Frank looked at the pokemon then Amanda, he grabbed Zag and climbed on back and they started moving "You know i would rather walk" he said looking and sounding confused

"Terror will get us through the forest unharmed. Isn't that what you want, boy?" T.o.a. said. "Or would you rather have us harmed? I thought you loved Amanda? Why would you desire to harm her." T.o.a laughed, because the boy looked confused. "Are you frightened of me? I will let you know that this me that is conversing with you now is the real me. This is the person I was born. The woman that you seem to be in love with is a persona that was created to hinder my growth. When you speak to me, you may call me Toa." Toa looked at the boy, who did in fact look frightened. " She's afraid, you know. Amanda. She doesn't like forests. She's never been in one - that she can remember. I used to go to the berry patch on 3 island when I was younger so I am used to seeing wild pokemon. But that creature that you are holding is the first wild pokemon that she has seen. That is why she didn't like it at first." The forest began to thin and a light appeared ahead. "I told you that Terror would get us to the edge safely. Don't doubt me, Frank - is that your name? Yes, it is. Take care of Amanda, I don't want her to keep having to hid away. I had decided long ago that my life was forfeit. I want her to live an adventurous life. Please take care of her. Me. Take care of us."
Amanda regain control of her body and slide off Terror. She felt the sun on her face as the trees gave way to a grassy field. However, to Amanda's dismay, the forest began again on the other side. "Oh, more forest. Rich was right, this is a large forest." She turned to Frank, who was still sitting on Terror. "Are you okay?" Amanda shuffled her feet, "You met Toa. She's the person that I've been talking to. You must want to leave me now. I'm just the crazy person that hears voices in her head. And not only do I hear her, she can take control of my "our" body. I'm just a freak with faulty wiring. Hehe..." Amanda laughed, trying to cover up the fact that she was crying. It didn't work well.

Frank jumped off the Terror and hugged Amanda, "you know what i think i can live with her and you," he said comferting her "I will never leave you unless it is to save your life do you understand that, do you Toa?" he asked both of them then added "Amanda have you ever flown?"

Amanda let Frank hug her, she even leaned her head against his chest."I understand that you are a caring person." said Toa. "And yes. We have flown before." Amanda quietly let Toa speak. She didn't want to talk to Frank just yet, she just wanted him to hold her. But she knew that she had t reply in her own voice, or Frank would not take them off the ground. "Y-yes." She said, "Toa's right. I have flown before. I'm not afraid of heights." She kissed his cheek. "Thank you." Amanda thought about what she was going to say next, for only a second. "I love you."

"and I love you, Toa if you could be so kind to call back your pokémon" said Frank calling out his Salamence and climbing on it's back holding out his hand when he had set Zag down "you two coming?"

Hmm... Toa thought. I feel like he said that without compassion. Amanda sighed, and took Frank's hand. "I advise that you do not call us 'you two' lest people may believe that you are crazy. Terror Return!" The large dog went back into his pokeball, as the dragon took off. Amanda wrapped her arms tightly around Frank's waist, and shrieked. She buried her head into his back, and closed her eyes.

"hey buddy, steady the flight, Toa, i will say you two when talking to both of you i could care less about what people think, Amanda are you okay?" said Frank speaking clearly to each person in question

"I'm not afraid of hei-heights..." Amanda mumbled. "I-I'm fine." She still clung to Frank tightly, keeping her eyes closed. He keeps asking that. Toa thought, annoyed. He's treating you like a child, even though you are years older. You aren't a child Amanda. You should have fun. Toa took control of Amanda's body and let go of Frank. She opened her eyes and spread her arms out like wings, then laughed. It's like I'm the one flying. Amanda thought. Toa relaxed into the recesses on Amanda's mind to enjoy the ride. Amanda giggled as she felt the wind tickle her face. "This is so fun. Thank you." Amanda said to both Frank and Toa. She leaned forward and kissed Frank's cheek.

Frank smiled and said "your welcome" he looked ahead and saw nothing but green trees. He took out his map and checked an found that they were indeed heading in the right direction to the next town with a gym he had circled them all when he bought the map of the region, "So Amanda, who is Toa?" looking up from the map and looking at her.

Amanda shrugged. "She's me, I guess. Or I'm her. I'm not sure which. She could explain it better." Amanda reached into her conscience, I don't know how to explain it. Toa said, But I will try, for you. Toa took control of Amanda's body and gasped. She had never taken this much control before. "The bracelet isn't working well enough anymore. I shouldn't be here." she turned her attention towards Frank and said to him, "My name is Amanda Kuznetzvo. That is who I was born as, and that is who I was till the day 8 years ago when I decided that my life was forfeit and took it. My body and mind were saved by the technology used by the gym leader, Blaine - I was resurrected. My soul, however, was damaged beyond medical repair. So Blaine made a new one. A persona that was the complete opposite of my original self. A happy-go-lucky trainer, much like you. That is the persona that you... know. The bracelet's main function was to keep any remaining pieces of my original soul from regrowing. But as you can see, it has failed and I am becoming my original self. Toa laughed. "And it's all your fault."

"wait what it is my fault ho- i took off the other bracelet that was it wasn't it?" said Frank looking down feeling bad "I am sorry"

The bracelet was malfunctioning anyway." Toa said taking copntrol of her body. "I've never had this much control over her." She turned her attention towards Frank. "It's your fault because you love her, Frank." Toa shock her head and sighed. I was born Amanda Kuznetzvo on Ember Island 22 years ago. When I was 13, I decided that my life was forfeit and took it. My body was sent to Blaine, who revived me. My body and mind were intact, but my soul had been shattered. So Blaine made a new one for the daughter he now had - the Amanda that you know, and love. She was the opposite of me - a happy and go-lucky trainer, much like you. The main function of the bracelet was to keep my soul, the real me, from returning and taking back my body. The reason you are to blame is that she can't love you." Toa bit her lip and sighed, "Blaine wasn't going to tell you this, because you love the Amanda he created. But I will tell you because I must. The Amanda that you know is an illusion. She is nothing more than a computer program that was created to keep a body alive. When she met you," Toa shook her head. "She did something she couldn't do. She fell in love with you. Blaine created her without... emotions. The emotions that she felt, were mine. She was treading in deep water when she visited me. She woke me up and now, she is all but disappearing."

"so wait, Amanda is going away and, you, Toa are coming back?" said Frank fear in his eyes he felt even worse Maybe i can fall for Toa she seems to be kinda like Amanda

"You seem sad"Toa said, then she bowed her head. "I am sorry I made you feel this way. I tried not to come back, but I did. It's her fault too, you know. Don't be so hard on yourself." Toa smiled like Amanda. Amanda Toa thought Come back, Amanda. He needs you. Amanda woke up and regained her body. "Frank?" She asked weakly wrapping her arms around his waist. "Are we at the edge of the forest yet?"

"No not yet, we are getting close i hope, i am sorry" he hugged Amanda thinking When will she leave and can i handle it?

"Why are you sorry?" Amanda asked. "It's not like I'm leaving or anything. How could I leave? I mean we're on a flying dragon. What am I going to do? Jump?" Amanda laughed, completely oblivious to the conversation that had happened between Frank and Toa. She hugged Frank back. "Are you okay? hehe. Now I sound like you." Shut up. Toa thought. You're hurting him. Can't you see that? "I'm hurting you?" Amanda asked Frank, surprised. She bowed her head. " You're sad. I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you sad!" Amanda looked away, and pouting. She saw ahead of where they flew and noticed the forest was starting to end. "Look's like we're going to have to land."

Frank looked up and saw the forest end he called out "Down" his pokémon deaended and landed Zag jumped off right away and waited for the other two to get down Frank slid off and turned to see Amanda or Toa jump off

Amanda tried to jump off Salamance, but she stepped on her shoelace and fell off it instead. She had, however, twisted enough so she didn't land on her face. Laying on her back she looked up at Frank, who seemed to be stifling a laugh. "Well, are you going to help me up or not?" She said smiling. She sat up and her head spun. "I guess I hit the ground harder than I thought." She closed her eyes and laid back down.

"Return" said Frank holding out a pokéball then he knelt down beside Amanda and said "Open your eyes for a minuet" She did and he check her pupils "you will be fine just sit up slowly" Frank said helping her sit up

Amanda sat up with Frank's help, then she closed her eyes again. "There is something wrong." Toa said. "I hit my head without meaning to." Toa lauhed, then went into the depths of her mind. Amanda? Where are you? I barely feel you presence anymore. Are you alright? Amanda didn't respond. Amanda?! Where are you?! Her cries were met by silence. Toa opened her eyes and looked at Frank fearfully. "I'm sorry Frank. I-I lost her. I can't find Amanda. It's like she's willed herself out of existence. And at this rate, it feels like she doesn't want to be found."

"AMANDA" Frank called hoping "If you can here me come back I love you please don't leave me Amanda" Frank held Toa hoping to get Amanda back. "Why would she do that Toa, why?" he asked threw tears that were starting to fall form his face

"I told, she wasn't meant to - oh hell, if you love her that much I try to find her." Toa said. "I may just be that, her system is shutting down. Now that I am awake, she doesn't - I need to be laid in the shade. I'd move myself, but I can't. Amanda still has control over my body. It's hard for me to even speak." Toa gasped to show how much talking was draining her of energy. "There is a bottle of liquid in Rich's care package. Don't ask questions, just help me drink it. I know that you are worried, you have every reason to be. I will get her back for you. I promise." Toa smiled. She knew this was foolish hope that she was giving him, but it was hope non the less. "I will have to be in a coma-like state. Do not move me. Do not touch me and do not try to speak to me. If you do, you may lose us both."

Frank nodded and ran over to the care bag and found the liquid and pouring it down Toa's throught "Here" was all he said before stepping back and sitting in the grass stairing at Toa and Amanda's body

"That boy knows how to pick his whiskey." Toa said licking her lips. She closed her eyes and fell into a trance. Amanda? Where are you sweetie? There is a boy here that wants to talk to you... Toa said sweetly. There was no reply. Damn it Amanda! Where the hell are you?! Toa dove deeper into her mind. Amanda?! Amanda! Toa "ran" over to the presence that she felt. A small girl, no older then 10, looked up at her. "What do you want? I was being good." Toa was amazed. This was the child soul that had been put in her body. The Amanda that Frank knew was only 8 years old. Amanda? The girl shrieked. "My name is not Amanda! That's your name! My name is Haiakatoa. (('hi' 'ah' 'ka' 'toa')) What do you want me for? You're already awake. You don't need me anymore." Toa stared at the little girl. Frank needs you. she said. Haiakatoa laughed, "No he doesn't. He needs you. You are Amanda. I am just a personification of absent thought created to preserve the body and mind a a disillusioned girl. I am no more than a computer program that was set in the bracelet around your wrist. I have served my purpose, and failed. Now I will return to the bracelet and bother you no more." The girl turned away. Toa sat down next to her and hugged her. If I take the bracelet off, will you leave me control of my own body? she asked. The girl nodded. We both need you though. Frank and I. You are what brought us together. The girl nodded again. "I know that. I don't want to leave you now. But I can't share a body with you. You are really bossy." They both laughed. What do you want me to do Haiakatoa? The girl smiled, "I have an idea."

Frank just sat and staired at one point he called out Zan and watch Zag and Zan play for a while. Then both pokémon fell asleep. The sun felt warm on his face he layed back and closed his eys I hope Toa and find Amanda, but if not i couls maybe deal with Toa, i am not sure then he dozed off
