, it's gonna be a short intro this time, 'cuz I really wanna get the story started.

Red: The intros suck, anyways.

Skyla: Hey! You better watch it, or else I'll change your shipping to Blue, not Yellow!

Red: No thanks, I'd rather stick with Yellow.

Skyla: Aha! So you do have a crush on her!

Red: Huh?

Skyla: Well, you don't wanna be with Blue, so...

Red: *Blush* W-wait! I just... Argh, forget it! How'd you get to be so good at this?

Skyla: Aren't you glad no one else is here?

Red: I am VERY glad!!!

Skyla: BUT I HAD A CAMERA!!!! MWAHAHAHA!

Red: What? Give me that!

Skyla: Okay, folks, since I'm about run for my life, I guess I had better start the story. ACTION!!!

The scream had belonged to Platinum, but she was screaming of delight instead of horror, for the room they had just stepped in was like no other.

The wallpaper was electric blue-and-white striped, with a light pink ceiling and fluorescent lighting. The floor was covered with hard wood panels, dark orange. A large bed with a yellow bedspread and dark blue pillow was tucked into the farthest corner of the room. A white desk with a sky-blue laptop on top sat next to the bed.

What really caught everyone's attention were the books. 3 massive bookshelves lined the walls, filled with paperbacks and hardcovers, fiction and nonfiction. A red camera rested on the very top of the middle bookshelf. "Do you guys like it?" Skyla asked. "I don't have a roommate, because I got here late."

All the girls were oohing and aahing at the decoration. After about five minutes, they turned and noticed all the boys crowded near the doorway. "What's wrong?" Sapphire asked them. "Boys aren't allowed in the girls' dormitories, remember?" Ruby said uncomfortably.

"Don't worry, my room is straight across from Sky's," Travis said. "We can head over there and Facetime each other." The relieved boys quickly agreed, and they exited the room. The girls decide to use this time to gossip. And of course, when we say "girls", we only mean Blue.

"So Skyla, how long have you and Travis been best friends?" Blue asked slyly. "Since we were seven," Skyla replied cheerfully, unaware of the danger in her path. "We're both from the same place, Griffith Kingdom."

"You mean an actual kingdom?" Yellow gasped. "With a king and queen?" Platz added excitedly. "There's also a prince my age, but he hardly ever comes out," Skyla said. "Oh, and our national pokèmon is a Braviary, so that's why I have a Rufflet and Travis has a Braviary charm."

As Blue opened her mouth to ask more questions, the laptop rang. "That must be the boys!" Skyla cried, and they raced to answer the call. All seven of the boys' faces were crowded around the screen.

"So let's review," Skyla announced. "There's a hollow wall inside the school, and no one knows why. That's why we're gonna figure it out." "That's pretty much it," Dia agreed. "First step is to find any legends, stories, or myths surrounding the school and the wall," White concluded.

"I can easily do that with all my books here," Skyla volunteered. "We can all head down to the computer lab tomorrow," Green decided. "But right now you guys had better go back to your rooms. It's nearly curfew," Travis added.
