Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.
Elliana
Elle’s arms were shaking with the effort it took to continue pulling herself up the huge tree root, though she didn’t feel it. The scrap of cloth around her neck had long since dried and evaporated. It was hot, so hot; the lava, now below her, gave off an oppressive heat that pressed in...
Karui hesitated a moment before taking the seat to the right of Asahi. She kicked her sister lightly under the table, as if to say don’t give too much away, before ordering a skewered fish. One of the people behind the bar took a skewer from a fryer and handed it to her, and the medical nin...
Karui’s poker face almost slipped into a laugh for a moment as Asahi made her speech. As if their genes would be worth more than a couple rotten figs. From where she was hidden in the bushes, making any sort of noise to alert the enemy would not have been smart. She silently drew her khopesh...
When Akeru’s acceptance letter and uniform came in the mail at precisely 1:34 in the morning, she was still awake, kept so only by the long-lasting adrenaline rush that comes from excited anticipation. And maybe just a smidge of caffeine. Just a little. She had skimmed the letter just enough to...
Elliana
Apparently Elle’s head start hadn’t lasted as long as she had hoped as the boy who had shot arrows into the stampede came galloping up a shallower slope of a path to and then past where she was. She sent a glare at his back with a “I don’t need advice from a— ……Holy fucking shit.” Her...
Sleipnir snorted, shying away from the next rock Elle tried to nudge him onto. She had noticed his increasing anxiety, but had no idea what could be causing it. Maybe it was the constant groaning and crunching of the mountain and people, horses, and dragons alike ran across it. It had gotten...
Kiba
50-Meter Dash:
Kiba didn’t run the 50 meters; she flew them. Her wings allowed her to fly at over 60 miles per hour, which had her coming in at only 1.6 seconds. When the boy who transformed into several jets shot past, Kiba clamped her ears down tight against her skull at the sonic boom...
Elliana
“Asshole,” Elle muttered darkly as she saw arrows start raining down onto the mad dash of horses. The people dying—well, that was their choice, and they died for their dream. But the animals that were being taken down because of their riders’ incompetence and the arrogant selfishness of...
Class B
“Hm?” Yakima turned to face the boy who had approached her, eyes flicking momentarily to the curly block font above his head only she could see. His username’s “PurplePrankster,” huh. Doesn’t seem like a jerk right off the bat. Although the flattery is a little unsettling. A few moments...
Kiba followed the rest of the class outside and listened as other students did the ball throw, wincing slightly as a guy’s arms turned into jet planes with all the sound that came with it. She was a little surprised by their teacher’s appearance, but pleasantly so, as that was another person...
Elle
As the forefront of the pack of horses became even harder to move in, Elle slowly began to steer Sleipnir towards the side of the mountain, rather than where she was in the middle of the path. There were two boys in the front but not too far forward that were working in tandem to drive...
Elle
Elliana had left her family’s farm a week before, riding eight hours a day to make it to the exam site from the outskirts of the country. For the last two days, she’d been camped out at a nearby stand of woods, allowing her faithful steed, named Sleipnir after Odin’s horse in mythology of...
Karui grit her teeth, but landed lightly at the base of a tree. Asahi was right—she shouldn’t be in the thick of the fight, but that didn’t make her any less intent on protecting her sister’s secret. She took the opportunity to cover half her face in chakra to heal the burns and the slash in her...
Akeru watched the pink girl go, wondering if it was her fault for being weird, then realized she had just gone to see another student who she seemed to know from before. She shrugged and looked away, growing restless as goosebumps rose on her arms and legs. Ryo had passed her on the monkey bars...
