Taking a deep breath Locket opened 'her' eyes to stare down at 'her' body. Dark blue jack, pale lavendar shirt - yup, still in Armor's body...

Sitting up in her bed, Locket looked over to Armor. He was still asleep but he needed to be awake.

The performer got out of her bed and gently shock her friend awake.

The male had to blink several time before realizing he was still in Locket's body.

"Morning sleepy head! You know what we need to do right? We need to find a way to switch back before my showcase starts! If we hurry we may possibly find a way to switch back just in time for me to go on stage. It's not like you haven't watched my routine or anything, but this showcase is extremely important to to me because it's the last one before Master Class and hopefully my last princess key!" Locket ranted. While she was talking she was running around the room grabbing her showcase outfit, Pokéball's, and backpack.

Armor got out of his bed and looked at the time.

6:20 a.m.

The showcase starts at 7:00 a.m. There's no way the two would be able to find a way to switch back in time. If Locket wanted to perform than she'd have to let Armor do it for her!

Sighing, Armor approached Locket, who was stuffing a book into her backpack.

The male turned Locket around, grabbing 'her', his, hands. He looked into 'her', his eyes.

"There's no possible way we can switch back in time. You're already registered and if we don't make it back in time you'll be disqualified. I'll go on as you and win you that key."

Locket's eye's filled relief. She knew she could count on Armor to do a good job.

"Alright, thank you!"

Locket turned to grab her showcase dress, only to keep her back to Armor, clutching it tightly.

"Is everything okay?" Armor questioned, concern filled his voice.

Locket turned around with a blush on 'her' face.

"Would you mind keeping your eyes closed so I can... change you, my body?"

Armor's face flushed profusely as he nodded. It wasn't his body anyway so why would he mind?...

When Locket began to change her bodies clothes she made sure to be extra careful. One false move and she could accidentally make Armor's eyes open. How embarrassing would that be!

Armor had 'his' eyes shut tightly as he was being redressed. It was a good thing he was taught good manners when he was younger. The male finally opened 'his' eyes when he was given the okay to do so.

"Perfect! Now let's get going!" Locket cheered with her job being over. She was about to head out the room when an arm grabbed 'hers.'

"Would you mind if I changed my bodies clothes too?"

Locket's face flushed remembering she was still in Armor's body.

"Go r-right a-ahead!" Locket stuttered. She brought 'her' hands up to sheild 'her' eyes, only to have them moved away.

"I need you to keep your arms down so I can do this quicker."

Locket simply nodded and shut 'her' eyes tightly.

Armor worked quickly to change his bodies clothes into clean ones before letting the performer know it was okay to open 'her' eyes again.

"Let's go!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Armor stood backstage ready to go on stage. On the way to the showcase Locket explained to Chespin and Meowstic everything that had happened. She made sure to tell them to listen to her male friend before heading off into the audience.

Now all Armor had to do was wait until it was 'his' turn to go onstage.

"The theme for tonight's first stage? It's Pokémon Styling!"

Pokémon Styling?! Oh boy, please give me some sort of awesome fashion sense. Armor thought to himself. He looked down to Chespin and Meowstic who were holding paws.

"Locket, Moonlight, Marine - you're all up first. Please make your way to the chambers down the hall. Remember only one Pokémon allowed on this stage."

The backstage worker smiled to Armor as 'he' headed towards a chamber with Chespin.

The spiky nut Pokémon gave Armor a reassuring smile as they entered the chamber.

The chamber had a great deal of accessories, cloth, and make-up. It was like a mini dressing room - because it was.

Through the chamber Armor could hear Pierre announce the start for him. Quickly Armor grabbed black a top and placed it on Chespin's head.

Chespin used his vhine whip to grab some face paint and brushes. He handed them to Armor who painted little sparkles and stars on Chespin's face. To finish the look Armor put a cross necklace on the spiky nut Pokémon's neck.

The chamber opened up after a minute for the two to walk out across the run way.

With smiles on their faces, Armor waved to the audience as did Chespin. The two made sure to look for Locket, but failed to find 'her.'

"Please light your glowsticks to correspond with the colors of the performers key." Pierre announced to the audience. "And on one, two, three! Cast your votes!"

The audience glowed with green, purple, and yellow lights. The lights made their way to the matching jewel on the keys the performers wore.

Pierre looked to the votes and smiled. He then looked back to the audience and announced that Locket had won.

Armor and Chespin hugged each other at their win.

One stage down, one more to go.
