Before Toshi could head home, a shadow was flying at him.

"Oaf!"

Toshi opened his eyes and stared in a pair of blue-violet eyes. He found his nose touching with another one.

"Wha- Yumi!"

Yumi jumped up and landed softly on her feet.

"Sorry, my wing wasn't fully recovered! So sorry, Toshi!"

"It's fine. You freaked me out when you crash into me like that."

Yumi checked Toshi for any injuries.

"Hope I didn't hurt you..." she wailed.

"I'm fine, really!" Toshi added, "But you nearly shoved me too close to the river."

"Sorry," Yumi wailed, "I didn't know the river just now."

Toshi got up to his feet.

"I got to learn to swim one of these days," he sighed.

He looked down at the river and Yumi sat by him. He was feeling a little funny inside. Is he falling in love? He only met her a few days ago, this shouldn't be happening so soon. He pushed his thoughts aside and looked at the river. The fish were swimming in it. Yumi looked at a koi that was passing through.

"This is a pretty river," she said, "I see some koi swimming around in there."

"They're pretty rare," Toshi replied, "I usually see them."

He seemed to get a little notice from the look in her eye.


Nairi on the other hand was with Flow training. Diana had to keep Vivian put and not go near the Meouth girl. Flow was more willing to try out the training Kana taught her of being blind to use for her advantage. Nairi leaped and Flow dodges her attack.

"Not bad," Diana called out.

Vivian flew up to get a better view from above. Nairi would hope she won't cause trouble. Flow has her scent.

"Don't think you'll be safe up there," she called to Vivian.

The Wingull girl shrugged.

"Yeah, like that will happen," she taunted.

"That's it! I've had it!" Flow hissed, "I'm coming up there and give you a few pointers."

Vivian just sat there. Flow was furious and started climbing up after her.

"Whoa! Flow, calm down!" Diana barked.

Vivian flew off to a different tree.

"Well that isn't fair.." Flow growled.

"What's the matter, am I too fast for you?" Vivian taunted.

"Well, wait till I get you.." Flow spat, "and you'll be eating those words!"

"Come at me, sassy cat," Vivian taunted again, "I'm not scared of you."

"This isn't going to end well..." Diana whimpered.

Flow kept climbing up until she got Vivian by her wings.

"Now I got you smarty!" Flow hissed.

"Let go!" Vivian cried.

"This is getting ugly.." Diana added, "I better get Mandy."

Vivian tried to get free, but Flow's grip was too tight. They fell and landed in a bush. They started fighting. Mandy came in time.

"Not again.." the Murkrow groaned.

She and Lloyd went over to help.

"Fish-breath!" Vivian squawked.

"You eat fish too!" Flow spat.

"Okay, knock it off you two!" Lloyd yowled.

"That's enough!" Mandy yelled, "Both of you!"

Being the oldest of the group, Mandy had to separate Flow and Vivian. Lloyd pulled back Vivian while Mya, Flow's mother pulled her back.

"Let me at her!" Flow yowled.

"Flow, stop it!" Mya scolded, "These fights are starting to get ridiculous!"

"Viv, you need to stop those fights," Mandy also scolded to her sister, "There's one thing I don't like is you and Flow fight over stupid reasons!"


Toshi was still spending time with Yumi, watching the fish swim by in the river. Nairi and Flow were calmed down after a while and started to spy on Toshi.

"That's nuts!" Nairi wailed, "How can Toshi have a soft spot for Yumi? You got to be kidding me!"

"Not kidding, Nairi," Flow added, "He really does."

"I think you need your ears checked..." Nairi groaned.

Flow didn't reply to that. At least she knows why Nairi would never lie.

'I could be sure if she could tell me honestly,' Nairi thought.

Only time will tell for Nairi. She went home with Flow. She didn't know that Rika had to have some training in as well. Flow really shouldn't let the teasing Vivian does get to her. Nairi and Flow went to bed and thought they could help one another to prevent another fight in the future.
