Solo gripped her shoulder. "No time, not now! We have to figure out a plan!" Meanwhile... Amber was beating at the sides of the cage with her fists. Jason was trying to find a latch or a way out. It seemed hopeless. "Well this just tops the fucking cake, doesn't it?" she shouted. Jason put a hand on her shoulder. "Calm down. We need to think about this rationally." "How can we think about this rationally? What rational explaination is there to use us as BAIT?" "Not much, I agree," he sighed. "But we do need to calm down. There has to be some way out." Amber slumped down onto the floor, and looked at Jason. "You're right. But what can we do? They took all of our pokemon away from us." TBC... Bah. Everyone can write but me! ^_~
