History:

What you got there mama? A small minun boy said to his mother. He was six at the time and was desperately trying to get up onto the bed. The mother plusle giggled as his father gently scooted him onto the bed chuckling himself.

“This is your new sister. Her name’s Elise Sammie.”
Sammie blinked and frowned at the small thing with a tuff of red hair and big fat red ears. “Ah no, I wanted a baby brother, I don’t wanna sister.”
The mother smiled kindly and offered Elise for him to hold. Sammie frowned again and sighed taking her. The mother smiled again and showed him how to hold her properly. She winked at her husband the minun.

Sammie looked between the two not understanding and then back down at his new sister. The little girl opened her bright grass green eyes and giggled. She did grabby hand motions towards his face, and Sammie couldn’t help but melt himself.

“So what do you think about havening a sister now Sammie.” The father chuckled slapping his back a little. The mother frowned at him for hitting him and gave her a ‘what did I do?’ look. She sighed.
But Sammie didn’t mind as he let his new sister play with his long ears twitching in pain. His ears were sensitive, but it was okay it looks like she was having fun.

“I guess having a new sister won’t be all that bad.”

The mother beamed and rubbed her son’s head, “Well think of it this way Sammie you’ll be her big brother, she’ll look up to you.”
Sammie grinned, “Yah and I’ll make sure she’ll always be okay right…cause that’s what brother do? Right?”

The father laughed hardily “Spoken like a man!” the father slapped his back again and this time Sammie wasn’t expecting it and coughed.

“KEITH! Don’t slap him like that he’s only SIX!”
“What! What I do Ellen?”

Ellen sighed again frustrated and grumbled something under her breathe.

That’s how it went; Sammie grew up just like any other farm boy. Helping his father harvest corn, and most importantly watching over his sister seeing she was always okay. Elise followed him like a little ducklett as he worked, and when she started getting older she began helping out herself. There were other happy times too. Like how Elise would practice the piano singing or how Sammie would just practice the guitar with his dad. There were also rare moments when Ellen would sing with Keith, or Sammie would play guitar singing with Elise. Though most of the time, Sammie and their father would take a step back and instead just listen to Ellen and Elise sing because they had more of the talent.

Yes, their life was perfect, or at least that’s what the family thought.

But of course there were problems here and there. For one, what bothered Sammie the most was how many people really didn’t understand his sister because of how quiet she was and how much she day dreamed. Now at that age if someone was different, if often leads to bullying. Elise didn’t mind this much, as long as she had her Mama, Papa, and brother she’d be fine, she would always try to walk away from the dispute. But for Sammie, it drove him nuts and in many cases he often rebel in the wrong ways. A lot of time’s he’d get into school fights with the children who bullied his sister and in the end he come home with bruises and cuts with a shaking scared Elise.

His parents would try to punish him, but nothing would work. Sammie was Sammie, and he was gonna protect his sister no matter what, though Elise didn’t really want this.“Sammie, you don’t have to keep fighting people. I just want you to be there.” Elise quietly said

Sammie looked at her questionably and stopped playing the guitar “But I am there, I’m helping you by to stoping pokemon from bullying you.”

Elise sighed and shook her head “No, no that’s not what I meant.” Elise would then shake her head, seeing Sammie wouldn’t get it until he was older “Oh never mind. I think you’ll get it when you older and mellow out a little.”

Sammie would glare at his sister and say nothing, knowing what she meant. He was rebellious and rash and didn’t think things through making him childish. He would then get up and walk away not talking to Elise for the rest of the day mad, much to her dismay.

Time past and nothing seemed to change much Elise was twelve and Sammie had just turned eighteen and it was coming the time where the annual fishing trip was coming up. Where Sammie and his father went out to get fish for storage for the winter, considering the town stop selling fruits and vegetables in the cold months. Unfortunately Sammie’s father had broken his leg heaving to much corn stalk at once and he was unable to support the weight, thus the corn falling on top of him.

Sammie growled “"Come on papa, we go to Lilycove City every year to catch fish to eat for the winter. I can do it on my own, it will be fine."

Sammie at this point was in his rebellious short temper stage. Really he was a nice guy, he was just a farm boy, and was turning exactly into his father. Keith did the same things when he was his age.
Sammie wanted to prove he was old enough and responsible enough to do things on his own. Keith knew this, but he also knew his son was short tempered and rash and with that thought shook his head. But there were a lot of things that could go wrong too.

Elise was listening but was also scribbling into her music book quietly, lost in thought somewhat.
Their fathers sighed and scratch his head. "I know ya can Sammie, your eighteen, I just worry. It's not an easy trip. Three days is a long time. Not to mention haul'en all those suckers back with only the tractor. That thing is old ya know it might break down and-"

They're mother came in smiling with a bunch of cookies, unlike her husband, she didn't have a western accent. "Oh dear, please, it will be alright. It's time you trust our son. Teach him responsibility." She giggled and set the plate down and then sat on the other side of Elise.

They're father sighed "Alright fine....but ya take your sister with you, you hear? Arceous knows she is more level headed and more patient than you."

Sammie grumbled, but sighed melting to her request saying she’d like to go too.
So Sammie and Elise went, and for three day’s caught many fish for the winter, but when they returned everything was gone. The farm, the corn fields, everything was turned into ash.
Later they had found out that because of how old their house was, it burst into flames from the summer heat and burned everything. Including their mother and father, who apparently slept through it.
They both burst into tears hearing this.

After a month, Sammie and Elise moved into their grandparents house in Petalburg, where Elise steadily became more quiet than usual, she’d mumble a word here or there, but her vocabulary was decreasing none the less.

Sammie was desperate to try and get his sister to talk, but it was hard. He would try and get her to do things she loved like running or play his guitar for her. He did this to try and get his sister to not thing about their parents so much, and he also did it for himself.
In the end nothing seemed to work, she’d just sit at the window looking out to the ocean.

“You wanna do something Elise?”

“…”

“Hey you wanna play the piano, I would love to hear you sing.”

(shakes head)

“Your dead aren’t you?”

Elise ears perked and she looked over to him somewhat surprised. “no.”
Sammie’s angered flared “Yah you ARE! And ya know what I’m done, I’m done try’en to help ya sis. Cause you dead, you died with mama and papa.”

Sammie turned around angry and left, while Elise stared stricken with horror as he left. Her hand reaching out to him but fell sadly.

After that, Elise stopped talking all together and Sammie would regret it for the rest of his life.
As Elise was getting worse Sammie was slowly starting to recover. He began to work at his grandparent’s restaurant and went with through school and preparing for college. Just as Elise said too, he began to mellow out a little as well, he wasn’t as rash as he used to be, and thought about things more and he barely had a temper. Only certain things bothered him now. Four years had passed and through time Sammie had learned to live life to the fullest and be happy. He knew his parents would want that.

So Sammie went to college and such, trying to push back the problem about his sister that would sometimes come to his mind. Finding he liked his classes but didn’t really enjoy them, too distracted by his sister, that and he felt like he was doing something wrong. He loved her, he was her sister after all, but nothing could be done.

But during the holiday break, something had changed his mind, all together. He had caught his sister singing, and in that moment Sammie knew she wasn’t dead.
"That was magnificent Elise, I didn't know you still play." Sammie exclaimed bounding his way down the steps.

Elise smiled sadly and shrugged her shoulders. It then hit Sammie that his sister wasn't dead at all, just sad, lonely,...and still mourning and not talking...she needed friends and support, not from family but from others...and it was about time she shared her gift with the world. She needed something new. Where no one knew what she had gone through and to start fresh. Maybe someone could even help her open up and maybe start talking again.

"Hey Elise, how about you finish school somewhere else." Sammie said smirking. Elise perked up and cocked her head, but frowned and shook her head, her eyes were unsure. "Believe me, you'll love it there." Sammie exclaimed and took his sister hand and plopped her down at the table and printed out an Armonia application from his laptop.

Elise looked through it and cocked here head again at her brother. Her brother immediately got what she was saying.

"I found this when I was searching for colleges. I thought maybe a fresh start would help you Elise. You know, make friends...and leave the past behind you..so you can sing and feel happy again...singing reminds you of mom and dad doesn't it?" Sammie sighed just realizing this.

Elise looked down sadly and nodded and Sammie nodded too his understanding "So what you say, want to at least fill out an application and try?...I got a feeling this school will be good for you."
And it was, Sammie had gotten letters from her every week. Saying how many friends she was making. Elise just sounded happy too and not as depressed as she used to be, becoming the happy girl she used to be again. This was a very big relief to Sammie, because he felt for once, he was doing the right thing as a brother. Knowing now what his sister had meant. Sammie didn’t need to protect her from people to be there for her. He just needed to be there for her if she needed him as her brother.
Though there was still one more problem, Sammie didn’t like his college classes, hated them now actually. Didn’t like his major at all anymore, but still didn’t know what he wanted to do with his life until his grandfather caught him one day playing the guitar.

“Well why don’t you do that.” He laughed. Sammie stopped singing and playing looking down at the guitar and back to him.

“What do you mean?” Sammie asked

“Become a professional musician or guitarist or whatever.” His grandfather laughed as he looked at the clock, waving a little goodbye having to get back to the restaurant. After he left Sammie slapped his head, wondering why he was so stupid.

Unfortunately when the minun research the music major at his college he was attending, he found out it wasn’t very good, downright horrible actually. They barely had anything involving music there.
Sammie sighed wondering what he should do as he read the letter he got from his sister that week. Saying how wonderful her music class was and that a lot of the students there were musicians.
This got Sammie thinking, and after researching Armonia a little more, he found they had a wonderful music program there and that they did except older kids, like him, to graduate from there and be able to work after graduation.

The minun frowned at first, the thought of going back to high school displeased him…but he then smirked evilly, well he was actually really missing his sister, and becoming a professional guitarist was tempting. Plus the look on his sister face would be PRICELESS.
With that thought in mind, Sammie immediately filled out the application, mailed it, sent it, and waited knowing now how Elise felt for the letter to come.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personality: When comparing similarities between Sammie and Elise, you probably couldn’t tell that they were siblings besides how much they look alike. Where Elise is quiet, Sammie is loud, where Elise is careful, Sammie is bold, where Elise worries, Sammie doesn’t really worry at all. The minun loves talking to people, and making new friends and being boyish and silly. Once you get around the rough edges of his farm boy personality (like slapping peoples back really hard, being blunt and to the point, or laughing hardily with optimistic views), you’ll find Sammie to be a very caring person, a big brother persona in fact; wondering if you’re doing alright, or okay and watching you closely just in case he’s got to do something so you don’t get hurt. He especially can be a softie towards people who are shy or like his sister in anyway.

Extra/ Hobbies:
Although Sammie wasn’t born with the natural singing talent like his sister, it’s wrong to say he’s bad. He’s pretty good, not as great as his sister, but a pretty good singer none-the-less considering he use to sing a lot of duets with Elise. Plus being around two really good musicians growing up you, learn a thing or two.

What Sammie excels at most is the guitar. Not only does he play a regular guitar, he can play a base, electric guitar, and surprisingly the banjo. He dabbles a little bit in the piano as well, but all the complicate notes and such confuses him too much, which is why he prefers guitar. He likes just playing an old regular fashion guitar the most though.

Sammie carries a guitar on his back at all times, it used to be his fathers. The only reason why it didn’t burn down in the fire too was because Sammie took it with him on the fishing trip with his papa’s permission. Plus there’s always a good time to strum a tune if need be.
Loves to joke around or annoy his sister. Much to Elise’s dismay
The only things that will really get Sammie angry are if someone is making fun of or hurting his sister. But he’s not as reckless as he used to be and will try to avoid a fight if possible. This is more for Elise’s sake, considering the whole entire reason Elise hates fighting was because of his reckless fights in the past.

Sammie has many scars but you can’t see them because of his clothes. He has scars running down his back and around his shoulders and chest. The only visible scar you might catch is the scare on the back of his neck, but he usually hides that one with a collar shirt. Tells you how many fights and such he used to get into

Sammies old major in college was battling strategies in pokemon fights, which means Sammie knows a thing or two when it comes to a to a good pokemon battle. Plus because of all the fighting he used to do as a kid, he’s can hold up pretty well in a battle then normal plusle and minuns. He loves a good fun clean fight, but he’ll be hesitant to do one if his sister is around.
He caves a lot when it comes to his sister’s requests or people who act like his sister. He’s a big softie in the inside.

Sammie is a very focus person and not a dreamer like his sister. The only time he’ll get lost in thought is when he’s playing the guitar.
He’s very smart, the annoying smart (which is why he goofs off most of the time), A+ student, and doesn’t mind helping people if they need it.

Talks western, like his father, when he gets really REALLY angry

He’s obsessive about shiny things too like his sister. But doesn’t visibly show it like her.
Sammie wants to be a better big brother to his sister than he used to be, so at times you might find him stiffen depending on the situation trying not to interfere in her problems until it is absolutely necessary.

Sammie pretty much knows what Elise thinking or saying considering he knows her pretty well, probably better than any other person in fact. So a lot of the time, when he’s talking to Elise and she’s just giving him expressions to communicate with him, he’ll know exactly what she’s telling him and I mean exactly with details and all. So don’t find it weird if Sammie is telling you what she is thinking or saying and why Elise is acting some way depending on the situation.

Sammie has really sensitive ears, which means if you pull on them, it really hurts. You’ll find a lot of times Elise might pull down on them if she’s really angry at him, or is pulling him away from a really stupid situation he’s gotten himself into.

He smokes, but once in a blue moon, only when he’s really REALLY stress about things and even then he might not even smoke knowing it’s bad for you. Plus his sister would have a fit if she caught him.

Sammie might sometimes give hints here or there about their past, though he won’t tell people about their story until his sister does…well maybe it depends how close of a friend you become with him anyway.
