~*Arrival to the city of the Sea*~
The sun shined down on the Kanto region as the clear blue sky stretched out to as far as the eye could see. Waves crashed upon the rocky cliffs where a dirt trail helped guide fellow travelers. The cool sea breeze blew onward on towards the shore were a familiar group traveled on the pathway. Ash lead the group as Misty, May, Max and Brock followed right behind.
May stretched out her arms as she sighed happily, "Its' beautiful here."
Misty nodded in agreement, "Yeah, it's a beautiful day to be along the shore."
Ash turned his head towards the group and asked, " Hey Max, is there any town's near by where we can rest?"
Max searched in his pocket until he retrieved his pokenav' and opened it. Making a beeping sound he opened a map and located the closest town.
"There's a city near by called Hylia," He looked closer at the description, "It's called the city of the sea."
"The city of the sea?" Ash said.
"What a name." Misty chimed in.
"How far is it from here Max?" May asked.
Max shrugged his shoulders, "Not that far I guess, we can get there before this afternoon, do you think so Brock?" He asked looking up.
"I think you're right." Brock answered.
"Great, then that's where we're gonna go." Ash said.
The sun was in the far east of the blue sky as the five started their walk up a small grass hill. Once they were half way May noticed a small shine from a reflection of something, it had to be a building so it only meant one thing.
"Hey I think I see a building that must be the city." She said.
The group ran the rest of the way until they got to the top of the grassy hill to finally look down towards the city.
It was enormous!
The city shined as the sun glazed upon it. It was completely surrounded by water on its own island as it supported the many buildings. The tall blue and onyx glass skyscrapers dwarfed the small buildings surrounding its outer perimeter. A fair distance away past the main island was an open coliseum, it looked to have a large seating area and in its center was nothing but water.
"Wow, look at this place." Brock said first.
"It's beautiful." May awed.
"Hey there's a stadium maybe there's a gym leader that I can have a battle with." Ash said,
Pikachu perked its ears as it stood on its trainer's shoulders.
"That's weird, I don't see anything about a battle frontier leader in this city." Max said as he looked at the pokenav'.
"Well it doesn't hurt to look, besides the city of the sea there must be awesome water pokemon there." Misty said with excitement. She held her hands up clutched into a fist as she looked down at the city with determination.
"So let's spend the night at the pokemon center." Brock suggested.
"Sounds good." Ash agreed.
There was a smaller trail that helped guide them down the hillside and towards the water, as they walked closer to shore they saw small boats lined up neatly along side. But there was no one in site, or so they thought.
"What do we do now?" Misty asked.
"Do you need a ride into the city?" A girls voice came from behind them.
As they turned towards the girl she placed her hands on her hips and smiled. She was a petite young woman, her white T-shirt was tied into a simple knot that exposed her stomach and her green shorts were faded as her shoulder length tan hair flowed with the sea breeze.
"Yes please-"
Ash started but was soon interrupted by Brock as he stepped up to the girl holding one of her hands.
"I must say a beautiful girl like you so kind and generous to give me and my friends a ride to the beautiful city. But I must say that city's beauty cannot match your-"
Misty swiftly stepped in and grabbed Brocks ear roughly as she dragged away from the now confused girl.
"C'mon I think the ocean breeze has gotten to your head." Misty sighed as she pulled him away. Brock's only reaction was to mumble in agony.
The girl could only watch in confusion as she saw Misty drag Brock away, Ash walked to her to try and get her attention.
"Sorry about that, Brock can get a little crazy sometimes." Ash said as he scratched the back of his head.
She shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "It's ok, my name is Anida."
"I'm Ash and these are my friends, Misty, May, Max, and Brock." He said, suddenly Pikachu jumped up on Ash's shoulders again. "Oh and this is my buddy Pikachu."
"It's nice to meet you all." Anida happily waved.
"Anida how come there are so many boats lined up along the shore?" Max asked.
"Well Max, I and other volunteers from the city help travelers reach Hylia by taking them in a boat. This city is well protected by the ocean and it's said that it's one of the most peaceful cities in the region. And this year it's home to one of the biggest party of the year."
"Party?" May asked.
"Yes, it's called the league prom. All across this region and others, gym leaders, elite four members of all kind unite and just have fun for a change."
"Really?" Brock said.
"Yeah, it's a big event," Anida walked towards one of the boats and signaled the group to follow, "Why don't we head on over there and I can tell you more." She started the motor as the group climbed into the mid size boat.
Anida walked to the middle of the boat were the controls were and proceeded to back up the boat until and slowly cruise until she slowly increased the speed once they were lined up towards the city.
The boat ride was close to ten minutes but the scenery of the clear blue water and the cities reflection distracted everyone, and before they knew it the boat was slowing down next to a small pier where there were three other boats the same size of the one that they were traveling in. Anida docked the boat quickly and threw a rope on to the pier as she let the group know that it was ok to get off.
As she tied the rope the group looked straight up at one of the tall buildings, as Anida finished as whipped away some sweat from her head and looked back to see the group looking straight up into the air. She laughed as they continued to stare, if they looked back anymore they would fell back into the water.
"Watch it there, you lean any more back you'll be swimming." She laughed.
They all looked back down and laughed slightly.
"This city is more amazing close up." Misty said.
"Hylia is known for it's beauty, and it's also known for being a great city when it comes to tourism. I think that's why it was picked to host this years League Prom." Anida snapped her fingers, "That's right let me show you where it's going to be held."
The walk from the pier to the hall was brief, after walking on the wood pier it lead to a concrete sidewalk where they walked along a main avenue as many cars passed by. As they turned a corner to another block, they stopped in front of a large hall that faced a beach. Palm trees surrounded the sides of the hall and leading to the door from the street was a wide red carpet. There were workers still coming in and out with furniture, glass pieces, and music equipment, four workers also worked on a sign in the front that read "The League Prom."
"Wow, what a perfect place to have a prom." Misty said.
"Yeah right along the beach." Ash said.
"The League Prom is held every two years and special cities around the Kanto, Jotho, Hoenn, and Sinnoh region are chosen to host it, and this year this city was lucky enough to be chosen." Anida explained.
"Wow." Max said.
"So when is the League Prom?" Brock asked.
Anida held up four fingers, "In four days, so everyone that's going are starting to arrive and stay at the hotel near by." She looked at a tall building not too far from the hall, it was not a glass skyscraper like the others, but it was a solid more fancy building. It looked like a fancy hotel from the start.
"Hey Anida, we saw a stadium that was separated from the city, is there a gym here?" Ash asked,
"Oh yes the coliseum. Yes there is a gym here and the gym leader is a very powerful water pokemon trainer." Anida explained.
Hearing this Misty suddenly rushed up to her, "A water pokemon trainer?"
"Yes, they clam that she's one of the best, and even though some of her pokemon may not look intimidating because of their cute look they are her strongest."
"Wow is there any way that I can see her and ask for a battle?" Ash asked,
Anida crossed her arms in thought, "I don't know, she might be getting ready for the prom but there may be a chance that you can."
"Awesome!" Ash cheered.
"Great then follow me," She waved and started to walk down the sidewalk again.
The walk was a few blocks and not far from the hall. As they crossed the street they were meet with a large round building, as they approached closer different water pokemon could be seen swimming by. They entered the building and it was like walking into an aquarium. The walls along the gym were glass that enabled everyone to see different schools of pokemon and bright colorful coral reefs.
Along the middle there was a blue carpet that lead to the main desk were a young woman was sitting.
Before they could continue walking Anida stopped, "Hey you guys, I should be going I still have some passengers that I have to take care of. Hopefully I can see you again before you leave." Anida said.
"Yeah." Max answered.
"See you soon." May added.
She waved off as she walked through the exit again as they walked to the desk, the woman looked up from her computer and greeted them.
"Hello and welcome to Hylia city's pokemon gym." She smiled.
"Hi is the gym leader here, I would like to challenge her to a battle." Ash said.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think she is having any battles till next week." The woman explained.
"Oh that's too bad." Misty said.
Suddenly from the sliding glass doors next to the desk, which entered into the gym area, came out a beautifully groomed Ninetails. As the doors closed behind it stretched out on its front legs waving its nine tails in a wave like motion.
"Wow look at that Ninetails." Max said.
"Yeah it's gorgeous!" May awed.
As Ninetails stood straight up again it looked at the group, scanning each one of them it suddenly stopped and stared at Misty and tilted its head.
"What's it doing?" Ask asked.
Pikachu jumped from Ash's shoulders and walked up to the Ninetails, the Ninetails looked at Pikachu as Pikachu talked to it briefly. Once they stopped they looked at Misty once again.
"What is it looking at me like that?" Misty asked nervously.
"Maybe it knows you?" Brock said.
Ninetails then made its approach towards Misty and sniffed her, Ninetails ears then perked up completely straight as it jumped on Misty licking her face and rubbing its head on her cheek.
As she balanced Ninetails on her as it greeted her happily she petted the pokemon, "Hey there, I don't remember meeting you." Misty said.
"Foxy!" A girls voice suddenly said.
The group turned around to see a girl walk from the glass doors, her red shirt stopped just before her waist as her blue caprees just stopped before her knees as a pokeball belt hung from her waist. Her long brown hair was pulled up into a ponytail as it swung behind her as she placed her hands on her hips.
Ninetails ears drooped down as it jumped off of Misty listening to its master's orders. She sighed as Ninetails walked up to her.
"What's the matter with you going up to strangers like that? You can scare-" However before she could finish she looked up at Misty and her face turned into complete shock.
"Wait! Don't I know you?"
Suddenly that was when Misty looked at the girl with the same surprised expression.
"I think I know you too!"
