There was this one sentace that confused me, and I think that Xanthe pointed it out earlier:
With how the story's going, shouldn't the latter sentance either end in an exclamation mark? Or switched around to say "We wronged Scytheclaw?" Since the absol (hehehe absol's ftw!) was suggesting that it was thier fault, not Scytheclaws, in his speech.
But I think that was the only thing I caught ^^ (lol, though I'm terrible at proofreading xD)

Yeah, that was meant to be the opposite. I'll have to fix it. >.<

So, moving on to the story itself: nice! :D Though it almost seemed to me that we were kind of skimming over these next few days--not really getting into much depth. But that's totally understandable, since it's making this unease grow... (we all know you're totally going to pull out a devastating surprise! :D I still think Cyclone is going to come rain on everybody's parade--probably literally... [Omigosh! That makes me want to see if he'll use his Forbidden Attack on the city if he marches his army there! >:D])

The story skimmed over all those days because nothing of much importance plot-wise was going on during them that was important enough to write in detail. The next chapter skims over several things too, and skips a little further ahead into the future. And yes, there is something big planned after Chapter 52, but of course, I'm not going to give you any hints as to what it is...

I think I might have liked to see a little more detail in the confrontation with Justin, but I really liked that Snowcrystal got the idea to talk to the humans about that. I had hoped that Spark would do something to stand up to his Trainer, but... Oh, you silly Jolteon >.< Say what you need to say! *goes off into song* "Say what you need to say... Say what you need to"
But I thought that was an interesting idea that the humans did with Snow; dying her hair? Hmm, I wonder how long that will last :o What would her kin back home think? I also have to wonder... aren't white growlithe's hair longer? I wonder if people--smart people--would notice that she has those other physical differences... But hey, I'm glad it's working so far ^^

The part with Justin
was going to be longer, but I had to cut it because of the sheer length of this chapter (which was originally chapter 51 and chapter 52 combined, which before splitting it was longer even than the Articuno chapter). And you'll see more about what Spark thinks a little later.
The other white growlithe would think it was really, really strange, certainly. And no, their hair isn't longer, it's just thicker, but not enough to be noticeably different enough to draw too much attention; like Justin (I think it was?) said, pokemon have differences between them, and to someone who doesn't know what to look for, they're probably not going to give Snowcrystal a second glance.

And yay~! Nightcloud!!! :D I was so happy to see her in there! I really had wondered what happened to her after they all escaped. It's so good to see that she has a much better life now ^^ I'm curious too to see how Rosie will react :)
|
Yeah, I had to add her in! Plus she plays a small but important role in the story in the next few chapters.

And wow, Stormblade's history :o Amazing! I would have never guessed that he was the leader of a swarm at one time! It's really sad what happened to him, though. The poor scyther never gets a break, does he? u.u STORMBLADE GET BEEEEEEETTEEEEERRRR!!!!! Hmm, you know, it might have been neat to actually have a dream or in-depth memory of his life back in the swarm--that might have made it seem more personalized, but... Wait, what am I saying? I don't know nothing! ^^' Sorry, must be that writer's workshop part of me coming out... xD

Thanks! He did have a happy life for most of the time while Bloodscythe was leader (after he overcame the sickness, of course) and before things went wrong with Boneslice. Hm...you mean like a flashback? I thought of that, but it would be hard to show the whole story without skipping around a lot, and doing that would probably make it a bit too long and with too much detail for what I had in mind. But it would definitely make an interesting short story or something!

Anyway, I'm excited to see what happens next--and I'm way anxious to hear from Cyclone and his army, now. I kinda want to see more about this Silverbreeze scyther... :o Though she had seemed cruel in Stormblade's history, that one scene with her back with Cyclone has me curious. I wonder if she'll play any future role? :o
(Goll, I need to get writing more, too ^^')

You'll see what they're up to in a little while. Silverbreeze may be cruel a lot of the time, but she still objected to Cyclone and Solus torturing pokemon (if that's the scene you mean). You'll see...
