-Present day-

Vincent finally came to notice Veruka sitting right beside him "Oh, hi Veruka, How's Cinder doing?"

"He's OK, but still he got into troubles this morning"

"Troubles? Is he OK? What happened to him?" Asked Cotton concerned about him.

"Hes fine, it was just Senny again, he tends to be too honest sometimes" After hearing this, Cotton let out a small sigh in relief.

"Oh come on, its not Cinder's fault, she's got a bad temper" Vincent added.

"Hey! I'm right over here!" Came the mentioned voice.

"Oh! Hehe... Well, you really could do something about it" This was more than Senny could take, she started charging in Vincent's direction.

"Senny!!!" Scolded her Veruka, Senny came to a stop "Knock it off, he's right, you must really learn to behave"

"You're just defending Cinder, isn't it?" She snapped angrily.

"No, I'm saying this because of what you did to Scratch, Sibelius, Danny and almost anyone that comes to disagree with you" This words seem to sting her like a dart in her back.

Senny crossed her arms "They had it deserved" She said as she turned her head away, but she knew the battle was lost, she turned on her back and started walking away indignantly.

After making sure she was not coming back, the silence was broken "You know, maybe you were too harsh with her" Said Cotton "Shes going trough a difficult age"

"*Sigh* I know, and she may be right, maybe I did was defending Cinder" Regret could be heard on Veruka's voice.

After a brief silence, Vincent finally spoke "Maybe you did, but you also stated at a fact" He seemed serious "Still, Cotton's right, and we shouldn't be so hard with a kid, we should apologize to her"

Both Veruka and Cotton nodded, Vincent once again put an arm around the Lopunny. Not long after that a certain female Lucario showed up.

"Hello guys! I just came to find Senny on my way here, she was really..." Lily started, but after seeing the regret on Veruka's face she stopped, noticing they might have already know.

After lowering her head, Veruka finally spoke "I know, I'll talk to her later"

"Will you need some help with that?"

"No, it won't be needed"

"I'm going with you anyway" Said Cotton.

"I guess I'm in it too" Lily added.

"Well, thank you girls"

"Hey! Count me in too!" Cried Vincent.

"You didn't said anything"

"But I was the one who suggested that in first place!"

"OK, you can come too, geez"

"Yay" The Lucario cheered almost childlike, Veruka sunk her face on her palm.

Lily let out a giggle, those two had been just the same ever since she met them; not even their "Break up" seemed to have affected their friendship.

"Oh, and by the way, how is it going?" Lily asked turning to Vincent and Cottons direction, Vincent leaned his head in confusion "The neutralizing"

"Oh, that, hehe" Vincent smiled sheepishly "Well, I'd say it went out smoothly, a lot better than the previous attempts"

-About... 7 months ago-

Veruka, Lily and Saria had spent a rather enjoyable afternoon, except for one reason: The previously perfect, sunny day had become into a heavy, rainy day. As they made their way back they heard some sobs in the distance, both Veruka and Saria knew the source of them. As they approached they came to find a shiny pink Lopunny drowning in tears sitting behind a tree. Saria was the first one to speak.

"Cotton... What happened?" The Leafeon asked her friend.

Cotton spoke between sobs with a weak voice "*Sob* It's Napoleon! *Sob* Again! *Sob*"

"You found him again with someone else?" Saria asked her, Cotton just nodded.

"But I thought you two weren't together anymore" Said Veruka.

"*Sob* I know, but *Sob* It still hurts to see him" Cotton let out a whimper.

"But why are you still into him, even you said it, hes a jerk"

"Yeah, you're such a nice girl, you can always find someone better" Lily added, but Cotton broke into tears even harder.

"Its not just that *Sob* I cant!" Everyone shook their heads in confusion "*Sob* I just can't find the right guy, It wouldn't be for real, I have this stupid curse of the Cute Charm!" Anger was beginning to rise in Cottont voice.

Cotton sunk her head in her arms, her ears covering her as a sign of "Leave me alone", which the three of them quickly understood, what they didn't know was that Lily had an idea in mind.

-That night-

Everyone had gone to sleep, except for Veruka, sitting next to a Thyplosion with a Cyndaquil in arms, and Lily, who was making sure everyone was asleep before making her plan work. She carefully approached the slumbering Lopunny and telepathically gave her a message.

"Meet me at the lake tomorrow morning"

-Next morning-

Cotton had woken up with a doubt in mind, she wasn't sure, but she could swear a light purple Lucario had talked to her in her sleep; now that she thought about it, she knew that Lucario, and knew of her psychic abilities, so she decided to follow the voice's directions. Without previous advise she went to the nearby lake, just to overheard the conversation of two Lucarios.

"Again why do I have to do this?" Said the male.

"Well, Rupert is still asleep, We're trying to avoid Napoleon and Ross is already with Saria, so that only leaves you" Said the female.

"But are you sure this is gonna work?"

"I can't tell that for sure, but I hope so"

"If you say so"

"Are you implying something?"

"Maybe..."

"Why you!!!" Lily hurried at him angrily, but suddenly, she tripped on her own feet, falling right on his chest "OWch!" She cried in pain.

"Woah! Are you OK?" Vincent said extending his paw at her.

She accepted his paw and Vincent helped lift her "I think so"

"(Awww, they look so cute)" Thought Cotton seeing this scene.

Lily was back on her feet, and turned her head in surprise towards Cotton's direction.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't meant to disturb you two"

"What do you mean?" Asked Vincent, but then he came to notice something: they were still holding paws.

Lily's face turned pink "This is not what it looks like!"

"What are you talking about?" Asked Vincent with a puzzled face as he released Lily's paw.

"N-Nothing"

"Um, you wanted to meet me here?" Asked Cotton.

"Yes, I think I've found a solution to your problem"

"What problem?"

"Um, Vincent, would you mind leaving us for a minute?"

"Whatever" Said Vincent as he walked away.

After making sure Vincent was out of hearing range, Lily decided to speak "Yesterday, you told us about your break up-"

"I don't want to talk about it" Cotton turned her face away, trying to hide a deep remorse.

"Well, I think you said you didn't like your Cute Charm ability"

"Uhm... sort of"

"Huh?"

"I mean, my kind is supposed to be used to it, even enjoy it, but I think otherwise" She said as she started playing around with her long ears "It has been more of a problem than a virtue, not only it made me doubt about my previous relationship with Napoleon, but also, now that I know the range of it, I'm afraid to fall in love with someone else and not knowing if it's for real or just my ability... and... just end up hurting us both" She ended up struggling not to fall into tears.

"I see... The I might be able to help you"

"What do you mean?"

"Well... Please wait a second" Said Lily "Vincent!" She called him.

"Coming!" Came Vincent's voice.

"I haven't done this before, but..." Lily started with determination in her voice "I'm going to try my best and neutralize your Cute Charm ability"

"Really? Can you really do that?" Cotton asked her both grateful and excited.

"I can't tell that for sure, but my Psychic and Aura abilities are different than many other Lucario's, and I have done a few things that many considered impossible, so I hope I can do this" By the time Lily finished saying this, Cotton's face was beaming.

Vincent finally appeared in front of them "And I...*Pant* I'm going to be the test subject *Pant*" Said the Lucario out of breath.

"Just how far did you went?" Asked Lily.

The male Lucario took a deep breath "I'm not sure, I used Extremespeed, these ears of mine have better range than expected" Said Vincent grabbing his ears, Lily sunk her head.

"Well, first of all, to be able to neutralize an ability first I need to know the magnitude"

"Huh?" Said Cotton and Vincent in unison.

"I need to know how powerful your ability is"

"Oh, about that... I don't think it's a good idea"

"Why?" Asked Lily.

"It already happened once" Confessed Cotton embarrassed.

"Oh! Come on! It went off a long time ago, it only lasted... a couple of hours?" Vincent scratched his chin.

"Please? Just once" Pleaded Lily.

Cotton finally accepted, not feeling very confident she got near Vincent and put an arm around him. Almost instantly, Vincent's expression changed to something she hadn't seen before... Or had she? maybe she had seen it once; He had a goofy smile and was blushing slightly trough a puppy-stare look at Cotton.

"See? And I only touched him, it's been like this since I left Napoleon, almost like a curse" Suddenly, clouds began to partially form.

"Aww, please don't be like that, you still have me" Said the goofy Lucario.

"You better..." Started Cotton.

"I know" Lily's eyes began to glow, and Vincent was pulled away violently until he hit a rock.

"Ouch!" Complained Vincent rubbing his head.

"Sorry! Pain helps getting rid of the effect earlier" Lily's eyes began glowing once more, Vincent snapped out of the effect.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble, maybe it won't be possible"

"What are you talking about? I said I was gonna help you out and I'm not taking back my word" Lily said proudly "But I'm going to ask you your full willpower in order to realize this" Cotton nodded in determination "OK, Test Number One Commencing" Lily's eyes began flashing blue and purple...

-Present Day-

"Yup, I think, this time, you nailed it right" As Vincent finished talking, a proud smile, and a light blush, had formed on Lily's face.

OK, It seems I had you about 10 chapters believing those two were together right? (I'm so evil *Evil Laugh*)
Now you know the reason, and... well, it also seems that Lily was too obvious, since many of you guessed right, she feels something for Vincent, but he's currently unaware (Poor Lily), but as you can see, she's more powerful than it seems
Sorry for the delay this time, I had it done and was going to upload, but I had no internet acces :(
As always, thanks to everyone who read so far, you've been really... patient? since this hasn't had a single battle and...could be dull.

ok, I think your plot line and ideas are REALLY excellent, but I honestly can't understand the first part of this chapter because of all the grammar and spelling mistakes. I know you are probably typing really fast and don't notice the mistakes, and I not trying to hate or anything, but PLEASE, just reread your stories after you finish writing them, you will probably notice alot of mistakes and it will help your readers out ALOT. Thank you so much, I think you have a really good story, and I love how you've twisted up all of the characters' romances. Please continue to write, just look over it a little when you're done before you post. Thank you!
