With a bit of pain attacking the back of his head, he turned back with a hand on his head and a pained expression. "H-huh? What did I do?". Evo only shook it's cute little head as it looked at it's idiotic trainer with a deadpan look. Looking at how his best friend went in front of him, in a more big brother type of way, he moved away so he could see past Winter. Hearing Winter's rather offhand remark, Yuki's face turned into a level of disgust not seen in this world. "What kinda crap is that?! If he's so broken you should be nice to him, not him in the back of the head AND not talk behind his back like that! Just who the in Arceus's name do you think you are!?" Yuki lectured with obvious tone of annoyance. Rhys sighed a little, he knew he had to do this at one point or another, thankfully Winter didn't know about this one trick up his sleeve.
The girl behind him, Haruka, had seem to be in a state of worry until she say Rhys, visible tears in the corner of his eyes, a flushed and pink face and very, very cute yet helpess expression. "A-ah! Are you alright!?" She called out to the crying ball of endless hyperactivity. "I-I'm s-s-sorry Mister! I-I didn't mean to... b-be such a bother... Hic... I'm really sorry... I-I... promise.... Hic... I won't d-do it... again..." Rhys blubbered out in a array of fake tears which littered the ground beneath him, he had to thank his brother for the lessons in cute. He supposed that his brother's motto of "With a little smiles and tears, you can cute your way through anything.". "A-ah, no it's okay, sweetie! You don't have to cry... My friend is... just has a headache... So..." She tried to comfort the already comfortable Rhys but then gave a glare to her friend who looked a little guilty. "Um... Yeah... I shouldn't have yell at you like that... Uh... Sorry... H-hey! Why are you still crying?" Yuki panicked, who has obviously never with a crying kid before.
Rhys wasn't gonna stop the river of salty water any time soon. "i-i just... th-think... Hic... That... H-he's being.... mean... Hic... H-he... said really.... mean things..." Rhys stuttered out between the tears. Yuki, with a determined glare, he looked back at the icy-blue trainer. "Apologise to your younger brother right now! What you said was absolutely horrible!" Rhys hid his chuckles, younger brother his foot. Haruka seemed to stop for a second, looking at Rhys with strange expression. "H-huh? Wh-what is... it Miss?" Rhys turned back to stare with puppy dog eyes. The female brunnette had a sudden look of realisation. "Y-you're....CHRYS!" Rhys stopped crying, blinking a few times.
What? How did this girl know Chrys?
