.:This is the Right Path:.

[Deidara]

'This path I've chosen...it's the path I must walk in order to achieve my goals...' Kentaro thought to himself. He had gotten past the gate that separated the lab from the wilderness. He felt that joining Team Diamond would be the greatest possible choice. His long hair swayed with every step he took and as he got to the lab doors, he tied it into a ponytail as he wanted to look presentable and not like a nice guy. Now what could he expect from the Team he was about to join? He knew they were considered 'evil' but what else?

The doors to the lab seemed to be automatic, for they opened up almost immediately to reveal the snarling features of a Manectric and Luxray. Neither of the two electric types liked intruders, and would even growl like this if it was another member that was appearing. Ultimately, they only were even remotely kind to their master, the leader of the organization.

'<What do you want, human!>'

[/color] the Manectric sneered, her voice most definately female. '<Why do you enter this lab... speak up or I will attack!>'

'<Yes, why do you?>'[/color] the Luxray growled loudly, his fur bristling as electricity sparked in it. '<Why do you come here?>'[/color]

Other than the two electric types, the dim lab didn't seem to be populated by anyone else living. A light flickered overhead, but that was it, however an elevator stood off against a back wall, its up and down arrows flickering innocently.[/center][/size]

Kentaro's eyes scanned the room and then glanced at the two electric types. He didn't really like electric types very much. They were out of his element and he found them very dislike able. These two only proved his point. "I'm here to officially become a member of Team Diamond and to gain my starter pokemon. he replied rather coldly as he stepped inside the lab.

[Ayra Calaenlen]

The Manectric seemed to laugh. '<Ha! It'll be interesting to see what our master thinks of that!>' she sneered, her crimson eyes flashing.

'<Yes, interesting indeed... he's right up that elevator, why don't you go and see him instead of talking to us?>'

[/color] the Luxray nodded, his own eyes seeming to flash as his fur continued to crackle with electricity.

These two Pokemon were apparently the guard Pokemon of the lab, and really, they were well suited for it, especially with how dark it was. They could prowl through the shadows and suddenly strike with powerful volts of electricity without warning, a formidable stealth attack.[/center][/size]

[Deidara]

'These two are up to something...' Kentaro thought to himeself, looking at the two electric pokemon. "Now why should I do something that would get on a higher up's bad side?" he asked the Luxray sarcastically. He loosely folded his arms and figured that the safest bet was to just stay there and wait. "Besides, I'm not going to be tricked by two electric type pokemon..." Kentaro mumbled, emphasizing the word electric .

[Ayra Calaenlen]

^{'<Ah, don't like us much then do you?>' the Manectric looked rather amused, her crimson eyes shining. '<Well, you'd better watch what you say, and where your loyalties lie, you see, the last person to betray Team Diamond still hasn't woken up and it's been what, seven months now?>'}

[/color]

'<Yes, it has Sanga... I must really congratulate you again on such an outstanding electric attack, got him right in the chest you did... surprised me that it didn't kill him, merely put him in a coma...>' The Luxray nodded his head smoothly, twitching his tail.

'<I try, but, I didn't want to murder him. If Kanaye wants someone killed he does it himself, doesn't believe in having Pokemon kill a human... just as well, no need for our race to have the same reputation the Gyarados have...>'

The Luxray merely nodded and turned to look at the elevator. '<Hm, Kanaye still hasn't come down... perhaps he's taking people upstairs now. If you go with us you're pretty much guaranteed safe passage...>'[/center][/sup]

[Deidara]

"I never said I would betray anyone or Team Diamond itself. Besides, how can I betray something that I'm not even officially part of?" Kentaro replied not really paying any mind to the Luxray and Manectric's threats. He turned to the Luxray, hearing the 'If you go with us you're pretty much guaranteed safe passage...' "I'll only go if you lead..." was Kentaro's answer.

[Ayra Calaenlen]

^{The Manetric and Luxray exchanged glanced. '<Very well...>' the Manetric said smoothly. '<Come on Rakku... Misutai's still down here she can keep an eye on things>'}

[/color] She trotted over to the elevator and reared up on her hind legs, hitting one of the buttons with her forepaw.

'<Yes, bit more gentle than us but at least that Ninetales gets the job done...>'[/color] Rakku replied simply, slipping into the elevator after Sanga. They both sat down on the floor inside, though the Luxray placed a paw in the path of the doors to prevent them from closing before Kentaro could get on.[/center][/sup]

[Deidara]

'At least they're more pleasant now...' Kentaro thought to himself, hearing the two pokemon chatter. Not that he liked them... They just seemed in a better mood than before... At least in his mind. He followed the two electric pokemon into the elevator after deciding he wasn't going to be deceived and that it was the real deal. After all, he didn't want to get in trouble when he was in somebody else's territory. 'Let's hope nothing bad happens from this...'
