[Action] Enter the sandstorm.

[travelingsandstorm]

[In the morning when Blue wakes up, Acacia lets herself out of her ball to greet her momma before the day starts. Normally, she'd go out for a bit to get some fresh air and stretch her legs before returning to the room to relax. However, today shall be a different day. A break in the cycle, if you will.

The Sandslash has been getting a little restless in her ball for some time now and finally decides that today is the day she is going to take up a human form. So, wanting to surprise her momma and little bro, she sneakily approaches the crazy headmaster to enroll as a student and acquire a transformation accessory. And, tempting as it is to make a grand and showy announcement of her presence over the network, the Sandslash decides she'd rather personally greet everybody and surprise her family and friends in the flesh. That would create a better, lasting impact, she believes. So, here you have a spiky brown haired girl roaming about the campus looking for her family and aiming to strike up a conversation with anyone interesting.

Will you unfortunately be within sight of Acacia? Approach her? Avoid her?]

[Well, look at this blue spiky hot dog vacuum. He certainly did look interesting. And, as Acacia had no real big plans for the day apart from finding Blue, she figured stopping to talk to this fella wouldn't hurt. It may even be fun.

Grabbing a soda for herself, she seated herself beside the blue hedgehog and propped her own feet up.]

Hello there. You look like a fun guy. What are you, by the way? If you don't mind me asking.

[mach_n_roll]

"Huh?" He looked at the spiky-haired girl with her feet propped up, a strange mirror-image of him, and then grins and sits up.

"Nope, I don't mind. Heck, I get that a lot around here. I'm a hedgehog! Name's Sonic, by the way. What's yours?"

[travelingsandstorm]

"Hedgehog... Interesting. I'm Acacia, a Pokemon called a Sandslash. There might even be a tiny resemblance to you with my original form." She opened her soda and took a sip.

"Nice meeting you."

[mach_n_roll]

"Nice meeting you too!"

...Wait. Sonic actually sits up when the full meaning of this gets past those head-quills of his.

"Hold up. That's not your original form? You can turn into a human?" Call it selective ignorance or just never being in the room when it's mentioned, but the idea had avoided him until now.

[travelingsandstorm]

"You can't? Isn't this school supposed to have some way to let everyone transform? I know that all of the other Pokemon here attending can do so." She turned her head and pointed at her crystal blue earring.

"See this? It's a transformation item helping me keep this form. There are other ways of becoming a human, like watches and TMs."

Staring at him for a second, she added. "Are you new here?"

[mach_n_roll]

"Naw, I'm not that new anymore... I guess I was just absent the day they were giving those things out." Which isn't impossible. He's... sort of absent a lot.

"So who do I go to, to get something like that?"
